Brought every code comment in line with the no-comments rule now adopted in CLAUDE.md.

Before and after, comment lines per directory

Directory Before After
src/ 89 29, all one-line citations
.github/ 32, all excluded CI template and shebang lines unchanged
install.sh, eslint.config.ts, .husky/, configs 0 unchanged
docs/ did not exist, gitignored adr_auto_update_security.md, comment_salvage.md

The 29 remaining src/ lines are 5 SemVer section citations and 24 one-line pointers to docs/adr_auto_update_security.md. The added-comment self-test from the rule prints nothing on this branch.

Bucket counts, 80 logical comments

Bucket Count
Restates the code or its rationale, deleted 41 logical, 45 lines
Commented-out code 0
TODO or FIXME 0
Cited external fact, kept compressed to one line 5 logical, 7 lines to 5
ADR-backed constraint, kept as one-line docs/ citation 24 logical, 27 lines to 24
Uncited external fact, moved to docs/comment_salvage.md 10 logical, 10 lines

Moved to docs/comment_salvage.md

Each entry names its file and symbol: clack select narrowing in editor.ts resolveEditor and git.ts selectWorktree; POSIX setsid, synchronous Bun.spawn throw, Bun.spawnSync null exit code, and the probe stream marker in auto-update.ts; file.exists() throwing on stat errors and EACCES in config.ts; EBUSY/ETXTBSY meanings in fs-utils.ts classifyWriteError; keep-alive socket pinning in release.ts withTimeout.

Kept in code, with citation

SemVer 2.0 section 11 in release.ts comparePrereleaseIdentifier and comparePrerelease; sections 11.4.1, 11.4.3, 11.4.4 in release.test.ts. ADR sections 2 to 5 across release.ts host pinning, redirects, caps, checksums, and parser hardening; auto-update.ts staging, probe, and sidecar integrity; update.ts pre-unlink, probe, and stage invalidation; release.test.ts rate-limit retryability.

New docs

docs/adr_auto_update_security.md records the threat model, host pinning, size caps, checksum taxonomy, staging integrity, and throttle policy that the removed comments described. docs/ now ships because I removed its line from .gitignore, which previously ignored the whole directory.

Exceptions to flag

Two deviations from a pure comment-only diff. First, removing the '// ignore' comment left an empty catch block in release.test.ts teardown, which fails eslint no-empty, so I added a trailing 'return;', a provable no-op and the last statement of the callback. Second, .gitignore lost its docs/ line, without which the ADR and salvage doc could not ship. Everything else in the diff is comment or blank lines only.

Verification

Prettier check passes, tsc --noEmit passes, eslint passes, bun test passes 96 of 96. No changeset, since nothing user-visible changed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Auto-update now runs for commands where flags are used as values, such as create my-feature -h.
    • Background update failures now provide a clearer error message and point to troubleshooting logs and the WORKTREE_NO_UPDATE=1 option.
  • Documentation

    • Added documentation describing the auto-update security model and related operational safeguards.
    • Added a reference guide for behavioral details previously captured in code comments.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds auto-update security documentation, enforces a stricter comment policy, replaces inline explanations with citations, and adjusts meta-invocation matching and background-update error reporting.

Changes

Auto-update documentation and policy

Layer / File(s) Summary
Security and comment-policy documentation
CLAUDE.md, docs/adr_auto_update_security.md, docs/comment_salvage.md
Defines the comment policy, documents auto-update security controls, and records facts removed from source comments.
Update invocation and background-check handling
src/index.ts, src/commands/update.ts, src/lib/auto-update.ts, src/lib/config.ts
Updates meta-invocation matching and background-check failure reporting. Removes explanatory comments and adds ADR references where required.
Comment policy application
src/lib/release.ts, src/lib/release.test.ts, src/lib/editor.ts, src/lib/git.ts
Removes explanatory comments and replaces selected comments with specification or ADR references. Test assertions remain unchanged.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 01f11

This change documents auto-update protections and enforces a stricter comment policy, but the policy check can be bypassed and the update-security documentation can overstate verification for foreground installs. These are bounded documentation and enforcement issues, with no identified runtime regression in the reviewed implementation.

Poem

A rabbit reads the security guide,
Then trims each comment down with pride.
The checks record each hidden clue,
The update paths report errors too,
And clean docs keep the code beside.

Important

The new security ADR overstates the URL and credential protections currently enforced; align the documented contract with the implementation before merging.

Reviewed changes I reviewed the complete three-commit comment-policy cleanup at 01f11a9, including the source edits, new documentation, repository tracking change, and test-only no-op.

  • Comment policy Replaces the prior guidance with a strict no-comments rule and an automated diff check for uncited additions.
  • Source cleanup Removes explanatory comments and converts retained SemVer and auto-update constraints to one-line citations.
  • Updater documentation Adds an accepted ADR for host pinning, redirects, size limits, checksum handling, staging integrity, and throttling, plus a salvage file for uncited implementation facts.
  • Repository and test adjustments Tracks docs/ and adds a final return to keep the teardown's formerly commented empty catch lint-clean without changing behavior.

Inline comments:
In `@CLAUDE.md`:
- Around line 54-57: The policy-check commands in CLAUDE.md must fail closed for
added comments within the exported-symbol scope: correct the one-line /** ... */
exclusion so its end anchor matches the line end, and replace the
whitespace-dependent, whole-line citation filtering with comment-aware matching
that detects adjacent comments such as x=1#..., call();//..., and URL/string
cases without allowing bypasses. Preserve the intended exclusions only when they
are positively validated.

In `@docs/adr_auto_update_security.md`:
- Around line 5-8: Update the ADR’s self-hash claim to apply only to background
staging: note that verifyAssetAgainstSums may return hash: null when SHA256SUMS
is absent, allowing src/commands/update.ts to install without hash verification,
while the background path hashes before writing its sidecar. Clarify that §5
also covers foreground updates.

In `@src/commands/update.ts`:
- Line 180: Update the ADR citation immediately before cleanupStagedArtifacts()
and recordCheckCompleted() to reference both §5 and §6, preserving the existing
citation while adding the section that defines the 24-hour throttle behavior.

Reviewed changes I reviewed the a58e56b follow-up since the prior Pullfrog review and rechecked the complete PR diff in context.

  • Host and credential contract Narrowed ADR section 2 to the URL.host validation, same-host scheme behavior, credential stripping state, and refusal logging that withTimeout actually enforces.
  • Checksum fallback contract Scoped self-hashing without SHA256SUMS to background staging and documented that the foreground updater proceeds without hash verification after notifying the user.
  • Throttle citation Extended the foreground post-install citation to cover both staged-update invalidation and the 24-hour completion throttle.
