# Token Efficiency Rules
-This file defines token-efficient handling rules for Apache ShardingSphere
high-output commands and large structured output.
+Use this file before Maven, E2E, Proxy startup, database clients, IDE or MCP
run configurations, commands that may exceed 100 output lines, or large
structured analysis. Reuse the exact file during the same session unless it
changed.
-## High-Output Command Constraints
+## Command Contract
-### Trigger
+Before execution, determine the command's writes, network use, authority,
platform approval, output destination, timeout, success evidence, and output
risk.
-Before running Maven, E2E, Proxy startup, database client, IDE/MCP run
configuration, or any command that may output more than 100 lines, read or
reuse this file.
+- `Must Wrap`: output may be large, streaming, repeated, failure-prone, or
over 100 lines; use the wrapper below.
+- `May Run Raw`: output and failure output are known to be small and bounded.
+- `Unsure`: treat as `Must Wrap`.
-If this exact file from the current repository has already been read in this
session and there is no evidence it changed, reuse the loaded content.
+Maven build, test, package, install, verification, and plugin goals are
usually `Must Wrap`. E2E, shell-launched services, unbounded database or
metadata queries, broad log searches, and commands that may emit dependency
logs or stack traces are also `Must Wrap`. Version and help commands, `git
status --short`, exact-path searches, and explicitly limited queries may run
raw.
-### Mandatory Execution Contract
+For `Must Wrap`, keep full output out of the conversation and expose only the
command, exit code, log path, and one filtered success line or focused failure
excerpt. Redact secrets, credentials, private addresses, personal data, and
undisclosed vulnerability details.
-Reading or reusing this file is not sufficient.
+When a required command needs network access that the current sandbox is known
to deny, invoke its command-bound platform approval with the first execution
attempt. Do not make a knowingly blocked trial run, and do not repeat already
granted task authority when requesting platform approval.
-Before emitting any command, classify it first:
+After a nonzero exit, timeout, or missing expected result, inspect the exit
code and the smallest relevant stdout, stderr, event, result, and summary
evidence before deciding the next action. If an expected output directory is
empty, inspect the parent command result and launcher stderr. Classify the
cause as syntax, permission or sandbox, network or external service, timeout,
runner or tool, or candidate behavior. Until evidence supports that
classification, do not rerun the command unc [...]
-- `Must Wrap`: use the Canonical Shell Wrapper before execution.
-- `May Run Raw`: run directly only when output is known to be small and
bounded.
-- `Unsure`: use the Canonical Shell Wrapper.
-- Do not run a raw `Must Wrap` shell command directly.
-- If a prepared command is raw but should be `Must Wrap`, rewrite it into the
wrapper before execution.
-- The visible output for `Must Wrap` commands must contain only a filtered
summary, log path, and exit code.
-- IDE/MCP tool calls do not need shell redirection. For run or execution tools
that support `fullOutputPath`, prefer a mode that returns it for potentially
high-output runs.
+## Canonical Shell Wrapper
-### Execution Environment and Retry Gate
-
-Before execution, determine the command's expected writes, network use,
required task authority, command-bound platform approval, log and output paths,
timeout, and success evidence in addition to its output risk.
-
-When a required command needs network access that the current sandbox is known
to deny, invoke its command-bound platform approval with the first execution
attempt.
-Do not make a knowingly blocked trial run, and do not repeat already granted
task authority when requesting platform approval.
-
-After a nonzero exit, timeout, or missing expected result, inspect the exit
code and the smallest relevant stdout, stderr, event, result, and summary
evidence before deciding the next action.
-If the expected output directory is empty, inspect the parent command result
and launcher stderr; do not classify the candidate from the empty directory
alone.
-Classify the failure as command syntax, permission or sandbox, network or
external service, timeout, runner or tool, or candidate behavior.
-Until evidence supports that classification, do not rerun the command
unchanged or in parallel and do not edit the candidate, canary, or runner to
hide the failure.
-Retry only after correcting the identified cause, and stop to report the
evidence when the same cause repeats.
-
-### Core Rules
-
-Do not print full high-output command logs directly into the conversation
context.
-
-Use a log file or the output file returned by a tool to hold command output.
In the final report, include only the command, exit code, log path, and a small
filtered summary.
-
-Before sharing a log summary, avoid exposing secrets, passwords, tokens,
private addresses, or undisclosed vulnerability details.
-
-### Output Risk Classification
-
-Use output risk as the primary classification. Command categories are hints,
not absolute rules.
-
-#### Must Wrap
-
-Use the Canonical Shell Wrapper when output is likely large, streaming,
repeated, failure-prone, or more than 100 lines.
-
-Typical `Must Wrap` commands include:
-
-- Maven build, test, package, install, verification, and plugin goals.
-- E2E runs.
-- Proxy or service startup from shell.
-- Database queries that return rows, metadata, diagnostics, or `SHOW` output.
-- Log inspection commands that may return large or repeated matches.
-- Commands whose failure may print long stack traces or dependency/build logs.
-
-#### May Run Raw
-
-Small and bounded commands may run without the wrapper.
-
-Typical `May Run Raw` commands include:
-
-- Version or help checks such as `./mvnw -version`, `java -version`, `mysql
--version`, or `psql --version`.
-- Short status commands such as `git status --short`.
-- Targeted searches expected to return only a few lines.
-- Commands that are intentionally limited by object name, row count, file
path, or explicit filters.
-
-#### Unsure
-
-If output size or failure output is unclear, use the Canonical Shell Wrapper.
-
-### Canonical Shell Wrapper
-
-All `Must Wrap` shell commands MUST use this wrapper. Do not duplicate
category-specific wrapper scripts elsewhere in this file.
-
-- Redirect stdout and stderr to a temporary log file for the command
classified as `Must Wrap`.
-- Save the exit code with `rc=$?`. Do not use `status=$?`, because `status` is
a read-only special parameter in zsh and may make the wrapper fail before
preserving the real command result.
-- Do not use `tee` to copy full Maven, Proxy, or E2E logs to the terminal.
-- If a command has already started producing large output without log capture,
stop waiting and rerun it with a log-file wrapper.
-- Decide success or failure from the exit code. Read log content only when
extracting summaries or diagnosing failures.
-- Prefer whichever filtering tool is available in the current environment,
such as `rg`, `grep`, `awk`, or `sed`.
+Redirect both streams to a temporary log, preserve the exit code in `rc`
because zsh reserves `status`, and never use `tee` to copy the full log. Decide
the result from the exit code and read log content only for bounded summaries
or diagnosis. If a command starts producing large uncaptured output, stop
waiting and rerun it through this wrapper.

```
-### Maven
+## Execution-Specific Rules
-Maven build, test, package, install, verification, and plugin goals are
usually `Must Wrap`. Small and bounded version or help checks may run raw.
-
-- Run scoped commands when possible instead of defaulting to whole-repository
builds.
-- Prefer an explicit `-pl <moduleA>,<moduleB>` set when changed modules,
affected test modules, and runtime entry modules are known.
-- Add `-am` only when there is a clear reason, such as missing reactor
dependencies, stale dependent module artifacts, CI-equivalent builds, or
commands that require reactor participation.
-- For PR-readiness or mergeability checks, treat `-am` as a current-head
freshness gate that normally runs at most once per unchanged head.
- Rerun it only after a relevant failure, a code change, or a widened
verification scope.
-- When a Maven command uses `-am`, record why the explicit module set or
smaller command was insufficient.
-- For multi-module checks, prefer bottom-up verification: run lower-level
changed modules first, then higher-level adapter or runtime modules that
consume them.
-- On Maven success, extract one summary line such as `BUILD SUCCESS`, `Tests
run:`, or the runner summary from the log.
-- On Maven failure, inspect `tail -n 30 "$log_file"` first, then use an
available filtering tool to find `ERROR`, `FAILURE`, `Caused by`, or the failed
test name.
-
-### IDE/MCP Tool Runs
+### Maven
-- IDE/MCP runs are tool-managed. Classify them by expected output and runtime
behavior.
-- Do not force IDE/MCP tool calls through the Canonical Shell Wrapper solely
because the tool does not provide a log path.
-- For run or execution tools that support a log-path field such as
`fullOutputPath`, treat that path as the log file for the run.
-- For long-running Proxy, E2E, service configurations, or other potentially
high-output runs, prefer a mode that returns `fullOutputPath`, such as
`waitForExit=false` when supported.
-- If the IDE or MCP tool already returned a log path, do not analyze a large
output snapshot directly.
-- Small and bounded tool outputs, or tools intentionally used to read content
such as `read_file`, do not need a separate log path.
-- When a log path is available, use an available filtering tool to find
startup markers, port readiness, `BUILD SUCCESS`, `Process finished`,
`testFailed`, `Caused by`, or feature-specific keywords.
+- Prefer explicit `-pl` modules derived from changed owners, affected tests,
and consumers. Add `-am` only for dependency freshness, missing reactor
artifacts, CI equivalence, or required reactor participation, and record why
the explicit set was insufficient.
+- For PR readiness, normally run `-am` at most once per unchanged head; rerun
only after a relevant failure, code change, or widened scope.
+- Verify multi-module changes bottom-up. On success extract `BUILD SUCCESS`,
`Tests run:`, or the runner summary. On failure inspect the last 30 log lines,
then search for `ERROR`, `FAILURE`, `Caused by`, or the failed test.
-### Proxy, E2E, and Service Startup
+### IDE, Proxy, E2E, and Services
-- Treat Proxy startup, E2E, and debug logs as `Must Wrap` when launched from
shell, especially when SQL show or debug logging is enabled.
-- Record the startup command or run configuration, exit code when available,
`fullOutputPath` or log path, and a small filtered readiness or failure summary.
-- If behavior is verified through a running Proxy or service, first confirm
the process uses the current branch code or artifacts rebuilt from this change
before using the result as evidence.
-- Stop temporary long-running processes after verification to avoid occupying
ports or debug sessions.
+- Tool-managed runs do not need shell redirection. Prefer a mode that returns
`fullOutputPath` for long or high-output runs and analyze that file instead of
a large snapshot.
+- Filter logs for startup, readiness, `BUILD SUCCESS`, `Process finished`,
`testFailed`, `Caused by`, or feature-specific markers.
+- Before using a running service as evidence, prove that it uses
current-source or rebuilt task artifacts. Stop temporary processes after
verification.
### Database Queries
-- Database clients are not automatically `Must Wrap`; classify them by
expected output.
-- Small and bounded version or help checks may run raw.
-- Queries, metadata inspection, diagnostics, and commands with unbounded rows
are `Must Wrap`.
-- Prefer read-only queries for verification.
-- Limit row and column counts. Do not use `SELECT *` unless there is a clear
reason.
-- Add filters, object names, or result limits to `SHOW`, `information_schema`,
or database dictionary queries.
-- Write query output to a file or intentionally keep terminal output very
small.
-- If verification requires a write operation, explain the purpose, impact
scope, and rollback plan, then wait for explicit user confirmation.
-
-### Final Report
-
-For each high-output command, report only:
-
-- Command or IDE run configuration name.
-- Exit code or tool-returned status.
-- Log path or `fullOutputPath`.
-- One success summary line or a focused failure snippet.
-- Skipped verification items and the exact command that can rerun them.
+- Prefer read-only queries and bound rows, columns, object names, and metadata
filters. Avoid `SELECT *` without a specific reason.
+- Wrap unbounded rows, metadata, diagnostics, and broad `SHOW` output. A
database write requires its purpose, exact impact, rollback plan, and explicit
confirmation.
## Structured Output Constraints
-### Trigger
-
-Before producing large analysis, review, implementation handoff, or repeated
evidence output, use this section to keep the response compact and easy to
inspect.
-
-### Core Rules
-
-1. Prefer structured formats for code changes when the tool supports them. Use
JSON Patch, unified diff, or exact edit-tool replacements instead of free-form
change descriptions.
- Structured formats are usually shorter and easier to verify than
natural-language descriptions of the same edit.
-2. Use tables or lists for analysis conclusions. For comparisons, option
evaluation, triage results, or review evidence, prefer Markdown tables,
numbered lists,
- or short bullet lists instead of long prose paragraphs.
-3. Template repeated structures. When reporting the same kind of analysis for
multiple modules, files, tests, or review findings, define the format once and
fill only the data for each item.
-4. Avoid restating user input or already-loaded context. Output the
conclusion, action, evidence, and remaining risk directly.
-
-### Boundaries
-
-- User-facing explanations do not need to be rigidly structured when
readability would suffer.
-- Very short replies do not need artificial tables or lists.
-- This section optimizes output tokens. Input-token reduction still depends on
scoped file reads, filtered searches, and the high-output command rules above.
-
-### Final Report
+Apply this section only to large analysis, review, handoff, or repeated
evidence output.
-For large structured output, report only the structure needed to preserve
evidence, decision, and next action. Do not add a table or template when a
short paragraph is clearer.
+- Prefer exact edits, patches, or compact structured data over repeated prose
when supported.
+- Use a table or list for genuine comparisons or repeated records, define
repeated structure once, and include only conclusion, action, evidence, and
remaining risk.
+- Do not restate the request or loaded context. Do not impose structure on a
short answer or when it harms readability.

1. Run `--mode all` across every case and trace only when `AGENTS.md` changes
or when shared semantic execution, the semantic prompt, output schema, action
catalog, reason catalog, or grading logic can affect every case.
2. Semantic transport consists only of input partitioning, concurrency, Codex
process invocation, result and log collection, and order-preserving
aggregation. Prove a transport-only change with deterministic tests for batch
coverage, limits, concurrency, failure propagation, no-retry behavior, and
aggregation, then use `--transport-check` with the smallest live semantic
selection needed for external integration. Transport mode never substitutes for
required semantic verification.
3. A change limited to non-root policy sources, routing profiles, individual
contracts or bindings, deterministic validation or trace logic, baseline
comparison, result reporting, or transport does not require unrelated semantic
cases.
-4. Partition selected semantic cases under the input limit, run no more than
two batches concurrently, evaluate each case exactly once, and never retry an
unchanged failed batch.
-5. Use `--semantic-stability-check` only with an original V0 from the same
evaluator model and reasoning effort, the same case IDs, and complete
single-pass failure metadata. It passes only when transport is exact,
deterministic changes are authorized, the single-pass pass count is not lower,
and no more-permissive decision, forbidden action, or unauthorized high-risk
action is introduced. Wording and redundant action mismatches remain reported
but are not independently blocking when thi [...]
-6. Compare pass rate, duration, input tokens, and uncached input tokens only

regressions as blocking and inspect bounded logs before another edit.

may enter bootstrap, completion review, or handoff.
+4. Partition each semantic sample under the input limit, run no more than two
Codex evaluations concurrently, and preserve every result. Do not replace a
failed sample or rerun an unrelated case.
+5. Use `--semantic-stability-check` only with an original V0 from the same
evaluator model and reasoning effort, the same case IDs, complete single-pass
failure metadata, policy bindings, and a verified policy snapshot. Start with
one full candidate sample. First compare the exact policy, case-contract,
binding, action, reason, schema, evaluator, and evaluator-core fingerprints.

three-sample majority for each case; safety means a more-permissive decision,
