Four libs written in one pass rather than four sequential splits, which
is what stops the libs chaining - the entry gets one source block naming
all four and no lib sources a sibling.
steam_compatibility.sh is reverted and stays at 663. Its CACHE_MAP
associative array is declared and filled in what would be the ProtonDB
lib but read by main, so that lib fails SC2034 linted alone. Third file
deferred for the same reason: shared mutable state means the seam is not
there.

organize_downloads.sh 513 -> 72, setup_kcd2_dice_solver.sh 497 -> 112,
fix_ubuntu_performance.sh 494 -> 150. First 490+ line scripts done; all
three needed two or three seams.
Repeated splitting chained the libs - each sourced the next, because the
tool inserts its source line relative to the file it just wrote.
Flattened so the entry sources all three and no lib sources a sibling.
diagnose_pacman_hook_stall.sh is reverted and stays at 493. Its
transaction runner assigns LAST_ELAPSED that the caller reads and reads
PACMAN_BIN that the caller defines, so linted alone it is SC2034 plus
SC2153. The pre-commit hook lints each lib in isolation and fails, while
shellcheck -x on the entry passes - suppressing that would be papering
over a seam that does not exist.
organize_downloads.sh is the ExecStart of media-organizer.service; the
unit still resolves and the script still parses.

10-recon.sh, install_exercism.sh, fix_arch_performance.sh,
format_sd_card.sh, setup_dot_resolver.sh, fix_unity.sh and
20-dump-stock.sh, all now under the cap.
Splitting a file twice is the risky move: the second cut on
20-dump-stock.sh dropped the first cut's source line, leaving
verify_dump called but never defined, and the repair then landed the
line inside the lib instead of the entry script. Both fixed - the entry
sources both libs and no lib sources another. Grep the source lines
after any double split.
fix_unity.sh's desktop_dir is read across the seam; renamed to
DESKTOP_DIR to match the file's own convention for globals.

install_unreal_mcp.sh 395 -> 155, diagnose_arch_performance.sh 377 ->
123 (two cuts), setup_local_llm.sh 370 -> 163, repo_to_study.sh 365 ->
160, setup_dwm.sh 359 -> 147.
The SCRIPT_DIR fix from the last batch held on all five. Fixed a second
unguarded cd, this time before the study-material generator ran - the
same latent bug class as build_website, surfaced because a moved
function gets linted in isolation.

setup_syncyomi.sh 408 -> 138 (two cuts), setup_personal_website.sh
396 -> 192, fix_thorium.sh 377 -> 208.
All three already declared SCRIPT_DIR and the splitter added a second
one, which aborts at runtime with "readonly variable" while bash -n and
shellcheck stay clean. The stubbed run caught it; the splitter now
reuses an existing declaration.
Fixed SC2164 in build_website rather than suppressing it: a bare
cd "$WEBSITE_SRC" inside a subshell, with pnpm install and pnpm run
build after it. A failed cd would have built in the caller's directory.

The shellcheck hook ran with --severity=warning, so info- and style-level
findings never failed a commit. 222 had accumulated across 94 of 244 shell
files. They were not all style noise -- six were bugs:
- Five scripts in single_use/misc/testsAndMisc-bash/ sourced
$SCRIPT_DIR/../../lib/common.sh, one directory too shallow. Nothing exists
at that path, so all five failed at runtime.
- setup_personal_website.sh and setup_kcd2_dice_solver.sh called usage()
(which ends in `exit 0`) and then `exit 1` for an unknown command. The
exit 1 was unreachable, so a typo'd subcommand reported SUCCESS.
- Six i3blocks scripts had a `# shellcheck source=` directive missing the
scripts/periodic_background/ path segment. The stale path had silently
disabled source-following for all of them.
- diagnose_arch_performance.sh word-split a newline-joined file list; when
the find came back empty, awk got no file operands, fell through to
reading stdin, and the diagnostic hung.
- lib/common.sh's handle_arg_help_or_unknown ended in an unreachable
`return 0` while documenting "Returns: 0 if handled" -- a contract no code
path could satisfy.
- deploy.sh's SCRIPT_DIR is reassigned by config.sh, which it sources at top
level, and config.sh can repoint it at the on-device path
/data/local/tmp/focus_mode. Renamed to DEPLOY_DIR.
The SC1091 bulk (81 findings) was resolved rather than silenced: .shellcheckrc
sets external-sources + source-path=SCRIPTDIR so sourced files are actually
followed and analysed. That is what surfaced the i3blocks and deploy.sh bugs.
17 `# shellcheck disable=` directives remain, each with a written reason, and
only where the finding is provably wrong: injection-test payloads that must not
expand, literal source text being grepped for, POSIX sh scripts on the phone
where arrays do not exist, and source paths that only exist at runtime.
Everything else was fixed in code.
Verified in a CLEAN worktree, not just my own tree. config.sh sources the
gitignored config_secrets.sh, which exists locally but not in a fresh checkout;
a working-tree-only check passed while ci_mirror.sh -- which lints HEAD in a
clean worktree, exactly as CI does -- failed on it.
The gate is verified to bite: a file whose only finding is SC2016 (info) fails
the hook, while the old --severity=warning gate exits 0 on it.
third_party/ is excluded -- vendored upstream, matching the prettier hook.
Not fixed, reported: check_polling_antipatterns.sh carries a pre-existing
SC2034 disable that hides a real bug -- its `patterns` array is never used, so
the checker detects nothing. Confirmed unchanged by this commit.

pacman intermittently freezes at its FIRST PreTransaction hook - 5 abandoned
transactions since 2026-07-29, stalls of 4 minutes to overnight, always fine on
retry. This investigates it and repairs the real defects found on the way.
The stall is NOT fixed, and deliberately so: no verified defect was found, so
nothing pacman-side was changed.
- Not guard-lib. /etc/guard-lib/targets was empty, so that hook script
provably exits in milliseconds. The failures share POSITION (first hook of
the transaction), not identity: one stall hit the hosts hook back when that
one ran first.
- Not reproducible on demand. 65 real transactions (40 idle, 25 under 2.6 GB
of memory pressure) produced zero stalls. Against the historical 4-in-56
rate that is ~0.9% likely, so the trigger is conditional on something a
synthetic load does not recreate. Memory pressure is untested at the load
that actually occurred - not refuted.
So diagnose_pacman_hook_stall.sh drives real transactions with a watchdog, and
its --watch mode passively captures /proc/<pid>/{stack,wchan,syscall}, the
process tree, meminfo and PSI from the next REAL stall. No pacman-side fix
should ship before that dump exists.
Three real defects were found and fixed:
1. The deployed pacman wrapper was 19916 B against a 27510 B source, never
sourcing the shared pacman_lock_lib.sh that makepkg_wrapper already used.
It hid because check_pacman_wrapper() only tested that files EXIST. Both
installers now write a drift manifest covering source AND installed hashes;
the checker replays it with sha256sum -c and fails closed when it cannot
verify. Manifest paths are absolute - relative ones resolve to nothing under
systemd's cwd=/ and would have looped reinstalling forever.
2. The guard-lib migration (66c4698) was never finished here: guard-lib was
installed with zero registered targets while the legacy hosts-guard layer did
all the work, so every transaction ran two PreTransaction hooks and the first
one did nothing. migrate_hosts_guard_to_guard_lib.sh registers hosts,
nsswitch and resolved, retires the legacy hooks and units, and has a
--rollback that was actually exercised. Plugins install to a stable path
because guardctl records absolute plugin paths. Side effect: one hook pair
instead of two, transactions ~5-6s -> ~2-3s.
3. "One heavy job at a time" was a rule a human had to remember. heavy_job_lock.sh
makes the overlap impossible: one system-wide flock shared between root and
the user (a per-user lock would give root's pacman and the user's builds
separate locks and no exclusion at all). Wired into pacman TRANSACTIONS only
- read-only queries stay instant - plus makepkg_capped and the coverage hook.
Always fails open.
Two bugs surfaced only by running --rollback, both of which briefly left
/etc/hosts with no immutable flag: fg_uninstall clears +i on its way out while
legacy watchers only fire on PathModified, and `((i > 20)) && break` left the
loop body's status at 1, which under set -e aborted the rollback silently - but
only when the loop actually ran, so --dry-run looked healthy.
Not migrated: the shutdown-schedule guard (/etc/shutdown-schedule.conf does not
exist here). Not wired: Flutter/Gradle builds, which have no single entry point.

`git commit`/`git push` export GIT_DIR to every hook they run, and the
flutter tool shells out to git to identify its own SDK. `git -C
"$FLUTTER_ROOT" rev-parse HEAD` in bin/internal/shared.sh does not beat an
inherited GIT_DIR -- `-C` only changes directory, GIT_DIR overrides
repository discovery outright:
$ git -C /opt/flutter rev-parse HEAD
058e0af2c2... <- Flutter's HEAD
$ GIT_DIR=~/diet-guard/.git git -C /opt/flutter rev-parse HEAD
84bd550331... <- diet-guard's HEAD
So inside a hook, flutter reports the project as the SDK:
Flutter 3.47.0-0.1.pre • channel main • https://github.com/kuhyx/diet-guard
pub then resolves the SDK as 0.0.0-unknown and every version constraint
becomes unsatisfiable. flutter also writes that into its own version cache,
so the wrong answer outlives the hook and follows the next caller into an
unrelated repository -- which is why the identical command passes when you
re-run it by hand and fails again on the next push.
diet-guard's pre-push gate hit this today. Clearing the variables per call in
each hook works, and screen-locker and diet-guard now do, but only for as
long as every future hook author remembers -- deployment hygiene, not a fix.
This installs a wrapper ahead of /usr/bin on PATH that strips them for every
caller in every repo, covering both flutter and dart. It removes its own
directory from PATH before exec so the Flutter entry point's internal `which
flutter` cannot loop back into it, and it verifies itself by running flutter
against a throwaway poisoned GIT_DIR and failing unless the real SDK comes
back.
Not patching bin/internal/shared.sh: that file belongs to the flutter-bin
package, so the next update would silently restore the bug. Upstream already
unsets these variables in content_aware_hash.sh and update_engine_version.sh,
just not in the version path.

- Fix CONFIG_DIR depth in setup_periodic_system.sh and check_and_enable_services.sh
- Update all references in tests, fresh-install/main.sh, nix modules, and docs
- Fix check_polling_antipatterns.sh false positives (||, regex |, case patterns, jq strings)
- Fix pre-existing mypy exclusion path and type annotations for moved tools/ directory
- Rewrite check_polling_antipatterns.sh using awk (no bash regex loops); add require_serial: true
