  "title": "Split setup_midnight_shutdown.sh under the 250-line cap",
  "objective": "Bring the last over-cap file (1734 lines) under 250 by moving its 20 real top-level functions into eight libs and its largest quoted heredoc into a verbatim payload, without altering any of the scripts it generates into /usr/local/bin.",
  "acceptance_criteria": [
    "check_file_length.sh --all reports zero files over the cap, with the payloads git-tracked.",
    "Every heredoc body is byte-identical before and after, except the one deliberately moved to a payload file whose hash matches it exactly.",
    "verify_shell_split.sh shows no unexplained body change; the -log entry is a known heredoc-internal false positive and must be justified, not ignored.",
    "--help is byte-identical to the pre-split baseline.",
    "shellcheck passes without -x, shfmt is a no-op, no suppression added."
  ],
  "out_of_scope": [
    "Running `setup`: it installs systemd units, chattr +i's the config and arms a shutdown timer.",
    "Rewriting the deployed /usr/local/bin scripts — unnecessary, since the generated content is provably unchanged.",
    "Phase 2 (wiring the cap into pre-commit), which starts only once the cap is at zero."
  ],
  "verifier": "Per-file heredoc body hashing before vs after (the decisive check); verify_shell_split.sh with the -log entry explained; line-multiset check including the payload; diff of --help; shellcheck + shfmt + check_file_length --all."
