…-md026.py tool Markdownlint flagged MD032 (blanks-around-lists) on docs/research/memory-optimization-under-identity-preservation-2026-04-26.md:168. Applied via tools/hygiene/fix-markdown-md032-md026.py (the tool from PR #542 cherry-picked locally since #542 hasn't merged to main yet — eating the dogfood per Otto-346: when the tool exists, USE the tool rather than inline Python). Composes with Otto-346 (recurring=missing-primitive — the tool is now the substrate-primitive that absorbs this pattern). 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)

Pull request overview
Adds a checked-in hygiene tool under tools/hygiene/ to mechanically fix recurring markdownlint issues (MD032 blanks-around-lists, MD026 no-trailing-punctuation), replacing repeated one-off /tmp / heredoc scripts.
Changes:
- Add
tools/hygiene/fix-markdown-md032-md026.pyCLI with--dry-runto apply MD032 + MD026 transformations. - Implement basic list/continuation detection and heading punctuation stripping.

…ygiene tools (Aaron 2026-04-26 ask) Aaron 2026-04-26: *"we need to move the typescript migration of our scripts to higher priority so you will stop trying to write python and shell code lol ... our post install code"* + *"pre install code still has to go to the user where they live shell and windows powershell"* The recurring `python3 << 'PYEOF'` heredocs and bash scripts I keep writing in `tools/hygiene/` are POST-install tools that belong in TypeScript per the migration plan. The tools shipped this session (PR #539/#541/#542) are interim — they absorb recurring patterns NOW per Otto-346 but should rewrite to TS once the sibling-migration guardrail unblocks. Pre/post-install scope clarification (Aaron 2026-04-26): - Pre-install scripts (tools/setup/install.sh, devcontainer bootstrap): MUST stay shell + PowerShell — that's what's available before Bun installs - Post-install scripts (tools/hygiene/, tools/git/, dev-time tooling): TARGET = TypeScript via Bun The distinction is structural. docs/POST-SETUP-SCRIPT-STACK.md already encodes the rationale; this priority bump operationalizes it. Two changes in this commit: 1. B-0015 priority P3 → P2; moved to docs/backlog/P2/; scope expanded to cover sibling tools/hygiene/* and tools/git/*; pre/post-install distinction captured 2. B-0027 (just-filed) updated with implementation-target note: TypeScript not Python; wait for sibling-migration guardrail or use exception-label pattern Composes with: docs/POST-SETUP-SCRIPT-STACK.md, Otto-346 (recurring pattern absorption — but absorb in the right language), Otto-341 (mechanism over discipline; the migration IS the mechanism), B-0015 (existing TS-migration row). 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)

…pattern extracted to substrate primitive (Otto-346) Aaron 2026-04-26: *"in python shape should be a queue that we are missing substrate primitives"* — the meta-principle from the prior tick. I'd been carrying this fix as `/tmp/md_fix.py` and re-typing it across multiple drain ticks. Each instance was the same shape: - MD032 (blanks-around-lists): insert blank lines before/after list blocks where missing - MD026 (no-trailing-punctuation): strip trailing `:` `!` `?` from ATX headings Per Otto-346 candidate principle (recurring dynamic = signal of missing primitive), extracting to `tools/hygiene/` as a properly-tooled script is the right shape. Composes with: - `tools/hygiene/sort-tick-history-canonical.py` (PR #541) — sibling extraction from same Otto-346 principle - `tools/hygiene/check-tick-history-order.sh` — same architectural pattern (proper tools in `tools/hygiene/`, not inline heredocs) - markdownlint-cli2 in CI gate.yml — this tool produces input the linter accepts; the linter is the detection - Otto-341 (mechanism over discipline) Self-tests: - `--help`: documents - `--dry-run` on README.md: "OK: no changes needed" (idempotent) - Type-hinted, argparse, exit codes Use in queue-drain context: when CI markdownlint fails on a PR with MD032/MD026 violations: ``` git checkout <branch> python3 tools/hygiene/fix-markdown-md032-md026.py path/to/file.md git add -A && git commit && git push ``` Replaces the recurring inline-Python pattern that prior ticks used. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)
…ile exit code + P1 list-marker coverage + P2 trailing-whitespace MD026 — six findings from #542 review Six findings from Codex/Copilot review (PR #542 thread feedback; left-unresolved by drain subagent for code-author follow-up): **P0 (Copilot)** — fix_md032 mutated lines starting with `- ` / `1. ` INSIDE fenced code blocks, treating shell-flag lists or numbered-step examples as real Markdown lists. Inserted blank lines into code examples → corrupted user content. Fix: added `_classify_lines()` that tracks fenced-code-block state (``` and ~~~ openers; matching close on same char class with len ≥ open_len). Both fix_md032 and fix_md026 skip lines inside fences. Test verifies: `- this is shell flag` inside ```bash`...``` is preserved untouched. **P0 (Copilot)** — missing-file errors didn't affect exit code. fix_file() returned (False, 0) on missing path, indistinguishable from clean no-op; main() printed "OK: no changes needed" and exited 0. Drain scripts and CI couldn't detect typoed paths. Fix: added FileNotFoundForFix exception; fix_file() raises it instead of swallowing; main() tracks any_error flag and returns exit 1 (suppressing misleading OK message). Test verifies: typo → "ERROR: file not found" + exit 1. **P1 (Copilot)** — _LIST_LINE only matched `- ` and `\d+\. `; missed `* ` and `+ ` CommonMark unordered markers. Repo has MD004 disabled so all three markers exist in committed files. Fix: regex extended to `[-*+] ` character-class. Test verifies: `* unordered with star` and `+ unordered with plus` both recognized. **P2 (Codex)** — fail-fast on missing input file (covered by P0 fix above; same change addresses both findings). **P2 (Copilot)** — _HEADING_WITH_PUNCT failed to match headings with trailing whitespace after the punctuation; `## Title: ` left unfixed. Fix: regex now `^(#+ .+?)([.,;:!?]+)\s*$` — allows optional trailing whitespace AND extends punctuation set to markdownlint default `.,;:!?`. Test verifies: trailing-whitespace heading fixed. Smoke-test on contrived input file (heading-with-colon, list with missing blanks, fenced-code-block with `- ` shell flags, *-and-+ list markers, missing-file CLI test) shows all five fixes working as intended without regression. Composes with Otto-341 (mechanism over discipline; the lint check is the detection, this tool is the fix), Otto-346 (recurring dynamic Python = signal substrate primitive missing; this fix hardens the primitive), Otto-324 (mutual-learning advisory AI catching real bug class; both Codex and Copilot caught real substrate-corrupting bugs).

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The MD032 list regex ^( )*([-*+] |\d+\. ) does not cover all valid Markdown list prefixes: it rejects list items indented by 1 or 3 spaces and ordered items using ) (for example 1) item). In those cases fix_md032 treats real lists as plain text, reports no changes, and leaves MD032 violations unresolved in automation runs. Please broaden the matcher to the full CommonMark list-prefix forms.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The fence detector uses ([^]*)for the info-string portion, so it fails to recognize valid~~~fences whose info string contains a backtick. When that happens,_classify_lines` marks fence contents as normal markdown and the MD032/MD026 passes can rewrite lines inside code examples, which corrupts fenced code content instead of preserving it.

CI markdownlint flagged 2 MD032 errors in B-0033 backlog row. Fixed mechanically via tools/hygiene/fix-markdown-md032-md026.py (the tool shipped in PR #542 — first downstream use of the substrate primitive). Net diff: +2 bytes (2 blank lines inserted around list blocks). Otto-346 composition: this is a happy-path demonstration that the substrate primitive (PR #542) works on the recurring pattern that inspired it. The fix-markdown tool catches what would otherwise require inline Python heredocs (recurring pattern Otto-346 forbids).

Fix: replaced backtick-delimited `: ` and `+ ` with descriptive text 'colon-then-space \`:\`+space' and 'plus-then-space \`+\`+space' — readers still see the literal characters explicitly, but no backtick-delimited substring contains the boundary space that triggers MD038. Idiomatic markdown for 'inline code that contains a space character' is to either escape the space with a non-breaking-space sequence OR to describe the literal characters in prose; the latter is clearer for documentation.

Applied via tools/hygiene/fix-markdown-md032-md026.py (the tool from PR #542 cherry-picked locally since #542 hasn't merged to main yet — eating the dogfood per Otto-346: when the tool exists, USE the tool rather than inline Python). Composes with Otto-346 (recurring=missing-primitive — the tool is now the substrate-primitive that absorbs this pattern). 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code)

Summary
Per Aaron's 2026-04-26 meta-principle: "in python shape should be a queue that we are missing substrate primitives."
The MD032/MD026 mechanical fix had been recurring across drain ticks as
/tmp/md_fix.pyheredocs. Per Otto-346 candidate principle (recurring dynamic Python = signal of missing primitive), the right home istools/hygiene/checked into substrate.What this is
tools/hygiene/fix-markdown-md032-md026.py— proper tool replacing inline heredocs::!?from ATX headingsComposes with
tools/hygiene/sort-tick-history-canonical.py(PR feat(hygiene): tools/hygiene/sort-tick-history-canonical.py — substrate-built-in instead of dynamic Python #541) — sibling extraction from same Otto-346 principletools/hygiene/check-tick-history-order.sh— same architectural patterntools/hygiene/check-no-conflict-markers.sh— same architectural pattern.github/workflows/gate.yml— this tool is the fix; linter is the detectionWhat this DOES NOT do
