Problem

The behavior-verifier brief shows only unstaged changes. A programmer that deletes files with git rm stages the deletions, so the verifier does not see them and fails a criterion that the code meets.

Observed

In implementation 134 (#1266), git status --short showed D for plugins/os-me/lib/os_me/decision_model.rb and six files under plugins/os-me/lib/os_me/decision_model/. The behavior-verifier (dispatch 1146) reported: "code_changes shows no deletion of plugins/os-me/lib/os_me/decision_model.rb ... The session git status shows these as staged deletions, so the brief diff probably omits staged changes". It gave verdict fail on acceptance criterion 10. The same brief had no test_changes.

Reproduce

n/a: needs a pipeline run where the programmer stages a deletion; seen once in implementation 134.

Origin

  • Trigger: os-sdlc implement #1266, implementation 134, dispatch 1146
  • Improvised this session: the orchestrator gave the verifier the git status and grep output by SendMessage on the same dispatch; it then passed.
  • Chain: verifier fail on AC10 ← brief diff omits staged deletions ← Git::Repo#changed_paths runs plain git diff --name-only (skeptic, 2026-10-23), and Git::Diff diffs a path missing from the index with --no-index against /dev/null, which is empty. Stop at DESIGN (Git::Repo#changed_paths).
  • Root candidate: none found; searched staged, diff, code_changes, test_changes, behavior-verifier, Brief::Facts, changed_paths, git rm
  • Where: os-sdlc behavior-verifier brief assembly (code_changes, test_changes)
  • Session: 4f3f95ea-3c6f-4d23-a0ea-e349d6ab02a5

VERDICT: CREATE

## Problem The behavior-verifier brief shows only unstaged changes. A programmer that deletes files with `git rm` stages the deletions, so the verifier does not see them and fails a criterion that the code meets. ## Observed In implementation 134 (#1266), `git status --short` showed `D ` for `plugins/os-me/lib/os_me/decision_model.rb` and six files under `plugins/os-me/lib/os_me/decision_model/`. The behavior-verifier (dispatch 1146) reported: "code_changes shows no deletion of plugins/os-me/lib/os_me/decision_model.rb ... The session git status shows these as staged deletions, so the brief diff probably omits staged changes". It gave verdict fail on acceptance criterion 10. The same brief had no `test_changes`. ## Reproduce n/a: needs a pipeline run where the programmer stages a deletion; seen once in implementation 134. ## Origin - Trigger: os-sdlc implement #1266, implementation 134, dispatch 1146 - Improvised this session: the orchestrator gave the verifier the `git status` and `grep` output by SendMessage on the same dispatch; it then passed. - Chain: verifier fail on AC10 ← brief diff omits staged deletions ← `Git::Repo#changed_paths` runs plain `git diff --name-only` (skeptic, 2026-10-23), and `Git::Diff` diffs a path missing from the index with `--no-index` against `/dev/null`, which is empty.
