Summary

  • OpenAI shipped a new flagship family (gpt-5.6-sol / gpt-5.6-terra / gpt-5.6-luna) superseding GPT-5.5, verified against primary OpenAI docs. Updates the cross-model-reviewer guidance every consumer repo inherits from this one.
  • 6 live-guidance files updated to GPT-5.6 Sol (fallback: Terra) at xhigh: AI_SETUP_LANES.md, README.md, CLAUDE_CODE_SDLC_WIZARD.md, both SKILL.md copies, AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md. Historical citations (README.md:151, CLAUDE_CODE_SDLC_WIZARD.md:113) intentionally untouched — regression-tested to stay that way.
  • Adds a documented (non-default) escalation to max/Pro mode for unusually risky PRs in AI_SETUP_LANES.md's Final Review Policy.
  • 8 new per-location regression tests in test-doc-consistency.sh, mutation-verified against 4 distinct swap scenarios (Sol→Terra, Terra→Luna, gpt-5.6-solgpt-5.6-terra, and a GPT-5.6 SolGPT-5.7 Sol version-bump probe) — not just an aggregate "mentions 5.6 somewhere" check.

Review history

  • Fable (fresh instance): clean, one nit fixed (stale comment claiming a bash nameref where the code actually uses echo + command substitution — bash 3.x/macOS has no namerefs).
  • Codex (GPT-5.6 Sol, xhigh) — 3 rounds to CERTIFIED:
    • Round 1: 2 P1s found and fixed — (a) the new escalation paragraph made 2 pre-existing lines stale (both still called xhigh "the highest" tier); (b) the new tests only checked for the 5.6 substring, passing under a demonstrated Sol→Terra or Terra→Luna swap.
    • Round 2: found the round-1 test fix still passed a GPT-5.6 SolGPT-5.7 Sol mutation (checked for Sol but not 5.6 together) — fixed by requiring both together.
    • Round 3: CERTIFIED, no further findings.

Test plan

  • tests/test-doc-consistency.sh: 67/67, RED confirmed before edits, GREEN after
  • Mutation-tested against 4 swap scenarios, all caught precisely at the mutated line
  • Full test suite sweep before/after — no regressions (only the known pre-existing test-persist-score-history.sh fixture fragility, unrelated to this change, already tracked separately)
  • Fable review (clean, 1 nit fixed)
  • Codex xhigh (Sol) cross-model review, 3 rounds to CERTIFIED

OpenAI shipped a new flagship family (gpt-5.6-sol / gpt-5.6-terra /
gpt-5.6-luna) superseding GPT-5.5. Updates the reviewer-model guidance
inherited by every consumer repo: AI_SETUP_LANES.md, README.md,
CLAUDE_CODE_SDLC_WIZARD.md, both SKILL.md copies, AGENTS.md, and this
repo's own CLAUDE.md now name GPT-5.6 Sol (fallback: Terra) at xhigh,
with historical citations to GPT-5.5/5.4 left untouched.

Adds a documented (non-default) escalation to max/Pro mode for
unusually risky PRs in AI_SETUP_LANES.md's Final Review Policy, and 8
new per-location regression tests in test-doc-consistency.sh —
mutation-verified against Sol/Terra/Luna swaps and a version-bump
scenario, not just aggregate "mentions 5.6 somewhere" checks.

Reviewed by Fable and Codex (GPT-5.6 Sol, xhigh) across 3 rounds to
CERTIFIED.
