chameleon 2.56.0
Added
- Deep-work hires experts and manages its own worktree defensively. The
skill's dig is now staffed, not solo: a "Hire experts (dispatch discipline)"
section makes parallel subagents the default posture whenever two or more
independent unknowns exist - read-only code scouts, version-pinned web
researchers, and a fresh-context reviewer at verification - each dispatched
with one owned question, the context it cannot discover alone, and a
required answer shape. An expert's answer is input, not truth: every claim
a decision rests on is verified first-hand before it enters the brief (new
brief checkbox), and hired agents return evidence only - the brief decides.
Step 3's external research gains a depth ladder (pinned-version docs, then
the changelog across the exact version window, then the installed package's
own source; a blog post is a lead, never a citation). Step 5's worktree
setup was rewritten against empirically tested git behavior (both
corrections refuted the guidance it was adapted from, live on git 2.50.1):
detect an existing linked worktree by comparing
git rev-parse --path-format=absolute --git-dirwith the common dir (the
raw-output comparison false-positives from a subdirectory, and a plain
submodule does NOT produce the mismatch), use an existing worktree only
when it is dedicated to the task, honor a user-declared placement above any
tool default, never edit the user's.gitignoreto make a placement work,
and run a dependency-install + gate baseline before the first edit so
Step 6 attributes new failures (inherited ones are reported, not fixed).
Worktree infeasibility is triaged as a rule-2c hard dependency at Step 1,
and the failure report covers the no-worktree-created case.

Note: the /chameleon-deep-work skill itself and the docs overhaul shipped in
v2.55.0; this release refines that skill.
