  • 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-dir with 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 .gitignore to 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.
