fix: prevent catch-up agent crashes with surgical git-based checks#3
Conversation
Replace dangerous full-project scans with targeted git diff checks: - Remove automatic test suite and build execution - Replace filesystem scans with git diff --name-only HEAD~1 - Scope TODO/FIXME search to recently modified files only - Keep status document limit at 5 per user preference - Remove excessive safety comments for cleaner code This prevents Claude Code crashes caused by scanning massive codebases or triggering expensive build/test operations. 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Fixes catch-up agent that was causing Claude Code instance crashes by replacing dangerous operations with surgical git-based checks.
Problem
The catch-up agent was crashing Claude Code sessions due to:
Solution
Replaced dangerous operations with surgical, git-based checks:
git diff --name-only HEAD~1instead of full codebase scanChanges
src/claude/agents/devflow/catch-up.md: 9 insertions, 39 deletionsTesting
Impact
The agent retains its validation philosophy but now executes safely without risking Claude Code crashes.
