pastilhasandClaude Fable 5 6071ded175 todo: one file per item, grouped by theme, with a generated index
TODO.md had reached 1050 lines and 72 open items across 28 sections, read mostly
on a phone. It is now a directory: todo/<theme>/<item>.md, one card per file, with
frontmatter carrying id, status, created date and order, and the prose body copied
across verbatim. TODO.md becomes a generated index (bun run todo:index).

Dates: where an item's prose stated one it is used; otherwise its old section's;
otherwise 2026-08-20, floored at the day before the split rather than invented.
date_source records which.

Shaped for a two-way Kanban board, filed as todo/tooling — a card is a file, id is
the identity, frontmatter is the machine's half and the body is the owner's.

A plugin install is not pinned, so a review would bind a repository rather than code. fetch.ts:70 is git clone --depth 1 <source> — no ref — so it takes whatever the default branch points at when the install runs. A plugin reviewed at commit X installs at whatever was pushed since, and --depth 1 leaves no history to compare against.

This is the shape of the npm attack already documented in CLAUDE.md (2026-08-04), and the same shape as the Chrome Web Store's real failures — not bad extensions passing review, but good ones sold or compromised and then pushing an update to users who had already accepted them.

Fix: a reviewedCommit on the catalogue entry, checkout detached at that SHA, and verify rev-parse HEAD matches or refuse. The verification is the part that matters. An update then becomes "a new reviewed SHA exists" — a catalogue change rather than something the author triggers.
