 We call a repository that is compatible with homesick to be a 'castle'. To act as a castle, a repository must be organized like so:
 
-* Contains a 'home' directory
-* 'home' contains any number of files and directories that begin with '.'

+## Docker Behavior Validation (Ruby vs Go)
+
+To preserve behavior while migrating from Ruby to Go, this repository includes a containerized behavior suite that runs Homesick commands in a clean environment and validates filesystem and git outcomes.
+
+The suite creates a dedicated git repository inside the container to act as a test castle fixture, then validates behavior for:
+
+- clone
+- link / unlink
+- track
+- list / show_path
+- status / diff
+- version
+
+Run against the current Ruby implementation:
+
+    ./script/run-behavior-suite-docker.sh
+
+Show full command output (including internal Homesick status lines) when needed:
+
+    ./script/run-behavior-suite-docker.sh --verbose
+
+This runner now builds an Alpine-based container and installs runtime dependencies with `apk`, so behavior validation is not tied to a Ruby base image.
+
+Run against a future Go binary (example path):
+
+    HOMESICK_CMD="/workspace/dist/homesick" ./script/run-behavior-suite-docker.sh
+
+The command under test is controlled with the `HOMESICK_CMD` environment variable. By running the same suite for both implementations, you can verify parity at the behavior level.

-* Make your feature addition or bug fix.
-* Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
-* Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history.  (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)

+Build the Go binary:

+Run behavior validation against the Go binary:

 Your home directory is your castle. Don't leave your dotfiles behind.
 
-Homesick is sorta like [rip](http://github.com/defunkt/rip), but for dotfiles. It uses git to clone a repository containing dotfiles, and saves them in `~/.homesick`. It then allows you to symlink all the dotfiles into place with a single command.
+This repository now contains a Go implementation of Homesick. A dotfiles repository is called a castle and should contain a `home/` directory with files to link into your `$HOME`.
 
-We call a repository that is compatible with homesick to be a 'castle'. To act as a castle, a repository must be organized like so:
+## Build
 
-- Contains a 'home' directory
-- 'home' contains any number of files and directories that begin with '.'
+Build with just:
 
-To get started, install homesick first:
+```bash
+just go-build
+```
 
-    gem install homesick
+Or directly with Go:
 
-Next, you use the homesick command to clone a castle:
+```bash
+go build -o dist/homesick-go ./cmd/homesick
+```
 
-    homesick clone git://github.com/technicalpickles/pickled-vim.git
+## Commands
 
-Alternatively, if it's on github, there's a slightly shorter way:
+Implemented commands:
 
-    homesick clone technicalpickles/pickled-vim
+- `clone URI [CASTLE_NAME]`
+- `list`
+- `show_path [CASTLE]`
+- `status [CASTLE]`
+- `diff [CASTLE]`
+- `link [CASTLE]`
+- `unlink [CASTLE]`
+- `track FILE [CASTLE]`
+- `version`
 
-With the castle cloned, you can now link its contents into your home dir:
+Not yet implemented:
 
-    homesick link pickled-vim
+- `pull`
+- `push`
+- `commit`
+- `destroy`
+- `cd`
+- `open`
+- `exec`
+- `exec_all`
+- `rc`
+- `generate`
 
-You can remove symlinks anytime when you don't need them anymore
+## Behavior Suite
 
-    homesick unlink pickled-vim
+The repository includes a Docker-based behavior suite that validates filesystem and git outcomes for the implemented commands.
 
-If you need to add further configuration steps you can add these in a file called '.homesickrc' in the root of a castle. Once you've cloned a castle with a .homesickrc run the configuration with:
+Run behavior suite:
 
-    homesick rc CASTLE
+```bash
+just behavior
+```
 
-The contents of the .homesickrc file must be valid Ruby code as the file will be executed with Ruby's eval construct. The .homesickrc is also passed the current homesick object during its execution and this is available within the .homesickrc file as the 'self' variable. As the rc operation can be destructive the command normally asks for confirmation before proceeding. You can bypass this by passing the '--force' option, for example `homesick rc --force CASTLE`.
+Verbose behavior suite output:
 
-If you're not sure what castles you have around, you can easily list them:
+```bash
+just behavior-verbose
+```
 
-    homesick list
+## Testing
 
-To pull your castle (or all castles):
+Run all Go tests:
 
-    homesick pull --all|CASTLE
+```bash
+just go-test
+```
 
-To commit your castle's changes:
+## License
 
-    homesick commit CASTLE
-
-To push your castle:
-
-    homesick push CASTLE
-
-To open a terminal in the root of a castle:
-
-    homesick cd CASTLE
-
-To open your default editor in the root of a castle (the $EDITOR environment variable must be set):
-
-    homesick open CASTLE
-
-To execute a shell command inside the root directory of a given castle:
-
-    homesick exec CASTLE COMMAND
-
-To execute a shell command inside the root directory of every cloned castle:
-
-    homesick exec_all COMMAND
-
-Not sure what else homesick has up its sleeve? There's always the built in help:
-
-    homesick help
-
-If you ever want to see what version of homesick you have type:
-
-    homesick version|-v|--version
-
-## Docker Behavior Validation (Ruby vs Go)
-
-To preserve behavior while migrating from Ruby to Go, this repository includes a containerized behavior suite that runs Homesick commands in a clean environment and validates filesystem and git outcomes.
-
-The suite creates a dedicated git repository inside the container to act as a test castle fixture, then validates behavior for:
-
-- clone
-- link / unlink
-- track
-- list / show_path
-- status / diff
-- version
-
-Run against the current Ruby implementation:
-
-    ./script/run-behavior-suite-docker.sh
-
-Show full command output (including internal Homesick status lines) when needed:
-
-    ./script/run-behavior-suite-docker.sh --verbose
-
-This runner now builds an Alpine-based container and installs runtime dependencies with `apk`, so behavior validation is not tied to a Ruby base image.
-
-Run against a future Go binary (example path):
-
-    HOMESICK_CMD="/workspace/dist/homesick" ./script/run-behavior-suite-docker.sh
-
-The command under test is controlled with the `HOMESICK_CMD` environment variable. By running the same suite for both implementations, you can verify parity at the behavior level.
-
-## Go Scaffold
-
-Initial Go scaffolding now lives under [cmd/homesick](cmd/homesick) and [internal/homesick](internal/homesick).
-
-Build the Go binary:
-
-    just go-build
-
-Run behavior validation against the Go binary:
-
-    HOMESICK_CMD="/workspace/dist/homesick-go" just behavior-go
-
-At this stage, the Go implementation includes a subset of commands (`clone`, `list`, `show_path`, `status`, `diff`, `version`) and intentionally reports clear errors for commands that are not ported yet.
-
-## .homesick_subdir
-
-`homesick link` basically makes symlink to only first depth in `castle/home`. If you want to link nested files/directories, please use .homesick_subdir.
-
-For example, when you have castle like this:
-
-    castle/home
-    `-- .config
-        `-- fooapp
-            |-- config1
-            |-- config2
-            `-- config3
-
-and have home like this:
-
-    $ tree -a
-    ~
-    |-- .config
-    |   `-- barapp
-    |         |-- config1
-    |         |-- config2
-    |         `-- config3
-    `-- .emacs.d
-        |-- elisp
-        `-- inits
-
-You may want to symlink only to `castle/home/.config/fooapp` instead of `castle/home/.config` because you already have `~/.config/barapp`. In this case, you can use .homesick_subdir. Please write "directories you want to look up sub directories (instead of just first depth)" in this file.
-
-castle/.homesick_subdir
-
-    .config
-
-and run `homesick link CASTLE`. The result is:
-
-    ~
-    |-- .config
-    |   |-- barapp
-    |   |     |-- config1
-    |   |     |-- config2
-    |   |     `-- config3
-    |   `-- fooapp        -> castle/home/.config/fooapp
-    `-- .emacs.d
-        |-- elisp
-        `-- inits
-
-Or `homesick track NESTED_FILE CASTLE` adds a line automatically. For example:
-
-    homesick track .emacs.d/elisp castle
-
-castle/.homesick_subdir
-
-    .config
-    .emacs.d
-
-home directory
-
-    ~
-    |-- .config
-    |   |-- barapp
-    |   |     |-- config1
-    |   |     |-- config2
-    |   |     `-- config3
-    |   `-- fooapp        -> castle/home/.config/fooapp
-    `-- .emacs.d
-        |-- elisp         -> castle/home/.emacs.d/elisp
-        `-- inits
-
-and castle
-
-    castle/home
-    |-- .config
-    |   `-- fooapp
-    |       |-- config1
-    |       |-- config2
-    |      `-- config3
-    `-- .emacs.d
-        `-- elisp
-
-## Supported Ruby Versions
-
-Homesick is tested on the following Ruby versions:
-
-- 2.2.6
-- 2.3.3
-- 2.4.0
-
-## Note on Patches/Pull Requests
-
-- Fork the project.
-- Make your feature addition or bug fix.
-- Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
-- Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
-- Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.

Subject: [PATCH 055/162] feat(rc): implement rc command with .homesick.d
 script execution

- App.Rc runs all executable files in <castle>/.homesick.d in sorted
  (lexicographic) order with the castle root as cwd
- Non-executable files are skipped
- stdout/stderr from scripts forward to App writers
- If .homesickrc exists and parity.rb does not yet exist in .homesick.d,
  a Ruby wrapper (parity.rb) is generated before execution
- Existing parity.rb is never overwritten
- Wire rcCmd in CLI with optional CASTLE argument (defaults to dotfiles)

+- `rc` command: when a `.homesickrc` file exists and no `parity.rb` wrapper is present in `.homesick.d/`, a Ruby wrapper script (`parity.rb`) is generated automatically to preserve backwards compatibility. An existing `parity.rb` is never overwritten.
 - Native Go implementations for `clone`, `link`, `unlink`, and `track`.

 - CLI help description now reflects Homesick's purpose for managing precious dotfiles.
 - Release notes standardized to Keep a Changelog format.
 - Release preparation and next-tag recommendation automation now invoke `vociferate`'s standalone `releaseprep` implementation with explicit gosick paths.
+- `commit` command now accepts legacy positional form `commit <castle> <message>` in addition to `-m`.

+- `pull --all` output now includes per-castle prefixes to match behavior expectations.

 - CI validation now runs `gosec` and `govulncheck` security scanning on push and pull request workflows.
+- `cmd/homesick` now includes entrypoint-focused tests that exercise both the CLI run path and `main` process path.
 - `rc` command: executes all executable scripts inside a castle's `.homesick.d/` directory in sorted order, with the castle root as the working directory. stdout/stderr from each script is forwarded to the caller.

 ### Changed
 
 - Release automation now uses `aether/vociferate` `prepare` and `publish` actions (pinned to `v1.0.0`) instead of repository-local releaseprep wrappers.
+- Push and pull request validation now enforce per-package coverage gates (fail below 50%) and publish package-level coverage status tables in workflow summaries.
 - CLI argument parsing migrated to Kong.
 - Git operations for clone and track migrated to `go-git`.
 - Build and behavior workflows now produce and run the `gosick` binary name.

+- Security hardening: file and directory creation now uses restrictive permissions (`0o750` for directories, `0o600` for files) instead of world-accessible defaults. Executable wrapper scripts are created with restricted permissions and then explicitly made executable via `chmod`.
+- Security: `Open()` now executes the editor directly without shell intermediary to prevent injection through the `$EDITOR` environment variable.
+
 - CI validation now runs `gosec` and `govulncheck` security scanning on push and pull request workflows.
 - `cmd/homesick` now includes entrypoint-focused tests that exercise both the CLI run path and `main` process path.
 - `rc` command: executes all executable scripts inside a castle's `.homesick.d/` directory in sorted order, with the castle root as the working directory. stdout/stderr from each script is forwarded to the caller.

 ### Changed
 
+- Dependencies updated to resolve security vulnerabilities: `cloudflare/circl` to v1.6.3, `go-git/v5` to v5.17.0, `golang.org/x/crypto` to v0.49.0, and `golang.org/x/net` to v0.52.0.
 - CI workflows now include explicit caching for Go modules, build artifacts, and security tool binaries to reduce pipeline execution time.
 - Security hardening: file and directory creation now uses restrictive permissions (`0o750` for directories, `0o600` for files) instead of world-accessible defaults. Executable wrapper scripts are created with restricted permissions and then explicitly made executable via `chmod`.
 - Security: `Open()` now executes the editor directly without shell intermediary to prevent injection through the `$EDITOR` environment variable.

Subject: [PATCH 121/162] chore(ci): replace manual security tools with
 marketplace actions and add go fmt check

- Replace `go install` of gosec/govulncheck with secureCodeBox/gosec-action and golang/govulncheck-action
- Actions handle their own caching; remove explicit security tools cache step
- Add code formatting check using `go fmt ./...` to reject pushes/PRs with incorrect formatting
- Formatting check runs before security scanning for faster feedback

Subject: [PATCH 132/162] ci(pr-validation): replace manual badge/gate logic
 with vociferate actions

- Remove manual changelog validation shell script
- Remove AWS CLI install and jq tooling steps
- Remove hand-rolled SVG badge generation, S3 upload, and PR comment steps
- Replace with coverage-badge@v1.1.0 for coverage artefact upload
- Replace with decorate-pr@v1.1.0 for PR comment and changelog gate
  (enable-changelog-gate: true, changelog-gate-mode: strict)
- Retain per-package coverage gate awk logic (Aether threshold enforcement)

 ### Added
 
+- `internal/homesick/version`: added `version_test.go` covering the `String` constant and semver format validation.
+- `internal/homesick/cli`: added targeted tests for `list`, `generate`, `clone`, `status`, and `diff` CLI commands; coverage raised from 62.5% to 71.2%.
+- `internal/homesick/core`: added `helpers_test.go` covering `runGit` pretend mode, `actionVerb`, `sayStatus`, `unlinkPath`, `linkPath`, `readSubdirs`, `matchesIgnoredDir`, `confirmDestroy` responses and read errors, `ExecAll` empty-command and no-repos-dir edge cases, and `Link`/`Unlink` default-castle wrappers; existing suites extended with `New` constructor and `PullAll` quiet-mode tests; coverage raised from 75.6% to 80.2%.
+- PR validation now uses `vociferate/coverage-badge@v1.1.0` for coverage artefact upload and `vociferate/decorate-pr@v1.1.0` for PR comment decoration and changelog gate enforcement.

 ### Changed
 
 - CI security scanning now uses GitHub Marketplace actions (`securego/gosec` and `golang/govulncheck-action`) instead of manual tool installation, improving reliability and caching.

Subject: [PATCH 134/162] ci: replace gosec action with direct invocation, pin
 govulncheck to v1.0.4

Per security scanning requirements in project instructions:
- Replace securego/gosec@v2.22.3 action with go install + gosec run step
  in both push-validation and pr-validation to avoid compatibility issues
  with Go 1.26.1
- Pin golang/govulncheck-action from @v1 to @v1.0.4 in both workflows;
  major-version tags do not resolve reliably in Gitea API
- Move GOTOOLCHAIN=auto from per-step env to job-level env in both workflows
- Bump coverage-badge in push-validation from v1.0.1 to v1.1.0

 ### Changed
 
+- `gosec` security scanning in CI now invoked directly via `go install + gosec ./...` instead of the `securego/gosec` action, resolving compatibility issues with Go 1.26.1.
+- `golang/govulncheck-action` pinned from `@v1` to `@v1.0.4` in push and PR validation; major-version tags do not resolve reliably in Gitea API.
+- `GOTOOLCHAIN=auto` moved from per-step env to job-level env in push and PR validation workflows.
+- Push validation `vociferate/coverage-badge` bumped from `v1.0.1` to `v1.1.0` for version consistency with PR validation.
+- README badge link target updated to `actions/runs/latest?workflow=...` format per workflow standards.
 - CI security scanning now uses GitHub Marketplace actions (`securego/gosec` and `golang/govulncheck-action`) instead of manual tool installation, improving reliability and caching.
 - CI setup compatibility fix: gosec scanner now references the correct public action source (`securego/gosec`), resolving action clone failures in Gitea runners.
 - CI security scanner compatibility: gosec and govulncheck action steps now set `GOTOOLCHAIN=auto` so repositories requiring newer Go versions are analyzed successfully.

 - `GOTOOLCHAIN=auto` moved from per-step env to job-level env in push and PR validation workflows.
 - Push validation `vociferate/coverage-badge` bumped from `v1.0.1` to `v1.1.0` for version consistency with PR validation.
 - `vociferate/prepare` and `vociferate/publish` in `prepare-release.yml` and `tag-build-artifacts.yml` bumped from `v1.0.1` to `v1.1.0` for cross-workflow version consistency.
+- `golang/govulncheck-action` in push and PR validation now passes explicit `go-package`, cache enablement, and `cache-dependency-path` inputs to match the required workflow pattern.
+- CLI/core wiring now injects `stdin` through `core.NewApp`, `main` owns the `GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0` side effect, and `Rc` force handling is passed per call instead of mutating shared app state.
 - README badge link target updated to `actions/runs/latest?workflow=...` format per workflow standards.
 - CI security scanning now uses GitHub Marketplace actions (`securego/gosec` and `golang/govulncheck-action`) instead of manual tool installation, improving reliability and caching.
 - CI setup compatibility fix: gosec scanner now references the correct public action source (`securego/gosec`), resolving action clone failures in Gitea runners.

 - `vociferate/prepare` and `vociferate/publish` in `prepare-release.yml` and `tag-build-artifacts.yml` bumped from `v1.0.1` to `v1.1.0` for cross-workflow version consistency.
 - `golang/govulncheck-action` in push and PR validation now passes explicit `go-package`, cache enablement, and `cache-dependency-path` inputs to match the required workflow pattern.
 - CLI/core wiring now injects `stdin` through `core.NewApp`, `main` owns the `GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0` side effect, and `Rc` force handling is passed per call instead of mutating shared app state.
+- Core filesystem and git error paths now wrap underlying failures with command-specific context across listing, generation, tracking, linking, rc hook execution, and destroy confirmation flows.
 - README badge link target updated to `actions/runs/latest?workflow=...` format per workflow standards.
 - CI security scanning now uses GitHub Marketplace actions (`securego/gosec` and `golang/govulncheck-action`) instead of manual tool installation, improving reliability and caching.
 - CI setup compatibility fix: gosec scanner now references the correct public action source (`securego/gosec`), resolving action clone failures in Gitea runners.

+- PR validation badge upload now runs only when `coverage.out` exists, preventing downstream badge artefact failures while still allowing PR decoration to run on failed jobs.

 - Push and PR validation workflows now share a `concurrency` group keyed on the branch name (`github.ref_name` / `github.head_ref`) with `cancel-in-progress: true`; when a push to a PR branch fires both workflows, the second run cancels the first so only one validation executes per commit.
 - Push validation now performs an open-PR branch check via the Gitea API and skips the heavy validation job when the branch already has an open PR, preventing duplicate full pipeline runs.
+- Push validation open-PR detection is now POSIX-shell compatible (no bash-only `pipefail`/array/`[[ ... ]]` usage), fixing failures on runners that execute `run` scripts with `/bin/sh`.
+- PR validation now checks that `coverage.out` exists before invoking `coverage-badge`; when missing, badge upload is skipped with a summary note instead of failing the workflow.
+- PR decoration is now `continue-on-error` to avoid hard-failing validation when the external `decorate-pr` action's internal extractor step is unavailable.
 - README badge link target updated to `actions/runs/latest?workflow=...` format per workflow standards.
 - CI security scanning now uses GitHub Marketplace actions (`securego/gosec` and `golang/govulncheck-action`) instead of manual tool installation, improving reliability and caching.
 - CI setup compatibility fix: gosec scanner now references the correct public action source (`securego/gosec`), resolving action clone failures in Gitea runners.
