refactor(education): resolve the view medium through the shared resolver #12682

Description

@kyle-sexton

Parent

Source: PLAN Phase 9, topic planning-chain-consolidation. Epic: #12646.

Depends on

Outcome

education:teach and education:illustrate resolve their medium through the shared resolver CLI and print the report line, naming no medium values themselves; their evals match.

Demo: Run education:teach on a sample: it prints the report line; the skill text lists no medium values.

The Brief (Problem, Goal, Constraints) is in the epic body.

Decisions

  • Q14: medium moves onto ADR 0075 scopes; ~/.claude/rendered-views.md is no longer read.
  • Q17: One fallback chain; every view lane names the medium used and the fact that decided it.
  • Q52: AC15 covers every view lane, planning chain first.

Key interfaces

Contracts

resolveMedium(request) -> Resolution
request:    lane, argument?, userConfig?, projectRoot?, teamRef?
Resolution: preferred?, medium, decidedBy, notices[]
Rules: the argument decides alone. Each scope's own value is read separately (cascade file reader
and schema check, not resolve()'s merged output; team file optionally from teamRef). terminal/file
from any scope keeps the view local. Else the first publishing value from a trusted scope wins:
personal override (untracked and gitignored only), then userConfig. With no scope deciding, the
plugin default applies (trusted: the installed plugin); "any scope" never includes the plugin default. A team file never publishes; an invalid value is ignored without dropping another
scope's value; auto equals unset. Retired files (~/.claude/rendered-views.md,
.claude/rendered-views*.md) produce notices, never values.
CLI: view-settings resolve --lane <id> --option <user_config.medium> [--argument <m>] [--team-ref <ref>]

MediumEntry   { id, publishes, reachable(context) -> {ok, reason}, deliver(view, context) -> {location}, reportName }
SurfaceEntry  { id (terminal | page | shared-session; a shared-session variant is a new entry),
                available(context) -> {ok, reason}, start(session) -> handle, reportName }
ViewKindEntry { id, parse(record) -> data, template, tier }
Lane registration: { laneId, kinds[], hostedCapable }
Fallback chain (medium registry): artifact, file, terminal; hosted read as artifact unless hostedCapable.
Skills call resolveMedium, render(laneId, kind, record), resolveSurface; they never name a medium,
surface or kind value in their own prose.

Report line: view: <medium> (<decidedBy>), plus one line per notice.

PageInput { kind: lock | unlock | comment, recordId, choiceId?, optionId?, text?, at }
- untrusted data; the session reads only these fields; a lock is written to the record, never approval
- delivery: file via the session bridge; terminal via the conversation; Artifact via a
  "Copy choices as prompt" control (existing runtime copy binding) the owner pastes; the page says
  live lock needs the local page
- unhandled input is collected at the start of the owner's next message

Redraw binding: a choice names the example blocks it selects; client-only, no network, no storage.

Done when

  • AC4 / AC7 / AC15: a git grep for an enumerated medium list in the education plugin's skills and evals finds none; the education evals validate with no FAIL; no model evals are run.

Out of scope

  • Other plugins
  • Vocabulary fixes (vocabulary slice)

    This records a re-fire of an earlier refusal, not a new refusal. The lanes kill switch stopped run 41577394473, the work-resolve-issue run that agent-ready started, before it did any work; that run ended at 2026-11-03T04:43:39Z. work-unblock has now removed and added agent-ready back to start a fresh run. A kill-switch refusal is no fault in this issue or the lanes, so it never counts against later re-fires; after limits.limit-stops-per-issue of them since a person last added agent-ready or a run last reported, work-unblock waits longer before each one, up to 24 hours.

    The work-resolve-issue run that agent-ready started waited in its slot past a change to its lane workflow files on main, so it stopped before any model turn. The run's report-outcome removed and added agent-ready back to start a fresh run on main's workflow files. If this run ends the same way, it re-fires the issue again, waiting longer each time.
