The buglog was one 27K-line JSON file whose fields covered only symptom,
root cause and fix, as free text: 2% of entries named the code version a
bug was found on, 12% the build profile, 36% a way to reproduce, and 58% of
the file was OpenWolf hook auto-detections ("Missing guard clause",
"Function not marked async" on .md files).
- .claude/skills/buglog/bug-record.md: the record standard. Eight
sections (Summary as the title, Description, Environment, Reproduction;
Root cause, Fix, Verification, References once fixed), each with the
content it must contain -- e.g. Environment needs the OS, the libc the
failing binary loads (from its ELF interpreter: glibc 2.42 in the nix
shell vs 2.40 on the host), toolchain, build profile and commit.
- .wolf/bugs/<id>.md: 500 records migrated from buglog.json; every field
verified to round-trip. They carry legacy: true and an explicit "not
recorded" where the old log had no such field; component derived from
file paths, severity from keywords (else unknown), fix_commits from
hashes in status_note/fix that git resolves (91 of 463 fixed).
- .wolf/buglog-archive.json: the 710 hook auto-detections, verbatim.
- .wolf/buglog.json is now an index generated from the records, keeping
the fields OpenWolf's hooks and `openwolf bug search` read.
- scripts/buglog.py rewritten: new (template + Environment collected from
the machine and --binary), check, status (refuses a status the record
doesn't support; fixed needs Root cause, Fix, Verification and
--commit hashes git resolves), note, recur, set, show, list, triage,
env, index. 29 unittest cases in scripts/tests/test_buglog.py.
- scripts/git-hooks/pre-commit runs `check --staged`: incomplete staged
records, a legacy record hand-changed to fixed without the fix-time
sections, a new record claiming legacy: true, or a stale index refuse
the commit.
- scripts/gitea-sync.py reads the records: issue body = the record's
sections plus linked fix commits (origin remote, GITEA_COMMIT_REPO to
override), and a body hash so an issue's text is refreshed when the
record changes.
- bug-1866 rewritten to the full standard as the worked example.

bug-451: va_list type confusion: WAL_JOB_RUSAGE hook payload reads job_t fields from an xce_job_rusages_t*
Description
va_list type confusion: WAL_JOB_RUSAGE hook payload reads job_t fields from an xce_job_rusages_t*
Environment
Not recorded (migrated from buglog.json).
Reproduction
Not recorded (migrated from buglog.json).
Root cause
update_job_rusages fires AFTER_EVENT HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_RUSAGE_UPDATE with (cluster_t*, xce_job_rusages_t*) at job.c:1015-1016, but persist_job_hook_fun's default arm (persist.c:1354-1359) reads the second vararg as job_t* and dereferences j->job.state at offset 56 == sizeof(xce_job_rusages_t) — an out-of-bounds read on an exactly-sized allocation; the WAL_JOB_RUSAGE payload state field is garbage (jobid at offset 0 lines up by accident)
Fix
FIXED (TDD RED->GREEN). Added a dedicated HOOK_DETAIL_JOB_RUSAGE_UPDATE arm to persist_job_hook_fun (persist.c) that reads the real xce_job_rusages_t* payload and looks the job up by jobid via the cluster_t* the hook already carries (c->jobmgr), instead of falling through to the default arm that misread it as a job_t*. Fix candidate (1) from the original investigation was used -- a dedicated RUSAGE arm -- not candidate (2) (firing the hook with (c, j) like other job hooks), because sched_job_rusage_update_fun/apiserver_job_rusage_update_fun (this hook's other two listeners, sched.c/apiserver.c) genuinely need the full rusages payload (pids/pgids/usages), so changing what job.c fires would have broken them. Regression test (test_commit_barrier_reply.c's test_update_op_rusage_receipt_reply_facts_retained, extended): drives the real do_update_op/update_job_rusages call path and scans the resulting WAL_JOB_RUSAGE entry, asserting state == JOB_STAT_PEND (the job's real state) -- RED under the old code (read back 0, the zeroed padding past xce_job_rusages_t's end), GREEN under the fix. Also fixed test_persist_hooks.c's test_job_hook_rusage_writes_wal_entry, which previously masked the bug by passing a job_t* stub instead of the real xce_job_rusages_t* shape -- now builds a minimal real cluster+jobmgr+job and passes the correct payload type; added a sibling test for the job-not-found graceful-skip path (returns 0, appends nothing, no crash). Full controller_unit_test suite: 1096 tests, 2 pre-existing unrelated failures (test_config_repl.c, filed as bug-1561 -- overlayfs fdatasync artifact, zero diff in that file this session), no regressions.
[Original entry] NOT FIXED (discovered while writing task 3.3 receipt-ACK verdict pins; production out of boundary). Test test_update_op_rusage_receipt_reply_facts_retained uses a padded union so the pin stays in-bounds under ASAN without masking the bug; fix candidates: dedicated RUSAGE arm in persist_job_hook_fun reading xce_job_rusages_t*, or fire the hook with (c, j) like the other job hooks
Verification
Not recorded (migrated from buglog.json).
