+# Crucible Command Surface Cleanup Implementation Plan
+
+> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use
+> `superpowers:subagent-driven-development` or
+> `superpowers:executing-plans` to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use
+> checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
+
+**Goal:** Replace repetitive Crucible command names with a descriptive,
+registry-driven public surface, retain long names as hidden aliases, and remove
+the unused music conversion pipeline without affecting authored `.bmu` assets.
+
+**Architecture:** `internal/dispatch.Registry` gains explicit command records
+that drive lookup, help, and the interactive menu while translating to unchanged
+`internal/app` implementation names. The unused music subsystem is removed
+through its app, pipeline, project-config, validator, packaging, and consumer
+boundaries. The two active `sow-assets-manifest` call sites are decoupled in the
+same worktree session.
+
+**Tech Stack:** Go 1.26, Go tests, Nix flakes, Dockerfile, Bash/Bats.
+
+## Global Constraints
+
+- Never commit or push.
+- Do not touch secrets or `.sops` data.
+- Keep `internal/dispatch.Registry` synchronized with
+  `docs/command-surface.md`.
+- Preserve deterministic artifact behavior.
+- Preserve every existing long command as a hidden alias except all music
+  commands, which are removed.
+- Preserve `.bmu` as an ordinary HAK asset.
+- Do not retain generated binaries or build output.
+
+---
+
+### Task 1: Registry-driven canonical commands and hidden aliases
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `internal/dispatch/dispatch.go`
+- Modify: `internal/dispatch/dispatch_test.go`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+
+- Produces a `Command` record owned by each `Builder`.
+- Produces lookup that returns the command record and exact app target.
+- Preserves `Builder.Legacy` only if required by migration tests; otherwise
+  replaces it with command-derived compatibility metadata.
+
+- [ ] Add failing tests covering the visible command table:
+  `hak build/manifest`, `module build/extract/validate/compare/manifest`,
+  `topdata validate/build/package/compare/convert`, and `wiki build/deploy`.
+- [ ] Add failing tests proving long aliases resolve to the same app target and
+  that `module build-module` resolves to `build-module`, not `build`.
+- [ ] Add a failing test proving all music commands are rejected.
+- [ ] Run:
+
+  ```bash
+  nix develop --command go test ./internal/dispatch -run 'TestCanonical|TestHidden|TestMusic' -v
+  ```
+
+  Expected: failures caused by the old registry shape and exposed music
+  commands.
+
+- [ ] Introduce command records with fields equivalent to:
+
+  ```go
+  type Command struct {
+      Name        string
+      Summary     string
+      AppCommand  string
+      Usage       string
+      Options     []string
+      HiddenAlias []string
+  }
+  ```
+
+  Use the minimum final field names that keep lookup, menu, and help readable.
+
+- [ ] Replace builder-level subcommand acceptance with command lookup. Translate
+  canonical and hidden aliases to `AppCommand` before calling `app.Run`.
+- [ ] Define the approved command table and remove dispatcher music entries.
+- [ ] Re-run the focused dispatch tests and the full dispatch package:
+
+  ```bash
+  nix develop --command go test ./internal/dispatch -v
+  ```
+
+  Expected: pass.
+
+### Task 2: Descriptive menu and command-specific help
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `internal/menu/menu.go`
+- Modify: `internal/menu/menu_test.go`
+- Modify: `internal/dispatch/dispatch.go`
+- Modify: `internal/dispatch/dispatch_test.go`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+
+- `menu.Item` carries display label, summary, dispatcher args, usage, and option
+  lines.
+- `menu.Select` returns selected dispatcher args plus entered arguments.
+- Dispatcher command help uses the same registry guidance as the menu.
+
+- [ ] Add failing menu tests proving descriptions start at one aligned column
+  for labels of different lengths and hidden aliases never enter `menuItems()`.
+- [ ] Add a failing test selecting a command and asserting output contains its
+  usage, option guidance, and
+  `arguments (press Enter to use defaults):`.
+- [ ] Add failing dispatcher tests proving
+  `crucible topdata build --help` returns `0`, prints canonical usage/options,
+  and does not delegate into project loading.
+- [ ] Run:
+
+  ```bash
+  nix develop --command go test ./internal/menu ./internal/dispatch -run 'Test.*Menu|Test.*Help' -v
+  ```
+
+  Expected: fail against the current fixed-width menu and builder-only help.
+
+- [ ] Compute menu label width from visible items and render descriptions with
+  that width.
+- [ ] Print command guidance immediately after a selection and before reading
+  optional arguments.
+- [ ] Add command-level help handling before app delegation.
+- [ ] Ensure builder help lists only canonical names and their summaries.
+- [ ] Run:
+
+  ```bash
+  nix develop --command go test ./internal/menu ./internal/dispatch -v
+  ```
+
+  Expected: pass.
+
+### Task 3: Remove music from HAK app and pipeline
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Delete: `internal/pipeline/music.go`
+- Modify: `internal/pipeline/build.go`
+- Modify: `internal/pipeline/pipeline_test.go`

+- Delete: `internal/music/credits.go`
+- Delete: `internal/music/metadata.go`
+- Delete: `internal/music/music.go`
+- Delete: `internal/music/music_test.go`
+- Delete: `internal/music/naming.go`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+
+- `pipeline.BuildHAKOptions` retains only HAK selection, source-manifest,
+  content-addressed-root, and progress controls.
+- `pipeline.BuildResult` retains artifact fields unrelated to generated music
+  credits.
+- `build-haks` accepts no music-specific flags.
+
+- [ ] Replace music pipeline tests with a failing contract test that builds a
+  HAK containing a pre-authored `.bmu` and proves the file appears in the
+  manifest/archive without conversion setup.
+- [ ] Add failing parser tests proving `--skip-music` and `--music-dataset`
+  return unknown-argument errors and help does not mention them.
+- [ ] Run:
+
+  ```bash
+  nix develop --command go test ./internal/app ./internal/pipeline -run 'Test.*Music|Test.*BMU|TestParseBuildHAK' -v
+  ```
+
+  Expected: at least the removed-flag assertions fail.
+
+- [ ] Remove the app `music` command, argument parser, emitters, music HAK
+  options, and credits console output.
+- [ ] Remove music fields from `BuildHAKOptions` and `BuildResult`.
+- [ ] Remove preparation/cleanup calls from HAK builds so asset collection reads
+  authored resources directly.
+- [ ] Delete the music implementation packages and obsolete conversion tests.
+- [ ] Keep `.bmu` handling in ordinary ERF/resource and asset collection paths.
+- [ ] Run:
+
+  ```bash
+  nix develop --command go test ./internal/app ./internal/pipeline -v
+  ```
+
+  Expected: pass.
+
+### Task 4: Remove music configuration and validation
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `internal/project/project.go`
+- Modify: `internal/project/effective.go`
+- Modify: `internal/project/project_test.go`
+- Modify: `internal/validator/validator.go`
+- Modify: `internal/validator/validator_test.go`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+
+- `project.Config` and `project.EffectiveConfig` contain no music section.
+- Project scanning uses only configured inventory extensions.
+- `.bmu` and `.wav` remain default asset extensions; `.mp3` and `.ogg` do not.
+
+- [ ] Add or adjust failing project tests asserting default extensions include
+  `.bmu` and `.wav` but exclude `.mp3` and `.ogg`.
+- [ ] Add a failing strict-decoder test proving a top-level `music:` field is
+  rejected as unknown.
+- [ ] Run:
+
+  ```bash
+  nix develop --command go test ./internal/project ./internal/validator -run 'Test.*Music|Test.*AssetExtension|Test.*BMU' -v
+  ```
+
+  Expected: fail while music config is still accepted.
+
+- [ ] Remove music config types, defaults, normalization, validation, accessors,
+  effective config, provenance defaults, and environment overrides.
+- [ ] Simplify `Project.Scan` to accept assets solely from
+  `effective.Inventory.AssetExtensions`.
+- [ ] Remove validator logic that exempts conversion source files.
+- [ ] Remove conversion-only `.mp3` and `.ogg` from default asset extensions;
+  retain `.bmu` and `.wav`.
+- [ ] Remove obsolete music-focused project and validator tests.
+- [ ] Run:
+
+  ```bash
+  nix develop --command go test ./internal/project ./internal/validator -v
+  ```
+
+  Expected: pass.
+
+### Task 5: Remove ffmpeg packaging and stale documentation
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `flake.nix`
+- Modify: `docker/Dockerfile`
+- Modify: `wrappers/crucible.sh`
+- Modify: `README.md`
+- Modify: `AGENTS.md`
+- Modify: `docs/command-surface.md`
+- Modify: `docs/migration-from-nwn-tool.md`
+
+**Interfaces:**
+
+- Nix development shell and image no longer contain ffmpeg.
+- Docker runtime contains only certificates and the non-root runtime support
+  needed by current builders.
+- User docs advertise canonical short commands.
+
+- [ ] Add a shell verification that fails while active packaging still mentions
+  ffmpeg or removed command names:
+
+  ```bash
+  ! rg -n 'ffmpeg|ffprobe|skip-music|music-dataset|module music|hak music' \
+    flake.nix docker wrappers README.md AGENTS.md docs/command-surface.md
+  ```
+
+- [ ] Remove `pkgs.ffmpeg-headless` and `ffmpeg` from Nix image/dev-shell
+  contents and update comments.
+- [ ] Return the Docker runtime to a minimal base without ffmpeg while retaining
+  CA certificates and non-root execution.
+- [ ] Remove the wrapper's `ffmpeg-free` wording.
+- [ ] Rewrite command-surface documentation around canonical names and a
+  concise hidden-alias compatibility section.
+- [ ] Update README examples and ownership/status prose.
+- [ ] Re-run the search. Expected: no matches in active files.
+
+### Task 6: Decouple active consumer scripts
+
+**Files in `../sow-assets-manifest`:**
+
+- Modify: `scripts/pack-haks.sh`
+- Modify: `scripts/build-local-haks.sh`
+- Modify: `tests/pack-haks.bats`
+- Modify only directly related active comments/tests if a focused test proves
+  they require adjustment.
+
+**Interfaces:**
+
+- Both scripts call the hidden-compatible `hak build-haks` or canonical
+  `hak build` without `--skip-music`.
+
+- [ ] Read `../sow-assets-manifest/AGENTS.md` before editing.
+- [ ] Add or adjust a focused test to reject `--skip-music` in generated
+  Crucible invocations.
+- [ ] Run the focused test and confirm it fails while the flag is present.
+- [ ] Remove `--skip-music` and its lockstep comments from both scripts.
+- [ ] Update the HAK parser test invocation to omit the removed flag.
+- [ ] Run:
+
+  ```bash
+  cd ../sow-assets-manifest
+  nix develop --command bats tests/pack-haks.bats
+  ```
+
+  Expected: pass.
+
+### Task 7: Full verification and scratchpad cleanup
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `../SCRATCHPAD.md`
+- Do not retain: `bin/`, `.cache/go-build/`, result symlinks, image tarballs, or
+  other generated outputs.
+
+- [ ] Run formatting:
+
+  ```bash
+  nix develop --command gofmt -w internal/app internal/dispatch internal/menu internal/pipeline internal/project internal/validator
+  ```
+
+- [ ] Run full repository checks:
+
+  ```bash
+  nix develop --command make check
+  make build
+  make smoke
+  ```
+
+- [ ] Run focused consumer verification from Task 6.
+- [ ] Verify deleted pipeline identifiers are absent from active code:
+
+  ```bash
+  rg -n 'BuildMusic|CreditsSummary|MusicDataset|skip-music|music-dataset|ffmpeg|ffprobe' \
+    --glob '!docs/superpowers/**' .
+  ```
+
+  Expected: no matches.
+
+- [ ] Verify active command docs/examples do not advertise long names:
+
+  ```bash
+  rg -n 'topdata (validate-topdata|build-topdata|build-top-package|compare-topdata|convert-topdata)|wiki (build-wiki|deploy-wiki)|hak (build-haks|apply-hak-manifest)' \
+    README.md docs/command-surface.md
+  ```
+
+  Expected: matches only inside the explicitly labeled hidden-alias
+  compatibility section.
+
+- [ ] Inspect `git diff --check`, `git status --short`, and both repository
+  diffs. Remove only generated files created by this work.
+- [ ] Remove the completed “Simplify crucible commands” to-do and the full
+  “Crucible commands issue” section from `../SCRATCHPAD.md`; do not archive it.
+- [ ] Record exact verification commands and outcomes in the final handoff.

+# Crucible Command Surface Cleanup Design
+
+**Date:** 2026-06-25  
+**Status:** Approved  
+**Scope:** `sow-tools`, with the two active `sow-assets-manifest` call sites
+updated in lockstep
+
+## Problem
+
+Crucible exposes migrated `nwn-tool` implementation names directly. Several
+public commands repeat their builder name (`topdata build-topdata`,
+`wiki build-wiki`), the interactive menu repeats builder-level descriptions
+instead of explaining each action, and selected commands only prompt for
+unexplained "extra args".
+
+The registry also exposes a migrated music-conversion subsystem that is not part
+of the current project workflow. Live HAK builds explicitly bypass it with
+`--skip-music`; authored `.bmu` files are already packed as ordinary assets.
+
+## Decisions
+
+### Canonical command names
+
+The visible command surface is:
+
+| Builder | Visible commands |
+| --- | --- |
+| `hak` | `build`, `manifest` |
+| `module` | `build`, `extract`, `validate`, `compare`, `manifest` |
+| `topdata` | `validate`, `build`, `package`, `compare`, `convert` |
+| `wiki` | `build`, `deploy` |
+
+The dispatcher translates these names to the existing `internal/app`
+implementation commands. The app implementation names do not need to be
+renamed.
+
+### Hidden compatibility aliases
+
+Existing long names remain callable indefinitely but are omitted from the
+interactive menu and routine builder help:
+
+- `hak build-haks`
+- `hak apply-hak-manifest`
+- `module build-module`
+- `module apply-hak-manifest`
+- `topdata validate-topdata`
+- `topdata build-topdata`
+- `topdata build-top-package`
+- `topdata compare-topdata`
+- `topdata convert-topdata`
+- `wiki build-wiki`
+- `wiki deploy-wiki`
+
+Aliases preserve their existing implementation target. In particular,
+`module build-module` continues to run the module-only implementation; it must
+not silently become the broader `module build`.
+
+### Registry model
+
+`internal/dispatch.Registry` remains the single source of truth. Each wired
+builder owns command records containing:
+
+- visible command name;
+- action-oriented summary;
+- underlying `internal/app` command;
+- command usage and option guidance;
+- hidden compatibility aliases, where applicable.
+
+Execution, menu items, and builder help are generated from these records.
+Unknown commands continue to fail with exit `64`.
+
+### Interactive behavior
+
+The main menu:
+
+- lists only visible commands;
+- aligns the description column from the longest visible label;
+- shows a distinct description for every command.
+
+After selection, it prints the selected command's usage and available options,
+then prompts:
+
+```text
+arguments (press Enter to use defaults):
+```
+
+Arguments continue to use shell-like whitespace splitting, matching current
+behavior. Quoted argument parsing is out of scope.
+
+`crucible <builder> <command> --help` prints the same command-specific guidance,
+returns success, and performs no project loading or build work.
+
+### Remove the unused music pipeline
+
+The music conversion subsystem is deleted rather than hidden:
+
+- remove the `music` app and dispatcher commands;
+- remove `internal/music` and `internal/pipeline/music.go`;
+- remove music config, effective config, validation, environment overrides, and
+  project accessors;
+- remove HAK music preparation, conversion, credits, generated-manifest result
+  fields, `--skip-music`, and `--music-dataset`;
+- remove ffmpeg/ffprobe runtime and development dependencies;
+- remove music-pipeline documentation and wrapper wording.
+
+`.bmu` remains a supported ordinary asset extension and continues through the
+same content-addressed HAK packing path as other authored files. Actual game
+content, category names, or prose that happens to use the word "music" is not
+part of this deletion.
+
+The default asset-extension list drops conversion-only `.mp3` and `.ogg`.
+`.wav` remains because it is an NWN resource type independent of the deleted
+conversion pipeline.
+
+Because `sow-assets-manifest` currently passes `--skip-music`, its
+`scripts/pack-haks.sh` and `scripts/build-local-haks.sh` call sites are updated
+in the same change before verification.
+
+## Error handling
+
+- Canonical and hidden alias lookup is deterministic within one builder.
+- Registry tests reject duplicate visible names or aliases.
+- Command help never delegates to `internal/app`.
+- Removed music commands and flags fail as unknown usage.
+- Existing project files containing a top-level `music:` configuration become
+  invalid under strict YAML decoding. No active consumer configuration contains
+  that field.
+
+## Testing
+
+Tests assert public contracts rather than exact incidental formatting:
+
+- visible command names and hidden alias translation;
+- preservation of the distinct `module build-module` target;
+- hidden aliases absent from menu and normal help;
+- command-specific help exits successfully without project setup;
+- menu columns align and selected-command guidance is displayed;
+- `.bmu` remains accepted as an asset;
+- `.mp3`/`.ogg` are no longer default packable assets;
+- HAK builds no longer expose or execute music preparation;
+- ffmpeg is absent from package/image definitions;
+- both consumer scripts no longer pass `--skip-music`.
+
+Final verification is `nix develop --command make check`, `make build`,
+`make smoke`, focused consumer tests, and repository-wide searches for deleted
+pipeline identifiers.
