# M8 Gate Progress

> **Temporary file** — delete after M8 merges to main. Survives across model sessions so progress is shareable.

**Plan:** [docs/superpowers/plans/2026-05-24-m8-zero-config-auto-proxy.md](../plans/2026-05-24-m8-zero-config-auto-proxy.md) (sourced from `~/.claude/plans/users-jimmy-documents-cachelane-designs-floating-lark.md`)
**Branch:** `claude/dreamy-elion-43cbbf` (worktree branch — rename to `feat/m8-auto-proxy` at PR time)
**Reference design:** [designs/2026-05-24-zero-config-auto-proxy.md](../../../designs/2026-05-24-zero-config-auto-proxy.md)

## Status values
- `pending` — not yet started
- `in-progress` — implementer dispatched
- `awaiting-review` — implementer done, spec/code reviews pending
- `awaiting-human-validation` — reviews passed, awaiting manual checkpoint
- `done` — human-validated, tagged, locked

## Environment
- **Node:** Node 20 via Homebrew (`/opt/homebrew/opt/node@20/bin/node`) — every shell must `export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/node@20/bin:$PATH"` before running tests
- **Baseline (pre-G1):** 223 tests passing in 2.20s

## Per-gate progress
Each gate has its own file (`gate-N-<name>.md`) with detailed status notes, failed-test stack traces, decisions, and links to commits.
