Outcome

Remove the Claude transcript parser and Ward-owned local JSONL tool-failure buffer. Retain generic, secret-safe run artifacts as the supported evidence surface.

Scope

Delete agent_tool_failures.go, its tests, documentation, drain hook, sent-path handling, and harness transcript assumptions.
Delete the ~/.cache/agentic-os tool-failure output owned by this subsystem.
Do not generalize the parser or buffer into a new Ward subsystem in this issue.

Preserved boundary

Generic raw or redacted run artifacts and skill-produced summaries remain available where their owning contracts permit them.
Redaction and secret-safety requirements from #1582 remain mandatory.

Acceptance

Ward has no harness-specific transcript parsing or local tool-failure buffer.
No product documentation or runtime path refers to that buffer.
Retained generic artifacts still provide the supported diagnostic evidence without weakening redaction.

Coordinates with #1569 and #1582. Blocks documentation consolidation in #1624.

Decision resolved with Kai:

Remove only the Claude tool-failure producer, not every transcript-derived artifact.
Delete agent_tool_failures.go, its tests, the drain invocation, JSONL schema, classifier, fingerprinting, excerpts, buffer paths, and docs/tool-failures.md.
Remove the subsystem from the docs index and FEATURES.
Interpret the acceptance wording as no harness-specific tool-failure extraction. Preserve transcript capture, redaction, generic friction events, and secret-free skill-usage summaries.
Add no generalized parser, event stream, shipper, compatibility file, legacy warning, or tombstone behavior.
#1582 remains authoritative for persisted transcript and artifact safety. Any current allowance for raw artifacts does not survive #1582.
Stop creating or reading ~/.cache/ward/tool-failures/. Ward does not delete historical user cache files during upgrade or runtime.
Active checkout search found no downstream shipper consumer. Only a historical dispatch log mentions the older ~/.cache/agentic-os/tool-failures/ spelling.
Priority is P2 because this blocks #1624.
