admin 1c00af607c R-404: block the push that can create the golden debt, notify the one that cannot
push_scope.py classifies a push as code or documents from an ALLOW-LIST of document paths -
everything else, including any new top-level directory, is code. Every uncertainty (first push,
force-push, merge commit, empty range, unreadable stdin) answers code: guessing 'documents' would
hand out the exemption by accident.

repo_gates.py gains a fifth GATES field and --scope=code|docs. On a documents-only push a
golden-currency CONVICTION prints as ADVISORY in its own block and does not refuse; every other
gate still refuses every push, and golden-currency still refuses a push touching code. The gate
itself is UNCHANGED - its verdict, exit codes and wording are byte-identical. What changed is who
is refused.

Measured on git 2.47.3: a pre-push hook receives <local ref> <local sha> <remote ref> <remote sha>
on stdin, one line per ref; a first push carries an all-zero remote sha and a deletion an all-zero
local sha. Both land on code.

# pre-push — refuse a push that carries a broken gate. (2026-08-02, R-29 leg (b) first half.)
#
# Runs this repo's ONE gate entry point in --fast mode: only checks that touch no network and no
# container runtime, so a push stays a push and never pulls images or starts containers. The slow
# gates stay deliberate periodic runs; a hook that takes minutes gets bypassed within a week and
# the bypass becomes the habit.
#
# BOTH LINES BELOW ARE DELIBERATE. An absent log line is not evidence a hook ran — a silent pass is
# equally consistent with "gates green" and "hook never fired", so a passing push says so out loud.
#
# HONEST LIMITS, stated so this is not mistaken for enforcement it cannot provide:
# * per-clone — core.hooksPath is local config and a clone does not carry it. Arm a clone once:
# git config core.hooksPath .githooks
# Any manual entry-point run WARNS when the clone is unarmed.
# * skippable — `git push --no-verify` bypasses this entirely. That is on purpose: an escape
# hatch that cannot be reached is one that gets removed the first time it is
# inconvenient. USING IT MUST BE STATED IN THE SESSION REPORT.
# * ONE GATE IS ADVISORY ON A DOCUMENTS-ONLY PUSH (R-404, 2026-09-01) — golden-currency, and
# only it. On a push whose whole range touches documents, the register, STATUS,
# reports or drill evidence, a golden-currency CONVICTION is printed loudly as
# ADVISORY and does not refuse the push. Every other gate still refuses every
# push, and golden-currency still refuses a push that touches code.
# WHY: the gate never looks at the push — it compares the controller's newest
# CHANGELOG heading against this repo's bake evidence, so it returns the same
# verdict whatever you are pushing. The controller's code is in one repo and its
# register lives here, so EVERY controller change produces a documents-only push
# here; and the push that PAYS the debt (a bake record under documentation/tests/)
# is itself documents-only, so blocking here blocked the cure. `--no-verify` had
# been used thirteen times, each with a recorded reason. This removes the reason,
# not the hatch.
# The scope is decided by scripts/push_scope.py, which fails closed to `code`.
# The half that is neither per-clone nor skippable is CI — felhom.eu OPEN-ITEMS.md R-168.
#
# Measured 2026-08-02 (git 2.47.3): a relative core.hooksPath resolves correctly and the hook's cwd
# is the repo root whether `git push` is issued from the root or from any subdirectory. The
# explicit rev-parse below does not depend on that.
#
# Measured 2026-09-01 (git 2.47.3, throwaway local remote, probe removed): git hands this hook its
# ref updates on STDIN as `<local ref> <local sha> <remote ref> <remote sha>`, one line per ref,
# four whitespace-separated fields. Observed directly:
# ordinary push refs/heads/master <new> refs/heads/master <old>
# FIRST push refs/heads/master <new> refs/heads/master 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
# two refs two lines, one per ref
# deletion (delete) 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 refs/heads/side <old>
# The all-zero cases are exactly why the classifier fails closed: a first push has no range to diff
# and a deletion has no content, so neither can be exempted.

# ── WORKSPACE-ROOT ASSERTION (2026-08-05, R-204 rider) ───────────────────────────────────────────
# Refuse a push from a clone outside the felhom workspace.
#
# WHY THIS IS A HOOK AND NOT A LINE IN A DOCUMENT: the workspace root is ALREADY written down, in
# documentation/runbooks/workspace-CLAUDE.md and in the workspace-root CLAUDE.md ("stay inside it"),
# and work drifted into a home directory anyway. A rule that has failed once as a reminder is not
# fixed by writing it down again — it has to be asserted where it can bite.
#
# A PUSH IS THE RIGHT TRIGGER, deliberately: throwaway clones under /tmp for probes and red-proofs
# never push, so nothing legitimate breaks. Reads and builds elsewhere stay unaffected.
#
# Symlinks are resolved on BOTH sides before comparison, so a symlinked path neither falsely passes
# nor falsely fails. If the workspace root does not exist on this machine the check is SKIPPED, not
# failed — this hook must not brick a legitimate clone on a different host.
#
# The only bypass is the documented `git push --no-verify`, whose use is already reportable.
