Kjell Tore Guttormsen f3aadb5183 feat(rul,cml): durability findings — config lost after compaction (v5.5.0 / A)
Per the official "what survives compaction" model (context-window.md):
only the project-root CLAUDE.md (+ unscoped rules) is re-injected after a
context compaction. Two additive, structural findings (low severity):

- RUL: a large (>50-line) PATH-SCOPED rule — reloads only on a matching
  file read, and is not re-injected after compaction, so must-hold rules
  can silently drop mid-session.
- CML: a NESTED (subdirectory) CLAUDE.md — not re-injected after
  compaction (only the project root is).

Additive (no new scanner, count stays 13); one humanizer entry each;
hermetic temp-fixture tests (positive + negative). Suite 957 -> 961,
SC-5 byte-stable, self-audit A/A.

Known limitation (pre-existing, broader than A): the lightweight
frontmatter parser reads inline `paths:` but not YAML block sequences,
so block-sequence-scoped rules are still seen as unscoped. Deferred.

Part of v5.5.0 "steering-model I". Foundation (active-config-reader
enumeration) deferred to v5.6 with B.
