chore(release): 5.11.0 — the intent approval gate is a new capability

Version 5.11.0 in every file that carries it: .claude-plugin/plugin.json,
package.json, package-lock.json (both entries; they said 5.10.0, drift
from before 5.10.1), the README badge, and a CHANGELOG entry for
everything since v5.10.1. Chose a minor bump because /trekplan gains a
halt (a new capability, additive schema). Handover 1 changes for
downstream producers: their briefs stop at /trekplan until approved.

No tag and no catalog bump here: release-plugin.mjs runs in the operator's
push round.

Suite after git add: 1234 tests, 1232 pass / 0 fail / 2 skip in 2 of 3
runs. The third failed only the known timing test otel SC #14 tail-latency
(877 ms against an 800 ms ceiling), which this order leaves alone.

+## v5.11.0 — 2026-09-23 — /trekplan plans only against an approved intent
+
+### Added
+
+- **Intent approval gate.** `/trekplan` (both `--brief` and `--project`, also
+  `--quick`, no override flag) runs `lib/validators/intent-approval.mjs --check`
+  before it reads the brief. It **halts** on `BRIEF_INTENT_NOT_APPROVED`,
+  `BRIEF_INTENT_APPROVAL_STALE` or `BRIEF_INTENT_APPROVAL_INVALID`, and an
+  approval check that cannot run halts too. The marker is `intent_approved_hash`
+  (sha256 over the normalized `## Intent` + `## Goal`) plus `intent_approved_at`.
+  Editing either section after approval makes it stale. `/trekbrief` Phase 4h
+  shows Intent and Goal verbatim and stamps only on "Approve".
+  `/trekbrief --approve <project-dir | brief-file>` does that step alone for a brief
+  from any producer. A `## ` line inside a code block or HTML comment is not a
+  heading, and each section must appear exactly once. The marker is a trace that the
+  step ran against this text, not a signature: any session on the same machine can
+  stamp.
+- **`scripts/yardstick.mjs`** prints Voyage's three numbers (use, trust,
+  interrupts) with the denominator and the source each one was read from. It
+  exits non-zero while any number cannot be counted, and today it is RED.
+- **`scripts/end-state-gate.mjs`** counts the distance to "Voyage is finished"
+  (defects, experiments, dormant agents, open decisions). It is fail-closed: an
+  entry whose check cannot run counts as open.
+- **Plugin eval suite (`evals/`, `docs/proevesett.md`)**: eight cases run as
+  real `claude -p` children with only Voyage loaded, deterministic graders,
+  and each expectation committed before its first run. Measured stability: every
+  case 5 of 5 over three full runs, and the sequencing-gate case 15 of 15.
+- `lib/stats/stats-append.mjs`: `/trekbrief` and `/trekplan` stats records
+  land in the data dir the yardstick reads when `CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA` is empty,
+  and a failed write is reported, not skipped silently. `intent_approved`
+  reaches the OTel field allowlist.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Handover 1 (PUBLIC CONTRACT): a brief from any producer now stops at
+  `/trekplan` until its intent is approved.** The schema change is additive (two
+  optional fields, no `brief_version` bump). The requirement sits in the
+  consumer. See `docs/HANDOVER-CONTRACTS.md` §Handover 1.
+- The arg parser has a CLI. `/trekreview` runs it with `$ARGUMENTS` and relays
+  `Error: --project <dir> is required.` from code (it passed `"$@"`, which the
+  Bash tool never has, so the parser never ran).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- `/trekexecute` runs the plan's `## Verification` on the single-session path
+  too (D-03), and `/trekreview` runs the brief's success-criteria commands and
+  gives the reviewer the result (D-04), through `lib/verification/criteria-runner.mjs`.
+- The criteria runner screens with an **allowlist** of test runners, not a
+  denylist, and refuses writes a brief may not perform. A backticked span runs only
+  when it is a command, and the runner reads the repo's own plan format.
+- The end-state gate can no longer be turned green by editing its own ledger,
+  and a behaviour probe must fell a stub, not just name a test.
+- The review gold-scorer key separator is written as an escape, not a raw
+  NUL byte. The `/trekresearch` swarm engine points only at the External agents block.
+- Docs no longer claim an opus orchestrator: the commands follow the session model.
+
+### Removed
+
+- `/trekplan`'s "execute with team" path: Claude Code 2.1.178 removed
+  TeamCreate/TeamDelete, so it always fell back to sequential execution.
+- `TaskCreate`/`TaskUpdate` from `/trekplan`'s tool lists. Claude Code 2.1.233
+  stopped offering them on current models, and no prose called them.
+
 ## v5.10.1 — 2026-09-03 — gemini-bridge dropped; fail-closed review verdicts
