//   node plan-gate.mjs <plan.md> [--json]
//     0 = the plan may go on
//     1 = stop: invalid plan (plan-validator --strict, plan_version >= 1.8),
//         no critic verdict, a malformed verdict, a verdict the plan has
//         moved away from (stale), an open BLOCKER, or an open MAJOR the
//         operator has not accepted
//     2 = could not run (missing/unreadable plan, bad arguments)
//
//   node plan-gate.mjs --hash <plan.md>
//     Prints the sha256 of the plan's operative text. Phase 9 takes it BEFORE
//     the reviewers read the plan and hands it to --record.
//
//   node plan-gate.mjs --record <plan.md> --reviewed <sha256> [--extra-round]
//     stdin = plan-review-dedup.mjs output. Writes this round's verdict into
//     the plan. 0 = written; 1 = refused: the round cap is spent (stop and ask
//     the operator; `--extra-round` only after their yes, and only then);
//     2 = could not run: bad stdin, a reviewer missing from the dedup input,
//     the plan changed since --hash (the verdict would bless unreviewed text),
//     an unreadable plan or a failed write. Nothing is written on 1 or 2.
//     From round 2 on it counts against the snapshot named by the previous
//     verdict's plan_sha256 (rule A, below); a missing, oversized, misnamed or
//     tampered snapshot means full counting, said in one `diff_note` line. On
//     0 it keeps this round's operative text as a snapshot (tmp + rename)
//     before the plan is written. Output: one JSON line, which adds
//     `diff_base`, `diff_note`, `lowered` (a number) and `snapshot` ("kept: ..."
//     or "not kept: <reason>"; a failed snapshot write does not fail the round).
//
//   node plan-gate.mjs --diff <plan.md>
//     Prints what the next critic round reviews: `diff-base: <sha256> (round N)`
//     and each hunk as `@@ lines A-B @@` in the plan's full-file line numbers,
//     `-` old lines and `+NNN ` new lines; or `diff-base: none — <reason>;
//     review the whole plan`. 0 = printed; 2 = unreadable plan, bad arguments.
//
// Snapshots: `<git dir>/voyage/plan-snapshots/<sha256>.md`, the operative text
// the round reviewed, named by its own sha256. The git dir is found from the
// plan file's own directory only (no cwd fallback); a plan in no repository
// keeps none. git never tracks its own directory, so a snapshot is never
// committed, whatever the repo's .gitignore or artifact_store says.
//
//   node plan-gate.mjs --accept-open <plan.md>
//     After the operator's explicit yes to "build as is": records the open
//     MAJORs of the current round as accepted (`accepted_open` in the verdict
//     block, bound to the round and the plan hash). 0 = written; 1 = refused
//     (rounds left, a BLOCKER is open, no MAJOR is open, or the verdict is
//     stale); 2 = could not run.
//
// Open MAJORs (operator decision 2026-10-08, voyage-lekerepo trial point 6):
// they used to pass as warnings, and after the last round there was no way to
// fix one — a weakness the critics had named was built and came back from the
// review as MAJOR. Now an open MAJOR stops: with rounds left, revise and run
// the next round; after the last one, ask the operator — fix now (one extra
// round) or build as is (`--accept-open`).
//
// Where the verdict lives: INSIDE the plan, as the `## Critic Verdict` section
// with one fenced json block. Claude Code's plan approval hands a hook the
// plan file's text (`tool_input.plan`, `planFilePath`) and nothing next to
// it, so a verdict in a sibling file would be invisible there.
//
// What the verdict is bound to: sha256 of the plan's operative text — the plan
// minus its review log, with CRLF and line-end whitespace normalized. The
// review log is the `> **Plan quality:` header line and the level-2 sections
// titled exactly Critic Verdict, Revisions, Plan Quality Score and
// "Adversarial Pass 2 (v5.1.1 high-effort)" — each only up to its first
// other heading, so a step or section placed under a log heading is hashed.
// Edit a step, the design or the verification after the critic ran, and the
// verdict is stale until the next round.
//
// The loop is bounded (Kiro's bounded review loop): MAX_ROUNDS critic rounds,
// then stop and ask; never silently on. Unrated findings count as blockers.
// The verdict is a trace of a process, not a signature: anything that can
// write the plan can write the block.
//
// Rule A (decision 43): from critic round 2 on, `recordVerdict` counts a round
// against the diff between the operative text the previous round reviewed (the
// base, `opts.base`) and the plan now, through `countRound` in
// lib/review/critic-diff.mjs. A new MAJOR that cites a plan line outside that
// diff counts as minor; a blocker, a security finding and a finding with no
// plan line count at full severity; a previous finding stays counted (carried,
// with its id) until every reviewer that raised it marks it resolved and nobody
// re-reports it. Rule B (a major a named test, `Regression:` command or gate
// will fail on is minor) is recorded from round 1 and never lowers a blocker or
// a security finding. Without a usable base (none, not the previous round's
// text, or the plan unchanged since it) the round is counted as before, and
// `diff_note` says why in one line. Every new verdict field is optional
// (DIFF_FIELDS); its absence means round-1 behaviour, so an older block gives
// the same exits. Trust limit: anything that can write the plan can also
// rewrite the previous verdict's plan_sha256 and plant a matching base; rule A
// raises what such a forgery buys, and an unchanged base lowers nothing.
