* feat: ETHOS.md — gstack builder philosophy
Standalone document capturing the four principles: The Golden Age,
Boil the Lake, Search Before Building, and Build for Yourself.
Introduces the three-layer knowledge framework (tried-and-true,
new-and-popular, first-principles) and the Eureka Moment concept —
when first-principles reasoning reveals conventional wisdom is wrong.

* feat: Search Before Building preamble section + CLAUDE.md
Add generateSearchBeforeBuildingSection(ctx) to gen-skill-docs.ts.
Every workflow skill now gets a compact router section covering:
- Three layers of knowledge (tried-and-true, new-and-popular, first-principles)
- Eureka moment format and jq-based JSONL logging
- WebSearch fallback clause
- ETHOS.md reference via ctx.paths.skillRoot resolver
Also adds compact "Search before building" section to CLAUDE.md.

- /plan-eng-review: Step 0 search check with layer provenance annotations
- /investigate: external pattern search + search escalation on hypothesis failure
- /plan-ceo-review: Landscape Check before scope challenge
- /review: search-before-recommending for fix patterns
- /qa-only: WebSearch in allowed-tools
- /design-consultation: three-layer synthesis backport in Phase 2 Step 3
- /retro: eureka moment tracking from ~/.gstack/analytics/eureka.jsonl

* fix: address Codex review — sanitize search, privacy gate, ETHOS.md sidecar
Three fixes from adversarial Codex review:
- /investigate: sanitize error messages before searching (strip hostnames,
IPs, file paths, SQL, customer data). Skip search if unsanitizable.
- /office-hours: add privacy gate before landscape search. Use generalized
category terms, never the user's specific product name or stealth idea.
- setup: link ETHOS.md into .agents/skills/gstack/ sidecar so workspace-
local Codex sessions can find the builder philosophy.

* fix: sanitize Phase 2 external pattern search in /investigate
The Phase 2 external search also sent raw error messages to WebSearch.
Apply same sanitization rule as Phase 3 search escalation.
