/**
 * Native port of bin/gstack-slug's resolution order, used when that script cannot be

 * Context Recovery preamble READS using the script.
 *
 * Resolution order (parity with the bash script, pinned by
 * test/bin-context-windows-slug.test.ts against test/gstack-slug-cwd-walk-up.test.ts
 * and test/gstack-slug-parity.test.ts):
 *   0. $GSTACK_PROJECT_SLUG env override — wins over everything, never cached.
 *   1. Walk UP to the OUTERMOST project root (see outermostProjectRoot). Without
 *      the walk, a nested/vendored repo derived its slug from the INNERMOST
 *      `git remote get-url origin`, splitting the store the bash side keeps whole.
 *   2. Cached slug is sticky (#2212) — EXCEPT two provable bug shapes:
 *      - old-bug shape (#1125): cached value equals basename(cwd) while the
 *        walk-up says cwd is NOT the project root; that cache came from the
 *        pre-walk-up resolver, so recompute and heal.
 *      - degraded-ancestor shape (2026-08-17), STRAY-REPO shape ONLY: cached
 *        equals the marker root's basename, the marker root is anchored by a
 *        .git entry whose origin does NOT resolve (the stray empty ~/.git
 *        live bug), and a remote-bearing repo BELOW it exists — the
 *        pre-remote-first resolver degraded to that stray ancestor's basename
 *        (SLUG=<username>). A marker root anchored by package.json /
 *        pyproject etc. with NO .git is legit #2212 sticky identity and must
 *        NOT be healed. Legit remote-adopting stickiness is safe too: there
 *        the repo that adopted the remote IS the marker root (remote root ==
 *        project root), so the heal never fires.
 *   3. Canonical remote-derived slug from the OUTERMOST remote-bearing repo
 *      (see outermostRemoteRepo — never PROJECT_ROOT, which may be a
 *      marker-only ancestor with no remote): [:/]<owner>/<repo>[.git] →
 *      owner-repo, byte-parity with browse/bin/remote-slug. Degenerate slugs
 *      ("", ".", "..", anything with "/") are rejected — a hostile origin
 *      like `url = ..` must never escape ~/.gstack/projects/<slug>.
 *   4. Project root's basename; else basename(cwd) for plain non-project folders.
