 * stages with separate clocks: mechanical preflight, then test execution.
 * Pin files (.gstack/pregate.json, .gstack/generated.json) are read from
 * origin/<base>; their commands and the test runner run only with
 * --allow-repo-commands (what /ship passes). Logic: lib/pregate/*.

  run (default)   stage 1 mechanical preflight (${CHECKS.filter(c => c.stage === 'preflight').map(c => c.id).join(', ')}), then stage 2 test execution (${CHECKS.filter(c => c.stage === 'tests').map(c => c.id).join(', ')})
  verify          publication check against ${PREGATE_OUT_REL}: current tree, no fail or incomplete, every requires-remote obligation cleared
  clear           record the receipt that clears one requires-remote obligation: pregate.json/remote_gate needs
                  --receipt <file> (the gate's PREGATE_REMOTE: line, checked against the tested tree); a
                  test_backend/<backend> run URL is recorded as attested, not validated
  lanes           print every CI lane with its platform tier (from .github/workflows/*.yml)
  validate | init the working-tree ${PREGATE_CONFIG_PATH}
  sealed [--range <a..b>] [--remote <name>] [--base <branch>]
                  the sealed-output guard (docs/pregate.md#sealed) over the commits <remote> lacks, or the range:
                  run it before any push or PR creation in a repo with a \`sealed\` config; exit 1 refuses (SEALED_OUTPUT_REFUSED)
  regate --against <gated-head> --bundle <file> [--require <lanes>] [--pr <n>] [--predecessor-pr <n> | --predecessor-ref <ref>]
                  a fresh tree receipt, each lane's reuse verdict, migration collisions (base branch and open PRs), then
                  REGATE: needed|not-needed (docs/pregate.md#regate); \`gstack-pregate --against <head>\` is the same verb; exit 1 = needed

  --stage preflight|tests|all   default all
  --only <check,...>            restrict to these checks (${CHECK_IDS.join(', ')}; tier 2 later: ${PREGATE_TIER2.join(', ')})
  --base <branch>               a branch on origin, not a commit (default: origin/HEAD's branch, else main)
  --allow-repo-commands         run pin-file commands and the test runner (what /ship passes); without it those checks are incomplete
  --policy-from base|head       base (default, reviewed) or head (unreviewed; needs --allow-repo-commands)
  --out <file>                  pregate.json path (default ${PREGATE_OUT_REL})
  --timeout <s>                 timeout for each runner process (default 600): the unit-file group, each serial file, each guard
                                without timeout_s; the stall timeout catches a silent one sooner
  --stall-timeout <s>           kill a test command's process group after this long with no output and record the check
                                incomplete (PREGATE_STALLED); default stall_timeout_s from the base .gstack/pregate.json,
                                else ${DEFAULT_STALL_TIMEOUT_S}; 0 disables
  --remote                      run the base branch's remote_gate now instead of local tests (needs --allow-repo-commands and
                                --policy-from base); it clears the requires-remote obligation only on its
                                PREGATE_REMOTE: tree=<tested tree> tests=<n> failed=0 line with n > 0
  --spend-cap <usd>             the cap --remote passes to the gate (default \$GSTACK_SPEND_CAP_USD); spend is reported as
                                spent, reserved and unknown
  --explain                     print each selected test's provenance and each uncertain mapping
  --json                        one JSON object on stdout; a refusal before any check runs (unavailable base, invalid pin
                                file, WTREE_UNAVAILABLE) is {ok:false,status:'refused',code,detail,fix,docs} with exit 3,
                                and a run carries ok and status (complete|incomplete); GSTACK_RESULT goes to stderr

A failing check blocks (exit 1); incomplete never passes; requires-remote lanes are persisted
obligations publication needs receipts for. Under 8 cores, a base-branch remote_gate or a remote
test_backend (gstack-config) records the local test tier as a requires-remote obligation with the
command to run instead of running it. Test progress goes to stderr live (PREGATE_TEST: per file
for bun test, PREGATE_HEARTBEAT: after each 60 s without progress, then PREGATE: tests <verdict>);
--json keeps stdout to the JSON document. Ends with GSTACK_RESULT: skill=pregate status=… run=<pregate.json>
(on stderr under --json).
