CB-RES-0003 measured 84 turns and $15.33 — the largest mechanical
category — spent prefixing commands with `cd` and
`export PATH="$HOME/.cargo/bin:$PATH"`. Both causes are now fixed once
instead of per-leaf.
tools/repo.py resolves the repo root from __file__ and cargo from PATH
then the standard rustup locations. Every tool imports ROOT from it, so
the repo path is stated once rather than redefined in four files —
single source of fact, the rule DFD earned in InnerLoop v1.2.
rule-coverage and dep-weight now call enter_root(), which is why their
relative paths did not need rewriting one by one.
The Makefile derives REPO from MAKEFILE_LIST and resolves CARGO the same
way, so `make -C <repo> <target>` works from any directory with no
prefix.
make env-test is the positive control, and is in `make all`: every tool
runs from / with PATH=/usr/bin:/bin. Without it this fix could regress
silently and invalidate T05's measurement — the whole point of the
control loop.
dep-weight's "cargo not on PATH" error is kept rather than deleted. It
should now be unreachable, and --self-test asserts cargo_bin() resolves
unaided; a control that never fires is cheaper than a regression.
loop-lint failed on repo.py on its first run — a reporting tool with a
positive control but no --self-test entry point. Second time the gate
has caught work from its own pass within the hour.
