The gates existed; CI ran half of them and tolerated the failure case.
- cb-sim no longer has a "tolerable" non-zero exit. An unregistered game
prefix is a failure, and a run in which nothing executed is a failure.
Previously CI carried `|| test $? -eq 2`, so renaming a scenario prefix
would have skipped every scenario while the pipeline stayed green.
Verified with a negative control.
- CI now runs make coverage (AM-1) and make dep-weight (AM-4), both
added after CI was written and neither enforced until now.
- dep-weight enforces its targets instead of only reporting them.
- CI lints the shipped-runtime configuration separately, so the feature
split cannot rot unnoticed.
- Dropped the stale `make deps` target, which still measured the retired
crate-count metric.
The positive-control rule is now executable: CI runs
`cargo bench -- --test`, which executes every benchmark once, so a
workload that stalls fails the build.
That step immediately found a fourth instance of the error class it was
written for. The committed replay benchmark was the broken version — an
earlier patch never applied, leaving a command sequence that omits
Resolve, so every round produced nothing and the log-building loop spun
forever. It had never run to completion; the reported AM-7 replay
numbers came from a probe test instead. Fixed, given the same positive
control as the round loop, and re-measured from the benchmark: 100k
events fold in 2.18ms (95% CI 2.14-2.23), against a 5s budget.
Evidence now reports confidence intervals rather than point estimates,
so the 3% regression rule in MetricsAndScenarios is enforceable.
The finding worth carrying: writing the positive-control rule into
InnerLoop v1.0 did not prevent the next instance. Making it a CI step
did.
