"""Check kings-guard against the NetKingdom security layer model (§5, §11).

Read-only. kings-guard's whole position under the standard rests on one claim:

    it holds no direct client for any Tooling-layer system, and the
    capabilities that would need one sit at zero instead (§11 blocked-clean)

That claim has been asserted in prose since KG-DEC-2026-001. §11 (v0.7) requires
a machine-readable declaration because prose cannot distinguish a declaration
from a transcribed review. This script is what makes the claim checkable: it
fails if a Tooling client appears in src/ without a matching layer.yaml entry.

The failure it exists to catch is a *convenience* — someone reaching for an
OpenBao or cluster client during an incident because the engine surface still
does not exist (§9.2). That is precisely the "small convenience" §6 warns about,
and it would arrive as a one-line import.

Declaration form (GH-DEC-2026-017, amendments A9, A11, A12): INTENT.md's
frontmatter `layer:` key governs; layer.yaml is a derived artifact that must be
marked derived, name INTENT.md, and agree with it. Layer comparison ASCII-folds
case against §3's closed four-token vocabulary, so `Staff` and `staff` agree and
neither file is re-spelled. A disagreement that survives the fold is reported as
a finding, not resolved by precedence. Neither form may carry a version of the
standard or its companion in any key or value (A12 r2, GH-DEC-2026-020 §1–§2):
not only a key named `standard_version`, but `companion_version`, any other
version key, and a version-bearing path or file name such as a `standard:` of
`…security-layer-model_v0.7.md`. Comments are not read (YAML drops them) and
`schema_version` is the sidecar's own schema, so neither is reached. Only
INTENT.md frontmatter and layer.yaml are read for A12: stance, claims and
classification maps are not declarations and this run never applies A12 to them
(GH-DEC-2026-020 §3).

A bare revision citation in a prose value — `layer.yaml` cites "v0.6 §13" as
provenance in a gap record — is reported on every run, not failed: whether A12 r2's
"any value" reaches a citation rather than a pin is raised with gate-house by
kings-guard (see decisions/decisions.md KG-DEC-2026-005), not settled here.

Every run prints, first, the standard version this check was built and validated
against (VALIDATED_AGAINST) and the scope it ranges over (SCOPE), including runs
that fail (GH-DEC-2026-020 §4). A run is sufficient; nothing durable is emitted.

Review dates are reported, never enforced: a date-triggered failure breaks the
build on a calendar day with no code change.

Exit 0 clean, 1 undeclared contact found or the two declaration forms disagree,
2 declaration malformed.
