+ * FR-6 (feature `hook-recall-hybrid-parity`, ADR-001 C-4): send ONE `op: recall` probe to a LIVE
+ * embed daemon socket and report the `engine` it answers with (`'hybrid'` | `'cosine-fallback'`) —
+ * `dz doctor` prints this so an operator can SEE which engine is actually serving prompts, rather
+ * than trusting the daemon's mere presence. Honest-degrade contract, matching every other doctor
+ * probe: a non-socket path (e.g. a plain file, as every non-live doctor fixture in this repo uses),
+ * a connection error, an unparsable reply, or a timeout all resolve to `undefined` — NEVER a thrown
+ * error, and never distinguishable from "no daemon" in the caller's output (the existing "socket
+ * present/absent" line already carries that half of the truth).
+ *
+ * `timeoutMs` defaults to 1000 ms — comfortably above the documented `HOOK_RECALL_BUDGET_MS` default
+ * (500 ms): under that default, a cold `recallHybrid` semantic leg routinely exceeds the budget in
+ * this environment (MEASURED — see the manifest's NFR-1 discussion), so the daemon's OWN answer
+ * time is closer to ~500-550 ms than to the socket round-trip cost alone; a shorter probe timeout
+ * would silently miss a live, correctly-answering daemon and report no engine at all.
+ *
+ * AM-8 (fix round 1): lives HERE, not in `operations.ts` — this module already owns the daemon's
+ * wire protocol (`recallHookSource`/`embedDaemonSource`'s generated `op: recall` handshake) and its
+ * socket-path resolution; `operations.ts`'s `runDoctor` reaches it via a dynamic `import()`
+ * (matching its existing `embed-socket-path.js` import one line above the call site) rather than
+ * duplicating a second, independent `node:net` IO surface in a file whose job is orchestration, not
+ * protocol.

+ * Bumped 4→5 (feature `hook-recall-hybrid-parity`, ADR-001 D1/D2): the daemon's `op: recall`

+ * preserving today's cosine-calibrated floor unchanged for the `cosine-fallback` path.

+ * (a) fires a fire-and-forget engine warm-up before `listen()` (AM-1) so the first REAL `op: recall`
+ * is less likely to pay a cold `resolveAgentdbEmbedder` init; (b) arms the budget timer BEFORE
+ * `loadCoreModule()`, not after (AM-2, wall clock from request receipt); (c) treats ANY failure
+ * past the budget race — a malformed hit, `patternRecordId()` throwing — as an honest cosine
+ * fallback rather than a bare protocol error (AM-3); (d) reports the RAW core RRF score, unchanged,
+ * instead of a locally re-normalized [0,1] value (AM-5) — the hook's own `HOOK_SCORE_FLOOR` default
+ * moved from `0.01` to `0.005` to match (see that constant's own comment for the measurement).
+ *
+ * Bumped 6→7 (feature `apply-leg-install-root`, ADR-001 D1): both generated files now resolve
+ * `PROJECT` install-root-first (`INSTALL_ROOT` = this file's own location, when it owns a `.dz/`)
+ * instead of trusting a foreign session's `CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR`/cwd (issue #2) — the hook's own
+ * `[dz-recall]` diagnostic line also gains `root=<path> (install|env|cwd)`.
+ *
+ * Bumped 7→8 (`apply-leg-install-root`, fix round 1, AM-7 HIGH — real regression MEASURED via
+ * `retro-debt-hook.test.ts` going 4/5 red on the v7 hub helper): `PROJECT` install-root-first is
+ * correct for the STORE (pattern db, socket, daemon script) but WRONG for a per-session artifact —
+ * the narrated-error retro-debt sentinel (`retro-pending.json`) is written by the INVOKING
+ * SESSION's own Stop hook under `CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR`, not under wherever the hook happens to be
+ * installed; a shared $HOME install made the hook look for a foreign session's sentinel under the
+ * install root and silently drop every session's own debt confrontation. Split: `PROJECT` (install-
+ * root-first) stays the STORE root; a new `SESSION_ROOT` (`CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR || cwd()`, the
+ * pre-feature resolution, unchanged) is the root for `RETRO_PENDING` — the ONE per-session file this
+ * hook reads (every other `PROJECT`-derived path in this file names the store, the daemon, or the
+ * harness-core install, confirmed by grep against every `path.join(PROJECT, …)` site). The diag line
+ * gains `session=<path>` alongside the existing `root=<path> (…)`.
+ *
+ * Bumped 8→9 (feature `apply-leg-never-silent`, ADR-001 D2, FR-1): every early return in `main()`
+ * now prints `[dz-recall] skipped reason=<store-not-found|socket-absent|core-unavailable|
+ * empty-prompt|no-hits> root=<path> (…) session=<path>` on stderr before returning — the hook used
+ * to exit silently on every one of these paths, indistinguishable (from stderr alone) from a
+ * correctly-quiet "nothing relevant" outcome. `embedDaemonSource`'s own bytes are UNCHANGED by this
+ * bump; the shared version number still advances because both helpers are upgraded as one unit by
+ * `dz setup`/`applyLegStatus`.
+ *
+ * Bumped 9→10 (`apply-leg-never-silent`, fix round 1 — cross-model review AM-3/AM-6): (a) the hook
+ * now tags its `op: recall` request with `probe: <bool>` (true only when
+ * `DZ_HOOK_LIVENESS_PROBE=1`, the env {@link "./operations.js".probeHookLiveness} already stamps on
+ * every live-probe spawn) so the daemon can tell a genuine session prompt apart from
+ * `probeApplyLeg`'s own beacon query — AM-3: a beacon written for the ~8s of a doctor/parity probe
+ * used to be recallable by ANY concurrent real prompt in the SAME project, a probe-only fixture
+ * leaking into a real session's context; (b) `askDaemon`'s every failure path used to collapse into
+ * one `undefined`, forcing the hook's own `skip('socket-absent')` call regardless of what actually
+ * went wrong — AM-6: it now returns a tagged `{error: 'socket-absent'|'connect-refused'|
+ * 'daemon-timeout'|'bad-reply'}` so the stderr reason names the ACTUAL failure (no socket file vs a
+ * non-socket file at that path vs a listener that never replies vs a listener that replies with
+ * something unparseable/shapeless). `embedDaemonSource`'s bytes also change for AM-3: `loadPatterns`
+ * now reads each row's `domain` out of the SAME metadata JSON `dzIdOf`/`quarantinedOf` already
+ * parse (the vector mirror carries no separate domain column), and both `hybridRecall`'s hits and
+ * the cosine-fallback `scored` array are filtered to exclude `domain === 'apply-leg-probe'` unless
