+/**
+ * Review-Gate governance — road-to-team-mode Phase 4.
+ *
+ * The codex plugin's Stop-hook Review Gate (upstream: `codex@openai-codex`,
+ * `scripts/stop-review-gate-hook.mjs`) can BLOCK every Stop and re-trigger a
+ * Claude↔Codex loop without any bound — upstream's own README warns: "The
+ * review gate can create a long-running Claude/Codex loop and may drain
+ * usage limits quickly." The gate itself stays upstream's; this module owns
+ * the GOVERNANCE:
+ *
+ *   1. Parse the gate transcript's first-line contract — upstream's prompt
+ *      (`prompts/stop-review-gate.md`) demands the first line be exactly
+ *      `ALLOW: <reason>` or `BLOCK: <reason>`. Anything else is honestly
+ *      `UNKNOWN` and is NEVER counted as a BLOCK.
+ *   2. Count CONSECUTIVE BLOCK verdicts per session (state: one small JSON
+ *      under `agents/runtime/state/`, same convention as the other hook
+ *      concerns, written via the shared `state_io` lock). ALLOW resets.
+ *   3. At `ai_team.review_gate.max_consecutive_blocks`, surface a visible
+ *      circuit-breaker notice EXACTLY ONCE and report the circuit as open
+ *      (the managed layer stops re-blocking — the user decides).
+ *   4. Ledger: one events-log line per gate verdict (`team.gate: BLOCK 2/3`
+ *      / `ALLOW reset`) under `agents/runtime/team/events.log`, following
+ *      the council events-log convention (`src/scripts/ai_council/
+ *      events_log.ts`: schema_version + ts_utc + compact JSON line, honours
+ *      the same `AGENT_CONFIG_NO_EVENTS_LOG` kill-switch, no free-form
+ *      content — verdict enum + counter only, PII-excluded by construction).
+ *
+ * Composition point (documented, not yet manifest-wired): the minimal
+ * call-site is `src/scripts/team_review_gate_hook.ts`, a `stop` concern in
+ * the dispatcher shape. Claude Code gives sibling Stop hooks no view of the
+ * plugin gate's own stdout, so the hook reads the gate verdict from the
+ * plugin's persisted job record (`jobs/<id>.json` → `result.rawOutput`,
+ * title `Codex Stop Gate Review`) — see `find_latest_gate_transcript`.
+ * Registering the concern in `src/scripts/hook_manifest.yaml` (claude/
+ * cowork `stop`, after `chat-history`) is the one remaining wiring step;
+ * it drags the manifest lint + installer + tests/hooks snapshot surface and
+ * is deliberately left to the orchestrator. With
+ * `ai_team.review_gate.managed: false` (default) every entry point here is
+ * a no-op — byte-identical pre-Phase-4 behavior.
