+ *   - Frontmatter: overlay keys override the global's; a key absent from the

+ *   - Body: an overlay with a non-empty body replaces the global body wholesale
+ *     (the pre-merge behavior); a frontmatter-only overlay (`body.trim() === ''`)
+ *     inherits the global body.
+ *   - `model: inherit` in an overlay is a real value that WINS: it means "defer
+ *     to the settings default", NOT "fall back to the global persona's model".
+ *     (Callers already treat `inherit` as "use the fallback model".) A project
+ *     that wants the global model simply omits the key.
+ *   - An overlay with no global counterpart is the whole persona (standalone).
+ *   - A MALFORMED overlay (opens a `---` frontmatter fence that never closes)
+ *     is ignored, reported once via opsErrorLog, and the global persona
+ *     applies — it never throws and never lets a half-parsed file pick the
+ *     model. With no global to degrade to, the persona is unresolvable (null).
+ *
+ * SECURITY: only the two paths `epicMint.cjs`'s `resolvePersonaPaths` yields
