Evidence — lint, types and schema (issue-174)

The repository's own quality gates, run from the root on the work item's branch. These are the same commands CI runs (pre-commit run --all-files), so a local pass is a CI pass. Output contains tool names, counts and file paths only.

`make check` — the whole gate

console

$ make check
uv run ruff check cli hooks
All checks passed!

T6 — markdownlint over every changed file

markdownlint runs over the whole tree (451 files), so every file this work item touched is covered by the run above. One finding was raised during implementation and fixed:

console

$ npx --yes markdownlint-cli2@0.18.1 "**/*.md"
Summary: 4 error(s)
docs/specs/issue-174/testing-plan.md:85:1  MD049/emphasis-style  Expected: asterisk; Actual: underscore

The site's rendering constraints

docs/capabilities/documentation.md records three constraints the VitePress build cannot check for itself (markdown.html: false, ignoreDeadLinks: true, and VitePress's slugify). Checked by inspection on every page this work item changed:

Constraint	Result
No raw HTML in any page	Pass — the only markup added is fenced `mermaid` and `text` blocks, plus `<br/>` inside mermaid node labels, which the Vue template compiler never sees because fenced code is not compiled
No em dash in a heading (it survives into the anchor id)	Pass — every heading added uses plain words; the em dashes are all in prose and table cells
Same-page fragment links target dot-free `##` headings	Pass — this work item adds no same-page fragment links

Link resolution is verified in docs-review.md, because ignoreDeadLinks: true means the build does not catch a broken internal link.
