//! The guard itself: payload in, decision out.
//!
//! ## The contract
//!
//! **Every failure path exits 0 having written nothing.** Unreadable payload,
//! unknown event, a tool that is not Bash, a command this crate's lexer cannot
//! parse, a working directory that no longer exists, a rule that panics, a
//! journal that cannot be written — all of them are silence.
//!
//! That is not defensiveness, it is the only posture that keeps the guard
//! installed. A hook that fails toward refusing gets in the way of work the
//! author knew was correct, and the fix a person reaches for at that moment is
//! to delete the whole thing from `settings.json`, which switches off every
//! rule at once. A hook that fails toward silence loses one firing.
//!
//! ## The order is a cost decision
//!
//! `examine` runs first and touches nothing. Only if something fires do we pay
//! for `git config` (one process per key) or `confirm` (one process, or a
//! directory read). This runs before every shell command the model issues, so
//! the no-fire path is the path that has to be free.
