//! Standing rules shared by every seat of this user, and by every machine
//! that shares the tracker repository.
//!
//! `ljos prefer --user` and `ljos rule --user` write them. The copy the
//! hooks read is the user config, not the pack, so the review clock never
//! sees them. The tracker carries one file per machine, and a sync merges
//! those files by id.
//!
//! A row written before `basis` was kept has neither `basis` nor `from`.
//! It stays in the preface, marked not confirmed, until the person runs
//! `ljos prefer --user --review --keep`. The cutoff is a local receipt
//! written once by the first person-side command. A row written after
//! that receipt with no basis stays out. A hook does not write the
//! receipt: it runs under the runner.
