//! The competition graph.

//! prep ──► implement ×N ──► judge ×M (blind) ──► split? ──► deliberate ──► vote (private)
//!                                                   │                          │

//!   merge ◄── gate ◄── review ×R + E2E, fix, repeat ◄── fold losers ◄──────── tally
//! ```
//!
//! Every node persists before the next one starts, so a run can be resumed
//! after a crash, a rate limit, or a reboot without re-spending the work that
//! already landed.
//!
//! The design decision that matters most is *where the facilitator lives*.
//! There is no moderator agent: magi assigns the labels, decides the
//! presentation order, relays the transcript, and collects the final votes
//! one-to-one. A moderator that never learns an author cannot leak one.
