fix(model-routing): ronde edge fixes — feater applier carve-out, /refactor→sonnet dispatch, /analyze gate, audit-pin guards (F1-F5)

 - model routing WAVE 3 (same branch): /bugfix + /code-clean split like /feat — reflection inline, sonnet executors (bugfixer, code-cleaner). code-clean refactor now runs on sonnet (inline-load pin was inert). consumers rerouted (hotfix deeper-bug→/bugfix skill; onboard/tour read-only audit→big-model agent). Explore kept built-in (inherits big). census 42/0, loops-light 35/0. Branch still unmerged.
 - model routing waves 1-3 MERGED into develop (e5c7c51); LRN-125 added. WAVE 4 started on feature/client-handover-dispatch (off develop): client-handover doc-gen → sonnet. REDACTION-ONLY (user flipped from whole-writer — nested audits must run big either way). client-handover-writer trimmed to ship pipeline (STEP 1-8 preserved byte-for-byte) + delegates writing to NEW sonnet handover-doc-writer (gate-free, STEP 9-16). client-handover joins gated group. census 46/0. NOTE: a Task-20 implementer ran `git checkout -- settings.json`, discarding user /model=opus working-tree state (LRN-098) — flagged to user (re-run /model). Lesson worth an LRN: constrain SDD implementers from git ops on files outside their task.
 - wave-4 FINAL REVIEW (opus whole-branch): all 7 deliverable invariants hold, child gate-free, PACKAGE complete. Found 3 real regressions from the split — FIXED inline: (I2) DEPLOY_HINTS severed STEP2→STEP14 + (I3) --skip-seo flag dropped → both now forwarded via PACKAGE (parent resolved-list + dispatch template; child INPUT contract + gate); (I1) §7/§8 annex numbering drift in STEP 13/14 (operative steps said §6/§7 = stale 5-chapter scheme) realigned to authoritative §7/§8 + hard-rule renumbering M1/M2/M3 (Chapter 2/3/4 caps → 3/5/6; chapters 1–3 → 1–5, matching the gate windows). census lock added: lacks 'Agent(' on child (M5). census 47/0, shellcheck clean. Branch NOT merged (awaiting human signal).
+- waves 1-4 MERGED to develop (d8917bf). LRN-126/127 added.
+- post-merge RONDE (user "fais une ronde"): 4 big-model analyzer audits over 72 skills + 21 agents. Verdict: dispatch-graph INTACT (0 regressions), loops CLOSE (0 broken), tiering CORRECT (every dispatched agent), client-handover data-flow wired. The refactor preserved/improved everything it touched. NOTE: darwin-skill is a skill-PROMPT optimizer (mutates SKILL.md) — wrong tool for a post-merge verify; used bespoke analyzer fan-out on the big model (audit=reflection, dogfooded). Ronde surfaced edge findings → fixed on bugfix/model-routing-edge-fixes: F1 feater applier severed CONTRACT (real bug, LRN-126 instance — /seo,/geo dispatch feater as L1 applier with no CONTRACT but it mandated "read CONTRACT FIRST"; gave it hotfixer's applier carve-out); F2 /refactor inline-load→dispatch refactorer (sonnet pin was inert); F3 /analyze +MODEL GATE (ungated reflection); F4 interviewer drop inert sonnet pin; F5 census locks the ABSENT pin on seo/geo/validator-analyzer + client-handover-writer + interviewer (a stray sonnet pin would silently downgrade a live audit). census 47→57.

+## 2026-07-16 — model-routing edge fixes (bugfix/model-routing-edge-fixes)
+Post-merge ronde (4 big-model audits: dispatch-graph INTACT, loops CLOSE,
+tiering CORRECT, data-flow client-handover wired). Fixing the edge findings
+the ronde surfaced. Branch off develop, unmerged — human gate.
+- [x] F1 (real bug) feater applier carve-out — /seo,/geo dispatch feater as
+      L1 applier with NO CONTRACT, but feater mandates "read CONTRACT FIRST"
+      (hotfixer has the carve-out, feater didn't) → mirror hotfixer.md:16-45.
+- [x] F5 (guard) census: lock the ABSENT model: pin on seo/geo/validator-
+      analyzer + client-handover-writer (stray sonnet pin would silently
+      downgrade a live audit, uncaught).
+- [x] F4 (cleanup) drop interviewer's inert `model: sonnet` (reflection role,
+      inline-loaded by gated init-project) + census guard.
+- [x] F2 (tier) /refactor inline-load → true-dispatch refactorer (sonnet pin
+      was inert). refactorer verified dispatch-safe (no Ask/Agent, input=target).
+- [x] F3 (gate) /analyze add MODEL GATE (inline-loads the analyzer reflection
+      agent, was ungated + undocumented). census: +analyze gated, +refactor excluded.
+- [x] verify: census 57/0, shellcheck clean (my files), full suite green; NO merge.
