SDD Gate Runner

Framework skill — routes to framework/layers/09_CHG/gates/ (GATE-01, GATE-03, GATE-06, GATE-08, GATE-CODE, GATE-SPEC), GATE_ERROR_CATALOG.md, and GATE_INTERACTION_DIAGRAM.md. Paths below use <skills-root> = this framework/skills/ directory.

1. Select gates by touch

Run the gates for the layers the change touches, not the whole battery by default: GATE-01 for business/product surface, GATE-03 for requirements and architecture, GATE-06 for design and test, GATE-08 for the IPLAN itself, GATE-CODE for any code or implementation artifact, GATE-SPEC for normative framework/ edits. A skill-only change still runs the structural and conformance gates on its PR — "docs-only" is a scope statement, not a verification waiver.

2. Dispose every finding

Every finding resolves through GATE_ERROR_CATALOG.md: fix the cause in the worktree and re-run to green. Additive findings (index rows, registry entries, pins) resolve directly; semantic findings (logic, policy, contradicted contracts) mean stop and escalate — never route around a red gate with a skip flag or an admin override.

3. Merge only on green

When a required check fails, fix every error from the failed logs, push, and re-watch from the new head — a previous run's green is not this commit's. Stop and report to the human when the same check fails twice after a fix attempt, or when the fix reaches beyond the PR's scope.
