Martin Vogel db26e9615e fix(ci): stop gating the release on how many VirusTotal engines answered
The build+VT dry-run (run 31744302624) blocked all eight targets on:

  BLOCKED: objects/3eb486a4... completed with only 48/75 decisive engines (< 50)

That object is the windows-arm64 STRIPPED candidate with ZERO detections. It
was classified "hard" — the same bucket as a real malware verdict — purely
because 48 engines answered instead of 50. Its own sibling scanned clean with
66.

How many engines return a decisive result is VirusTotal fleet availability on
the day, not a property of our binary. These artifacts are ~300 MB and many
engines skip or time out at that size, so the count sits near the floor and
moves run to run: on this run one object landed at 48 and the other fifteen
spread 59-68. A floor there makes shipping a lottery decided by someone else's
infrastructure, which is exactly what our CI-determinism rule forbids, and it is
not something we can influence by fixing anything on our side.

Classification now depends only on what engines FOUND:
  hard        - two or more engines, any non-Microsoft engine, any label that is
                not `!ml`, or anything suspicious. Still blocks the release.
  microsoft-ml- exactly one Microsoft `!ml`. Tolerated and disclosed.
  clean       - nothing flagged.

The decisive-engine count is still recorded per candidate in the results
manifest and printed as a NOTE when it is below the reference value, so the
evidence is unchanged; only its power to block is gone. The selector keeps
rejecting an incoherent response (total < completed).

Public claims updated to match in README.md, SECURITY.md and docs/index.html —
all three promised "at least 50 decisive engines" as a publication requirement,
which would no longer have been true.

Contract test updated: a clean verdict now stands regardless of engine count,
and the below-reference NOTE must still be reported. All three release contract
tests pass (vt-gate-policy, release-gate-chain, candidate-derivation).

scripts/ci/ — venue plumbing (single implementations)

Support scripts that keep the venues in the SAME shape. Each exists because the logic used to live inline in workflow YAML or was hand-duplicated between CI and the local infrastructure — both of which the venue-parity contract (tests/test_venue_parity_contract.sh) now forbids. Everything here answers --help (PowerShell: comment-based help, Get-Help <script>).

script job called by
new-protected-temp-root.ps1 Create the owner-stamped, inheritance-protected per-user TEMP root the daemon/install suites require (shared /tmp and default runner TEMP grant Authenticated-Users mutation rights, which the trust policy correctly refuses — running there produces security refusals, not signal). -ProtectDir stamps build dirs the same way. _test.yml, _soak.yml, vm-run-tests.sh
clean-test-residue.ps1 Sweep cbm-* residue from the Windows VM and assert runner-like free disk (default 14 GB — the GitHub runner's SSD). Long-path \\?\ fallback for the guard suites' adversarial trees; every removal VERIFIED (an earlier version counted attempts and reported 86 swept while 11 GB remained). BLOCKS below the floor: a disk that fills mid-run reads as a product bug. win.sh before every build/run
preflight-docker.sh Same idea for Colima/docker: prune runner-unlike residue, assert free space on the filesystem backing the docker data root (not the VM's /). Build cache + named volumes KEPT (the local analogue of actions/cache); --deep drops them. test-infrastructure/run.sh
