feat(harness): subagent receipt citation verification (#5076)
* feat(harness): subagent receipt citation verification

- add receipt citation verification core
- harvest subagent tool receipts at terminal status
- transport subagent receipts and citation verdict via status contract
- verify subagent report citations at task write-back
- render citation verdicts in the delegation ledger

* fix(gateway): strip forged receipt verdicts from the delegations channel

normalize_input() and the checkpoint-state mutation sanitizer only
stripped server-owned metadata from message-shaped values, so an
external caller could submit a delegation entry carrying a forged
receipt_verdict that render_delegation_ledger would present as
runtime-owned execution evidence. Strip receipt_verdict from
caller-supplied delegation entries on both the run-creation and
thread-state mutation paths, with regression coverage for each.

* fix(harness): close silent-pass gaps in the zero-citation heuristic

The action-claim detector missed the most common completion verbs
(fixed/added/tested/changed/...) and had no CJK coverage at all, so
reports like 'I fixed the bug and added tests.' or '我已经创建了文件并运行了测试。'
were treated as claim-free: citation_resolved=True with no ledger
warning. Broaden the verb lists and add a language-independent safety
net: when the run harvested receipts and a nontrivial (>=240 char)
report cites none of them, flag it UNVERIFIED. Short claim-free
confirmations remain a vacuous pass.

feat(harness): deterministic tool receipts with model-visible ledger (RFC #4651, layer 1) (#4659)
* feat(harness): add deterministic tool receipts with model-visible ledger

Stamp an immutable per-call fact record (tool name, status, args/output
hashes, byte count, timestamp) onto every tool result via a new
ToolReceiptMiddleware, and inject the derived receipt ledger (r1..rN)
into the model context so subagent reports can cite executed actions.

- tool_receipt.py: receipt core (make/extract/render), newest-first
  budget eviction, ids derived from the append-only message stream
- ToolReceiptMiddleware: stamps ToolMessages directly or inside
  Command-wrapped results; hidden ledger injection mirrors
  DurableContextMiddleware; sits between ToolProgress and
  ToolErrorHandling with a build-time ordering guard
- config: new verification section (receipts on, judge off), config
  version 32 -> 33 with example/helm/docs updates

* feat(harness): split receipt rendering from stamping; address PR review

Review fixes (PR #4659):
- output_sha256 now uses sort_keys=True for structured content, matching
  the order-invariant args fingerprint
- stamping failures log at warning (silent ledger gaps would corrupt
  citations); tool execution remains never blocked
- _insert_after_leading_system_messages extracted to shared public
  message_utils.insert_after_leading_system_messages; both middlewares
  depend on it instead of a private cross-module helper
- code comments in English

RFC #4651 revision-2 alignment:
- receipts_render_mode config ('always' | 'delegation_only'): subagent
  chains always render the ledger (citations are produced there); the
  lead chain renders only while processing subagent results, removing
  the always-on token tax from ordinary turns
- receipts gain bounded args_preview/output_preview (<=200 chars, tail
  for output) so later typed claim bindings (tests_passed) can anchor
  to a specific recorded execution

* docs(harness): state receipt freshness caveat and vocabulary layering in module docstring

* merge: upstream/main — resolve AGENTS.md split, bump config_version to 34, drop unused receipt previews

- backend/AGENTS.md: take upstream's slimmed root guidance (#4799); move the
  ToolReceiptMiddleware chain entry into agents/middlewares/AGENTS.md and the
  verification.* hot-reload mention into config/AGENTS.md
- config.example.yaml + helm values/README: config_version 33 -> 34 so existing
  v33 configs get the outdated-config prompt (review: willem-bd)
- tool_receipt.py: drop args_preview/output_preview — no Layer 1 consumer reads
  them; re-add with the Layer 2 claim-binding consumer (review: willem-bd)

* docs(harness): cover receipt id renumbering after compaction in module docstring

Positional display ids are stable only while history is append-only;
compaction drops ToolMessages and the survivors renumber, so Layer 2
citation verification must resolve [rN] against the ledger as of the
citing turn (review: willem-bd, doc-only).

* chore(config): bump config_version to 35

main reached 34 via #4780 without the verification section; publishing
the new schema at the same number would silently skip the outdated-config
prompt for configs synced from main in that window (review: willem-bd).

* fix(skills): restore errno import dropped upstream in #4830

upstream/main adf6c422 uses errno.ENOTDIR in the drift guard but removed
the import, so the PR merge ref fails lint-backend (F821).

* fix(harness): harden tool receipts against forgery and turn-scope delegation_only

Address willem-bd's pre-merge review on #4659:

1. Untrusted receipt metadata: the gateway now strips the server-owned
   deerflow_tool_receipt key from external input messages; stamping always
   overwrites any tool-supplied value instead of preserving it; and
   extract_tool_receipts validates persisted receipt shapes (required typed
   fields, unknown keys ignored) so malformed entries are skipped instead of
   crashing render or passing as runtime-stamped evidence.

2. delegation_only no longer sticks on: _should_render now scopes the
   subagent_status scan to the current turn (messages after the latest
   genuine user message), so an old completed delegation stops rendering the
   ledger on later ordinary turns. The genuine-user predicate moves to
   message_utils.is_genuine_user_message, shared with input sanitization.

* fix(harness): stamp receipts outside short-circuiting tool middlewares

Address willem-bd's review on #4659: ToolReceiptMiddleware was registered
inside Guardrail/SandboxAudit/ReadBeforeWrite/ToolProgress, each of which
can return a ToolMessage without invoking its handler — blocked calls
(e.g. a read-before-write-denied write_file) never got a receipt, silently
gapping the ledger on a default-enabled path. SandboxAudit additionally
rebuilds medium-risk results, dropping an inner stamp.

ToolReceiptMiddleware is now the outermost wrap_tool_call layer in the
runtime tail. Normal results still carry deerflow_tool_meta (stamped by
ToolErrorHandling on the inner return path); short-circuit messages
self-stamp meta or fall back to message.status. The new invariant is
declared as ordering constraints in deerflow.extensions.ordering, with
composed-chain regression tests for a blocked write and a warn-rebuilt
bash result.
