Safer package checks and ingestion

Version 0.44.1 keeps verification inside the changed package and preserves live ingest locks.

Version 0.44.1 corrects the ingestion and project verification problems reviewed in PR #1124.

The review reproduces incorrect package commands and incomplete test recommendations. It also identifies unsafe installer files and premature replacement of live ingest locks. Regression tests cover these cases.

  • Package verification: Checks use the Git root and the nearest package manifest. Each changed package receives its own test recommendation. New packages are included.
  • Command safety: Package paths receive shell quotation. Unknown package managers produce no executable guess. Compiler fallbacks use local files, including hoisted installations, without registry downloads.
  • Discovery boundaries: Package discovery rejects paths and symbolic links that lead outside the checkout.
  • Ingestion: Derive-only runs have no implicit shared deadline. Explicit timeout settings retain precedence. A live process keeps its ingest lock regardless of age.
  • Setup: The installer uses a private temporary directory. Download failure, review failure, declined approval, or end of input stops installation.
  • Skills and documentation: Dojo frontmatter parses correctly and no longer requires the retired database daemon. The command reference documents the tools option for weighted skill results.

For an npm package in frontend/, verification can recommend:

npm --prefix frontend run typecheck
npm --prefix frontend run test

To update an existing installation:

ax update
ax --version

A timed-out ingest in another live process continues to hold its lock. That process must exit before another process can take the lock. The existing check/remove race remains tracked in issue #789.

The release range contains the reviewed correction and the version update. The release PR passes CI, including tests, TypeScript checks, the build, and compiled CLI smoke checks.
