OpenFleet reference implementation: @logicsrc/openfleet, logicsrc fleet, and Claude Code hooks (#185)

* OpenFleet reference implementation: @logicsrc/openfleet 0.1.0 and logicsrc fleet

Ship what docs/openfleet.md describes. The new workspace package holds the
record (write once, never overwrite, 0600), the ledger (append-only JSON
Lines, merged across ledger*.jsonl by at), the ceiling rules (whole fleet
ceiling, narrowed swarm keys, a merge that never widens, refusals by key),
claiming and deriving exactly as the spec's "Claiming and deriving" and
rule 13, and fold(), which turns any $OPENFLEET_HOME plus the engine
rosters into the tree the landing page shows.

logicsrc fleet open|cap|tree|stop|log are the sysop's verbs, every one with
--json. open and cap exit 4 when OPENFLEET_MEMBER is set; stop exits 4
outside the caller's subtree, ends nested swarms first, goes through each
member's own engine (claude stop, moshcode herd kill, tmux kill-pane, a
signal for claude-p) and writes one swarm.end per swarm. tree reads claude
agents --json --all and ~/.moshcode/herd/sessions.json when it can, draws
recordless sessions as roster roots of the implicit fleet, and writes
member.end lost for a recorded member its engine no longer lists.

Claude Code takes part through hooks: logicsrc fleet hooks install merges
SessionStart, UserPromptSubmit, PreToolUse, Stop and SessionEnd into
~/.claude/settings.json without clobbering it, and logicsrc fleet hook
<Event> runs each one. SessionStart claims, derives or writes a root record
and hands the member its variables through CLAUDE_ENV_FILE; UserPromptSubmit
checks the ceiling with the permission mode the engine reports and writes
member.start, or refuses the first prompt with exit 2 and ceiling.refuse;
PreToolUse denies an edit outside piece.owns; Stop and SessionEnd write
member.end. A hand-started root takes the engine's reported approvals
before member.start, since the command line only guesses them. Hooks
never fail the engine: everything is caught and logged to hooks.log.

The spec and the landing page now say what ships, keep Status 0.1, and
record the two verified Claude Code limits: a background job dispatched from
claude agents gets no launcher environment, and OPENFLEET_* exported at
SessionStart reach the member's tools but not later hooks, so hooks key on
session_id through $OPENFLEET_HOME/sessions/<session_id>.json. PRD 0008
covers the work. CLI 0.2.1 -> 0.3.0; build and build:cli chains build the
package before the CLI; README and docs/cli.md list the group.

Tests: 95 in the package (record, ledger merge, every narrower case, the
worked example's claim and derive, the folded tree, hook install
idempotence, each hook handler including the exit-2 refusal and the
PreToolUse deny, every verb with fake deps) and 4 in the CLI.

* OpenFleet fix round: rebuild the ceiling from the ledger, once-markers, rule 6 in tree, lost only for what a roster can hold

The review of the reference implementation against moshcode found the two
readers disagreeing on the same files. This round applies the shared
rulings so both sides read a ledger the same way.

Ceiling (R-A, R-B, R-C, R1, R6, R10, R15, R17): memberCeiling rebuilds the
effective ceiling from the ledger on every read. The latest fleet-target
fleet.cap (else fleet.open, else the implicit fleet's) replaces the copy in
a record, so a sysop's widening cap reaches running members; then each
swarm.spawn narrowing down the path, then swarm caps last. In the implicit
fleet a parentless record's own approvals enters at the root; a ceiling a
writer left without the key is never read as native, and startMember fills
it with the engine's word while the record is unclaimed. A fleet.open or
cap with no hosts means the host it was written on (R23).

Once-markers (R-G, R28): member.start, member.end and swarm.end each take
an exclusive create under fleets/<fleet>/marks/<event>.<id> before the
append; a lost end takes <id>.lost so a real end can still supersede it.
The hooks let a real end follow a lost line (R9).

tree (R-F, R20): run by the sysop it enforces rule 6, stopping a member
past its effective until with state timeout and the members of a swarm or
fleet at its budget with state budget, then writes swarm.end for each swarm
touched once it is complete. An agent's tree stops nothing. lost is written
only for a member its engine's roster can hold: a claude-code background job
(8-hex member or session) or a moshcode pane, never an interactive session
claude agents does not list (R-E, R3, R14). A nested swarm is drawn under
the member that spawned it and its row shows the effective ceiling (R25).

stop and cap (R-D, R-H, R22, R27): swarm.end is written only once every
member and every nested swarm has an end line that counts; an engine that
will not end a member leaves it without an end line and the verb exits
non-zero. claude stop takes the job id: the member of a background job,
else the first eight characters of a session UUID; an interactive session
with no job id cannot be stopped and the tool says so. cap on a swarm
refuses a key that would widen. A derived claude-code job is named by its
job id and carries no pid.

Also: R-I (endMember ends only the engine-minted swarm of one), R35 (a
derived record's guessed approvals corrected at UserPromptSubmit), R32
(the UserPromptSubmit hook passes only exit 2 through), R31 (package
README), R36 (rule 13 says the launcher test is unimplemented in 0.1),
docs and PRD 0008 updated for lost, rule 6 and the markers. 113 openfleet
tests, 93 CLI tests, contract green.

* openfleet hooks: no member.end for a member that never started

A first prompt refused by the ceiling still lets the session wind down through Stop and SessionEnd; those handlers now write nothing when the ledger holds no member.start for the member, so a refused member is never drawn as done.
