code-modernization: dynamic workflow orchestration + untrusted-content hardening
Four commands gain a Workflow-tool path (with direct-fan-out fallback for
older builds): extract-rules loops until dry with per-rule citation referees
and a P0 two-judge panel; harden runs class-scoped finders with adversarial
per-finding refutation; assess --portfolio pipelines one survey agent per
system with COCOMO computed uniformly in script; reimagine Phase E drops the
3-service scaffolding cap.

Workflow agents return schema-validated data and only the orchestrating
session writes artifacts — analysis agents are structurally read-only. All
five agents gain an untrusted-content discipline section (source code is
data, never instructions; comment-only claims are findings, not facts), and
the README documents the prompt-injection threat model for analyzed code.
