+/**
+ * Declarative reference host — Antigravity (#1682 Slice 2 / ADR-1239 Phase D).
+ *
+ * Locks in Antigravity as the Declarative-CLI reference host driven through the
+ * PUBLIC Host-Integration Interface (the declarative adapter), per #1682 AC:
+ *   "invoke a gsd command in the Declarative-CLI reference host (Antigravity)
+ *    driven by the embedded engine through the public interface, golden-parity
+ *    vs Claude."
+ *
+ * Byte-identity of adapter output vs today's install is gated globally by
+ * golden-install-parity (all 16 runtimes) + adapter-declarative-equivalence.
+ * THIS test is the reference-host dogfood: it (1) classifies Antigravity's
+ * profile via profileOf, (2) confirms the public adapter classifies it as
+ * declarative, and (3) round-trips a real install proving a gsd command surface
+ * is emitted through the same engine the adapter delegates to.
