fix(workflows): assert HEAD on per-agent branch before worktree commits (#2924) (#2941)

* fix(workflows): assert HEAD on per-agent branch before worktree commits

Worktree-mode setup could leave HEAD attached to a protected branch (master),
causing agent commits to land there. The previous response was a destructive
self-recovery via 'git update-ref refs/heads/master <sha>', which silently
rewinds the protected branch and destroys concurrent commits in multi-active
scenarios (parallel agents, user committing while agent runs).

- Reorder <worktree_branch_check> in execute-phase.md and quick.md to assert
  HEAD via 'git symbolic-ref' BEFORE any 'git reset --hard'. HALT with a
  blocker if HEAD is on main/master/develop/trunk/release/* or detached.
- Add a per-commit HEAD assertion (step 0) to gsd-executor.md
  <task_commit_protocol>; HEAD attachment can drift after 'git checkout <sha>'.
- Forbid 'git update-ref refs/heads/<protected>' in
  <destructive_git_prohibition>; surface the blocker rather than self-heal.
- Remove '--no-verify' as the worktree-mode default in execute-phase.md,
  execute-plan.md, quick.md, and references/git-integration.md. Hooks now
  run on every executor commit; opt out only via workflow.worktree_skip_hooks.
- Add regression test that parses the worktree_branch_check blocks structurally
  and asserts the symbolic-ref check precedes the reset --hard, no workflow
  performs update-ref on a protected ref, and --no-verify is no longer the
  default in any parallel-execution prompt.

* fix(#2924): address CodeRabbit review findings on worktree HEAD PR

- Add positive worktree-agent-* allow-list to <task_commit_protocol> step 0
  in gsd-executor.md and to <worktree_branch_check> in execute-phase.md and
  quick.md. The deny-list (main|master|develop|trunk|release/*) silently
  allowed feature/* and other arbitrary branches outside the agent namespace.
- Register workflow.worktree_skip_hooks in both config schemas
  (sdk/src/query/config-schema.ts and get-shit-done/bin/lib/config-schema.cjs)
  and document it in docs/CONFIGURATION.md so config-set accepts it.
- Fix stash lifecycle in execute-phase.md post-wave hook validation: stash
  under a named ref and pop after the hook run; warn on pop failure.
- Pre-dispatch PLAN.md commit in quick.md: gate on git diff --cached --quiet
  for idempotency and exit 1 with a clear error on commit failure (both the
  --no-verify and the normal branches) — no more swallowing real errors.
- Test fixes (tests/bug-2924-worktree-head-attachment.test.cjs):
  - Parse the protected-branch alternation structurally and require
    main, master, develop, trunk, release/.* (release/* was previously
    skipped by the \\b...\\b regex).
  - Use fs.readdirSync(dir, { recursive: true }) so workflows in nested
    subdirectories are also asserted against the update-ref ban.
  - Add allow-list assertions for execute-phase.md, quick.md, and
    gsd-executor.md to lock in the new positive namespace check.

Your commits may trigger pre-commit hooks. Auto-fix hooks handle themselves transparently — files get fixed and re-staged automatically.
**If running as a parallel executor agent (spawned by execute-phase):**
Use `--no-verify` on all commits. Pre-commit hooks cause build lock contention when multiple agents commit simultaneously (e.g., cargo lock fights in Rust projects). The orchestrator validates once after all agents complete.
Run commits normally — let pre-commit hooks run. Do NOT use `--no-verify` by default
(#2924). Hooks should run so issues surface at the introducing commit, and silent
bypass violates project CLAUDE.md guidance. If a project explicitly opts out via
`workflow.worktree_skip_hooks=true`, the orchestrator will surface that flag in the
prompt; absent that signal, hooks run normally. If a hook fails, follow the
sequential-mode handling below.
