+      # already loud on the NIGHTLY: `nightly-tiers.mjs --check` refuses to run
+      # past such a package — but the refusal blocks the whole tier run for one
+      # package's omission, one nightly after the PR that introduced it landed.
+      # This is the per-PR half, and it is deliberately the STATIC one: --check
+      # boots vitest twice per tier-owning package to measure what it collects,
+      # which is the right instrument for a nightly and the wrong one for every
+      # PR. This gate spawns nothing and shares --check's own tier-file
+      # predicate and package walk, so the two cannot disagree about which
+      # files are tier files. It is a SPELLING gate (the config routes through
+      # the one reader), never a claim the partition is right — its header
+      # carries that boundary and the measurement behind the detector.
