feat(manager): align CLI, MCP, and docs

[dh0er]

Summary

• add read-only Manager preflight, exact token-bound recovery, status JSON, and a race-safe Manager-only CLI reset
• make analyze/remove output and MCP safety metadata match the actual Manager state model
• expand the GORE plugin skill to the full 12-action lifecycle and bump plugin metadata to 0.3.0
• update guides and release notes with the completed Nexus, load-order, save, AngelScript, and restoration evidence plus remaining caveats

Validation

• cargo test -p gore-mod (505 passed)
• cargo test -p gore (full suite passed)
• cargo test -p gore-mcp (315 passed)
• python scripts/check_plugin.py
• python scripts/check_docs_links.py
• quick_validate.py plugins/gore/skills/gore-modding
• independent final diff review: clean

Note

Medium Risk
Changes installation recovery, undeploy ownership boundaries, and MCP consent classification for Manager operations—areas that can brick or mislead automation if wrong—but the diff adds extensive integration tests and keeps recovery token-bound and fail-closed.

Overview
Manager CLI and engine gain read-only mgr preflight, token-bound mgr recover (with --yes/--json), richer status --json, and Reset that only undeploys Manager-owned state while refusing Studio deployments (including owner races). analyze and remove messaging now distinguish “no recognized conflicts” from incomplete footprint knowledge and remind users to Apply after removal.

MCP (87 commands) introduces finer Manager safety classes (ManagerWrite, reconcile, loadout edits), reclassifies mgr import as protected library state (not an install mutation), documents ungated but non-read-only list/analyze/status, and wires recover to force non-interactive confirmation over stdio.

AngelScript composition documents and implements correct handling of prepared-mini StaticNames operands during loadout-wide remap (fail-closed on missing rows).

Plugin 0.3.0 and guides/changelogs expand copy to the full import→recover lifecycle, update consent wording, and record the 2026-08-18 Nexus/load-order/script probe campaign with explicit qualification limits.
