/**
* jev-advisory-routing — opt-in Jev advisory routes for memory and
* skill/workflow/verification recommendations.
*
* Two decision types, both advisory, both disabled by default, sharing the
* `./jev/decisions.ts` client:
*
* 1. `memory` — after an explicit durable-memory cue, `none` or one
* read-only local lookup target. Jev never sees memory
* entries, and the host never writes one.
* 2. `recommendations` — one discovered skill/workflow, or a verification
* level, rendered to the parent as context.
*
* Nothing here writes memory, loads a skill, starts a workflow, or weakens a
* project/workflow verification gate. A missing Token-In subscription, a
* timeout, a malformed answer, a low confidence, an unknown candidate, an
* unavailable local memory store, or an oversized payload is an abstention.
