/**
 * The generation-facing merged view of the `.vendo` trio: per-tool field
 * semantics with the AI and authored overlays applied, keyed by tool name.
 * Takes the RAW parsed JSON of the `.vendo` files (any may be absent) and
 * returns undefined when nothing applies. Malformed input throws; the caller
 * decides how loud to be.
 *
 * Overlay order is the layer order by AUTHOR: the scanner's inferred hints, the
 * judge's corrections, then the human's — authored last so it wins, matching
 * the registry's capability merge.
