CI (`.github/workflows/ci.yml`) runs build, vet, `go test ./...`, race tests
on the internal packages, and the full eval suite against a real Linux binary.

Never run git-mutating operations (`git worktree add`, merges, rebases)
against this repository while a `go test` or other tooling run is in flight
against it — concurrent heavy git activity has corrupted the working repo's
state (issue #17). One at a time; this also means no parallel subagents that

change is done only when `make build`, `gofmt -l .` (empty), `go vet ./...`, and
`go test ./...` are all clean and the eval suite is green with `FERRY_BIN` set.

Concurrent heavy git activity has corrupted the working repository's state —
`core.bare` flipped and an isolated test fixture's git identity leaked into the
local config (issue #17). Let one finish before starting the other.
