`GAUNTLET:` sentinel is always emitted: even a crashed gate prints

+## Fault-only re-runs
+
+`retry_gate.py` sits between the lane maps and the verdict gate and re-runs
+only lanes that **faulted** — a missing report (stood in for by a synthetic
+`PIPELINE-FAULT: lane produced no report` marker so it never renders as
+SKIPPED), a non-string report, the `lane_fault` marker, a sentinel-less
+report, or a nested graph's own degraded-run wording. A real verdict
+(DIVERGES, FAIL, INCONCLUSIVE, NEEDS-HUMAN, …) is never re-run: the review's
+judgment stands. Each lane gets up to 3 attempts, all inside a wall-clock
+budget (`MAX_RETRY_ELAPSED_SECS`) sized to fit the graph timeout.
+
+- **Stash + restore**: every lane report that ran this pass is stashed in
+ `kept_results`; a re-run pass overwrites the untouched lanes' collected
+ results with `[]`, so their stashed reports are restored before the gate.
+ The verdict gate always sees each lane's *last* report.
+- **Retry never narrows selection**: lane selection is not re-run. A re-run
+ pass rebuilds items only for the retried lanes, and the stashed results
+ stand in for the rest.
+- **Exhaustion is recorded, not hidden**: a lane still faulted after its
+ attempts or the budget lands in `review_incomplete`, and its fault flows to
+ the verdict gate as-is.
+- **Crash guards append**: the `build_items.py` and `retry_gate.py` crash
+ guards append to an existing `signals_error` rather than overwrite it, and
+ `build_items.py` preserves the prior `lanes_summary`.
+
+Whenever at least one lane (or the pipeline) could not complete, the first
+line reads `GAUNTLET: BLOCKED` followed immediately by
+`GAUNTLET_REVIEW_INCOMPLETE: [, ]`. The names are the exhausted
+lanes from `review_incomplete`, plus the `pipeline` pseudo-lane whenever a
+pipeline-level `PIPELINE-FAULT:` fired — parse death, or a crash in the
+builder, the retry gate, the default-lanes fallback, or the verdict gate
+itself (the default-lanes fallback's crash still runs the widened lanes, so
+`pipeline` appears alongside real lane rows). The report gains a
+`## Review incomplete` section naming each exhausted lane with its
+attempt count; `PIPELINE-FAULT` lane rows carry ` ×N` when the lane was
+re-run (N > 1). The *named* entries are faults to re-run, never code
+findings; the line can accompany real findings from the other lanes, which
+still appear under `## Blockers` and must be fixed as usual.

## Notes
- The caller decides *whether* review is warranted at all (the gauntlet is for
non-trivial work — that's why code-review is unconditionally on); the
gauntlet decides *which* of the other lanes apply and what the verdicts mean.
-- Lane sub-agents get generous finite timeouts (2h each; 3h whole-gauntlet)
- and one retry (`max_attempts: 2`). A lane that still dies or times out falls
- back to the `lane_fault` marker — BLOCKED naming the lane, never a silent
- pass.
+- Lane sub-agents get generous finite per-attempt timeouts (see the
+ `timeout:` on each `run_*` node) and one retry (`max_attempts: 2`) inside
+ the lane, then up to 3 attempts of the whole lane from `retry_gate.py` while
+ the wall-clock budget (`MAX_RETRY_ELAPSED_SECS`) allows; `settings.timeout`

+ dies or times out falls back to the `lane_fault` marker — BLOCKED naming the
