Worktree Guard & DNS Rebinding Fix

The monitor’s reply endpoint now validates Origin against a trusted allowlist of loopback addresses, local hostnames, and non-loopback IPs — closing a DNS rebinding hole where an attacker-controlled page could post Linear comments as the operator. Separately, every shell-side git worktree remove --force call now runs a safety check that refuses removal if your current directory is inside the target or any process holds an open handle under it, protecting against accidental self-deletion that the Node reaper never covered.

Deployment Mode Resolver & Credential Hardening

This release introduces a unified deployment-mode resolver (single-host, cluster, or cloud) that reads identically in bash and JS, with advisory doctor checks and gated tunnel/webhook behavior wired across execution-core, orch-monitor, and catalyst-join.sh. It also fixes a live credential outage: daemon processes now re-arm their GitHub token from disk on every cluster-sync tick rather than inheriting a frozen env at boot, and linear-reconcile-cli correctly falls back to LINEAR_API_KEY when LINEAR_API_TOKEN is absent. Several reliability fixes round out the release: stale needs-human/blocked labels can no longer be re-applied to tickets already terminal in Linear, escalated recovery intents no longer latch permanently past their 7-day TTL, and the board no longer shows zero tickets for teams registered only in cluster.json.
