fix(gates): gate on the DEED grammar, per the template and standards#837 - #209
Conversation
Mirrors `rsr-template-repo/.github/workflows/deed-validate.yml` and standards#837 step 4. No `.a2ml` document is translated and no retained-input gate is touched.

K9 contracts were found, rather than reporting missing .a2ml/.deed manifests.

Make the DEED compliance predicate root-aware.
The current predicate counts .a2ml and .deed files anywhere below the repository. A nested or state file can therefore enable validation and increment the DEED score without the required root manifest. Keep the broad validator file count separate from the root-level compliance check.

Restore the K9-specific summary.
When K9_COUNT is zero, this branch reports a missing .a2ml/.deed manifest. That is a DEED condition, not a K9 condition. A repository with valid DEED manifests and no K9 contracts receives an incorrect K9 summary. Report missing K9 contracts here, then retain the k9iser generate . instruction.

Why
The guard in
dogfood-gate.ymlcounted.a2mlfiles only:so a repo whose manifest is written in the current grammar is reported as having none, and the
summary/compliance row is skipped by the same predicate (
if find . -name '*.a2ml' ... | grep -q .).The validator itself has scanned both grammars for a while -- the caller's predicate is the bug.
Authority
rsr-template-repo/.github/workflows/deed-validate.yml(the mint source) is what this wording iscopied from, byte for byte, including
