release(v4.8.8): Issue #17 follow-up - archive the review reports and bump the lockstep version

Merge-workspace review loop (--all-reviewer): round 1 (@d198dd5) claude agy PASS, grok codex NOT PASS (the same inherited WORKSPACE_ROOT in eleven more modules; test_orc_onboard's import-time env); fixed in 8b47cc7. Round 2 claude grok NOT PASS (test_o2_race_free_lock, test_o1_rebuttal missed), agy codex PASS; fixed in ac48cb7. Round 3 (@ac48cb7) 4/4 PASS. Full suite at ac48cb7 on macOS / Python 3.9 / herdr 0.9.3 with WORKSPACE_ROOT set to an empty sentinel: 1751 passed / 0 failed / 38 skipped; the sentinel stayed empty and the main checkout's shim was not touched.

+
+## 1. Executive Summary
+
+During the PR #51 review, an issue was uncovered where test execution in an agent pane (where `WORKSPACE_ROOT` is preset in the environment) leaked writes into other workspaces: `lib.sh:144` rewrites `$WORKSPACE_ROOT/.mam/shim/herdr` every time `lib.sh` is sourced. In `tests/test_issue17_item4_decisions.py:224`, `_env` scrubbed `HERDR_*`, `MAM_*`, and `SKS_*` but preserved `WORKSPACE_ROOT`.
+
+The changes under review resolve this defect and ensure comprehensive isolation:
+1. `tests/test_issue17_item4_decisions.py:_env` scrubs `WORKSPACE_ROOT` and pins it to `str(tmp_path)`.
+2. A fixture `own_workspace_root` was introduced in `tests/conftest.py` and adopted across all 10 candidate test modules whose subprocess shells source `lib.sh` without `mam_sandbox`.
+3. Dedicated regression tests (`test_c_helpers_write_nothing_to_an_inherited_workspace`, `test_w1_no_test_writes_into_the_checkout_it_runs_in`, `test_w2_onboard_does_not_carry_its_import_time_root`) confirm that sentinel workspaces receive zero writes, and the checkout running the suite remains clean.
+4. Comprehensive test execution verified both baseline and sentinel runs: **643 passed, 0 failed**.
+5. Changes are strictly confined to test fixtures and tests; product code (`.agents/skills`) remains untouched.
+
+All review criteria are satisfied. The verdict is **PASS**.

+
+## 2. Evaluation of Task Requirements
+
+| Requirement | Description | Status | Details |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| **1. `test_issue17_item4_decisions.py` `_env` Isolation** | `_env` must not inherit `WORKSPACE_ROOT`. Choose between unsetting or setting to test-specific temporary path and document rationale. | **PASS** | `_env` scrubs `WORKSPACE_ROOT` and explicitly sets `WORKSPACE_ROOT=str(tmp_path)`. If left unset, `lib.sh:26` falls back to deriving the repository root, which would cause shim writes to leak into the real checkout. Setting it to `tmp_path` confines all shim generation to the temporary test directory. |
+| **2. Comprehensive Audit of Other Tests & Conftest Fixture** | Investigate all tests copying `os.environ` and invoking `lib.sh` / wrappers. Add conftest fixture if appropriate, avoiding breaking tests that intentionally configure `WORKSPACE_ROOT`. | **PASS** | Added `own_workspace_root` in `tests/conftest.py`. Not made `autouse` because in-process modules (`runner.py`, `mqtt_common`) inspect `WORKSPACE_ROOT`, and `mam_sandbox` already handles its own roots. Applied `pytestmark = pytest.mark.usefixtures("own_workspace_root")` to 10 identified test modules, plus explicit bindings in `test_issue21_worktree_prereqs.py`, `test_workspace_scope.py`, and `test_orc_onboard.py`. |
+| **3. Regression Tests** | Add tests asserting that running target helpers with `WORKSPACE_ROOT` pointing to a sentinel directory leaves the sentinel empty, and verify failure prior to fix. | **PASS** | Added `test_c_helpers_write_nothing_to_an_inherited_workspace` in `test_issue17_item4_decisions.py` and regression suite `test_issue17_workspace_root_isolation.py` (`test_w1`, `test_w2`). Prior to commit `d198dd5`, `_env` inherited `WORKSPACE_ROOT` and wrote `.mam/shim/herdr` into the sentinel, triggering failure. |
+| **4. Comprehensive Suite & Sentinel Verification** | Run modified test files with (a) unset `WORKSPACE_ROOT`, (b) `WORKSPACE_ROOT=<sentinel>` verifying sentinel remains empty, plus `test_issue33_budget.py`, `test_issue5_phase1_delegation.py`, and `test_tier1_unit.py`. | **PASS** | Both test runs completed successfully with exit code 0. Sentinel directories remained 100% empty (`rglob("*") == []`). All required suites passed without errors. |

+| [`tests/test_issue6_turn_handshake.py`](file:///tests/test_issue6_turn_handshake.py#L28) | `_run_lib_sh`, `_run_wrapper` | No change needed | Helpers already bind `WORKSPACE_ROOT=str(cwd)` when `cwd` is supplied (all tests pass `cwd=tmp_path`). |
+| [`tests/test_tier1_unit.py` ~ `test_tier4_e2e.py`, `test_uuid_target.py`, etc.] | Component & integration suites | No change needed | Already use `mam_sandbox` fixture which configures an isolated `WORKSPACE_ROOT`. |

+## 5. Non-Functional & Safety Checks
+
+1. **Surgical Scope**:
+   - `git diff --stat 6b00b6e..8b47cc7` shows changes confined strictly to `tests/`.
+   - Product code (`.agents/skills/`) is 100% untouched.
+2. **Portability**:
+   - Compatible with macOS, Python 3.9+, and bash 3.2.
+   - Subshell commands use standard syntax compatible with BSD utilities.
+3. **Safety & Hygiene**:
+   - No interaction with live herdr sessions, production `.mam.env`, or host daemon.
+   - Commits cleanly follow the repository convention: `test(issue-17): ...`.
+   - Working tree in verification path is completely clean.
+
+---
+
+## 6. Conclusion & Final Verdict
+
+The implementation resolves the `WORKSPACE_ROOT` inheritance issue thoroughly and cleanly across all relevant test modules without breaking existing fixtures or mutating product code. Regression tests verify both positive isolation and pre-fix failure modes.
+
+[VERDICT: PASS]
