[do-not-mirror][do-not-merge] chore(fork): add merge gate before stacking on integration/3.0

.github/pull_request_template.md

@@ -0,0 +1,84 @@
+<!-- Fork PR into integration/3.0. Delete nothing; fill everything in. -->
+
+## What
+
+<!-- One or two sentences. If you need "and" to describe unrelated changes, split the PR. -->
+
+## Why
+
+<!-- Problem, or the capability we need. Link the issue if there is one. -->
+
+## How tested
+
+<!-- Commands you actually ran in this environment, and their outcome. -->
+
+- [ ] `pre-commit run --all-files`
+- [ ] `make rebuild` (required if `.c`/`.h` changed — zero new warnings)
+- [ ] `make test-unit` / `make test-eval`
+- [ ] `make test-c` (C sim logic)
+- [ ] `make test-notebooks` (notebooks touched)
+- [ ] `make test-docker-smoke` (dynamics, rewards, observations, or training loop touched)
+- [ ] `make -C tests/drive perf` (hot paths touched)
+- [ ] `make test` before marking ready (unit + eval + c + notebooks — does **not** include
+      docker-smoke or perf; those are the two boxes above)
+
+New behaviour is covered by a new test / the fix has a test that fails without it:
+
+<!-- name the test(s) -->
+
+## Stack hygiene
+
+<!-- chore(fork) branches: the two fork-only checks below are expected to trip by design —
+     write "exempt: chore(fork)" for those. The one-commit check still applies in full. -->
+
+- [ ] exactly one commit (`git rev-list --count origin/integration/3.0..HEAD` → `1`)
+- [ ] Conventional Commits subject, rebased on current `integration/3.0`
+- [ ] no fork-only **file** in the diff (`git diff --name-only origin/integration/3.0...HEAD`)
+- [ ] no fork-only **hunk** in a shared file — `AGENTS.md`, `CLAUDE.md`, and the `pull_request`
+      branch filters of `ci.yml` / `install.yml` are untouched in those specific places
+
+## Merge gate
+
+<!-- All three must be green before this is stacked. See copilot-instructions.md §4.8. -->
+
+- [ ] **Gate 1 — CI green** on the final commit (no "green except a flake")
+- [ ] **Gate 2 — adversarial review** posted by someone other than the author; findings fixed or
+      explicitly accepted in the thread
+- [ ] **Gate 3 — upstream-readiness proven**: `mirror/<slug>` cherry-picked onto pure
+      `upstream/3.0`, applied without conflict, diff is upstream-clean
+      <!-- exempt for chore(fork): fork-only changes — tick the "Never upstream" box below -->
+
+Gate 3 result:
+
+<!-- paste `git diff --name-only upstream/3.0...HEAD`, or write "exempt: chore(fork)" -->
+
+## Upstream disposition
+
+- [ ] Mirror PR to `Emerge-Lab/PufferDrive` requested now — needs a human to verify the final
+      title, body and diff first, and the body must carry the authorship disclosure from
+      copilot-instructions.md §6.1
+- [ ] Contributable, but we hold it for now, because: <!-- reason -->
+- [ ] **Never upstream** — fork-only `chore(fork):` change, Gate 3 exempt
+
+<!--
+Fork-only change? Two independent axes, BOTH must be marked:
+
+  do-not-mirror (never reaches upstream) — all four:
+    1. PR is a DRAFT
+    2. title contains [do-not-mirror]
+    3. the `do-not-mirror` label is applied
+    4. the "Never upstream" box above is ticked
+
+  do-not-merge (the merge button is never pressed) — both:
+    5. title contains [do-not-merge]
+    6. the `do-not-merge` label is applied
+
+Merging it would put a SECOND chore(fork) commit on the stack. Section 7 asserts there is exactly
+one, so every future sync would abort. It is folded into the base chore(fork) commit by fixup.
+See .github/copilot-instructions.md section 3.3.

+## Risk / notes

+<!-- Behaviour changes, config or observation-layout changes, perf impact, follow-ups. -->
