- Added `scripts/**/*.ts` to the linter and formatter inclusion list in `biome.json`.
- Replaced manual array index searches with standard `indexOf` operations.
- Cleaned up unused variables, obsolete helpers, and command-line flags.
- Applied consistent formatting and code style across tooling scripts.
- Renamed the gate and native jobs in CI for consistent release naming.
- Renamed reusable-artifact output keys for native lookup compatibility.
- Rewired release and test jobs to read tags, flags, and hashes from metadata outputs.
- Added a workflow `gate` job that marks `main` pushes with a `v*` tag at `HEAD` as duplicate release runs.
- Conditioned native, lint/test, and install CI jobs on that gate so redundant build and publish work is skipped on duplicate tagged pushes.
- Updated `scripts/ci-release-publish.ts` to publish packed tarballs via `npm publish` after `bun pm pack`, handling already-published versions as a no-op.
