docs: purge chain-of-thought leakage from prose
Delete design-session citations (decision/audit/plan ordinals, stack positions), change narration, review choreography, and reviewer-addressed justification from comments, JSDoc, docs, READMEs, Agent Notes, tests, and generator templates; restate every affected fact as current-state contract prose. Fix generated docs at their sources and regenerate the catalogs and cordis-surface regions; re-paste type-equiv blocks; update every bilingual counterpart and re-record the pairs. Record the citation rule in the committed-artifact-citations Agent Note.

> Scope: the third review round over `packages/settings/` — write-path data integrity in `dsh-settings-local` (operation chain, read-modify-write, cross-process writer lock, diff-shaped YAML edits) and observer lifecycle in `dsh-settings` (watch disposal, async listener containment, the JSON-shape write boundary). This note reverses one deferral recorded in the [user-settings seam note](2026-07-28-user-settings-seam.md): the cross-process lockfile now ships.

## Problem
|
||||
|
||||
Review found the provider's write path could destroy state it never observed, and the Service Definition's observer lifecycle leaked past disposal. Concretely: watcher reloads and document writes ran on two independent promise chains while every write rendered the whole next document from the cached text, so an external edit still inside the debounce window was overwritten — and the follow-up reload no-oped because the post-rename content matched the cache, erasing the edit without a trace. The initial `load()` raced the watcher's own setup, leaving a startup window whose changes never fire an event. Two processes sharing a harness home rendered from independent caches, last writer winning whole namespaces. On the Service Definition side, a `watch()` disposer only removed the observer from its set — an invocation already chained onto the watcher tail still ran after disposal, and nothing drained started invocations at service dispose; the `settings/updated` manual fan-out caught only synchronous throws, so an async listener's rejection escaped as an unhandled rejection; and `structuredClone` admitted Dates, Maps, BigInts, and cycles that YAML/JSON storage silently distorts on the reload round-trip (a Date lands as a timestamp string, a BigInt as a plain number). YAML writes replaced the whole namespace node, deleting every comment inside the section a comment-preserving provider had promised to keep.

## Consequences
|
||||
|
||||
`update()` has documented failure modes for the lock deadline and an invalid on-disk document, and rejection messages carry `$`-rooted paths. A crashed holder can leave a lock that requires verified operator removal; automatic age-based takeover would permit overlapping writers. Remaining, documented in the provider README: same-namespace concurrent edits stay last-write-wins (no per-value merge or revision check), a watcher event the OS never delivers leaves the cache stale until the next signal or write, and comments inside replaced arrays or attached inline to changed scalar values go with the value they described. The [user-settings seam note](2026-07-28-user-settings-seam.md)'s deferred-lockfile alternative is superseded by this note. The same defect classes exist in `dsh-credentials-local` (two chains over one `.env`, cached whole-file write-back, post-persist emit) and in the `llm/adapters-updated` fan-out on the stacked branches; those fixes belong to the PRs that introduce the packages and follow this template on merge-up.
