Assertion

Direct push for small fixes, PR for checkpoints. The boundary is set per-project at bootstrap Q7.

Why

PR ceremony for two-line CSS is waste; PR ceremony for a multi-file feature is a checkpoint you'll thank yourself for.

Mechanism

Direct push: single-file fix, doc tweak, CSS, test stabilisation, non-breaking bump. PR: multi-file feature, schema, contract change, invariant change, auth, anything on a critical path.
