Kevin Veen-BirkenbachandClaude Opus 5.5 cb815216d2 fix(kvb-org-organize): no council hook follows a planted symlink or FIFO
The council root is writable by every sandboxed agent of the same uid while its hooks run outside the sandbox, so a planted symlink turned a hook's write into one outside the root, and a planted FIFO or held lock hung every agent's hooks.

- Add nofollow.py: open, read, lock, append, replace and unlink below a root through O_NOFOLLOW directory fds, O_NONBLOCK and regular files only; reads stop at 64 MiB and replace undecodable bytes; locks take an explicit wait.
- watch, queue, radio and council read and write everything below the council root through it; keep_rows copies no symlinked file into ~/.local/state.
- watch: read_json returns dicts only, alert lines that are no alert (deep nesting included) are skipped, cmd_cleanup makes and removes its lock through a root dir fd, and the cache trim walks with fwalk, counts allocated blocks and each inode once.
- radio: the hooks wait at most 2 s for a session lock and skip the delivery past it.
- council: read_claim ignores claims that are no object with session, runtime and beat, so a malformed claim no longer disables the claim gate.

MEDUSA acceptances (kvb-think-criticize 2026-11-06, skeptics A and B): MM-SCAN-058 on nofollow.replace callers, B105 and HPT006 in history.py, RT-SCAN-054 in council.py (name matches).
