/**
 * skillGraph check-up — build-time validation of a declared graph.
 *
 * Pure + side-effect-free. Catches wiring mistakes at authoring time instead of
 * mid-run: a skill nobody can reach, an edge to a skill that isn't in the graph,
 * two un-prioritized edges leaving one skill, a graph with no start, a self-loop,
 * an entry menu with no way to choose from it, a transition the cursor can never take.
 *
 * Surfaced two ways:
 *   • `graph.checkup()` → `{ ok, problems }` — always available, call it whenever.
 *   • `.build({ check: 'throw' | 'warn' | 'off' })` — run it at build time.
 *
 * **Only `unknown-skill` and `no-entry` are ERRORS.** Everything else is a WARNING,
 * and deliberately so: this file reports what it can PROVE from the declaration, and
 * a graph the model can still navigate is not a broken graph. `unreachable-skill`,
 * `model-edge-only` and `dead-entry-step` all describe skills or transitions that
 * deterministic routing cannot reach — but `read_skill` can, so calling them errors
 * would claim more than the declaration supports.
 *
 * ## What "reachable" means here (8.7.0)
 *
 * The BFS walks **deterministic** edges only — an edge with a `when` or an
 * `onToolReturn`. A bare `.route(a, b)` compiles to no trigger at all (`b` keeps its
 * `llm-activated` default), so counting it as reachability answered a question nobody
 * asked: the graph does not route there, the model does. Bare edges get their own
 * code, `model-edge-only`, which says exactly that and names the one cursor position
 * the gate will grant the jump from.
