Shay f3702ad437 feat(adr-0244): Phase 3 — γ_id calibration (certified; live flag flip BLOCKED)
D4 Phase 3 (§2.4). Calibrates the wave-gate leakage bound γ_id via the
bracketed-local Fibonacci section search and emits a content-addressed tuning
certificate (evals/adr_0244_gamma_calibration/). Two results, kept separate:

1. The search certifies γ* = 0.2126624458513829 (cert 0079b5f2…) separating
   the geometric attack signal — in-subspace rotors admitted, axis→e4/e5
   tilt/boost attacks flagged (inversions excluded: ~0-leakage, handled by the
   orientation floor). Pinned as identity._WAVE_LEAKAGE_BOUND; the wave path is
   decoupled from alignment_threshold (legacy path + hedge bands keep it).

2. The same bound does NOT separate real live traffic. Measured on the engine,
   benign final_state.F versors do not preserve span(e1,e2,e3): leakage
   0.14–0.81 (mean 0.55), self-align to −0.52, 12/13 benign false-refused at
   γ*, best balanced error 0.346. The calibration certifies
   flag_flip_authorized=False → identity_wave_gate stays OFF.

Root cause: the shipped value axes (truthfulness=e1, coherence=e2,
reverence=e3) are nominal basis vectors, not dynamically-preserved eigenmodes;
the field evolution gives the identity subspace no dynamical anchoring. The fix
is the ADR-0246 induced-identity-action programme (preflight brief merged). The
wave gate is validated, correctly-off scaffolding — not a live gate. A slow
drift-guard test canaries any future engine change that starts preserving
identity.

Off-serving (evals/ + tests); flag-off byte-identity preserved. ADR §4a +
plan doc + memory updated with the finding.

[Verification]: smoke 176 passed; fast lane 11897 passed / 109 skipped (-n
auto, not quarantine/slow); 59 targeted gate/calibration tests passed.
