Two stories landed at the merge gate today (961, 962) with everything
else green, killed by a single missing `///` doc comment. The merge
gate runs source-map-check; script/check (and therefore the
mcp__huskies__run_check tool that coders use during iteration) did
not. So coders only saw the failure when the merge gate fired —
minutes after they thought they were done.
Chain source-map-check after cargo check so every iteration loop
catches a missing `///` instantly. AGENT.md already calls this out as
a required pre-commit step; making it part of the fast feedback loop
removes the "I forgot" failure mode.

Two stories today (961, 962) passed every other gate and got bounced
at the merge step on a single missing `///` on a `pub mod` line.
Sonnet keeps treating the doc comment as optional when the rule says
"add doc comments to new modules and pub functions/structs/enums."
Promote the rule to its own loud section with no-exceptions wording
and a concrete reminder to run source-map-check before committing.

The function was calling `read_content(story_id)`, which returns the
story's *description* text (e.g. "Bug: Coder exits code 0 with
uncommitted work — force a commit-only respawn..."). It then scanned
that for "Merge conflict" / "CONFLICT (content):", which obviously
never matched, so the auto-spawn-mergemaster-on-content-conflict guard
in `pool/auto_assign/merge.rs` always saw `false` and skipped.
The actual gate output (where the merge runner stores the failure
message including conflict markers) lives at
`format!("{story_id}:gate_output")` — that's the key
`pipeline/advance/mod.rs:207` writes to. Read from there instead.
Witnessed: 954's merge hit a real `CONFLICT (content)` in
tests_regression.rs at 08:57:40, no mergemaster spawned, story stayed
in MergeFailure.

The 5-line spread of `.unwrap_or_else(|| { ... })` in spawn.rs (from
the bd517f28 + 65416476 warm-resume work) doesn't match rustfmt's
preference for the short form. Was blocking every merge gate since
the warm-resume fix landed.
