#
# Every VARIABLE the LIFTED PAYLOAD reads must be one the DRIVER defines.
#
# VARIABLES ONLY — and the emphasis is a round-8 correction (Claude, N1). A
# lifted payload also inherits FUNCTIONS, shell options, traps and a working
# directory from the script it was cut out of. This tool models none of those.
# A lifted phase calling a function defined in a neighbouring phase fails with
# `command not found`, loud under `set -e`, which is why it is not urgent; but
# the banner used to read as a completeness claim about lifting and it is a
# completeness claim about variables.
#
# Prints the offending names and exits 1 if any are missing.
#
# ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
# WHY THIS EXISTS — 2026-08-02
#
# Five of this repository's self-tests work by lifting one phase out of
# check.sh and running it standalone against a deliberately corrupted tree.
# That is the right design: the test then attacks the SHIPPING gate rather
# than a re-implementation of it. But a lifted phase is a fragment, and it
# reads variables its neighbours defined. Each self-test therefore carries a
# hand-written preamble supplying them.
#
# A hand-written preamble is a hand-kept list, and hand-kept lists drift. Twice
# in two days a phase grew a dependency and no preamble was told:
#
#   · Phase 2c grew an accounting block reading $KERNLOG, a file Phase 2b
#     creates. selftest-shapes.sh died on its first expansion under `set -u`.
#     It could not pass on any fork from the moment that block was added.
#
#   · Phase 2b changed from globbing Proofs/*.lean to reading the $PROOFS
#     membership manifest — the spelling-versus-ownership fix ScalarPackSpec
#     forced. selftest-axgate.sh's preamble was never told. Bash does NOT
#     error on an unset array expansion under `set -u`; it expands to nothing,
#     so `printf '"%s.olean", ' "${PROOFS[@]}"` silently produced
#         expected := [".olean"]
#     — one entry, empty name — and the gate's own fail-closed absence check
#     rejected it. The baseline went red and both attack cases were then
#     rejected for the WRONG REASON.
#
# Both failed loudly rather than passing vacuously, which is the only reason
# they were not false assurance. That is luck, not design: a missing variable
# that happens to make an ATTACK case die still looks like the attack being
# caught, and only the substring assertions in each `expect` helper stand
# between that and a green test measuring nothing.
#
# The fix for the CLASS is to stop maintaining the list by hand. This tool
# derives the requirement from the two artifacts themselves, so a phase that
# grows a new dependency fails AT LIFT TIME, naming it, instead of dying
# mid-run or — worse — passing for the wrong reason.
#
# WHAT IT IS NOT. This is a shell-text approximation, not a bash parser. It
# still cannot see a name built at runtime or passed through `eval`, and it
# models variables only — not functions, shell options, traps or the working
# directory a lifted phase also inherits. It is a tripwire on failure modes
# that actually occurred, not a proof of closure.
#
# Where it CANNOT bound the reads it refuses rather than staying silent:
# indirect expansion (`${!name}`) is detected and fails the lift. That is the
# round-8 correction — a guard whose contract is "does not miss a dependency"
# must say so when it cannot honour it, instead of shrugging.
