fix(gates): gate on the DEED grammar, per the template and standards#837 - #70
Conversation
Mirrors `rsr-template-repo/.github/workflows/deed-validate.yml` and standards#837 step 4. No `.a2ml` document is translated and no retained-input gate is touched.

Restore K9-specific wording in this summary.
When K9_COUNT is zero, a repository with a valid .deed file can receive a false “No .a2ml/.deed manifest files found” warning. Use wording such as “No K9 contracts found” and retain the existing k9iser generate . guidance. This wording error affects the summary only; K9 validation and the dogfooding scorecard use separate K9 checks.

Keep the legacy .a2ml state visible in the scorecard label.
The scorecard predicate still marks any .a2ml file as present. A legacy-only repository can therefore receive a check mark while the label names only the canonical repo deed. Retain the legacy qualifier or distinguish canonical and legacy statuses.

Escape the Markdown backticks in this unquoted heredoc.
cat <<EOF performs command substitution on backticks in the heredoc body. Bash parses <reponame>_chora.deed as redirection syntax, not literal Markdown. The redirection reports reponame: No such file or directory, but the outer cat still exits with status 0. The generated scorecard therefore contains DEED repo deed () instead of the intended label.
Proposed fix
- | DEED repo deed (`<reponame>_chora.deed`) | ${DEED_STATUS} | Required for all RSR repos |
+ | DEED repo deed (\`<reponame>_chora.deed\`) | ${DEED_STATUS} | Required for all RSR repos |📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Why
The guard in
dogfood-gate.ymlcounted.a2mlfiles only:so a repo whose manifest is written in the current grammar is reported as having none, and the
summary/compliance row is skipped by the same predicate (
if find . -name '*.a2ml' ... | grep -q .).The validator itself has scanned both grammars for a while -- the caller's predicate is the bug.
Authority
rsr-template-repo/.github/workflows/deed-validate.yml(the mint source) is what this wording iscopied from, byte for byte, including
