Gate blocked a deploy

Symptom. The Conformity workflow is red; the "Deploy to Pages" job shows as skipped; the live site still shows the previous build.

Steps

1. Open the failed run, or run the dry run locally: the last line names each check with its result.
2. Read the failing check's evidence lines at /conformity/ or in conformity/latest.json. Each line names the file and the reason.
3. Fix by type:
   • site.consistency: add the missing sitemap entry or canonical link, or make the link root-absolute.
   • placeholders: replace the placeholder with the real text or remove it.
   • rules.blocking: rewrite the sentence. If the hit is a false positive, record it with the gate owner as well.
   • predictions.hashes: a hashed prediction changed. Restore the file; predictions are never edited after hashing.
4. Run the dry run until it prints overall=pass, then git pull --rebase and push.
