Point the Guard guide link to release-aligned documentation.
The linked guide currently identifies the plugin release as 0.1.1, while this README identifies release 0.2.0. Readers can receive outdated validation and support claims. Publish a 0.2.0 guide or replace this link before presenting it as canonical documentation. (herdr.structupath.ai)

Check Bash in npm run doctor.
scripts/check-syntax.mjs runs bash -n, but this command does not verify that Bash exists. On a supported host without Bash, npm run doctor can pass and npm run validate then fails to start the syntax check. Add a Bash availability report.
Proposed fix
report(!lockCheck.error && lockCheck.status === 0, `Lock utility ${lock}`);
+ const bashCheck = spawnSync("/bin/sh", ["-c", "command -v bash >/dev/null"]);
+ report(!bashCheck.error && bashCheck.status === 0, "Bash available");

Guard lacked a single build/validation workflow and setup diagnostics, making it easy to link against an unsupported Herdr binary or miss the Python requirement. Add read-only
npm run doctor, full source syntax and manifest checks vianpm run build, andnpm run validatefor the complete loop.Document upgrading existing rules, reporter socket ownership and opt-in harness behavior, correct the force-with-lease audit claim, and link the canonical suite docs. Runtime and manifest remain 0.2.0; policy and CI behavior are unchanged.
Validation: all 132 tests and build checks passed on Node 20.20.2, 24.18.0, and 26.4.0 on macOS. Doctor rejected Herdr 0.7.1 and accepted 0.8.2 against the declared 0.7.5 minimum. Real hook child-process/local reporter socket tests pass; live Herdr 0.8.2 session behavior is not claimed.
