- Distinguish client_namespace vs offline_spawn probe sources; only IDE
client probes prove namespace health and feed mutation gates.
- Record assessments in session; gate gitea_submit_pr_review and
gitea_merge_pr when client-namespace health is unhealthy/non-proven.
- Mark test_mcp_conn.py offline-only; align recovery docs to client
reconnect (no PID-kill/config-touch as canonical recovery).
- Rebase onto current master so #590 ledger isolation keeps
TestMergePR.test_unknown_profile_blocks green.
Adds docs/mcp-namespace-eof-recovery.md documenting the correct recovery
path when a Gitea MCP namespace (gitea-author/reviewer/merger/tools)
returns `client is closing: EOF`.
Satisfies acceptance criterion 7 of #543: symptom, root cause (closed
client transport vs a live-but-stale process), the sanctioned
reconnect/relaunch sequence, diagnostics to capture, and how
test_mcp_conn.py reproduces the registered-vs-callable gap. Distinguishes
this transport-close failure from the ps-based stale-runtime family in
#531/#544 and reinforces the no-direct-import guard (#558).
Docs-only; no code or test behavior changed.

The namespace health check (05fdcee) classified a false-ready namespace but
only returned an advisory blocks_merge_workflow flag; nothing in the merge
gate consumed it. Wire it in so a broken live namespace hard-blocks merge.
- review_merge_state_machine.assess_workflow_blockers: add live_namespace_broken
blocker (registered-in-FastMCP but not callable-through-namespace).
- assess_state_advancement: forward **blocker_kwargs so can_approve/can_merge/
workflow_status honor the full blocker set (also fixes latent drop of
mcp_reconnect_failed/stale_capability_state through those paths).
- gitea_assess_review_merge_state_machine tool: accept live_namespace_broken and
thread it through all state-machine calls.
- Tests: prove can_merge/workflow_status/tool block on live_namespace_broken even
with every review state + pre-merge gate satisfied; bridge classify verdict.
- Docs: enforcement section wiring blocks_merge_workflow -> live_namespace_broken.
