`sourceMemoryPath` being absent used to mean "the agent did not produce repo-memory output for this run", so the step could exit cleanly. After this change, every schema-managed memory now fails at line 530 unless an artifact directory exists, even when the run intentionally made no memory changes or is creating the memory for the first time. That is a behavior regression from no-op to hard failure, and it is independent of whether the final merged tree would satisfy the schema.

Validation should happen only when there is an actual candidate tree to validate (or after you have reconstructed one from existing state plus staged changes), not as a blanket requirement on artifact presence.

<details><summary>💡 Why this blocks merge</summary>

The new `schemaContainsNumericEnum(...)` gate is much broader than the actual precision hazard. For example, a schema like `{properties:{kind:{enum:[1,2]}, counter:{type:"integer"}}}` should accept `{"kind":1,"counter":9007199254740993}` unless `counter` is itself enum-checked, but the new pre-parse scan rejects the record before schema validation even runs. The same over-rejection happens for JSONL records via `validateJSONLFile`.

Please move the exact-representability check to the enum comparison sites (or walk only the schema-constrained numeric-enum locations) so free-form numeric fields keep their previous behavior.

Blocking regressions in the new declarative memory-schema flow.

<details><summary>Blocking themes</summary>

- Schema-backed repo-memory can no longer be bootstrapped cleanly: the safe-output preflight now rejects a missing memory directory before staging the requested files, and the push path turns a missing artifact directory into a hard validation failure.
- The numeric-enum safety guard is too broad: it rejects any large JSON number anywhere in the document once a single numeric enum exists in the schema, which changes acceptance for unrelated fields.

These are correctness regressions rather than polish issues, so I would not merge until the validation points are narrowed to actual candidate trees and actual enum comparisons.

This lookup only inspects methods declared directly on the receiver type, so the new linter silently misses `defer x.Close()` when `Close` is promoted through embedding or comes from the resolved method set.

<details><summary>💡 The analyzer is throwing away the compiler's method resolution</summary>

Here `pass.TypesInfo.TypeOf(selector.X)` gives you the receiver type, but `lookupClose` then scans only direct methods on `*types.Named`/`*types.Interface`. That skips valid calls such as:

```go
type wrapped struct{ *os.File }

func use(w wrapped) {
    defer w.Close()
}
```

The selector resolves and compiles because `Close` is promoted from the embedded field, but `named.Method(i)` on `wrapped` never sees that promoted method, so this analyzer produces a false negative. Reusing the resolved selector info fixes the hole and keeps the linter aligned with the compiler's actual method set:

```go
selInfo := pass.TypesInfo.Selections[selector]
if selInfo == nil {
    return
}
sig, ok := selInfo.Obj().Type().(*types.Signature)
if !ok {
    return
}
```

Please add a fixture that covers an embedded/promoted `Close` method so this regression stays closed.

### Review summary

I found one correctness hole in the analyzer implementation.

<details><summary>Details</summary>

`lookupClose` only inspects methods declared directly on the receiver type, so the new linter misses `defer x.Close()` when `Close` is promoted through embedding or otherwise comes from the resolved method set. A wrapper like `type wrapped struct { *os.File }` compiles with `defer w.Close()`, but `named.Method(i)` on `wrapped` never sees the promoted method, so this analyzer returns a false negative.

Please switch to the selector resolution the type checker already computed (`pass.TypesInfo.Selections[selector]` or `types.LookupFieldOrMethod`) and add a fixture covering an embedded/promoted `Close` method.

This audit path now trusts any `model_endpoint.mismatch` record that claims `component=model_endpoint`, so a hand-written or truncated `aw_session.jsonl` can inject false mismatch diagnostics into `gh aw audit` output.

<details><summary>💡 Why this matters</summary>

The JS failure-report path validates the collector-produced `session.format` header before it trusts mismatch evidence, but this Go reader accepts the new event type as soon as the per-record provenance matches. That means a stale or forged session file in the run directory can surface a bogus model/endpoint failure in audit output even when the collector never published a valid unified session.

A safer pattern is to prove the file is a collector-authored unified session once up front, then ignore mismatch events until that header has been seen.

```go
seenCollectorHeader := false
...
case event.Type == "session.format":
    seenCollectorHeader = event.Provenance.Component == "collector"
case event.Type == "model_endpoint.mismatch":
    if !seenCollectorHeader {
        return nil
    }
```

That keeps the trust boundary consistent with the new `handle_agent_failure` logic and avoids poisoning audit evidence with ad hoc JSONL.

Non-blocking overall, but I found one correctness gap in the new mismatch-audit path.

`pkg/cli/model_routing_session.go` accepts `model_endpoint.mismatch` records without first proving the source file is a collector-produced unified session. The failure-report path does that validation already, so the audit side is now the weak link: stale or hand-written JSONL in the run directory can surface bogus mismatch diagnostics in `gh aw audit` output.
