chameleon 4.4.51

Fixed

• Bash exit status recorded from the event, not an absent payload key. The Bash
  PostToolUse tool_response carries no exit status at all -- a captured live payload is
  {stdout, stderr, interrupted, isImage, noOutputExpected} -- so reading a status key under
  any spelling always missed and every command logged the -1 absent-value sentinel. With
  session_test_run_seen requiring a zero exit, the turn-end "no passing test run this turn"
  advisory was unsatisfiable no matter how much the user tested (measured on the plugin's own
  repo: 37,291 of 37,293 rows recorded -1). PostToolUse fires only after a tool call
  succeeds -- a failed call raises PostToolUseFailure, which the hook is not registered for --
  so an uninterrupted Bash response object now records exit 0. An explicit exit_code /
  returnCode still wins when a host sends one, and an absent or non-dict response keeps the
  sentinel. The contract test that guarded this asserted the broken behaviour, written from the
  same misreading of the docs, and now uses the captured payload shape as its fixture.

Added

• scripts/qa-mcp-call.py (dev tooling): calls an MCP tool over the real stdio transport,
  launching the server exactly the way .mcp.json does, so a verification run exercises the
  wire rather than an in-process import.
• scripts/qa-matrix.py --ledger PATH: point the cell ledger commands at a different cell file
  so an independent re-verification keeps its verdicts separate from the run it audits.
