Provenance receipt

!node "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/../../pr-provenance-stamp.js" --render 2>/dev/null || node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/pr-provenance-stamp.js" --render

The block above is the provenance receipt exactly as it would be stamped into a PR body when you run gh pr create, built from the most recent session ledger the pr-provenance-stamp hook has been recording (tool calls, test/typecheck commands with real exit codes, and the agent-vs-human authored-line split). Prompt and spend figures come from the transcript at PR-create time, so they may be absent in this preview.

Briefly summarize the receipt for the user: how many tests ran and whether they are green, and the agent-authored line count or percentage. Keep it to a sentence or two and do not re-run any commands.
