+name: BCH gate G3b — genuine Upgrade9 activation
+
+# ci-steward 2026-07-07. CI plumbing only — NO consensus knowledge here. The BCH
+# lane owns the harness, the CHECK-companions, and the gate script; this workflow
+# just runs the canonical entrypoint tests/gates/bch_g3b_genuine_activation.sh,
+# which self-configures (conan + cmake -DCOIN_BCH=ON, override via BUILD_DIR) and
+# runs two arms:
+#   * CI arm (network-free, always on): the pool-side activation semantics via the
+#     bch_g2_ratchet_gate_kat / bch_cashtokens_transparency / bch_coinbase_author_kat
+#     targets, with a false-green guard demanding the full expected test count ran.
+#   * Live regtest arm (opt-in): runs only when BCH_UPGRADE9_HEIGHT points at an
+#     isolated regtest BCHN started with -upgrade9activationheight=<N>. Left unset
+#     here — the network-free CI arm carries the gate until the BCH lane wires a
+#     regtest BCHN + secrets into the runner.
+#
+# Mirrors dash-gate-g3a-regtest-block-production.yml. Neutral-skip: on branches
+# predating the G3b entrypoint the job is a green no-op. Register as a required
+# check only after a confirmed non-hollow green rollup (operator-side ruleset).
