validateIndexConsistency() was blind to native providers — it only ran the JS
metadata index's own check, so a native provider whose manifest/segments/counts
had diverged still read as "healthy". Per ADR-004 §6 it now feature-detects and
aggregates each provider's optional validateInvariants() (a never-throwing,
<50ms self-report of its own cross-layer invariants), names any failing
invariant with its numbers in the recommendation, and exposes the per-provider
reports. A provider that violates the never-throw contract is surfaced as
unhealthy, never swallowed.
repairIndex() now reconciles NATIVE derived state from canonical too: it consults
each provider's invariants and calls rebuild() on any whose failing invariant
asks for heal:'rebuild' — the native counterpart of detectAndRepairCorruption().
New provider surface: optional validateInvariants(); new exported types
ProviderInvariantReport / InvariantResult / InvariantHeal. Additive, no break.
Cor implements the hook in 3.0.15 (M2); brainy builds against the shape now
(feature-detected, inert until a provider exposes it). 5 tests.
