-/**
- * @module scripts/wall-entry
- * @description The releases-wall entry, made mechanical. The fleet's HQ page
- * reads one public JSON per product (releases/<product>.json — shape
- * {product, entries:[{version, date, headline, items, url, thumb}], history}).
- * Those entries were hand-written after every release; this script is the
- * one door that composes one, so it never has to be typed by hand again.
- *
- * Two modes:
- *
- *   1. Generate + write in place (default):
- *        node wall-entry.mjs --product <p> --version <v> --date <YYYY-MM-DD> \
- *          --from-changelog <CHANGELOG.md> [--file releases/<p>.json]
- *      Derives an entry from the CHANGELOG.md entry for <v> (headline = the
- *      entry's first bullet, items = every bullet, trimmed of its trailing
- *      commit hash), prepends it to --file (default releases/<product>.json,
- *      newest first), refusing by name if <v> is already present, and
- *      validates the whole file's shape + ordering before and after writing.
- *      Both engines run this identically, each against its own repo's
- *      releases/<product>.json — the wall file always lives beside the
- *      CHANGELOG it is derived from, never in another repo.
- *
- *   2. Validate only (--check):
- *        node wall-entry.mjs --check --file <releases/p.json>
- *      Validates the file's exact key set (top-level and per-entry), field
- *      types, and strict-descending semver ordering with no duplicates.
- *      Read-only; never writes. Exit 0 = clean, exit 1 = named violations
- *      printed to stderr.
- *
- * No dependencies — CHANGELOG parsing, semver comparison, and JSON shape
- * checking are all hand-rolled below.
