[Preset]: Update Intake Authoring Governance to v0.3.4

The issue is to update an existing preset in the spec-kit catalog from version 0.3.1 to 0.3.4. Start by examining the preset catalog structure in the repository, likely under a directory like 'presets' or 'catalog'. Look for the existing entry for 'intake-authoring-governance'. The update involves validating the new version's features, such as archive placement and lifecycle checks, and ensuring the preset.yml manifest and templates are correctly integrated. Test by installing the preset via specify preset add and verifying template resolution. The work requires understanding the spec-kit preset system and possibly the preset's own repository structure.

Key Features

• Update the existing intake-authoring-governance entry from 0.3.1 to 0.3.4; preserve its ID.
• Validate completed-series archive placement, separate physical active-file counts from series counts, and support absent empty active directories in SeriesManifest mode without weakening DirectoryStrict.
• Validate unique hash-bound archive successors for historical receipt targets and repository-file sources without rewriting historical evidence.
• Reject physical collection aliases, unknown lifecycle states and repository path escapes before reading receipt targets or sources.
• Restore valid shipped receipt JSON templates and consistent generator version metadata. Native CI now parses every shipped JSON template.
• Preserve traceable intake CRUD, bounded public HTTPS sources, explicit write authority, language-aware collections and provider-neutral model routing.
• Creating an intake starts no review, implementation, campaign, commit, push or merge. Recommended composition priority remains 64.

Testing Checklist

• Preset installs successfully via specify preset add
• Template resolution works correctly after installation
• Documentation is complete and accurate
• Tested on at least one real project

Submission Requirements

• Valid preset.yml manifest included
• Linked README (Documentation URL) explains how to use this preset and includes a valid specify preset add ... command (preferably specify preset add --from <download-url> using the exact download URL)
• LICENSE file included
• GitHub release created with version tag
• Preset ID follows naming conventions (lowercase-with-hyphens)

Update and validation evidence

This updates the existing catalog entry, previously submitted through #4118, rather than adding a second preset ID.

• Stable v0.3.4 release.
• Merged source PR #8: native lifecycle checks succeeded on macOS, Linux and Windows.
• Fresh macOS verification on 2026-09-23: installation directly from the submitted tag URL with priority 64; preset info and receipt-template resolution succeeded; all five agent command surfaces were generated. Installed package contents match the independently downloaded tag ZIP.
• Download URL SHA-256: b08c1128756f7fc56de8deb98f9e1cb859b5f76063b39843e395aaed2b440214. This identifies the submitted GitHub tag archive, not the separately packaged release asset.
• Fresh template-integrity test: all seven shipped JSON templates parse and bind release 0.3.4 (exit 0).
• Real-project integration includes TinyPl0 PR #98 and the completed six-repository rollout, which retain the installed Authoring v0.3.4 within the composed governance profile.
• Completed-series lifecycle documentation and boundary hardening.

Counts: 13 template entries, 5 commands, and 9 production script files (6 Bash/PowerShell wrappers and 3 Python implementation/resolution helpers); tests are excluded from the script count. Python 3 is required for configuration and archive-resolution paths, including the corresponding PowerShell wrapper paths.
