Phase 1.0BL: fixture import failure and new one-shot gate

Status: BK_CONSUMED_BEFORE_FIXTURES_CORRECTED_RUNNER_AUTHORIZED_ONCE

Date: 2026-07-29

The single BK suite attempt exited with code 1 while importing the first local tools module. Python reported ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'tools'. The failure occurred before main, before construction of the facade and before any of the four fixture processes. BK is consumed and is not retried.

The runner now inserts its repository root in sys.path; its exact corrected source and commit are bound below. BL grants one new suite attempt against the same four BK fixtures. This is a new reviewed host-only permission, not an automatic retry. No materializer request, SDL/RetroArch build, artifact or PS5 action is authorized.
