ci(01-07): minimum-viable GitHub Actions workflow running npm run ci on push + PR (PIPE-06)

- Single-job workflow at .github/workflows/ci.yml (~49 lines including load-bearing comments)
- runs-on: ubuntu-latest, timeout-minutes: 10
- Uses actions/setup-node@v4 with cache: 'npm' (per RESEARCH CI Pitfall A — never cache node_modules/)
- Node 22 (per RESEARCH § Environment Availability)
- Triggers on push to main and pull_request to main
- Steps: checkout → setup-node → npm ci (lockfile-strict) → npm run ci (lint + test + validate-assets + build)
- Per CONTEXT user pushback: NO matrix, NO test reporters, NO Codecov, NO release automation
- Local npm run ci exits 0 (53 tests passing across 12 files); workflow will be green on push
- Structurally enforces every Phase 1 success criterion on every commit going forward

+# Phase 1 — minimum-viable CI per RESEARCH Open Question #4 + CONTEXT user pushback
+# against ceremonial workflows (.planning/phases/01-foundations-and-doctrine/01-CONTEXT.md).
+#
+# On every push to main and every pull request:
+#   - npm ci (lockfile-strict install — refuses on package.json drift)
+#   - npm run ci (lint + test + validate-assets + build, defined in package.json)
+#
+# This single job satisfies PIPE-06: Vitest tests run on every CI build.
+# Phase 2+ economy tests flow through the same `npm run ci` chain — no workflow change
+# is needed when more tests are added.
+#
+# Deliberately omitted (per CONTEXT user pushback against ceremony):
+#   - OS matrix (Linux only is fine; PIPE-04 visual regression testing is Phase 8)
+#   - Node-version matrix (one supported version is enough for solo-dev)
+#   - Test reporters / Codecov uploads (no coverage requirement in Phase 1)
+#   - Release automation (no releases until Phase 2 ships Season 1)
+#   - Notification integrations (the project owner reads GitHub directly)
