Cycle commits shell out to system git with a synthetic harness author, so operator commit-author hooks reject every tool cycle. Using global user.name and user.email when both are set makes those hooks see a real identity.

Keep author resolution file-private and drain git-config stderr so piped git children cannot stall. Tests drive the default path through the store with an isolated GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL and pin both author and committer.

Summary
user.nameanduser.emailwhen both are set, so commit-author hooks see a real identity.Cycle commits go through system git. A hardcoded harness identity made every tool cycle fail on hosts with an author allowlist.
