Reframe the queued uid-split decision into a broader hardening analysis.
Audit found the same-uid attack surface (DB readable from srcds, ptrace
allowed, RCON stored plaintext) is closable by either uid split or
systemd directive composition; the three specs ground that choice in a
threat model, survey the defenses, and lay out a self-contained test
plan to run on left4.me next. uid-split spec deferred pending results.

Short companion to the existing topic-specific handoff docs. Captures
the situationally-fresh state at the end of the 2026-05-15
deploy-dir-rethink + janitorial sweep so a fresh session can pick
up cold: what just landed, what's next (uid-split), what's NOT next
(build-overlay-unit, until uid-split decides), and the
decision-relevant signals that emerged during this session — mostly
that the 2-uid model was freshly load-bearing in the build-time-idmap
work and that srcds hardening already covers most of what a
gameserver-uid split would add.
