Evidence gate notes

• Included: #23810, #27632, #25212, #21778, #21801, #21685, #24433, #22986, #23450, #24188, #23567, #22958, #23327, #21798, #21589, #21549 after full body/comment reads; each explicitly identifies v0.13.0 / 0.13.0 / v2026.5.7 as affected or reproduced.
• Excluded: #22315 was excluded because it is third-party dashboard/release-score commentary, not direct upstream reproduction evidence; #24837 was not separately counted because it is marked duplicate of #22908/#22958-style multiline/confirmation input regressions and would double-count the same CLI input class.
