chore(release): v0.35.0 — the friction round

[avrabe]

Release prep for v0.35.0. Version bump + notes; no functional change.

Scope — 12 artifacts

3 verified — REQ-274/275/276, the customer dashboard trio.
9 implemented — REQ-299, 303, 304, 305, 309, 310, 311, 312, 313.

Every issue a human reported this cycle is fixed: #832, #833, #835, #848,
#852, #853, #854, #856. That's the release's identity.

Cut with nine at implemented, deliberately

Each carries a named undischarged clause, recorded in the artifact rather than
rounded up — the --fail-under policy on REQ-309, the git: fallback and lock
error message on REQ-312, release-status categories on REQ-313.

Holding until every clause is discharged would recreate, at release scope,
exactly the deadlock REQ-313 exists to detect: a criterion dischargeable only
by a release shipping. The residuals are stated in the notes.

Two things that were reporting correctly and being ignored

Kani had been failing on a real error[E0063] since REQ-309 added fields to
CoverageEntry and missed the #[cfg(kani)] harness — invisible to
cargo build, cargo test and clippy --all-targets, i.e. the entire local
self-verify set. I dismissed roughly six red Kani checks as infrastructure flake
before another lane found it (#865).

The Test job's evidence step could produce no JUnit XML and still go green
(#833). Both are the same shape as the defects this release is about.

docs check caught two of my own errors

A stale binary reporting the pre-bump workspace version, and a forward reference
to the next minor in the changelog. Both fixed before pushing — worth noting
because the gate did its job on the release that is partly about gates doing
their job.

Files

Cargo.toml (0.34.0 → 0.35.0), Cargo.lock (rivet-core, rivet-cli, etch),
vscode-rivet/package.json, CHANGELOG.md. npm/platform package.json files
are intentionally untouched — release-npm.yml derives the version from the tag.

Gates

cargo fmt --check · clippy --all-targets -D warnings on 1.97.0 ·
cargo test --workspace (exit 0, 65 ok, 0 failed) · rivet validate ·
rivet docs check — all exit 0.

After merge

Signed tag, then verify against the released binary — and confirm
test-evidence/test-results/junit.xml is actually in the compliance bundle,
which is the check that silently failed for four releases (#293).
