+/**
+ * Safety-contract matrix loader for HealthLog v1.4.25 W14c.
+ *
+ * Six YAML files (one per locale) sit alongside this module and carry
+ * the safety-critical clauses that every Coach + Insights system prompt
+ * must surface verbatim. The loader parses + validates each file at
+ * startup via Zod and exposes typed accessors so the rest of the AI
+ * layer never reads the raw YAML.
+ *
+ * Why YAML and not TypeScript constants:
+ *   - The matrix is a translator-facing artefact. A YAML file is easier
+ *     to diff-review across six locales than a long TS string template.
+ *   - The locale bodies are LARGE (each ~3-5 KB) — keeping them out of
+ *     the TS source keeps the prompt assembly module under 150 lines.
+ *   - The Zod schema catches drift the same way at startup as a
+ *     TypeScript type check would at build time.
+ *
+ * Why a single source-of-truth per locale instead of per-prompt:
+ *   - The same GROUND RULE 9 (GLP-1 dose refusal) appears in both the
+ *     Coach prompt and the Insights prompt. Sourcing both from the
+ *     matrix lets us ratchet the safety language once and propagate to
+ *     every surface.
+ *
+ * The refusal-probe-test (refusal-probe.test.ts) drives 14 contracts
+ * times 6 locales times 20+ adversarial paraphrasings = >1680
+ * assertions against this matrix. The maintainership-banner update
+ * tells users that the FR/ES/IT/PL bodies are AI-drafted and links to
+ * the GitHub issue template for reporting refusal regressions.
