Require a caller-owned artifact resource scope for source traversal and Git metadata reads. Preserve cancellation, filesystem reasons, partial entries and bytes, and cleanup observations through import and the CLI. Transfer exact failed file owners at regular-file admission and close boundaries, including multiple failures encountered by Git reference resolution.
Validation: 169 focused tests passed across 26 files; two Windows-only cases skipped. Build, typecheck, lint, formatting, knip, architecture guards, discovery and docs checks passed.
BREAKING CHANGE: Reference source readers and imports require an ArtifactResourceScope. VCS metadata reads return Result, and CLI import failures include observed details and partial evidence.
Use the shared nonblocking, no-follow regular-file opener at the source-read boundary and report a nonregular replacement as changed. Keep descriptor identity and extent checks.
The compiled subprocess regression timed out on the baseline and completes without a FIFO writer after this change. Reference reader failure, capacity, cancellation, and import checks pass.
