Merge #531: separate the blocked forge MCP server from the working GITEA_TOKEN
CI / build (push) Successful in 1m30s
CI / contract (push) Successful in 1m32s

Charter wording only — 9 insertions, 4 deletions, one file. CI run 1780 on
be07ed2: success.

Resolves the "charter may be stale" item I had been carrying. It was not stale.
Two workers reporting working forge access and the charter saying forge tools
hold a blocked credential were both correct, about two different credentials:
the repo-scoped GITEA_TOKEN the daemon injects (which opens every worker PR,
per implementer SKILL.md step 5) versus the forge MCP server that leaks in from
the operator's user-scope config (which is deliberately blocked). The wording
did not separate them, and a worker could have read it as "I cannot reach the
forge" and skipped opening its PR.

Both sentences now name the MCP server specifically and state that the injected
token is a separate, working route.

Canonical block and wiki template verified byte-identical after the edit — the
CLAUDE.md sync script reports "in sync: True". The wiki commit is d02a55d on
wiki's own main, pushed and verified by ref (ls-remote matched local HEAD), not
by exit code. The submodule pointer stayed unstaged.

Not re-measured in this change: that the blocked MCP credential does fail every
call. That claim is the existing charter's and I only narrowed what it refers
to. It would need its own probe with a request that cannot succeed on its
merits, so that a rejection can only mean the block.

not your only forge route, and the two must not be confused: the repo-scoped `GITEA_TOKEN` the
