QualityGatesConfig

Configures metric-delta quality gates inside the qualityGates { } block.

A gate fails aalekhCheck when a structural metric got worse than the committed baseline (aalekh-baseline.json, written by aalekhBaseline). This lets a team ratchet architecture quality in one direction only - no backsliding on a long refactor.

aalekh {
    qualityGates {
        // Fail the build if any of these regressed versus the baseline.
        forbidRegression("cycles", "ccd", "god-modules")
        severity.set(Severity.ERROR)   // default ERROR; use WARNING to only report
    }
}

Valid metric keys: cycles, god-modules, ccd, tangle, instability, critical-path. Gates only fire once a baseline with a metrics snapshot exists; regenerate it with aalekhBaseline.
