 Gate commands return binary PASS/FAIL for automation.
 Review commands return detailed reports for human review.
+
+**Contract Version:** Gate commands declare `gate_contract: vN` in their frontmatter. The version in this table is what projman expects. If a gate command bumps its contract version, this table must be updated to match. The `contract-validator` plugin checks this automatically via `validate_workflow_integration`.
