Independent 0-context review: clean 0.8.8 release bump (Cargo.toml/Cargo.lock/npm/CHANGELOG consistent); nix extraRegistries crates-io-to-static.crates.io rewrite verified against nixpkgs import-cargo-lock.nix template and Cargo.lock checksums (axum/tokio/serde sha256 + http 200, 403 repro at api endpoint); .gitignore change is pure dedupe (xcodeproj/xcworkspace lines removed, no such paths in tree)
