🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Use the local gate for every standards pull request.

When scripts/check-ts-allowlist.sh already exists on main, Line 379 is false. The job then runs the stale .standards-checkout copy, so a standards pull request that changes the gate does not execute its changed gate. Select the local script first whenever GITHUB_REPOSITORY is hyperpolymath/standards. Keep the shared copy for consumer repositories.

Proposed fix 
-          if [ ! -f "$SCRIPT" ] && [ "$GITHUB_REPOSITORY" = "hyperpolymath/standards" ] \
