Removes the Go source, Dockerfile, go.mod, and Kubernetes manifests. The
deployed service is untouched and the review desk still calls it over
window.SKILLS_REVIEW_VOTE_API; only the source leaves.
The runbook does not leave. vote-service/README.md moves to
docs/vote-service.md, because it carries the parts that are hard to
rediscover: why the ingress overwrites X-Forwarded-For and Caddy stamps
X-Client-IP instead, why the image is side-loaded into containerd rather
than pulled, and why the PVC pins the Deployment to one node.
This drops verify.mjs from 84 assertions to 83. The removed one read
vote-service/main.go for X-Forwarded-For and 'one active vote per skill'
-- the review desk's only anti-abuse control -- and there is no file left
to read. It is the first assertion this repository has ever lost.
Rather than lower the gate's floor and leave a bare number behind,
gate.sh now subtracts the number of entries in
.agents/context/assertion-removals.md from the baseline. A removal costs
a written reason in a tracked file, in the same commit, as a visible
diff. Tested at 82 assertions: still refused.
Also drops the 22 MB of PNG baselines under .agents/snapshots/before/ and
before-reduced-motion/. They pictured the hand-written site, which no
longer exists; visual-regression.mjs has no compare mode to diff them
against; and they are recoverable from d88d8b8.

The skills-review desk is static, so "which draft would you ship?" needs a
stateful counterpart. vote-service is a small Go API on its own pod backed by
a JSON file on a ReadWriteOnce PVC, with one active vote per skill per source
IP as the anti-abuse rule and CORS (ALLOWED_ORIGIN) as the caller boundary.
Deployment notes that differ from the obvious path, all confirmed against the
live cluster: the image is side-loaded with `ctr image import` plus
`imagePullPolicy: Never` because kubelet has no credentials for the Nexus ref;
the pod is pinned to `kubernets` because the hostpath PV takes a nodeAffinity
for whichever node first binds it; and public exposure is Caddy on the VPS,
not the cloudflared tunnel.
The ingress controller runs with `use-forwarded-headers` off, so nginx
overwrites X-Forwarded-For with its own peer — every visitor would collapse
into one voter and each skill would cap at one vote overall. Caddy stamps the
true remote address into X-Client-IP, which nginx forwards untouched, and
clientIP() reads that first. Scoped to this app rather than flipping the
global flag, which would change client-IP handling for every other ingress.
