Accept only merges if the task carries a prNumber, and nothing said how a
human sets one. It goes through the generic patch command; without this the
merge gate reads as unreachable from the CLI.

Five resources shipped with no documentation and one documented lie:
docs/inference-tasks.md still told people `mcpctl get tasks` lists the
inference queue. Work items own that name now.
Adds docs/epics.md (the Epic -> EpicTask -> Task hierarchy, the state machine,
risk-scaled review gates, the accept-merges gate, and reconciliation),
docs/gitproviders.md (forge registration, discovery/import, merge-on-accept,
post-merge reopen) and docs/agent-authority.md (the three run modes, and
plainly which two are not implemented).
Two things found while writing them, both fixed rather than filed:
- `webhookSecretKey` was read by the webhook route but writable from NOWHERE
-- absent from the create schema, update schema, service, CLI and apply
spec. Since the endpoint fails closed on a null key, post-merge CI failures
could never reopen their task; the board would keep claiming `merged` for
work that broke the build. Adds --webhook-secret-key, the schema fields and
the apply key, with tests covering persist / omit / explicit-null /
reject-empty. Omission deliberately does not clear the column, so an
unrelated edit cannot silently disarm the webhook.
- src/cli/src/commands/create.ts contained a literal NUL byte inside a string
literal (a binary-file check written with the raw character rather than an escape). Identical behaviour, but it made the whole file read as
binary, so `grep -I` skipped it entirely and 1120 lines of CLI were
invisible to every text search. Replaced with the escape.
The Epic write path (criteria/status/tradeoffs) is API-only -- documented as
such rather than papered over, and filed as task 180.
Full suite 2612 green; lint at baseline 794/77.
