BattleTag ff3a05d7ce feat(strategist) S3: propose_lead / declare_investigation_complete
DESIGN_STRATEGIST.md §2.5. The strategist's two write actions.

propose_lead validates motivating_hypothesis exists in the graph,
validates expected_evidence_type is a real edge type, validates
source_id refers to a real source in the case — fast specific
errors so the strategist gets fixable feedback rather than a
generic crash. On success, calls graph.add_lead with proposed_by=
"strategist" and round_number=graph.current_strategist_round so
the round-completion code can collect this round's leads.

declare_investigation_complete sets graph.strategist_complete_requested
which the orchestrator inspects after each strategist run to decide
whether to break the loop. reason must come from a closed enum so
the audit log is consistent.

EvidenceGraph gains two transient run-context fields:
  current_strategist_round       — set by orchestrator at start of round
  strategist_complete_requested  — flipped by declare_complete

These are intentionally NOT persisted — they're per-run flags, not
graph state.

Both tools required to be in InvestigationStrategist.mandatory_record_
tools (added in S4) so the agent's forced-retry mechanism kicks in if
it returns without taking a documented decision.

"""Central tool registry — catalogs all available forensic tools.
Tools are registered once at startup. Sleuth Kit tools resolve their image
path and partition offset from graph.active_source at call time, so a single
registered tool follows whichever evidence source is currently active.
The AgentFactory uses this catalog to compose agents dynamically.
