The plan's pre-receive-hook pseudocode judged owner-elevation authority on the
post-change `signer.role` (so a self-promoting Admin reads as Owner in the same
commit and self-authorizes the promotion — the exact escalation the gate exists
to stop). f249395 had fixed only the skip-predicate, leaving this final check
vulnerable. Align the plan's `enforce_owner_only_elevation` to the SHIPPED fix
(relicario-server/src/main.rs, aace6f1): derive `signer_may_manage_owners` from
`signer_parent = parent_role(signer.member_id)` (the signer's PRE-commit role;
None -> reject; genesis allowed) and gate on that, never the post-change role.
The spec was already policy-correct in prose ("a member-role-change granting
owner/admin must be signed by an owner") and did NOT carry the vulnerable
implementation detail; strengthened it with an explicit pre-commit-role note so
the design record pins the property and no one re-derives the vulnerable form.
