+- **fix(release):** the local merge-train now runs the four i18n contract gates on every combined tree before an `--admin` merge — `i18n:check-keys` (every `en.json` key in all 65 dashboard catalogs), `i18n:check-keys:cli`, `i18n:check-ratio` (real-translation ratio) and the docs drift gate (`check-translation-drift.mjs`) — so a PR that adds dashboard keys without translations or edits a documented page without its mirrors is ejected from the train instead of landing on the release tip. Three such landings reached `release/v3.8.51` in 48 h (#13670, `1b2349de`, `7f1b4a5e`) although each PR's own CI was red on the same gates, because the train validated only typecheck, size/complexity and changelog integrity.
