docs: confirm conda_avail relocation via first real conda-full run

[mixmansoundude]

Summary

Doc-only follow-up closing the verification loop CLAUDE.md's own conda_avail relocation note (PR #394) asked for: "Watch that first run closely before proceeding to step 2 (wiring the 27 conditions)."

• Downloaded the ci_test_results-selftest-conda-full-* NDJSON artifact directly from PR ci: add missing backslash-variant artifact path for test-results.ndjson #395's merge run (30266482736) rather than relying on the console log, and confirmed the diag.conda.available row: {"id":"diag.conda.available","pass":true,...,"details":{"available":true}} -- available correctly flips to true now that the step sits after selfapps_envsmoke.ps1's real conda install, exactly as the relocation predicted.
• This is read-only verification only, not a step-2 implementation. Wiring the 27 if: conditions to conda_avail still needs its own separate, explicit owner sign-off, per the existing reasoning in CLAUDE.md (two independent bugs already came out of this exact mechanism across PR ci: lane-aware if:always() rollout for remaining 36 gating-lane steps (item 7) #390/ci: fix conda_avail circular gate silently skipping conda-full self-tests #391/docs/tools: address PR #391 CodeRabbit findings; add advisory MD029 markdownlint check #392).

Test plan

• tools/run_sanity_sweep.sh CLAUDE.md -- all checks OK (doc-only diff, no code touched)

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Documentation
  • Added a backlog note recording verification of the relocated Conda availability diagnostic during a CI run.
  • Clarified that dependent CI conditions remain unchanged while staged rollout work continues.

Walkthrough

CLAUDE.md adds an Active Backlog note documenting a conda-full CI run where diag.conda.available reported available: true. The note identifies the observation as read-only verification and defers dependent conditional wiring.

Changes
