Pre-fix, a routing-failure page was stored in the HTTP response cache as
200 and served byte-identically to every later visitor until restart
(cold 2s -> warm 0.0005s). dc7aa709 made http_render_page return
(html, is_error) and gated cache insertion on `not is_err`.
Extend scripts/test-protocol-gate.sh with an HTTP-mode case: fresh
sx_server.exe --http on a random port (timeout-bounded, own child killed),
GET the same nonexistent path twice, assert both requests re-render (two
[sx-http] render lines) and the "[cache] ... error page, not cached" gate
line appears. Standalone-worktree caveat (all docs pages render as soft
error pages, so no positive cache control) documented in the script.
5/5 protocol-gate green; 267/0 sx gate pins. All seven section-A test-debt
pins now landed (K18, K20, K09/K11/K39, K49, crit-2, C1/C1b, S4).

Pre-fix, one malformed or non-ASCII line on sx_server's top-level command
channel raised an uncaught Parse_error and killed the whole shared process
(bridges + conformance runners). dc7aa709 guards the parse; the server now
answers (error N "Malformed command line: ...") and keeps serving.
Add scripts/test-protocol-gate.sh: per case, spawn a fresh timeout-bounded
sx_server.exe (never touches a shared process) and assert the error
response, the follow-up epoch still evaluating, and a clean exit. Cases:
C1 unterminated list + garbage line, C1b non-ASCII byte (exact review
repros from plans/sx-review/hosts.md), plus a well-formed control. 4/4
green. Structured to grow into W14 section E's protocol fuzz suite (C3-C7).
Test-only: no semantics edits, no push.
