Case contract

Layers in precedence order: env var FLAG_<KEY uppercased with "-" -> "_">, local overrides[key], remote[key], then the default. A layer is used only if its value is valid for the default's type, else the next layer is tried. Non-env values must have exactly the default's type (bool is not int). Env strings: bool defaults accept "true"/"false" case-insensitively; int defaults accept digits with an optional leading "-"; str defaults accept any string. Return [value, source].

Why this case matters

Local and environment overrides are how operators pin flags during incidents; precedence must be exact.
