+"""
+ASEx integration for MALKHUT.
+
+Builds ASEx's validate-before-mutate kernel into the core of MALKHUT:
+  - GuardedFulfilmentState: engine state mutations through ASEx
+  - GuardedRiskState: risk gate decisions through ASEx
+  - GuardedVenueState: venue adapter mutations through ASEx
+  - FulfilmentWorker: single-threaded ASExWorker for serialised engine
+  - ShardedFulfilmentWorker: per-symbol ShardedWorker for parallelism
+  - FulfilmentWatch: zero-overhead ASExWatch for hot-path ring buffer
+
+The pattern: every mutable state object is an ASExGuardedState.
+_mutate() calls _validate() first, then _apply() only if valid.
+One worker thread per state. No locks. No races. No GC pressure.
