Under `set -e` bash exempts every command of an AND-OR list except the last,
so `npm run gen:api && git diff --exit-code ...` silently swallowed a CRASH
in gen:api: the diff never ran and the script sailed on to print "local CI
passed". Verified directly — `bash -c 'set -e; false && true; echo hi'`
prints hi and exits 0, while `false; true` exits 1.
This was not hypothetical. It hid a real gen:api crash introduced by RB-09
(dotnet swagger's design-time host defaults to Production, which that ticket
made throw at startup). .github/workflows/ci.yml would have caught it, since
it runs each step as its own `- run:` — so the local gate was strictly weaker
than the remote one, which is the opposite of its stated purpose.
Six steps were affected. The worst was `ng build ssp --localize && ng build
behandelportal --localize`: a missing English translation in ssp — the exact
thing the second-locale gate exists to catch — could not fail the run.
The one `( cd backend && ... )` step is safe as-is and left alone: a subshell
propagates its own non-zero status, so errexit sees it.
