Audit system
Companion mods can record staff actions through one common API. Audit entries can include the timestamp, source module, action type, staff UUID, target UUID, and additional details.
Entries are stored in world/justcore/audit.jsonl using an append-only JSON Lines format suitable for external tools and future integrations.

Commands require operator permission level 2.
