fix: allow crystallize to approve own session proposals

CHANGELOG.md

@@ -12,6 +12,7 @@ All notable changes to vouch are documented here. Format follows
 
 ### Fixed
 - Raise `ProposalError("forbidden_self_approval")` in `proposals.approve()` when `approved_by == proposal.proposed_by`, enforcing the review-gate guarantee documented in the README and CONTRIBUTING.
+- `crystallize()` now sets `review.approver_role: trusted-agent` context so single-agent sessions can be crystallized without hitting the `forbidden_self_approval` guard (#47).
 - Bundle import rejects tar members whose path escapes `kb_dir`
   (CVE-2007-4559, #9). Previously a crafted `.tar.gz` with a member
   named `../../evil.txt` could write outside `.vouch/`; the manifest
