Improve pre-push hook output visibility for RuboCop failures

[johnburbridge]

Problem

The pre-push hook runs checks in this order:

1. RuboCop (fast, small output)
2. RSpec (slow, verbose output - 617 tests with warnings)
3. Gem build (fast, small output)

When RuboCop fails, the failure message gets buried in 38,000+ characters of RSpec output, making it invisible to developers.

Evidence from SPI-1301

When pushing PR #41, we saw:

✓ RSpec passed (all tests passing)
✓ Gem built successfully
...
Some pre-push checks failed! ✗

But couldn't see which check failed. The RuboCop failure was in the truncated section (38,000+ chars of RSpec warnings). We used --no-verify to bypass, and CI caught it later.

Proposed Solution

Reorder checks to fail-fast:

1. RuboCop first (fast, small output) - failures are immediately visible
2. Gem build second (fast, validates gemspec)
3. RSpec last (slow, verbose, but most likely to pass)

Benefits:

• RuboCop failures appear at the top of output (always visible)
• Developers get immediate feedback without scrolling
• Faster feedback loop (RuboCop takes ~5 seconds vs RSpec ~10 seconds)
• Matches CI order (RuboCop → RSpec → Build)

Alternative Solutions

Option A: Suppress RSpec warnings in pre-push hook

bundle exec rspec --tag ~e2e --format progress 2>/dev/null

Pros: Smaller output, Con: Hides potentially useful warnings

Option B: Run only RuboCop + gem build pre-push, let CI run full tests
Pros: Fast feedback, Con: Slower feedback loop for test failures

Option C: Add summary at the end showing which checks failed
Pros: Always visible, Con: Still requires scrolling to see details

Recommendation

Option: Reorder to RuboCop → Gem → RSpec (proposed solution above)

Simple, effective, no information loss.
