+// Description:
+//   Monitors register-output activity across N_BLOCKS independent blocks.
+//   Each block supplies a 1-bit activity pulse (act[i]).
+//   An independent 3-bit saturating idle counter tracks each block.
+//
+//   Counter rules:
+//     - reset to 0 and clk_en[i] stays 1 when act[i]=1 (activity)
+//     - increments each cycle act[i]=0, saturates at IDLE_THRESH (=7)
+//     - when counter reaches IDLE_THRESH and act[i] still 0 on next cycle:
+//       clk_en[i] deasserts → ICG freezes that block's clock
+//     - clk_en[i] reasserts immediately on the next clock edge after activity
+//
+//   ICG wakeup safety: clk_en is a registered output — no combinational
+//   glitch path into the ICG latch input.
+//
+// Interface:
+//   clk       — system clock (50 MHz TT target)
+//   rst_n     — active-low synchronous reset
+//   act       — [N_BLOCKS-1:0] activity pulses: 1 = block had register change
+//   clk_en    — [N_BLOCKS-1:0] ICG enables: 1 = clock running, 0 = gated off
+//
+// Estimated cell count: N_BLOCKS × (3-bit counter ~4 + comparator ~3 + FF ~1) ≈ 8×8 = ~64
+// Total with glue: ~72 cells — well within 180-cell budget.

+// Description:
+//   Wires cg_activity_monitor + 4× clk_gate_cell to 4 low-activity blocks:
+//     Block 0: lucas_rom       — combinational ROM, zero register activity when idle
+//     Block 1: ring27_memory   — ternary ring, idle when shift=0 and wr_en=0
+//     Block 2: alu9_decoder    — combinational ALU decoder, idle when no opcode issued
+//     Block 3: blake3_anchor   — hash engine, idle between start pulses
+//
+//   Activity detection uses a 1-bit XOR pulse per block:
+//     - lucas_rom:     act = any change in idx (top-level combinational — no regs;
+//                      activity pulse = idx changing, driven from ui_in)
+//     - ring27_memory: act = shift | wr_en  (register activity on either control)
+//     - alu9_decoder:  act = valid          (decoder produced a valid result)
+//     - blake3_anchor: act = start | done   (hash engine starting or completing)
+//
+//   Each block receives a gated clock (clk_gated[i]). The blocks themselves
+//   are NOT modified — they still receive the same functional signals. Only
+//   the clock line is gated via the ICG cell.
+//
+//   Note: lucas_rom and alu9_decoder are combinational (no FFs). Their gated
+//   clock ports are connected but have no registered downstream — this is safe
+//   and the ICG cell becomes a zero-power dead branch that synthesis optimizes
+//   away (or retains as a hook for future pipelined versions).
