Doing a bit more research --
At least one item was simply a matter of me confusing myself -- my expectation that cookbook files would be stored in the cache on the client node appears to have been simply inaccurate. Watching the HTTP PUT by knife cookbook upload clearly shows the files in question being put, and their names and signatures are included when the node retrieves its list of cookbooks. I simply wasn't seeing anything being done with run_client on account of it being less verbose than shef's default logging level (and because my run_list was inappropriately constructed, not including the recipe in which I was inserting extra logging).
It looks like there's only one real issue here, and I'm wondering if it's simply a limitation of the "solo" mode shef -z runs in:

Is cookbook_file expected to work in the context of shef -z?
Beyond that, please accept my apologies for the noise.

I've got several very odd things, likely unrelated, happening in Chef 0.9.12 -- listed here in order of importance:
- "chef-client" exits without invoking any recipes, whereas "run_chef" in shef -z actually tries to run the cookbooks applied to this node.
- the files/ directory in one of my cookbooks isn't being pushed to the cache on my client
- the shef command cookbooks.all appears to display "nil" for each cookbook
Pointers on any of these would be appreciated.
