sequence_eval.rs

//! One evaluation of the sequence-rule language, and a record of what it evaluated.
//!
//! Two things live here, and the second is the reason the first moved.
//!
//! **One implementation, most of the way.** The rule language had two evaluators. `assay-metrics`'
//! `sequence_valid` handled `Require`, `Before` and `Blocklist` and resolved no aliases;
//! `assay-mcp-server`'s `check_sequence` handled all eight variants and did resolve them.
//! The same suite YAML therefore got two answers, and the silent one was the pass: a
//! `never_after` rule, which is the shape a credential-read-then-egress policy is written
//! in, fell through the metric's `_` arm and reported a clean run. `assay-metrics` cannot
//! call `assay-mcp-server` (the dependency runs the other way), so the shared home is here.
//!
//! `assay-mcp-server` has not called through yet: its JSON violation shape is a published tool
//! contract and porting it means preserving message text field by field. Until it does the two
//! are guarded by `assay-mcp-server/tests/sequence_eval_parity.rs` rather than by a shared call,
//! which is the fallback CLAUDE.md sanctions and the weaker of the two options. What that test
//! guards is not hypothetical: a differential over every trace of length <= 5 on a three-symbol
//! alphabet found 213 `after` disagreements between the copies at this module's first commit.
//! Those were closed by the `after` rewrite, not by [`TraceExtent`]; the extent parameter creates
//! divergences of its own, by design, which is why the parity test pins the proxy's reading.
//!
//! **A record, not a verdict.** Each rule yields a [`RuleEvaluation`] naming the rule, the
//! call indices it read, and what it found. A consumer recomputes the conclusion from the
//! carried span rather than accepting a severity, which is what ADR-042 requires of a claim:
//! bounded, and checkable by someone who does not trust the producer. Nothing here
//! aggregates: there is no score, no whole-run verdict, and a caller that wants one has to
//! write the reduction itself and own it.
//!
//! [`RuleOutcome::NotExercised`] is the member that makes the record worth carrying. A
//! `before` rule whose `then` tool never appears passes without its antecedent ever firing,
//! and a rule kind this build does not implement passes for a different reason entirely.
//! Both used to be indistinguishable from a rule that ran and held. They are separate values
//! now, for the same reason [`crate::metrics_api::Exercised`] exists one layer down.
