candor_classify/policy.rs
1//! The canonical CANDOR_POLICY DSL parser (candor-spec SPEC §6.2).
2//!
3//! This is the **single** Rust implementation of the policy grammar — shared by the nightly dylint
4//! gate (`src/lib.rs`, AS-EFF-006/008/009) and the stable `candor-query` (`whatif`, and the
5//! `parsepolicy` dump the cross-impl conformance suite diffs against the JVM engine). Keeping one
6//! parser here is what makes "the gate means the same thing in every language" a fact rather than a
7//! hope: the Rust gate, the Rust pre-edit tool, and the cross-impl differential all read THIS code.
8//!
9//! Pure, stable Rust (string parsing only — no rustc types), so it lives beside the classifier.

425/// ⟨0.24⟩ ONE POLICY LINE THE PARSER DID NOT HONOUR AS WRITTEN (SPEC §3.1 `901f14d` / `195d45a`).
426///
427/// **THE DEFECT.** `parsepolicy` emitted **no `errors` key at all** (measured 2026-07-28 on the
428/// conformance battery: java 10, ts 4, rust 0, swift 0). Every one of these facts existed — they were
429/// printed to stderr as "ignoring policy rule …" — so the verb whose entire purpose is to let a consumer
430/// diff what an engine made of a policy answered the question with the not-honoured half deleted. Worse,
431/// it was INCONSISTENT with this engine's own gate: the gate refuses an unrecognised class token while
432/// the parse narrowed it silently, which is two answers to one question.
433///
434/// **`kind` IS A CLOSED SET, AND IT IS THE SPEC'S, NOT THE REFERENCE ENGINE'S.** `901f14d` pins four
435/// values: `reason-class/alias`, `Net destination-class`, `effect-name`, `rule-kind`. Measured, candor-java
436/// emits `forbid form`, `allow values` and `rule kind` (space, not hyphen) — three values outside the set
437/// and one spelling divergence — and candor-ts renames `kind`→`vocabulary` and `rule`→`where` and emits
438/// `accepted` as a PROSE STRING. This engine follows the clause: a line that names a rule keyword but does
439/// not form that keyword's rule formed no rule kind, so it is `rule-kind`.
440///
441/// `accepted` is an ARRAY OF TOKENS — the tokens that WOULD have been honoured in the position the bad one
442/// occupies. Empty where the position is open-ended (a host, a path), which is a fact about the grammar
443/// rather than a gap in the report.
