basis-host 0.13.0

//! Shared approval-mode machinery for long-lived hosts.
//!
//! basis itself deliberately exports the [`Approver`] trait and nothing more:
//! "always allow" and "refuse" are ordinary approvers, and "ask" is whatever
//! host is in charge of the run. A long-lived frontend host needs one more
//! thing, though: a switchable three-mode policy over that trait, plus
//! session-scoped remembered answers that clear when the policy changes.
//!
//! The two invariants are the ones basis-acp had to get right first and every
//! later frontend would otherwise rebuild:
//!
//! - A request already put to the client is decided by the policy that was in
//!   force when it was put. [`PolicyApprover`] therefore reads the policy once
//!   per request, before asking, and never again for that request.
//! - Every "for this session" answer is forgotten on any policy switch. A stale
//!   remembered allow surviving a switch to a stricter mode would be a silent
//!   override of the very policy switch the host just made.
//!
//! Both invariants live *here*, in process memory, which is what makes them
//! enforceable: [`PolicyApprover`] keeps the "…for this session" answer in
//! [`SessionApproval`] and hands basis a plain allow or deny, so nothing
//! reaches mentra's persisted rule store and a policy switch can genuinely
//! clear everything. A host that passes the raw `…ForSession` decisions
//! through instead gets basis's own duration for them — remembered on the
//! live session, cleared at the next attach — which is documented on
//! `basis::ApprovalDecision`.
//!
//! [`PolicyGate`] is the third piece, and the one that is not about what this
//! layer writes. Both invariants above are enforced on the *approver*, and an
//! approver only ever sees what the runtime gate surfaced and no remembered
//! rule already answered. That is fine for a policy that decides between
//! asking and allowing, and not fine for one that refuses: a durable rule
//! seeded on the store would answer ahead of it. So
//! [`ApprovalPolicy::Never`]'s refusal is stated as an authorizer, where
//! mentra treats it as final.

///
/// # Why the refusal is here and the rest is not
///
/// `ApprovalGate` answers nothing — every consequential call comes back as a
/// `Prompt` — and that is what lets the policy be read per call, one layer up,
/// where `session/set_mode` arrives. mentra resolves a `Prompt` against the
/// conversation's remembered rules *before* the approver is consulted, so a
/// durable Global- or Project-scope allow seeded through the session's
/// permission handle answers ahead of the policy. For [`Always`] and
/// [`Prompt`] that is unremarkable: both permit consequential work, and a
/// standing allow is a host saying so in advance. For [`Never`] it is a
/// standing override of the one thing that mode promises.
///
/// So this gate answers [`Never`] itself, with a `Deny` mentra returns
/// unchanged — no rule is read, no `PermissionRequested` is emitted, and the
/// approver is never reached. Every other policy still surfaces the call
/// exactly as `ApprovalGate` did, remembered rules and all.
///
/// The policy is read from the shared [`SessionApproval`] on each call, so one
/// installed gate follows a session across every switch. It is deliberately
/// read *per call* rather than per turn: a gate that cached the policy it was
/// installed under would be the stale answer this whole module exists to
/// prevent.
///
/// # What it does not close
///
/// A durable rule still answers ahead of the client under [`Always`] and
/// [`Prompt`], because under those policies the gate still says `Prompt`.
/// Revoking one is mentra's business
/// ([mentra#43](https://github.com/oops-rs/mentra/issues/43)), not something a
/// posture can express. And a rule remembered against a *read-only* tool is
/// never consulted under any policy — this gate allows a non-consequential
/// call outright, exactly as `ApprovalGate` does, for the reason written on
/// [`basis::approval::is_consequential`].
///
/// # And why it carries no timeout
///
/// [`ApprovalGate`](basis::ApprovalGate) has a `with_timeout`, and installing
/// this gate replaces the runtime's, so the obvious thing is to mirror the knob
/// so a host can restate a bound it would otherwise lose. **That knob does not
/// do what its name suggests, so this gate does not offer one.**
///
/// A `ToolAuthorizer`'s timeout is mentra's bound on mentra's own wait. When it
/// fires, mentra drops the authorization, denies *that call*, and lets the turn
/// carry on. It does not touch basis's side: `basis`'s event forwarder is
/// parked inside `Approver::approve` for the same request
/// (`basis/src/run/prepared/forward.rs`), and nothing wakes it, so a run whose
/// approver never answers **never returns, bound or no bound** — measured, not
/// assumed. What a bound really buys is an earlier refusal for an approver that
/// answers *late*; what it is reached for is the approver that never answers,
/// and there it buys nothing.
///
/// So the recourse for an unanswered request is the one that actually unparks
/// the approver, and every host that installs this gate already needs it: over
/// ACP the client sends `session/cancel` — which the protocol *requires* of a
/// client abandoning a `session/request_permission`, and which `basis-acp`
/// implements and pins (`tests/acp/permission.rs`) — and a host on another
/// transport bounds its own approver, which is the layer that is genuinely
/// waiting. Adding a knob here would have offered a guarantee that reads like
/// that one and is not.
///
/// [`Always`]: ApprovalPolicy::Always
/// [`Prompt`]: ApprovalPolicy::Prompt
