capsule-runtime 0.6.0

//! The untrusted fence: the markers that name where a piece of model-facing content came from.
//!
//! Every tool result the runtime hands the model, every skill result whose `murmur.lock` origin
//! derives [`crate::origin::TrustClass::Untrusted`] (see [`crate::origin::artifact_trust`]), every
//! task payload whose derived trust class is untrusted, every formation member's answer to a
//! `call-member` call, and every sub-capsule's outcome delivered into the task that delegated to
//! it, arrives wrapped between
//! [`open_marker`]'s output and [`FENCE_CLOSE`]. The fence is a *marker*, not a capability
//! control: nothing is refused, delayed or reordered for being fenced, no grant is widened or
//! narrowed by it, and the model is free to act on what it reads. It gives the model a stable
//! rule, stated in its system prompt, and an operator a boundary to point at in a trace.
//!
//! The one content the runtime fences against is a *forged closer*: bytes that a tool fetched
//! which themselves spell a marker, aiming to end the block early and have the rest read as the
//! runtime's own voice. [`neutralise_markers`] rewrites those before the fence is closed, so the
//! fence emitted here provably closes exactly once, at its own final marker.
