//! The wire protocol spoken between the client and the `salus-agent`.
//!
//! The agent holds, for each enrolled *set*, the `threshold - 1` automatically
//! retrievable shares (loaded from the OS keyring at login) and the single
//! passphrase-sealed final share. The client queries the agent for the auto
//! shares and asks it to unseal the final share with a user-supplied passphrase,
//! then forwards every share to the daemon to unlock the store.
