memstead-base 0.14.0

//! Runtime CRUD validators consumed by the unified [`crate::Engine`] —
//! the single mutation engine, whatever storage backend (mem-repo git
//! branch, plain folder, archive) sits behind a mount.
//!
//! Distinct concern from [`crate::validator`], which validates sealed
//! archive bytes at the registry / read-mem ingress boundary. This
//! module sits *inside* the mutation engine and gates per-mutation
//! payloads (section keys, metadata keys, enum values) against the
//! pinned schema. The wire-format error codes
//! (`UNKNOWN_SECTION`, `UNKNOWN_METADATA`, `INVALID_ENUM_VALUE`,
//! `MISSING_REQUIRED_SECTION`) are stable regardless of workspace
//! storage, so MCP callers always see the same envelope shape.
//!
//! Returns a typed [`ValidationError`] (or a list of
//! [`MissingRequiredSection`] for the warning surface) — the engine
//! layer above wraps these into its error/Result type.
