//! #008 layer 2: what tier is this tool call?
//!
//! The cli's session lane (`/auto`, `--auto`, the per-tool `[a]` grant, and
//! since #1228 the DEFAULT session) is standing, unattended authority. The
//! ceiling on that authority already exists and already has its reasoning
//! written down — `crate::hitl::tier_may_be_granted`, capped at `Write`:
//!
//! > `Spend`, `Destructive` and `Privileged` are exactly the actions whose
//! > cost a human cannot undo by noticing later, and `NetworkEgress` is how
//! > data leaves — none of them belongs behind a config line today.
//!
//! Gate A (`mur-core/src/hitl/gate.rs:82`) consults it. Gate B — the chat
//! gate the TUI drives — had no tier at all, so the ceiling could not bind it.
//! This module supplies the missing input, and nothing more.
//!
//! ## What this is NOT
//!
//! Not a safety proof. It is a deny-list over command heads, and a deny-list
//! is only ever as good as its last audit. Trail of Bits (2025-10) showed
//! allowlisted commands driven past their classification by argument
//! injection; the same trick works on a head-matching deny-list. So:
//!
//! - **The fallback is `Write`, not `Read`.** An unknown head still counts as
//!   mutating, which keeps it inside the ceiling and auto-answered. Falling
//!   back to `Privileged` would make the #1228 default ask on every unfamiliar
//!   build command and train blind approval — the exact failure the read-lane
//!   comment in `stream_handler.rs` describes.
//! - **`Read` is never guessed.** It is delegated to `bash_class`, which
//!   already fails safe on shell metacharacters and has an audited head list
//!   with a "do NOT re-add without a full audit" note on it.
//! - **Metacharacters escalate.** `a; rm -rf b` is not classifiable by head,
//!   so anything carrying a chain/substitution operator that also names a
//!   high-tier word is treated as that high tier rather than parsed.
//!
//! This is layer 2 of three. Layer 1 is the sandbox/entitlement floor, which
//! is unaffected by any of this and denies regardless. Layer 3 — an intent
//! classifier that may raise a tier but never lower one — is deliberately not
//! here: adding a model on top of a gate this leaky would be using it to patch
//! static logic it cannot see.
