permission_inheritance.rs

//! Pre-dispatch permission-inheritance gate.
//!
//! When `permission_inheritance = on`, lean-ctx mirrors the host IDE's
//! tool-permission rules onto its own MCP tools so that, e.g., `ctx_shell`
//! honors the user's `bash` / `rm *` rules instead of forming a parallel,
//! ungoverned execution path. Shaped like [`super::role_guard`]: returns a
//! blocking [`CallToolResult`] message, or `None` to proceed.
//!
//! The decision is split into a pure `decide` (policy in, decision out — fully
//! unit-tested) and a thin [`check`] that loads/caches the IDE policy from disk.
//! lean-ctx never *writes* the IDE's `permission` block; this is read-only.
