action.rs

1//! What a tool call asks to do, in two forms.
2//!
3//! [`Action`] is the call as a host adapter reports it: one per payload,
4//! before any classification. [`AtomicAction`] is one primitive operation the
5//! classifier derives from it (an argv, a path read or written, a host, an
6//! environment variable, an MCP tool name). Policy rules are matched against
7//! atoms, never against an `Action` directly; [`Action::kind`] and
8//! [`AtomicAction::kind`] map each to the rule [`Kind`] it belongs to.
