1//! Diagnostics as data: the closed reason vocabulary and the typed error
2//! report.
3//!
4//! An error is a value with named parts, rendered at the boundary — never
5//! a pre-formatted string assembled where the failure happened. The exit
6//! code stays the coarse machine signal; the `reason` beside it is the
7//! fine one, drawn from one closed vocabulary agents can branch on the
8//! way scripts branch on exit codes. The vocabulary is append-only: a
9//! reason is never renamed and never reused.

20/// or absent: a failure nothing can classify further stays [`Reason::Io`]
