read_only was the whole decision on the Hexis act path, which flattened three
answers into two. A capability that wipes the thing it names got the same
single spoken "да" as one that restarts a service, and requires_confirmation —
which the Hexis contract calls server-derived and never settable by a caller —
was read by nobody. docs/ecosystem.md §17.3 says confirmation follows risk.
RiskOfCapability reads Hexis's risk, read_only and requires_confirmation and
returns one of the three tiers internal/tool already had. It takes plain values
rather than a Capability, so internal/tool keeps no dependency on the Hexis
client. RiskOf keeps deriving, because a shell row the owner ticked on /tools
has no upstream to ask.
Every disagreement between the three fields goes up, never down: safe and
mutating is a contradiction and takes the confirm, an unrecognised tier takes
the confirm, and requires_confirmation may only raise. Same default as an
unrecognised dispatch shape — argue your way down, never up.
The irreversible refusal was a Go literal in two places and is now one deck
entry, act_needs_authed_surface. It lost four words to the persona ceiling.
