+# Decision Brief — Native Kanban SOT, Decision #3
+
+**Decision:** Do not permit a writable file fallback. Adopt **Option A: PostgreSQL as the sole writable source of truth (SOT), with fail-closed mutations**.
+
+## Context and decision rule
+
+The approved design already makes PostgreSQL the canonical writable store, generates a read-only `TASKS.md` view, uses a mechanical coordinator, and reserves the Certifier as a final gate without merge authority. The remaining question is whether a PostgreSQL outage should permit writes to a local file for later reconciliation.
+
+This decision is not “database availability versus file availability.” It is whether the system preserves one authoritative ordering, identity, and audit trail during failure. Given Kubernetes deployment, Longhorn DiskPressure/replica-loss history, and GitOps recovery paths, the safer design is to make a database outage visible and operationally explicit, then recover the one authority. It is not to create an emergency second authority whose reconciliation semantics must be correct under the worst conditions.
+
+## Options assessed
+
+| Dimension | A — PostgreSQL only; mutations fail closed | B — writable local file fallback; reconcile later |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| **1. Data integrity** | **5/5.** Every accepted mutation is validated, ordered, transactionally committed, and constrained in one place. During DB loss, the system accepts no new state it cannot durably prove. PITR restores a known consistent point; subsequent replay is explicit rather than implicit. | **2/5.** A local file may be atomically written on one host, but it cannot preserve global transaction ordering, database constraints, cross-card invariants, or durable identity allocation without duplicating database behavior. A host crash, partial write, clock skew, or stale local copy can leave an apparently valid but semantically invalid queue of changes. |
+| **2. Split-brain / dual-writer risk** | **5/5.** There is one writer and one failure mode: unavailable means refuse writes. Read-only exports are deliberately non-authoritative and cannot race the database. | **1/5.** The fallback is a second writer precisely while reachability is uncertain. “DB down” can be a network partition, a single pod failure, or a stale health signal while PostgreSQL is still writable elsewhere. Reconciliation then needs conflict policy for edits, transitions, assignments, approvals, idempotency, ordering, and deletes; choosing “file wins” or “DB wins” loses valid work in some cases. |
+| **3. Outage operability** | **3/5.** Mutations stop, which is painful but honest. Operators can continue with read-only exports, incident handling, and a documented restoration clock; automation does not silently create divergent work. The coordinator should expose a clear degraded status and reject writes deterministically. | **4/5 for immediate intake, 1/5 for total operational burden.** Operators can keep entering work locally, but each outage becomes a reconciliation incident. Staff must know which host owns the file, whether its writes were imported, and whether the DB was actually unavailable. The apparent availability shifts complexity to a higher-risk, later moment when context is worse. |
+| **4. Disaster recovery** | **5/5.** Backup plus WAL-based PITR restores the same authoritative data model to a selected point. Recovery is testable: restore PostgreSQL, validate, then re-enable one writer. Longhorn incidents are mitigated by backups stored outside the Longhorn failure domain. | **2/5.** A file fallback does not replace database recovery: the recovered DB still needs authoritative restoration, then uncertain import. If the fallback file shares the failed node/volume, it is not an independent recovery mechanism. If it is replicated, it becomes another distributed datastore that needs backup, encryption, retention, and restore testing. |
+| **5. Auditability** | **5/5.** Database events can carry actor, correlation ID, timestamp, prior/new state, idempotency key, and approval reference in a transaction. Refused writes are also observable as outage evidence. The generated file is a reproducible view, not an editable audit source. | **2/5.** Git/file history can record text changes, but it cannot reliably bind a mutation to the same authenticated principal, authorization decision, transaction boundary, or approval consumption as PostgreSQL. Later import timestamps and commit order are not necessarily the original event order. Manual edits are difficult to distinguish from intended fallback entries. |
+| **6. Migration and rollback** | **4/5.** Migration has one cutover: seed/validate PostgreSQL, generate the read-only file, and disable legacy writes. Rollback restores a database backup/PITR point and regenerates exports. A brief write freeze is understandable and testable. | **1/5.** Every migration and rollback must also define whether fallback files are enabled, which schema/version they target, how they are replayed, and how already-imported records are detected. A rollback after a fallback import can reintroduce records or lose conflict resolutions. |
+
+### Tradeoff conclusion
+
+Option B buys local write acceptance during an outage, but it does so by abandoning the property the SOT was selected to provide: one authoritative transaction history. A “fallback” that requires distributed ordering, conflict resolution, identity semantics, authorization replay, and exactly-once import is a second datastore, not a safety valve. It is less safe than a deliberately unavailable mutation path backed by independently recoverable PostgreSQL.
+
+## Recommendation
+
+**Choose Option A: PostgreSQL is the sole writable SOT. When PostgreSQL is unavailable or its write-health cannot be proven, all Kanban mutations fail closed; they are never redirected to files.**
+
+Read-only `TASKS.md` exports remain useful for situational awareness and incident continuity, but are explicitly marked generated/non-authoritative and are never accepted as an import source. If Jason needs to capture ideas while the system is unavailable, use an out-of-band human note or issue intake outside the Kanban mutation API; that note is a proposal to enter after recovery, not shadow Kanban state.
+
+## Minimum safeguards for Option A
+
+### Recovery objectives and backup design
+
+- **RPO:** 15 minutes maximum for committed Kanban state. **RTO:** 4 hours maximum to restore the writable service after a regional/Longhorn-class storage incident; target 60 minutes for a single-pod or local volume incident.
+- **Continuous WAL archiving:** archive PostgreSQL WAL at least every **5 minutes** to encrypted object storage outside the Kubernetes cluster and outside Longhorn. Retain PITR capability for **35 days**.
+- **Base backups:** take a verified physical base backup **daily**; retain daily backups for 35 days, weekly backups for 13 weeks, and monthly backups for 12 months. Keep at least one copy in a separate failure domain/account where feasible.
+- **Exported evidence:** generate the read-only `TASKS.md` plus a machine-readable signed/checksummed snapshot **hourly** and on every successful release. Retain exports for 90 days. Exports support visibility and reconciliation of human context; they are never writable recovery input.
+- **Restore proof:** conduct a documented PITR restore test **monthly** and a full break-glass exercise **quarterly**, measuring actual RPO/RTO and verifying record counts, event/audit integrity, and generated export consistency.
+
+### Break-glass restore procedure
+
+1. **Declare write freeze.** Put the Kanban mutation endpoint and coordinator in explicit maintenance mode; deny all writes with a stable outage code. Do not enable a file writer.
+2. **Preserve evidence.** Record incident time, database/Longhorn symptoms, last healthy transaction/WAL archive, and the target recovery timestamp. Preserve affected volume and pod evidence before destructive actions when practical.
+3. **Restore outside the failed path.** Provision a clean PostgreSQL instance/volume from a verified base backup and apply archived WAL to the approved target timestamp. Do not restore solely from a Longhorn replica after a replica-loss incident without validation.
+4. **Validate before reopening.** Run automated integrity checks, verify schema version, audit/event continuity, key Kanban invariants, and compare a regenerated read-only export with the restored state. Obtain designated incident-owner approval to reopen writes.
+5. **Cut over one writer.** Update GitOps/Kubernetes configuration to the validated database endpoint, verify a canary read and authorized write, then remove maintenance mode. Generate and publish a fresh read-only export.
+6. **Close and learn.** Reconcile any human outage notes as new, attributable post-recovery entries; never bulk-import a local shadow file. Record achieved RPO/RTO and corrective actions.
+
+### Monitoring and alerting
+
+- Alert on PostgreSQL write probe failure, replication/WAL archive failure, backup age exceeding 24 hours, PITR archive lag exceeding 10 minutes, backup verification failure, and restore-test failure.
+- Alert on Longhorn DiskPressure, replica degradation/loss, volume robustness below healthy, node filesystem pressure, and sustained database latency/error-rate thresholds.
+- Expose a single Kanban health state: `healthy`, `read-only-degraded`, or `write-unavailable`. Mutation clients must distinguish an intentional fail-closed denial from a retryable transport error.
+- Alert on export generation/checksum failure and export age exceeding 75 minutes. This is visibility degradation, not permission to write the export.
+
+## Residual risks and mitigations
+
+- **Risk: an outage blocks legitimate priority work.** Mitigation: publish the write-unavailable state, keep an incident contact/runbook, and permit human notes as proposals for attributable post-recovery entry—not as shadow state.
+- **Risk: backup/PITR is misconfigured or untested.** Mitigation: independent off-cluster storage, archive/backup freshness alerts, monthly restore tests, quarterly break-glass drills, and RPO/RTO measurement.
+- **Risk: Longhorn loss exceeds local recovery assumptions.** Mitigation: treat Longhorn as an availability layer, not the only recovery layer; restore from external PostgreSQL backups/WAL to clean storage.
+- **Risk: stale read-only exports mislead operators.** Mitigation: include generated-at timestamp, source commit/checksum, and visible `READ ONLY / NOT AUTHORITATIVE` labeling; alert on export staleness.
+- **Risk: manual emergency database changes weaken the audit trail.** Mitigation: time-box break-glass access, require incident ID and SQL/audit capture, use peer review after restoration, and regenerate exports immediately after validation.
+
+---
+
+## OWNER RATIFICATION + FLEXIBILITY AMENDMENT (Jason, 2026-07-13)
+
+Decision #3 is **RATIFIED: adopt Option A.** Amendment for multi-tenant reality — the recovery *posture* must be per-deployment configurable so simpler/single-user installs are not forced into USC's high-assurance targets. The core safety invariant is unchanged.
+
+### FIXED INVARIANTS (non-negotiable safety guarantees; NOT configurable)
+1. PostgreSQL is the sole writable SOT.
+2. Mutations FAIL CLOSED when write-health cannot be proven — never diverted to a writable file. (This is the anti-split-brain guarantee.)
+3. Read-only exports (`TASKS.md` etc.) are non-authoritative and are NEVER an import/recovery source.
+4. Out-of-band human notes are post-recovery PROPOSALS, never shadow Kanban state.
+
+### PER-DEPLOYMENT CONFIGURABLE (recovery posture — tune to user need)
+RPO/RTO targets · WAL archive cadence · PITR retention window · base-backup cadence + retention tiers · read-only export cadence · restore-test / break-glass drill frequency · backup storage location & failure-domain policy.
+
+### Suggested default profiles
+- **Lite (single-user default):** nightly logical backup, no external object storage required, PITR optional/short, manual restore. Minimal ops burden.
+- **Standard:** daily base backup + WAL to external storage, ~7-day PITR, quarterly restore test.
+- **High-assurance (USC profile):** RPO 15m / RTO 4h, ≤5-min WAL off-Longhorn/off-cluster, 35-day PITR, monthly restore test + quarterly break-glass.
+
+The invariants hold in every profile; only the recovery-posture knobs vary. **Build hold LIFTS.**

+[homelab] DECISION #3 VERDICT — independent brief complete, reviewed + endorsed by homelab orchestrator. RECOMMENDATION: OPTION A — PostgreSQL sole writable SOT, mutations FAIL-CLOSED; NO writable file fallback.
+
+Rationale: a file fallback is a second writer exactly when reachability is uncertain -> split-brain/dual-writer. 'DB down' is often a partition, single-pod failure, or stale health signal while PG is still writable elsewhere; reconciliation then needs conflict + ordering + identity + authz-replay + exactly-once import semantics = a second datastore, not a safety valve. It is strictly less safe than a deliberately-unavailable mutation path backed by independently-recoverable PostgreSQL.
+
+Jason's safety need is met WITHOUT a fallback: out-of-band human notes become PROPOSALS for attributable post-recovery entry, never shadow Kanban state; read-only TASKS.md exports stay non-authoritative and are never an import source.
+
+MINIMUM SAFEGUARDS: RPO 15m / RTO 4h (60m single-pod); WAL archiving <=5min to encrypted object storage OFF-Longhorn + off-cluster; 35-day PITR; daily base backups (35d/13w/12m tiered retention, >=1 copy in separate failure domain); hourly signed/checksummed read-only exports; monthly PITR restore test + quarterly break-glass drill; tri-state health (healthy / read-only-degraded / write-unavailable) so mutation clients distinguish an intentional fail-closed denial from a retryable transport error.

One AMENDMENT: recovery posture must be per-deployment CONFIGURABLE, not hardcoded to your high-assurance targets — many installs will be simpler/single-user.
+
+FIXED INVARIANTS (non-negotiable — the split-brain safety guarantee; identical in every profile): (1) Postgres sole writable SOT; (2) mutations FAIL CLOSED when write-health unproven, never diverted to a writable file; (3) read-only exports non-authoritative + NEVER an import source; (4) out-of-band notes are post-recovery proposals, never shadow state.
+

+
+DEFAULT PROFILES (ship these so simple installs stay simple): Lite (single-user) = nightly backup, no external object store required, manual restore; Standard = daily backup + WAL to external storage, ~7d PITR, quarterly restore test; High-assurance (your profile) = RPO 15m/RTO 4h, <=5-min WAL off-cluster, 35d PITR, monthly + quarterly drills.

Continue HOLD until canonical artifacts are merged and assignments are issued from that single decomposition. Thank you for catching the ownership boundary before duplication.

+[homelab] ALIGNED — ownership boundary settled, thank you. Confirmed: (1) web1 mos-claude owns the plan; it publishes canonical requirements + mission manifest + TASKS decomposition + frozen shared contract (DB schema/migration ownership, mechanical-Coordinator port interface, DTO/event boundaries, health enum {healthy|read-only-degraded|write-unavailable}) to current stack main; neither side forks. (2) HOLD continues until those artifacts merge and slice assignments issue from that single decomposition. One flag on homelab-fleet BUILD participation: it is WANTED and I'm inclined, but committing my fleet to build slices is an owner (Jason) call — I've escalated the build-vs-review-only decision to him async and will not spin homelab coders until he confirms. That does NOT block you: it's orthogonal to publishing canon. Please ping this channel with the stack-main path once the canonical contract + decomposition land, so I can independently review the frozen contract regardless of which role homelab lands in. Standing by.

+## Tess Interaction Agent Workstream (TESS)
+
+### Problem and Objective
+
+Jason needs one durable, operator-facing Mosaic agent outside Hermes that is reachable through a dedicated Discord channel and CLI, can attach to and operate the Mosaic fleet and transitional Hermes agents, and preserves context across restarts and compaction. Mos remains the coding/general fleet orchestrator; Tess is the complementary human interaction, visibility, control, and migration agent.
+
+The objective is to ship **Tess** (from _tessera_, a piece of a mosaic) as a Pi-native, GPT-5.6 Sol agent with high reasoning. Tess must use Mosaic-owned contracts and plugins so Hermes can be replaced incrementally rather than becoming a permanent architectural dependency.
+
+### Scope
+
+#### In Scope
+
+1. `TESS-ARP-001`: A runtime-neutral `AgentRuntimeProvider` contract supporting `listSessions`, `streamSession`, `sendMessage`, `terminate`, `getSessionTree`, `attach`, health, capability discovery, and normalized events/errors.
+2. `TESS-PI-001`: A long-running Pi-native Tess agent profile/service pinned to GPT-5.6 Sol with high reasoning, explicit tool policy, lifecycle hooks, durable checkpoints, and restart recovery.
+3. `TESS-DSC-001`: Dedicated Discord channel binding to Tess through the Mosaic gateway, with allowlists/RBAC, thread/reply policy, streaming, attachments, approvals, and correlation IDs.
+4. `TESS-CLI-001`: `mosaic tess` CLI commands for chat, status, session listing, attach/detach, send/steer/stop, provider health, and recovery.
+5. `TESS-FLT-001`: Fleet plugin capabilities for roster/status/heartbeat inspection, message delivery, session hierarchy, safe attach, and controlled restart/recovery.
+6. `TESS-MOS-001`: Explicit Mos coordination boundary and tools: hand off orchestration requests, observe mission/task state, receive results, and never silently compete for orchestration authority.
+7. `TESS-HRM-001`: Transitional Hermes adapter for profiles/agents, sessions, streaming/messages, Kanban, skills, memory, tools, cron, and health, using capability negotiation and fail-closed unsupported operations.
+8. `TESS-MEM-001`: Unified memory/retrieval plugin with scoped search/recent/capture/stats, startup context injection, provenance, redaction, namespace isolation, and flat-file/project truth precedence.
+9. `TESS-STA-001`: Durable agent state, inbox, handoff, compaction-recovery, and resume reconstruction.
+10. `TESS-PLG-001`: Plugin/tool catalog covering runtime bootstrap, repository/PR workflow, fleet diagnostics, incident-safe read operations, Discord interaction, and extensible MCP/skill discovery.
+11. `TESS-TRN-001`: Replaceable transport providers: tmux/fleet now, Matrix/native Mosaic transport later, with no Discord/CLI business logic coupled to transport details.
+12. `TESS-SEC-001`: RBAC, per-operation authorization, explicit approval for destructive/privileged/customer-visible actions, audit events, secret/PII redaction, tenant isolation, and bounded command execution.
+13. `TESS-SEC-002`: Command execution SHALL enforce declared scope/role server-side; admin/system and destructive operations SHALL require policy-bound durable approval.
+14. `TESS-SEC-003`: Every session list/read/attach/send/terminate operation SHALL enforce server-derived owner and tenant scope; guessed or client-supplied IDs SHALL grant no authority.
+15. `TESS-SEC-004`: MCP tools SHALL derive actor/tenant from authenticated context and SHALL NOT accept caller-controlled identity fields.
+16. `TESS-SEC-005`: Discord plugin ingress SHALL authenticate service identity, enforce guild/channel/user allowlists, propagate correlation/message IDs, and reject replay.
+17. `TESS-SEC-006`: Secret/PII classification and redaction SHALL occur before persistence and before channel egress, including tool metadata and authentication flows.
+18. `TESS-SEC-007`: Approvals SHALL be one-time, expiring, actor/tenant-bound, and cryptographically bound to the exact structured action digest.
+19. `TESS-SEC-008`: Ingress, provider sends, tool side effects, and responses SHALL use durable inbox/outbox/checkpoints and idempotency records for restart-safe replay.
+20. `TESS-SEC-009`: Garbage collection and retention SHALL be session/tenant scoped unless executed as a separately authorized and audited system-wide job.
+21. `TESS-OBS-001`: Structured logs, traces, health/readiness, provider latency/errors, session lifecycle, tool audit, and actionable recovery diagnostics.
+22. `TESS-MIG-001`: Capability inventory and staged Hermes-to-Mosaic migration matrix with coexistence, cutover, rollback, and deprecation gates.
+
+#### Out of Scope
+
+1. Replacing Mos as coding/general fleet orchestrator.
+2. Making Hermes the Mosaic core or coupling Mosaic domain logic to Hermes schemas.
+3. Migrating every historical chat verbatim; only policy-compliant indexed summaries and user-selected sessions are migrated.
+4. Unrestricted shell execution from Discord.
+5. Full web UI parity in the first Tess operational milestone; gateway contracts must remain web-consumable.
+6. Replacing tmux before Matrix/native transport reaches operational parity.
+
+### Stakeholder and User Requirements
+
+- Jason must be able to converse with the same Tess session from Discord and CLI.
+- Jason must be able to see what is running, stale, blocked, or unhealthy without attaching manually to every session.
+- Jason must be able to attach to Tess and authorized fleet sessions through supported CLI controls.
+- Tess must collaborate with Mos and the fleet while preserving a single clear orchestration authority.
+- The system must migrate useful Hermes/OpenClaw capabilities intentionally, with evidence, instead of copying implementations wholesale.
+
+### Non-Functional Requirements
+
+1. **Security:** default-deny provider/tool capabilities, least privilege, no secrets in logs/prompts/commits, Discord user/channel authorization, and auditable approvals.
+2. **Reliability:** durable inbox/checkpoints; idempotent message handling; reconnect with bounded backoff; no message loss or duplicate execution across gateway restart.
+3. **Performance:** first acknowledgement within 2 seconds when connected; streamed agent output begins within 5 seconds excluding model/provider delay; status reads return within 2 seconds under nominal local conditions.
+4. **Observability:** every ingress message and resulting provider/tool operation carries a correlation ID across Discord, gateway, Tess, provider, and audit events.
+5. **Maintainability:** channel, runtime, transport, memory, and external-agent integrations remain adapter-based with contract tests.
+6. **Privacy:** only scoped context enters external runtimes; persisted messages/memories follow retention and redaction policy.
+7. **Portability:** Tess runs through Pi/Mosaic contracts and does not require Hermes to start or serve native Mosaic operations.
+
+### Acceptance Criteria
+
+1. `AC-TESS-01`: A dedicated Discord channel and `mosaic tess chat` connect to one durable Tess session and stream responses bidirectionally.
+2. `AC-TESS-02`: `mosaic tess status|sessions|tree|attach|send|stop` operate against authorized provider capabilities with stable typed outputs and actionable errors.
+3. `AC-TESS-03`: Tess runs GPT-5.6 Sol at high reasoning and its effective runtime/model/tool policy is visible through status without exposing credentials.
+4. `AC-TESS-04`: Tess can inspect and message the Mosaic fleet, hand orchestration work to Mos, and demonstrate that Tess does not independently claim Mos-owned orchestration work.
+5. `AC-TESS-05`: Hermes adapter demonstrates session listing, streaming/message delivery, hierarchy mapping, and at least one approved capability in each of Kanban, skills, memory, tools, and cron—or reports unsupported capabilities fail-closed.
+6. `AC-TESS-06`: Restart/compaction test preserves session identity, pending inbox, last durable checkpoint, and a resumable handoff without duplicate side effects.
+7. `AC-TESS-07`: Unauthorized Discord users/channels, cross-tenant access, unsafe tool calls, forged approvals, and sensitive-output cases are denied and audited.
+8. `AC-TESS-08`: tmux/fleet and Matrix/native transport implementations pass the same provider contract suite; Matrix may remain non-default until readiness gates pass.
+9. `AC-TESS-09`: Baseline quality gates, unit/integration/contract tests, Discord+CLI E2E, restart/recovery tests, independent code review, and security review are green.
+10. `AC-TESS-10`: Migration matrix documents every audited Hermes/OpenClaw capability as native, adapted, deferred, or rejected, with cutover and rollback evidence.
+11. `AC-TESS-11`: User, admin, developer, API/OpenAPI, operations/recovery, and plugin-authoring documentation is current and linked from the sitemap.
+
+### Constraints, Dependencies, Risks, and Assumptions
+
+- Dependency: Mosaic gateway remains the single API surface; Pi is the native runtime; Valkey/PostgreSQL provide canonical durable state where required.
+- Dependency: Discord bot credentials and dedicated channel ID are deployment secrets provisioned outside source control.
+- Risk: Tess could drift into a second orchestrator. Mitigation: explicit role policy, Mos handoff contract, authority checks, and E2E boundary tests.
+- Risk: broad Hermes compatibility can freeze legacy semantics into Mosaic. Mitigation: Mosaic-owned normalized contracts and capability negotiation.
+- Risk: Discord creates a privileged remote-control surface. Mitigation: pairing/allowlists, RBAC, approvals, rate limits, audit, and safe tool classes.
+- Risk: transcript ingestion can violate privacy or overload memory. Mitigation: scoped opt-in import, redacted summaries, provenance, retention, and deduplication.
+- Risk: current root filesystem has limited headroom. Mitigation: isolated worktrees, no duplicated dependency installation unless required, and cleanup only after active-lane verification.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` The public name is **Tess**, because the user requested a name and the tessera/Mosaic relationship is distinctive; config must permit later display-name changes without renaming APIs or storage keys.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` The dedicated Discord channel ID and final guild policy will be supplied/provisioned during deployment, so implementation uses explicit configuration and fail-fast startup validation.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` tmux/fleet is the production transport for the first operational milestone; Matrix/native transport is implemented behind the same contract and promoted only after parity/reliability verification.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` Project/task truth remains in canonical Mosaic/project stores; semantic memory systems are retrieval/mirror layers, not hidden authorities.
+
+### Testing and Delivery Intent
+
+Delivery uses five gated milestones: runtime contracts/security; Pi service/state; Discord/CLI; fleet/Hermes/plugin suite; migration/Matrix/recovery/qualification. Every source-code task requires tests, independent review, a PR to `main`, terminal-green CI, and issue/task closure. Production activation additionally requires a clean-host Pi launch, dedicated Discord channel smoke test, CLI attach test, restart/recovery drill, and rollback procedure.

+### Discord service ingress security
+
+The Discord adapter is an authenticated gateway service, not an anonymous Socket.IO client. It presents `DISCORD_SERVICE_TOKEN` during its `/chat` connection and signs each inbound envelope using HMAC-SHA-256. The envelope contains the Discord native message ID and a generated correlation ID. Gateway verifies the service credential, signature, and configured guild/channel/user allowlists before agent dispatch, then rejects duplicate native message IDs inside its bounded replay window. All three allowlists are default-deny and required when the Discord plugin is enabled. The service credential is injected at runtime and is never logged or included in protocol payloads.
