+/**
+ * The words a steer message reaches a running agent in (issue #646, DES-STEER-VIA-READONLY-INBOX-MOUNT).
+ *
+ * Built on the WORKER side, never in the runner: the runner hands `content` to pi verbatim through `sendMessage`, so
+ * what the agent reads is decided here, by the process that also holds the inbox, and a runner bug cannot drop the
+ * framing. Pure and never throws: an entry it cannot frame is `null`, which the relay must treat as a refusal (it
+ * writes no file), never as an empty message.
+ *
+ * WHAT THE FRAME SAYS, in order:
+ *   1. a heading that names the message as data, not instructions;
+ *   2. who sent it. A forge author is named only by what the payload subset holds (a user id, numeric on GitHub,
+ *      GitLab and Forgejo, a GUID or an `azid-` digest on Azure DevOps, and the association the author gate judged:
+ *      there is no login in it, INT-WEBHOOK-PAYLOAD-SUBSET); an operator by the
+ *      surface (a console token's name, the command line, the dispatch panel). Every interpolated value is held to a
+ *      closed charset first, so attribution can never carry text a sender chose;
+ *   3. for a follow-up, the sentence that says it was meant to wait until the agent had finished;
+ *   4. the rule that it carries no authority, with the pointer to rule 2 of the operating rules;
+ *   5. the message itself, verbatim, inside `fenceBlock` (the same fence the trigger's own text gets), so a body
+ *      holding ``` cannot close the fence and continue as harness text.
+ *
+ * WHY AN OPERATOR MESSAGE GETS NO MORE AUTHORITY THAN A COMMENT. Standing operator authority lives in the reviewed
+ * triggers file (`run.instructions`). A console token or a shell on the host is a weaker, unreviewed channel; were its
+ * words framed as rules, a leaked console token would be a way to rewrite the guardrails of a run in flight.
+ *
+ * Fixed text avoids dashes as punctuation (the project's prose rule), and stays free of backticks so the frame can
+ * never shorten or close the fence that follows it.
