+// The OpenCode `hub` tool: one tool with a verb parameter (msg, ask, reply, decline, inbox, who, status, whoami, and
+// the act verbs approve, deny, answer, prompt, stop) that talks to the hub's /api/agent as the calling session, through the shared SDK (packages/sdk) with the
+// session's own token (Spoke.shellIdentity). The token is only ever sent to the hub: it never appears in the tool's
+// output or metadata (and is redacted should a hub echo it back).
+// Act verbs (HUB_TOOL_ACT_VERBS) use the session's act token instead (Spoke.actIdentity, decision #1 of
+// phase 3): the only credential the hub lets a session act with, which the spoke never puts in any environment.
+// toolIdentity picks the token per verb and never falls back from one kind to the other. Messages from other sessions are shown in the
+// hub's envelope (packages/sdk/src/envelope.ts), sanitised, and marked as not coming from the user.
