+ * `staticPath`, `slug`, `default`, `version`, `description`, `author`,

+ * (`z.input<typeof PluginSchema>`), so the keys the compiler accepts on a
+ * plugin object and the keys `kernel.use()` validates
+ * (`PluginLoader.validatePluginContract`, #16049) are ONE declaration. Before
+ * this the interface spelled `type` and `version` itself and declared neither
+ * `staticPath` nor `slug`, so an in-repo `ui` plugin could not carry the two
+ * keys the schema requires of it without widening its own type — two shapes
+ * for one contract, free to drift.
+ *
+ * **The runtime half is declared here and only here**: `name`, the ADR-0116
+ * ordering declarations, and the `init` / `start` / `destroy` lifecycle. The
+ * spec's schema describes what a plugin OBJECT may say about itself, never
+ * what it does.
+ *
+ * ### `type`
+ *
+ * The inherited `type` is a {@link PluginType} — the closed set the spec
+ * declares (`'standard'` plus `CORE_PLUGIN_TYPES`); `packages/rest`'s
+ * `plugin-type-closed-set.pin.test.ts` pins that the inherited key and the
+ * exported alias are the same union. Absent means `'standard'` at the schema
+ * (`.default('standard')`), and the loader never writes that default back
+ * onto the object. A value outside the set no longer type-checks, and since
+ * #16049 `kernel.use()` REFUSES it at boot — `assertPluginContract`
+ * (`plugin-contract.ts`, run by BOTH `ObjectKernel.use()` and `LiteKernel.use()`
+ * since #16721) runs `PluginSchema` over every plugin object and raises
+ * `PLUGIN_CONTRACT_VIOLATION` naming the plugin and the first violated key.
+ * `type: 'ui'` additionally owes `staticPath` and `slug` (#16334,
+ * `PLUGIN_UI_REQUIRED_KEY_MISSING`), refused on the same path.
+ *
+ * ⚠️ This comment used to say a bad `type` was refused "at parse". It was
+ * measured false (#16049, from #15638): `PluginSchema` had no runtime caller,
+ * kernel plugin objects were never parsed, and a `type` outside the set was
+ * accepted and stored verbatim. The refusal described here is the one that
+ * now exists, on the boot path, and the compiler's arm is the second half
+ * rather than the only one — `kernel.use(plugin as any)` is a shipped
+ * in-repo pattern, and externally authored plugins never meet this compiler

+/**
+ * [#13905] The discriminator that tells **"nothing ever registered this
+ * service"** apart from **"the service IS registered and could not be built"**
+ * on the ASYNCHRONOUS resolution path.
+ *
+ * ## The fault
+ *
+ * `PluginLoader.getService` (reached through `Kernel.getServiceAsync`) answered
+ * both facts with the same bare `Error`. A caller that holds only the rejection
+ * therefore could not tell an UNWIRED embedder from a BROKEN one, and the only
+ * thing separating them was message text.
+ *
+ * That mattered one layer out. `RestServer.computeExecCtx`'s kernel branch
+ * absorbs a failed `getServiceAsync('objectql')` and degrades to "no engine is
+ * wired". It must keep doing so — a kernel with no data plane is a SUPPORTED
+ * configuration (`rest-api-plugin.ts` declares
+ * `optionalDependencies: ['com.objectstack.engine.objectql']`) — but a
+ * multi-tenant host whose engine FAILED TO CONSTRUCT reached that same resolver
+ * as "no engine is wired", degrading silently where it should have refused
+ * loudly. The branch could not be repaired from the outside, because the fact
+ * it needed had been collapsed before it arrived.
+ *
+ * ## Why a brand, and ⛔ not message text
+ *
+ * The SYNCHRONOUS accessor in `kernel.ts` already draws exactly this line, and
+ * the comment there records what happened the last time someone read the fact
+ * off the wrong surface: reading "not found" off the async path "reported every
+ * missing service as `is async - use await` — the wrong fix, pointing at the
+ * wrong layer". A second text classifier on a resolution path is the failure
+ * mode this module removes, ⛔ not a repair of it.
+ *
+ * The sync side decides from the REGISTRY — synchronous and authoritative — and
+ * raises two different messages. The async side now carries that same
+ * distinction as a branded, `code`-bearing rejection: one fact, spelled for a
+ * caller that only ever sees the rejection.
+ *
+ * ## The test is CLOSED, and its default is LOUD
+ *
+ * Exactly one throw in `PluginLoader.getService` means "never registered", and
+ * it is the one branded here. Every other way that method can reject — a
+ * factory that threw, a missing scope id, an unset loader context, a circular
+ * service dependency — is a service that IS registered and could not be
+ * produced, and stays unbranded. So `false` is the safe answer: a consumer that
+ * absorbs only the branded rejection stays loud about everything else,
+ * including rejections added to that method later.
+ *
+ * ## Two deliberate omissions
+ *
+ * - **No `status`.** An ADR-0112 envelope pairs `code` with a `status`, but
+ *   the whole point of this discriminator is that the CONSUMER decides what an
+ *   unwired service means — absorb and degrade (the supported no-data-plane
+ *   kernel) or refuse. Carrying an HTTP status here would presuppose that
+ *   decision at the layer that must not make it.
+ * - **No `name` override.** The rejection stays `name: 'Error'` with a
+ *   byte-identical message, so `String(err)`, logs and existing assertions
+ *   render exactly as before. The only observable change is two added
+ *   own-properties.
+ *
+ * Brand shape follows `AuthzStoreUnavailableError` (2026-08-30): a string-keyed
+ * own property rather than `instanceof`, so the predicate still answers
+ * correctly when two copies of `@objectstack/core` are installed (a duplicated
+ * module makes `instanceof` say "no" to an error it built itself).
+ *
+ * ⚠️ The brand does NOT survive `structuredClone`, and no claim here depends on
+ * it doing so — measured on Node 22: cloning an `Error` keeps `name`, `message`,
+ * `stack` and `cause` and DROPS every other own property, brand and `code`
+ * alike. This discriminator is for an in-process rejection travelling from
+ * `PluginLoader.getService` to a seam that catches it, which is the only path
+ * it is used on.

+/**
+ * [#13279] The LOUD failure an unreachable permission store raises.
+ *
+ * ## The defect this exists to end
+ *
+ * `resolveAuthzContext`'s per-read helper `tryFind` used to answer a THROWN
+ * read the same way it answers an EMPTY one: `[]`. So a permission-store
+ * outage resolved as a well-formed context for an AUTHENTICATED principal
+ * holding ZERO capabilities, and the package-management door answered
+ * `403 FORBIDDEN` — "Reading packages requires the `studio.access` or
+ * `setup.access` capability." That answer was measured BYTE-IDENTICAL
+ * (`JSON.stringify` equal, against a positive control that separates two
+ * answers which differ) to the answer a caller who genuinely holds nothing
+ * gets. An administrator was told they lack a capability, during an outage of
+ * the store that holds the capability.
+ *
+ * The resolver was asserting a fact it did not have. "No rows came back"
+ * and "the read failed" are different facts, and only one of them licenses
+ * the sentence "this user holds nothing".
+ *
+ * ## …and "the read failed" turned out to be TWO facts (ruled 2026-08-30, A)
+ *
+ * A read ALSO throws when the table was never PROVISIONED — a real engine,
+ * wired and reachable, whose `sys_*` tables were never created. There "this
+ * user holds nothing" is TRUE, not invented, so failing loud would refuse
+ * service to a correctly-configured deployment. The first implementation of
+ * this card did exactly that and four CI suites measured it.
+ *
+ * So `tryFind` raises this error only for a read failure that is NOT
+ * positively identified as an unprovisioned table, asking the one relocated
+ * `isMissingTableError` predicate (`@objectstack/types`) rather than a second
+ * copy. The boundary, the ruling's verbatim text and the false-positive risk
+ * signed off with it are written beside that call in `resolve-authz-context.ts`;
+ * both directions are pinned in `authz-store-unavailable.test.ts` §4.
+ *
+ * ## Maintainer ruling, 2026-08-30, verbatim 「第一批其余同意」
+ *
+ * > `tryFind` 区分「无行」与「读失败」,读失败 fail-loud —— 权限库不可达时
+ * > 不再解析为「已认证零能力」,而是响亮拒绝(与真实能力拒绝的 403 可区分),
+ * > 让宕机不再伪装成一次逐字节相同的能力否决。
+ *
+ * The ruling fixes the DIRECTION and leaves the spelling to the implementation.
+ *
+ * ## Why a THROW, and not a field on the envelope
+ *
+ * The alternative was a discriminator field on `ResolvedAuthzContext` — the
+ * shape `authRefusal` had (#8287). That was rejected on a MEASUREMENT, not a
+ * preference: from #8287 until #14273 removed it, `authRefusal` had **zero**
+ * consumers anywhere in the repo outside this module and test assertions — a
+ * reading #14273 acted on by deleting the field. Every transport reads `userId`
+ * and `systemPermissions`; a new sibling field would have to be taught to eight
+ * separate call sites before it made a single door louder, and would answer
+ * the old quiet 403 at every site that was missed.
+ *
+ * A field is quiet by default and must be deliberately made loud. A throw is
+ * loud by default and must be deliberately silenced. On a security surface
+ * whose whole defect is a silence, the default is the entire decision.
+ *
+ * It is also the idiom this platform already uses for unresolvable authority:
+ * `packages/mcp`'s stdio entry throws and refuses to start rather than run with
+ * an authority it could not resolve.
+ *
+ * ## Why `SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE` / 503, and why that is not a new wire shape
+ *
+ * `SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE` is an EXISTING member of the closed ADR-0112 wire
+ * vocabulary (`StandardErrorCode`, `packages/spec/src/api/errors.zod.ts`), and
+ * `HttpStatusErrorCodeMap` already maps it to 503 — "service exists but is
+ * temporarily down". Nothing is added to the vocabulary and no envelope gains
+ * or loses a key: a door that already renders `{ code, message }` renders this
+ * one the same way. What changes is WHICH declared code an outage selects —
+ * from the caller's `FORBIDDEN` to the operator's `SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE`.
+ *
+ * That is the ruling's own test, stated on the wire: 503 is not 403, so an
+ * outage is no longer answerable as a capability denial.
+ *
+ * ## Recognise by BRAND, never by `instanceof`
+ *
+ * {@link isAuthzStoreUnavailableError} tests a own-property brand rather than
+ * `instanceof`. This error crosses package boundaries (`@objectstack/core` →
+ * rest / runtime / mcp / services / plugins) and a monorepo resolves the same
+ * module through more than one path (`src` under vitest aliases, `dist` under
+ * the published `exports`). Two copies of this class make `instanceof` answer
+ * FALSE for a genuine instance — which, here, silently restores the exact
+ * quiet 403 this module exists to remove. The brand survives duplication.

+ *
+ * ⚠️ The brand does NOT survive `structuredClone`, and no claim here depends
+ * on it doing so — the same measured behaviour `service-not-registered.ts`

+ * ADR-0112 `code`, `status` and `object` alike (and a subclass's own `name`
+ * returns as `'Error'`). The plain-object control is the half that proves the
+ * loss is specific to `Error`, not general to `structuredClone`.
+ *
+ * ⛔ So never branch on this brand across a worker or `postMessage` boundary:

+ * It is a PROJECTION of {@link resolveUserAuthzGrants}, never a second

+ * ── The `authz.invalidated` cluster channel (#11968, #11633 §3) ─────────────
+ *
+ * The cross-node half of the authorization invalidation substrate: one channel
+ * name, one payload shape, and the contract statement that governs how both may
+ * be read. It carries no cache and no consumer — leg B (#11967) is the first.
+ *
+ * ## ⭐ THE TTL IS THE CORRECTNESS CONTRACT. THIS CHANNEL IS NOT.
+ *
+ * A message on this channel is a **hint**, and **a missed message is EXPECTED**.
+ * That is not a caveat about an unreliable network; it is the shipped
+ * guarantee, measured rather than assumed:
+ *
+ *   - `content/docs/kernel/cluster.mdx` §4.2, on `at-least-once`:
+ *     *"**No shipped driver provides this yet.** The `redis` driver publishes
+ *     over plain Redis pub/sub, which is *at-most-once* — fire-and-forget, no
+ *     persistence, no replay for a node that was down at publish time."*
+ *   - `@objectstack/service-cluster-redis`'s own `publish` docblock:
+ *     *"there is no delivery guarantee to subscribers and no replay for a node
+ *     that was down or slow at publish time. This is acceptable **only** for
+ *     events that are pure cache-invalidation hints, never the source of
+ *     truth."*
+ *   - The `memory` driver does not cross a process boundary at all
+ *     (`service-cluster/src/memory/pubsub.ts`, and the split-brain guard's
+ *     `IN_PROCESS_DRIVERS`).
+ *
+ * So a dropped message on an at-most-once transport is a staleness window with
+ * **no upper bound**, and no amount of care at the publish site changes that.
+ * What bounds it is the **TTL** every cached authorization answer must carry:
+ * a peer that never hears the message still converges when its entry expires.
+ *
+ * ⇒ **A consumer that would be incorrect if a message were lost is misusing
+ * this channel.** The channel exists for one thing: moving the *typical*
+ * convergence from "one TTL" down to "one network hop". It never moves the
+ * worst case, and it is never the mechanism that makes a cached authorization
+ * answer safe.
+ *
+ * ⚠️ For the same reason this channel is **best-effort at the publish site
+ * too**: a publish failure is logged and swallowed, never propagated into the
+ * write that triggered it. A grant revocation must not fail because a cache
+ * hint could not be delivered — the TTL already covers exactly that case.
+ *
+ * `IPubSub`'s own interface docblock (`@objectstack/spec/contracts`) states the
+ * same thing from the contract side — delivery is whatever the configured
+ * driver declares, no shipped driver exceeds at-most-once, and handlers must be
+ * idempotent **and** tolerate loss. That docblock, `cluster.mdx` §4.2 and the
+ * redis driver agree; there is no disagreement here for a later reader to go
+ * looking for.
+ *
+ * ## Why a new channel on the existing bus, and not a new transport
+ *
+ * `MetadataClusterBridgePlugin` already shows the whole shape — a channel on
+ * `IPubSub`, bridged by a plugin that late-binds at `kernel:ready` and does
+ * nothing when the services it needs are absent. Reusing it adds no dependency
+ * and no new failure mode. The one thing metadata's channel does NOT have to
+ * carry is what makes this one different: a missed `metadata.changed` costs a
+ * stale schema until reload and loses no data, while a missed
+ * `authz.invalidated` would cost a permission honoured past its revocation —
+ * which is why the bound lives in the TTL and why the absence of this bridge is
+ * stated out loud at boot ({@link ../security/authz-cache-posture.js}).
+ */

+ * a grants cache is enabled and there is **no** cross-node invalidation bus, the
+ * deployment is told so, **out loud**, at boot.
+ *
+ * ## Why a statement and not a refusal
+ *
+ * A per-process cache bounded only by its TTL is a legitimate configuration —
+ * #11633 §3 rules the TTL, not the bus, as the correctness contract, so a
+ * single-node deployment (or one that simply accepts the window) is correct
+ * with no bus at all. What is NOT acceptable is arriving there **without

+ * absence at `debug` and that is right for metadata — a missed
+ * `metadata.changed` costs a stale schema until reload and loses no data. Here
+ * the same silence would cost a permission honoured past its revocation.
+ *
+ * ⇒ Enabled cache + no bus is a `warn`, every boot, naming the window it just
+ * accepted. Not a refusal — a statement.
+ *
+ * ## The three postures, and the reason `disabled` is silent
+ *
+ *   - `disabled`      — no cache is enabled. **Silent.** There is no window to
+ *                       state, and a line every boot on the shipped default
+ *                       (TTL `0`, Fork 4) would train operators to ignore it —
+ *                       which is how the loud line stops being loud.
+ *   - `ttl-only`      — cache enabled, no cross-node bus. **LOUD (`warn`).**
+ *   - `bus-narrowed`  — cache enabled, bus bridged. `info`, so the bridge's
+ *                       presence is on the record next to its absence.

+/**
+ * [ADR-0126 §4] THE activation-ledger row contract — one implementation,
+ * parameterized by `metadata_type`.
+ *
+ * ## Why this file exists (#12350)
+ *
+ * ADR-0126 §4 declares ONE activation ledger for the whole disable+clone
+ * family. It briefly had two implementations of that one row contract:
+ *
+ * | Implementation                    | Package                            | Landed |
+ * | :-------------------------------- | :--------------------------------- | :----- |
+ * | `ObjectStoreFlowActivationStore`  | `@objectstack/service-automation`  | #12296 |
+ * | `ObjectStoreActionActivationStore`| `@objectstack/objectql`            | #12348 |
+ *
+ * They agreed on every load-bearing detail because the second was written from
+ * the first — and nothing structurally held them together. ADR-0126 §8
+ * pre-charts `tool`, `skill` and `position` as later consumers, and a third
+ * and fourth copy is where the row semantics start drifting: the org-row skip
+ * and the `0`-is-false read are exactly the kind of detail a copy loses
+ * quietly, in a direction (an artifact silently re-arming) nothing else
+ * measures.
+ *
+ * ## Why the code lives HERE and the object does not
+ *
+ * Neither consumer could import the other: `@objectstack/service-automation`
+ * does not depend on `@objectstack/objectql` (devDependency only), and the
+ * engine must not depend on a service — the dependency arrow points the other
+ * way. `@objectstack/core` is the package BOTH already depend on, so this is
+ * the one home that needs no new edge. ⛔ NOT `@objectstack/platform-objects`,
+ * which declares the OBJECT: `objectql` does not depend on it and adding that
+ * edge would invert the tiering, since platform-objects is a catalog the
+ * engine serves. That is a MODULE-IMPORT question, and it is independent of
+ * where the object's REGISTRATION lives (a composition question, ruled
+ * separately on #12359 — `PlatformObjectsPlugin`).
+ *
+ * The table is reached by NAME, never by importing the declaration, exactly as
+ * the engine already reaches `sys_metadata` / `sys_secret`.
+ *
+ * ## The row shape — ⛔ this module writes COLUMNS, never schema
+ *
+ * `metadata_type` · `name` · `package_id` · `active`, exactly the four
+ * ADR-0126 §4 declares. Three properties are load-bearing and each is pinned on
+ * both consumers' sides (`flow-activation-ledger.test.ts`,
+ * `action-activation.test.ts` — unchanged by the consolidation, which is what
+ * makes them the proof it lost nothing):
+ *
+ *   - **The ledger is DEPLOYMENT-level, and carries no tenant column at all.**
+ *     A row says "this environment switched this managed item off" — a fact no
+ *     organization owns. The table briefly declared a nullable tenant column
+ *     marked RESERVED and never written, and this module correspondingly
+ *     filtered reads to the NULL ones and skipped any row carrying an
+ *     organization. Both are gone: a reserved nullable tenant
+ *     column is the shape the total-organization-ownership record proposed in
+ *     PR #14976 rules out, so the column was dropped before it ever shipped
+ *     (17.2.0 predates the table). There is no filter here any more because
+ *     there is no column to filter on — `list()` is simply every activation
+ *     row of this type. Should a per-organization dimension ever be wanted, it
+ *     returns as a separate org-owned object, never as a column here.
+ *   - **Absence of a row means ACTIVE.** Nothing here ever writes a row to say
+ *     "active by default", and `list()` returning nothing is the normal
+ *     stock-boot state, not an error. Re-enabling UPDATES the row to
+ *     `active: true` rather than deleting it, so the ledger records the
+ *     administrator's CHOICE instead of erasing it (§6 wall 3) — which is why
+ *     {@link MetadataActivationStoreEngine} deliberately has no `delete`.
+ *   - **A driver `0` reads as false.** SQLite/libsql round-trip booleans as
+ *     0/1; a `!== false` test alone would read a disabled artifact as armed.
+ *
+ * ## The discriminator is never optional
+ *
+ * The ledger is generic and shared — flow rows and action rows live in the
+ * same table today, and §8 charts more. Every read and write below is scoped
+ * by `metadata_type`, so no consumer can touch a neighbour's state through a
+ * table all of them are told to treat as generic. It is a constructor
+ * argument, not a per-call one, so a caller cannot forget it at a single site.

+ * The default check when no `checkMethod` resolves is
+ * `{ name: 'plugin-loaded', status: 'passed' }`, which a destroyed plugin
+ * passes indefinitely, so the TERMINAL report on a destroyed, never
+ * re-initialised plugin was `healthy` — and #11955 made that MORE convincing
+ * rather than less, because reaching `healthy` now costs `successThreshold`
+ * consecutive passing rounds.
+ *
+ * The restart could not be repaired in place. `Plugin.init(ctx)` needs a
+ * `PluginContext`, and the only two `plugin.init(...)` call sites in the tree
+ * are the kernel's own boot loops, over the full plugin list, with a context
+ * that is `private` on `ObjectKernel` and `protected` on `KernelBase`. No host
+ * can obtain one, so there was nothing for a re-init hook to call. ADR-0049
+ * enforce-or-remove, with no roadmap to point EXPERIMENTAL at, therefore
+ * removed the declaration: `autoRestart`, `maxRestartAttempts` and
+ * `restartBackoff` are tombstoned in `@objectstack/spec` 18, and this class
+ * refuses a config that still carries one instead of accepting it and doing
+ * something else.
+ *
+ * What a failing plugin gets now is the truth: `degraded`, `unhealthy` or
