jschoubben	ab1eb0cb47	Review 1 of S1: the served-text row finds the list tool by its full name; list's text is the contract's word for word ... Builds: design 39 parts D3 (§15), bullets 2 and 4.	2026-11-12 15:52:34 +01:00
jschoubben	2a9827ce18	Review 1 of S1: list's served text ends with the account sentence only; a secret-shaped link target in a secret place is withheld ... Issue 1409. readTools no longer appends the refusal sentence to list. A row in TestSecretPlacesAreRefusedByNameBeforeAnyRead holds a link's target in a secret place to the content rule. S2's match on sudo's English message is left as it is: the root path sets no locale, and sudo's environment handling decides whether LC_ALL reaches stat.

jschoubben	fdd33e1234	S2 stat-says-missing: mesh-files stat says a path root finds missing does not exist ... Issue 1409. A stat through root of a path that is not there answered that the file modes refuse it; it says it does not exist, so design 39 parts §15's "gone" can be read. Builds: design 39 parts D3 (§15), bullet 3	2026-11-12 15:44:51 +01:00
jschoubben	c41387f271	S1 list-secret-place: mesh-files lists a place a secret is kept, entries only, marked secret-place ... Issue 1409. A list of a place the mesh keeps a secret, or of a machine's credential places, at any depth, answers each entry's name, type, owner, group, mode, size and a link's target held to the content rule, never content, and says secret-place; a process's environ, mem, fd, map_files, root and cwd stay refused. Lines touched cite ADR 0394 §7. Builds: design 39 parts D3 (§15), bullets 2 and 5	2026-11-12 15:44:50 +01:00
