+//! consumers must Inspect the current Object and then its Interface again, use Ticket Entries,
+//! group repository/page/integration records, and invoke `readiness`. Tool mode is unchanged.
+//!
+//! Examples below show Invoke's JSON binding, not Tool JSON. Substitute the actual allocated
+//! Ticket collection path discovered from the current registry (it need not be `/tickets`).

+//! ```text
+//! collection.open({ticket: "/tickets/T-797",
+//!   repository: {key: "main", source: "work/T-797", target: "develop"}})
+//! item.read({page: {after: {$case: "value", value: 7},

+//! item.readiness({})
+//! item.review({decision: "request_changes", findings: [
+//!   {severity: "major", path: {$case: "value", value: "src/main.rs"},

+//!
+//! Optional fields may be omitted; only Nullable shapes accept explicit null, represented as
+//! `{$case: "null"}` or `{$case: "value", value: T}` because WIP has no nullable primitive.
+//! Plain JSON null is not accepted. Omitted summary/body/findings use domain defaults. Backend
+//! remains authoritative for candidate freshness, exact approval, target observations, and business
+//! eligibility. Page bounds and finding line integer ranges are checked before authorization and
+//! dispatch, separately from native type validation. Complete records integration; it never applies

+//! Native Ticket actions are defined by their subjects and preconditions, not Tool schemas.
+//!
+//! Collection/item separation is retained: discovery and creation have no existing subject;
+//! judgments, authoring, delegation and relationships do. Assignment/post identifiers are
+//! observations within a Ticket, not independently authorized child Objects. Keeping them in
+//! records avoids implying that observing a child grants independent execution authority.
+//! Read and mutation actions remain separate because their permissions and retry safety differ.
+//!
+//! The contract tree generates both the public declaration and closed input conversion. The
+//! converted command is private transport to shared domain execution, never a second public API.
+//! Backend validation owns string bounds, conditional business requirements, exact observations,
+//! authorization and replay. Native type rejection precedes that boundary. Results deliberately
+//! retain their bounded domain JSON: typed result traversal belongs to the separate result seam.
+//!
+//! For example, Inspect the collection and its Interface, then invoke `query` with
+//! `{"filter":{"states":["open"]},"page":{"limit":10}}`. Inspect a returned item path and
+//! its Interface before `read` with `{"page":{"limit":5}}`, or `comment` with
+//! `{"body":"Confirmed requirement"}`. A relation target is an Entry, not a Tool Ticket ID.
+//! v2 replaces v1 native arguments; refresh Object/Interface observations, do not replay mutations.
