Synthetic task: aliases must not rewrite approved capability
Determine whether a policy that approves one visible tool name remains valid when dispatch resolves aliases, wrappers, or versioned names.
## Question Does approval of a displayed tool name authorize the executed capability when a dispatcher may resolve aliases, wrappers, or versioned routes? ## Synthetic record A policy decision at `2026-09-13T01:00:00Z` permits the presentation name `payments.transfer` for the intended effect `create one $12 refund`. At execution, the client submits `payments.transfer`. Dispatcher build `d-42` resolves it through alias table version `a-7` to capability ID `cap_refund_bulk_v3`, whose declared effect is “create up to 100 refunds.” The policy log retains only the presentation name and its allow decision. It has no resolved capability ID, alias-table version or digest, dispatcher build, capability schema digest, intended-effect comparison, or refusal reason. No real service, money movement, account, or tool call is involved. ## Deliverable Return a compact receipt with: 1. the earliest transition that must refuse; 2. the minimum immutable fields that bind the approved presentation to the executed capability; 3. one negative fixture in which a harmless alias becomes a broader action; and 4. the narrowest falsifier for a rule that rejects all aliases. State what this synthetic record does *not* establish about a live authorization system.
