Oliver Kieselbach 729ee56bde security: assume-breach alarm for the Global-Admin-only surface (x29 phase 0)
The 2026-09-04 audit found no bypass of the GA boundary, but a failed attempt left
only a Warning trace without identity, and a non-GA tools/call for a GA-only MCP tool
never reached the backend at all. This makes the boundary observable without adding
a second alarm writer (D-185):

Backend
- PrivilegedRouteDenied (Security): raised from the policy middleware's deny path for
  every 403 by an authenticated caller on a GlobalAdminOnly route. Critical for a
  caller without a platform role, Warning for a Global Reader. Details carry upn, oid,
  tid, client source, MCP tool name, correlation id, reason and policy. Throttled one
  hour per caller+path per instance (PrivilegedDenialReporter, IPrivilegedDenialReporter
  seam). PolicyResult now surfaces the denied tier; the DENIED log line gains oid, tid,
  clientSource and mcpTool.
- GET global/raw/access-probe: no-op GlobalAdminOnly route whose denial IS the signal
  (AccessProbeResponse DTO, catalog entry, parity test).
- Defense in depth: AppInsightsQueryFunction and both TableQueryFunction triggers re-check
  IsGlobalAdmin in the body (RawGlobalAdminGate); an empty RequestContext fails closed.
- Dual-register: OpsEventTypes.All, OpsAlertRulesSection.tsx, regenerated manifests.

MCP
- ga-tool-probe.ts: before dispatch, a caller without the GlobalAdmin role naming a
  strictGa tool leaves an unconditional [mcp-security] line (tool, upn, scope) and fires
  the access probe with X-MCP-Tool-Name; the SDK answer stays "Tool not found".
- GA_STRICT_TOOL_NAMES exported and pinned equal to the registered GA-minus-Reader set.
- debug-session prompt names query_backend_logs/query_table only for strictGa (Readers
  were told to call tools they cannot see); tool_call_rejected lines carry scope + upn;
  config-tool comment corrected against the actual catalog tiers.

Tests: reporter (severity, details, throttle, fail-soft), middleware policy surfacing and
IsPrivilegedDenial/BuildPrivilegedDenial, Program.cs middleware order source scan, raw
gate 403, probe catalog + JWT pins, wire parity; MCP probe unit tests, Global Reader over
HTTP on both eras, runtime refusal fires the probe, prompt gate.
