Discovery wraps every probe in `docker exec <container> sh -c '...'`.
The agentexec command policy lists `^docker\s+exec\s` as RequireApproval
(a sound default for user-driven docker exec) and Discovery has no path
to mint or supply an ApprovalID. Result: every probe was rejected, the
scanner returned empty CommandOutputs, and the AI fell back to
"Unknown Infrastructure Resource" at confidence 0. The Discovery sub-tab
rendered empty after a "successful" run.
Add a Trusted bool to ExecuteCommandPayload on both the server-facing
agentexec type and the agent's wire struct. When set, the approval gate
is skipped on both ends and the server does not attempt to auto-mint an
approval grant (which would fail with "approval id is required").
PolicyBlock still applies; this is not a way to run arbitrary commands.
Only the discoveryCommandAdapter sets Trusted=true. The flag is never
populated from a deserialised HTTP body or any user-driven path. Patrol
fixes, Assistant remediation, and AI tool calls continue to flow through
the governed approval-record path with a real ApprovalID.
Contracts: amend agent-lifecycle Completion Obligations and Current
State to document the lone exception to the on-agent approval rail, and
amend ai-runtime to fence the Trusted flag to the discovery adapter
only.
