Use private header files rather than shared passwords or proxy secrets in process arguments. Separate intentional AI settings writes from diagnostics, distinguish proxy denials from authentication/transport failures, and preserve the real proxy trust boundary and 5.x limitation. Exercise copied commands, private-file preparation and rendered help.
Contract-Neutral: Documentation and executable help controls only; no authentication, authorization, AI autonomy or runtime contract change.
