docs: sept affirmations sur NextGraph requalifiées à la source

Lot F de la revue adverse. Chaque affirmation relue dans `nextgraph-rs` par symbole avant
d'être réécrite ; aucune ne s'est révélée exacte.

- `AddLink` / `RemoveLink` / `RepoLinkV0` étaient présentés comme **implémentés**. Leurs
  arms de vérificateur sont des `Ok(())`, là où celui d'`AddRepo` fait un vrai travail, et
  rien ne les construit. Le tableau dit désormais « déclaré, stubbé », et la conclusion qui
  en déduisait « le registre existe, seule la livraison manque » est corrigée : **les deux
  bouts** sont déclarés-et-stubbés.
- La table `inboxes` était dite « reconstruite vide à chaque session » — elle est
  repeuplée au chargement, et la clé privée d'inbox est persistée par repo. L'argument de
  sécurité qui s'appuyait dessus repose maintenant sur le bon motif : la table est **par
  vérificateur**, pas éphémère.
- La citation de « `doc_create` laisse `inbox: None` » pointait un constructeur réservé aux
  tests ; re-ciblée sur le chemin de production.
- `ExtObjectGet` était dit « le seul » primitif accessible à un non-membre et exigeant les
  clés : il y en a trois, et sa structure n'a aucun champ de clé.
- L'en-tête de `public-store.ts` était marqué **VERIFIED** alors qu'il repose sur un
  commentaire de doc, et la condition qu'il citait (« si les brokers pairs l'autorisent »)
  disparaissait de la conclusion. Requalifié en **pari**, condition rétablie.
- Deux sur-restrictions corrigées (ce qu'écrit le traitement d'un `ContactDetails`, et le
  prétendu « miroir 1:1 » de `NuriV0`, qui a dix champs).

**Sur la grammaire du ReadCap, une correction de MA correction.** J'avais écrit que la
forme `{target}:r:{cap}` était notre invention. Faux : le segment `r:` et son encodage sont
ceux d'amont, et l'auteur de NextGraph l'a énoncé. Ce qui est établi est plus étroit —
aucun parseur amont n'accepte aujourd'hui un NURI de repo qui le porte, et le segment est
produit comme valeur de champ. J'avais conclu d'une implémentation absente à ce que la
cible ferait, ce que la doctrine du projet interdit nommément. Seule « P1b remplace la
valeur, pas la forme » est corrigée, requalifiée en **pari**.

**Et la surface ne publie plus de type que personne n'utilise.** `export * from
"./model/types"` publiait huit types en bloc ; c'est une liste nommée de six. `ReadCap`
sort — aucune signature publiée ne le prend ni ne le rend, seules deux fonctions privées
de `inbox.ts` s'en servent — et `InboxScope` aussi. Un type n'est publié que si une
signature publiée l'utilise.

197 tests, 0 échec ; les trois typechecks propres ; `lint` sans erreur.

## 5. Recommendation for the polyfill
The surface already exists: `linkTo(doc: NuriLike): ReadCap` (`packages/sdk/src/surface/placement.ts:65-77`) for the traveling value, `inbox.share(doc, toUser)` (`packages/sdk/src/surface/inbox.ts:285`) for directed delivery. **Keep `linkTo` — the act is the right one** — with four adjustments:
**SUPERSEDED on its first point, 2026-08-06 — `linkTo` was REMOVED, and the removal stands.** This section used to open: *"The surface already exists: `linkTo(doc: NuriLike): ReadCap` … `inbox.share(doc, toUser)` for directed delivery. **Keep `linkTo` — the act is the right one**"*. What that recommendation missed is the single thing § 0 of `docs/readcap-and-nuri-model.md` exists to hold: a call that returns a document's **key** where a caller asked for its **reference** converts *"whoever has the reference AND the key reads"* into *"whoever has the reference reads"* — for that document and for every document it mentions — so confidentiality can no longer be composed inside anything one circulates. The *act* (circulate a value that opens a document) may still be right; making it the answer to "give me the link to my document" was not. The reasoning is recorded where the function was, in the `No linkTo here` block of `packages/sdk/src/surface/placement.ts`.
1. **Label it LEVEL-1 SHAPE in `docs/api-contract.md`.** What supports it: the `NgLink` family and its stated sharing flow, the `PermaShare` permission, the exercised object-URL and profile-QR precedents, and the PO doctrine that circulation is the only distribution. The model's own stated flows are unusable without *some* produce-a-link affordance, which is as much confidence as an unbuilt feature allows. What cannot be promised: the SDK's name for it, sync vs async (upstream link-building needs overlay + peers from the session, so async is plausible — same adapter-sized delta class as `subscribeDoc`'s sync unsubscribe), and whether the value is a NURI string or a structured link. Therefore: **the returned value is opaque**; a consumer that stores it, transmits it, and hands it back unmodified learns nothing to unlearn; a consumer that parses it does.
2. **Fix the comment-vs-code mismatch in `linkTo`.** The docstring claims *"A protected document's key never comes out this way — it goes through `share`"*; the code returns any held cap, with no scope check. The **code** is the model-true side: `RepoLinkV0`-with-key IS the protected-document link, and sharing it out-of-band is the documented normal case (`:5059`). Align the comment: a protected link carries the key and is legitimate to circulate — with the §4 durability caveat, not a prohibition.
3. **The recipient verb is missing.** Nothing exported ingests an out-of-band link: `learn` is reached only by inbox processing and the connection drain (`packages/sdk/src/surface/inbox.ts:410`, `packages/sdk/src/emulated-verifier/connect.ts:68`), and `getCaps()` is documented machinery (api-contract §15). The model names the recipient act precisely — open the link: load the repo from its read cap, file `AddLink` durably on the User branch, subscribe (`:5059`; `engine/repo/src/types.rs:1934-1950`; `verifier.rs:2237`). Suggested surface, same epistemic label as `linkTo`: `openLink(link: string): Promise<Nuri>` — files the cap in the emulated registers and returns the cap-less target for use in reads. Without it, path 2 has a producer and no consumer, and the multi-actor test where Bob *obtains* the document through calls (never through a shared variable) cannot be written — the exact failure mode `rules/engineering/multi-actor-tests-obtain-not-receive.md` records.
What an application does instead, today: it names a document with the bare reference it already holds — every published call returns one — and grants access with `inbox.share(doc, toUser)` (`packages/sdk/src/surface/inbox.ts`). The four points below are kept and re-read against that: 1 and 4 stand as written for **any** future link-producing surface; 2 is void with the function; 3 is unchanged and still open.
1. **Label any such call LEVEL-1 SHAPE in `docs/api-contract.md`.** What supports it: the `NgLink` family and its stated sharing flow, the `PermaShare` permission, the exercised object-URL and profile-QR precedents, and the PO doctrine that circulation is the only distribution. The model's own stated flows are unusable without *some* produce-a-link affordance, which is as much confidence as an unbuilt feature allows. What cannot be promised: the SDK's name for it, sync vs async (upstream link-building needs overlay + peers from the session, so async is plausible — same adapter-sized delta class as `subscribeDoc`'s sync unsubscribe), and whether the value is a NURI string or a structured link. Therefore: **the returned value is opaque**; a consumer that stores it, transmits it, and hands it back unmodified learns nothing to unlearn; a consumer that parses it does.
2. ~~**Fix the comment-vs-code mismatch in `linkTo`.**~~ **VOID — the function is gone.** The observation it rested on survives and is worth keeping: `RepoLinkV0`-with-key IS the protected-document link, and circulating it out-of-band is the documented normal case (`:5059`), so a protected link carrying its key is not in itself a violation — with the § 4 durability caveat. What made `linkTo` wrong was not that the value carried a key; it was that a caller got one **by asking for a reference**. Handing over a key must be its own act, which is what `inbox.share` is.
3. **The recipient verb is missing.** Nothing exported ingests an out-of-band link: `learn` is reached only by inbox processing and the connection drain (`packages/sdk/src/surface/inbox.ts:410`, `packages/sdk/src/emulated-verifier/connect.ts:68`), and `getCaps()` is documented machinery (api-contract §15). The model names the recipient act precisely — open the link: load the repo from its read cap, file `AddLink` durably on the User branch, subscribe (`:5059`; `engine/repo/src/types.rs:1934-1950`; `verifier.rs:2237`). Suggested surface, same epistemic label as point 1: `openLink(link: string): Promise<Nuri>` — files the cap in the emulated registers and returns the cap-less target for use in reads. Without it, path 2 has a producer and no consumer, and the multi-actor test where Bob *obtains* the document through calls (never through a shared variable) cannot be written — the exact failure mode `rules/engineering/multi-actor-tests-obtain-not-receive.md` records.
4. **Do not add**: link options (expiry, audience, revoke-this-link), per-reader introspection for public documents, or any API that parses or inspects a link's insides — nothing upstream supports any of them, and each teaches a lever the model does not have.
