/**
 * arguments/ask — the ONE typed ask per batch for the values `ask` rules need:
 * its fields, its declaration, the binding of the person's answer, the re-ask.
 *
 * Pattern: Walker, pure. Every function here is a function of what it is
 *          handed — the batch's calls, the rules of the implementation that
 *          will run (`ToolOf`), the ask's own state — and nothing reads a
 *          clock, a model or scope. The stage glue (`stages/argumentAsk.ts`)
 *          reads and writes scope and raises the pause.
 * Role:    core/ layer leaf of the inputs layer (honesty layer 2). Imports
 *          nothing from `findings/` (the folder's one-way law).
 * Emits:   N/A.
 *
 * ## One ask for the whole batch, before anything in it runs
 *
 * The layer's Resolve stage names, per call, the `ask` arguments it left out
 * (`ArgumentResolution.ask`). They become ONE typed ask (`tools/inputRequest.ts`,
 * the door `requestInput` uses): one field per distinct (tool, argument), bound
 * to every call of the batch that needs it. Two PERIOD arguments of different
 * tools share one field when their spellings convert (`lookback` ↔
 * `signed-lookback`) and their choices are the same periods — asking twice for
 * one period would ask the person what they already answered. An `iso-range`
 * never merges.
 *
 * - **Field ids are positional** (`f1`, `f2`, …) per declaration — never a
 *   joined `tool.argument` string, which two pairs could spell alike (the
 *   injective-key law). The (tool, argument, calls) behind each id rides the
 *   declaration's `context` under the library's reserved key.
 * - **A value the model READ into the person's words** (declared sources: the
 *   quote was found in the person's messages, the value is not in it) is asked
 *   too, and its field's `context` entry carries those words as `quoted` —
 *   the person's own words, never the model's value, and never while a tool
 *   in reach can hide arguments (`resolve.ts` · `quotesMayShow`).
 * - **A fixed library question.** Each author's question is its field's
 *   `description`; joined questions could break the 4096-character bound at
 *   pause time although each passed it at definition.
 * - **Nothing the model proposed rides the ask** — no `supplied`, no value, no
 *   choice the model wrote.
 * - **More than 32 fields** (the typed ask's limit) go in rounds of 32.
 *
 * ## The answer, re-checked, and a bounded re-ask
 *
 * The typed ask checks type and enum only, so an integer asked as a number can
 * come back `2.5`, and a string can break its `pattern`. Each answer is judged
 * against the PROPERTY's own schema of every argument it binds to, read off the
 * implementation that will run, through the one validator's honest subset
 * (`toolArgsValidation.ts` · `validatePropertyValue`: type, integer, enum,
 * `pattern`, `minLength`, `maxLength` — numeric `minimum` / `maximum` are NOT
 * judged, there or anywhere). One that fails is not bound: its rows say
 * `asked: 'invalid-answer'` and the field is asked again with a second fixed
 * question — at most `MAX_ASK_ROUNDS` times per field; after that, the calls
 * that needed it are refused.
