Slice: Define Jim-to-Echo CausalAnchor API boundary #219

Description

@flyingrobots

Goal

Define a narrow Jim-facing capability for requesting Echo-owned causal-anchor admission without making Echo know about ropes or copying Echo protocol semantics into Jim.

Acceptance criteria

  • Jim validates checkpoint identity, worldline, rope head, checkpoint reason, and optional materialization-root roles before invoking the capability.
  • The capability returns opaque Echo anchor, fact, and receipt identities.
  • Jim does not derive Echo basis frontiers, identity algorithms, digest domains, receipts, WAL evidence, support policy, or retention policy.
  • Operations that require anchor admission require explicit capability injection and fail closed when unavailable.
  • The handwritten port is documented as a transitional single-operation seam to be replaced by a generated Edict client.
