cli: add external target descriptor verify #705

Closed

Description

@flyingrobots

Summary

Add the first executable external-target protocol surface: wesley target verify <descriptor>. The command validates a target descriptor without running untrusted target code.

Parent context: #680.

Acceptance Criteria

  • wesley target verify <descriptor> exists and is listed in CLI help.
  • The command validates wesley.target-descriptor/v1 descriptors without executing command.program.
  • JSON output reports valid, descriptor identity, and deterministic diagnostics.
  • Invalid descriptors fail closed for unsafe command paths, missing required capabilities, denied network or ambient filesystem capability requests, bad protocol versions, and unsafe output paths.
  • CLI tests prove valid descriptor acceptance and non-execution of a descriptor command.
  • Docs reference target verify as shipped while keeping target run unshipped.

Non-Goals

  • No target run command.
  • No process execution, sandboxing, artifact copy-out, or SDK template in this slice.
  • No product/domain examples.
