What changed
chains escalation-pathas a narrow v1 chain family focused on current-foothold direct controlprivescinto clearer current-foothold triage withstarting_foothold, proof/missing-proof wording, and next-review guidancerole-trustsso future trust-backed escalation rows can carry exact mechanism data without bloating the current tableWhy it changed
AzureFox needed a truthful escalation chain family that behaves more like
deployment-pathand less like a restatement of privileged posture. This slice ships the defended direct-control row now, while laying the backend groundwork for later trust-expansion rows that only graduate when the exact transform is explicit.User and developer impact
azurefox chains escalation-pathand get a defended current-foothold escalation story instead of stitching it together manually fromprivescandpermissionsprivescnow reads more clearly as triage rooted in the current footholdrole-trustsJSON now carries hidden transform fields such as control primitive, controlled object, escalation mechanism, usable identity result, and defender cut point for future chain useescalation-pathunless the transform is explicit and target-side control is confirmedRoot cause
The repo had stronger chaining expectations after
deployment-path, but the identity/escalation surfaces were still too relationship-first. That made it hard to answer the real chain question: what exact transform moves the foothold into stronger control, and what edge would a defender cut to stop it?Validation
