Align firewall boundary with weaver-spec (Frames-only ingestion)

[dgenio]

The Problem

contextweaver currently stores raw outputs via apply_firewall and ArtifactStore. This is a direct boundary conflict with weaver-spec BOUNDARIES.md, which states:

agent-kernel owns: raw tool output → firewall → Frame + Handle + access control + audit log.

contextweaver ingests only: Frame (safe view). It never receives raw tool output by default.

And Invariant I-05:

contextweaver's ingestion interface accepts Frame objects. An implementation of contextweaver that accepts raw tool output as a first-class input is not spec-compliant.

If left unresolved, this boundary violation will fracture the ecosystem — downstream adopters won't know which component is responsible for firewalling, leading to either duplication or gaps.

Decision to Implement (per spec)

Keep contextweaver's core as context + routing only. Move any "raw output firewall/artifact storage" into one of:

• (a) An optional integration module ("execution layer") — clearly separated from core context compilation, explicitly documented as non-canonical
• (b) Defer fully to agent-kernel — remove firewall/artifact storage code from contextweaver entirely and document the canonical integration path

Acceptance Criteria

• Docs updated so the canonical path is: contextweaver consumes Frame events only
• Any raw-output handling is clearly marked "optional / non-canonical" (if keeping option (a))
• apply_firewall and ArtifactStore are either:
  • Moved to an optional/ or integrations/ module with clear warnings, OR
  • Removed entirely with a migration note
• One integration example: agent-kernel → Frame → contextweaver event log
• README and architecture docs reflect the corrected boundary

Priority

P0 — This is the only issue that can silently fracture the ecosystem if left unresolved.

Deferred — breaking change that depends on weaver-spec stabilization beyond v0.2.0. Will reopen when the spec finalizes firewall/frame semantics. Tracked for future consideration.
