Kjell Tore Guttormsen 9b47e5aa62 feat(p18): a listing is a WINDOW, and an invented path is refused by name
P18 part A (order 20260914T105139Z). P16 measured S7a-3's ladder against a
delivered corpus for the first time and found two things fixture bases
cannot show.

(1) One level is not bounded by being one level. Measured 14.09 on the four
mounted vegnormal bases: okf.directory_listing on krav/N200 is 169 974 chars
over 1 132 documents, krav/N100 69 250 over 445, krav/N500 39 853 over 269,
and R761's own root 110 912 over 2 728 SUBDIRECTORIES -- 27-113x the
1 500-char ceiling S7a-3 set, riding in every later prompt. That last number
is why the window covers BOTH kinds: a pagination over documents only would
have left the largest measured level unpaginated.

read_dir now answers with a window. offset/limit page directories first then
documents as ONE sequence (two independent windows make "the next ten" a
question with two answers); total is the denominator and is always carried;
limit is CLAMPED to 50, never refused. Default 10 chosen against the ceiling:
one entry is 121-209 chars (median 145) over the four bases. After: n100
1 493, n500 1 453, R761 479, n200 1 537 -- 2.5 % over, stated rather than
tuned away, because the ceiling is a character budget and the window is a
count. Largest single call any caller can make: ~7 600 chars.

filter narrows a level instead of paging it: case-insensitive SUBSTRING over
title + req_number/prosessnr and over a directory path, answering with
total_matches beside total. A substring and not a pattern for
_ground_against_input's reason one rung down -- a form the rule does not know
returns nothing, and an empty listing reads as "the base does not have this".
A filter that matches nothing is an ANSWER (total_matches: 0), never a
refusal. ORDER PREMISE FELLED before building on it: the order asks for a
separate top-level reader "like own_frontmatter" because parse_frontmatter
was last-write-wins -- P15 (f13dc64) already made a top-level key win, so
BundleFile.frontmatter IS the concept's own value and a second reader here
would be the second copy ko-(p) forbids.

(2) 0 of 26 fasit concepts were opened in 32 read_file calls (the order's
"24" is the four runs' DISTINCT paths, re-measured 14.09), and 10 of those
calls named a path the base does not hold. Each reached the model as MAF's
opaque "Error: Function failed." while counting toward the three consecutive
tool errors that end a request. read_file now refuses such a path by name
(BundlePathNotFound, funn-99 returned form) and names the nearest directory
that actually HOLDS documents -- chosen off context_files, never the
filesystem, because a directory can exist on disk and hold no navigated
concept (read_dir would then refuse the very path the refusal handed back)
and because context_files is what drops the type: verdict layer, so a refusal
can never advertise by name the one layer no listing mentions. Narrow by
construction: only an ABSENT path is translated; any other OSError propagates
untouched.

Two existing arms REWRITTEN, neither weakened:
- test_a_nonexistent_sibling_is_still_an_os_error was a tripwire whose own
  docstring said "when it goes red, someone has closed it, and that is a
  decision to be recorded". This is the record. Its narrowness half survives
  as a new arm driving a real PermissionError on a file that IS there.
- test_every_document_is_still_reachable_and_the_counts_add_up became
  STRONGER: the accounting must now page, so the same assertion also proves
  the window is complete and non-overlapping.

tests/test_navigation_window_loadbearing.py: 13 arms. Arms needing the
delivered bases SKIP with the root named (PORTFOLIO_VEGNORMAL_ROOT), as
MAJOR-3's ceiling arm does; the window algebra, the filter negative and the
refusal run over a synthetic base UNCONDITIONALLY, so the file can never be
silently absent in full.

Verification: uv run pytest -q 1672 passed / 5 skipped before the new file
(1670 on cfd9079). ruff check + format clean, mypy clean (38 files). Golden
demo-transcript.stdout BYTE-UNCHANGED, shasum -a 1 of the CONTENT =
ea8c534773acdbe41ae68f2c55724d69aaf8be4f. No version bump, no push.

"""P18/A — a listing is a WINDOW, and a path the caller invented is refused by name.
P16 (``docs/2026-09-14-p16-stressrunde-1.md``) measured the ladder S7a-3 built against a DELIVERED
corpus for the first time, and found two things the fixture bases could not show:
* **one level is not bounded by being one level.** ``okf.directory_listing`` on ``krav/N100`` was
69 250 characters over 445 documents, ``krav/N200`` 169 974 over 1 132, and R761's own root
110 912 over 2 728 SUBDIRECTORIES — 27-113x the 1 500-character ceiling S7a-3 set, riding in
every later prompt. Three of seven paid runs died on the token cap.
* **0 of 26 fasit concepts were opened** in 24 ``read_file`` calls, and 10 of those calls named a
path the base does not hold. Each reached the model as MAF's opaque ``"Error: Function failed."``
(``agent_framework/_tools.py:1410-1432``) while counting toward the three consecutive tool errors
that end a request — so the one thing the caller could have acted on, the level that DOES hold
documents, never reached it.
Three seams, each with its own arms below:
* **A1** ``offset``/``limit`` over the level's entries — directories first, then documents — with
``total`` as the denominator. Clamped, never refused.
* **A2** ``filter``: a case-insensitive substring over a document's title and reference number and
over a directory's path, answering with ``total_matches``. A filter that matches nothing is an
ANSWER, not a refusal.
* **A3** an absent path becomes ``BundlePathNotFound`` in the funn-99 returned form, naming the
nearest directory that actually holds documents. Narrowness is arm (h) and lives in
``test_read_file_directory_refusal_loadbearing.py`` alongside the tripwire it replaced.
The bases this measures are the delivered vegnormal corpora (``PORTFOLIO_VEGNORMAL_ROOT``): arms
that need them SKIP with the root named when it is not mounted, exactly as MAJOR-3's ceiling arm
does — a hard failure would break ``uv run pytest`` inside the handover package. The arms that do
NOT need them (the window's own algebra, the filter's negative, the refusal) are UNCONDITIONAL and
run over a synthetic base, so this file can never be silently absent in full.
