Conversation kinds and action surface policy

The action surface policy classifies h2a and group as executable. h2h and direct are humans-only and always deny Agent actions. official, lounge, and community are public surfaces. Every live Conversation and Message action has allow_in_public: false, so public surfaces deny reads such as list, get, members, history, and search as well as writes. Unknown conversation kinds fail closed.

Runtime decisions use the typed reasons deny_humans_only, deny_public, and deny_unknown; preserve the actual error instead of replacing it with card wording. These are execution-surface rules. From an allowed h2a or group turn, an action may target a different accessible conversation, including another group. That target is still protected by the Agent’s membership gate; it does not inherit an extra restriction merely because it differs from the current turn.

Do not infer support for conversation kinds not listed here. Runtime policy and typed action errors remain authoritative if this reference conflicts with a deployed revision.
