Evaluate Security

POST /fabric/security/evaluate

POST /fabric/security/evaluate

Evaluate security for an action.

This endpoint runs the action through all security checks and returns the verdict along with any threat detections.

CAIN 24.0: `identity_active`/`delegation_valid`/`trajectory_safe` are a fallback only. Pass `identity_id` (and, if relevant, `delegation_id` / `trajectory_id` / `required_capability`) to have this endpoint independently re-derive those facts from identity_engine and trajectory_enforcement rather than trusting the caller's claim -- see AgentSecurityEngine.evaluate_security's docstring.
