/**
* design/378 — turn a caller-owned MCP entry list into FROZEN PLAIN DATA, reading every own property
* exactly once.
*
* WHY A COPY. `McpServerSpec.contentOrigin` decides whether a server's tools mark the session's
* memory, and the entry objects travel a long way: the preparation door validates them, then
* `materializeMcpTools` connects them, then every mid-task refresh re-reads the same object. A value
* read off a LIVE object is only true for as long as the object holds still, and the fail-open
* direction is the reachable one — so both boundaries consume data instead.
*
* The read discipline is the load-bearing part, and it is why the copy is made in the pass that reads
* rather than "read the property, then copy the object": a getter answering ALTERNATING LEGAL values would
* satisfy any number of re-reads (`"external"` to a validator, `"local"` to a mint site), and no
* vocabulary guard anywhere has purchase on a legal value. One pass evaluates every member EXACTLY ONCE
* and materializes the result as plain data; every later reader — validator, connect, refresh — then sees
* the same byte. Frozen so nothing downstream rewrites it.
*
* Plain data, stated: an entry IS plain data, to its whole depth, or it is refused whole. The entry is read
* by the one declaration reading ({@link receiveDeclaration} — the engine's one receipt of a caller's object,
* in its declaration mode): every own member read once off its captured descriptor, every level copied, every
* copied container frozen; an object the entry reaches through two members is read once, and both hold the one
* copy. So a server's `transport` with its `args` / `env` / `headers`, `allowTools`, `toolFaces`, `toolAxes`
* and a peer's `headers` and `allowSkills` are the copy's own, and a host that edits its own nested object after
* the door (a header value, an `allowSkills.push`) reaches nothing the engine holds: the dial, a refresh and a
* re-dial all work from this copy, on both surfaces. The axes are then judged on that copy by their own reader
* ({@link judgeEntryToolAxes}).
*
* There is no third outcome between "copied whole" and "refused": a value the copy cannot carry whole is a
* declaration the engine cannot read — a Proxy at any level, an object whose prototype is neither
* `Object.prototype` nor null (a class instance, a map, `process.env`, a record built on a prototype or in another
* realm, whose members a copy would drop or could not tell from its own), a function, a structure that contains
* itself, a getter that throws (whatever it throws), a nesting too deep to read, a list element that is not a
* string, a member named `__proto__`, an entry that is not an object. Each is refused as `config.invalid_argument`
* naming the declarer and the member where reading stopped (`toolFaces.write_file`, `allowTools[2]`), never as the
* raw error the host's code threw, and never by handing the host's object on: a member some of whose getters have
* already run would be read again downstream, and could answer differently. The door refuses the whole prepare and
* a library entrance the whole call, with this one sentence either way.
*
* Exported because the SECOND boundary needs the identical guarantee: `materializeMcpTools` is public
* and a library caller reaches it without passing any door, so it snapshots its own input through
* this same function (idempotent over an already-frozen entry). One spelling, both entrances.
