docs(profile): clarify identity diagnostics heading

- The canned TAT test token tripped the deterministic gate's
  public-content rule; switch to the recognized your-access-token
  placeholder (no assertion semantics change).
- Drop the implementation mechanisms from the lark-shared frontmatter
  description (WHAT only; the body owns HOW) and tighten the
  clear-session-identity routing entry.

 Program output (JSON envelopes) goes to stdout. Progress, warnings, hints go to stderr. Mixing them corrupts pipe chains.
 
+### Typed data over loose maps
+
+Parse `map[string]interface{}` into a typed struct at the boundary — one projection function per shape — and let everything downstream consume struct fields, not string keys. A typo'd map key compiles fine and fails at runtime, which an agent then debugs blind.
+
+Use distinct types when two values could be swapped silently: see `internal/meta.Token` — a bare string compiles on either side of a string/string signature, a distinct type does not.
+
+Legacy loose-map code exists in older paths. Match its call sites when touching it, but do not copy the pattern into new code.
+
+### Transcribe faithfully — no silent fallbacks
+
+When code echoes input onward (request previews, transformations, proxies), transcribe verbatim. A `default:` branch that coerces unrecognized input into a plausible value ("unknown HTTP verb → GET") makes the output lie, and an agent reasons from the lie.
+
+The same rule applies to flag combinations and internal wiring: if a requested option cannot be honored, return a typed validation error — never silently substitute another behavior and exit 0. Silent guesses (defaulting a missing identity, discarding writes on a nil writer) are bugs even when every current caller happens to avoid them.
