tools/approval.py no longer re-exports sibling names (approval_context/prompt/floors/detection/
human_wait/smart/gateway_wait); it imports only what it uses. Siblings reference sibling-defined
names directly (module-attribute reads on tools.approval_context so patching the defining module
still works); only facade-owned state (_lock, _gateway_queues, _permanent_approved, _denied,
_denial_breaker_addendum, _gateway_notify_cb) is still read back through tools.approval.
approval_detection calls its own _command_detection_variants instead of late-binding through the facade.
Approval marks were emitted under a synthetic 'default' relay session:
the hook payload carried only turn_id/tool_call_id, so the observability
plugin's _session_id() fell back to 'default', parenting approval marks
to a session scope that never closes — and close-time exporters never
shipped them. The audit board's approval tables stayed empty while
approvals were demonstrably firing (staging 2026-08-10).
Bind session_id in set_current_observability_context at both dispatch
sites (model_tools tool dispatch, plugins pre-tool-call approval gate)
and forward it on every approval hook. Explicit session_id in a hook
payload still wins; unbound contexts omit it (legacy behavior).
