// The middle result says whether the caller should fall back to spec's own
// agent-token plane. Exactly two refusals fall through, and which two is the
// only interesting decision in this function:
//
// - bearer.ErrInvalid — the string did not decode as a token this instance
// sealed. spec's local token is 32 random bytes in base64, which is
// precisely what that looks like.
// - bearer.ErrNotOurs — a well-formed token from another issuer (a meta.sr.ht
// PAT). spec accepts no such credential, but it is not this plane's to
// refuse, and falling through costs one hash lookup that will miss.
//
// spec's local token carries no prefix to discriminate on — unlike bench's and
// cover's — so there is no shape test that could route a request to the right
// plane up front. Trying the instance plane first and falling back on those two
// sentinels is what replaces it.
//
// Every other refusal is terminal and must never reach the old door:
//
// - bearer.ErrRevoked — the credential was withdrawn. Letting a revoked
// instance token be re-tried as a local one would answer "unknown token" for
// a token an operator deliberately killed, and would mean revocation has a
// second door to be checked at.
// - bearer.ErrForbidden — cannot arise from Inspect, which is given no action,
// but is terminal for the same reason: the credential is good.
// - bearer.ErrUnavailable — tokens.sr.ht could not be asked. Degrading to the
// legacy plane when the daemon is unreachable is exactly the silent
// downgrade the 503 of StatusFor exists to prevent.

// credentials are bad when the truth is that one service is down. 503 says
// the true thing and keeps the operator's attention where the fault is.
// - ErrMissingGrant and ErrNotInstanceOwner are 403: the credential verifies
// and the holder is who they say they are, so retrying is pointless and what
// they need is a wider grant, not another login.
// - Everything permanent about the credential itself — unknown, revoked,
// malformed, on either plane — is 401.
// - Everything else is transient by definition and answers 503, which is the
// fail-closed direction: a backend outage never reads as a valid credential.
