Mesh AssistQuery answered with a bare LLM call — no tools, no actions.
The CallerScope::Mesh variant was designed for this wiring ('the variant
exists so the shape is right when a future plan wires mesh callers into
the shared loop'); this is that plan. A trusted/allowlisted asker's prompt
now runs assistant::chat with CallerScope::Mesh { authorized } — the
operator's persisted grants cap what the model may touch (never wider),
and writes suspend on the node's own confirm gate. The reply is capped
for airtime as before, with a brevity instruction for mesh turns.
Wiring follows the blob_store pattern: RpcHandler::set_mesh_service (now
&Arc<Self>) forward-propagates an Arc<RpcHandler> into the mesh state's
new assistant_handler slot; absent (early boot) falls back to the legacy
bare-LLM answer.
Test: mesh_caller_authority_is_capped_at_operator_grants.
