The policy half of STA-4319, kept separate from the ssh2 wiring so it is testable without a handshake and injected rather than importing its sources, so a test states its own trust state instead of writing files. Phase 1 ships no dialog — a test asserts the decision is never 'prompt'. Startup restore opens every previously-active target at once, ephemeral VM targets would ask every launch, and paired-web connects run on the host desktop where the dialog would appear on someone else's screen. Ordering that matters: revocation outranks everything including StrictHostKeyChecking=no, because a revoked key is a statement that this key is known-bad rather than merely unrecognised. known_hosts is named before our own store on a change, because its remedy (ssh-keygen -R) is the one that also unblocks ssh and git — pointing at a remedy that cannot work is worse than none. Two carve-outs with reasons: an ephemeral runtime target accepts WITHOUT recording, since a fresh VM presents a new key every launch and a stored record would accumulate per launch and eventually read as a spurious change; and when ssh -G ran on the HOME-divergent path that suppresses /etc/ssh/ssh_config, an unknown host is denied, because a site-wide policy may forbid it and being laxer than ssh is the one outcome that is never acceptable. Rejection text deliberately avoids 'authentication failed' and 'permission denied': the reconnect ladder classifies on those substrings, so a denial phrased that way is retried forever against a decision that will never change. Pinned by a test.
