A copy-paste full-surface focus string (all web classes, prioritise authed
surface + subdomains, chain to impact, reproducible receipt) and an
objective-vs-focus note; the engagement template now carries the broad
focus/objective in its one-file config.

Hard scope stays the safety boundary (you must say what you're allowed to test),
but setting it is now frictionless for a normal client pentest where authorization
comes from a signed SOW/contract — no bug-bounty program or capability token.
- /authorize <host|*.dom|cidr|url> ... (aliases /grant, /inscope-set): set the
entire authorized scope in one line (multiple entries), pins it so /target
won't re-derive, and seeds the target so /run works immediately. The operator
asserts written authorization for the listed assets; guardrails (rate,
accounts, destructive) remain tunable via /guardrail.
- examples/scopes/engagement.example.yaml — neutral direct-engagement template
(no program framing): fill hard scope from the SOW, guardrails documented as
yours to tune (e.g. allow destructive in a staging env, raise rate for a lab).
The frictionless path already worked (/target x -> authorized against x); this
makes the multi-asset direct engagement a single clear command. 422 tests.
