refactor: remove legacy bounded execution in favor of MCP enclaves

[lpcox]

Stack

Final layer 5, targeting lpcox-enclave-mcpg-integration (#6992).

Depends on:

• feat: add unified enclave foundation #6986
• feat: add enclave MCP script executor #6988
• feat: add enclave agent executor #6990
• feat: route unified enclaves exclusively through mcpg #6992
• Compile unified AWF enclaves through mcpg gh-aw#50920
• Retry late HTTP backend registration gh-aw-mcpg#10784

Summary

• Remove the retired bounded query and bounded agent config/API surfaces, wrappers, skills, ingress paths, brokers, services, images, workflows, fixtures, tests, and guides.
• Reject both removed top-level configuration keys as invalid unknown fields; there is no compatibility mode or legacy fallback.
• Consolidate staging, finite disclosure, shared per-repository budgeting, private audit, runtime preflight, cleanup, and telemetry behind one AWF-owned enclave MCP server.
• Expose only enclave_run_script and enclave_run_agent, conditionally by enabled executor, with primary-agent access exclusively through mcpg.
• Publish and scan only enclave-script, enclave-agent, and enclave-mcp-server images from containers/enclave/Dockerfile.
• Preserve script no-network isolation and agent API-proxy-only isolation, including exact network topology/membership checks before every agent launch.
• Strip GitHub credential aliases from the primary-agent environment whenever enclaves are enabled.
• Preserve graceful cleanup telemetry and explicitly mark incomplete audit artifacts if graceful shutdown cannot be confirmed.

Rollout ordering

Do not enable this layer until github/gh-aw#50920's compiler contract and github/gh-aw-mcpg#10784's late backend rediscovery are available. The latter requires MCP Gateway spec 1.15.0 and the first gh-aw-mcpg release after v0.4.8 containing it. Firewall readiness continues to retry 503 backend_unavailable within AWF_ENCLAVE_MCP_READINESS_TIMEOUT_MS; that behavior is inherited from #6992 rather than duplicated here.

Validation

Passed locally:

• Enclave script image build and read-only/no-network execution smoke
• Unified MCP server image build and module-graph import validation
• Script-only, agent-only, and dual-executor MCP tool-publication smokes
• Exact API-proxy-only agent network topology and per-launch membership checks
• Graceful shutdown/cleanup telemetry smoke
• Container JavaScript syntax, Python compile, shell syntax
• Workflow/action YAML parsing
• Runtime/docs schema generation and byte parity
• Repository diff/whitespace checks
• Repository-wide legacy identifier/path/image/service residual searches
• Multiple security-focused code-review and rubber-duck passes

Environment-blocked locally:

• npm ci cannot fetch typescript-eslint@8.66.0 (ENOTCONN; Microsoft mirror also lacks the tarball), so TypeScript type-check/build, Jest suites, and changed-file ESLint could not run.
• The enclave-agent image build cannot fetch @github/copilot@1.0.34 from npm in this environment.
• Docker Desktop has no registered runsc, so the gVisor smoke remains CI-only.

Intentional residual terminology

The removed names remain only in the explicit migration tables in docs/awf-config-spec.md and docs/enclaves-architecture.md, mapping old concepts to enclave_run_script and enclave_run_agent. There are no active code, config, workflow, image, service, or wrapper references.

Merged main in ca85a36. Resolved modify/delete conflicts on containers/bounded-agent/Dockerfile and containers/bounded-query/Dockerfile by keeping the deletion (main only bumped their Node base image tag). tsc --noEmit and npm test pass; one pre-existing unrelated failure in src/enclave/runtime-preflight.test.ts was confirmed present before this merge too.

Smoke Test: API Proxy OTEL Tracing

• ✅ Module Loading: otel.js loads cleanly, exports startRequestSpan, setTokenAttributes, setBudgetAttributes, endSpan, endSpanError, shutdown, isEnabled.
• ✅ Test Suite: otel.test.js, otel-fanout.test.js, otel-workload-identity.test.js — 68/68 tests passed.
• ✅ Env Var Forwarding: env-passthrough.ts forwards GITHUB_AW_OTEL_TRACE_ID/GITHUB_AW_OTEL_PARENT_SPAN_ID (and COPILOT_OTEL_FILE_EXPORTER_PATH) into the agent; api-proxy-env-config.ts buildOtelEnv() forwards OTLP endpoint/headers, service name, and parent trace context into api-proxy.
• ✅ Token Tracker Integration: onUsage callback present in token-tracker-http.js (invoked after normalized usage extraction) as the OTEL hook point.
• i️ OTEL Diagnostics: Not independently re-verified in this pass (no live span export check performed); relies on prior pre-step output.

Result: All checked scenarios passed.

Notes:

• Java required -Dmaven.repo.local=<writable path> since the default ~/.m2/repository was not writable in this environment; Maven proxy settings (~/.m2/settings.xml) worked correctly through the AWF Squid proxy for downloading dependencies.
• All network access (git clone, package installs, dependency downloads) succeeded through the firewall for allowed domains.
