## Cordis surface
Generated from source by `scripts/gen-cordis-catalog.ts` (verified fresh by `pnpm run verify-cordis-catalog` in doc-sync; regenerate with `pnpm run gen-cordis-catalog`) — this section is byte-identical in both language sides of the page. Signature blocks use a `ts cordis-catalog` fence and keep the original source JSDoc; dispatch modes are defined in the [primer](../cordis-primer.md#dispatch-modes), and the framework-inherited `ctx` surface lives in [cordis-api/inherited.md](../cordis-api/inherited.md).

### `ctx.permission` — `PermissionService`
Owns the deployment's permission presets and their write path. Requires a confining `ctx.bash` executor and `ctx.approval`; unmatched knob values are reported as CUSTOM_PRESET, not an error.
```ts cordis-catalog
/**
* Resolve the preset matching the effective knob values. A still-matching
* last selection wins shared-bundle ties; otherwise the first table match
* wins, or {@link CUSTOM_PRESET} when no entry matches.
* @param events - the session's events in log order.
* @returns the effective preset name, or `custom` when nothing matches.
*/
current(events: readonly SessionEvent[]): string
/**
* Build the whole select value for one folded knob state: every table
* option in declaration order, `custom` appended exactly while derived.
* @param state - the folded knob overrides.
* @returns the `permissions` projection payload.
*/
selectFor(state: KnobState): PermissionSelect
/**
* Resolve a preset's knob bundle.
* @param name - the preset name to resolve.
* @returns the configured bundle.
* @throws when `name` is not in the table.
*/
resolve(name: string): PresetSpec
/**
* Build the client option for a table entry or {@link CUSTOM_PRESET}. A
* missing label falls back to the table key.
* @param name - a table key, or `custom`.
* @returns the option a client renders.
* @throws when `name` is neither a table key nor `custom`.
*/
optionOf(name: string): PresetOption
/**
* Record a changed preset, then update each changed knob through its own
* setter. Selecting the effective preset again appends nothing.
* @param session - the session the switch belongs to.
* @param name - the preset to switch to; unknown names throw.
