actor.level-change@1: the body of PUT /api/v1/agents/{id}/level (capability actor.agent.manage). LEVEL is the new approval level of the person's agent; the answer is the agent (actor.agent@1) with its level. The level never widens the floor: money, passwords, deletions and sending to a new recipient ask at every level. AGENT\_ID and THREAD\_ID are optional echoes for a caller changing a level from a thread; Actor checks the agent in the path and stores the agent level only.
