You lost me. If I want to grant read to /etc/passwd, how do I do it without threading it through every call? Is it an implicit parameter system? Do you literally write “/etc/passwd” in the code?

Authority grants are ambient at an and the compiler makes distinctions at the module level, though you can annotate a function. It’s most like a language called Austral.
