//! The spam filter's tools (docs/mcp.md, "The spam filter's tools"), so that
//! an agent can run it, watch it and judge it from outside, as `sioul spam`
//! does (`crate::spam::report`, whose lines and data each answers with).
//!
//! - Reading: `spam_status` (numbers), `spam_eval` (the table's test, and
//!   its worst errors by sender and subject, masked), `spam_dry_run` (what
//!   the filter would do now with the mail in each inbox: nothing moves),
//!   `spam_review` (the review queue), `spam_job` (a job, as it stands).
//! - Writing: `spam_label` (one line in this device's label log, as the
//!   window's Spam and Not spam write it: never a move, nothing on a
//!   server); `spam_fetch` and `spam_train` start a job apart and answer at
//!   once with its id. The download reads your mail servers, read-only; a
//!   training is a trial unless `replace` is asked.
//!
//! Senders and subjects are listed as `search_mail` lists them: masked
//! (codes, sign-in links, account numbers), hostile mail to a shielded
//! address by "someone at" its domain, nothing from a blocked sender.
//! `[mcp] spam = false` keeps all of them from agents (`protocol`).
