"""CODEC AskUserQuestion — pause an agent and ask the user.
Per docs/PHASE1-STEP3-DESIGN.md (v2, §9 RESOLVED).
Public API: ``ask(question, options=None, timeout=None, ...) → str``
Storage: ``~/.codec/pending_questions.json`` (canonical state — atomic write)
Notif: ``~/.codec/notifications.json`` (display surface — type="question")
Reply: ``POST /api/agents/answer/{id}`` (PWA + voice — see codec_dashboard.py / codec_voice.py)
Blocking: ``threading.Event`` keyed by ``pending_question_id``. The caller's
worker thread sleeps on ``Event.wait(timeout)`` until either the answer
endpoint fires the event or the deadline elapses. **No async** — matches
the Step 2 sync-only-hooks contract.
Correlation: per Step 1 §1.4, the wrapping operation generates
``correlation_id`` once and threads it via ``contextvars``. ``ask()`` does
NOT re-emit the envelope on resume — the blocked-then-unblocked tool call
is one logical operation in the audit log.
Strict-consent gate (§1.7): irreversible actions opt in via
``destructive=True`` kwarg, caller-supplied ``destructive_verb``, OR
auto-trigger when the calling tool name is in ``codec_config._HTTP_BLOCKED``.
On strict-consent, the answer must contain the destructive verb literally
(case-insensitive) — generic "yes"/"ok"/"sure" rejected with re-prompt.
After two rejections, the question times out as
``ask_user_question_timeout`` with ``extra.reason="ambiguous_consent"``.
Kill switch: ``ASKUSER_ENABLED`` env var (default ``true``). When ``false``,
``ask()`` returns ``"(skill disabled)"`` immediately with no state change.
