The README tells a deployment to publish an entity-scoped record naming its domain as the way to be left alone by all of its agents. The floor never reads such a record. Someone who writes one following that advice is still named by every agent here.
README.md:53: "A deployment should also publish how to be left alone by all of its agents at once — an entity-scoped record naming the deployment's domain".crates/didbot-policy-records/floor/declared-ai-preference.json:11: the lookup reads only rkeyself, the global default.crates/didbot-policy-records/floor/declared-ai-preference.cases.json:180: "a scope naming this deployment declines, and the global default permits" expectsallow.plan/ai-preference.md:95-98decided onselfalone, so the README and the plan disagree about what a person should write.declared-ai-preference.json:31:unknownReasonsays the policy "refuses a write naming somebody whose preference it has not read". Withunknown: standAside(line 29), that write is allowed and this text is never shown. The floor is meant to be copied, so an operator who copies it inherits a reason that contradicts what the rule does.
Suggested fix: decide which opt-out a stranger uses, then make the README and the floor agree. Either change the README to say self, or also honour an entity-scoped decline naming ${deployment.hostname} (the regex grammar already selects on scope.entity, but it needs a collection read rather than one getRecord). Delete the unused unknownReason.

Fixed by #1174 on main: 44e04699 points the README at the
selfrecord that the declared-ai-preference floor reads, matching plan/ai-preference.md.
