Gateway Operation

A gateway operation is an immediate, whole-gateway action requested on demand — for example rebooting the gateway or triggering a vendor-defined maintenance routine. It is distinct from a connector desired spec (long-lived configuration) and from commands sent to a managed sub-device (ADR-0012).

• The platform has no built-in operation vocabulary. Every operation is a descriptor: key, interaction (request-response/one-way), timeout, parameter/result JSON Schemas and risk level (read/normal/dangerous).
• Descriptors come from a gateway's hello advertisement, are defined privately by a tenant, or are a private clone of an advertised descriptor. A tenant may disable any operation.
• Invocation of a dangerous operation requires a fresh step-up TOTP challenge. Parameters may reference edge secrets and are resolved at the last mile.
