Everything other than `local-only` is treated as off-machine, including an unrecognized custom scope: the conservative default is that an unknown destination *leaves*, so a host never under-gates. + +**A scope is declared at the provider (data-flow) level, and it governs every frame that provider serves.** There is no per-frame scope: the serving provider's declaration *is* the egress class of each frame it returns.

It nonetheless lives in `contextgraph-types` rather than the host crate, for the same reason the usage report does: it is a *protocol-defined shape*. Any host in any language that claims the consent guarantee must produce this shape, and an auditor reading a persisted ledger must be able to parse it without depending on one particular host implementation.
