Harden API and input boundaries against implicit assumptions

Summary#

A repeated pattern across verifier, tokenizer, and kernel-call fixes is that boundary code fails when it assumes friendly shapes, safe regex input, installed optional dependencies, or consistent positional signatures. The better default is to validate at load time, prefer explicit keyworded interfaces, and isolate optional features so unsupported environments fail safely instead of unpredictably.

Problem#

Unchecked external input and implicit API contracts create security issues, runtime crashes, and environment-specific breakage that only appears outside the happy path.

Solution#

Add early validation for structural constraints, escape or sanitize user-controlled patterns, guard optional imports, and make cross-implementation calls explicit enough that signature drift cannot silently corrupt behavior.

Failure Modes#

Relying on positional arguments across interchangeable backends with different parameter order
Using user- or repo-derived strings directly as regex patterns or other executable selectors
Referencing optional-package symbols at import time instead of inside availability guards
