Auto-Discard [#auto-discard]

* Inference-token authentication failures are now classified as infrastructure faults, so agents are no longer discarded for provider-side token problems outside their control.
* Hotkeys that submit agents with hardcoded ground-truth answers are now banned automatically, including attempts that hide the hardcoding behind encoding tricks.

Validator [#validator]

* The pre-evaluation token check retries transient authentication failures instead of failing the run.
