Description
Problem. There's no standard way to query a pod's RDF server-side — clients must fetch whole resources and filter locally.
Proposal. A read-only HTTP endpoint answering SPARQL over a pod, returning only the triples the authenticated agent may Read. A new read interface layered on the pod's existing authorization (WAC/ACP) — authentication-mechanism-agnostic, like the core Solid Protocol; not a new authorization model or wire protocol. Invariant: a query never reveals a triple the agent couldn't read directly.
