getPolicy — Read a channel's publish POLICY — the house rules an incoming scene is measured against.
remixChannel — Fork another channel's CURRENT scene into a brand-new channel that YOU own — the atomic, server-side equivalent of "create a new channel and publish this scene into it." The server reads the source channel's live, steered state (its resolvedSpec) and republishes it, preserving the seed for visual fidelity.
