Author real Slack authorization expiry and normal human reconnect proof

+`chat-channels.repair-endpoint` selects the same Slack fields plus
+`botTokenExpiresAt` and `repairBotTokenEnv`. The original bot token must still
+successfully identify the designated bot during historical fixture qualification
+and naturally expire within the bounded two-to-eight-minute window. The separate
+repair token must independently identify that same bot/app/workspace and remain
+valid. No token is revoked, rotated, exchanged or minted by this fixture. Initial
+historical qualification uses the actual public board configure route, not the
+normal UI under evaluation. The SDK generation is invalidated by an actual
+pause/resume while the old credential still works. Its next genuine signed
+intake must fail after the official provider returns `token_expired`, without a
+setup native run; any other starting condition blocks qualification.
+
+The tested human repair uses the actual protected Reconnect form, the selected
+human's Slack App Settings Request URL retry/re-entry, fresh provider-signed
+verification, normal existing-person wizard continuation and Done. A later new
+same-thread native reply is still mandatory. Expiry timing is credential-fixture
+metadata, not an expected model answer. Missing qualified tokens/session/app
+management authority are prerequisites, never positive coverage. The case is
+bounded at 25 minutes and performs no external operations during offline
+calibration. A visible real form rejection is retained as a nonpassing product
+observation; the harness does not pre-reject an actual rotating-token format or
+bypass that form. Slack's documented rotating access-token format is described at
+https://docs.slack.dev/authentication/using-token-rotation/.
