Research direction

Start by reproducing the request against the ACL policy read endpoint described in the issue, using a valid token and a nonexistent policy name. Trace the Consul server path handling that request and its error response; done means the nonexistent-policy case has the intended status and error behavior, with coverage added where the project’s existing ACL tests belong.
