Problem

Outside any aura project (no Aura.toml up-tree), aura campaign show <id> / aura process show <id> refuse with aura: campaign|process <id> not found in the project store (exit 1) — asserting a project store the environment does not have and blaming the id. campaign validate in the same spot degrades honestly ("referential checks skipped (no Aura.toml found up from )"). Found by the #300 fieldtest (fieldtests/cycle-300-document-first/df_4_show_refusals.md).

Cause (diagnosed)

show_process (crates/aura-cli/src/research_docs.rs:265) and show_campaign (:586) call env.registry() without the env.provenance().is_none() guard their siblings campaign_runs (:413) and validate_campaign_file (:564) use; the no-project fallback store returns Ok(None), indistinguishable from an unregistered id.

Wanted

Both show fns guard first and refuse with the sibling prose ("… needs a project … (no Aura.toml found up from {cwd})"); the refusal exit 1 stays. RED test exists (show_outside_a_project_names_the_missing_aura_toml_not_the_id).
