Start-of-flow trigger on the nfc capability. Fires when a card is presented, BEFORE and regardless of the access decision : a swipe may be denied. The `value` out-pin carries the card token or actor. Use this to react to a specific card ('when my gym fob is tapped, turn on the porch light') independent of whether it unlocks anything.

nfc scanned reports every token a reader sees, including ones nobody issued, so the decision is yours to make in the flow: compare the token against your own list with == before anything opens. Use the access granted and denied triggers instead when the reader itself holds the credential list.
