### What
When a task has no inlets or outlets and accesses
`context["asset_state_store"]`, it raises a plain `KeyError:
'asset_state_store'` at runtime. The key is only added to the context dict when
the task declares at least one asset-typed inlet or outlet and this is
intentional, since `AssetStateStoreAccessors.__init__` fires a
`SUPERVISOR_COMMS.send(GetAssetsByAlias)` comms roundtrip for `AssetAlias`
inlets, and we do not want that cost on every task unconditionally.
### Alternatives I considered
- **Always add `asset_state_store` unconditionally**, dropped it because it
triggers the `GetAssetsByAlias` comms call for every task regardless of whether
it uses assets.
- **Catch `KeyError("asset_state_store")` in the task runner** felt too
specific and fragile.
### Proposed change
Document the behavior in `asset-state-store.rst`: if a task has no inlets or
outlets and accesses `context["asset_state_store"]`, a `KeyError` is raised.
The fix for users is to declare at least one asset inlet or outlet.
