Official Commentary

Some rules require an operative to shoot or fight against a specific operative or its activation is cancelled (e.g. MANDRAKE DIRGEMAW Haunting Focus, EXACTION SQUAD Execution Order). If my opponent uses such a rule and I cancel that Shoot or Fight action with my SANCTIFIER CONFESSOR operative's Commanding Declamation rule, what happens?

Do not cancel that enemy operative's activation. It can continue to perform actions other than the prevented one as normal.

If the CONFESSOR operative's Commanding Declamation rule prevents an enemy operative on guard from performing the Shoot or Fight action, does that enemy operative remain on guard?

Yes, assuming all other conditions of remaining on guard are still met.

If my opponent uses a firefight ploy that requires an operative to perform a Shoot or Fight action (e.g. HERNKYN YAEGIR Stalwart Defence) and I cancel that action with my SANCTIFIER CONFESSOR operative's Commanding Declamation rule, is the CP refunded?

No. Similarly, any rules with a restricted number of uses (e.g. CORSAIR VOIDSCARRED FELARCH One Step Ahead) that are prevented would still be considered used.

If I use the SANCTIFIER CONFESSOR's Commanding Declamation rule to cancel a Fight or Shoot action that my opponent attempted to perform as a result of their operative being on guard, can my opponent then choose to use the other action instead during that interruption?

Yes.
