Record the claim vs ActionAuthorization envelope divergence

Browse source 
secrets-engine reports its PIP join is implemented and blocked on
deployment rather than contract. Reviewing its
validate_action_authorization against what this engine actually serves
shows that is not the whole story: it expects a state-hub-authority
ActionAuthorization (id, status, superseded_by, request,
approvals.entries, policy pin) while GET /v1/approvals/{id}/claim serves
the governed approval-claim (approval_id, state/valid_now, binding,
freshness, reason_code, issuer approval-engine).

Both envelopes declare schema_version 0.1, so the version check passes
and the mismatch surfaces as a field or authority error that reads like
an approval-engine outage.

Document the field-by-field divergence and why the omissions are
deliberate: a claim is a fact about an approval object, not a decision,
so approver identities and policy pins are not republished. Reconciling
the envelopes is a GH-DEC-2026-003 cross-repo change, so the governed
claim schema is left unchanged here.

No code change; 84 tests still pass.

@ -185,3 +185,15 @@ claim refusal, and unreachable-engine callback suppression. Waiting on live
closure: this service deployed (T03) and a durable consume binding served
(`SECRETS-WP-0007-T04` / `SECRETS-WP-0008-T02`). This repo does not claim the
OpenBao side effect.
2026-09-06 follow-up: secrets-engine reports its PIP join is implemented and
blocked on deployment, not contract (inbox `61ae1174`). Review of its
`validate_action_authorization` shows a real envelope divergence: it expects a
`state-hub`-authority `ActionAuthorization` (`id`, `status`, `superseded_by`,
`request`, `approvals.entries`, policy pin) while this engine serves the
governed approval-claim (`approval_id`, `state`/`valid_now`, `binding`,
`freshness`, `reason_code`, `issuer: approval-engine`). Both declare
`schema_version` `0.1`, so the mismatch surfaces as a field/authority error
rather than a version error. Recorded in `docs/approval-consumption.md`;
reconciling the envelopes is a `GH-DEC-2026-003` cross-repo change, not a
unilateral edit here. T05 stays `wait`: still no deployed base URL (T03).
