secrets-engine delivered the action vocabulary T01 asked for: twelve
actions read out of cli.py, not the example vocabulary. The gate earned
its keep -- four would have been inferred wrongly, and revoke, the
obvious thirteenth, does not exist as an action at all. It gates as
deactivate, which is also reached from lifecycle deactivate.
docs/secrets-engine-action-vocabulary.md records the list and the four
traps. examples/secrets-engine/ carries the package, both manifests, a
loadable registry snapshot, 26 fixtures, five check requests, and a
README. validate -kind policy is valid with 22/22 Rego tests and 26/26
fixtures.
allow_ttl is 15m, stated in the package rather than inherited from the
engine default: these decisions authorize live secret operations, so the
reliance window belongs where a reviewer sees it. Per FLEX-DEC-2026-004
it is authority to issue, not authority to keep using what the operation
produced.
destroy is the dual-control case, gated on a context.approval claim
marked approved with two distinct approvers, repeated entries counting
once. flex-auth checks what the claim says and deliberately does not
re-derive its temporal validity, signature, or supersession -- those are
approval-engine's to assert and the PEP's to verify against the live
claim, per the split accepted in FLEX-DEC-2026-006. It stays in the
package though its handler raises before the gate, so the rule is
reviewed and fixtured before SECRETS-WP-0007-T04 opens the path.
Following the FLEX-WP-0010-T02 precedent the denial ladder has no
action_not_granted branch: one subject holding all twelve actions could
never reach it, and a rule that cannot fail reads as control that is not
there. Registering a second calling identity is the revisit trigger.
Not deployed. No flex-auth-secrets-engine pin exists yet (T04), so their
policy pin stays unset and fail-closed until T05.
