FLEX-WP-0009 - user-engine production authorization

Provide the cluster-local flex-auth policy-decision service required by the user-engine portal. The consumer contract is net-kingdom/docs/user-engine-platform-expansion-contract.md.

T01 - Pin the protected-system vocabulary

id: FLEX-WP-0009-T01
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "e940c5a3-ecb4-43d3-9554-2bfb422ec56d"

Add a user-engine protected-system manifest, resource manifests, subject fixtures, and check-request fixtures. Cover self, tenant-admin, and platform-admin actions over user, membership, invitation, tenant, recovery, and outbox resources. Unknown resources/actions and cross-tenant requests must deny.

Done when all manifests validate and the vocabulary matches the action and resource strings emitted by user-engine.

Done 2026-08-09: examples/user-engine defines the dynamic protected-system registry and verified-claim request vocabulary for platform, tenant-admin, self-service, cross-tenant, missing-role, and wrong-system cases.

T02 - Implement and verify the policy package

id: FLEX-WP-0009-T02
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "6e0fe708-d7ff-411f-a64d-84a1692a6e11"

Implement policy-as-code for self-only mutations, tenant-admin authority within one tenant, and platform-admin authority for tenant creation, recovery, outbox delivery, and replay. Include allow, deny, missing-role, target-user mismatch, cross-tenant, malformed-context, and stale-policy fixtures.

Done when fixture evaluation is deterministic, default deny is proven, and decision envelopes contain stable decision IDs and policy provenance.

Done 2026-08-09: all six embedded Rego tests and all six request fixtures pass; the package validates under CARING 0.4.0-rc2 and the registry loads cleanly.

T03 - Deploy the cluster-local service

id: FLEX-WP-0009-T03
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "f8293230-136d-4f2d-8d3f-bb9840ea7e63"

Publish an immutable flex-auth image and deploy a namespaced Service at http://flex-auth.flex-auth.svc.cluster.local:8080. Apply least-privilege security context, readiness/liveness probes, resource limits, default-deny NetworkPolicy, and ingress restricted to approved protected systems.

Done when user-engine can reach POST /v1/check, an unrelated namespace cannot, and restart/rollback procedures are documented.

Done 2026-08-09: immutable digest sha256:a31961c45215aa6baf3bc748c6741ab703c2c8325e61aa7983a355026195e51b is deployed as flex-auth-user-engine.flex-auth.svc.cluster.local:8080, Ready behind ingress restricted to the user-engine workload and with no egress.

T04 - Hand back production evidence

id: FLEX-WP-0009-T04
status: progress
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "97b931e9-ac5b-46c7-a462-e23c0c18c4f4"

Run live allow, deny, service-unavailable, and cross-tenant probes from the user-engine namespace. Record only non-secret decision IDs, effects, reasons, policy version, and correlation IDs. Send completion evidence to NK-WP-0024.

Done when user-engine can replace its local authorization bridge without an availability bypass and the deployed failure matrix remains fail closed.

2026-08-09 live evidence: from the user-engine pod, live-self returned allow with decision decision:4bf95ebb989ac628; the cross-tenant variant returned deny/cross_tenant with decision decision:bab072ce3ee72d98. Runtime activation remains gated on the separately owned event and mail receivers.
