A policy-as-code capable authorization registry/control-plane service.
flex-auth answers gate-house's assent request on the three items ratified in
GH-DEC-2026-001, following the estate precedent that a boundary is drawn on
review by the other side.
Assent to all three, with one conformance debt flex-auth accepts as its own and
two conditions on the rename:
- Engine framing and sole decision point: assent. flex-auth cannot hold this
boundary against zone-engine and decline it as a general rule. But standard
section 6 also binds flex-auth: DecisionProvenance carries no registry
snapshot digest, so a decision that turned on registry content cannot be
replayed from its own provenance. Recorded as a known non-conformance rather
than claimed as conformance.
- access-engine rename: assent to the name, not to execution. Repository
identity and runtime identity must rename in separate revertible steps —
since FLEX-WP-0016 the enforcing ops-warden pin binds tokens to the
protected-system name, so a single-step rename 401s every warden sign,
including the certificate the ops-bridge tunnels depend on. FLEX-WP prefix
ownership stays with the repository.
- Authoring/evaluation split: assent, with the section 6 test applied
symmetrically — a gate-house authority ceiling that determines an outcome
reaches the decision as an input claim or as a rule in the versioned policy
package, so its application stays reconstructable from the decision record.
FLEX-WP-0017-T03 stays wait: the design half re-routes to gate-house, the
durable storage half remains unowned and is raised as an engine gap under
section 5.
Decision id follows the canon scheme {PREFIX}-DEC-YYYY-NNN.

Policy-as-code authorization registry and control plane for NetKingdom-aligned systems.
Start with INTENT.md for the project boundary and direction. Research notes and ADRs live in docs/ and docs/adr/.
The product boundary is captured in SCOPE.md, and the current Product Requirements Document is docs/ProductRequirementsDocument.md.
The 2026-05-15 pre-implementation assessment that shapes the current sequencing is in docs/pre-implementation-assessment.md.
The CARING reference-implementation approach is captured in docs/caring-architecture-blueprint.md.
Workplans live in workplans/, with sequencing captured in docs/workplan-planning-map.md.
