approval-engine raised APPROVAL-IN-0002: secrets-engine's PEP validator
expects a flex-auth ActionAuthorization but fetches the approval-claim
endpoint that GH-DEC-2026-003 names as step 1. Two objects on one path.
GH-IN-0002 records the intake; GH-DEC-2026-005 resolves it. The claim is
the step-1 artifact and always was — ActionAuthorization is unratified,
has no valid_now field, and cannot be served from a step-1 call. The
addition beyond confirmation is doctrine: a PEP validates each artifact
against the layer that owns its data, and no PIP republishes the PDP's
decision. The provenance.authority == "state-hub" requirement is struck;
State Hub is a read model and holds no runtime approval authority.
docs/contracts/approval-consumption.md carries the amendment at the
sequence itself so implementers find it there.

Adopt approval-engine's outbox wire as Gate House doctrine, specify the
heartbeat-and-reconciliation detection surface, and settle consumption
ordering: the PEP consumes by CAS before the side effect. T05's §11
check is written here and queued for statute v0.8.
