# informed-decision — PEP unreachable-engine stance map
#
# Framework: net-kingdom/canon/standards/security-layer-model_v0.7.md §6.4, §9.3, §9.7
# Built to:  v0.8 obligation 3 (GH-DEC-2026-011), not v0.7 — per GH-DEC-2026-012,
#            so this is built to rather than migrated to.
# Ruling:    GH-DEC-2026-012
# Validate:  pytest tests/test_layer_conformance.py
#
# §6.4 obligation 3 requires a declared unreachable-engine stance that is total,
# scoped per zone, carries no implicit default and no per-call discretion, and is
# published rather than held in code comments. A map that lives only in a module
# default is not published — it is merely written down.
#
# The property that makes this worth reading: it is asserted equal to the shipped
# map in informed_decision/stance.py by tests/test_layer_conformance.py. A
# published map that may drift from the code is worse than none, because it
# invites reliance it cannot support.

# v0.8 obligation 3: the map MUST enumerate its axis rather than lean on a
# catch-all. The axis here is the memo's binding_level — this repository's own
# graded property, and the one that determines how costly a wrong bind is.
axis: binding_level
axis_source: decision-memo.schema.json#/properties/binding_level

# Total by enumeration, not by catch-all. Every value of the axis appears
# explicitly, plus the two non-value outcomes required to be distinguishable.
#
# Every stance is fail_closed, and that is a conclusion rather than a shortcut.
# ops-warden can justify fail_open on some zones because refusing removes
# production host access to close a documentation gap — a continuity argument.
# No such argument exists here. Refusing to render or to bind delays a decision;
# it does not remove a capability anyone depends on to keep a system running.
# Binding a human's identity to an act without an authorization decision is the
# precise failure this repository exists to prevent, so there is no level at
# which proceeding-without-a-decision is the safer error.

# v0.8 obligation 3 requires an absent scope to be DISTINGUISHABLE in the record
# from an unknown one. They resolve to the same stance here but must never be
# recorded as the same fact:
#   absent  — the memo carried no binding_level at all (a defect in the memo)
#   unknown — a binding_level was present but is not a value this map enumerates
#             (a version skew between memo and this map)
# Collapsing them would hide a schema-drift incident inside a malformed-input
# statistic.

    The approver is told the act could not be authorized and that nothing was
    bound. The surface never presents a fail_closed outcome as a decline by the
    approver: no disposition is recorded, because the human did not make one.

# GH-DEC-2026-010, inherited. Obligation 1 requires a decision be ATTRIBUTABLE to
# access-engine, and no consumer can satisfy that today — flex-auth's envelope is
# unsigned (declared §13 gap, FLEX-WP-0024). `decision_attributable` is therefore
# recorded as false and MUST NOT be reported as satisfied while that is open.

# §13.1 / GH-DEC-2026-011 — a dated classification-coverage figure beside the
# stance. Honest figure for a repository at spec stage: the axis is fully
# enumerated against the schema, and no protected action has shipped yet.

  as_of: "2026-09-09"

  note: >-
    Coverage is complete against the schema, not against production behaviour:
    nothing is deployed. Re-date this figure when the walking skeleton
    (INFD-WP-0001-T08) ships, and treat a coverage figure that predates a schema
    change as stale.
