Claim ownership of the browser-facing approver UI that approval-engine
deliberately does not contain. approval-engine's INTENT names an approvals
inbox under Non-Goals, and docs/keycape-service-registrations.md records that
the human approver client's client_id and callback URI "must come from its
owner once it exists" — leaving key-cape's KEY-WP-0013-T02 blocked on an
unassigned component.

- INTENT.md: Decision Memo concept, the binding/awareness split and the two
  hashes, ownership and non-ownership against the named estate repositories,
  and a provisional PEP-shaped layer placement flagged for a gate-house ruling
  rather than asserted.
- GOAL.md: Stage 1 is the L3 approval approver surface — the narrowest real
  consumer with a live blocking dependency — plus the written answer to who
  owns the approver UI.
- workplans/INFD-WP-0001: founding documents, the gate-house layer/ownership
  ruling, the four specs (PRD, UseCaseCatalog, ArchitectureBlueprint,
  EvidenceModel), schema and canonicalizer promotion out of history/ with the
  isolation vectors under test, the key-cape client registration, and a
  walking skeleton that includes return and discuss.

history/ is preserved unmodified as provenance.

informed-decision

User interface for executive decisions, modelled as a sign-and-return book — the German Umlaufmappe / Zeichnungsbuch, made cryptographic.

A Decision Memo carries a question, the context needed to answer it, the requested act, and a binding between identity, what was shown, and what was bound. The promise is not "the file was signed" but "this person, in this role, was shown this view, and bound this act."

One object model from a ten-second login (L0) to a multi-party instrument (L5).

Stage 1

Own the browser-facing approver UI that approval-engine deliberately does not contain, and answer in writing who owns it. approval-engine is a bearer-token resource server with no browser client; key-cape (KEY-WP-0013-T02) is waiting on a client_id and callback URI that no component has claimed. This repository claims them.

See GOAL.md.

Boundaries

This repository renders questions and records answers. It does not decide (access-engine), does not own the approval object (approval-engine), does not author approval doctrine (gate-house), does not authenticate anyone (key-cape), and does not archive the trail (audit-core).
