Source: ops-warden inbox message 0dd9c7bd-0ecd-42d1-806f-7cc4ba9730ed. The native service exchange and public PKCE login commands are now implemented. Cross-owner rotation and consumer-specific route cutover remain outstanding.

Review ops-warden's existing key-cape-oidc-login proxy and rapp-qonto-keycape-client route contracts. Specify the native interactive login and bounded exchange commands, token delivery, renewal and custody-mediated rotation before implementation. Keep secret custody with OpenBao and avoid retiring the proxy until replacement commands have equivalent verification.

Ops-warden reports KEY-WP-0009-T04's claimed reply did not arrive. Verify prior receipts for all four named recipients before claiming successful notification. No outbound coordination messages were sent during the 2026-09-05 repo review.

Implement and verify native caller commands

Implemented keycape service-token and login with HTTPS discovery, RS256/JWKS verification, exact audience bindings, PKCE/state/nonce, private out-of-Git file delivery and redacted errors. Service Basic authentication now form-decodes credentials. Integration tests exercise the real token/JWKS handlers and browser callback, including forged state, tampering, excess scope and unsafe output. See docs/native-authentication.md for invocation and ownership boundaries.

Admit rotation and verify consumer handoff

Qonto rotation requires admitted custody/provider transaction and rollback semantics; see the exact review sequence in docs/native-authentication.md. The current login proxy yields an OpenBao token, so it cannot be replaced by a JWT-writing command without adapting its consumer contract. Verify that split with the platform owner and ops-warden before route changes. No route was changed.

2026-09-05 receipt audit: GET /messages/?from_agent=key-cape returned one 2026-03 image-publication message and no KEY-WP-0009 handoff receipts for NetKingdom, secrets-engine, ops-warden or railiance-platform. Corrected the unsupported statement in KEY-WP-0009-T04. This proves only that no receipts are present in the current Hub response, not that no message ever existed. The 2026-09-05 audit's finding stands as recorded; the replacement outbound messages were sent on 2026-09-08 (below).

2026-09-08: 0a6c9d88-cf50-45d8-acdc-99a40747683e -> ops-warden, readable back via GET /messages/?from_agent=key-cape. It puts both open questions to the route and custody owner in one place:

1. The key-cape-oidc-login proxy yields an OpenBao token and keycape login yields an issuer JWT — different credential types, different verifiers, different enforcement owners, so not interchangeable. Two admissible options are offered: keep the proxy and run keycape login alongside it for JWT consumers, or adapt the route's consumer contract to a JWT and then cut over. Option (a) is recommended until every consumer of the route is enumerated.
2. Qonto rotation for rapp-qonto-keycape-client, quoting the five-step reviewed sequence from docs/native-authentication.md and asking who executes the successor generation and CAS update, in which transport, under what authority. It records that warden route/warden plan returned no exact admitted lane and that a generic match is not being treated as authorization.

The KEY-WP-0009 handoff ops-warden reported missing has also now been delivered (5bc58847-eed5-4164-bb0f-a0d8455e75b8), closing the KEY-WP-0014-T02 correction.

Task remains wait — no route was changed and no rotation command ships until ops-warden answers (1) and an execution/rollback authority is admitted for (2).
