Align approval registrations to the tenant:platform decision
Operator decision 5ed3fb35-eca9-413a-82b9-95171ba85bf6 accepts tenant:platform
as the platform management tenant for the Glas approval chain, requiring exact
spelling across the approval store, the service-client JWT claim and the
lifecycle CheckRequest.

Changes the tenant field on secrets-engine-approval and approval-engine-operator
only, in the registration fixture and the provisioning packet. Unrelated clients
and the human directory default keep tenant:coulomb, and no audience, scope,
subject, role, lifetime or MFA grant changes.

Adds issuance evidence that the approval shape emits tenant:platform exactly and
never an alias the caller requests, that the OpenBao client gains no
cross-tenant reach, and a fixture guard pinning every reviewed client's tenant.

Source: approval-engine inbox request 5583e896-52f2-45bd-895f-02f227b7e836,
reviewed against its local registration and caller-authentication contracts.
## Implement static resource audiences
```task
id: KEY-WP-0013-T01
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "a92432a2-4e92-5b90-be2b-d82b784bf8f0"
```
Added optional static audience configuration for access tokens in both grants;
ID tokens retain the relying-party audience. Added human access-token scope.
Published bounded approval service fragments and the human registration contract.
Regression tests cover the default audience, request override resistance, JWKS
signature validation, ID-token separation and service registration scope isolation.
Browser requests and token exchanges now enforce the client scope allow-list,
including grants removed after authorization.
## Provision and prove live registrations
```task
id: KEY-WP-0013-T02
status: wait
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "607897c5-bad9-55e5-86df-7802f592d6e8"
```
Needs deployment-owned custody for both new secret references and an exact human
callback registration. Deploy the implementation and registrations together,
then prove live JWKS verification and denied excess scopes without logging values.
Local signature proof is not live rollout evidence. See docs/approval-engine-auth-contract.md.
2026-09-05 follow-up: read-only deployment metadata shows the current image is
forgejo.coulomb.social/coulomb/key-cape:main-153258b and only the Qonto service
secret environment reference is present. The two approval clients are not
materialized through deployment environment references. Published a concrete
non-secret admission packet at docs/approval-engine-provisioning-request.yaml.
Custody routing has no exact admitted lane for these two clients. `warden plan`
returned founder_required but matched an unrelated generic database lane; that
mismatch is not authority to provision. Human callback clarification is pending.
No secrets were read or production resources changed.
## Reconcile tenant vocabularies across approval layers

(GLAS-WP-0015), which asks for the exact store tenant, JWT tenant, CheckRequest
tenant, any permitted mapping and wrong-tenant denial evidence.
Published `docs/tenant-claim-contract.md`. The KeyCape-owned JWT tenant for all
four reviewed service registrations is `tenant:coulomb`, bound at registration
and required by config validation. Approval store `platform` and policy
`tenant:platform` are owned by approval-engine and flex-auth; KeyCape performs no
normalization or aliasing, so exact comparison does not match today. No mapping
was invented and no live registration or policy subject was changed — the two
admissible resolutions are recorded for the owning parties to decide.
Added `src/internal/server/oidc/tenant_test.go`: request-supplied `tenant` and
`tenant_hint` cannot alter the claim; two registrations never carry each other's
tenant (the wrong-tenant denial basis); human tokens default to `tenant:coulomb`
rather than an empty claim. Local issuance proof only, not live-rollout evidence.
## Align approval registrations to tenant:platform
```task

Source: glas-harness inbox message f487c63a-dd7e-4ad8-9188-eec9fbea59c6,
operator decision 5ed3fb35-eca9-413a-82b9-95171ba85bf6 ("Use tenant:platform for
the Glas approval dependency chain", verified resolved in the hub). This closed
resolution 2 of the two options recorded in KEY-WP-0013-T03.
Changed the `tenant` field on exactly `secrets-engine-approval` and
`approval-engine-operator` in `config/service-clients.example.yaml` and the two
matching entries in `docs/approval-engine-provisioning-request.yaml` to
`tenant:platform`, each annotated with the decision id. `codex-railiance-platform`,
`secrets-engine-openbao` and the human directory default keep `tenant:coulomb`.
No audience, scope, subject, role, lifetime or MFA change; no cross-tenant grant.
Evidence: `TestApprovalClientIssuesExactPlatformTenantAndRejectsAliases` (exact
`tenant:platform` with `aud=approval-engine` even when the caller requests
`platform`, `tenant:coulomb` or `TENANT:PLATFORM`),
`TestUnrelatedServiceClientKeepsCoulombTenant`, and
`TestServiceRegistrationTenantsAreExactPerDecision`, which pins every reviewed
client's tenant against the real fixture so a reintroduced alias fails the build.
Full `go test ./...` and `go vet ./...` pass. Choice only — live provisioning and
the other admission gates remain with KEY-WP-0013-T02.
