+Update the owning smoke evidence and close or narrow CSOC-IN-0001 and
+CSOC-IN-0002 now that NK-WP-0025 completed the public registration, OIDC/JIT,
+repeat-login, collision, redirect, and assurance evidence.

+
+Add focused regression coverage for the canonical LDAP-DN OIDC subject and
+the reverse normalization used by directory lifecycle and password setup.
+
+## Persist the audit-core multi-tenant sender scope
+
+```task

+```
+
+Move the live `user-engine` sender registry from its manually minted Secret to
+the authoritative OpenBao/ExternalSecret path with source-bound write-only
+scope and `tenants: ["*"]`, without reading or logging its token.
+
+2026-08-14 probe: the live Secret has the correct redacted scope, but
+`platform/workloads/audit-core/senders` does not exist. ClusterSecretStore
+`openbao-audit-core` is present and can read only that exact path. The current
+workstation OpenBao identity returns 403 and credential routing exposes no
+resolvable write grant. Completion therefore waits for a short-lived
+platform-admin OpenBao session to perform the documented wrapped migration;
+the temporary probe ExternalSecret was removed.
