Minted on a dedicated identity rather than a site admin. A PAT on
tegwick would have read every repository on the instance — wider than
the approved organisation-wide breadth and wider than the plan's stated
blast radius. Built as user state-hub-svc in team coulomb/state-hub-read
(read, all repositories, repo.code unit only), following the existing
issue-core-svc precedent. The ceiling is enforced by org membership, not
by a scope string, and clones are attributable to a named identity.
Delivered by warden desk --act paste_once_provision; ops-mason neither
minted nor pasted the value.
Verified: rapp-openbao, rapp-core-hub, rapp-issue-core and
rapp-policy-nexus all read — four of the nine that failed
STATE-WP-0083-T04. Push 403, admin API 403, /api/v1/user 403 (the scope
carries no read:user). Clone test used GIT_ASKPASS, so no credential
entered argv or a clone URL.
Records a deviation rather than glossing it: SCOPE.md puts secret values
out of scope, and that held for minting and delivery but not for
verification — the value was read back to fingerprint it and to run the
clone test, under the build-stage disclosure posture agreed 2026-08-27.

Policy workload-kv-read-state-hub-forge-derivation and Kubernetes auth
role state-hub-forge-derivation, verified both directions through a
2-minute test token that was revoked after use: read on its own path;
deny on forgejo-admin, on the shared llm-connect provider secrets, and
on the parent metadata path.
Kubernetes auth replaces the approved AppRole. The plan's §2 survey was
written from disk with no OpenBao session and could not see that
kubernetes/ auth is enabled on this cluster; the plan's own phase-4
instruction to re-verify against live state is what surfaced it. Ruled
by the founder at phase 4. No static credential is created, so nothing
has to be delivered into the cluster or rotated.
The live survey also re-checked reuse: workload-kv-read-agent-harness-
forgejo grants one repository deploy key, not organisation-wide read, so
§2's rejection of reuse stands.
ops-mason handled no secret value. The KV path does not exist until
paste_once_provision writes the token.

Plan approved 2026-08-26, breadth organisation-wide repository read. The
§4 contingency was satisfied first: STATE-WP-0084-T01 landed the same
day, so a missing grant now surfaces as a named unreadable condition
rather than as silence — which is what the breadth argument rested on.
T01 done. T03 drafted in ops-warden on a branch (entry + playbook +
regenerated high-risk artifact). T02 needs an operator: no valid OpenBao
session here, and the token is the forge owner's to mint.

Trim MASON-WP-0003 to T01-T03 — decide, build the AppRole/policy/KV path
structure, register the catalog entry — and route it through the
four-phase pipeline via plans/state-hub-forge-derivation-read.md, which
supplies the phase-3 executive summary the workplan was bypassing.
T02 no longer mints or holds the token value: SCOPE.md puts secret
values out of scope, so the forge owner mints and ops-warden's
paste_once_provision desk delivers.
Deployment plumbing, derive_from_forge(), and the fleet re-run move to
state-hub/STATE-WP-0084.

Two more real bugs found completing this lane for real:
1. platform-admin's own policy had no entry for the new reins/ mount --
the founder's paste-once-provision write 403'd because the admin
identity that created the mount was never granted access to operate
on it. Fixed live (added path "reins/*" matching every other mount
already in that policy).
2. _policy_hcl wrote the bare KV-v1-shaped path
(reins/rein-openweights/openrouter) instead of KV v2's data/+metadata/
sub-paths -- bao token capabilities on the bare path even reported
full access, but the actual kv get still 403'd, because OpenBao
evaluates the real request against the data/-prefixed path. Caught
when the AppRole's own read failed during live verification. Fixed
in code (now emits both data/ and metadata/ paths), locked in with a
dedicated unit test, and re-applied to the live policy.
Live end-to-end verification succeeded after both fixes: real AppRole
login, real KV v2 read via the corrected policy, real OpenRouter call,
real commit -- with OPENROUTER_API_KEY unset the whole time. Plan status:
catalogued. glas-harness/GLAS-WP-0002-T02 is closed by this.

Ran the whole approved pipeline against real OpenBao: created the reins/
KV v2 mount (after pausing for explicit founder confirmation -- a bigger
action than the executive summary's blast-radius framing disclosed),
the read-only policy, the AppRole, delivered role_id/secret_id. Caught
and fixed a real bug in the same pass: built with token_num_uses=0
(OpenBao's default = unlimited) instead of the plan's own stated 8;
fixed live and removed the executor's silently-permissive default so it
can't recur. Catalog entry proposed and merged in ops-warden (c0a50bc).
Corrected a real misreading in this repo's own INTENT.md along the way:
pointer fields (auth_method/fetch_command/rotation.steps) are normal on
non-SSH catalog entries; only a bare top-level steps:+cert_command:
pair is SSH-only -- verified against ops-warden's real entries and its
full test suite (326 tests, green).
Plan status: built. Catalog entry status: draft until the founder's
paste-once-provision and glas-harness/GLAS-WP-0002-T02's live
verification succeed.

status: approved, approved_by: Bernd Worsch, approved_at: 2026-07-27.
Verified against the real executor code: ConstructionPlan.load(...)
.is_approved() returns True for this file. MASON-WP-0001-T05 moves from
todo to wait -- the approval gate is cleared, phase 4 execution is
blocked only on a real OpenBao session existing somewhere (bao token
lookup still 403 from this workstation).

docs/review-optimize-checklist.md: six checks (naming, TTL/scoping,
redundancy, compaction, ease of use, posture), applied for real to the
rein-openweights plan's section 4 -- including a genuinely useful
finding (credentials.py already expects this exact path/delivery shape,
zero code changes needed to consume it).
docs/executive-summary-format.md: six fixed fields, no bao syntax, no
restating earlier sections, explicit approve/reject/revise decision.
Rendered for real into the plan's section 5 -- ready for an actual
decision.
src/ops_mason/{plan,executor,audit}.py: the phase-4 build executor for
credential_type openbao-approle-kv. Refuses to run against anything but
an approved plan -- verified the refusal never even calls subprocess.run.
role_id/secret_id (the AppRole's own access credential, not the
downstream secret) land as 0600 files, never logged; the HCL policy
goes over stdin, never argv; the audit trail is metadata-only. 12 tests,
all mocked at the bao boundary (no live OpenBao access from this
session).

docs/construction-plan-format.md: one file per plan (plans/<id>.md),
frontmatter status tracker (draft -> reviewed -> approved -> built ->
catalogued, the phase-4 hard gate), six body sections threading all
four phases through one document.
Proven against real demand: plans/rein-openweights-openrouter-approle.md,
phases 1-2 filled in. Found and reasoned through a real existing-structure
question along the way -- the openrouter-llm-connect catalog lane could
technically be reused, but its auth_method is interactive-caller-shaped
and its policy is shared/high-risk; recommends a dedicated, narrowly
scoped AppRole instead, same reasoning agent-harness-binky-mail used for
its own dedicated lane.
