Revert the npm field, re-measure coverage, and hold the layer divergence

Five inbox items worked, none of which changed a credential value or moved a
secret.

whynot-design-npm-publish: field reverted npm_token -> NPM_AUTH_TOKEN and the
path confirmed, on railiance-platform's attended, read-only, no-value field
enumeration (their docs/evidence/2026-09-10-npm-lane-field-resolution.json).
Exactly one field is present at the governed path. The 2026-09-09 change was
adopted from a coordination message and would have failed at the WP-0037-T03
rotation. The ungoverned second location is recorded as an explicit non-lane,
not deleted and not tidied away.

pep-stance coverage: published figures were stale by eight lanes (unknown
18->20, not_applicable 12->15) while resolved stayed at 3 — the denominator
moved, the classification did not. Caught by the test that asserts the published
block equals what report_coverage.py measures. tests/test_workload_join.py held
the same stale counts; both now measure the same populations.

rapp-qonto-keycape-client: blocker character updated — authority exists and is
unexercised by owner decision ("not yet", offer open), which is not the same as
no authority existing. Reopen triggers are events, never elapsed time.

flex-auth -> access-engine rename (WARDEN-IN-0003): access-engine added to the
policy-check lane's keywords so routing resolves under both names from today.
owner_repo deliberately not flipped — policy.py sends it as resource.system on
every /v1/check, and FLEX-DEC-2026-013 keeps runtime names as flex-auth.

layer declaration: INTENT.md says Staff, layer.yaml says staff, section 11 does
not say which governs. Neither changed; gate-house holds the ruling. Position in
docs/layer-declaration-precedence.md, wait in WARDEN-WP-0034-T06, and a comment
in layer.yaml telling the next session not to "fix" it — the divergence is the
evidence the ruling is made against.
