Two estate repos now own things ops-warden had been handling in-repo by
default. New rule .claude/rules/finding-routing.md, wired into CLAUDE.md.
The correction it encodes: on 2026-08-17 flex-auth reported a live
authorization bypass directly to ops-warden — in the service our own pre-sign
gate consults. We answered the design question and wrote the recommendation
into wiki/NetKingdomSecurityMap.md, and did not route the finding.
rapp-postgres filed it, which is why RISK-F-0001 reads
reported_via: rapp-postgres despite ops-warden being a first-hand recipient
and the affected PEP. That is the exact failure risk-nexus/INTENT names:
findings landing in whichever document was open. A wiki section answers a
question; it carries no severity, owner, date, or review that fires when
nobody looks. Answering and routing are not alternatives.
Also recorded: the delegation register is explicitly NOT a findings feed
(risk-nexus wants a register small enough to read); severity/disclosure/
escalation stay unset when we route, because the reporter says what is true
and that repo says how bad it is; and a blocker is a claim about the world at
a date — RISK-F-0001 invalidated one of ours in a day.
Offers warden plan (WP-0029) to risk-nexus for its unwritten escalation duty:
a shipped classifier for what must reach the operator personally, decided by
properties rather than instinct, carrying reasons and a typed act.
Flags but does not close the policy-nexus gap: ops-warden has no ADRs, yet
carries rules that govern other repos (no-double-source, conduit-not-broker,
interim-by-default, agent read-boundary). They sit in wiki prose and are
therefore unpublishable and uncitable. Structural call, left to the operator.
