Inbox triage (ADHOC-2026-08-17), three messages, all answered and marked read.
flex-auth (FLEX-WP-0015 T02) reported that /v1/check and /v1/batch_check
authenticate no caller — any workload with cluster reach can assert any subject
and get an authoritative allow. It lands here because ops-warden owns workload
identity in this estate and its pre-sign gate is a flex-auth PEP.
Recommendation recorded in wiki/NetKingdomSecurityMap.md: Kubernetes
ServiceAccount TokenReview with a projected, audience-scoped token. Rejected the
shared-secret header — it manufactures a risk: high lane with a rotation owner
per caller on the authorization path, the exact interim-proxy debt WP-0030
exists to stop growing. Deferred mTLS pending an owner for a workload X.509 CA.
Bind `system` to the authenticated SA at auth time, but keep the resource-type
allowlist in the policy package rather than the admission layer. Warn-only
rollout; policy.enabled must not flip while /v1/check answers unauthenticated
callers. Recorded as a pattern, not a catalog entry.
Catalog delegation refreshes:
- coulomb-social-runtime-env: USER_ENGINE_PROXY_SECRET ownership settled
(decision 8fe22037, USER-WP-0021) — intended_owner stays railiance-apps,
answered clause dropped from blocked_on, consumers: [user-engine] recorded.
- rapp-qonto-keycape-client: blocked_on no longer implies an in-flight
KEY-WP-0008 dependency; the key-cape-native exchange command is unopened work.
uv run pytest -q → 338 passed, 4 deselected.

Implements WARDEN-WP-0010 (charter + pointer catalog). ops-warden issues
short-lived SSH certificates and routes every other credential need to the
subsystem that owns it — no desk metaphor, one execution lane.
- wiki/AccessRouting.md: role/boundary, issue-vs-route matrix, anti-patterns
- registry/routing/catalog.yaml: machine-readable pointer layer (6 active + 1
draft). No-double-source rule enforced structurally — authored steps/cert_command
only on the warden_executes:true SSH entry; every wiki_ref anchor resolves
- wiki/CredentialRouting.md: catalog-keyed index + no-duplicate-interfaces note
- INTENT/SCOPE/AGENTS/repo-boundary/capability: aligned to the new framing;
SCOPE notes A3 -> A4 lands with WP-0011 warden route CLI
- WP-0011/0012 + WP-0010: state_hub id writeback; WP-0010 marked done
