Founder directive: ops-warden works with, never replaces or duplicates,
secrets-engine / tenant-engine / user-engine. Covering an unfilled gap is
acceptable only as a tracked interim with a named intended owner.
- INTENT §9 "Cover gaps, but never silently own them"; success criterion 7;
tenant-engine and user-engine added to the literacy table; non-goal on
permanently owning another component's lane
- WP-0030 (proposed): delegation: metadata, backfill, warden route gaps,
promotion gate, publish the register to owner repos
- history/2026-08-11-delegation-surface-assessment.md: 2 of 24 lanes carry
exec_owner; 11 proxies record no intended owner
- SCOPE refreshed to 2026-08-11 (was 6 workplans behind); completeness C5 -> C4

Founder directive 2026-07-18: agents ask ops-warden what a credential
need requires; the founder is escalated to only for policy-required
decisions/identity acts, preferably via a local web interaction surface
— never tasked with raw mechanics (UI clicks, /tmp file drops).
Organization posture 'build' becomes declared configuration. Workplan:
warden plan front door, posture declaration, warden desk, file-drop
retirement, catalog freshness + agent guidance.

Add unified metadata-only audit.jsonl with secret-material guard, instrument
sign/access/worker paths, and expose warden activity CLI. Surface broker hint
when VAULT_TOKEN is unset, refresh INTENT/SCOPE docs, and add production
integration checklists plus catalog lane promotion playbook.
- wiki/OperatorAccessAssist.md: warden access contract, conduit-vs-broker
boundary, the three guardrails + catalog secret guard, lane semantics.
- AccessRouting.md: issue/route/assist roles; reconciled the anti-pattern
table so the transparent conduit no longer contradicts it.
- credential-routing.md rule: added warden access + "standing broker
forbidden, transparent --fetch sanctioned" anti-pattern.
- INTENT.md: pointer→assist charter extension. SCOPE.md: implemented
list + Getting Oriented + maturity A4→A5 (Availability).
- history decision record for the proxy-mode choice and guardrails.
WP-0014 finished (T1–T5). 172 passed, lint clean.

Drop the "operational access desk" framing (and the rejected "coach"
metaphor) for plain language: ops-warden issues short-lived SSH certs and
routes every other credential need to its owner. SSH is the only lane it
executes.
Adds WARDEN-WP-0010/0011/0012 with a pointer-layer routing catalog that
points at owner docs rather than restating them, enforced structurally
(non-SSH entries carrying a steps block fail CI). Drops the scope-creep-prone
`check` command; hides unshipped-path scenarios as draft.

SCOPE.md now documents where we are (R3 production sign), INTENT criteria
status, maturity vector, and workplan landscape. Add reassessment history;
point INTENT evolution notes at latest assessment.
Add ops-warden INTENT as operational access steward for NetKingdom
security (route credential lanes, align docs, issue SSH certs only).
Refresh SCOPE for stewardship scope, persist INTENT↔SCOPE gap assessment,
and open WARDEN-WP-0006 for routing runbooks and platform alignment.
