zone-engine is seeded and owns the security zone model as ZONE-WP-0001. Under
ADR-0005 ops-warden implements one lane narrowly and routes the rest, and an
estate-wide enforcement model is not a lane to absorb — it was ops-warden's
deferred flip that exposed the gap, not ops-warden's model to define.
WARDEN-WP-0032 is rewritten as the consumer side: hand the estate inputs to
ZONE-WP-0001-T02 (27 catalog lanes, the actor inventory, the three posture axes,
the three controls the model must express, and the compiled-registry path),
then replace policy.enabled with a zone-aware control and amend ADR-0006 to say
ops-warden follows the model rather than owning it.
ADR-0006 and SCOPE updated to point at zone-engine, which joins the related
repositories table.

Expands the placeholder into a real plan, grounded in what the estate already
has rather than first principles:
- tenancy-posture_v0.1 is the structural model to follow (canon standard +
per-repo declaration + "accuracy, not altitude"), and its §14 adoption stance
is "structure, not tooling" — a precedent about sequencing.
- Reefs are substrate placement zones with real risk statements. A security
zone is not a reef; repo-manager's own "topology is not readiness" applies
here as "placement is not posture".
- flex-auth is latency-critical and already consumes a compiled registry
snapshot, so zone membership should reach the PDP by compilation rather than
a synchronous lookup in the decision path.
- warden plan already returns verdicts with reasons; zone-aware enforcement
extends that machinery instead of growing a parallel one.
T01 settles ownership before any modelling, because it decides which repo the
rest lives in: canon standard, a zone-engine runtime authority, or flex-auth
policy data. The recommendation is canon-first with zone-engine named as an
explicit promotion — but the time-boxed refactor exception is the case that
could justify an engine immediately, since an expiring grant is state and state
wants an owner.

flex-auth enforced its ops-warden pin (FLEX-WP-0016 T03) and the gate verified
clean against it: readiness exits 0, decision:f3f7c88f9585582a, anonymous
/v1/check now 401. Everything needed to set policy.enabled: true was in place.
It stays false, by decision. policy.enabled is a single repo-wide boolean, and
with fail_closed: true it makes flex-auth a hard dependency of every warden
sign — including the certs the ops-bridge tunnels depend on, one of which
carries the policy call itself. Uniform enforcement across an estate being
actively rebuilt hardens the access needed to perform the rebuild.
The repo already refuses one-dimensional posture: WP-0015 shipped environment
and maturity axes, WP-0029 added organization_posture. A global flag ignores all
three. ADR-0006 records that enforcement belongs to a zone, and binds future
work — a zone-blind enforcement flag is out of order, not merely unwise.
WARDEN-WP-0032 drafts the zone model, leading with the ownership question:
whether this is ops-warden's to own or NetKingdom canon to consume (ADR-0005).
WP-0031 is finished with T05 cancelled and resuming as WP-0032-T05.
Also replaces the hand-run kubectl port-forward with a managed ops-bridge
tunnel, flex-auth-ops-warden-railiance01 (-L 19090:10.43.1.165:8080).
