The security layer model moved v0.1 -> v0.4 (accepted) after ops-warden's
assent. Both §5 asks from ADR-0010 were adopted: §5.2 now sanctions the conduit
shape on the supplied-authority property, and §5.3 is the declared engine gap
amendment, carrying the four fields verbatim and crediting ops-warden's
delegation machinery as prior art.
Which creates an obligation. §5.3 requires those fields MACHINE-READABLY, and
§11 makes "every direct Tooling client maps to a declared §5.1/§5.2/§5.3 entry"
a mechanical check. ops-warden's declaration was prose in INTENT.md — the repo
that proposed the shape was not implementing it.
layer.yaml is the map: 5 contacts (2 declared gaps, 1 read-only observation,
2 conduits) plus the non-Tooling clients recorded explicitly so the check is
total rather than silently selective.
scripts/check_layer_conformance.py enforces it and found three undeclared
modules on its first run — all false positives (help text, a docstring, and the
doubles library that SIMULATES bao rather than calling it), which is why the
scan now matches invocation shapes instead of the word: an httpx call built
against the configured OpenBao address, or an argv whose first element is the
bao binary.
tests/test_layer_conformance.py adds the §5.2 test the standard says SHOULD
exist: _caller_env() returns the caller's environment unchanged, and proxy.py
is asserted not to reference X-Vault-Token, approle login, or token create — a
conduit that presents its own token is not a conduit.
No assertion on review dates, deliberately: a date-triggered failure breaks the
build on a calendar day with no code change, the same reasoning WP-0033-T05
recorded for blocker staleness.
398 tests pass, ruff clean.

c374d41 added net-kingdom-lldap-bind-credential and
net-kingdom-privacyidea-admin-token as `risk: high` and did not re-run the
emitter, so registry/generated/high-risk-data-paths.yaml still described the
catalog at 0fae090. railiance-platform consumes that file instead of
hand-maintaining its deny list, and it has been reading a census two lanes short
since 2026-08-23.
This is precisely the drift WARDEN-WP-0033-T03 built the guard for — a lane
graded high after the last emit silently failing to reach the consumer. The
guard fired; nothing had acted on it.
The deny list itself does not move: both lanes are blocked on their OpenBao path
being published, so they land in `no_concrete_path` and concrete_path_count
stays 14. What changes is the count the consumer sees — 23 high-risk lanes, two
of which have no address yet. That is the honest signal and the reason the
bucket is listed rather than omitted.
check_agent_read_boundary.py still reports 0 uncovered.
The workload-join census moves 9 -> 11 not-applicable: both lanes are
provider/control-plane credentials rather than workload delivery lanes.

risk-nexus accepted the offer to match their convention rather than grow a second
one, and published it: 14d critical/high, 30d medium, 60d low, nothing auto-closing
on staleness alone. Their preference — point warden route gaps at those windows and
the two registers agree without a shared mechanism — is better than a joint tool.
blocker_stale_days() now maps lane risk onto those windows. A flat 14 would have
been wrong in both directions: too aggressive for a low-risk pointer, and it treated
an admin PAT lane the same as one.
ungraded takes the shortest window, not the longest. ADR-0007 makes an absent grade
a defect and ADR-0008 makes a grade cover the whole path, so a lane nobody graded is
the one whose blocker deserves least trust. Encoding that as 60 days would have been
the fail-open default this repo already fixed once.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The 90-day --stale-days default on `warden route gaps` was not a loose threshold,
it was an inert one: the delegation register was created 2026-08-15, so it could
not have fired before November. It was inherited from the catalog pointer cadence
and applied to a claim with a completely different half-life.
Two changes. DEFAULT_BLOCKER_STALE_DAYS = 14 now governs interim blockers, while
DEFAULT_STALE_DAYS = 90 keeps governing pointer freshness -- "is this the right
owner and page" is quarterly, "has the owner answered" is not. 14 is calibrated
on blockers that actually cost something: ten days for the secrets-engine lanes,
one for RISK-F-0001, roughly fifty for FLEX-WP-0007.
The second change matters more. `reviewed` records when someone touched an entry,
which is indistinguishable from re-checking it -- six lanes read as freshly
reviewed today because I typed in them. `verified:` now says how the claim was
established, and asked-and-waiting explicitly does NOT count: that is the state
the secrets-engine blocker sat in for ten days while looking current. A lane in
that state is stale at zero days old, and key-cape-oidc-login proves it works.
8 of 14 interim lanes are honestly marked unverified rather than given a fresh
date they did not earn.
--fail-on-stale exits 3 for a cron or gate. No CI test on age: a date-triggered
failure breaks the build for whoever commits next instead of whoever owns the
blocker. The CI test is structural -- every interim lane must record how it was
verified -- so it fails on the commit that introduces the omission.

test_catalog_gaps_lists_only_interim asserted openbao-api-key was an interim
cover. It encoded the same classification the entry did, so it defended the
wrong answer rather than catching it -- the second time this session a test has
held a judgement still (see ADR-0008).
The staleness test added in T03 did its job on the first real change: it failed
the moment the catalog moved without the generated artifact being re-emitted.

railiance-platform asked for a generated list to consume instead of hand-
maintaining agent-high-risk-boundary. Hand-maintaining it is what let the two
lists drift for four lanes in RISK-F-0009.
19 high-risk lanes, 14 concrete data paths, 5 without a single KV address listed
separately so absence does not read as omission. Carries catalog_revision and a
dirty flag. fields is null where unestablished, never a one-element guess.
The header states plainly that this is an input and not a policy: railiance-
platform owns the deny set and may deny more, less, or dispute a grade. ADR-0002
survives the handoff.
Two CI tests guard staleness, because a consumer applies this to a live control.
Note the immediate consequence of T02: 2 uncovered against a policy they closed
to 0 yesterday.

secrets-engine reviewed our catalog metadata while drafting their five entries
and graded issue-core-ingestion-api-key and reuse-surface-hub-write-token high.
We had both as standard, and had deliberately regraded them DOWN on 2026-08-19.
They are right. Both paths carry a second credential our grade never looked at --
GITEA_BACKEND_TOKEN (CCR-2026-0002, a deliberate field-set decision) and a
dual-consumer webhook HMAC (CCR-2026-0005). Neither is recovered by rotating the
credential the lane is named after.
The defect is structural: we graded the lane by its headline field, but a read
returns every field at the path. Worse, the evidence was already in the CCRs we
cite as authoritative -- not missing, unread -- and a test asserted the wrong
answer, so a correct first-pass grade got overruled by it.
ADR-0008 records the rule: a grade covers every field its path discloses.
ADR-0007 is unchanged and still governs; this says what the grade is of.
Six of the remaining standard lanes have no KV path. Two have paths and no field
evidence; per ADR-0008 they are stated as unknown rather than assumed, and left
for operator-sanctioned grading.

The operator token was not expired after all -- `bao policy read` succeeded, so
the deployed policy is now compared directly instead of the file. Three
corrections to RISK-F-0009, which was filed static:
1. Six high-risk lanes are uncovered, not eight. The finding counted
openbao-api-key (a path pattern) and ops-warden-warden-sign-token (a broker
grant, not KV) among the concrete uncovered paths, while its own prose said
the first was a pattern. Five lanes have no address for a policy to deny.
2. Coverage holds at 6 of 17 against the live policy.
3. The deployed policy has drifted from the file: the file denies
platform/workloads/core-hub/runtime, the server does not. No ops-warden lane
maps there so our numbers are unchanged, but it proves the file was never a
safe proxy for the server -- which is what the finding flagged as unconfirmed.
scripts/check_agent_read_boundary.py is the invariant RISK-F-0009 asked for
rather than a one-off audit: it fails when a high-risk lane has no corresponding
deny. Capabilities-only by construction -- it reads the policy document, never a
secret value, and never mints a token.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The mechanism behind RISK-F-0003 was sharper than the finding described.
is_high_risk was risk == "high", but risk was never absent at the model layer:
RouteEntry.risk carried a dataclass default of "standard". An omitted grade was
not unhandled, it was actively resolved to the permissive value — fail-open by
construction, which is why nothing ever warned.
The default is now "ungraded" and is_high_risk returns true for anything outside
an explicit low-risk vocabulary (standard / low / accepted). An omitted grade and
an unrecognised grade from a newer catalog both resolve to high, so the boundary
fails safe in both directions rather than reading an unknown value as permission.
test_every_repo_catalog_lane_is_explicitly_graded is the CI gate that stops an
ungraded lane being committed, per ADR-0007: absence is not a grade.
"accepted" is in the low-risk vocabulary deliberately, ready for the
maturity-derived default — an experimental-context lane may be explicitly
accepted, which is a graded decision rather than an omission.

flex-auth's flex-auth-ops-warden pin (FLEX-WP-0016) TokenReviews the caller and
binds resource.system: ops-warden to system:serviceaccount:ops-warden:ops-warden.
policy.py posted /v1/check with no Authorization header, so the pin logs
"caller authentication warning" and can only run callerAuth.mode: warn — which,
under ADHOC-2026-08-17-T01, is exactly what blocks policy.enabled: true.
- policy.caller_auth (none | file | env | command) + src/warden/caller_identity.py:
token resolved per call, never cached, written, or logged (ADR-0002)
- both check_sign_policy and check_fetch_policy attach the bearer header; an
unobtainable token fails closed rather than retrying anonymously
- scripts/check_policy_caller_identity.py: read-only gate, prints length and a
truncated fingerprint only, distinguishes 401 (audience/binding) from 403
- example config: caller_auth block, and flex_auth_url corrected — it pointed at
flex-auth.flex-auth.svc, a Service that does not exist
- WARDEN-WP-0031, PolicyGatedSigning caller-identity section and flip sequence
Default stays mode: none, so behaviour is unchanged until an operator opts in.

Every execution position is now explicit. Catalog entries carry
delegation.mode (permanent / native / interim) with intended owner and
blocker. warden route gaps lists the interim set. Promotion requires
the ownership question. Doctrine lives in AccessRouting.md; the
register was published to the named owner repos.
Ship posture-aware access planning: organization_posture=build (axis C),
catalog freshness warnings, warden plan verdicts, localhost founder desk,
and playbook/agent guidance that retire /tmp file-drop patterns.
Compose route catalog + handoff rather than a second routing layer.
- warden/mask.py: fingerprint()/mask_value() — presence, length, 8-char sha256
prefix; never the value.
- proxy.proxy_fetch_fingerprint + `warden access --fingerprint`: masked status view
(presence/length/hash) that emits no value, so it bypasses the T02 stdout guard.
Lets two parties compare sha256 prefixes to confirm a shared value without seeing
it (e.g. rotation landed).
- documented as defense-in-depth (raw bao bypasses it) in OperatorAccessAssist.md
and the module docstring.
- tests: tests/test_mask.py + CLI fingerprint test. 299 pass.

RAILIANCE-WP-0011-T03: point reuse-surface-hub-write-token catalog,
playbook, and tests at bao kv get on platform/workloads/reuse/reuse-surface/runtime-secrets;
kubectl documented as break-glass only.
resolve_fetch_command used shlex.split, which treated `|` as a literal
argument — breaking reuse-surface-hub-write-token (kubectl | base64 -d).
Piped commands now run via shell=True with inherited stdio for --fetch.
REUSE_SURFACE_TOKEN is custody of the Railiance01 K8s secret reuse-surface-env,
not OpenBao. Workers blocked on hub register can now discover the lane via
warden route find and obtain it through the documented kubectl handoff.
Load coordination memory by default via ensure_memory_context on app bootstrap
and route/access flows; invalidate cache after episode writes. WARDEN_MEMORY=0
remains the opt-out. Document that warden memory activate is optional only.
RAILIANCE-WP-0009 T06 / RAILIANCE-WP-0010 T06 (CCR-2026-0002, CCR-2026-0003):
both OpenBao KV paths are live, ESO delivers the Secrets in cluster, and
positive/negative access verification is audit-logged. Catalog entries gain
concrete zero-placeholder handoffs (exec_capable, resolvable); draft tables
and playbook gates updated; routing tests repointed to still-draft lanes.

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.
Document the railiance-platform credential broker as the owner-native path
for scoped VAULT_TOKEN needs. Add catalog entry, playbook, and doc updates
so warden route find ranks the broker lane first; manual export remains a
documented fallback only.
T4 (review→send loop): conservative tick persists structured drafts to
state_dir/worker-drafts.json; `warden worker drafts` lists them, `warden worker approve
<id> [--body …]` sends the reviewed draft as the reply + marks read + drops it. Escalated
plans persist no draft. Live-verified end-to-end.
T3 (visibility): `warden worker status` (pending drafts, triage count, last digest, timer
state); best-effort notify-send nudge in the tick when drafts are pending.
T5: wiki/playbooks/scheduled-worker.md (enable/disable, the approve loop, failure modes,
conservative-only posture) + SCOPE note.
WARDEN-WP-0021 finished: the conservative worker now runs on a systemd --user timer
(enabled, every 15 min), triages new inbox messages into drafts you approve with one
command, degrades gracefully, and stops with one command. 249 tests, lint clean.

Per Bernd's call: the guardrails prevent security harm but not LLM content errors, so the
worker should triage + draft, not auto-send, until reply quality is proven (matches the
build-stage/recoverability posture).
run_conservative triages NEW messages into a reviewed digest (state_dir/worker-digest.md)
with drafted replies, posts ONE progress note, tracks seen message ids (schedule-safe
dedup), and sends NOTHING to other agents / marks nothing read. `warden worker run
--execute` now runs this conservative tier; `--full-auto` opts into the auto-send path.
Live-verified with the LLM brain on the real inbox: produced a high-quality draft reply to
a secrets-engine coordination message and correctly flagged the llm-connect custody request
as NEEDS YOU. Conservative mode is safe to schedule (T4). 244 tests, lint clean.

HubClient gains writes (mark_read, send_reply, add_progress). execute_plan/execute_plans
run the safe, allowlisted actions autonomously: route_answer (reply with the computed
answer + auto mark-read), reply (LLM-drafted body), progress_note, mark_read. Escalated
plans and non-auto-executable kinds are left for a human; every action is metadata-only
(no secret value read/sent/logged).
Deliberate guardrail: propose_catalog_diff and any code/routing change is NOT auto-executed
even under full-auto — a bad catalog commit could misroute credentials, so it goes to human
review (recoverability over convenience). AUTO_EXECUTABLE is the messaging/hub tier only.
`warden worker run --execute` runs the executor (dry-run still default). 7 executor tests
(reply+mark, with/without body, escalated skip, catalog-diff-left-for-human, progress,
failure-without-crash); 243 pass, lint clean. First live --execute shakedown is the
operator's (staged rollout); T4 schedules it.

llm-connect is operational (operator set OPENROUTER_API_KEY). Contract discovered from
the running service: POST /execute {"prompt":...} -> {"content":...}.
LlmConnectBrain embeds the fixed charter + the inbox message as untrusted data, calls
/execute, and parses a JSON action plan (_extract_json tolerates fences/prose), escalating
defensively on malformed/empty/transport errors. The build_plans guardrail still enforces
the allowlist + no-secret invariant on whatever the model returns — the LLM cannot widen
ops-warden's authority. `warden worker run --brain rule|llm` selects the planner.
Live-verified on the real inbox: the LLM brain planned a sensible reply+mark_read for a
secrets-engine coordination message and correctly escalated a secret-custody request as
out-of-lane — better classification than the deterministic RuleBrain.
6 new tests, 236 pass, lint clean. T3 (guarded executor) and T4 (scheduling) remain.

build_plans now computes the concrete routing answer for each route_answer action
in-process (reuses the catalog; read-only, no subprocess/network) and render_plans
shows it as a `draft:` line. The dry-run demonstrates the actual answer the executor
(T3) will send, not just an intent. RuleBrain stays the default; the llm-connect brain
(T2) is gated on llm-connect being operational + its /execute contract.
230 tests, lint clean. Live dry-run verified against the real inbox.

Foundation for an autonomous worker that handles ops-warden's State Hub coordination
lane via llm-connect (Bernd's call: full-auto in-scope + scheduled, staged dry-run ->
manual -> scheduled). T1 is the llm-connect-independent, safe slice:
src/warden/worker.py — HubClient (read unread to_agent=ops-warden), Brain protocol,
deterministic RuleBrain (answers clear routing questions, escalates the rest),
PlannedAction/WorkerPlan model, guardrail allowlist + validate_action enforced
brain-agnostically (no-secret invariant + prod-config + off-allowlist all escalate),
render_plans dry-run output. `warden worker run --dry-run` (default); --execute refused
(exit 2) until the guarded executor (T3) lands.
Guardrails are load-bearing because full-auto has no human in the loop: message content
is untrusted data, the allowlist is enforced regardless of what the brain proposes.
Hard dependency flagged in the workplan: the brain is llm-connect, which needs its
provider key (OPENROUTER_API_KEY, deferred CCR-2026-0003) before it can run.
18 worker tests; 229 pass, lint clean. Live dry-run against the real hub verified.

secrets-engine (SECRETS-WP-0003) shipped a native secret-exec front door
(`secrets-engine route/exec`, decision e6381a56) and asked ops-warden to route to it.
Bernd's call: route-primary, proxy-fallback — surface the secrets-engine exec as the
primary path for owned lanes, keep `warden access --exec` as a transparent fallback.
T1 — RouteEntry gains exec_owner/exec_command/pointer_command (+ has_native_exec),
screened for secret material like the other handoff fields. whynot-design-npm-publish
points its native exec at secrets-engine. `warden access` renders Primary (secrets-engine
exec) + Fallback (warden proxy); route/access JSON gain the fields and a native-exec-aware
next_action. Tests added; 217 pass, lint clean.
T2 — credential-routing.md adds secrets-engine as the secret-exec owner (route primary,
proxy fallback); SCOPE adds secrets-engine to Related Repos and records the npm lane as
production-exercised (@whynot/design@0.4.0); playbook leads with secrets-engine exec and
fixes the fallback one-liner (--field NPM_AUTH_TOKEN, --no-policy) per whynot-design.

railiance-platform finished provisioning the whynot-design npm publish lane
(CCR-2026-0001, commit 8f617fc: active, readiness=ready, resolvable=true, positive
fetch + negative denial verified). First concrete warden access --fetch-resolvable
non-SSH lane — end-to-end proof of the WP-0014 conduit + WP-0017 discoverability.
T1 — catalog entry whynot-design-npm-publish (active, exec_capable) with the
owner-confirmed zero-placeholder handoff: path platform/workloads/coulomb/whynot-design/
npm-publish (the superseded whynot-design/whynot-design/... form is not used), field
NPM_AUTH_TOKEN, OIDC role whynot-design-workload-kv-read, policy + flex-auth ref. Added
wiki/playbooks/whynot-design-npm-publish.md.
T2 — RouteEntry.resolvable (active + exec_capable + no <…> placeholder), surfaced in
route/access --json; Catalog.find resolves an exact catalog-id first so
`warden access whynot-design-npm-publish` is deterministic. Tests added; fixed a
no-match test query that substring-collided (no ⊂ whynot). 213 pass, lint clean.
T3 — notified whynot-design (zero-placeholder command + resolvable gate + path
correction) and confirmed activation to railiance-platform. Sibling lanes stay draft
per their deferral.

WP-0014 made ops-warden the operator access front door (warden access --fetch/--exec
proxies an exec_capable secret as the caller), but every discovery surface still told
the pre-WP-0014 "SSH certs only, pointer not key" story — so agents like whynot-design
never found the proxy and concluded they had to message ops-warden for a token value.
Messaging/discoverability only; the conduit security model is unchanged (no custody,
no broker).
T1 — CLI: `warden route` table warden column is now three-valued (issue/assist/route);
route + access JSON gain warden_role + exec_capable and a proxy-aware next_action;
`warden access` closing line leads with "ops-warden can fetch this for you as the
caller" for exec_capable lanes (route-only lanes keep "owner vends").
T2 — .claude/rules/credential-routing.md reframed (lead + routing table role column);
SCOPE one-liner + a second capability block for the access front door.
T3 — registered the State Hub capability "Operator access front door (caller-identity
fetch proxy)" (the hub had no ops-warden security capability at all); messaged
whynot-design the corrected `warden access "npm auth token" --fetch/--exec` path.
210 tests pass, lint clean.

Close ops-warden's side of the last Partial INTENT criterion (ops-bridge integrates
via a stable cert_command). The migration playbook and contract already existed; what
was missing was an automated readiness gate before touching tunnel config.
T1 — scripts/check_tunnel_cert_readiness.py: read-only preflight that asserts the
cert_command path is ready without signing — config/backend, actor inventory + TTL
within type max, pubkey exists/parses/not-private, principals present, and optional
host-principal deployment (mirrors check_principals_drift). Exit 0/1/2.
T2 — opt-in --sign-smoke: runs the cert_command against the local backend and validates
identity/principals/TTL of the emitted cert; refuses a vault backend. Window measured
from the cert's own valid_from->valid_before so it's timezone-robust (fixes a CEST
off-by-2h artifact). integration-marked test + a vault-refusal unit test.
T3 — playbook now leads with Step 0 readiness gate; ops-bridge handoff message sent.
T4 — SCOPE INTENT row: Partial -> Pilot-ready; known-gaps + SSH-lane list updated.
9 unit + 1 integration test, 209 default passing, lint clean.

Finish the Workload Security Posture workplan (all five tasks done).
T3 — scripts/check_secret_posture_conformance.py: read-only checker that asserts
env-posture conformance (backend/unseal/real_values per tier) and evaluates the
secret-flow lattice via posture.can_deliver. Metadata-only manifest, no secret
values, exit 0/1/2. examples/posture-conformance.example.yaml as the reference.
T4 — src/warden/doubles.py: generalizes "fake bao" into materialize_doubles() —
hermetic, synthetic-only (synthetic- prefix) stand-ins for bao/key-cape honoring
each argv/stdout/exit contract, for fully offline dev/test access flows. Documented
as the sanctioned dev backend in WorkloadSecurityPosture.md R1.
T5 — INTENT/SCOPE/wiki aligned; canon landing in net-kingdom/info-tech-canon left

Adds a lane: secret|login field to RouteEntry. The login lane is an
interactive auth bootstrap: it skips the caller-auth precheck (no token
yet — that's the point) and the secret-read gate (it establishes the
identity the gate needs), runs the owner's login command interactively
as the caller via inherited stdio, and rejects --exec. The token stays
in the caller's own store; warden never captures it (G2 holds). Audited
as action: login. key-cape-oidc-login populated as the reference login
entry. Advisory proxy hint updated now that T3 has shipped.
172 passed, lint clean.

Adds transparent, policy-gated, audited proxy of a non-SSH credential
through `warden access`, for exec_capable lanes. Three guardrails in code:
- G1 caller identity: runs the owner's tool with the caller's own env;
warden injects no token of its own (caller_auth_present check).
- G2 transit-only: --fetch inherits stdout (never PIPE) so the value
never enters warden's memory or any log; --exec injects into the child
env only. Audit (access-audit.log) is metadata-only.
- G3 policy gate: check_fetch_policy runs before any fetch; with
policy.enabled=false the proxy refuses unless --no-policy is given.
resolve_fetch_command refuses unresolved <…> placeholders rather than
guess owner-side names. New warden/proxy.py + policy.check_fetch_policy;
tests/test_proxy.py asserts all three guardrails. 168 passed, lint clean.

Adds `warden access <need> [--domain X] [--json]`: resolves a credential
need against the routing catalog and renders the structured handoff
(owner, auth method, path template, command skeleton, policy gate
status, proxy hint). SSH lane points at `warden sign`; routed lanes end
"warden advises, the owner vends". New pure warden/access.py module
(expand_handoff, policy_gate_status) reused by the T3 proxy lane. JSON
output is stable and secret-free. tests/test_access.py added.

Adds optional assist-layer fields (auth_method, path_template,
fetch_command, exec_capable, policy_ref) to RouteEntry, parsed and
secret-screened in catalog.py. Handoff fields are templates/pointers
only — _assert_no_secret_material rejects known token prefixes and
high-entropy runs, and exec_capable requires a fetch_command. The
openbao-api-key entry is populated as the reference example (covers the
coulomb_social npm shape).

Add platform-secret playbooks for issue-core ingestion, OpenRouter llm-connect,
object-storage STS, and database dynamic credentials. Extend the routing catalog
with draft entries and implement `warden route list --stale` for quarterly drift
review. Document the review cadence in AccessRouting and mark the workplan finished.
Add a read-only `warden route` command group (list/show/find) that reads
registry/routing/catalog.yaml and tells a worker which subsystem owns a need
and which wiki/canon doc to follow. ops-warden still executes exactly one lane
(SSH); routed entries return a pointer and never call any subsystem.
- src/warden/routing/: models.py + catalog.py loader; enforces the
no-double-source rule (non-SSH entries with steps/cert_command fail validation),
dup-id and schema checks.
- route list (active-only unless --all, --tag), route show (SSH appends steps +
cert pattern; routed ends with "next action on <owner> — see <wiki_ref>"),
route find (keyword ranking, --json).
- tests/test_routing.py: load/validation, find ranking, CLI JSON shapes, plus a
drift guard (every wiki_ref anchor resolves; every entry has a reviewed date).
- Docs: wiki/AccessRouting.md CLI section, README quick reference, SCOPE A3 -> A4.

Add policy.py client that calls flex-auth /v1/check before sign/issue when
policy.enabled is true. Record policy_decision_id in signatures.log. Default
off preserves existing inventory-only behavior. Document production OpenBao
health probe and update config/wiki references.
