# whynot-design npm publish token
Date: 2026-09-04
Catalog: `whynot-design-npm-publish` (status `active`, `resolvable: true`)
Owner: `railiance-platform` (OpenBao) · provisioning CCR-2026-0001 (commit 8f617fc)
> **Rotation required (2026-09-04).** The OIDC role and OpenBao read path are
> healthy, but the stored credential failed a real Forgejo publish. Version
> `@whynot/design@0.4.2` was published and integrity-verified through the
> plan-authorized Forgejo admin recovery lane. Treat this dedicated lane as
> unverified for writes until its package token is rotated and re-proven.
The `NPM_AUTH_TOKEN` that publishes `@whynot/design` to the coulomb Forgejo npm registry
(`https://forgejo.coulomb.social/api/packages/coulomb/npm/`). ops-warden **does not hold
this token** — it is the access front door: `warden access` proxies the read from OpenBao
**as the caller** and never persists, caches, or logs the value.

## Owner-confirmed lane (no placeholders)
| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| OpenBao path | `platform/workloads/coulomb/whynot-design/npm-publish` |
| Field | `NPM_AUTH_TOKEN` |
| KV mount | `platform` |
| Read policy | `workload-kv-read-whynot-design-npm-publish` |
| OIDC login | `bao login -method=oidc -path=netkingdom role=whynot-design-workload-kv-read` |
| Bound group | `whynot-design` |
| flex-auth ref | `secret.read:whynot-design` (if tenant policy requires pre-approval) |
| Runbook (owner) | `railiance-platform/docs/workload-kv-access-lanes.md` |
> The `platform/workloads/whynot-design/whynot-design/npm-publish` path from early in the
> provisioning thread is **superseded** — the live path is under the `coulomb` tenant.

## Worker checklist
1. **Authenticate as yourself** (you need your own identity; ops-warden adds none):
```bash
bao login -method=oidc -path=netkingdom role=whynot-design-workload-kv-read
```
Your token must carry the `whynot-design` group bound claim; a non-whynot identity is
denied by policy (verified negative case).
2. **Run via the owner-native front door (primary).** secrets-engine owns the secret-exec
for this lane (SECRETS-WP-0003, decision e6381a56); ops-warden routes to it:
```bash
secrets-engine route whynot-design-npm-publish --json # pointer / readiness
secrets-engine exec --catalog whynot-design-npm-publish -- \
npm view @whynot/design@<version> version \
--registry=https://forgejo.coulomb.social/api/packages/coulomb/npm/
secrets-engine exec --catalog whynot-design-npm-publish -- npm publish
```
**ops-warden transparent fallback** — same lane via the `warden access` proxy (fetches as
you, holds nothing). The project `.npmrc` must point both the `@whynot` scope and
token fragment at `forgejo.coulomb.social`:
```bash
# --exec needs the env-var name. The zone-aware policy gate always runs first.
warden access whynot-design-npm-publish --field NPM_AUTH_TOKEN \
--exec -- npm view @whynot/design@<version> version \
--registry=https://forgejo.coulomb.social/api/packages/coulomb/npm/
warden access whynot-design-npm-publish --field NPM_AUTH_TOKEN \
--exec -- npm publish
warden access whynot-design-npm-publish --field NPM_AUTH_TOKEN --fetch
```
On either path the value transits to you (or the child env) and never enters
ops-warden's memory, disk, or audit log.
3. **Readiness gate (for automated callers).** Before attempting `--fetch`, check the flag:
```bash
warden route show whynot-design-npm-publish --json | jq .resolvable # true
```
`resolvable: true` means the lane is concrete and `--fetch` will run; a template lane
reports `false`.
4. **Publish is outward-facing and immutable.** Before publishing, confirm that
`package.json#publishConfig.registry` is exactly the Forgejo URL above, verify the
intended version and `npm pack --dry-run` contents, and obtain explicit operator
approval. `npm publish` is irreversible; do not auto-run it from an agent.
5. **Record non-secret release evidence.** After the owner publishes, record only the
package coordinate (for example `@whynot/design@0.4.2`), registry URL, authenticated
install result, and release-content verification. Never record the token or npm
configuration generated for its delivery.
Forgejo advertises `npm view`, search, install, publish, unpublish, and dist-tag
support; it does not advertise `npm whoami`. Use the exact-version lookup above
rather than treating `npm whoami` failure as a credential failure.
---
## Scopes
This lane is the **publish** token only. A separate **read/install** token (for consumers
of `@whynot/design`) is a distinct need and would be its own catalog id
(`whynot-design-npm-read`) once railiance-platform provisions it — do not conflate them.
