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). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

## Architecture
|
|
|
|
### Our rules are ADRs — `docs/adr/`
|
|
|
|
The decisions that govern this repo live in `docs/adr/` as addressable records,
|
|
not in wiki prose. Read `docs/adr/README.md` first; it explains the one
|
|
distinction that matters here.
|
|
|
|
| ADR | Rule |
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|
| `ADR-0001` | The routing catalog is a pointer layer, never a second copy of an owner's procedure |
|
|
| `ADR-0002` | ops-warden is a transparent conduit, never a secret broker |
|
|
| `ADR-0003` | Cover gaps, but never silently own them |
|
|
| `ADR-0004` | High-risk lanes refuse raw value streaming to agent sessions |
|
|
| `ADR-0005` | Implement one lane narrowly, route everything else |
|
|
| `ADR-0006` | Enforcement is zone-scoped, never a global flag |
|
|
|
|
### Owned versus inherited — check `owner:` before changing anything
|
|
|
|
Every ADR carries `owner:` in its frontmatter, and it decides what you are allowed
|
|
to do with the rule:
|
|
|
|
- **`owner: ops-warden`** — ours. We are bound by it *and* we may change it. Changing
|
|
one means writing a superseding ADR, not editing the decision in place.
|
|
- **any other owner** — inherited. We follow it; we do not own it. Dispute it through
|
|
that owner's process; never amend it here.
|
|
|
|
Everything in `docs/adr/` today is `owner: ops-warden`. Rules we merely follow —
|
|
NetKingdom canon, the IAM profile, the credential-management standard — are cited,
|
|
never copied in. Copying them would recreate the second-source-of-truth failure
|
|
`ADR-0001` exists to prevent.
|
|
|
|
**Naming collision, worth knowing.** `ADR-001` (three digits) in
|
|
`workplan-convention.md` and `session-protocol.md` is **the-custodian's** ADR
|
|
establishing the workplan convention across the whole estate. It is inherited and
|
|
not ours to change. Our records are four-digit — `ADR-0001` … `ADR-0005` — and live
|
|
in this repo. When writing, say "the-custodian's ADR-001" if that is what you mean.
|
|
|
|
### Precedence
|
|
|
|
If a wiki page, playbook, or `.claude/rules/` file disagrees with an ADR, **the ADR
|
|
is right and the other file is a defect** — fix it rather than working around it.
|
|
The rule files are agent-facing operational instructions derived from these
|
|
decisions; they should cite an ADR rather than restate its reasoning.
|
|
|
|
### Publication
|
|
|
|
These ADRs are publishable through `policy-nexus` at `policy.coulomb.social`, which
|
|
requires `title`, `status` and `owner`, renders owner in the page header and in the
|
|
index, and records source repo, path and revision digest in its manifest. Ownership
|
|
survives the repo boundary. `policy-nexus` publishes and never writes back: the file
|
|
here is the source of truth.
