Handoff from the-custodian CUST-WP-0079-T04. On 2026-10-11 the founder adopted a standing build-mode change authorization. The source of truth is the-custodian canon/standards/build-mode-change-authorization_v0.1.md. policy-nexus publishes it, per this repo's intent: publication only, the content stays in canon.

Publish the standard on policy.coulomb.social

intervention_note: "Public publication is red-lane; add PNEX-WP-0006 to the single daily founder batch. Local code and tests are prepared; no per-item approval request."

Add the standard to the source inventory and publication index. Render it with its machine-checkable YAML block intact. Show expires_on: production-close-down prominently.

Serve the YAML block as a stable JSON/YAML artifact (for example /guardrails/build-mode-change-authorization.json). CI checks in other repos and access-engine can then fetch and evaluate it deterministically. Add a test that the published artifact equals the canon block.

Implementation and publication boundary (2026-10-11)

T01/T02 source implementation is prepared: canonical document inventory/index entry, visible expiry, canon YAML-derived JSON artifact, digest-bound release verification, and fail-closed local evaluator. Local checks pass; the native public page/artifact have not been published and neither task is closed. Validation receipt: docs/evidence/2026-10-11-build-mode-guardrail/validation.json.

Daily red-lane package: publish only the new build-mode standard and its derived JSON artifact after founder batch disposition and clean source provenance. Expected addresses: /standards/build-mode-change-authorization/v0.1/ and /guardrails/build-mode-change-authorization.json. Abort owner: policy-nexus. Rollback: restore the previously deployed image/source revision; retain all previous immutable publication paths. Verification: canonical page expiry/YAML, JSON equality with the approved canon block, artifact digest and installed source revision. No native action, access-scope change or new spend is authorized by local preparation.

Full source audit also detects the unrelated unreviewed net-kingdom/canon/standards/security-layer-model_v0.9.md. Its owning source publication disposition must be resolved before the release gate passes; this workplan does not silently admit it or edit another owner's standard.
