32 assertions, 31 pass on Railiance01. The one failure is a real defect the old
loose assertion could never have seen: Flannel VXLAN declared open to Anywhere
with no source restriction, currently absent from the host, so converging would
introduce the exposure rather than correct drift.
Also records the sharper finding from wiring it up: verify.yaml was missing the
vars_files the bootstrap play had, so the firewall assertions rendered empty and
silently asserted nothing - worse than having no check at all.

T04 done, and the answer changes the order. Item 10 was scored size 5 as a
greenfield build. It is not. railiance-infra already has a Goss baseline suite,
an ansible runner, a make verify target that runs it against all hosts and
commits TAP reports to git, and an evidence trail in reports/. The mechanism is
built and wired.
Two things are wrong with it and neither is a build. Nothing runs it - the last
TAP report is dated 2026-03-09, five months ago. And its firewall assertion
matches /6443\/tcp.*ALLOW/, which asserts the port is allowed but not from
whom - it passes identically whether 6443 is restricted to one operator address
or open to the internet, which is exactly the drift that went undetected. It
would however have caught the other finding, since it asserts Status: active and
UFW is inactive on CoulombCore.
Rescoped into slices: 10a (run it, tighten the assertion) is size 1-2 and rises
to WSJF 12.0, fourth overall and the highest-value item after the ratifications.
10b (schedule + alert path) is 7.0. Names the shared dependency - 10b and 9b are
the same plumbing, and building either of 9 or 10 without it produces logs
nobody reads.
The lesson recorded: the gap analysis correctly identified no-conformance-loop
as a capability gap, but the capability was two-thirds built and abandoned.
Before sizing a gap as a build, check whether it is actually an abandonment.

T03 done: sent as ac73b172 with the recommendation that master takes the eight
ratification and taxonomy items, and including the correction that our earlier
ArgoCD report to them was wrong.

Reads all ten local railiance-* INTENT.md files as a statement of intended
architecture, cross-checked against git history, remotes and the live cluster.
Ten repos declare eight distinct intents. The aspiration is coherent and the
handoffs are stated from both sides. Findings: railiance-bootstrap is a second
local clone of railiance-cluster rather than a repo (which means fleet counts
built by scanning ~ overcount, including the 112 figure in the org refactor);
railiance-hosts and railiance-infra are distinct remotes with unrelated
histories and byte-identical INTENT, both claiming S1; railiance-forge is
unplaced in the OAS stack dimension; S4 is aspiration-only at 25 commits and
zero workplans.
The strongest finding is a shared thread nobody named: five layers
independently aspire to be "self-evidencing" or "auditable", and no repo owns
the verification substrate that would evaluate those claims. That is the same
gap as the enforcement control loop, arrived at from the opposite direction.
Also notes missing homes for observability, end-to-end restore proof, and the
cost-attribution interface.

Operator design review considered binding bounded rapp context to Forgejo orgs
or State Hub domains and rejected both. OAS P1 governs - independent
perspectives must stay in separate dimensions - and cardinality forces it: a
repo has exactly one Forgejo org (a path segment in the clone URL) so org:repo
is 1:many, while rapp:repo is many:many, and a many:many grouping cannot be
derived from a 1:many one.
Records the dimension table, the composition block (first-party member repos
plus pinned upstream components and a stated purpose), and the precision that
makes enforcement well-defined: repos are many:many with rapps but deployables
are 1:1, so the validator can ask whether every live deployable belongs to
exactly one rapp. That is the coverage check that would have caught all three
of this survey's drift findings at once.

T01: docs/rapp-platform-service-pattern.md generalizes the ownership split
already drawn in the rapp-openbao and rapp-postgres boundary docs into a
reusable four-question test, a reference rapp.yaml for platform services, the
grouped-rapp member rule, and the credential-lane position. It deliberately
does not restate the four-axis model, which railiance-master owns.
T03/T04/T05: proposals routed to the repos that own the model rather than
authored here - reef-railiance (bound_rapps lists 1 of 3 live rapps, and should
be derived rather than hand-listed), railiance-master (rapp.schema.json plus a
family declaration validator, grouped-rapp members field, wave-2 candidate
refresh), the-custodian (canon promotion of the four-axis model, which also
closes the open C-31 multi-segment prefix failures).
T02 is held until the schema settles so the platform rapps and the schema do
not converge on different answers.

Survey of the four-axis repo family model against the live cluster and all six
family repos found the concepts sound but unenforced: rapp.yaml has no schema
and has drifted three ways across the three existing rapps, the reef binding
registry lists 1 of 3 live rapps, the rapp population diverged from the
first-wave plan of record, and the model is not in custodian canon so
fix-consistency cannot check it.
Operator decisions recorded in the workplan: grouped-by-bounded-context rapp
granularity, S3 owns only its own rapps and routes schema/canon changes to the
repos that own them, canonize the model now, and build the missing wave-1
user-facing exemplar.
