Blocked workplan closure review — 2026-09-05

Reviewed all current plans and every archived plan's task status against INTENT, SCOPE, local evidence, the repository-filtered Hub projection and adjacent owner records. Six source plans remain blocked, with 12 unfinished tasks. No terminal plan has unfinished task blocks. There is no evidence to finish another blocked plan today without additional owner/live acceptance. Reducing the count by cancelling necessary recovery or custody obligations would misstate completion.

Completed loose ends removed from the current view

• Archived finished RPF-WP-0037 with all three tasks done; preserved its ID, UUIDs and evidence. No repeat ESO rotation is needed.
• Corrected signing-lane and Backup-account descriptions in the current index and SCOPE: RPF-WP-0035-T04 and RPF-WP-0029-T03 are already live-complete.
• Corrected RPF-WP-0015's current blocker: audit-core has implemented and registered the load driver and proved a local accepted/duplicate round trip. A new implementation request would duplicate existing work.
• Refreshed the compatibility inventory's hashes after recent documentation changes. Its retention decision remains valid through 2026-10-05; no owner acceptance or source transfer is claimed.

Remaining closure requirements

Plan / task	Work already complete	Exact remaining result / responsible owner
0015 T02	Reviewed procedure, contained harness, registered audit-core driver	Approved synthetic sender, fresh ≤15-minute window and abort operator; platform lease/ESO recovery plus audit-core retry/readiness proof, accepted by rapp-postgres
0015 T03	Ordered owner-reviewed outage procedure and contained login repair	Fresh encrypted off-host snapshot, independent quorum/console access, named operators and outage window; S1/S2 execute reboot, S3 proves custody/readiness, audit-core proves application recovery
0025 T03	Guarded callback/retraction/rollback tooling	Attended loopback callback/login proof, then guarded public-listener retraction and S1 DNS disposition; preserve package/issuer/tunnel boundaries
0027 T03/T05/T06	KeyCape bundle rotation and provider procedure	NetKingdom's sanitized resolver receipt and incident-owner ruling on unavailable predecessor; confirmed operator custody coordinates and reader/writer handoff. Do not rotate the bundle again or reconstruct exposed values
0029 T02	Backup-owned create-only share, encrypted fixture recovery, ESO/runtime refresh	Owner invalidation receipt for the old Bernd-owned share plus fetched real-backup application restore. Backup account credentials cannot revoke a different owner's share; existing retained data/key custody must survive
0035 T02	JWT design and secrets-engine authentication implementation	KeyCape HTTPS issuer/JWKS, accepted exact claims/audience and consumer opt-in; reviewed scoped role, positive/negative/expiry/revocation proof
0035 T03	Operator matrix design	Accepted tenant/path/fields/capability matrix and IAM assurance binding; then platform validator/executor implementation, consumer CAS/containment and live scoped acceptance
0036 T03	Local freshness evaluator and recovery procedures	Owner-validated recurring restore/snapshot/offsite receipts and accepted cadence. Synthetic transport recovery does not establish full application recovery
0036 T04	Metadata producer and repaired ESO delivery	Railiance-telemetry receiving contract, named recipient, controlled failure delivery and missing-emission detection
0036 T06	Exact inventory and dated retention decision	Accepting compatibility owners/replacement caller proof or renewed retention decision; repo-manager/State Hub repair of retired-alias visibility and regenerated orientation

These retain six distinct boundaries: recovery exercises, private operator access, identity incident custody, backup incident recovery, new credential lanes and recurring service assurance. No further merger removes an underlying dependency. Application/identity/host execution remains with its existing owner; S3 retains its acceptance contribution. No coordination messages were sent.

Fresh read-only operating evidence

docs/evidence/RPF-blocked-review-2026-09-05.json pins the railiance01 cluster and preserves capture-time evaluation. All 15 collected signals are healthy: readiness, backup, WAL and headroom for three database cells; OpenBao unsealed; ESO readiness and freshness. The seven absent signals are three database restores, OpenBao snapshot/restore and offsite upload/restore evidence adapters. The missing offsite signal is not a failed Backup cutover: its separate receipt proves a synthetic fixture only and has not been promoted to a real-backup assurance receipt. Overall assurance remains incomplete and Q2 unmonitored.

Derived records that inflate the apparent backlog

The repository-filtered Hub read still returns these retired aliases as open:

Retired alias UUID	Canonical source UUID
038bc3c0-4492-5b91-95eb-ae515ca205df	b2c25a01-4a80-55c1-90cf-8538000f7e0e (0027)
6f8a6cbc-c076-5f0a-ade2-281a7ec71360	6dda6039-295e-5cac-aef6-3183c3218649 (0025)
88c4ef7f-0af8-580e-90dc-a2bae2675a4d	f4640325-e89c-591d-b58e-ec6b087900ac (0015)

The installed brief generator queries open rows without filtering these retired aliases. Regenerating it alone would repeat the defect. Routine exact-commit reconciliation does not remove the historical rows from this read view. Keep this scoped owner defect in T06; do not edit managed IDs, blanket-acknowledge retirements or fabricate file-backed rows. The current workplan README is the accurate orientation until the owner repairs the read/generator contract.

Next execution order

First obtain the old-share owner invalidation receipt and execute a real offsite restore to close 0029; the new account is already operational. Keep the private OpenBao cutover in its own attended window, especially while other credential work is active. Resolve the NetKingdom incident evidence disposition separately. For service assurance, accepted restore adapters/cadence and a Q2 receiver are the meaningful missing deliverables; another local health checker is unnecessary.

Unrelated in-progress Glas/Anthropic credential files were present at review start and were excluded from this change.
