Add secrets-engine secret-use snapshot: catalog plus local evidence only,
contracted non-secret fields, declared 1d heartbeat cadence. Never contacts
OpenBao. Completeness is not claimed. owner_status stays proposed until
kings-guard admits the snapshot as an observation input.

Select service-jwt, bootstrap, or env exclusively: JWT login uses a JSON
file, self-revokes, and never falls back to bootstrap or BAO_TOKEN. The
platform JWT mount/role is still unpublished, so auto keeps named
bootstrap/env providers.
session revoke --accessor-file revokes an already-issued token with
fingerprint-only evidence. Production remains fail-closed.

Every live privileged production handler CAS-consumes through
approval-engine before OpenBao. Conflict, unavailability, or a missing
binding fail closed. Live production remains disabled until the durable
decision record is served.
Record kings-guard assent on the secret-use evidence contract.

Load pep-stance.yaml as the live unreachable-engine gate and record named
stance fields on privileged evidence. Classify evidence, queue load-bearing
records in a local outbox, and add heartbeat/drain commands that never sit
on a mutation path. Publish proposed SSH-CA and secret-use evidence
contracts without adding an OpenBao SSH-CA write.
T02 (access-engine decision records) and T06 (no standing credential) stay
wait on external endpoints.

Replace the gate-house review note with this repository's own declaration:
INTENT.md frontmatter, layer.yaml, and a published PEP stance map. SCOPE.md
and agent boundary docs now match that layer. The review under history/
identifies the implementation remainder; SECRETS-WP-0008 is the follow-on
workplan. SECRETS-IN-0001 is closed.
The layer is not contested. Catalog "custody" is a finding: OpenBao owns
custody, this engine owns the lifecycle API over it. SSH-CA signing is
accepted as a proposed engine API and declined as a Staff lane.
