The vocabulary mapping this path was waiting on is not coming: gate-house rejected it in GH-DEC-2026-008, because a translation can be confidently wrong and fails open by accepting a claim approved for a different action. The stronger option arrived instead, and both halves are enforced here. flex-auth published binding.approval_binding_digest (FLEX-DEC-2026-007) to fix the circularity this repo reported: a pdp_digest recorded at issue time can never equal the request_digest of the request that carries the claim in its hashed context, so with GH-DEC-2026-008 requiring that equality, destroy would have failed closed forever on a check no correct record could pass. - authorization.approval_binding_digest implements the published exclusion rule, including Go's context,omitempty behaviour when stripping empties the context; digest_material drops an empty context for the same reason. - validate_decision_envelope recomputes the field rather than trusting it, refuses a claim-bearing request whose decision records none, and compares the claim's digest from step 1 against it -- never against request_digest, which still covers the claim so it stays a sound replay identity. - validate_approval_claim requires binding.pdp_path true before using pdp_digest at all. Path intent is never inferred from a digest that happens to be present; pre-schema-v3 approvals carry pdp_path false regardless of any digest they hold. Replay fixtures re-vendored from dd3ce4c. The destroy pins moved a second and final time; approval_binding_digest did not, which is the point. The fixture now demonstrates the property instead of asserting it: we rederive fa07becf... from its own request through our canonical implementation, proving we hash the same material flex-auth does rather than pinning a constant we cannot reproduce.

"""Digest join verified against real flex-auth DecisionEnvelopes (FLEX-WP-0021-T03).
|
|
|
|
These replace a hand-maintained pin that was computed *including* the request
|
|
`id`. docs/canonical-request-digest.md excludes `id`, `policy_version` and
|
|
`caring_context` from the hashed material, and both real envelopes confirm it:
|
|
a digest computed over the old material matches no issued decision, which would
|
|
have failed closed against every correct allow.
|
|
|
|
Both fixtures are required. `provenance.input_claim_digests.context` appears
|
|
only when the request carries a non-empty context, so a validator asserting it
|
|
is always present passes `destroy` and fails `rotate`.
