Implement TEN-WP-0011 security layer conformance
All checks were successful
Build and Publish Container Image / build-and-push (push) Successful in 37s

Engine/PIP declaration is now checkable (layer.yaml plus a Tooling-client
scan). Writes persist a decision record or the published fail-closed
stance, live-lookup freshness is published, events_for is tenant-scoped,
and mutation evidence drains to audit-core from a local outbox without
blocking the mutation.

Sender registration is requested as AUDIT-IN-0002. Boundary-contract
amendment is requested as NET-IN-0002.

# Mutation evidence emission (TEN-WP-0011-T04)
Statute §9.6. Companion §6. Current event classes are **attributive**:
no control in this engine branches on an event's presence. Role grants
as *facts* are live PIP input; the *events* are the trail.
## Bound
The local `events` table and the local `audit_outbox` prove that the
records they hold were not altered or truncated after arrival. They do
not prove an event happened, and absence is not evidence of
non-occurrence. They share this service's runtime database credential,
so they are not independent custody.
Independent custody belongs to `audit-core`. This engine POSTs
`/v1/events` and holds no SQL, no admin, and no rewrite path against
audit-core's store. The external copy therefore cannot be rewritten
through tenant-engine's database credential.
## Trade (declared)
| Step | Atomic with mutation? | If it fails |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Insert local `events` row | yes (same transaction) | mutation rolls back |
| Insert local `audit_outbox` row | yes (same transaction) | mutation rolls back |
| Drain outbox to audit-core | **no** — after commit | mutation already succeeded; row stays pending |
Emission is **non-blocking**. Unavailable audit-core MUST NOT fail-open
a mutation (the fact is already written) and MUST NOT fail-closed a
mutation (attributive evidence is not load-bearing). Completeness is
not claimed. If a future control starts branching on these events, that
class must be reclassified load-bearing before it ships, and this trade
revisited.
## Envelope
`audit-core.event.v1alpha1`. `source` is `tenant-engine`. See
`tenant_engine.audit_core.envelope_for`. Duplicate event ids are 200
and not retried; 400/409 dead-letter; 503/transport retry.
## Credentials
No secret in Git. Production sender token is projected as
`TENANT_ENGINE_AUDIT_CORE_TOKEN_FILE`, routed through `warden route`
(`audit-core` sender registration), never through a State Hub message.
Sender registration itself is requested as `AUDIT-IN-0002`.
## Backfill
**Decision:** no backfill of pre-cutover event classes. Those rows stay
in the local table. Reconstructing them into audit-core would mint
evidence this engine cannot prove was complete at the time. New
mutations from this workplan onward enqueue the outbox.
## Configuration
| Env var | Default | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `TENANT_ENGINE_AUDIT_CORE_URL` | unset | Drain is skipped; outbox rows stay pending. |
| `TENANT_ENGINE_AUDIT_CORE_TOKEN_FILE` | unset | Bearer token file for POST /v1/events. |
| `TENANT_ENGINE_AUDIT_CORE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS` | `3` | Drain timeout. |

# flex-auth Integration (TEN-WP-0003)
# flex-auth Integration
`tenant-engine` gates every write through flex-auth's `POST /v1/check`
(`flex_auth.FlexAuthCheckClient`, wired in as `authz.FlexAuthWriteAuthorizer`).
`tenant-engine` gates every write, and every authorized read, through
flex-auth's `POST /v1/check` (`flex_auth.FlexAuthCheckClient`, wired in as
`authz.FlexAuthWriteAuthorizer`). Writes are PEP-shaped: no mutation
without a decision record or a recorded fail-closed stance
(`pep-stance.yaml`).
## What tenant-engine sends
@ -13,56 +16,98 @@ A `CheckRequest` per `flex-auth/schemas/check_request.schema.json`:
"tenant": "tenant:friendly:binky",
"subject": {"id": "<actor>", "type": "service"},
"action": "tenant.create",
"resource": {"id": "<tenant_id>", "type": "tenant", "system": "tenant-engine"}
"resource": {"id": "<tenant_id>", "type": "tenant", "system": "tenant-engine"},
"context": {}
}
```
`context` is always empty. This engine never puts `tenant_roles` or any
other PIP claim on the check it sends. The check asks whether *this
caller* may use *this admin/PIP surface*, not what the tenant is allowed
to do on the platform.
Action → resource-type mapping (must match `flex-auth`'s
`FLEX-WP-0008-T01` vocabulary exactly — coordinate values, don't diverge):
| Action | Resource type |
| --- | --- |
| `tenant.create` | `tenant` |
| `tenant.role.grant` | `role-grant` |
| `tenant.role.revoke` | `role-grant` |
| `tenant.plan.assign` | `plan-assignment` |
| Action | Resource type | Surface |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `tenant.create` | `tenant` | write |
| `tenant.role.grant` | `role-grant` | write |
| `tenant.role.revoke` | `role-grant` | write |
| `tenant.plan.assign` | `plan-assignment` | write |
| `tenant.update` | `tenant` | write |
| `tenant.retire` | `tenant` | write |
| `tenant.reactivate` | `tenant` | write |
| `tenant.grouping.set` | `tenant` | write |
| `tenant.guardrail.read` | `guardrail` | read |
| `tenant.guardrail.set` | `guardrail` | write |
| `tenant.read` | `tenant` | read |
| `tenant.role.read` | `role-grant` | read (cache-read) |
| `tenant.role.read.live` | `role-grant` | read (live-lookup) |
## What tenant-engine expects back
A `DecisionEnvelope` per `flex-auth/schemas/decision_envelope.schema.json`.
Only `effect: "allow"` authorizes the write. Every other `effect`
(`deny`/`redact`/`audit_only`/`not_applicable`), a non-200 response, a
malformed body, or a transport failure/timeout all resolve to **deny**
`FlexAuthCheckClient.is_allowed()` never raises past its own boundary; it
always returns a plain `bool`.
Only `effect: "allow"` authorizes the action. Every other `effect`, a
non-200 response, a malformed body, or a transport failure/timeout all
resolve to **deny**. `FlexAuthCheckClient.check()` never raises past its
own boundary; it returns a `CheckResult` that is either a decision or a
recorded application of the fail-closed stance.
## The current real state
The decision id, request digest, effect, and source are persisted on
`authz_records` for every attempt and on the mutation event payload for
every successful write. Verdicts are never cached: every call is a new
POST (`pep-stance.yaml` `verdict_caching: none`).
Until `flex-auth/workplans/FLEX-WP-0008-tenant-engine-consumer-integration.md`
lands (resource/action vocabulary + an authored policy package), **every
check resolves to deny or not_applicable** — verified against real
`flex-auth` behavior, not assumed. This is correct fail-closed behavior,
not a bug: tenant-engine cannot perform any write against a real `flex-auth`
deployment until that policy package exists. Verified locally with a fake
HTTP double standing in for `flex-auth` (deny → `403`, allow → `201`,
both over real HTTP between two processes) — see `TEN-WP-0003`'s closure
notes for the exact commands.
## Live-lookup is not cyclic (TEN-WP-0011-T03)
`GET /tenants/{id}/roles/live` authorizes via `tenant.role.read.live` then
reads the store. That check does **not** re-enter tenant-engine:
1. The CheckRequest this engine sends has empty `context` and does not
carry `tenant_roles`.
2. `FlexAuthCheckClient` POSTs only `/v1/check`. Proven by
`tests/test_pip_claims.py::test_live_lookup_check_does_not_reenter_tenant_engine`.
3. flex-auth's tenant-engine policy package
(`flex-auth/examples/tenant-engine/policy_package.md`) matches
`subject.id` and `action` only. It does not consult tenant capability
roles. The package's own scope note says those roles are tenant state
a *different* protected system might consult via live-lookup;
conflating the two would authorize the wrong thing.
4. flex-auth's live-roles adapter is built and unwired
(`FLEX-WP-0015`, `flex-auth/docs/tenancy-posture-review.md`): no
non-test caller, no current policy consumes `tenant_roles` for a
privileged path.
Together: GET /roles/live → POST /v1/check is a service-identity question.
The PDP does not need tenant-engine claims to answer it, so it does not
call back.
Note: `tenant.role.read` / `tenant.role.read.live` / `tenant.read` /
`tenant.grouping.set` are not yet in that policy package's `valid_actions`.
A live flex-auth will currently `unknown_action` those four. That is
itself evidence they are not evaluated via tenant-role claims. Adding
them as static service-identity rules (same shape as
`tenant.guardrail.read`) is flex-auth work, not a cycle to unwind here.
## Unreachable-engine stance
Published in `pep-stance.yaml`. Every scope is `fail_closed`. DefaultDeny
(URL unset) and transport failure both apply that stance and record it.
Tests assert the file equals shipped behaviour.
## Configuration
| Env var | Default | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `TENANT_ENGINE_FLEX_AUTH_URL` | unset | Base URL of a reachable `flex-auth` deployment. When unset, `create_app()` falls back to `authz.DefaultDenyWriteAuthorizer` — no writes ever succeed, which is the correct posture for local/test runs that have no `flex-auth` to call. |
| `TENANT_ENGINE_FLEX_AUTH_TIMEOUT_SECONDS` | `3` | Bounded timeout on the synchronous write path — no retries, so a slow deny doesn't become a hang. |
| `TENANT_ENGINE_FLEX_AUTH_URL` | unset | Base URL of a reachable `flex-auth` deployment. When unset, `create_app()` falls back to `authz.DefaultDenyWriteAuthorizer`. |
| `TENANT_ENGINE_FLEX_AUTH_TIMEOUT_SECONDS` | `3` | Bounded timeout on the synchronous path — no retries. |
| `TENANT_ENGINE_FLEX_AUTH_TOKEN_FILE` | unset | Rotating bearer token file, read on each check. |
