# ADR-008 — relocated

Drafts 1–4 of the multi-tenancy framework were written here. On 2026-08-17 the
operator determined that multi-tenancy is part of the IT-security framework
NetKingdom provides, so the framework belongs in NetKingdom canon beside the
IAM Profile and the tenant-engine boundary contract.

**It now lives at `net-kingdom/canon/standards/tenancy-posture_v0.1.md`.**

Two things changed on relocation:

1. The five dimensions were renamed from **planes** to **axes**. NetKingdom's
   accepted `platform-identity-security-architecture` already uses *plane* for
   a trust and deployment layer (bootstrap / platform control / tenant), and
   two senses of one word in one canon is a concept-ownership collision.
2. The opening claim that the estate "has never written down what it is
   building" was corrected. That architecture document has described the trust
   and tenant model since 2026-07-23. What was actually missing is a way to say
   how far a given service has got.

This stub remains so that the ADR-008 identifier resolves rather than
dangling. It is not a second copy and must not be edited as one.

The publication renderer that lived in `tools/` moved to `policy-nexus`, which
owns publication.
