Declare Engine/PIP machine-readably, publish a total fail-closed PEP stance map, stop minting local decision ids on engine-unavailable DENY, bind allows to a 30s request lifetime, confine the local authorization double, classify evidence and emit a denial/revocation heartbeat, and prove access-control facts remain claims.

USER-WP-0024 — security layer model conformance
Adopt the accepted NetKingdom Security Layer Model
(net-kingdom/canon/standards/security-layer-model_v0.7.md, companion
net-kingdom/SECURITY-COMPANION.md) as this repository's own declaration
and close the implementation gaps that leave a PEP-shaped Engine short of
the standard.
Assessment:
history/2026-08-29-security-layer-scope-intent-assessment.md.
Working references: ops-warden/layer.yaml and
kings-guard/layer.yaml (no Tooling contacts). Credential and lane
questions go to ops-warden, not this workplan.
T01 — Declare Engine/PIP in own voice
id: USER-WP-0024-T01
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "ee4c6a3c-a48c-5508-85c1-a02c6a0b1d11"
Replace the gate-house review note in INTENT.md with this repository's
own declaration: frontmatter layer: Engine, role: PIP, plus prose that
subject context is a claim, never a decision, and that protected
mutations are PEP-shaped without changing layer. Restate SCOPE.md from
that INTENT. Record the scope-vs-intent-vs-implementation assessment
under history/.
Done 2026-08-29. Closes the declaration half of USER-IN-0001. Does not
by itself make the runtime conforming.
T02 — Machine-readable layer declaration and check
id: USER-WP-0024-T02
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "2874fd05-5b54-5812-9e89-2832408e488b"
Add layer.yaml (or equivalent) naming Engine/PIP, empty catalogued
Tooling contacts, non-Tooling / own-store clients (PostgreSQL modeled
concept, State Hub, env-injected secrets, flex-auth Engine API, OIDC
claim input), and the path of the PEP stance map. Adapt
kings-guard/scripts/check_layer_conformance.py and a unit test so an
undeclared OpenBao, Vault, LDAP, or cluster client fails the commit that
introduces it.
Done 2026-08-29. layer.yaml, scripts/check_layer_conformance.py, and
tests/test_layer_conformance.py. Checker exits 0; a synthetic hvac
import fails the scan.
T03 — PEP obligations on the production path
id: USER-WP-0024-T03
status: done
priority: high
state_hub_task_id: "caf7ef66-d221-5548-947b-17b5ff1865ee"
Ship the four §6.4 obligations for this PEP-shaped Engine.
Done 2026-08-29. pep-stance.yaml is total fail-closed including unknown
and equals user_engine.pep_stance. Unavailable DENY sets
stance_applied and decision_id=None. Allows are request-bound with a
30s lifetime. LocalAuthorizationCheckPort raises when
USER_ENGINE_FLEX_AUTH_TOKEN_FILE is set; runtime.py does not import
it.
T04 — Evidence bound and cadence
id: USER-WP-0024-T04
status: done
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "b4cebd66-21d0-5a6d-b718-971af70bebb6"
Classify local audit and outbox events as load-bearing or attributive. Keep mutation+audit+outbox atomic in the store transaction (already true). For denials and membership/account revocations — low-volume load-bearing classes — declare a heartbeat or reconciliation, not a rate.
Done 2026-08-29. src/user_engine/evidence.py,
UserEngineService.record_evidence_heartbeat(),
docs/evidence-classification.md. Operability copy no longer says
audit correlation completeness.
T05 — Access-control facts remain claims
id: USER-WP-0024-T05
status: done
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "f1ac9244-0639-5e97-8981-babdbe8991e5"
Prove under statute §6.1 that hats, access profiles, and
AccessControlFact exports cannot be mistaken for an authorization
decision.
Done 2026-08-29. tests/test_evidence.py forbids effect fields on claim
shapes and asserts hat selection and export never return allow/deny.
docs/hats-realms-services-assets-access-profiles.md states the
consumer contract.
T06 — Close the intake and request the stance-map row
id: USER-WP-0024-T06
status: done
priority: medium
state_hub_task_id: "81ecfc55-2b23-53cd-9269-c7211bad8bd9"
Mark USER-IN-0001 answered: Engine/PIP, not contested. Message
gate-house with the declaration path, the PEP-shaped finding for
statute §13.1 (user-engine is a third PEP-shaped consumer; the register
currently has one published row), and a pointer at this workplan for the
runtime follow-through.
Done 2026-08-29. Intake marked answered in intakes/intakes.md. Message
c014d12a-fe7a-4a90-ba73-03a5ac3e7f73 to gate-house carries the
declaration, the non-contest, and the §13.1 request (row to be added
when pep-stance.yaml ships in T03).
