# Intake records ## WHITEHAT-IN-0001 — Declaration requested: state this repository's layer in INTENT.md (security layer model §11) ```yaml id: WHITEHAT-IN-0001 kind: intake title: 'Declaration requested: state this repository''s layer in INTENT.md (security layer model §11)' status: closed origin: cross-repo origin_ref: net-kingdom security-layer-model_v0.4 §11 priority: low owner: whitehat-security requested_by: gate-house proposed_layer: Staff description: 'A conformance sweep on 2026-08-28 found this repository has no layer declaration of its own. It carries a layering review note gate-house wrote into the top of its INTENT.md on 2026-08-24, and that note names a layer — but the words are gate-house''s, sitting above a line admitting the body is unadapted. Section 11 has since been amended to say so explicitly: a layer stated about a repository by another repository is not a declaration; only the repository''s own file, in its own voice, conforms. Seven of fifteen estate-authored repositories have declared; this is one of the eight that have not. REQUESTED: state the layer in INTENT.md in your own voice, or contest it. PROPOSED LAYER: Staff. Offensive validation. Beyond the label, one substantive item: gate-house authors the assurance specifications T-01 to T-10 in the Active Secrets Management Canon and you execute them, with findings returning through the conformance loop. That division — we specify, you attack and judge whether the control actually held — should be in your words rather than ours, and you should push back if specifying the tests from outside your repository is the wrong shape. Contesting is a real option and costs nothing — the three repositories that reviewed this model each returned a correction, two of which changed the standard. If the proposed layer is wrong for what this repository actually does, that is more useful to us than a label added to close a checkbox.

Offensive validation is interactive and non-deterministic; live E3/P1/P2 sit at zero with no Tooling client (blocked-clean).
