# Flex-Auth Workplan Planning Map

Date: 2026-05-15

## Purpose

This document captures the current sequencing view for flex-auth workplans.

## Priority Scale

| Priority | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| `P0` | Current mainline implementation work. |
| `P1` | Next integration work once core contracts exist. |
| `P2` | Delegated/backend expansion after core shape stabilizes. |
| `complete` | Finished foundation or completed decision work. |

## Current Ordering

| Workplan | Priority | Status | Depends On | Current View |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `FLEX-WP-0001` | complete | done | none | Repo intent, boundaries, and authorization landscape research are complete. |
| `FLEX-WP-0005` | P0 | todo | `FLEX-WP-0001` | Foundations and Topaz alignment: ADR-001/002/003, Go skeleton, `FlexAuthResourceManifest` schema pin, Topaz mapping spike, IAM Profile citation, ops-warden boundary clarification. |
| `FLEX-WP-0002` | P0 | blocked | `FLEX-WP-0001`, `FLEX-WP-0005` | Standalone policy-as-code core: schemas, local registry, Rego-in-Markdown policy packages, check APIs, explanations, decision log, CLI/service skeleton, tests. |
| `FLEX-WP-0003` | P1 | blocked | `FLEX-WP-0002` | Markitect consumer integration: resource namespace, manifest import, action vocabulary, decision fixtures, integration docs. |
| `FLEX-WP-0004` | P2 | blocked | `FLEX-WP-0002`, `FLEX-WP-0005` | Delegated PDP and directory adapters: Topaz adapter implementation (evaluation already done in `0005`), OpenFGA/SpiceDB, OPA/Cedar, Keycloak Authorization Services, Entra/Graph/SCIM. |

## Dependency Notes

`FLEX-WP-0005` is inserted between `0001` and `0002` per the
pre-implementation assessment in `docs/pre-implementation-assessment.md`.
It pulls forward the decisions the original `0002` left implicit (language,
policy format, evaluator alignment) and runs the Topaz mapping spike
before the core's schemas and check API are written.

`FLEX-WP-0002` comes after `0005` so the standalone evaluator embeds the
OPA Rego library and produces decision envelopes shaped to match the
delegated-mode envelopes added later.

`FLEX-WP-0003` follows the core. Markitect has already completed its
side of the contract in `MKTT-WP-0014`; flex-auth pins the manifest in
`FLEX-WP-0005 T03` and implements the service-side registry and decision
behavior in `0003`.

`FLEX-WP-0004` waits for the standalone core for the same reason as
before, but its Topaz evaluation task moved to `0005 T04`; this workplan
now implements the Topaz adapter against the spike's output.

## State Hub Mirror

Native State Hub dependency edges:

- `FLEX-WP-0005 -> FLEX-WP-0001`
- `FLEX-WP-0002 -> FLEX-WP-0005`
- `FLEX-WP-0002 -> FLEX-WP-0001` (preserved)
- `FLEX-WP-0003 -> FLEX-WP-0002`
- `FLEX-WP-0004 -> FLEX-WP-0002`
- `FLEX-WP-0004 -> FLEX-WP-0005` (Topaz adapter consumes the spike)
