WP-0014 made ops-warden the operator access front door (warden access --fetch/--exec
proxies an exec_capable secret as the caller), but every discovery surface still told
the pre-WP-0014 "SSH certs only, pointer not key" story — so agents like whynot-design
never found the proxy and concluded they had to message ops-warden for a token value.
Messaging/discoverability only; the conduit security model is unchanged (no custody,
no broker).
T1 — CLI: `warden route` table warden column is now three-valued (issue/assist/route);
route + access JSON gain warden_role + exec_capable and a proxy-aware next_action;
`warden access` closing line leads with "ops-warden can fetch this for you as the
caller" for exec_capable lanes (route-only lanes keep "owner vends").
T2 — .claude/rules/credential-routing.md reframed (lead + routing table role column);
SCOPE one-liner + a second capability block for the access front door.
T3 — registered the State Hub capability "Operator access front door (caller-identity
fetch proxy)" (the hub had no ops-warden security capability at all); messaged
whynot-design the corrected `warden access "npm auth token" --fetch/--exec` path.
210 tests pass, lint clean.

Adds `warden access <need> [--domain X] [--json]`: resolves a credential
need against the routing catalog and renders the structured handoff
(owner, auth method, path template, command skeleton, policy gate
status, proxy hint). SSH lane points at `warden sign`; routed lanes end
"warden advises, the owner vends". New pure warden/access.py module
(expand_handoff, policy_gate_status) reused by the T3 proxy lane. JSON
output is stable and secret-free. tests/test_access.py added.
157 passed, lint clean.
