secrets-engine (SECRETS-WP-0003) shipped a native secret-exec front door
(`secrets-engine route/exec`, decision e6381a56) and asked ops-warden to route to it.
Bernd's call: route-primary, proxy-fallback — surface the secrets-engine exec as the
primary path for owned lanes, keep `warden access --exec` as a transparent fallback.
T1 — RouteEntry gains exec_owner/exec_command/pointer_command (+ has_native_exec),
screened for secret material like the other handoff fields. whynot-design-npm-publish
points its native exec at secrets-engine. `warden access` renders Primary (secrets-engine
exec) + Fallback (warden proxy); route/access JSON gain the fields and a native-exec-aware
next_action. Tests added; 217 pass, lint clean.
T2 — credential-routing.md adds secrets-engine as the secret-exec owner (route primary,
proxy fallback); SCOPE adds secrets-engine to Related Repos and records the npm lane as
production-exercised (@whynot/design@0.4.0); playbook leads with secrets-engine exec and
fixes the fallback one-liner (--field NPM_AUTH_TOKEN, --no-policy) per whynot-design.

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.

- wiki/OperatorAccessAssist.md: warden access contract, conduit-vs-broker
boundary, the three guardrails + catalog secret guard, lane semantics.
- AccessRouting.md: issue/route/assist roles; reconciled the anti-pattern
table so the transparent conduit no longer contradicts it.
- credential-routing.md rule: added warden access + "standing broker
forbidden, transparent --fetch sanctioned" anti-pattern.
- INTENT.md: pointer→assist charter extension. SCOPE.md: implemented
list + Getting Oriented + maturity A4→A5 (Availability).
- history decision record for the proxy-mode choice and guardrails.
WP-0014 finished (T1–T5). 172 passed, lint clean.

- Align agent files with on-disk workplan prefixes (infer from workplan ids)
- Set workplan domain to registered domain_slug; add topic_slug where applicable
- Repair frontmatter delimiter formatting; migrate legacy task status literals
- Regenerate AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, and .claude/rules from State Hub templates
Implements WARDEN-WP-0010 (charter + pointer catalog). ops-warden issues
short-lived SSH certificates and routes every other credential need to the
subsystem that owns it — no desk metaphor, one execution lane.
- wiki/AccessRouting.md: role/boundary, issue-vs-route matrix, anti-patterns
- registry/routing/catalog.yaml: machine-readable pointer layer (6 active + 1
draft). No-double-source rule enforced structurally — authored steps/cert_command
only on the warden_executes:true SSH entry; every wiki_ref anchor resolves
- wiki/CredentialRouting.md: catalog-keyed index + no-duplicate-interfaces note
- INTENT/SCOPE/AGENTS/repo-boundary/capability: aligned to the new framing;
SCOPE notes A3 -> A4 lands with WP-0011 warden route CLI
- WP-0011/0012 + WP-0010: state_hub id writeback; WP-0010 marked done

- Post-WP-0007 reassessment and SCOPE/README updates
- AGENTS.md + workplan-convention task status canon migration
- examples/warden.production.example.yaml for production OpenBao
- Archive WP-0004 through WP-0007 to workplans/archived/260617-*
- WP-0008 T1/T3/T4 done; T2/T5 wait on operator/flex-auth
Update SCOPE and README to reflect the shipped warden CLI, fill agent
rules for stack/architecture/boundary, archive finished workplans
0001–0003, and register WP-0004 in State Hub.
