# INTENT ↔ SCOPE Reassessment — Post WP-0007
**Date:** 2026-06-17
**Author:** codex
**Trigger:** WARDEN-WP-0007 complete; WARDEN-WP-0008 T1.
**Prior assessment:** `history/2026-06-17-intent-scope-reassessment.md`
---
## 1. Executive summary
WARDEN-WP-0007 shipped the **opt-in flex-auth policy gate** (`policy.py`,
`policy.enabled` in `warden.yaml`) and recorded **production OpenBao health**
evidence (initialized, unsealed, v2.5.4). Signing behavior is unchanged when
the gate is off (default). Production end-to-end `warden sign` against the SSH
engine remains operator-verified — tracked in WARDEN-WP-0008 T2.
**Vector movement:** `D5/A3/C3/R2`**`D5/A3/C4/R2`**
| Dimension | Was | Now | Notes |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Discovery | D5 | D5 | Unchanged |
| Availability | A3 | A3 | CLI + opt-in policy gate |
| Completeness | C3 | **C4** | Policy gate coded; flex-auth policies external |
| Reliability | R2 | R2 | Health probe yes; live sign pending operator token |
---
## 2. Deliverables (WP-0007)
| Task | Deliverable | Status |
| --- | --- | --- |
| T1 | `history/2026-06-17-openbao-production-verify.md` | Done (health) |
| T2 | `PolicyConfig`, `policy.py` | Done |
| T3 | CLI wire-in, `policy_decision_id` in log | Done |
| T4 | `tests/test_policy.py`, wiki updates | Done |
---
## 3. Success criteria (INTENT.md) — updated
| Criterion | Was | Now |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Worker knows which subsystem for each credential type | Yes | Yes |
| SSH access short-lived, inventoried, audited | Yes | **Yes** — + optional flex-auth correlation id |
| ops-bridge integrates via cert_command | Yes | Yes |
| NetKingdom evolution reflected in ops-warden docs | Yes | Yes |
| Non-SSH secrets stay out of ops-warden | Yes | Yes |
**Score: 5 yes** (live production sign is reliability, not INTENT criterion gap)
---
## 4. Remaining gaps (post WP-0008 closeout, 2026-06-18)
| Prio | Gap | Owner | Task |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| P1 | flex-auth `ssh-certificate` policies | flex-auth | WP-0009 |
| P2 | NK-WP-0009 joint SSH tutorial | net-kingdom | Parallel |
| P3 | ops-bridge `cert_command` on live tunnels | ops-bridge | Deferred |
WP-0008 closed: production sign verified; stewardship canon and archive hygiene done.
---
## 5. Recommendation
- **Completeness C4:** SSH lane + stewardship docs + opt-in policy gate shipped.
- **Reliability R3:** production `warden sign` evidence on file (2026-06-18).
- Keep `policy.enabled: false` in production until flex-auth policies exist (WP-0009).
