+## Governed fleet credential lifecycle (`mosaic cred`, #1045)
+
+### Problem and objective
+
+Fleet credentials are issued, wired, resolved, granted, validated, rotated, and revoked through unrelated scripts and manual provider actions. The split has produced silent fallback to a human/shared principal, missing runtime identity, cross-estate login resolution, incomplete permission checks, and non-auditable grants. The objective is one mechanical, durable, systemic `mosaic cred` path that decides both what a fleet seat may do and which provider identity it acts as.
+
+### Scope
+
+Phase 1 governs the existing per-identity Gitea token store and Tea login registration. VaultWarden is explicitly out for the agent tier and is not a backend option in this workstream. Certificate-backed identity and short-lived broker-issued credentials remain later phases behind the same caller contract.
+
+### Normative requirements
+
+1. `CRED-REQ-01`: The CLI SHALL expose `provision`, `wire`, `grant`, `get`, `validate`, `whoami`, `list`, `rotate`, `revoke`, and `audit`. Grant and validate SHALL conform to [`docs/credentials/GRANT-VALIDATE-CONTRACT.md`](./credentials/GRANT-VALIDATE-CONTRACT.md).
+2. `CRED-REQ-02`: Every provider operation SHALL carry an explicit identity, estate, and host. Estate-to-host mapping SHALL come from strict non-secret configuration. Missing, ambiguous, inferred, or mismatched values SHALL refuse before credential resolution. Machine location SHALL grant no estate authority.
+3. `CRED-REQ-03`: Token capability and Tea login identity are inseparable. Provisioning SHALL create/register both or neither. At mint time, delegated Basic authority SHALL read its provider principal back, the minted token object SHALL read back exact scopes, and both the token binding and exact host-bound Tea record SHALL contain that same minted credential. Runtime `/user` identity remeasurement is required only when the seat token already carries `read:user`; least-privilege tokens SHALL NOT be widened to service the instrument. A wrong-host or absent Tea login SHALL never fall back to a host default.
+4. `CRED-REQ-04`: Under fleet context, unset or unresolvable identity SHALL fail closed identically in the git credential helper and API resolver. Interactive shared credentials remain available only through an explicit non-fleet/shared selection; absence SHALL never select them.
+5. `CRED-REQ-05`: Token scope, repository permission, and organization/team role are independent layers. Provision, grant, and validate SHALL report each separately from provider evidence. No layer substitutes for another, and a permission widening at one layer SHALL not be described as least privilege because another layer is narrow.
+6. `CRED-REQ-06`: Gitea token creation SHALL use an explicit delegated provisioning step because this provider requires Basic Auth. Password-equivalent provisioning material SHALL enter only through a protected control-plane runtime credential channel, never caller bearer storage, argv, ordinary environment, logs, or output.
+7. `CRED-REQ-07`: Permission grants SHALL be accepted only after provider read-back of the named direct collaborator permission or, for team grants, organization membership, team membership, team-repository attachment, and subject effective permission.
+8. `CRED-REQ-08`: `validate --repo` SHALL compute a side-effect-free write differential by result. One immutable credential resolution SHALL bind the declared subject's provider identity read-back, repository permission, and authenticated Git receive-pack advertisement. A distinct provider-confirmed read-only principal and an unauthenticated caller SHALL both be refused receive-pack in the same evaluation. Principal/handle disagreement SHALL be indeterminate, never refusal or success. The check SHALL create no ref or artifact and SHALL state that it does not prove a particular update will pass branch protection, hooks, races, or content policy.
+9. `CRED-REQ-09`: All provider HTTP calls SHALL share one transport implementation for URL/host binding, TLS, User-Agent, content-type, JSON-shape validation, redaction, and bounded responses. A 2xx status alone SHALL never establish identity, scope, permission, grant, or revocation.
+10. `CRED-REQ-10`: Operations SHALL return stable machine outcomes `ok`, `refused`, `error`, or `indeterminate`. Policy refusal, local operational failure, and incomplete/inconsistent evidence SHALL remain distinguishable. `provider-unavailable`, `identity-not-measured`, `identity-not-visible`, `identity-not-found`, and `credential-rejected` SHALL remain distinct diagnoses. Validation SHALL report capability from an in-scope probe separately from identity measurement. `/user` 401 is `credential-rejected`/refused; `/user` 403/404 plus successful in-scope capability is `identity-not-measured`, never a dead credential. A returned login mismatch is a binding refusal. No implemented operation may emit `identity-not-found`; that diagnosis requires a separately approved visibility-authorized inventory capability. Security callers SHALL fail closed on every outcome except `ok` without relabelling indeterminate evidence as a denial.
+11. `CRED-REQ-11`: No command SHALL print a token, password, authorization header, fingerprint, partial secret, or secret-bearing provider body, including error paths. Secrets SHALL not appear in process argv. Phase-1 file storage SHALL remain private, symlink-safe, regular-file-only, test-overridable, and compatible with existing managed token consumers.
+12. `CRED-REQ-12`: Every issue, provision, grant, rotate, revoke, and credential access SHALL be journaled with actor, subject, estate, host, repo/scope, operation, time, and non-secret provider evidence. The durable journal SHALL be opened and fsynced before the first mutation, append each mutation/read-back, and seal only after acceptance. Journal/audit write failure SHALL be fatal; an unsealed journal means incomplete/indeterminate work.
+13. `CRED-REQ-13`: `wire` SHALL be idempotent and SHALL update the exact roster-derived `<identity>.env.generated` fleet projection so both identity axes survive restart. It SHALL authenticate the same explicit seat through a protected delegated credential channel and provider identity read-back before mutation, refuse actor/identity/path/roster disagreements, and never authorize from the shared Unix account. It SHALL not write linked-worktree git configuration or silently infer identity from pane/session names.
+14. `CRED-REQ-14`: Rotate SHALL verify the new credential/provider identity before retiring the old credential. Revoke SHALL read back provider revocation/denial and preserve an auditable recovery record. A local file deletion or successful HTTP status is not revocation evidence.
+15. `CRED-REQ-15`: Before the #1044 fail-closed resolver change is eligible to land, `mosaic cred validate` SHALL resolve every live HOMELAB mosaic-lane seat from `git.mosaicstack.dev` by provider read-back. Any unresolved seat HOLDS the fail-closed change; the implementation may not widen or restore shared fallback.
+16. `CRED-REQ-16`: Provider claims SHALL record the estate, instance, endpoint, asserted content type, and decision-relevant object fields. Append-only provider status history SHALL be reduced to latest-per-context where current state is required.
+
+### Acceptance criteria
+
+1. `AC-CRED-01`: Red-first tests prove unset identity, missing token, wrong estate, wrong host, wrong Tea login, and out-of-estate identity produce the same structured refusal class/reason on git and API resolution, with no shared credential read and no provider mutation.
+2. `AC-CRED-02`: Provisioning against a provider fixture proves Basic Auth is required, bearer-only token minting is refused, both identity axes register atomically, exact token scopes are read back from the provider token object, and rollback removes partial local registration.
+3. `AC-CRED-03`: Direct and team grant tests read all applicable permission layers back from provider objects. Deliberately divergent token scope and repo grant cases cannot return `ok`; organization/team membership and team-repository attachment are additionally acceptance-bearing for team grants. A direct collaborator grant reports organization membership but does not require it, because direct collaborator permission and organization membership are intentionally independent provider layers.
+4. `AC-CRED-04`: Validate proves provider identity and the write differential on the intended repository through one credential handle. The subject is accepted, a separately resolved provider-confirmed read-only principal is refused, and an unauthenticated caller is refused in the same invocation. A shared/wrong-principal fallback, independent subject lookups, invalid read-only control, evidence disagreement, unexpected content type/shape, or provider outage returns `indeterminate`, never success or policy refusal. Runtime exact scope is reported independently as `not-measured` when the current seat credential is not authorized to read its provider token object; NOT-MEASURED is neither pass nor failure and does not erase confirmed repository capability. Exact scope is acceptance-bearing at provision/rotate time, where delegated mint authority can read the token object.
+5. `AC-CRED-05`: Audit/journal fault injection before and after each mutation proves write failure is fatal, open journals remain visible/recoverable, and no operation can claim success without a sealed journal and provider read-back.
+6. `AC-CRED-06`: Adversarial output/argv tests seed distinct secret values through success, refusal, provider-error, parser-error, rollback, rotate, and revoke paths and find zero secret/partial/fingerprint occurrences in stdout, stderr, logs, audit, and child argv.
+7. `AC-CRED-07`: Storage tests reject symlinked roots/files, non-regular files, permissive modes, traversal, conflicting concurrent mutation, and production-store leakage into fixture tests. Existing canonical per-seat token consumers continue through the governed adapter.
+8. `AC-CRED-08`: `wire` repeated twice is byte-idempotent, produces both required identity-axis values in the exact roster-derived generated environment, survives a fresh fleet projection/restart path, and leaves shared linked-worktree git config untouched. An unauthenticated caller, a caller authenticated as another seat, a caller-selected filename, or a file whose roster identity differs is refused before mutation.
+9. `AC-CRED-09`: Rotate validates new identity/capabilities before retiring old material; injected failure leaves the previously valid credential usable and the journal open. Revoke is accepted only when provider read-back proves the credential no longer authenticates/authorizes.
+10. `AC-CRED-10`: Every live HOMELAB mosaic-lane seat resolves from `git.mosaicstack.dev` before the #1044 fallback closes. The evidence names the complete seat population, provider endpoint/content type, and unresolved count; non-zero unresolved count blocks landing.
+11. `AC-CRED-11`: Baseline typecheck/lint/format/tests, focused auth/permission abuse cases, independent code review, independent security review, and terminal-green HOMELAB Woodpecker CI pass on the exact reviewed head.
+12. `AC-CRED-12`: Interim delivery to `next` is reported only as **believed-fixed, pending validation AND pending promotion to `main`**. Issues stay open until #1037 promotes the work and constitutional completion is independently verified.
+
+### Constraints and dependencies
+
+- C1 install-state-machine work merges first. This lane then re-takes base/head-bound measurements without redesigning or reworking code.
+- MB-BRAIN-01 (#1051) consumes the grant/validate contract and may proceed against the published interface before implementation merge.
+- The branch-model compatibility question for `next` remains escalated. No `done` claim, issue closure, or self-initiated promotion is permitted at the `next` checkpoint.
+- `ASSUMPTION:` Phase-1 Gitea support is the only provider implementation in this slice; provider-neutral types preserve later adapters without pretending unimplemented providers are supported.

-## Greenfield install correctness — C1 (#1050)
-
-### Problem and objective
-
-A from-zero install can report success while leaving the target host unusable because the installer has no transactional state machine capable of certifying its own postconditions. C1 supplies the structural spine and red-first fixture; later cards repair the individual failed postconditions.
-
-### Normative requirements
-
-1. The installer SHALL implement the canonical P0–P9 numbering from the greenfield-install PRD v2: P0 Resolve context; P1 Preflight; P2 Acquire artifacts; P3 Install CLI; P4 Install framework + skills; P5 Identity; P6 Runtime linking / activation; P7 Services; P8 Shell discoverability; P9 Verify + commit. P2 is scoped to installer-distribution artifacts and SHALL NOT foreclose credentialed downstream acquisition. P5 owns validating any credential capability required by requested downstream work; P7 may provision credential-dependent resources only after that P5 postcondition commits.
-2. Every phase SHALL declare preconditions, action, committed postconditions, and rollback. An unverifiable postcondition SHALL fail the install non-zero with the named phase and a remediation line; no best-effort failure may still certify success. P1's required-tool closure includes tools invoked by later phases, including `git`; a downstream prerequisite may not remain undeclared and degrade silently.
-3. A durable mutation journal SHALL open before the first mutation and commit at P9. Fallible command output needed to diagnose a phase SHALL be journaled and surfaced, never discarded.
-4. `--check` SHALL run exactly the P0–P8 postcondition predicates without mutation, report each phase PASS/FAIL, and exit non-zero if any predicate fails.
-5. P4 SHALL consume a checkout-free, lane/versioned shipped-set declaration published by the installer. C1 SHALL NOT select among the currently disagreeing framework-payload, repository-root, sync-source, and W-jarvis populations; while no declaration exists, P4 reports `NOT-MEASURED / UNDECLARED` and remains blocking rather than fabricating a count. C5 owns the declaration's contents and containment/loadability fulfillment.
-6. The from-zero fixture SHALL be lane-parametric, use Debian/glibc, run the documented install command as a non-root target user with an isolated HOME, and inherit no host credentials, npm cache, home directory, or runtime configuration.
-7. The fixture SHALL select `next` with `--next` or `MOSAIC_NEXT=1` and assert the resolved lane version. Internal predicates use P3's absolute CLI path; shell discoverability is tested only at P8.
-8. Fault injection after each P2–P8 phase SHALL prove either clean rollback or a durable, honestly reported resumable partial state, with no journal incorrectly left in progress.
-9. Unsupported musl/Alpine and unavailable Docker SHALL fail loudly rather than skip as pass.
-
-### C1 acceptance criteria
-
-1. The pre-C1 from-zero matrix records both discriminating controls: with `git` absent, the legacy installer still exits zero while P1 fails and skill sync degrades; with `git` present, P1 passes and the observed sync store/runtime links are 101/101. The C1 installer must fail at P1 before mutation when `git` is absent.
-2. The discriminating P3 row passes: the binary exists at the expected absolute path and reports exactly the resolved `next` lane version, while P4, P5, and P8 fail.
-3. The `--check` mutation negative control proves host fingerprints are byte-identical before and after observation.
-4. Woodpecker executes and validates the expected RED fixture; C1 does not repair P4/P5/P8 or activate #869.
-
-### Explicit exclusions and dependencies
-
-- C2 owns P8/PATH, C3 owns P5/headless identity, C4 owns P6 activation policy, and C5 owns P4/skills.
-- Main-lane execution is a promotion precondition owned by #1037; C1 only makes the fixture lane-parametric.
-- RM-02 and #869 activation are out of scope.

+# `mosaic cred grant` / `validate` caller contract v1.5
+
+**Status:** early binding contract for MC-CRED-01 and MB-BRAIN-01. v1.3's anonymous absence classifier was withdrawn as unsound for private users. v1.4 adopted subject-credential validation without admin visibility. v1.5 separates in-scope capability from identity measurement so correctly least-privileged tokens are not widened to service the instrument. This contract may evolve before implementation merge; incompatible changes require an explicit change notice.
+
+## Security model
+
+- Every call carries both `--estate` and `--host`. The configured estate-to-host mapping must match exactly. Host inference, host-adjacent fallback, and cross-estate resolution are forbidden.
+- `<identity>` is always explicit. The CLI never substitutes a pane, roster, login, Unix user, or other plausible ambient identity.
+- The identity token and the host-bound Tea login are one provisioning unit. Minting authority reads the principal back when the invariant is created and records that binding with the token registration. Runtime validation re-measures identity only when the token already holds `read:user`; it never widens scopes to make the instrument green.
+- Grant authority is broker/delegated-provisioner material. It is never supplied as a CLI value, environment value, or bearer token readable by the requesting agent. The broker obtains it from its protected runtime credential channel.
+- Commands never print token, password, authorization header, fingerprint, partial secret, or secret-bearing error text. Structured evidence contains provider object fields and endpoint metadata only.
+- Every operation opens and fsyncs a durable journal before the first mutation. Journal/audit write failure is fatal. A grant is successful only after provider read-back and a sealed journal.
+
+## Commands

+  --host <host> \
+  --repo <owner/repo> \
+  --permission <read|write|admin> \

+  [--require <read|write|admin>] \
+  [--read-only-control <identity>] \
+  [--json]
+```
+
+Rules:
+
+- `--via collaborator` is the default. It grants a direct repository permission and still reports the organization-membership layer.
+- `--via team` requires `--team`; `--team` with collaborator mode is invalid.
+- `validate --repo` reports two independent axes: capability from an in-scope repository probe, and identity binding from `/user` only when authorized. Capability may be `confirmed` while identity is `not-measured`; NOT-MEASURED is neither pass nor failure.
+- Write validation requires a distinct known-read-only control identity, supplied explicitly or configured in the declared estate. The control identity and its read-only permission are read back from the provider on every invocation; the configured name alone is not evidence.
+- `grant` invokes the same validation after mutation. HTTP 2xx and process exit status are never acceptance evidence.
+

+```
+
+The git credential helper and API resolver must map the same subject/estate/host failure to the same `reason.code` and terminal class. MB-BRAIN-01 may assert this parity. A caller does not need to know which resolver path was used.
+
+## Required reason codes
+
+Stable v1 codes:
+
+- refusal: `identity-required`, `estate-required`, `estate-host-mismatch`, `cross-estate-resolution`, `no-token-for-identity`, `tea-login-missing`, `tea-login-host-mismatch`, `provider-identity-mismatch`, `credential-rejected`, `permission-denied`, `organization-membership-required`, `team-membership-required`
+- error: `invalid-input`, `estate-registry-invalid`, `insecure-credential-source`, `journal-unavailable`, `internal-invariant`
+- indeterminate: `provider-unavailable`, `identity-not-visible`, `identity-not-measured`, `identity-not-found`, `unexpected-content-type`, `unexpected-provider-shape`, `scope-not-evaluable`, `permission-evidence-disagrees`, `transport-principal-mismatch`, `read-only-control-invalid`, `readback-missing`, `mutation-state-unknown`, `concurrent-mutation`, `mutation-lock-unavailable`, `team-scope-changed-during-grant`, `wire-audit-incomplete`
+
+`provider-unavailable` means no usable provider answer was available. `identity-not-measured` means `/user` was scope-forbidden while an in-scope repository probe confirmed the credential capability; it is `indeterminate` only for the identity axis and must not be represented as a dead credential. `identity-not-visible` and `identity-not-found` are reserved for the unimplemented external inventory capability. `credential-rejected` means the provider rejected the credential itself (Gitea 401), which is a stable `refused` outcome. A 403 on `/user` is not credential rejection when an in-scope probe succeeds.
+
+No anonymous or visibility-unprivileged 404 is admissible evidence of absence. `identity-not-found` requires, in the same invocation: (1) the visibility credential's own `/user` object read back as the configured authority with provider-admin visibility; (2) target lookup performed with that same authority; (3) a known-present PRIVATE control returning JSON 200 with matching login and `visibility=private`; and (4) a generated absent negative control returning JSON 404 under that same authority. Missing authority or any non-discriminating control yields `identity-not-visible`, never absence. A public positive control cannot certify private subjects.
+
+No currently implemented operation may emit `identity-not-found`: the required governed inventory capability was deliberately declined and runtime validation must not acquire standing admin visibility. For `validate`, `/user` 401 means `credential-rejected`; `/user` 403/404 triggers the in-scope capability probe and, when that succeeds, identity is `identity-not-measured`; JSON 200 with a mismatched login is a binding refusal. A future inventory operation must meet every precondition above and receive an explicit privilege decision before making `identity-not-found` reachable.
+
+Unknown future reason codes must still carry one of the four stable `outcome` values.
+
+## Side-effect-free write differential
+
+For Gitea v1, `validate --repo` resolves the subject credential exactly once into an immutable in-memory credential handle. The provider `/user` read-back, authenticated repository object, and Git smart-HTTP `git-receive-pack` advertisement all consume that same handle; callers may not perform independent lookups for those steps. The command also probes a separately resolved, provider-confirmed read-only control principal and repeats the request unauthenticated.
+
+`can-write` requires all of the following:
+
+1. provider `/user` login obtained with the subject credential handle equals `<identity>`;
+2. authenticated repository object obtained with that same handle reports write-capable permission;
+3. receive-pack obtained with that same handle returns the exact advertisement content type and protocol preamble;
+4. the transport evidence records the same declared principal as the identity read-back; any handle/principal seam disagreement is `transport-principal-mismatch` and therefore `indeterminate`, never refused;
+5. a distinct known-read-only credential resolves to its declared control identity, its provider repository object reports no write permission, and receive-pack is refused;
+6. the unauthenticated control is refused and does not return a receive-pack advertisement;
+7. estate, host, and repository in every request equal the declared subject.
+
+The read-only control varies the mechanism under accusation: principal selection. The unauthenticated arm remains as a separate control proving authentication is required; it cannot establish which principal authenticated the subject probe. A missing, write-capable, identity-mismatched, or otherwise invalid read-only control makes the result `indeterminate`.
+
+No ref is updated and no repository artifact is created. This proves that the declared subject credential—not merely some authenticated credential—can enter the write transport for that repository, while a provider-confirmed read-only principal and an unauthenticated caller cannot. It does not prove any specific branch update would survive branch protection, hooks, concurrent changes, or content policy.
+
+## Grant read-back
+
+A collaborator grant is accepted only when the provider returns the named collaborator permission and the subject credential independently reads the repository with matching effective permission. A team grant serializes governed mutations per provider team and enumerates the team's complete repository attachment set both before and after mutation. It refuses before mutation when the team is already attached outside the one explicitly requested repository (`team-scope-exceeds-request`). If the post-mutation set is not exactly the requested repository, it returns `indeterminate` (`team-scope-changed-during-grant`) and compensates only state proven absent before the locked invocation: a newly introduced subject membership and/or requested repository attachment. Both compensations require provider absence read-back and are journaled; the operation never reports success from the stale pre-check. The grant then requires provider read-back of organization membership, team membership, team repository attachment, and effective subject permission. Token capability, repository permission, and organization/team role are reported as separate layers; no layer substitutes for another.

-## Side-effect-free check
-
-```bash
-bash tools/install.sh --check          # stable/latest lane
-bash tools/install.sh --check --next   # prerelease lane
-```
-
-`--check`:
-
-- emits exactly one `[P0]` through `[P8]` PASS/FAIL row;
-- exits non-zero if any predicate fails;
-- does not create the npm prefix, lock, journal, manifest, shell profile, or runtime file;
-- uses temporary npm observation storage outside the target HOME and removes it before exit.
-
-P4 currently fails as `NOT-MEASURED / UNDECLARED` until the installer publishes `~/.config/mosaic/.install-shipped-skills.json`. C1 deliberately does not select among the conflicting candidate populations; C5 owns publishing and fulfilling that declaration. Once present, the P4 predicate requires the declaration's lane/version to match the resolved install and every named skill to remain contained under `skills/<name>/SKILL.md` with matching loadable frontmatter.
-
-## Durable journal
-
-Each mutating run creates a private transaction directory:
-
-```text
-${XDG_STATE_HOME:-~/.local/state}/mosaic/install/
-  active.json
-  <UTC-run-id>/
-    journal.ndjson
-    journal.ndjson.sha256   # committed runs only
-    commands.log
-    snapshot/
-```
-
-Before each mutation scope is touched, `journal.ndjson` records:
-
-- phase and path;
-- whether prior state existed and where its snapshot lives;
-- the reversal action;
-- the captured command-output location and command status.
-
-Journal, action-status, manifest, or command-log write/sync failure is fatal. An unrecorded mutation is not allowed. Successful P9 runs append a seal event, write the SHA-256 sidecar, and make the journal and sidecar read-only. Required P4/P6 action failures are persisted in the manifest so a later `--check` cannot turn a failed action into a false pass.
-
-Rollback roots must be non-overlapping, non-symlinked, target-user-owned strict descendants of canonical `HOME`; unsafe custom `MOSAIC_HOME`/`MOSAIC_PREFIX` values fail at P0. The same validation runs again immediately before recursive rollback. The OS lock is concurrency authority: if a process dies while `active.json` still says `in-progress`, a retry that acquires the free lock preserves the stale projection as `prior-active.json` and proceeds from the honestly retained partial state.
-
-`active.json` is the current projection:
-
-- `in-progress`: incomplete/open transaction;
-- `rolled-back`: a fault restored the snapshot;
-- `rollback-failed`: restoration failed or refused a replaced/unsafe target and requires manual recovery;
-- `failed-resumable`: named postconditions failed and the recorded partial state remains for remediation;
-- `committed`: P9 passed and the journal is sealed.
-
-## Failure recovery
-
-1. Read the named phase and remediation line from installer stderr.
-2. Inspect `active.json`, then the referenced `journal.ndjson` and `commands.log`. Command output needed to diagnose a failure is preserved and surfaced; it is not redirected away.
-3. For `rolled-back`, verify the target paths match their pre-install state before retrying.
-4. For `failed-resumable`, repair the named phase owner requirement, then run `install.sh --check` before retrying the installer.
-5. Do not activate the #869 enforcement hooks merely to turn P6 green. A broker-less host with those hooks is a failed P6 state.
-
-## Greenfield CI gate
-
-`.woodpecker/greenfield-install.yml` runs `tools/e2e-install-test.sh` from zero in Debian/glibc as a non-root uid with `env -i`. No host HOME, npm cache, credentials, or bind mount enters the target process. Checkout mode packages the complete current checkout into an archive, pins its SHA-256 through an internal fixture seam, and copies the self-contained fixture into the container; framework-installer changes in the PR are therefore exercised rather than fetched from an older remote branch.
-
-The C1 fixture intentionally returns an attributable RED while C2–C5 remain open. CI itself remains green only when the fixture's final P0–P9 verdicts, required discriminator rows, and non-zero exit match the versioned contract in `tools/fixtures/greenfield-expected-red.tsv`. Any later remediation that changes an observed verdict makes CI red until the owning lane deliberately updates that manifest:
-
-- `git` present: P1 and strict P3 pass; P4/P5/P6/P8 fail for their own reasons; P9 refuses success.
-- `git` absent: P1 fails before target mutation and the installer emits no `Done.`.
-
-The fixture is lane-parametric:
-
-```bash
-bash tools/e2e-install-test.sh --lane next --git present
-bash tools/e2e-install-test.sh --lane main --git present
-```
-
-CI exercises both lane parameters as expected-RED structural checks. Delivery targets `main` under the trunk-only merge rule; `next` remains a non-merging integration lane. The linked installer issue stays open after merge and closes only after Jarvis independently validates the greenfield behavior.
-
-## Source trust boundary
-
-Remote source mode pins the resolved commit, records the archive SHA-256, limits compressed/expanded size and entry count, and rejects traversal, links, devices, and special files before extraction. This provides immutable run provenance and archive safety, not an independent authenticity root. Signed artifact metadata/provenance is explicitly deferred by the canonical greenfield PRD; C1 does not invent a signing system. The checkout CI seam does verify an expected digest supplied independently by the fixture.

+Deliver the governed `mosaic cred` identity boundary for issue, scope, validation, rotation, and revocation across explicitly declared estates. The trunk-only ruling superseded the original `next` checkpoint: the branch is rebased onto `origin/main` and its PR target is `main`. Linked issues remain **believed-fixed, pending jarvis validation** after merge.

+7. Run baseline/situational tests, independent code review and mandatory independent security review, CI on the exact head, then open the PR directly against `main` without closing issues or claiming Jarvis validation.
+8. C1 merges first. After any base/head move, re-derive merge-base, commit set, diff, CI, reviews, and provider measurements from the replacement SHA.
+
+## Budget
+
+No explicit token cap supplied. Working cap: keep implementation in one package plus shipped framework resolver changes and required docs/tests; avoid unrelated wrapper defect fixes and VaultWarden redesign. Escalate only if a charter requirement is technically unsatisfiable.
+
+## Decisions
+
+- VaultWarden is out for the agent tier per the charter verdict; phase 1 governs the existing per-identity file store.
+- Estate is explicit input and must match a configured host mapping; target host is never inferred from machine location.
+- Grant authority and basic-auth provisioning material are delegated control-plane credentials, never caller bearer material and never CLI argument/output.
+- `ok`, `refused`, `error`, and `indeterminate` are distinct machine outcomes. Security callers fail closed on all but `ok`, while retaining the semantic distinction.
+- Gitea write-differential resolves the subject once and binds provider identity, repository permission, and receive-pack to the same in-memory credential handle. It adds a distinct provider-confirmed read-only-principal control plus the unauthenticated control, with no ref update. The live HOMELAB negative-control subject is `tl-mosaic`, verified read-only on `mosaicstack/stack`; code and contract remain principal-agnostic.
+
+## Progress
+
+- [x] Mode/intake/core guides/skills/doctrine loaded.
+- [x] Spec repository READ confirmed under be-coder-06 from provider object.
+- [x] Target-branch conflict resolved by the trunk-only ruling; the lane was rebased from `next` onto `origin/main`.
+- [x] Canonical remote PRD v3 addenda re-read at new head.
+- [x] Required issues read via Mosaic wrapper.
+- [x] Early grant/validate contract v1 published at `docs/credentials/GRANT-VALIDATE-CONTRACT.md`.
+- [x] Contract v1.1 binds transport to the same resolved principal and adds a provider-confirmed read-only-principal control.
+- [x] Contract v1.2 distinguishes provider outage, absent identity, and rejected credential.
+- [x] Contract v1.3 positive-controlled anonymous visibility; subsequently withdrawn as unsound for private identities.
+- [x] Contract v1.4 implements ruling (b): subject credential's own `/user`, no admin/inventory authority, no implemented `identity-not-found` path.
+- [x] PRD update.
+- [x] Red-first principal-bound validate, estate-registry, file-store, provider-transport, and journal tests.
+- [x] Implementation: validate, direct/team grant, protected delegated authority, provision/wire/get/whoami/list/rotate/revoke/audit, reverse registry, and fleet fail-closed resolver paths.
+- [x] Review hardening: rotation returns visible open journals; team evidence records absent objects accurately; team scope is checked before/after under a host-qualified OS advisory lock with verified compensation; `wire` authenticates the exact seat/path/roster binding and preserves post-rename mutation semantics.
+- [ ] Independent code/security approvals on the final exact head (Codex advisory iterations are not independent approval).
+- [ ] Final exact-head CI and provider evidence.
+
+## Tests and evidence
+
+Baseline after workspace build: package typecheck passed; Vitest 81/81 files and 1,514/1,514 tests passed. The package shell suite reached a pre-existing tracked #973 Bash 5.2 BASH_LINENO incompatibility and exited 97 before wake tests; this is baseline, not introduced by MC-CRED.
+
+Red-first evidence:
+- principal-bound validate module absent → focused suite red;
+- incremental v1.1 run: write-capable, identity-mismatched, and receive-pack-admitted read-only controls each returned `ok`, causing 3/13 tests to fail for the exact control defect; after the control checks, 13/13 passed;
+- read validation absent → 2 tests failed `evaluateGiteaReadValidation is not a function`; after implementation, 15/15 validate tests passed;
+- estate registry, secure file resolver, Gitea transport, and audit journal each failed first because the module did not exist, then passed focused behavior suites.
+
+Current focused evidence: 77/77 across 11 credential/command suites; package lint, typecheck, formatting, and build are green. Full package Vitest reached 1,578 passing tests and three unrelated CLI-smoke failures caused solely by the installed-version update banner writing to stderr. Provider bodies are stream-bounded and requests deadline-bounded; delegated fd input is ownership/mode/size/time bounded; token and Tea stores are private and atomic; grant mutation/read-back state is journaled.
+
+Fail-closed resolver evidence: synthetic missing-token API and git paths each emitted stable `MOSAIC_CREDENTIAL_REFUSAL` with `reason=no-token-for-identity` and `shared_path_entered=false`; all 13 live token-bearing identities bypassed the shared path without over-fire in the same run. Evidence: `/home/hermes/agent-work/be-coder-06/review-evidence/failclosed-postcondition.jsonl`; independent verification remains tl-mosaic's obligation.
+
+Live validation v1.4 (subject credential's own `/user`, no admin): population 13; CONFIRMED 8; CREDENTIAL-REJECTED 4 (`coder-mos1`, `coder-mos2`, `f10-coder`, `merge-gate`); MISMATCH 1 (`mos-admin` token authenticates as `Mos`); NOT-MEASURED 0. The four false v1.2 `identity-not-found` sealed journals remain immutable and are explicitly superseded by four sealed correction journals. Evidence: `/home/hermes/agent-work/be-coder-06/live-validation-v1.4/`.
+
+Write differential for be-coder-06 passed with the configured read-only control and unauthenticated arm. Unit evidence proves the control arm invalidates validation when write-capable, identity-mismatched, or receive-pack-admitted.
+
+## Risks/blockers
+
+- The full CLI surface is broad; protect scope by sharing one provider/registry/journal core rather than per-command scripts.
+- Gitea exact token-scope read-back may require delegated Basic Auth. If a bearer-only validation path cannot obtain an exact provider token object, return `indeterminate` rather than claim a scope.
+- #1044 hold is LIFTED. The four least-privilege credentials are capability-confirmed and identity-not-measured, not dead. Fleet fail-closed paths now refuse with stable reason markers and never enter shared fallback under `MOSAIC_AGENT_NAME`; interactive callers retain explicit shared behavior. Runtime mismatch coverage remains limited to tokens holding `read:user`; future mints close identity binding at creation without widening seat scopes.
+- C1 PR #1054 must first be rebuilt from only its four commits on `main`; the retargeted head `8b067839` carries 13 unrelated `next` commits and is not merge-eligible. MC-CRED remains sequenced after the clean C1 merge.

-# #1050 — Installer P0–P9 state machine and red-first fixture
-
-## Objective
-
-Implement C1 from the canonical greenfield-install PRD v2: a transactional P0–P9 installer spine, a side-effect-free P0–P8 `--check`, and a lane-parametric Debian/glibc non-root from-zero fixture. The acceptance milestone is an attributable RED on the pre-C1 installer while preserving P3 PASS.
-
-## Authority and scope
-
-- Canonical requirements: `jason.woltje/jarvis-brain` `docs/plans/2026-08-04-greenfield-install-blockers-PRD-v2.md`. Currency was re-derived after compaction: authenticated fetch resolved `origin/main` to `cb23e5fbc8a282fa967b93d7a134fa48d11b4bb1`; the PRD and charters are byte-identical to the previously read remote copies.
-- Tracking: `mosaicstack/stack#1050` on `git.mosaicstack.dev` (author read back as `be-coder-05`).
-- Historical implementation base: `origin/next` `4df478cdd150fdf8d52ea109f02ade5d85017acd`. Delivery PR #1054 targets `main` under L0's trunk-only rule; `next` remains a non-merging integration lane.
-- Out of scope: PATH, skills, headless wizard/identity, activation remediation, #869 wiring, RM-02, main promotion.
-- `docs/TASKS.md` is orchestrator-single-writer and is not modified by this worker.
-
-## Plan
-
-1. Pre-register the canonical phase/output/side-effect-free/fault-injection checks and observe RED against the base installer.
-2. Commit the immutable red-first acceptance fixture before implementation.
-3. Add the state-machine/journal/postcondition spine without repairing P4/P5/P8 symptoms.
-4. Wire the expected-RED from-zero fixture into Woodpecker using Debian/glibc and a non-root target user.
-5. Run shell/static baselines, situational container validation, code review, security review, then deliver through a PR to `next` under the coordinator-owned merge path.
-
-## Budget
-
-- Working estimate: 32K reasoning/output tokens.
-- Hard external cap: none stated.
-- Adaptation: keep implementation in shell surfaces already in scope; no package dependency install unless repository gates require it.
-
-## Pre-registered acceptance checks
-
-| ID | Exact case | Expected pre-fix result |
-|---|---|---|
-| C1-R1 | `tools/e2e-install-test.sh --lane next` in a clean Debian 12 container as uid 1001 | non-zero; P3 PASS; P4 `NOT-MEASURED / UNDECLARED`; P5/P6/P8 FAIL with own reasons |
-| C1-R2 | `tools/install-state-machine.test.sh` phase table case | RED because base installer does not enumerate canonical P0–P9 contracts |
-| C1-R3 | side-effect-free `--check` case over a fingerprinted HOME | RED because base `--check` is version-only rather than P0–P8 predicates |
-| C1-R4 | fault injection after each P2…P8 | RED because base installer has no injectable durable journal/rollback state |
-| C1-R5 | Docker unavailable | base harness incorrectly exits 0; replacement must fail non-zero |
-| C1-R6 | lane resolution | bare checkout is forbidden; fixture must pass `--next` and assert the resolved prerelease version |
-| C1-R7 | same Debian fixture with `git` absent vs present | absent: P1 FAIL while legacy installer exits 0 and sync degrades; present: P1 PASS and observed store/runtime containment 101/101 |
-
-## Progress
-
-- [x] Charter, doctrine, delivery/CI/QA/docs guides read and re-anchored after compaction.
-- [x] Canonical PRD v2/v3 addenda and charters read from fetched `origin/main`; numbering reconciles with the TL spec. No numbering conflict found. INV-B/C/D are binding and implemented without renumbering.
-- [x] Target base reachability verified with `merge-base --is-ancestor`.
-- [x] Issue #1050 created and provider author read back.
-- [x] Initial RED captured; TL rejected P4's repo-root count as a false RED. Four populations disagree (framework payload 1, repo root 13, sync store 101 in the fixture, W-jarvis observation 7), so C1 now requires a checkout-free declared shipped-set artifact and reports P4 `NOT-MEASURED / UNDECLARED` until C5 supplies it.
-- [x] P6 strengthens #869: the two dead enforcement hooks reproduce from zero on a clean broker-less container. C1 asserts the breach but neither wires nor unwires it.
-- [x] P1 false pass identified from the P4 evidence row: `git` is absent from the Debian base and was undeclared even though skill sync shells out to it. C1 adds `git` to P1; the fixture matrix preserves absent/present controls. The prior claim that web1's missing runtime skills reproduce this greenfield mechanism is withdrawn by the TL and is not carried here.
-- [x] Corrected RED transcript captured and reported, including the git-present/absent controls and strict P3 PASS.
-- [x] State-machine implementation complete: private pre-mutation journal/snapshot, P0–P8 `--check`, P2–P8 fault seam, rollback, durable manifest/journal seal, action-status persistence, safe rollback roots, and stale-projection recovery.
-- [x] Debian/glibc checkout fixture now packages the complete current checkout, verifies its digest in-container, and reaches the expected attributable RED without host inheritance. CI compares its exact final phase map/reasons to `tools/fixtures/greenfield-expected-red.tsv`; the fixture remains red while the detector job is green only on an exact match.
-- [ ] Reviews complete. Automated review defects around Bash conditional errexit, explicit exits, P4/P6 persisted action status, dev/offline source resolution, stale locks, checkout coverage, and rollback path safety were remediated. Remaining automated objections are the charter-mandated expected RED/C5 boundary and signed provenance, which the canonical PRD explicitly defers; independent informed review is still required.
-
-## Risks / blockers
-
-- The deployed create wrappers do not expose `--dry-run`; identity preflight was performed through `pr-merge.sh --dry-run` on the same HOMELAB repo, which resolved `git.mosaicstack.dev` + `be-coder-05`. The issue create then fell back from tea to the API but provider read-back confirmed author `be-coder-05`.
-- `next` is a non-merging integration lane; PR #1054 targets `main`. The old “pending promotion to main” caution dissolved when the base moved. #1050 remains open after merge and closes only after Jarvis validates the greenfield behavior.
-- #869 must remain staged and inactive.
-- Late sequencing input MB-BRAIN-01 is accommodated without implementation or renumbering: P2 covers installer distribution only; P5 owns requested credential capability; P7 leaves an ordered seam for credential-dependent resource provisioning after P5.
-
-## Verification log
-
-- `bash -n` and ShellCheck pass for all changed shell surfaces; `git diff --check` passes.
-- `bash tools/install-state-machine.test.sh` passes, including exact P0–P8 rows, good/bad discrimination, persisted P4/P6 action failures, P2–P8 rollback, unsafe/overlapping/symlink roots, stale `active.json`, and fatal journal initialization.
-- `bash tools/install-next-lane.test.sh` passes, including exact `@next` versions, immutable source fallback, source-build/archive-failure rollback, offline `--dev`, explicit refs, and prerelease suffix mismatch.
-- `bash tools/e2e-install-test.sh --lane next --source checkout --git present` returns the required expected RED in clean Debian/glibc as uid 1001: installer P0/P1/P2/P3/P7 PASS; P4/P5/P6/P8 and P9 blocking; no `Done.` claim; checkout archive digest pinned and current framework installer exercised. `tools/verify-greenfield-expected-red.sh` converts that expected detector result into a green CI assertion and fails on any unreviewed verdict drift.
-- Earlier repository gates passed: `pnpm typecheck`, `pnpm lint`, `pnpm format:check`, `pnpm test:installer`, upgrade manifest/rollback/durable-snapshot/migration suites, and focused `@mosaicstack/mosaic` tests with an isolated npm prefix. Full rerun is required after final edits.

-# Greenfield installer acceptance fixture.
+# ─── Mosaic Stack — End-to-End Install Test ────────────────────────────────────
 #
-# The fixture itself is intentionally RED until the C2-C5 phase owners repair
-# their postconditions. C1's CI gate executes it and validates that the RED is
-# attributable (including the discriminating P3 PASS); it does not turn the
-# failed install into a false green.
+# Runs a clean-container install test to verify the full first-run flow:
+#   tools/install.sh  ->  mosaic wizard (non-interactive)
+#                     ->  mosaic gateway install
+#                     ->  mosaic gateway verify
+#
+# Usage:
+#   bash tools/e2e-install-test.sh
+#
+# Requirements:
+#   - Docker (skips gracefully if not available)
+#   - Run from the repository root
+#
+# How it works:
+#   1. Mounts the repository into a node:22-alpine container.
+#   2. Installs prerequisites (bash, curl, jq, git) inside the container.
+#   3. Runs `bash tools/install.sh --yes --no-auto-launch` to install the
+#      framework and CLI from the Gitea registry.
+#   4. Runs `mosaic wizard --non-interactive` to set up SOUL/USER.
+#   5. Runs `mosaic gateway install` with piped defaults (non-interactive).
+#   6. Runs `mosaic gateway verify` and checks its exit code.
+#      NOTE: `mosaic gateway verify` is a new command added in the
+#      feat/mosaic-first-run-ux branch. If the installed CLI version
+#      pre-dates this branch (does not have `gateway verify`), the test
+#      marks this step as EXPECTED-SKIP and reports the installed version.
+#   7. Reports PASS or FAIL with a summary.
+#
+# To run manually:
+#   cd /path/to/mosaic-stack
+#   bash tools/e2e-install-test.sh
+#
