+## 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.

+# `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
+
+```text
+mosaic cred grant <identity> \
+  --estate <estate> \
+  --host <host> \
+  --repo <owner/repo> \
+  --permission <read|write|admin> \
+  [--via <collaborator|team>] \
+  [--team <team>] \
+  [--read-only-control <identity>] \
+  [--json]
+
+mosaic cred validate <identity> \
+  --estate <estate> \
+  --host <host> \
+  [--repo <owner/repo>] \
+  [--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.

+## Refusal object
+
+A refusal is intentionally recognizable without prose:
+
+```json
+{
+  "schemaVersion": 1,
+  "operation": "validate",
+  "outcome": "refused",
+  "exitCode": 10,
+  "retryable": false,
+  "subject": {
+    "identity": "external-seat",
+    "estate": "homelab",
+    "host": "git.example.invalid",
+    "repo": "owner/repo"
+  },
+  "mutation": "none",
+  "reason": {
+    "code": "no-token-for-identity",
+    "message": "The explicit identity has no credential in the declared estate."
+  },
+  "evidence": {
+    "providerIdentity": null,
+    "tokenCapabilities": {
+      "state": "not-measured",
+      "scopes": [],
+      "source": "runtime-not-authorized"
+    },
+    "repositoryPermission": null,

+    "teamMembership": null,
+    "writeDifferential": null
+  },
+  "audit": {
+    "journalId": "opaque-id",
+    "state": "sealed"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+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.

-# npm `@next` prerelease lane
-
-Status: **IMPLEMENTED**
-
-## Current behavior
-
-`tools/install.sh --next` provides the prerelease integration lane for the permanent `next` branch.
-
-The lane is fast-by-default:
-
-1. Install framework files from the `next` source archive.
-2. Resolve the Gitea npm registry `next` dist-tag for the globally installed packages:
-
-   ```bash
-   npm view @mosaicstack/gateway@next version
-   npm view @mosaicstack/mosaic@next version
-   ```
-
-3. Require both resolved versions to share the same `next.<pipeline>` suffix, then install the exact resolved versions.
-4. If either `@next` package is missing, unreachable, mismatched, or fails to install, fall back to the source-build path at `next`.
-
-`--next` never hard-fails solely because the prerelease npm dist-tag is unavailable.
-
-## Published packages
-
-The `next` publish pipeline publishes non-private `@mosaicstack/*` packages to the Mosaic Gitea npm registry:
-
-```text
-https://git.mosaicstack.dev/api/packages/mosaicstack/npm/
-```
-
-Observed `next` dist-tags after enabling the pipeline:
-
-```text
-@mosaicstack/mosaic@next  -> 0.0.49-next.1633
-@mosaicstack/gateway@next -> 0.0.7-next.1633
-```
-
-The gateway also publishes a Docker image as `gateway:sha-<short>` on `next` merges. The installer fast path uses the npm gateway package when available; the Docker image is for deployed gateway/runtime harness flows.
-
-## Explicit source lanes
-
-Source builds remain available and are still the authority for explicit ref validation:
-
-- `--dev` always builds from source.
-- `--ref <ref>` / `MOSAIC_REF=<ref>` wins over `--next` and uses the source path for that exact ref.
-
-## Pipeline shape
-
-1. Trigger on `next` merges.
-2. Compute the next prerelease version from the upcoming stable version plus the Woodpecker pipeline number (`<target-stable>-next.<CI_PIPELINE_NUMBER>`).
-3. Build and publish non-private packages in CI.
-4. Publish to the Mosaic Gitea npm registry with dist-tag `next`.
-5. Keep `latest` untouched; only main/release promotion can update `latest`.
-6. Publish gateway Docker images from `next` as `gateway:sha-<short>` only.
-
-## Guardrails
-
-- `@next` is mutable prerelease convenience, not a deployment pin.
-- Stable installs continue to use `@latest`.
-- Contributor validation remains available through `--dev --ref <branch>`.
-- Pipeline output traces every prerelease package back to the source commit on `next`.
-- The installer falls back to source rather than hard-failing on prerelease registry issues.

-`next` never publishes npm `latest` or Docker `latest`. The next npm publish step verifies that `@mosaicstack/mosaic@next` resolves to the computed prerelease before the pipeline can pass.

+
+## Objective
+
+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.
+
+## Requirements sources
+
+- Charter: `/home/hermes/agent-work/tl-mosaic/CHARTER-MC-CRED-01-be-coder-06.md`
+- Stack issues: #1045, #1043, #1044, #1047, #1049, #1013, #1007; promotion #1037; consumer #1051
+- Remote spec: `jason.woltje/jarvis-brain` origin/main `b7687d51f4efe52e43dbcd6dc95b5554b3332957`
+- Greenfield PRD v3 addenda: INV-B durable journal, INV-C visible failure diagnostics, INV-D supported fixture
+- Binding doctrine: `/src/jarvis-brain/infra/fleet/FLEET-DOCTRINE.md`
+
+## Plan
+
+1. Publish grant/validate v1 caller contract for MB-BRAIN-01.
+2. Add repo PRD requirements and preregister acceptance tests.
+3. Implement explicit estate registry, secure current file-store adapter, durable operation journal/audit, provider transport, and terminal result types.
+4. Implement `grant` and side-effect-free `validate`; then provision/wire/get/whoami/list/rotate/revoke/audit.
+5. Make git and API resolver refusals identical and fail closed under fleet context.
+6. Reconcile live HOMELAB seats through each subject credential's own `/user`; #1044 hold is lifted, and its fail-closed change carries the pre-registered mechanism evidence (resolver refusal marker, same-run marker positive control, confirmed-lane negative arm).
+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.

-# B1 / @next Durable Publish Pipeline — Design
-
-## Objective
-
-Make `next` a durable integration line that publishes the artifacts required by downstream federation boot tests without manual builds.
-
-Every merge to `next` publishes:
-
-1. **npm prerelease packages** to the Gitea npm registry with dist-tag `next`.
-2. **Gateway container image** tagged only as `gateway:sha-<short>`.
-
-The existing stable release behavior remains isolated to `main` / tags.
-
-## Registry verification
-
-Target registry: `https://git.mosaicstack.dev/api/packages/mosaicstack/npm/`.
-
-Pre-implementation checks:
-
-- `npm view @mosaicstack/mosaic dist-tags --registry https://git.mosaicstack.dev/api/packages/mosaicstack/npm/ --json` returned a dist-tags object (`latest: 0.0.48`).
-- `npm view @mosaicstack/mosaic@latest version --registry https://git.mosaicstack.dev/api/packages/mosaicstack/npm/` resolved `0.0.48`.
-- `@next` currently returns 404 because no `next` dist-tag exists yet; this is expected before the first next prerelease publish.
-
-Pipeline design includes a post-publish verification that `npm view @mosaicstack/mosaic@next version` resolves to the exact CI-computed prerelease version. If Gitea fails to honor the `next` dist-tag, the pipeline fails closed.
-
-## Version scheme
-
-The prerelease version is computed at publish time only; no `package.json` version changes are committed.
-
-For each non-private `@mosaicstack/*` package:
-
-```text
-<target-stable>-next.<CI_PIPELINE_NUMBER>
-```
-
-Where:
-
-- `CI_PIPELINE_NUMBER` is Woodpecker's monotonic pipeline number.
-- `target-stable` is the package's current committed stable version with the patch component incremented.
-  - Example: `@mosaicstack/mosaic` `0.0.48` publishes as `0.0.49-next.1626`.
-  - Example: `@mosaicstack/gateway` `0.0.6` publishes as `0.0.7-next.1626`.
-
-Rationale:
-
-- npm semver sorts `0.0.49-next.1627` above `0.0.49-next.1626`.
-- The prerelease does not overtake the future stable `0.0.49`.
-- The monotonic pipeline number avoids conflicts across repeated `next` merges.

-
-The pipeline has explicit branch checks inside the publish commands as a second fail-closed layer beyond Woodpecker `when` clauses.
-
-## Implementation plan
-
-1. Widen `.woodpecker/publish.yml` top-level `when` to include `next` so the publish pipeline runs on next merges.
-2. Keep existing `publish-npm` on `main` / tags only.
-3. Add `publish-next-npm` for `next` push/manual only:
-   - configure Gitea npm auth from existing `gitea_token` secret as `NPM_TOKEN`;
-   - preflight registry dist-tag metadata;
-   - compute prerelease versions in CI by temporarily editing package manifests in the workspace;
-   - run `pnpm publish ... --tag next` against non-private `@mosaicstack/*` packages;
-   - verify `@mosaicstack/mosaic@next` resolves to the computed version.
-4. Split image `when` anchors:
-   - `image_build_when` includes `next` and is used by `build-gateway`;
-   - `main_image_build_when` keeps appservice/web on main/tags only.
-5. Keep gateway next image destinations to `sha-<short>` only; no `latest` on next.
-
-## Risk controls
-
-- Auth/registry failures are fatal.
-- No manual image build/push path is introduced.
-- No production `latest` tags are touched from `next`.
-- No `@latest` npm dist-tags are touched from `next`.
-- All changes live in CI config and docs; no runtime source behavior changes.

-# B2 — Fresh-install skills sync path
-
-## Problem
-
-Greenfield wizard on `next` reported:
-
-```text
-Skills sync script not found at ~/.config/mosaic/bin/mosaic-sync-skills
-Skills: install failed
-```
-
-## Diagnosis
-
-The framework install migration removed the legacy `~/.config/mosaic/bin/` directory and now installs framework helper scripts under:
-
-```text
-~/.config/mosaic/tools/_scripts/
-```
-
-`packages/mosaic/src/stages/finalize.ts` still resolved wizard helper scripts from `mosaicHome/bin`, so wizard-selected skills failed even though `mosaic-sync-skills` was present in the current framework layout.
-
-## Fix
-
-- Resolve framework helper scripts through `tools/_scripts/<name>` first.
-- Keep a legacy `bin/<name>` fallback for pre-migration installs.
-- Point missing-script warnings at the current `tools/_scripts` layout.
-- Update the finalize skills test fixture to model the fresh framework layout.
-- Update framework README examples from legacy `bin/` helper paths to `tools/_scripts/`.
-
-## Verification
-
-- Unit: `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic test -- finalize-skills`
-- Gates: `pnpm typecheck`, `pnpm lint`, `pnpm format:check`, `pnpm build`
-- Fresh path: ran `packages/mosaic/framework/install.sh` with a temp `MOSAIC_HOME` and `MOSAIC_SYNC_ONLY=1`; verified `tools/_scripts/mosaic-sync-skills` exists, legacy `bin/mosaic-sync-skills` does not, and the script installs a selected fake `lint` skill into Mosaic + Pi runtime skill directories.

-# B3 — Wizard completion ordering
-
-## Problem
-
-The wizard printed the success summary / `Mosaic is ready.` during `finalizeStage`, before the gateway configuration stage had completed its daemon health check. If the gateway health gate later failed, the user could see a success claim followed by a gateway failure.
-
-## Diagnosis
-
-`finalizeStage` handled both mutation work and terminal success messaging. Wizard paths then ran `gatewayConfigStage` and `gatewayBootstrapStage` afterward:
-
-1. finalize writes config, links runtime assets, syncs skills, runs doctor;
-2. finalize prints `Installation Summary` + `Mosaic is ready.`;
-3. gateway config starts/waits for daemon health;
-4. gateway bootstrap runs.
-
-The summary needed to be deferred until after the gateway readiness gates.
-
-## Fix
-
-- `finalizeStage` now returns a `showSummary()` callback and supports `deferSummary`.
-- Wizard/quick-start paths call finalize with `deferSummary: true`.
-- `showSummary()` is called only after gateway config reports ready and bootstrap completes, or immediately when the caller explicitly skips gateway setup.
-- If gateway health/config reports not ready, the wizard returns/aborts without printing the success summary.
-- Folded in adjacent runtime install hint fix for Pi: `curl -fsSL https://pi.dev/install.sh | sh`.
-
-## Verification
-
-- Added unified-wizard coverage for summary-after-health and no-summary-on-health-failure.
-- Targeted: `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic test -- unified-wizard finalize-skills`
-- `pnpm format:check`
-- `pnpm typecheck`
-- `pnpm lint`
-- `pnpm build`
-- `pnpm test`
-- Codex code review: approve.
-- Codex security review: one low finding on the requested Pi `curl | sh` install hint; no security finding in the wizard completion-ordering change.

-# B4 — Wizard step deduplication
-
-## Problem
-
-Greenfield wizard testing showed completed wizard steps could be executed again after the menu marked them `[done]`. In practice this made the Providers/API-key flow and Skills flow appear twice in one wizard run.
-
-There was a second related API-key duplication path: when the Providers step was completed with no key, `gatewayConfigStage` still prompted for `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` during Finish because it only skipped the gateway API-key prompt when `providerKey` was non-empty.
-
-## Diagnosis
-
-- `runMenuLoop` labeled completed sections with `[done]`, but still dispatched the selected step again if the user selected that row.
-- Quick Start ran Providers and Skills but did not mark those sections complete in `completedSections`.
-- `runFinishPath`/`quickStartPath` defaulted `providerType` to `none` for gateway config, which made it impossible for `gatewayConfigStage` to distinguish:
-  - provider step completed and user intentionally skipped the key, vs.
-  - provider step was never run.
-
-## Fix
-
-- Added a shared menu section key helper and a completed-step guard in `runMenuLoop`.
-- Completed menu steps now log a skip message instead of re-running their stage.
-- Quick Start marks Providers and Skills complete after running them.
-- Finish/Quick Start now pass `state.providerType` as-is to gateway config instead of defaulting to `none`.
-- `gatewayConfigStage` treats `providerType: 'none'` as an explicit completed provider setup with no key and skips the second gateway API-key prompt.
-
-## Verification
-
-- Added unified wizard regression coverage asserting repeated Providers/Skills menu selections only execute each stage once.
-- Added gateway config coverage asserting `providerType: 'none'` does not prompt for a gateway API key and writes no API key env var.
-- Targeted: `pnpm --filter @mosaicstack/mosaic test -- unified-wizard gateway-config`
-- `pnpm format:check`
-- `pnpm typecheck`
-- `pnpm lint`
-- `pnpm build`

-# FED-M3-10 — Federation M3 Integration Tests
-
-## Objective
-
-Add single-gateway gateway integration tests for M3 acceptance #6 and #7.
-
-## Branch / base
-
-- Branch: `feat/federation-m3-integration`
-- Base: `origin/next` (`838701bd` after M3-06/#683 merge)
-- PR base when unblocked: `next`
-
-## Scope
-
-- Real PostgreSQL via `@mosaicstack/db`.
-- Mocked TLS context / Fastify request shim for `FederationAuthGuard`.
-- Direct controller calls using the real M3 route contract: `POST /api/federation/v1/list/:resource` with body `{ limit?, cursor? }`.
-- Gated by `FEDERATED_INTEGRATION=1`.
-- No federation harness dependency.
-
-## Fixture notes
-
-Aligned with the B2 seed design vocabulary:
-
-- `tasks` visibility uses personal `projects` + `missions` chain.
-- `notes` are `mission_tasks.notes`; the integration suite asserts subject-only note visibility on an authorized mission.
-- Seed includes a second user and unauthorized team/project tasks to prove exclusion from the max-row-cap list result.
-- Grants/peers are direct DB fixtures; cert auth still runs through `FederationAuthGuard` using real X.509 certs generated by existing test helpers.
-
-## Current implementation
-
-Added `apps/gateway/src/__tests__/integration/federation-m3-list.integration.test.ts` covering:
-
-1. M3 #6 — cert missing Mosaic OIDs returns 401 federation `unauthorized` envelope.
-2. M3 #6 — valid cert whose grant row is `revoked` returns 403 federation `forbidden` envelope.
-3. M3 #7 — active grant with `max_rows_per_query: 2` caps `list tasks`, returns `_truncated` + `nextCursor`, source-tags rows, and excludes other-user / unauthorized-team tasks.
-4. Cross-user notes invariant — subject can list their own `mission_tasks.notes` row while another user's note on the same authorized mission is excluded.
-5. Unsupported-resource invariant — `list widgets` fails closed with a federation `scope_violation` envelope.

-# Installer `--next` fast npm lane — 2026-06-25
-
-## Scope
-
-Flip `tools/install.sh --next` from source-build-first to fast npm `@next` first, with source fallback.
-
-## Registry reality check
-
-Gitea npm registry: `https://git.mosaicstack.dev/api/packages/mosaicstack/npm/`
-
-Verified before implementation:
-
-- `@mosaicstack/mosaic@next` resolves to `0.0.49-next.1633`.
-- `@mosaicstack/gateway@next` resolves to `0.0.7-next.1633`.
-- `@mosaicstack/gateway` dist-tags include `latest: 0.0.6` and `next: 0.0.7-next.1633`.
-- `apps/gateway/package.json` is non-private and has Gitea npm `publishConfig`.
-
-Conclusion: the installer can fast-install both CLI and gateway npm packages for `--next`. The gateway Docker `gateway:sha-<short>` remains the deployment/harness artifact; the npm gateway package is valid for the installer global package path.
-
-## Behavior
-
-- `--next` with no explicit ref:
-  1. framework archive from `next`;
-  2. resolve `@mosaicstack/gateway@next` and `@mosaicstack/mosaic@next`;
-  3. require both resolved versions to share the same `next.<pipeline>` suffix;
-  4. install the exact resolved package versions;
-  5. set `MOSAIC_GATEWAY_SKIP_NPM_INSTALL=1` so wizard does not overwrite the prerelease gateway;
-  6. if either package is missing/unreachable/mismatched/fails, fall back to existing source build at `next`.
-- `--dev` remains pure source build.
-- explicit `--ref` / `MOSAIC_REF` still wins over `--next` and uses the source path for that exact ref.
-
-## Install detail
-
-The installer writes the scoped npmrc mapping (`@mosaicstack:registry=...`) and then runs npm install without overriding npm's default registry. Passing `--registry=<gitea>` to `npm install` forces public transitive dependencies (for example `@anthropic-ai/sdk`) to resolve from Gitea and breaks the fast path; the scoped npmrc mapping is the correct split-registry behavior.
-
-## Verification notes
-
-- Added `tools/install-next-lane.test.sh` with a fake npm/source harness for exact-version fast install, registry failure source fallback, explicit-ref precedence, and mismatched suffix warning.
-- Wired the installer harness into `pnpm test` via `pnpm run test:installer`.
-- Real temp-prefix fast install succeeded with `@mosaicstack/[email protected]` and `@mosaicstack/[email protected]`.

-- `tools/install.sh`
-- README/install documentation
-- Follow-up design note for future npm `@next` prerelease publishing
-
-## Plan
-
-1. Add `--next` and `MOSAIC_NEXT=1` as source-build shorthand for `next`.
-2. Preserve explicit ref precedence: `MOSAIC_REF` and `--ref` win over `--next`.
-3. Update installer source display/help text.
-4. Document three lanes:
-   - stable npm `@latest`
-   - prerelease `--next`
-   - contributor `--dev --ref X`
-5. Run shell and repo gates locally, then hold before push/PR until runner serialization greenlight.

-- `bash tools/install.sh --check --cli --next --ref feature-x` — source display shows explicit ref wins.
-- `MOSAIC_NEXT=1 MOSAIC_REF=feature-env bash tools/install.sh --check --cli` — source display shows explicit env ref wins.
-- `pnpm install --frozen-lockfile --prefer-offline --store-dir /home/jarvis/.local/share/pnpm/store` — pass (local override for repo `.npmrc` CI store path).
-- `pnpm typecheck` — pass (41 successful tasks).
-- `pnpm lint` — pass (23 successful tasks).
-- `pnpm format:check` — pass.
-- `bash tools/e2e-install-test.sh` — attempted; current baseline fails during gateway health after stable registry install because Valkey is unavailable in the clean container. The `tools/install.sh --yes --no-auto-launch` stage itself completed before the downstream gateway verification failure.

 Skill names are direct children using `[A-Za-z0-9][A-Za-z0-9._-]*`, not paths. Registration rejects traversal/control characters and never replaces foreign files, directories, or symlinks; unregister removes only links that point inside the canonical Mosaic skill root.
