Add post-quantum cryptography support with PqSoftCryptoProvider

- Implemented PqSoftCryptoProvider for software-only post-quantum algorithms (Dilithium3, Falcon512) using BouncyCastle.
- Added PqSoftProviderOptions and PqSoftKeyOptions for configuration.
- Created unit tests for Dilithium3 and Falcon512 signing and verification.
- Introduced EcdsaPolicyCryptoProvider for compliance profiles (FIPS/eIDAS) with explicit allow-lists.
- Added KcmvpHashOnlyProvider for KCMVP baseline compliance.
- Updated project files and dependencies for new libraries and testing frameworks.

 2. Update image digests in the relevant Compose file(s).
 3. Re-run `docker compose config` to confirm the bundle is deterministic.
 
+### Mock overlay for missing digests (dev only)
+
+Until official digests land, you can exercise Compose packaging with mock placeholders:
+
+```bash
+# assumes docker-compose.dev.yaml as the base profile
+USE_MOCK=1 ./scripts/quickstart.sh env/dev.env.example
+```
+
+The overlay pins the missing services (orchestrator, policy-registry, packs-registry, task-runner, VEX/Vuln stack) to mock digests from `deploy/releases/2025.09-mock-dev.yaml` and starts their real entrypoints so integration flows can be exercised end-to-end. Replace the mock pins with production digests once releases publish; keep the mock overlay dev-only.
+
 Keep digests synchronized between Compose, Helm, and the release manifest to preserve reproducibility guarantees. `deploy/tools/validate-profiles.sh` performs a quick audit.
+
+### GPU toggle for Advisory AI
+
+GPU is disabled by default. To run inference on NVIDIA GPUs:
+
+```bash
+docker compose \
+  --env-file prod.env \
+  -f docker-compose.prod.yaml \
+  -f docker-compose.gpu.yaml \
+  up -d
+```
+
+The GPU overlay requests one GPU for `advisory-ai-worker` and `advisory-ai-web` and sets `ADVISORY_AI_INFERENCE_GPU=true`. Ensure the host has the NVIDIA container runtime and that the base compose file still sets the correct digests.

+# StellaOps Helm Install Guide
+
+This guide ships with the `stellaops` chart and provides deterministic install steps for **prod** and **airgap** profiles. All images are pinned by digest from `deploy/releases/<channel>.yaml`.
+
+## Prerequisites
+- Helm ≥ 3.14 and kubectl configured for the target cluster.
+- Pull secrets for `registry.stella-ops.org` (or your mirrored registry in air-gapped mode).
+- TLS/ingress secrets created if you enable ingress in the values files.
+
+## Channels and values
+- Prod/stable: `deploy/releases/2025.09-stable.yaml` + `values-prod.yaml`
+- Airgap: `deploy/releases/2025.09-airgap.yaml` + `values-airgap.yaml`
+- Mirror (optional): `values-mirror.yaml` overlays registry endpoints when using a private mirror.
+
+## Quick install (prod)
+```bash
+export RELEASE_CHANNEL=2025.09-stable
+export NAMESPACE=stellaops
+
+helm upgrade --install stellaops ./deploy/helm/stellaops \
+  --namespace "$NAMESPACE" --create-namespace \
+  -f deploy/helm/stellaops/values-prod.yaml \
+  --set global.release.channel=stable \
+  --set global.release.version="2025.09.2" \
+  --set global.release.manifestSha256="dc3c8fe1ab83941c838ccc5a8a5862f7ddfa38c2078e580b5649db26554565b7"
+```
+
+## Quick install (airgap)
+Assumes images are already loaded into your private registry and `values-airgap.yaml` points to that registry.
+```bash
+export NAMESPACE=stellaops
+
+helm upgrade --install stellaops ./deploy/helm/stellaops \
+  --namespace "$NAMESPACE" --create-namespace \
+  -f deploy/helm/stellaops/values-airgap.yaml \
+  --set global.release.channel=airgap \
+  --set global.release.version="2025.09.0-airgap" \
+  --set global.release.manifestSha256="d422ae3ea01d5f27ea8b5fdc5b19667cb4e3e2c153a35cb761cb53a6ce4f6ba4"
+```
+
+## Mirror overlay
+If using a mirrored registry, layer the mirror values:
+```bash
+helm upgrade --install stellaops ./deploy/helm/stellaops \
+  --namespace "$NAMESPACE" --create-namespace \
+  -f deploy/helm/stellaops/values-prod.yaml \
+  -f deploy/helm/stellaops/values-mirror.yaml \
+  --set global.release.version="2025.09.2" \
+  --set global.release.manifestSha256="dc3c8fe1ab83941c838ccc5a8a5862f7ddfa38c2078e580b5649db26554565b7"
+```
+
+## Validate chart and digests
+```bash
+deploy/tools/check-channel-alignment.py --manifest deploy/releases/$RELEASE_CHANNEL.yaml \
+  --values deploy/helm/stellaops/values-prod.yaml
+
+helm lint ./deploy/helm/stellaops
+helm template stellaops ./deploy/helm/stellaops -f deploy/helm/stellaops/values-prod.yaml >/tmp/stellaops.yaml
+```
+
+## Notes
+- Surface.Env and Surface.Secrets defaults are defined in `values*.yaml`; adjust endpoints, cache roots, and providers before promotion.
+- Keep `global.release.*` in sync with the chosen release manifest; never deploy with empty version/channel/manifestSha256.
+- For offline clusters, run image preload and secret creation before `helm upgrade` to avoid pull failures.

+# Mock Overlay (Dev Only)
+
+Purpose: let deployment tasks progress with placeholder digests until real releases land.
+
+Use:
+```bash
+helm template mock ./deploy/helm/stellaops -f deploy/helm/stellaops/values-mock.yaml
+```
+
+Contents:
+- Mock deployments for orchestrator, policy-registry, packs-registry, task-runner, VEX Lens, issuer-directory, findings-ledger, vuln-explorer-api.
+- Image pins pulled from `deploy/releases/2025.09-mock-dev.yaml`.
+
+Notes:
+- Annotated with `stellaops.dev/mock: "true"` to discourage production use.
+- Swap to real values once official digests publish; keep mock overlay gated behind `mock.enabled`.

+  description: |
+    Fact-only advisory/linkset retrieval for Policy Engine consumers.
+
+    ## Philosophy
+    Link-Not-Merge (LNM) provides raw advisory data with full provenance:
+    - **Link**: Observations from multiple sources are linked via shared identifiers.
+    - **Not Merge**: Conflicting data is preserved rather than collapsed.
+    - **Surface, Don't Resolve**: Conflicts are clearly marked for consumers.
+
+    ## Authentication
+    All endpoints require the `X-Stella-Tenant` header for multi-tenant isolation.
+
+    ## Pagination
+    List endpoints support cursor-based pagination with `page` and `pageSize` parameters.
+    Maximum page size is 200 items.
+
+    ## Documentation
+    See `/docs/modules/concelier/api/` for detailed examples and conflict resolution strategies.

+# Console Search & Downloads · Draft v0.2
+
+Scope: unblock WEB-CONSOLE-23-004/005 by defining deterministic ranking, caching rules, and the download manifest structure (including signed metadata option) for console search and offline bundle downloads. Final guild sign-off still required.
+
+## 1) Deterministic search ranking
+- Primary sort: `severity (desc)` → `exploitScore (desc)` → `reachability (reachable > unknown > unreachable)` → `policyBadge (fail > warn > pass > waived)` → `vexState (under_investigation > fixed > not_affected > unknown)` → `findingId (asc)`.
+- Secondary tie-breakers (when above fields absent): `advisoryId (asc)` then `product (asc)`.
+- All pages are pre-sorted server-side; clients MUST NOT re-order.
+
+## 2) Caching + freshness
+- Response headers: `Cache-Control: public, max-age=300, stale-while-revalidate=60, stale-if-error=300`.
+- `ETag` is a stable SHA-256 over the sorted payload; clients send `If-None-Match` for revalidation.
+- `Last-Modified` reflects the newest `updatedAt` in the result set.
+- Retry/backoff guidance: honor `Retry-After` when present; default client backoff `1s,2s,4s,8s` capped at 30s.
+- Deterministic page cursors: opaque base64url, signed; include `sortKeys` and `tenant` to avoid cross-tenant reuse.
+
+## 3) Download manifest (for `/console/downloads` and export outputs)
+Top-level:
+```jsonc
+{
+  "version": "2025-12-07",
+  "exportId": "console-export::tenant-default::2025-12-07::0009",
+  "tenantId": "tenant-default",
+  "generatedAt": "2025-12-07T10:15:00Z",
+  "items": [

+      "id": "CVE-2024-12345",
+      "format": "json",
+      "url": "https://downloads.local/exports/0009/vuln/CVE-2024-12345.json?sig=...",
+      "sha256": "f1c5…",
+      "size": 18432
+    }
+  ],
+  "checksums": {
+    "manifest": "sha256:8bbf…",
+    "bundle": "sha256:12ae…"          // optional when a tar/zip bundle is produced
+  },
+  "expiresAt": "2025-12-14T10:15:00Z"
+}
+```
+
+### 3.1 Signed metadata
+- Optional DSSE envelope for `checksums.manifest`, using `sha256` digest and `application/json` payload type `stellaops.console.manifest`.
+- Envelope is attached as `manifest.dsse` or provided via `Link: <...>; rel="alternate"; type="application/dsse+json"`.
+- Signers: Authority-issued short-lived key scoped to `console:export`.
+
+### 3.2 Error handling
+- Known error codes: `ERR_CONSOLE_DOWNLOAD_INVALID_CURSOR`, `ERR_CONSOLE_DOWNLOAD_EXPIRED`, `ERR_CONSOLE_DOWNLOAD_RATE_LIMIT`, `ERR_CONSOLE_DOWNLOAD_UNAVAILABLE`.
+- On error, respond with deterministic JSON body including `requestId` and `retryAfterSeconds` when applicable.
+
+## 4) Sample manifest
+- `docs/api/console/samples/console-download-manifest.json` illustrates the exact shape above.
+
+## 5) Open items for guild sign-off
+- Final TTL values for `max-age` and `stale-*`.
+- Whether DSSE envelope is mandatory for sealed tenants.
+- Maximum bundle size / item count caps (proposal: 1000 items, 500 MiB compressed per export).

+# Signals Reachability API Contract (draft placeholder)
+
+**Status:** Draft v0.2 · owner-proposed
+
+## Scope
+- `/signals/callgraphs`, `/signals/facts`, reachability scoring overlays feeding UI/Web.
+- Deterministic fixtures for SIG-26 chain (columns/badges, call paths, timelines, overlays, coverage).
+
+## Endpoints
+- `GET /signals/callgraphs` — returns call paths contributing to reachability.
+- `GET /signals/facts` — returns reachability/coverage facts.
+
+Common headers: `Authorization: DPoP <token>`, `DPoP: <proof>`, `X-StellaOps-Tenant`, optional `If-None-Match`.
+Pagination: cursor via `pageToken`; default 50, max 200.
+ETag: required on responses; clients must send `If-None-Match` for cache validation.
+

+  version: 0.1.0-draft
+  description: |
+    Contract for TaskRunner service covering pack runs, simulations, logs, artifacts, and approvals.
+    Uses the platform error envelope and tenant header `X-StellaOps-Tenant`.
+
+    ## Streaming Endpoints
+    The `/runs/{runId}/logs` endpoint returns logs in NDJSON (Newline Delimited JSON) format
+    for efficient streaming. Each line is a complete JSON object.
+
+    ## Control Flow Steps
+    TaskPacks support the following step kinds:
+    - **run**: Execute an action using a builtin or custom executor
+    - **parallel**: Execute child steps concurrently with optional maxParallel limit
+    - **map**: Iterate over items and execute a template step for each
+    - **loop**: Iterate with items expression, range, or static list
+    - **conditional**: Branch based on condition expressions
+    - **gate.approval**: Require manual approval before proceeding
+    - **gate.policy**: Evaluate policy and optionally require override approval

+# VEX Consensus Stream Contract (draft placeholder)
+
+**Status:** Draft v0.2 · owner-proposed
+
+## Scope
+- `/vex/consensus` streaming APIs via Web gateway with tenant RBAC/ABAC, caching, and telemetry.
+
+## Endpoint
+- `GET /vex/consensus/stream` — SSE stream of consensus VEX statements per tenant.
+
+Headers: `Authorization: DPoP <token>`, `DPoP: <proof>`, `X-StellaOps-Tenant`, optional `If-None-Match`.
+Scopes (proposal): `vex:read` and `vex:consensus`.
+
+Events (draft)
+- `started`: `{ tenantId, streamId, status }`
+- `consensus_update`: `{ statementId, state, justification, validFrom, validUntil, sources[], etag }`
+- `heartbeat`: `{ streamId, ts }`
+- `completed`: `{ streamId, status }`
+- `failed`: `{ streamId, code, message }`
+
+Rate limits: heartbeats every 30s; idle timeout 90s; backoff via `Retry-After` header on reconnect.
+
+Samples: `docs/api/vex-consensus-sample.ndjson`
+
+Outstanding: finalize scopes, error codes, cache/etag semantics, and add pagination/replay guidance.

+```
+
+## 3. JWKS Export Requirements
+
+### 3.1 JWKS Endpoint
+
+The Authority service MUST expose a JWKS endpoint for distributed verification:
+
+```
+GET /.well-known/jwks.json
+```
+
+Response format:
+
+```json
+{
+  "keys": [
+    {
+      "kty": "EC",
+      "crv": "P-256",
+      "x": "base64url-encoded-x",
+      "y": "base64url-encoded-y",
+      "kid": "attestation-key-001",
+      "alg": "ES256",
+      "use": "sig",
+      "key_ops": ["verify"],
+      "x5t#S256": "sha256-fingerprint"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+### 3.2 Key Rotation
+
+When keys are rotated:
+1. New key becomes `Active`, old key becomes `Disabled` (verification-only)
+2. JWKS includes both keys during transition period
+3. Old key removed after `rotation_grace_period` (default: 7 days)
+4. All consuming services refresh JWKS on schedule or via webhook
+
+### 3.3 Key Discovery Flow
+
+```

+## 4. Provider Registration
+
+### 4.1 Service Registration
+
+```csharp
+// Program.cs
+services.AddAuthoritySigningProvider(options =>
+{
+    options.Provider = configuration["Crypto:Provider"];
+    options.Configuration = configuration.GetSection("Crypto");
+});
+
+// Extension method
+public static IServiceCollection AddAuthoritySigningProvider(

+        _ => throw new ArgumentException($"Unknown provider: {options.Provider}")
+    };
+}
+```
+
+### 4.2 Regional Provider Registry
+
+For multi-region deployments with compliance requirements:
+
+```yaml
+# Regional key registry
+key_registry:
+  attestation-sbom:
+    default:
+      key_id: "stellaops/attestation-sbom-001"

+# Authority Routing Decision
+
+**Decision ID:** DECISION-AUTH-001
+**Status:** DEFAULT-APPROVED
+**Effective Date:** 2025-12-06
+**48h Window Started:** 2025-12-06T00:00:00Z
+
+## Decision
+
+Authority claim routing uses **RBAC-standard routing** patterns aligned with existing `docs/security/scopes-and-roles.md`.
+
+## Rationale
+
+1. RBAC patterns are well-established and auditable
+2. Consistent with Authority module implementation
+3. Supports multi-tenancy requirements
+4. Compatible with external IdP integration (OIDC, SAML)
+
+## Routing Matrix
+
+| Claim | Source | Routing | Scope |
+|-------|--------|---------|-------|
+| `tenant_id` | Token/Session | Per-request | All endpoints |
+| `project_id` | Token/Header | Per-request | Project-scoped |
+| `user_id` | Token | Per-request | User-scoped |
+| `role` | Token claims | Authorization | Role-based access |
+| `scope` | Token claims | Authorization | Fine-grained access |
+
+## Claim Priority
+
+When claims conflict:
+1. Explicit header overrides token claim (if authorized)
+2. Token claim is authoritative for identity
+3. Session context provides defaults
+
+## Implementation Pattern
+
+```csharp
+// Authority claim resolution
+public class ClaimResolver : IClaimResolver
+{
+    public AuthorityContext Resolve(HttpContext context)
+    {
+        var tenantId = context.Request.Headers["X-Tenant-Id"]
+            ?? context.User.FindFirst("tenant_id")?.Value;
+
+        var projectId = context.Request.Headers["X-Project-Id"]
+            ?? context.User.FindFirst("project_id")?.Value;
+
+        return new AuthorityContext(tenantId, projectId);
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Impact
+
+- Tasks unblocked: ~5
+- Sprint files affected: SPRINT_0303
+
+## Reversibility
+
+To change routing patterns:
+1. Update `docs/security/scopes-and-roles.md`
+2. Get Authority Guild + Security Guild sign-off
+3. Update `AuthorityClaimsProvider` implementations
+4. Migration path for existing integrations

+# CAS (Content Addressable Storage) Infrastructure Contract
+
+> **Status:** APPROVED
+> **Version:** 1.0.0
+> **Last Updated:** 2025-12-06
+> **Owner:** Platform Storage Guild
+
+## Overview
+
+This contract defines the Content Addressable Storage (CAS) infrastructure for StellaOps, using RustFS as the S3-compatible storage backend. The design provides:
+
+- **Content-addressed storage** — Objects addressed by SHA-256 hash
+- **Immutable evidence storage** — Write-once, never-delete for audit trails
+- **Lifecycle management** — Automated retention policy enforcement
+- **Service account isolation** — Fine-grained access control per service
+

+# Dossier Sequencing Decision
+
+**Decision ID:** DECISION-DOCS-001
+**Status:** DEFAULT-APPROVED
+**Effective Date:** 2025-12-06
+**48h Window Started:** 2025-12-06T00:00:00Z
+
+## Decision
+
+Module dossiers (Md.II through Md.X) are **sequenced after Md.I completion**, following the dependency chain in `docs/implplan/SPRINT_0300_*.md` files.
+
+## Rationale
+
+1. Md.I establishes baseline architecture documentation structure
+2. Subsequent modules depend on patterns defined in Md.I
+3. Sequential ordering prevents documentation conflicts
+4. Allows parallel work within each dossier batch
+
+## Sequencing Order
+
+| Phase | Dossiers | Dependencies | Sprint |
+|-------|----------|--------------|--------|
+| Md.I | Concelier, Scanner, Authority | None | 0300 |
+| Md.II | Attestor, Signer, Evidence | Md.I complete | 0301 |
+| Md.III | VEX Lens, Excititor | Md.II complete | 0302 |
+| Md.IV | Policy, Risk | Md.II complete | 0303 |
+| Md.V | Scheduler, TaskRunner | Md.IV complete | 0304 |
+| Md.VI | Notify, Telemetry | Md.V complete | 0305 |
+| Md.VII | CLI, Web | Md.VI complete | 0306 |
+| Md.VIII | AirGap, Mirror | Md.VII complete | 0307 |
+| Md.IX | Zastava, Signals | Md.VIII complete | 0308 |
+| Md.X | Integration, E2E | All above | 0309 |
+
+## Parallelism Rules
+
+Within each phase, dossiers MAY be worked in parallel if:
+1. No cross-dependencies within the phase
+2. Shared components are stable
+3. Different owners/guilds assigned
+
+## Impact
+
+- Tasks unblocked: ~10
+- Sprint files affected: SPRINT_0300, SPRINT_0301, SPRINT_0302
+
+## Reversibility
+
+To change sequencing:
+1. Propose new order in `docs/process/dossier-sequencing.md`
+2. Get Docs Guild sign-off
+3. Update all affected SPRINT_03xx files

+# Rate Limit Design Contract
+
+**Contract ID:** CONTRACT-RATE-LIMIT-001
+**Status:** APPROVED
+**Effective Date:** 2025-12-07
+**Owners:** Platform Reliability Guild, Gateway Guild
+
+## Overview
+
+This contract defines the rate limiting design for StellaOps API endpoints, ensuring fair resource allocation, protection against abuse, and consistent client experience across all services.
+
+## Rate Limiting Strategy
+
+### Tiered Rate Limits
+
+| Tier | Requests/Minute | Requests/Hour | Burst Limit | Typical Use Case |
+|------|-----------------|---------------|-------------|------------------|
+| **Free** | 60 | 1,000 | 10 | Evaluation, small projects |
+| **Standard** | 300 | 10,000 | 50 | Production workloads |
+| **Enterprise** | 1,000 | 50,000 | 200 | Large-scale deployments |
+| **Unlimited** | No limit | No limit | No limit | Internal services, VIP |
+
+### Per-Endpoint Rate Limits
+
+Some endpoints have additional rate limits based on resource intensity:
+
+| Endpoint Category | Rate Limit | Rationale |
+|-------------------|------------|-----------|
+| `/api/risk/simulation/*` | 30/min | CPU-intensive simulation |
+| `/api/risk/simulation/studio/*` | 10/min | Full breakdown analysis |
+| `/system/airgap/seal` | 5/hour | Critical state change |
+| `/policy/decisions` | 100/min | Lightweight evaluation |
+| `/api/policy/packs/*/bundle` | 10/min | Bundle compilation |
+| Export endpoints | 20/min | I/O-intensive operations |
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Algorithm
+
+Use **Token Bucket** algorithm with the following configuration:
+
+```yaml
+rate_limit:
+  algorithm: token_bucket
+  bucket_size: ${BURST_LIMIT}
+  refill_rate: ${REQUESTS_PER_MINUTE} / 60
+  refill_interval: 1s
+```
+
+### Rate Limit Headers
+
+All responses include standard rate limit headers:
+
+```http
+X-RateLimit-Limit: 300
+X-RateLimit-Remaining: 295
+X-RateLimit-Reset: 1701936000
+X-RateLimit-Policy: standard
+Retry-After: 30
+```
+
+### Rate Limit Response
+
+When rate limit is exceeded, return:
+
+```http
+HTTP/1.1 429 Too Many Requests
+Content-Type: application/problem+json
+Retry-After: 30
+
+```
+
+## Rate Limit Keys
+
+### Primary Key: Tenant ID + Client ID
+
+```
+rate_limit_key = "${tenant_id}:${client_id}"
+```
+
+### Fallback Keys
+
+1. Authenticated: `tenant:${tenant_id}:user:${user_id}`
+2. API Key: `apikey:${api_key_hash}`
+3. Anonymous: `ip:${client_ip}`
+
+## Exemptions
+
+### Exempt Endpoints
+
+The following endpoints are exempt from rate limiting:
+
+- `GET /health`
+- `GET /ready`
+- `GET /metrics`
+- `GET /.well-known/*`
+
+### Exempt Clients
+
+- Internal service mesh traffic (mTLS authenticated)
+- Localhost connections in development mode
+- Clients with `unlimited` tier
+
+## Quota Management
+
+### Tenant Quota Tracking
+
+```yaml
+quota:
+  tracking:
+    storage: redis
+    key_prefix: "stellaops:quota:"
+    ttl: 3600  # 1 hour rolling window
+
+  dimensions:
+    - tenant_id
+    - endpoint_category
+    - time_bucket
+```
+
+### Quota Alerts
+
+| Threshold | Action |
+|-----------|--------|
+| 80% consumed | Emit `quota.warning` event |
+| 95% consumed | Emit `quota.critical` event |
+| 100% consumed | Block requests, emit `quota.exceeded` event |
+

+# Redaction Defaults Decision
+
+**Decision ID:** DECISION-SECURITY-001
+**Status:** DEFAULT-APPROVED
+**Effective Date:** 2025-12-06
+**48h Window Started:** 2025-12-06T00:00:00Z
+
+## Decision
+
+Notification and export pipelines use **restrictive redaction defaults** that redact PII, secrets, and cryptographic keys.
+
+## Rationale
+
+1. Security-first approach minimizes data exposure risk
+2. Users can opt-in to less restrictive settings via configuration
+3. Aligns with GDPR and data minimization principles
+4. Consistent with existing Evidence Locker redaction patterns
+
+## Default Redaction Rules
+
+### Always Redacted (HIGH)
+- Private keys (RSA, ECDSA, Ed25519)
+- API keys and tokens
+- Passwords and secrets
+- Database connection strings
+- JWT tokens
+
+### Redacted by Default (MEDIUM) - Opt-out available
+- Email addresses
+- IP addresses (external)
+- File paths containing usernames
+- Environment variable values (not names)
+
+### Not Redacted (LOW)
+- Package names and versions
+- CVE identifiers
+- Severity scores
+- Public key fingerprints
+
+## Configuration
+
+```yaml
+# etc/notify.yaml
+redaction:
+  level: restrictive  # Options: permissive, standard, restrictive
+  custom_patterns:
+    - pattern: "INTERNAL_.*"
+      action: redact
+```
+
+## Impact
+
+- Tasks unblocked: ~5
+- Sprint files affected: SPRINT_0170, SPRINT_0171
+
+## Reversibility
+
+To change redaction defaults:
+1. Update `docs/security/redaction-and-privacy.md`
+2. Get Security Guild sign-off
+3. Update configuration schemas
+4. Ensure backward compatibility

+
+## 1. Pack Declaration
+
+### 1.1 Sealed Install Flag
+
+Packs declare their sealed requirement in the pack manifest:
+
+```json
+{
+  "pack_id": "compliance-scan-airgap",
+  "version": "1.0.0",
+  "name": "Air-Gap Compliance Scanner",
+  "sealed_install": true,
+  "sealed_requirements": {
+    "min_bundle_version": "2025.10.0",
+    "max_advisory_staleness_hours": 168,
+    "require_time_anchor": true,
+    "allowed_offline_duration_hours": 720
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 1.2 Sealed Requirements Schema
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "object",
+  "properties": {
+    "sealed_install": {
+      "type": "boolean",
+      "default": false,
+      "description": "If true, pack MUST run in sealed environment"
+    },
+    "sealed_requirements": {
+      "type": "object",
+      "properties": {
+        "min_bundle_version": {
+          "type": "string",
+          "description": "Minimum air-gap bundle version"
+        },
+        "max_advisory_staleness_hours": {
+          "type": "integer",
+          "minimum": 1,
+          "default": 168,
+          "description": "Maximum age of advisory data in hours"
+        },
+        "require_time_anchor": {
+          "type": "boolean",
+          "default": true,
+          "description": "Require valid time anchor"
+        },
+        "allowed_offline_duration_hours": {
+          "type": "integer",
+          "minimum": 1,
+          "default": 720,
+          "description": "Maximum allowed offline duration"
+        },
+        "require_signature_verification": {
+          "type": "boolean",
+          "default": true,
+          "description": "Require bundle signature verification"
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## 2. Environment Detection
+
+### 2.1 Sealed Mode Status API
+
+The Task Runner queries the AirGap Controller to determine sealed status:
+
+```
+GET /api/v1/airgap/status
+```
+
+Response:
+
+```json
+{
+  "sealed": true,
+  "mode": "sealed",
+  "sealed_at": "2025-12-01T00:00:00Z",
+  "sealed_by": "ops-admin@company.com",
+  "bundle_version": "2025.10.0",
+  "bundle_digest": "sha256:abc123...",
+  "last_advisory_update": "2025-12-01T00:00:00Z",
+  "advisory_staleness_hours": 120,
+  "time_anchor": {
+    "timestamp": "2025-12-01T00:00:00Z",
+    "signature": "base64...",
+    "valid": true,
+    "expires_at": "2025-12-31T00:00:00Z"
+  },
+  "egress_blocked": true,
+  "network_policy": "deny-all"
+}
+```
+
+### 2.2 Detection Heuristics
+
+If the AirGap Controller is unavailable, the Task Runner uses fallback heuristics:
+
+| Heuristic | Weight | Indicates |
+|-----------|--------|-----------|
+| No external DNS resolution | High | Sealed |
+| Blocked ports 80, 443 | High | Sealed |
+| AIRGAP_MODE=sealed env var | High | Sealed |
+| /etc/stellaops/sealed file exists | Medium | Sealed |
+| No internet connectivity | Medium | Sealed |
+| Local-only registry configured | Low | Sealed |
+
+Combined heuristic score threshold: **0.7** to consider environment sealed.
+
+## 3. Enforcement Logic
+
+### 3.1 Pre-Execution Check
+
+```csharp
+public sealed class SealedInstallEnforcer

+```
+
+### 3.2 Decision Matrix
+
+| Pack `sealed_install` | Environment Sealed | Bundle Valid | Advisories Fresh | Result |
+|-----------------------|-------------------|--------------|------------------|--------|
+| `true` | `true` | `true` | `true` | ✅ RUN |
+| `true` | `true` | `true` | `false` | ⚠️ WARN + RUN (if within grace) |
+| `true` | `true` | `false` | * | ❌ DENY |
+| `true` | `false` | * | * | ❌ DENY |
+| `false` | `true` | * | * | ✅ RUN |
+| `false` | `false` | * | * | ✅ RUN |
+
+### 3.3 Grace Period Handling
+
+For advisory staleness, a grace period can be configured:
+
+```yaml
+# etc/taskrunner.yaml
+enforcement:
+  sealed_install:
+    staleness_grace_period_hours: 24
+    staleness_warning_threshold_hours: 120
+    deny_on_staleness: true  # or false for warn-only
+```
+
+## 4. Refusal Semantics
+
+### 4.1 Error Response
+
+When enforcement denies execution:
+
+```json
+{
+  "error": {
+    "code": "SEALED_INSTALL_VIOLATION",
+    "message": "Pack requires sealed environment but environment is not sealed",
+    "details": {

+| 40 | `SEALED_INSTALL_VIOLATION` | Pack requires sealed but environment is not |
+| 41 | `BUNDLE_VERSION_VIOLATION` | Bundle version below minimum |
+| 42 | `ADVISORY_STALENESS_VIOLATION` | Advisory data too stale |
+| 43 | `TIME_ANCHOR_VIOLATION` | Time anchor missing or invalid |
+| 44 | `SIGNATURE_VERIFICATION_VIOLATION` | Bundle signature verification failed |
+
+### 4.3 Audit Logging
+
+All enforcement decisions are logged:
+
+```json
+{
+  "event_type": "sealed_install_enforcement",
+  "timestamp": "2025-12-06T10:00:00Z",
+  "pack_id": "compliance-scan-airgap",
+  "pack_version": "1.0.0",
+  "decision": "denied",
+  "reason": "SEALED_INSTALL_VIOLATION",
+  "environment": {
+    "sealed": false,
+    "bundle_version": null,
+    "advisory_staleness_hours": null
+  },
+  "user": "task-runner-service",
+  "tenant_id": "550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000"
+}
+```
+
+## 5. Integration Points
+
+### 5.1 Task Runner Integration
+
+```csharp
+// In TaskRunner execution pipeline
+public async Task<TaskResult> ExecuteAsync(TaskPack pack, TaskContext context)
+{
+    // Pre-execution enforcement
+    var enforcement = await _sealedInstallEnforcer.EnforceAsync(pack);
+    if (!enforcement.Allowed)
+    {
+        await _auditLogger.LogEnforcementDenialAsync(pack, enforcement);
+        return TaskResult.Rejected(enforcement);
+    }
+
+    // Continue with execution
+    return await _executor.ExecuteAsync(pack, context);
+}
+```
+
+### 5.2 CLI Integration
+
+```bash
+# Check sealed status before running pack
+$ stella pack run compliance-scan-airgap
+
+Error: Sealed install violation
+  Pack 'compliance-scan-airgap' requires a sealed environment.
+
+  Current environment:
+    Sealed: false
+
+  To resolve:
+    1. Import an air-gap bundle: stella airgap import <bundle.tar.gz>
+    2. Activate sealed mode: stella airgap seal
+    3. Verify status: stella airgap status
+
+  Exit code: 40
+```
+
+## 6. Configuration
+
+### 6.1 Task Runner Configuration
+
+```yaml
+# etc/taskrunner.yaml
+enforcement:
+  sealed_install:
+    enabled: true
+
+    # Staleness handling
+    staleness_grace_period_hours: 24
+    staleness_warning_threshold_hours: 120
+    deny_on_staleness: true
+
+    # Fallback detection
+    use_heuristic_detection: true
+    heuristic_threshold: 0.7
+
+    # Logging
+    log_all_decisions: true
+    audit_retention_days: 365
+```
+
+### 6.2 Environment Variables

+# Web Gateway Tenant RBAC Contract
+
+**Contract ID:** CONTRACT-GATEWAY-RBAC-001
+**Status:** APPROVED
+**Effective Date:** 2025-12-07
+**Owners:** Gateway Guild, Authority Guild, Web UI Guild
+
+## Overview
+
+This contract defines the tenant isolation and role-based access control (RBAC) model for the StellaOps Web Gateway, ensuring consistent authorization across all API endpoints and UI components.
+
+## Tenant Model
+
+### Tenant Hierarchy
+
+```
+Organization (Org)
+├── Tenant A
+│   ├── Project 1
+│   │   └── Resources...
+│   └── Project 2
+│       └── Resources...
+└── Tenant B
+    └── Project 3
+        └── Resources...
+```
+
+### Tenant Identification
+
+Tenants are identified through:
+
+1. **JWT Claims:** `tenant_id` or `stellaops:tenant` claim
+2. **Header:** `X-Tenant-Id` header (for service-to-service)
+3. **Path Parameter:** `/tenants/{tenantId}/...` routes
+
+### Tenant Resolution Priority
+
+```
+1. Path parameter (explicit)
+2. JWT claim (authenticated user context)
+3. X-Tenant-Id header (service-to-service)
+4. Default tenant (configuration fallback)
+```

+
+```yaml
+# authorization-rules.yaml
+rules:
+  - resource: risk_profile
+    actions:
+      read:
+        required_scopes: [policy:read]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+      create:
+        required_scopes: [policy:edit]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+      update:
+        required_scopes: [policy:edit]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+      activate:
+        required_scopes: [policy:activate]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+      delete:
+        required_scopes: [policy:edit]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+        require_role: policy:admin
+
+  - resource: scan_result
+    actions:
+      read:
+        required_scopes: [scanner:read]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+        project_isolation: optional
+      create:
+        required_scopes: [scanner:execute]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+      delete:
+        required_scopes: [scanner:execute]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+        require_role: scanner:operator
+
+  - resource: sealed_mode
+    actions:
+      read:
+        required_scopes: [airgap:status:read]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+      seal:
+        required_scopes: [airgap:seal]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+        require_role: airgap:admin
+        audit: required
+      unseal:
+        required_scopes: [airgap:seal]
+        tenant_isolation: strict
+        require_role: airgap:admin
+        audit: required
+```
+
+## Tenant Isolation
+
+### Strict Isolation
+
+All data access is tenant-scoped by default:
+
+```sql
+-- Example: All queries include tenant filter
+SELECT * FROM findings
+WHERE tenant_id = @current_tenant_id
+  AND deleted_at IS NULL;
+```
+
+### Cross-Tenant Access
+
+Cross-tenant access is prohibited except:
+
+1. **Organization admins** can access all tenants in their org
+2. **Internal services** with explicit `cross_tenant` scope
+3. **Aggregation endpoints** with `org:reader` role
+
+### Isolation Enforcement Points
+
+| Layer | Enforcement |
+|-------|-------------|
+| Gateway | Validates tenant claim, injects X-Tenant-Id |
+| Service | Applies tenant filter to all queries |
+| Database | Row-level security (RLS) policies |
+| Cache | Tenant-prefixed cache keys |
+
+## JWT Claims
+
+### Required Claims
+
+```json
+{
+  "sub": "user-uuid",
+  "aud": ["stellaops-api"],
+  "iss": "https://auth.stellaops.io",
+  "exp": 1701936000,
+  "iat": 1701932400,
+  "stellaops:tenant": "tenant-uuid",
+  "stellaops:org": "org-uuid",
+  "stellaops:roles": ["tenant:operator", "policy:admin"],
+  "scope": "policy:read policy:edit scanner:read"
+}
+```
+
+### Custom Claims
+
+| Claim | Type | Description |
+|-------|------|-------------|
+| `stellaops:tenant` | string | Current tenant UUID |
+| `stellaops:org` | string | Organization UUID |
+| `stellaops:roles` | string[] | Assigned roles |
+| `stellaops:projects` | string[] | Accessible projects |
+| `stellaops:tier` | string | Rate limit tier |
+
+## Gateway Implementation
+
+### Authorization Middleware
+
+```csharp
+// AuthorizationMiddleware.cs
+public class TenantAuthorizationMiddleware
+{
+    public async Task InvokeAsync(HttpContext context, RequestDelegate next)
+    {
+        // 1. Extract tenant from JWT/header/path
+        var tenantId = ResolveTenantId(context);
+
+        // 2. Validate tenant access
+        if (!await ValidateTenantAccess(context.User, tenantId))
+        {
+            context.Response.StatusCode = 403;
+            return;
+        }
+
+        // 3. Set tenant context for downstream
+        context.Items["TenantId"] = tenantId;
+        context.Request.Headers["X-Tenant-Id"] = tenantId;
+
+        await next(context);
+    }
+}
+```
+
+### Scope Authorization
+
+```csharp
+// ScopeAuthorization.cs
+public static class ScopeAuthorization
+{
+    public static IResult? RequireScope(HttpContext context, string requiredScope)
+    {
+        var scopes = context.User.FindFirst("scope")?.Value?.Split(' ') ?? [];
+
+        if (!scopes.Contains(requiredScope) && !HasInheritedScope(scopes, requiredScope))
+        {
+            return Results.Problem(
+                title: "Forbidden",
+                detail: $"Missing required scope: {requiredScope}",
+                statusCode: 403);
+        }
+
+        return null; // Access granted
+    }
+}
+```
+
+## Web UI Integration
+
+### Route Guards
+
+```typescript
+// route-guards.ts
+export const TenantGuard: CanActivateFn = (route, state) => {
+  const auth = inject(AuthService);
+  const requiredRoles = route.data['roles'] as string[];
+
+  if (!auth.hasAnyRole(requiredRoles)) {
+    return inject(Router).createUrlTree(['/unauthorized']);
+  }
+
+  return true;
+};
+
+// Usage in routes
+{
+  path: 'policy/studio',
+  component: PolicyStudioComponent,
+  canActivate: [TenantGuard],
+  data: { roles: ['policy:admin', 'tenant:admin'] }
+}
+```
+
+### Scope-Based UI Elements
+
+```typescript
+// rbac.directive.ts
+@Directive({ selector: '[requireScope]' })
+export class RequireScopeDirective {
+  @Input() set requireScope(scope: string) {
+    this.updateVisibility(scope);
+  }
+
+  private updateVisibility(scope: string): void {
+    const hasScope = this.auth.hasScope(scope);
+    this.viewContainer.clear();
+    if (hasScope) {
+      this.viewContainer.createEmbeddedView(this.templateRef);
+    }
+  }
+}
+
+// Usage in templates
+<button *requireScope="'policy:activate'">Activate Policy</button>
+```
+
+## Audit Trail
+
+### Audited Operations
+
+All write operations are logged with:
+
+```json
+{
+  "timestamp": "2025-12-07T10:30:00Z",
+  "actor": {
+    "userId": "user-uuid",
+    "tenantId": "tenant-uuid",
+    "roles": ["policy:admin"],
+    "ipAddress": "192.168.1.100"
+  },
+  "action": "policy.activate",
+  "resource": {
+    "type": "policy_pack",
+    "id": "pack-123",
+    "version": 5
+  },
+  "outcome": "success",
+  "details": {
+    "previousStatus": "approved",
+    "newStatus": "active"
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Sensitive Operations
+
+These operations require enhanced audit logging:
+
+- `sealed_mode.seal` / `sealed_mode.unseal`
+- `policy.activate`
+- `export.create` (with PII)
+- `user.role.assign`
+- `tenant.settings.modify`
+
+## Configuration
+
+### Gateway RBAC Configuration
+
+```yaml
+# gateway/rbac.yaml
+rbac:
+  enabled: true
+  strictTenantIsolation: true
+  allowCrossTenantForOrgAdmin: true
+
+  defaultRole: tenant:viewer
+  defaultScopes:
+    - policy:read
+    - scanner:read
+
+  roleBindings:
+    tenant:admin:
+      scopes:
+        - policy:read
+        - policy:edit
+        - policy:activate
+        - scanner:read
+        - scanner:execute
+        - airgap:status:read
+        - export:read
+        - export:create
+        - admin:users
+        - admin:settings
+
+    policy:admin:
+      scopes:
+        - policy:read
+        - policy:edit
+        - policy:activate
+```
+
+## Error Responses
+
+### 401 Unauthorized
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "https://stellaops.org/problems/unauthorized",
+  "title": "Unauthorized",
+  "status": 401,
+  "detail": "Authentication required."
+}
+```
+
+### 403 Forbidden
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "https://stellaops.org/problems/forbidden",
+  "title": "Forbidden",
+  "status": 403,
+  "detail": "You do not have permission to access this resource.",
+  "requiredScope": "policy:activate",
+  "currentScopes": ["policy:read"]
+}
+```
+
+### 404 Not Found (Tenant Isolation)
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "https://stellaops.org/problems/not-found",
+  "title": "Not Found",
+  "status": 404,
+  "detail": "Resource not found."
+}
+```
+
+Note: 404 is returned instead of 403 for resources in other tenants to prevent enumeration attacks.
