# OSOH Push Implementation Descent Authority

## Purpose
Authorize the controlled descent from Level 5 governance into the minimum lower-level MVP work required to realize Sentinel push telemetry without violating constitutional invariants.

## Authorized Descent Target
The next descent is authorized only for bounded MVP realization of Sentinel push telemetry into OSOH.

## Authorized Implementation Objects
1. Sentinel deployment event sender
2. Sentinel heartbeat event sender
3. OSOH ingest URL wiring
4. OSOH ingest token wiring
5. OSOH site identity wiring
6. bounded server-side secret handling
7. proof that push events enter OSOH as telemetry-only evidence

## Constitutional Constraints During Descent
- Sentinel remains external monitored surface
- push remains telemetry only
- credential remains ingest-only
- activation remains blocked
- hybrid verification remains required
- OSOH remains final authority

## Forbidden Outcomes During Descent
- no trust transfer
- no activation by configuration alone
- no activation by push alone
- no broader credential scope
- no operator or control-plane privilege grant
- no constitutional reclassification of Sentinel

## Return Requirement
After implementation, the resulting slice must be reviewable against Level 5 invariants before any further descent.

## Phase Completion Marker
This phase is complete when the implementation descent authority is explicitly bounded, scoped, constrained, and return-reviewable.

# OSOH Push Implementation Descent Authority — Done Definition

## Done Definition

### Condition 1 — Descent Target Is Explicit
Only bounded Sentinel push telemetry realization is authorized for the next lower-level MVP work.

### Condition 2 — Authorized Objects Are Fixed
The permitted objects remain limited to deployment sender, heartbeat sender, ingest URL wiring, ingest token wiring, site identity wiring, bounded secret handling, and telemetry-entry proof.

### Condition 3 — Constitutional Constraints Remain Active
Externality, telemetry-only interpretation, ingest-only credential scope, fail-closed handling, hybrid dependency, and OSOH final authority remain binding during descent.

### Condition 4 — Forbidden Outcomes Remain Blocked
No trust transfer, no activation by configuration, no activation by push alone, no broader credential scope, and no control-plane privilege expansion are allowed.

### Condition 5 — Return Review Remains Mandatory
The completed push slice must be reviewed back against Level 5 constitutional invariants before further descent or expansion.

## Phase Completion Marker
This phase is complete when the lower-level implementation authority is fully bounded, fixed in scope, constitutionally constrained, outcome-limited, and review-returnable.
