Temporary Authority Bridge Lifecycle

Use existing credential custody or delegated authority for one bounded cross-repository operation without copying secrets, then prove the consequence and remove the bridge so temporary access cannot become permanent architecture.

Problem
A blocked deployment or migration can tempt teams to copy credentials between repositories or leave a temporary privileged bridge behind after the emergency is over.

Core outcomes

  • Credential material remains in its existing custody
  • Bridge scope and exact target are bounded
  • Authority use is auditable
  • Consequence is independently read back
  • Bridge is removed immediately after use
  • Removal proof is separate from success proof

Requirements

Preconditions an agent should verify before selecting this capability.

  • An existing authorised credential/authority holder
  • A bounded target operation
  • Repository or workflow isolation
  • Explicit scope and expiry condition
  • Independent readback of the resulting consequence
  • Ability to remove the bridge after use

Boundaries

Published limitations that constrain safe use.

  • Do not copy secret material into source or logs
  • Do not widen provider scope merely to create the bridge
  • A bridge cannot silently become the canonical deployment path
  • An expired/invalid credential remains a credential-custody finding, not authority to mint a replacement
  • Removal is required even when the bounded operation fails
