   Claim: epic seat round · 2026-10-22T20:10Z · a finding of the contract review of PR #25226 (6343868210, ③ 3a), owed under ADR-0131 D8; security, dispatched directly
   Session: session_01Y5583bs2RDd53MH6kM1ca3

   File surface:

   • Measure first.
   • packages/core/src/security/resolve-authz-context.ts: resolveLocalizationContextUncached's direct sys_setting fallback, and only that region.
   • Its tests, and one .changeset/*.md.
   • ⛔ Not docs/adr/**.
   • ⛔ No ORGANIZATION_OWNERSHIP_SHAPE_GENERATION change.
   • ⛔ Not the Default Organization rule or the anchor predicate in the same file; fix(core,plugin-security): ADR-0131 8c-2 review carriers — guard a sys_organization insert that moves the platform-admin anchor, pin the ceremony's NULL admin_full_access attribution, one Default Organization definition #25208 landed those, and the predicate fold is a separate card.
     Container & model: S, mode:cloud, model: TIER_DEFAULT. The review is at the tier the diff's declared face picks.
     Clause-②: no (narrowing) — expected: a localization read stops admitting another organization's row or a NULL row outside lean embedding; the dev measures first and re-declares from the diff
     Responsibility: when the settings service is absent or throws, resolveLocalizationContext reads sys_setting tenant rows with no organization filter and takes the first row per key, from any organization | none | reached by a localization read for a signed-in user while the settings service is absent or failing
     Thread-read: none
     Serial constraints cleared: fix(core,plugin-security): ADR-0131 8c-2 review carriers — guard a sys_organization insert that moves the platform-admin anchor, pin the ceremony's NULL admin_full_access attribution, one Default Organization definition #25208 landed as 8dfd1265f0 (it edited resolve-authz-context.ts for the Default Organization rule); feat(cli): the ownership ceremony's fate for walled organization-less self-registration grants (sys_user_permission_set) — attribute through the user's first membership, or record that ruling C's manual fix governs #25206 landed as 1eb1afae07. fix(plugin-auth): under single, an organization re-slugged to default through better-auth organization/update captures the platform-admin anchor — the single gate covers create only #25271 (plugin-auth) is the one other session in flight and shares no file.

That covers the localization namespace not yet bound (bind window) or a partial manifest, the organization source's AuthzStoreUnavailableError and a throwing posture source. It is reached under every posture, and on main it answers with another organization's row: a real-engine probe on main has an isolated org_a caller read org_b's Asia/Tokyo. With the settings service absent there is no leak, because only service-settings registers sys_setting. A healthy service never reaches the fallback. Step 2: the fallback is scoped, not retired (localizationFallbackReach). It reads the caller's organization; under single, the D9-derived organization (resolveGuestOrganization); nothing behind the requested wall, at zero or several organizations, or when the organization read fails; and NULL rows only when no sys_organization is registered. Retiring it was rejected because the #10221 failure memo is keyed on this read.",

   Landed · epic PM session_01Y5583bs2RDd53MH6kM1ca3 (os-steve) · 2026-10-23T00:23Z. PR #25301 merged into main as d196748b86, and it closes this card.

   • What changed (ADR-0131 D8): when the settings service cannot answer, core's direct sys_setting localization fallback now reads only:
     • the caller's organization;
     • under single, for a caller naming none, the D9-derived organization;
     • nothing behind a requested wall, at zero or several organizations, or when the organization read fails;
     • NULL rows only where no sys_organization is registered.
       On main before this, an isolated caller could read another organization's timezone through it.
   • Acceptance: contract review at CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER on the narrowing face.
     • Round 1 failed on the Clause-② value (6353329341). It was corrected to no (narrowing), then round 2 passed (6353849043).
     • Then ACCEPT 6353854263. The labelled upgrade-harness lane passed. R1 and R4 (isolated, group) were measured by the dev after the main merge.
   • Carried: two single-definition follow-ups (6353870843) are folded with the anchor predicate into refactor(core, plugin-auth, service-settings): one definition each for the admin_full_access anchor predicate and the organization-reach rule, exported from core security and called by every reader that spells them today #25315.
   • Next: the dev session is archived. feat(spec,drivers,objectql,plugin-security): organization_id NOT NULL per cleared table; one predicate for Layer 0 and every driver; both orWhereNull arms, the __global__ sentinel and the #13491 ledger retire (ADR-0131 D1/D8/D9) — protocol 18 #15212's open children are now chore: ADR-0131 small carriers — resolveDeclaredRuleScopes checks the raw page length, the semantic-entry and ceremony wording, and the help texts and docblocks that still say NULL organization means global #25203, fix(service-settings): a host that binds SettingsService without an organization source reads as the lean composition (NULL rows) on a store that registers sys_organization — derive from the bound engine, or refuse #25249 and refactor(core, plugin-auth, service-settings): one definition each for the admin_full_access anchor predicate and the organization-reach rule, exported from core security and called by every reader that spells them today #25315.
