Outcome

Policy resolves which Views and interface surfaces may be selected or imposed at system, tenant, group, and user scope, and explains every effective limitation.

Acceptance criteria

  • Define module-neutral decisions for view, select, assign, edit, derive, and workflow_activate actions.
  • Resolve system/tenant/group/user ceilings so lower scopes and workflows may narrow inherited visibility but never broaden it.
  • Support administrator defaults, mandatory/locked View assignments, allowed View sets, and user selection within the effective ceiling.
  • A workflow step may request a View or narrower overlay, but cannot bypass the administrative ceiling or ordinary authorization.
  • Return ordered provenance for each hidden, forced, inherited, or unavailable surface and make it consumable by the Views editor/UI.
  • Keep presentation policy distinct from RBAC: a Policy decision about a View never grants a backend permission.
  • Preserve the last valid effective definition when a referenced View becomes invalid; otherwise fall back to the normal authorized interface with an administrator-visible diagnostic rather than trapping the user in an empty shell.
  • Cover inheritance, mandatory assignments, workflow narrowing, stale revisions, and attempted broadening in focused tests.

Dependencies

Depends on the Core surface/runtime contract. govoplan-policy must not import Views or Workflow implementations.

Codex State: note

Summary

  • The Views module now resolves assignment precedence, required/default/available modes, user selection, basic provenance, and stale projection recovery.
  • Policy-owned ceilings, narrowing-only decisions, and per-surface policy provenance are not implemented and this issue remains open.

Changed Files

  • govoplan-policy@242d023

Next / Blocked

  • Build the module-neutral Policy decisions over the published views.resolver and views.surface_contract interfaces.
