+## Codex explicit authorization (scoped consent)
+
+In addition to the hard block above, a blocked Codex structured mutation exposes a
+pending challenge scoped to the host session, tool name, and canonical full
+tool-input digest. The pending challenge has no wall-clock TTL. The challenge id
+appears in the block output as `challenge id: <id>`. Only scoped structured mutations (`rule.id` `structured-mutate`)
+issue or consume grants; other actions keep ordinary blocking.
+
+The only approval source is a real `UserPromptSubmit` hook receiving the exact
+entire prompt `HARNESS APPROVE <challengeId>` with no additional text. That
+event binds the host session and its consent turn to a one-use grant for the
+same session, consent turn, tool, and full-input digest.
+
+A matching retry passes once and atomically consumes the grant. Missing,
+mismatched, cross-session, cross-turn, and replayed grants remain blocked. The
+one-use grant is bound to the consent turn and fails after a turn change. Tool
+input containing an `authorization` JSON claim never grants.
+
+On a matching retry the guard does not block and emits no `permissionDecision=allow`;
+Codex native permission controls remain authoritative. This is cooperative local
+hook state, not tamperproof, and carries no live-host proof.

 **Executor rationale.** The owner's text (#325, 2026-10-21) says the reviewer "must differ from the author's `session_id` and from every executor principal". An executor principal is the principal of execution evidence used in this assessment. A reviewer that read or computed digests with plain tool calls is not an executor. A reviewer whose registered doc-check run is refused still counts, which keeps the rule fail-closed.

 The preparation design, test-only provider/trust contracts, and qualified RED replay are complete:
 [Document workflow reconciliation](doc-workflow-reconciliation.md),
 [case corpus](../ci/fixtures/doc-obligations/reconciliation-prep/cases.json),
 [pending-RED registry](../ci/fixtures/doc-obligations/reconciliation-prep/pending-red.json), and
 [preparation suite](../ci/mechanism-325-3b-preparation.test.js). #341 E0 is accepted; S1 ships the
-default-OFF no-credit gate only. Positive reconciliation (S2) remains unshipped.
+default-OFF gate, and F4 (#358) adds limited positive credit for `doc-lint` and `link-check` behind the same switch. S3 provider integration remains pending.
 
 - **Inputs:** explicit active `doc-change` step, D6.5 diff facts, Phase 3a obligations/evidence, available provider *metadata*, and host capabilities.
 - **Entry and activation gates (#341):** parallel preparatory work — provider metadata, adapter/interface design and RED fixtures — may proceed while #341 Phase 0A–0C runs, but the **runtime** Evidence Reconciliation must not merge or activate until **#341 E0** is reviewed and accepted (initial evidence read/binding/outcome conformance, mutation and read-order compatibility, source/package parity, zero false MUST PASS on applicable adversarial cases, and applicable green CI including Windows). After E0, only the **bounded, opt-in, reversible** documentation consumer is eligible for runtime integration at the existing verification/disposition path (no second router, forced provider, new lock, or weakened authorization, with a documented rollback), and it supplies the observed exposure for **#341 E1** (initial target 2–3 genuine development/review cycles with sufficient case mix, not elapsed time). **#341 E1 GO / REVISE / NO-GO gates expansion beyond the limited pilot, not the pilot's own observation** (missing or unrepresentative exposure is `UNCHECKED`, never an automatic GO). The H1–H4 paired-task architectural gate below stays required for any #320 promotion in addition to E1. Shared evidence-read/binding/decision defects route to #341 (fixture-first correction, regression replay, re-observation); documentation policy and the trusted host/VCS producer remain #325 deliverables here.

 The public OpenAI Skills-only plugin is narrower again. Its ZIP contains the packaged `skills/` tree and referenced files, but not the local `.codex-plugin` lifecycle hooks. Public submission readiness is therefore a package/form contract, not evidence of public-directory approval or live hook execution.
 
+### Codex explicit UserPromptSubmit consent (mechanism only)
+
+Codex has a local `UserPromptSubmit` exact-challenge consent path for a blocked
+structured mutation. The blocked call exposes a pending challenge scoped to host
+session, tool name, and canonical full tool-input digest. The pending challenge has
+no wall-clock TTL. Only a real
+`UserPromptSubmit` hook receiving the exact entire prompt
+`HARNESS APPROVE <challengeId>` with no additional text can bind that challenge to
+a host session and consent turn. The resulting one-use grant only lets the
+matching retry pass Harness's guard; it does not emit `permissionDecision=allow`
+and does not supersede native Codex permissions. Missing, mismatched, cross-session, cross-turn, and replayed grants remain
+blocked. The one-use grant is bound to the consent turn and fails after a turn
+change. Tool-input
+authorization JSON never grants. This is cooperative local hook state: it is not
+tamperproof and carries no live-host verification. Codex ask-style decisions are
+not supported.
+
 ## Install/uninstall ownership boundary
 
 The general installer merges shared files only through Harness-owned markers and removes only manifest-tracked artifacts. Malformed configuration and pre-existing user-owned files fail closed. Install/uninstall round-trip coverage protects user skills and runs on Linux, Windows, and macOS fixtures.
