Secrets were per-node SQLite, so a secret written on one node was invisible to
the rest of a cluster. G-7's design resolved the "shared SQL store vs Akka
replicator" fork to build only the former; both are built here so the choice is
a deployment decision (availability vs partition tolerance) rather than a
library limitation.
Two new packages — ZB.MOM.WW.Secrets.Replicator.SqlServer (shared store, plus a
local-store-with-hub mode) and .Replicator.AkkaDotNet (peer-to-peer over
distributed pub/sub). Core gains ISecretsStoreMigrator, one shared
SecretLastWriterWins predicate so no two stores can disagree on a tie, the
transport-agnostic reconciler, and ReplicatingSecretStore — which closes a real
gap: nothing had ever called ISecretReplicator.PublishAsync, so the seam was
inert and local writes would not have propagated at all.
Verified 182 pass / 1 skip / 0 warnings, including 15 live tests against a real
SQL Server 2022 (the SQLite suite ported case-for-case, so any behavioural
divergence between the stores fails) and a 9-test in-process 2-node Akka
cluster over real remoting. A post-build review caught six defects, all fixed
and now covered: both replication modes could not resolve from the container
(no test had built one), an unbounded fetch that broke past SQL Server's
2100-parameter cap, a poison row that aborted the rest of its batch forever,
Enum.Parse on peer input that could restart the actor in a loop, null crypto
blobs crossing the trust boundary, and a silently dropped pull-read failure.
Packed at 0.2.0 and vulnerability-scanned clean; not yet published to the feed.

G-8 (KEK rotation) — built in ZB.MOM.WW.Secrets, lib 0.1.2->0.1.3:
- ISecretCipher.Rewrap(row, oldKek, newKek): re-wraps the per-secret DEK only
(bodies never re-encrypted; revision/timestamps preserved -> invisible to
cluster LWW). Fail-closed on wrong old-KEK id, wrong key bytes, and malformed
wraps; DEK zeroed on all paths.
- ISecretStore.ApplyRewrapAsync(rewrappedRow, expectedCurrentWrappedDek):
updates only the 4 wrap columns + kek_id, compare-and-swap on the current
wrapped DEK so a concurrent set/rotate cannot corrupt a row (closes a
review-caught TOCTOU).
- KekRotationService.RewrapAllAsync + RewrapReport: enumerate all rows incl.
tombstones, idempotent/resumable skip-already-current, bounded CAS-retry,
fail-closed on unknown/identical KEK.
- `secret rewrap-all` CLI verb: key material only via env-var name / file path,
JSON counts report; README section + operator runbook.
Verified: full offline suite green (82 core + 15 UI, 0 regressions) + end-to-end
CLI smoke + adversarial crypto review (all 7 categories PASS; TOCTOU fixed).
G-7 (clustered replication) — designed + planned, no code:
- Fork resolved to build Option A (shared SQL-Server ISecretStore); Akka
replicator ZB.MOM.WW.Secrets.Akka is a deferred phase-2. Design doc +
executable plan + .tasks.json under docs/plans/2026-07-17-secrets-g7-*.
Tracking: components/secrets/GAPS.md + CLAUDE.md secrets row updated.
Live HistorianGateway boot caught that the expander scanned a '_secretsComment' appsettings
value documenting the ${secret:...} syntax, tried to resolve the literal example token, and
crashed boot. The family uses _*Comment keys pervasively, so skip any config key whose leaf
segment starts with '_' (the _comment convention). Functional keys never lead with '_'.
Reference-consumer (HistorianGateway) caught that SecretsAuthorization.AdminRole was
'administrator' (lowercase) while the family canonical role is CanonicalRole.Administrator.
ASP.NET role claims compare case-sensitively (Ordinal), so a real admin got 403 on the
secrets UI. Now nameof(CanonicalRole.Administrator).
