Self-Subs — Status 2026-07-20

Summary

Billing Service now owns the self-subscription operation. Qontak retains POST /api/core/v1/self_subscriptions as the stable authenticated client contract and proxies the request to Billing; clients do not call Billing directly.

Impact

• BIF-8792's shipped Qontak route remains the public boundary.
• The proxy must preserve company identity derivation, idempotency, timeout/retry behavior, and normalized 200/422/503 responses while Billing owns the business operation.
• Any work needed to move the implementation behind that boundary is TBD and absent from Sprint 2's current Jira issue set; record it as a coverage gap rather than assuming it is done.
