In what section of the constitution is this secession mechanism explained? I see where the framers put in the procedures on how states are added or their boundaries changed. I’m sure with something this important, a state leaving the union, the framers would have explained the method of how this is done.

you have it backwards. If something is not set out clearly in the constitution then it is a power the states have - not the federal government. Read the 10th amendment.
