Why: env -i dropped SVC_STUB_*, so recovery tests saw an empty serve record even though the bound DSN was still passed.
Evidence: SELF python3 -m unittest tests.test_svc.SvcDbRecoveryTests tests.test_svc_lifecycle_isolation — 34 tests OK.
Impact: only SVC_STUB_* is added at launch; serve.env still omits them, and caller AGENT_SYSTEM_* stays out of the process.
Refs: #485
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Why: main already has one release transaction, so this branch keeps that path and only isolates update and recover in a clean child.
Evidence: SELF bash -n scripts/svc.sh; python3 -m unittest identity/recover/deploy/u2/lifecycle pin 92 tests OK (2 skipped), then 66 tests OK after dropping the obsolete journal hook.
Impact: deploy uses releases/ and deploy.journal; the lifecycle child reconciles that journal before deploy or recover. Backend pin is 0f192a4.
Refs: #485
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Why: an update that stops the old process and overwrites the binary cannot
get the previous version back, and a migration the old binary cannot read
must be refused before that stop. CI also had no fixed RDM SHA to build from.
Evidence: python3 -m unittest tests.test_svc_identity tests.test_svc_recover tests.test_svc_deploy_txn tests.test_lifecycle_pin passed. make test-lifecycle exits 2 when AGENT_PG_TEST_DSN is unset.
Impact: installs land in releases/<rid> and current switches with mv -T.
Deploy keeps the desired state and rolls back a non-terminal journal.
Schema compatFloor above the installed target is refused unless
--migrate-schema --confirm is paired with a backup. test-lifecycle fails
closed without PostgreSQL and an RDM checkout. Login stays NOT_RUN.
Refs: recovery plan r3.1 D2 and D3; Backend feature/d1-identity-open
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Why: probing identity by running the subcommand still launched old RDM
builds, and ensure on a missing database created an empty one. A batch
update also inherited the caller's AGENT_SYSTEM_* variables.
Evidence: python3 -m unittest tests.test_svc_identity tests.test_svc_recover passed (41 tests, 1 skipped). tests.test_svc_lifecycle_isolation caller-env and restart cases passed.
Impact: capability probes use version --json only. Established instances
refuse a missing identity row until adopt --confirm. update and recover
run each service in a clean environment. serve reads a 0600 serve.env
and does not inherit the caller environment. Backend and documents pins
move to the D1 identity and recovery-plan commits.

Why: include the current integration baseline before verification.
Evidence: fetched origin/main=3b9cf82cd6fb53f973f26e2039275f7858b0c654.
Impact: integrate upstream changes without rewriting task history.
Refs: task-sync
Why: deploy overwrote live artifacts after stopping the old service, so
a failed start or workbench check left instances in a mixed
registration-vs-artifact state with no recovery path (2026-10-12
rdm1/rdmcand); the report's U2 requires restorable updates.
Evidence: make test-governance 250 OK; five svc suites 105 OK (rows in
the task card); new tests cover layout/pidcheck stability, rollback on
start failure with desired-state restore, build failure keeping the old
service running, interrupted-switch journal resolution, and schema-
advance blocking rollback without touching the database.
Impact: agent deploys stage immutable releases/<id>/ and switch the
current symlink atomically; deploy.journal persists the switch and is
resolved at start/restart/deploy/update/recover entries; legacy layouts
are adopted on first deploy and remain readable; release/rdm tracks
verify sha256 before staging.

Why: batch update leaked AGENT_SYSTEM_INSTANCE_ID/DBREF from one service
to the next, and RDM artifacts without the identity CLI were stopped and
overwritten before their startup identity refusal surfaced, leaving
rdm1/rdmcand in a mixed registration-vs-artifact state (2026-10-12).
Evidence: make test-governance 217 OK; tests.test_svc_identity and
tests.test_svc_precheck green; rows recorded in the task card.
Impact: env_config resets identity env per service; capability probe is
timeout-guarded and rejects serve-shaped output; identity ensure moves
to adoption/init (bare start is verify-only); deploy builds and gates
candidates before stopping the old service (refuses identityless
candidates, completes missing identity rows via the candidate); update
runs svc_manifest_migrate like every other lifecycle entry.
Refs: .task/feature-svc-identity-u1.md; user root-cause report 2026-10-12.

# Conflicts:
# tests/test_svc.py
Why: Batch update --all left SVC_PIDCHECK from the prior service in
memory, so pid_alive/reclaim_own_port misclassified the next service's
process as dead/foreign, deleted svc.pid, and failed start on a still-
occupied port (genui/rdm1/rdmcand after successful dev).
Evidence: make test-governance (SELF; receipt /tmp/svc-pidcheck-gov.json);
new test_batch_update_stops_second_service_despite_prior_pidcheck +
SVC_PIDCHECK ratchet in test_svc_precheck.
Impact: env_config clears SVC_PIDCHECK/EXEC/VERSION/SOURCE per service;
batch update correctly stops and restarts each agent. After merge:
restore genui/rdm1/rdmcand and move rdmcand to its own data dir.
Refs: .task/feature-svc-pidcheck-leak.md; complements #456 reclaim_own_port
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Why: genui update cleared svc.pid without killing the process, then
overwrote the binary and failed start with a false "non-ours" port error.
Evidence: make test-governance (receipt /tmp/svc-reclaim-governance.json)
Impact: reclaim_own_port walks ss listener ancestry; stop/check_port/install
wire it; orphans matching pidcheck are stopped, foreign occupants still refused
Refs: fix/svc-reclaim-own-port
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Why: RDM agent deploy left workbench htdocs unserved (prompt-only), so
environments like dev silently offered API-only 404 pages after a source
switch; static first-start also misclassified http.server as dead when
pidcheck was unset.
Evidence: CMD="make test-governance" make evidence (200 ok, 1 skipped; SELF).
Impact: rdm deploy auto-starts <name>web and asserts UI 200; cross-kind
redeploy needs --allow-source-switch; list/info flag missing workbench.

Why: increment 3 of the 2026-10-12 diagnostic - the change-password modal

SettingInput masked all free-text config values.

Impact: resolves the modules/frontend gitlink to the component merge head.
Refs: parent evidence in this task card.
Why: the 2026-10-11 runtime/ deletion lost all agent SQLite data with no
backup; the svc-autorecover closing report left "agent SQLite backup" as
a follow-up and the user asked to land it (recovery plan U2 residue).
Evidence: tests/test_svc_backup.py 11/11 green locally (live WAL writer,
manifest sha, retention, guards); make test-governance full suite green
(159 tests, rerun twice after one unreproduced flake).
Impact: new service-level actions backup/backups; snapshots live in
runtime-backups/<name>/ outside runtime/; rm --purge removes them; pg
backup and other flows unchanged.
Refs: modules/documents/docs/proposals/2026-10-12-service-restart-data-recovery.md r2 (sec 6, U2 residue); task card .task/feature-svc-agent-backup.md.
Why: the rdm-audit entry must hide on plain bases lacking rdm.inspect.*
commands (2026-10-12 diagnostic, increment 2), and the dev-repo e2e driver
needs a plain-base phase to prove it end to end.
Evidence: frontend e058adc carries the gating (vitest 23 files / 112 tests
incl. new contract matrix; tsc -b && vite build pass); full e2e rerun
follows this commit (RDM combo + plain base phases).
Impact: modules/frontend pin 360d640 -> e058adc; scripts/e2e.sh gains
phase 4 (same $DATA served by the base CLI, plain-base.playwright.ts);
task card records scope, authorization chain and stage table.
Refs: 2026-10-12 diagnostic report, increment 2.
Why: systemd's default KillMode=control-group kills every process in
the unit's cgroup when the oneshot finishes -- the daemon recover just
started died seconds after the recover ok event (observed live on the
host: revived at 22:13:40, gone by 22:13:42).
Evidence: unit text now carries KillMode=process (asserted in
test_watchdog_print_plan); suite 10/10 and make test-governance rerun
recorded on the card; live re-demo on the host after merge.
Impact: scripts/svc.sh wd_service_text only.

Why: check_port_free consulted port_owner (ss -ltnp) only, so the
/dev/tcp fallback added to port_listening never ran on the start path;
CI (no iproute2) still started onto a thief-held port.
Evidence: no-ss simulation refuses a bound port and passes a free one;
full suite 10/10 and make test-governance rerun recorded on the card;
CI on the new head is authoritative.
Impact: scripts/svc.sh check_port_free only.
Refs: .task/feature-svc-autorecover.md
Why: the CI runner container has no iproute2, so port_listening went
blind: recover started a service onto a thief-held port and the health
probe hit the thief (HTTP 200), reporting a bogus start success.
Evidence: no-ss PATH simulation shows the fallback detects a bound port
and passes free ports; make test-governance rerun recorded on the task
card; CI on the new head is authoritative.
Impact: scripts/svc.sh port_listening only (ss stays primary when
present).
Refs: .task/feature-svc-autorecover.md
Why: RDM capabilities (two-trees-one-net, rdm.* trace-audit command face)
only exist in the downstream Agent-System-RDM composite binary; svc's three
existing sources all produce the Dev binary, so none of it could be deployed
or lifecycle-managed. This adds --from rdm[@<sha>] with the same isolated
source-repo semantics as the dev source.
Evidence: make test-governance 138/138 (two new stub cases: deploy E2E and
commits/update track); real deployment rdm@2aef3fc recorded in the task card
(pins materialized, pure-Go build, web workbench to htdocs, serve health OK,
rdm.ping/rdm.inspect.capabilities committed, update --check reports latest);
make test full suite exit=0. All segments written by make evidence.
Impact: scripts/svc.sh (rdm source resolution/materialization/deploy/update/
commits, probe timeouts, rdm seed skip, ELF env-DSN evidence fallback),
docs/svc.md 5.4, tests/test_svc.py. RDM-side CLI alignment landed as RDM
PR #228; no base submodules touched.

Evidence: fetched origin/main=acc8bf124c04b89ed05093467ebce865934bdddc.

Refs: task-sync
Why: svc services are bare nohup'd processes with persisted registration
but no supervision -- a crash, an OOM kill, or a reboot left them dead
until manual restart (2026-10-11 outage: dev service lost, runtime/ also
wiped by hand, nothing brought services back).
Evidence: tests/test_svc_recover.py 10 cases green (start records
autostart, stop clears it incl. dead-process stop, SIGKILL then recover
revives with persisted exec=, lock-held skips, port-stolen fails with
recover fail event, watchdog unit text via --print); make test-governance
146/146 OK locally; real-machine watchdog install + kill -9 revival to be
recorded on the task card.
Impact: svc.sh gains autostart key in svc.env, `recover [name]
[--quiet]` (postgres-first, per-service .start.lock, recover history
events), `watchdog install|remove|status` (systemd user timer, cron
fallback hint), lifecycle lock across start/stop/restart/deploy/update;
spawned services no longer inherit the lock fd (9>&-), and lock release
no longer clobbers script stderr. Makefile adds svc-recover/svc-watchdog;
docs/svc.md documents semantics and boundaries.
Refs: task card .task/feature-svc-autorecover.md; docs/svc.md 6.5/6.6;
parallel planning card feature/service-restart-recovery-plan (same
problem space, plan-stage).
Why: task-sync advanced the Dev backend gitlink past the RDM pin; a newer-schema user-create CLI migrates the fresh store beyond what the RDM binary (schema ceiling of its pin) can open.
Evidence: reproduce on 20261011-180439 run (v25 store vs v24 binary); rerun green recorded after this change.
Impact: scripts/e2e.sh only; seeding and serving now share one base version.
Why: git submodule clone over the flaky Gitea SSH endpoint hangs the whole run; local archive + pinned-checkout snapshot removes the network dependency and cuts the build stage to seconds.
Evidence: this exact tree ran scripts/e2e.sh to green (4 passed) twice, recorded in the task card.
Impact: scripts/e2e.sh only; behavior unchanged when the network is healthy.
Why: U4 acceptance needs a reproducible real-browser run: build the
RDM binary from its origin/main, seed projects/ingest via the command
API, serve with auth on, and drive Playwright against vite preview.
Evidence: scripts/e2e.sh --seed-only smoke (in progress this task);
frontend pin points at the Playwright harness commit.
Impact: dev tooling only (.tmp artifacts ignored; no runtime changes).
Refs: task feature/rdm-e2e-acceptance; frontend feature branch of
the same name.
Why: seed_settings PUTs /api/settings/user without credentials, so under the PG tier's always-on auth the seed always 401s and model config silently never lands (reproduced on the dev instance 2026-10-11; settings had to be written by hand).
Evidence: make test-governance && make test exit=0 (receipt 8ffc3a89); tests/test_svc.py adds three stub-based cases - auth-on seeds with a Bearer header and create/revoke around the PUT, --seed-owner skips account lookup, auth-off stays credential-free; 14/14 svc tests green.
Impact: deployments that pass SVC_MODEL_*/SVC_TAVILY_KEYS now seed reliably regardless of auth mode; a temporary apikey (name=svc-seed) is minted for the first admin (or --seed-owner/SVC_SEED_OWNER) and revoked right after; auth-off path unchanged.
Refs: task card feature-svc-seed-auth.
Why: main landed fix-svc-dsn-reuse-dbref (reuse-path dbref restore, env-DSN
aware precheck, DSN_ENV scoping) for the same restart-DSN incident; the
approved recovery plan is its superset and replaces those mechanisms with
resolve_db_config + recoverable svc.env keys + refuse-on-invalid semantics.
Evidence: tests/test_svc_precheck.py ported to the new units (18 cases green,
same scenario matrix; broken-dbref expectation updated to refusal per the
approved plan); tests/test_svc.py 11 cases green; bash -n OK.
Impact: conflict hunks resolved toward the unified resolver; main's source
guard at the script tail restored; agent_listen_rejected kept as a pure
predicate (used by the start precheck and the governance tests).
Refs: main 7acf318 (PR #317); task card .task/feature-svc-db-config-recover.md.
Why: the exec= reuse path stripped --dsn into the process environment (G1-7)
and record_state then persisted a DSN-less exec=, while the dbref fallback only
existed in the explicit-rebuild branch - the second bare restart after a
rebind silently dropped the database (SQLite fallback on loopback). Auth
preflight also matched --dsn on the command line only, so env-delivered DSN
with auth=auto was misjudged as unauthenticated.
Evidence: bash -n OK; make test-governance 115 tests OK (new tests/test_svc.py
11 cases; 10/11 fail against the pre-fix script); make test green; make build
OK; isolated real PostgreSQL 18.6 + real binary validation 27/27 (consecutive
restarts/deploy keep binding, psql-verified database identity, DB-down restart
fails without SQLite fallback or config loss, no credential leakage) - all
recorded via make evidence in the task card.
Impact: svc.env gains db=/dbref=/dsn= recovery keys (atomic 0600 writes);
start/restart/deploy/update/db share one resolver; invalid bindings, config
conflicts, mock coexistence and env-DSN-incapable binaries now refuse to
start instead of silently downgrading; legacy exec= DSN migrates idempotently;
docs/svc.md and script help updated.
Refs: task card .task/feature-svc-db-config-recover.md; user-approved plan
(2026-10-11 session message); AGENTS.md evidence gates.
Why: G1-7 moved the DSN into AGENT_SYSTEM_DSN, but the precheck only read
the arg string, so a non-loopback restart with auth auto was wrongly
rejected (2026-10-10 dev incident); the reuse path no longer restored the
dbref-bound DSN and would silently fall back to SQLite; and DSN_ENV leaked
across same-process starts (update --all) into other services' env.
Evidence: tests/test_svc_precheck.py 19 cases green (auth matrix vs
config.go AuthEnabled, reuse migration/dbref restore, scope isolation);
full governance suite 123 green; incident-scenario replay allowed + DSN
carried. Recorded via make evidence.
Impact: scripts/svc.sh precheck and reuse-start DSN handling only; no
binary change, no persistence-format change.
Refs: .task/fix-svc-dsn-reuse-dbref.md; config.go AuthEnabled (on || (not
off && DSN non-empty), env DSN counts).
Why: the plan section 3.4 observed the local dev service carrying the
credential-bearing DSN as a serve --dsn argument, visible to any
process on the host (ps / /proc/<pid>/cmdline) — including scripts
generated by agents. The base config layer already supports
AGENT_SYSTEM_DSN, so the launcher can move the secret out of the
argument vector without touching the binary.
Evidence: bash -n clean; make test-governance 104/104 green; an
end-to-end probe with a stub binary and a legacy exec= carrying
--dsn ...secret... shows the migration stripping the flag
(MIGRATED:yes), the process args free of the secret
(NO-LEAK-IN-CMDLINE), and AGENT_SYSTEM_DSN present in the process
environment (DSN_IN_ENV:yes). New/rebuilt launches never put the DSN
in argv; legacy persisted configs are migrated on first reuse.
Impact: scripts/svc.sh only — rebuild path sets DSN_ENV instead of
--dsn, reuse path strips --dsn from stored exec= once and logs the
migration, launch injects AGENT_SYSTEM_DSN alongside the existing
guard vars. CLI --dsn still wins inside the binary (config
precedence), so manual invocations are unchanged.

Why: backend #83 merged the slow-lane wiring (intentsem scorer/
generator, gate SetSemantic/SetGenerator, settings flags default off);
the Dev pins and boundary rules must move with it.
Evidence: backend CI green on 9d29371; check-pins consistent
(agent-intent 343b1e6 across Dev and the backend nested copy);
lint-boundaries registers intentsem as an agent-intent adapter and the
architecture baseline gains backend/app->backend/intentsem.
Impact: product behavior unchanged by default; the two
runtime.intent* flags opt into the slow lane.
Refs: Agent-System-Backend#83, I2 increment 3
Why: preserve project direction across tasks and require grounded next-task recommendations.

Impact: document the planning entrypoint and extend task records without granting new-task execution rights.
Refs: .task/feature-goal-continuity.md; policy/delivery.md
