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: 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.
