Why: the manager only took configuration from SVC_* environment
variables; binding a public interface or pointing at a database meant
exporting vars first, which is awkward for one-off deploys and
invisible in shell history review.
Evidence: live matrix on the worktree - --port (8801), --host 0.0.0.0
(bind verified via ss, health probe auto-maps to 127.0.0.1), --addr
whole-form, CLI-over-env precedence (--port beats SVC_DEV_ADDR),
--mock reaching the server cmdline, --dsn passthrough proven by the
postgres connect attempt in the log, -- passthrough (--artifacts), and
make svc ARGS passthrough. A set -e silent-exit trap in env_config was
caught by the first run and fixed (condition-as-last-statement).
Impact: scripts/svc.sh <env> [action] [--addr|--host|--port|--data|
--dsn|--auth|--mock|--plugins| -- <extra>]; precedence CLI > env vars >
defaults; help rewritten with examples; make svc gains ARGS; logs keeps
the positional line-count form. The real-world port guard held: a dev
instance started from the main checkout was refused with owner info,
untouched.
