Manifest now holds exactly one agent and one effective bottle (with
git_user overlay already applied). The old multi-agent/bottle
collection is renamed ManifestIndex. BottleSpec.manifest starts as
ManifestIndex from the CLI and becomes Manifest after _validate()
calls load_for_agent(); all provisioning code downstream reads
spec.manifest.agent / spec.manifest.bottle instead of indexing by name.
Manifest.resolve() now returns an empty-dict manifest with only directory
paths recorded (home_md, cwd_md). No content is read from any .md file
until load_for_agent() is called for a specific agent at preflight.
- Manifest.from_md_dirs: scan-only, no frontmatter parsing
- Manifest.load_for_agent: parses the selected agent file and its bottle
chain; works on eager (from_json_obj) manifests too by returning self
- Manifest.all_agent_names: scans filenames in lazy mode
- backend._validate: calls load_for_agent and propagates upgraded spec
- cli/info.py, cli/list.py, cli/start.py: use load_for_agent / all_agent_names
- manifest_extends.py: reverted to original (no partial-resolve helpers)
- manifest_loader.py: only scan_agent_names + load_bottle_chain_from_dir
- Tests updated to call load_for_agent before accessing agents/bottles;
test_md_agent_repos_deferred renamed to test_md_agent_repos_fails_at_preflight
Broken bottle/agent files no longer block the agent selector or prevent
unrelated agents from loading. Per-file parse errors are collected in
`Manifest.broken_agents`; the CLI selector includes them via
`all_agent_names`, and the error surfaces only when the specific agent
is selected and launch is attempted (in `require_agent`/`bottle_for`).
Closes#236
Replace the two mutually-exclusive repo keys (identity and
provisioned_key) with a single required key block. key.provider
is "static" (path to host SSH key) or "gitea" (deploy-key lifecycle
via provisioner_token env var, replacing token_env).
Internal fields: ManifestProvisionedKeyConfig → ManifestKeyConfig;
ProvisionedKey field removed from ManifestGitEntry; Key field added.
git_gate.py checks entry.Key.provider == "gitea" instead of
entry.ProvisionedKey is not None.
Review feedback on #102: a manifest that can't be read should raise an
exception, not call die() (a SystemExit). That SystemExit was the whole
reason the dashboard had to special-case Die.
manifest.py now raises ManifestError (a plain Exception) for every
validation failure. The CLI dispatcher catches it and prints+exits 1
(same UX as before); the dashboard catches it with a normal
`except ManifestError` and degrades to a status-line warning. Manifest
tests assert on ManifestError + its message.

Agents may declare git.user (name/email); it overlays the referenced
bottle's git.user per-field at Manifest.bottle_for (agent wins on
non-empty), mirroring the extends: merge. git.remotes is rejected on
agents — it carries credentials and host trust and stays bottle-only.
The overlay lives at bottle_for, the single chokepoint both backends
use, so the docker/smolmachines git provisioners are unchanged. Adds
Manifest.git_identity_summary with per-field (agent)/(bottle)
provenance, printed in both preflights and `info`.
