+# PRD prd-new: Multi-parent `extends:` for bottles
+
+- **Status:** Draft
+- **Author:** didericis
+- **Created:** 2026-06-25
+- **Issue:** #268
+- **Extends:** PRD 0025 (`0025-bottle-extends.md`)
+
+## Summary
+
+Allow a bottle's `extends:` field to accept either a single bottle name (existing
+behavior) or a list of bottle names (new). Multiple parents are resolved
+independently and folded left-to-right into a single effective parent before the
+child is merged on top. This lets orthogonal concerns (base env, networking/egress,
+agent provider) live in separate bottles and be composed without forcing them into a
+linear chain.
+
+## Problem
+
+PRD 0025 shipped single-parent `extends:` and listed "No multi-parent inheritance"
+as a non-goal. In practice, users want to compose multiple orthogonal bottles — a
+base environment, a networking profile, and an agent-provider override — without
+creating a three-level linear chain that couples unrelated parents to each other.
+The linear chain workaround has two problems:
+
+1. **Ordering constraint.** `networking extends base` works, but then
+   `agent extends networking` can't also pick up `base` without going through
+   `networking`, coupling two unrelated concerns.
+
+2. **Quadratic duplication.** N orthogonal bottles require O(N²) chain variants
+   (one chain per permutation of applied concerns).
+
+Multi-parent `extends:` removes both constraints: each orthogonal concern stays in
+its own bottle, and the child bottle is the only place that names the combination.
+
+## Goals / Success Criteria
+
+- `extends:` accepts a list of strings in addition to a plain string.
+- Backward compat: existing single-string `extends:` is unchanged.
+- Parents are resolved left-to-right; later entries win on conflict.
+- Child wins over all parents (unchanged from PRD 0025).
+- Cycle detection covers multi-parent graphs, not just linear chains.
+- Diamond inheritance: a shared ancestor is resolved once (via the existing cache).
+- Invalid list entries (non-string, undefined bottle, self-reference) die at parse
+  with clear messages.
+- `manifest_loader.py`'s `load_bottle_chain_from_dir` enqueues all parents from a
+  list `extends:` so the resolver sees every bottle in the graph.
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- No change to the agent-vs-bottle trust boundary (PRD 0025 "Alternatives
+  considered" option 2 stays rejected).
+- No MRO / C3 linearization. Left-to-right fold is sufficient for the expected use
+  cases.
+- No preflight display of per-field provenance across multiple parents (same open
+  question as PRD 0025; remains a follow-up).
+
+## Design
+
+### Schema
+
+`extends:` now accepts either form:
+
+```yaml
+# single parent (unchanged)
+extends: base
+
+# multiple parents (new)
+extends: [base, networking]
+```
+
+Both forms are normalized to a list internally. A list with one element behaves
+identically to the string form.
+
+### Merge rules for multi-parent fold
+
+Parents are folded pairwise left-to-right before the child merge. For each step in
+the fold, the "earlier" bottle is the running accumulator and the "later" bottle is
+the next parent. Rules per field:
+
+| Field              | Fold rule                                                    |
+|--------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------|
+| `env`              | dict merge; later wins on key collision                      |
+| `git-gate.user`    | per-field overlay; later's non-empty fields win              |
+| `git-gate.repos`   | union by name; for same-name entries, later wins per-field   |
+| `egress.routes`    | concatenate (earlier first, later appended)                  |
+| `egress.log`       | later wins (last-wins)                                       |
+| `agent_provider`   | later wins (last-wins)                                       |
+| `supervise`        | later wins (last-wins)                                       |
+
+After the fold, the combined parent is merged against the child using the existing
+PRD 0025 rules (child always wins). The child's `egress.routes` appends to the
+combined parent's concatenated routes; `validate_egress_routes` runs once on the
+final merged set and catches duplicate hosts.
+
+### Algorithm
+
+```
+extends: [p1, p2, p3]
+
+fold:
+  combined = resolve(p1)
+  combined = fold_two(combined, resolve(p2))
+  combined = fold_two(combined, resolve(p3))
+
+merge:
+  result = _merge_bottles(combined, child_raw, name)
+```
+
+`fold_two(earlier, later)` applies the rules in the table above. Cycle detection
+(the `seen` tuple) is passed to each parent resolution call unchanged — if any
+parent's chain circles back to the current bottle, it is caught. The `cache` dict
+ensures a shared ancestor is only resolved once across all parents.
+
+### Error cases
+
+| Condition                              | Error message shape                                              |
+|----------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| `extends` is not a string or list      | `extends must be a string or list of strings (was <type>)`       |
+| A list entry is not a string           | `extends[<i>] must be a string (was <type>)`                     |
+| A list entry names an undefined bottle | `extends '<name>' which is not defined. Available bottles: ...`  |
+| A list entry is the bottle itself      | `extends itself; remove the self-reference`                      |
+| Cycle through any parent edge          | `is in an extends cycle: <chain>`                                |
+
+## Implementation
+
+### `bot_bottle/manifest_extends.py`
+
+- `_resolve_one_bottle`: accept `str | list[str]` for `extends`; normalize to list;
+  validate each entry; for a single-entry list fall through to the existing
+  single-parent path; for multiple entries call `_fold_parents` then
+  `_merge_bottles`.
+- `_fold_parents(parent_names, raws, cache, repos_cache, seen)`: resolve each
+  parent and fold pairwise left-to-right; return `(effective_bottle,
+  effective_repos_raw)`.
+- `_fold_two_bottles(earlier, earlier_repos_raw, later, later_repos_raw)`: apply
+  the fold rules above; return `(folded_bottle, folded_repos_raw)`.
+
+### `bot_bottle/manifest_loader.py`
+
+- `load_bottle_chain_from_dir`: when `extends` is a list, enqueue all parent names
+  for loading (previously only `isinstance(parent, str)` was handled).
+
+### `tests/unit/test_manifest_extends.py`
+
+- `TestExtendsErrors.test_non_string_extends_dies`: update to use an integer
+  `extends` value (a list is now valid).
+- New class `TestExtendsMultiParent` covering all cases listed in the issue.
+
+## Testing strategy
+
+Unit tests via `ManifestIndex.from_json_obj` (same resolver surface used by all
+paths). No integration test changes needed — downstream code consumes the already-
+merged bottle and is unchanged.
+
+Test cases:
+- Two-parent list: env union, egress routes concat, git repos union
+- Last-parent-wins on scalar (supervise, agent_provider)
+- Child wins over all parents on conflict
+- Diamond: two parents share an ancestor; ancestor resolved once
+- Single-element list: identical to string form
+- Non-string extends value → ManifestError
+- Non-string list entry → ManifestError
+- Undefined bottle in list → ManifestError
+- Self-reference in list → ManifestError
+- Cycle through multi-parent edge → ManifestError
