D96 — Operations knowledge ships as a bundled skill

Status: implemented (2026-07-24).

Decision. cartographer-ops is a single bundled skill containing the operational server/client playbook: CLI surface, configuration precedence and load-bearing environment variables, health-based diagnosis, drift recovery, conflict routing, and native/k8s upgrades. It travels in the embedded bundle and is provisioned with the other bundled skills; the local test suite loads and validates every bundled skill and asserts the manifest inventory.

Rationale. A bundled skill stays aligned with the installed binary, whereas documentation on main can describe a newer pre-1.0 CLI and tool surface. One concise operational reference keeps the end-to-end runbook available to agents on client machines that do not have the repository checked out.
