The control plane's manifest existed twice: at the root of its repository, read
whenever the mesh rebuilds it from source, and as a copy in the catalogue, read by
genesis. Nothing kept them equal, and the first rebuild replaced the mesh's record
with the repository's shape while every later push was refused (novox/hq
04-ISSUES/072). The builder's one-shot result already carries the manifest it built,
artifact resolved to the image; step 3 keeps it and step 9 registers it, re-pinning
the built image's bare id to the reference the registry assigned. The catalogue is
still read for the registry's and the builder's manifests and for phase two.
