Context
Current deployment skeletons use mutable image tags. That is acceptable for bootstrap skeletons but release-blocking for production-ready Agent Machine runtime infrastructure.
Required outcome
Add image digest pinning and provenance requirements for release-candidate and production deployment artifacts.
Acceptance criteria
- Document image digest pinning policy.
- Define where image digest appears in AgentPod-derived plans, manifests, deployment receipts, and runtime evidence.
- Prototype/bootstrap skeletons may use tags only when explicitly marked non-production.
- Release-candidate manifests require immutable image digests.
- Provenance/SBOM reference fields are defined where available.
- Renderers can operate in a strict mode that rejects unpinned image references.
