 2026-10-28 founder decision: `svc-provisioner` gets its own account in `lldap_admin`, recorded as
 exception SI-X6 (SI-3, expires 2027-04-30) in the standard and `declarations/lldap.yaml`.
 
+**2026-10-28 phase 2 (source switch), parts a and b:** `identity-provisioner` logs in as
+`LLDAP_ADMIN_USERNAME` (default `admin`) and refuses chosen usernames starting `svc-` or ending
+`-admin` (`2ebc4f0`; its image needs a rebuild through the owner pipeline). Custody: the LLDAP
+custody file now carries `LLDAP_LDAP_USER_PASS` as the `ld-admin` password plus
+`LLDAP_SVC_{AUTHELIA,KEYCAPE,PRIVACYIDEA,PROVISIONER}_PASS`; the human `admin` password leaves
+custody. Consumers: Authelia binds as `svc-authelia` (`ldap_password` from its own key), KeyCape as
+`svc-keycape` (`create-secrets.py`, `bootstrap-config.json`), the privacyIDEA resolver as
+`svc-privacyidea` (`realm_bootstrap.py`), the provisioner from the new Secret
+`identity-provisioner-ldap` (`create-secrets.sh`, deployment, `identity-provisioner-reconcile.py`).
+LLDAP's deployment sets `LLDAP_LDAP_USER_DN=ld-admin`. The image is **not** pinned yet: production
+runs `lldap/lldap:stable`, and pinning to v0.6.2 could downgrade the database; the runbook reads the
+running digest first. Service-account emails use `@service.netkingdom.invalid`. Left: 2c (Authelia
+users filter requiring `net-kingdom-users`, synthetic check), then phases 3 and 4.
