Summary
agent-reach doctoras read-onlyactive_backend: nullstateWhy
The update guide contradicted Doctor's current read-only safety boundary and implied that every multi-backend channel always reports an active backend.
Closes #580.
Impact
Update agents will no longer expect diagnostics to modify skill files or treat an intentionally unverified backend as an error.
Validation
