$DSH_HOME/.env carried two incompatible jobs. As credentials-local's writable secret store it could not be hoisted into process.env — hoisting makes every stored key read as a read-only launch override and blocks rotation from the TUI and the web page. But its name and dotenv format promise an environment file, so a DEEPSEEK_BASE_URL sitting beside a working DEEPSEEK_API_KEY in the same file was silently ignored: only the credential provider read the document, and it addresses credential references alone. Split the two jobs into two files. .credentials.yaml is the provider-managed store: a strict YAML mapping of CredentialRef to non-empty string, no version field, no wrapper level. Because it holds credentials and nothing else, a non-mapping root, a non-identifier key, a non-string value, an empty string, a duplicate key, and malformed YAML are all rejections rather than skipped entries — loud at boot and at a write, warn-and-keep-last-good on a live reload. The dotenv physical-line editor gives way to a patch of the parsed document, so comments and untouched entries keep their formatting and any string value round-trips, multi-line included. Writer lock, read-modify-write, atomic 0600 write under a 0700 directory, watcher, self-write suppression, and quiescent disposal are unchanged. $DSH_HOME/.env becomes the user's ordinary environment layer. app-boot's new loadLayeredEnv loads the invoking directory's .env then the Harness home's, giving user < project < inherited; the home resolves from the inherited environment first, so a project .env cannot redirect it. Credential precedence is unchanged: the live environment still wins read-only over the file, and shadowed writes still reject. Whether a provider-managed store should instead win over the environment is a separate decision. No migration: a key already in $DSH_HOME/.env keeps resolving through the new environment layer, as a read-only env source that shadows the stored one.
