Three related fixes from the test audit.
**The CLI journey fixture gets its own database.** It spawned a real picloud —
whose dispatcher/orchestrator claim loops are global by design (one instance owns
one database) — against the shared dev DB, so it could claim the manager-core
suites' outbox/workflow rows (the same class of bug already fixed for the e2e
suites, one binary over). It now clones one dedicated database per journey run
from the migrated template. test-support gains `named_test_db_url` (explicit
stable name) + a blocking wrapper for the sync `LazyLock` fixture. The one journey
that talks to Postgres directly (dead-letter injection) now uses the fixture's DB
URL, not the base DATABASE_URL, so it hits the database the server reads.
**workflow_orchestrator moves to per-test databases.** Its `claim_ready_step` is
global, so the old harness serialized every test behind a process-wide CLAIM_LOCK
AND ran `DELETE FROM workflow_runs` (unscoped — it wiped every app's runs) before
each one. A private database per test makes the global claim see only that test's
rows, so both the lock and the unscoped DELETE are deleted.
**DB-backed suites fail loud instead of skipping green.** ~15 manager-core suites
`return None` when DATABASE_URL is unset and report PASS — so in any environment
that lost its database the entire integration surface reports green while running
nothing (why the CI gap went unnoticed for so long). New
`picloud_test_support::abort_if_db_required` panics when `PICLOUD_REQUIRE_DB` is
set (CI now sets it) but DATABASE_URL is not, injected into each suite's skip
path. Local runs without the var still skip cleanly.
Mutation-verified: with PICLOUD_REQUIRE_DB=1 and DATABASE_URL unset, a suite
panics; without the var it skips.

`resolve_owning_group`'s ancestor-chain CTE is the isolation boundary for EVERY
group shared collection — kv, docs, files, topics, queues. Its own doc says so.
Yet no test exercised the actual SQL: the tests that claimed to
(`unrelated_app_gets_collection_not_shared` in the three older group services,
`realtime_authority`'s SSE 404) inject a `FakeResolver` HashMap the test itself
populates — the foreign app resolves to `None` only because the test never
inserted it. They prove the service propagates a `None`; they cannot see the
query that produces it. Dropping `JOIN chain c ON gc.group_id = c.group_owner`
would let ANY app resolve ANY group's shared collection — a cross-tenant breach —
and the whole unit suite would stay green.
This drives the real query over a real tree: a descendant resolves, a
sibling-subtree app gets nothing, the kind filter is part of the boundary (a kv
and a docs collection of one name are distinct stores), nearest-declaration
shadows (security-relevant — a deep app must reach the nearer group's store), an
app-owned marker shares with nobody, and lookup is case-insensitive.
Mutation-verified: with the chain join dropped, the boundary assertion fires — and
under that breach `app_mid` resolves a FOREIGN group's `catalog` left in the DB by
another suite, i.e. the leak reproduces live.
