+mesh-controller PRs 166 and 167, mesh-tools PR 21. Verified on the live mesh the same evening: the
+console on a workstation lists the twelve verbs as `mesh-controller.<verb>` beside 67 module tools, and
+`mesh-controller.nodes` and `mesh-controller.status` answer through it with what the commands print.
+
+Two things shipped bent. **The grant arrived after the holder started**: the controller composes the
+bus's user list and a push delivers it, so the first controller to serve its seat subscribed before
+the broker's list named the grant, the server refused all twelve subscriptions, and the client never
+retried — a holder now rebinds a refused subscription every thirty seconds (PR 167), and a controller
+roll-out that adds a grant is followed by a push to the broker node. **A JSON verb's answer was parsed
+from both output streams**, so `status --json`'s warnings hid the document as data; the answer is now
+parsed from standard output alone (mesh-controller PR 168, pending). The `output` field carried it
+either way.

+What stays as designed and not built: which verbs any *other* seat serves, and §3 for module-declared

 ## What this does not settle
 
 - Which verbs each seat should serve. That is a decision per seat, and the reason to do it slowly: a
