The pointers back from what yesterday's records changed, which I missed twice
Three records were left describing a mechanism a new record had moved, and a reader arrives at them by following a citation: 0066 still said a routed name is written into every container after 0148 replaced that with resolution; 0016 still read as though the lab were the test bed after 0149; and issues 109 and 135 said nothing about 0148 ending the copying that 135's own fix made comparable. Each was a citation leading to the wrong answer in a record that was not wrong about anything it decided. This is the second time in one session. The playbook rule I added last round did not stop it, so the convention is now written where the record conventions live, with the shape to use and three worked examples — and with the honest note that it is NOT machine-checked and cannot be from `extends:` alone: 102 records extend another, 87 have no back-reference, and that is correct, because extending usually means building on a context. Making it mechanical means a record declaring the relationship in frontmatter, which is a schema change and is not mine to decide. Also: designs 18 and 20 claimed `updated:` dates from before I edited them, and 117's `fixed-by` gained the commit beside the record.

## What replaced this fix (2026-09-30)
|
||||
|
||||
The fix here — putting the mesh's names into the digest the host compares, so a container whose names
|
||||
moved is recreated like one whose image moved — worked, and cost more than it was worth. It made the
|
||||
roster part of every container's identity, so one name moving replaced every container in the mesh: a
|
||||
module assigned on one machine restarted the store, the registry, the edge and mail on another
|
||||
([issue 151](../151-a-new-name-recreates-every-container-in-the-mesh/00-report.md)).
|
||||
|
||||
[ADR 0148](../../02-DECISIONS/0148-the-meshs-names-are-resolved-not-copied-into-containers.md) goes at
|
||||
the cause this record only described: **a copy taken at creation is stale the moment the roster moves,
|
||||
and detecting that is not as good as not copying.** A container resolves the mesh's names through its
|
||||
machine's resolver, at the moment it asks, so the fault this record reports cannot occur rather than
|
||||
being noticed a restart later.
|
||||
|
||||
Recorded here because this is where somebody arrives to find out why the digest carries names, and the
|
||||
answer is that it did, for two days short of a month, and stopped.
