+Built in mesh-host 68 (`capabilities` on a container), mesh-controller 212 (the seat's three verbs)
+and 213 (the filter file a module names under `filtering.into` counts as declared for a mount — the
+module's first build was refused without it), mesh-catalog 216 (the nftables module's runtime and
+verbs) and mesh-tools 27 (the console lists a node-scoped seat's verbs with their scope and carries the
+machine; before it, the verbs were live on four machines and unreachable from the console —
+[issue 199](../04-ISSUES/199-a-node-scoped-seats-verb-could-not-be-called-through-the-console/00-report.md)).
+Each machine's holder was issued its bus account with `mesh-controller.issue`, the broker node pushed
+first. At 12:46Z the five rule sets ADR 0168 had named were removed through
+`node-packet-filter.remove`, three on the home server and two on the control node, each answering
+with the commands it ran; the next report read *the mesh alone* on all four machines and `status`
+listed nothing under `filtered`. The live row is read. What it cost on the way is
+[issue 200](../04-ISSUES/200-the-controllers-answer-to-the-console-is-refused-by-the-bus/00-report.md).
