A seeded file is created once (0087); the foundation filters before anything
listens (0088); a machine becomes the last thing it was told (design 05).
Each says how it is checked.
The installer half of the amended ADR 0085 is built and proven by the
genesis bed's root-secrets step; the foundation design closes its open item
and the installation design says what the installer does and what it still
cannot check.
Recorded on the record, dated, before anything shipped against the sentences
that change. The vault is installed at genesis like the store and broker, one
per mesh, and holds every secret a module has for itself sealed a second time
to an operator key whose private half never enters the mesh — the break-glass
path the first version left open, without a key one place holds.
Design 24 says how; 07 and 21 say what genesis does not yet do; issue 071
names the fixed credentials the foundation is raised with today.
The glossary's authority page still named the controller's seat the-controller in two
entries, contradicting its own seat section after ADR 0079; issue 058's heading kept the
pre-renumber 059; 055's fixed-by named branches that stop existing after merge (now merge
commits/PRs) and its located-in listed file paths where the convention wants repos; 056's
located-in named mesh-host, which received no fix, instead of mesh-catalog; and the design
layer never said the one-store/one-broker property is enforced — 07-the-foundation and the
installation table now state the seats.

The store and broker were "one per mesh" by convention only. Each foundation module now
claims a mesh-scoped seat named after the server it guards — postgres/mesh-store,
lavinmq/mesh-broker — and the controller's seat is renamed the-controller -> mesh-controller
so all three follow one rule. The resolver refuses a second holder, closing 056. Glossary,
the foundation and installation docs, and the decisions index follow the new name.

Settles the design repository now that the self-upgrade build is on main:
- Records the two decisions that shipped without a record — ADR 0077 (the
controller/foundation/node vocabulary) and ADR 0078 (the store and broker are
ordinary modules); accepts ADR 0075 and 0076, which shipped work rests on.
- Fills issue 051's amended-design and wires ADR 0078 into 07-the-foundation.
- Sweeps the repo rename (mesh-control -> mesh-controller) into the mutable docs
now that the forge repo is renamed; updates the glossary note and repos.md.
- Fixes the six broken links from the design-doc renames, indexes the glossary,
regenerates the decisions reading order.
Both checks (records.py, index.py) are green. Statuses stay honest: the build is
on main and lab-proven but not deployed as the production mesh, so the to-be docs
remain in-progress and the as-is layer (the hal mesh) is unchanged — graduation
to implemented + as-is belongs to deployment, not merge.

"control plane" -> controller and "substrate" -> foundation throughout
03-DESIGN, 00-META and the README, with 06-the-control-plane.md and
07-the-substrate.md renamed to 06-the-controller.md and 07-the-foundation.md.
The immutable 02-DECISIONS records keep their original wording (and links to
them are unchanged) — a term retired here may still appear there, which the
glossary explains how to read.
