Extends ADR 0075. Surfaced fixing builder's hand-faked package-registry
binding tonight: gitea's manifest declares the provision once with a single
npm-path, conflating what should be independently assignable per ecosystem
(npm/cargo/docker/...) the same way artifact-store and package-registry
were themselves split. Cited in 22-the-work-ahead.md's Phase 2, where the
target state this decision points at was already described a week ago.
Numbered 109, not 108: route-proxy's policy feature (mesh-controller PR
still-unwritten decision record — reserved but never committed. Renumbered
around it rather than colliding.
The flow the process overview draws — idea/symptom -> decision -> to-be design -> code ->
as-is — was enforced by nothing. cycle.py now refuses a to-be design naming no decision, an
in-progress/implemented design naming no owning code, a located/fixed issue with no owner,
a fixed/resolved issue with no fix, and a graduated research overview that does not say what
it became. AGENTS.md carries the cycle and a where-to-look table so a fresh session (or a
cleared context) finds the chain in frontmatter instead of assuming it. Grounding the check
surfaced two real gaps, fixed here: the work-ahead design named no owning code, and research
003 listed one became target twice.

Marks WBS 3.2/3.3/3.4 done and resolves issue 051: the foundation's store and
broker are adopted in place as the postgres and lavinmq modules, upgradeable
through their stated windows, source-tracked by status. A bare-metal mesh runs
one postgres and one lavinmq, proven 22/22 in the one-node lab. The two follow-up
gaps are tracked as issues 054 and 055.

"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.

Records the decision the package-registry work turns on — the SDK is built on a
public base and published before the toolchain that consumes it, so nothing is
circular; mesh-tools stays the thin toolchain base but resolves the SDK by
version. Reconciles docs 12/17/22 and indexes the record.

The protocol spec claimed the envelope and grant drifted across implementations.
Inspection showed the wire agrees — envelope required headers match, the two
optional ones are legitimately optional, and the grant wire (the contributions
file) is identical on both sides. The disagreement was in dead types, now removed.
So phase 1's 'make them agree' work is done by deletion and correction. What
remains is a conformance fixture as prevention — pinning the envelope and the
contributions file so a future change that breaks agreement fails a test — and a
full per-capability suite is deferred until a third language actually needs it.

The correction the operator pushed: stop running a 20-minute lab against a mesh
mid-transformation, debugging paths the next phase deletes. The base-build hang
is almost certainly the SDK resolving from a git URL inside a docker build (issue
053), which Phase 2 removes — so debugging it on the current shape is debugging
deprecated code.
Phase 0 folds in: the installer's own regressions are fixed and committed;
whether it runs green is the final acceptance test, after the phases that change
its build path are in. Faults that can be reasoned out of the code path are, by
reading rather than running.

Everything decided this cycle and not yet built. Phase 0 gets the installer
green, because nothing else is testable end to end without it. Phase 1 makes the
protocol one thing and fixes the Go/TS drift the installer's own provisioning
exercises. Phase 2 stands up the private package registry ADR 0014 assumes and
publishes the SDK into it. Phase 3 adopts the substrate so one postgres and one
lavinmq serve everything, which is the hardest and needs all three above.
Order is dependency, not preference. Each phase ends at a run rather than a
paragraph, because a phase that ends at a claim is how things went missing this
cycle without anything complaining.
