Merge order on a protected trunk is kept only as the first filter; the forge's compare, through a new
read-only tool, decides whether a later merge contains a held one. A merge held without a passing check is
covered only by a later delivery whose own check passed. Covered says a later merge that contains it was
delivered, not that the change runs: a revert in between stays possible. A delivery that only adds a module
is delivered whatever its build does, and covered wins over go when a person's walk fails between two
readings. The glossary gains covered beside superseded and delivered.
ADR 0271 names the bus upgrade as the mesh call and says S17 clears once the step sent the new bus.
Issues 319 and 316: fifteen held deliveries asked a person a question with no right answer, and stop,
the only way out, records a delivered change as an error. ADR 0270 delivers a merge that moves nothing at
once, adds the final state covered for a merge a later delivered walk of the same trunk carried, and lifts
a group hold once its composed check passed.
Issue 336: a send held for the bus's planned step raised nothing for 28 minutes. ADR 0271 adds row S17,
said at the first refusal for the operator with the verb, keeps S3 from calling it lateness, and has the
delivery plan say before the merge that a person's bus upgrade follows.
Each issue's diagnosis says what the fix does and how to verify it once delivered.
The operator accepted ADR 0269 on 2026-10-09. ADR 0118 gets the dated note the README asks for where a
later record narrows its mechanism. The node-engine's to-be design names the decision and says what it
changes, which the cycle check requires of an accepted record.
Third review: a person's stopping a unit the mesh also held stopped leaves no trace, so it is started
again on removal; the home server's restored weekly timer would start a scrub of about 46 hours at once.
A masked or since-changed unit is left alone, and a failed restore waits.
Unassigning the zfs module would leave the home server's pool with no scrub schedule: ADR 0118 never
starts a unit on the way out, so the distribution's timer the module held stopped would stay stopped.
The host now records what it declared beside what it found, and gives back only what the mesh's own
declaration stopped.
The operator's decision of 2026-10-09: execute runs any command as an
account that can become root without a person, so the control-node stops
offering it now, and every node marks it as needing approval once the
mark exists. To-be 41 gains WP7 for the seat and the shell module.
A merge to a shared repository moved every module that read it, in a gated
tier each (issue 338). The operator's rule maps a change onto the artifacts
whose build source it touches and adds only modules with a build dependency
on a changed artifact; sharing a repository is no dependency. Supersedes in
part ADR 0162 decision 1 (the packages kind) and ADR 0238 decision 3 (whole
repository and context reads); adds build source to the glossary.
The record said its data is still copied; the shipped follow-up backs it up as this controller reads
it and lists an unplaceable line rather than failing the machine.
The record claimed a left-out module kept what the machine holds for it and that an entry's unknown key
was read like a top-level one; neither is true of the merged controller.
Dropping an unknown key would run a module without something its manifest says. Also name the check by
what a key is about, narrow the listing to one machine, and say how to roll back below this record.
The operator asked for one place that lists every module's preferences and each machine's value, and
for a list of the values the catalogues hard-code that should become preferences.
A stored manifest read strictly would fail the whole catalogue after a controller rollback, and a node
called default would lose its layer. Also scope the default, retire tunable, and list the new checks.
A ${setting:} nothing set failed composition, and settings refused a key no file asked
for yet, so no order of changes could add a setting to a running module. A manifest may
now default a preference; the operator's own value still has none.
The review of mesh-controller#150 found the controller now makes an
assignment after the person's act, which no record decided. Decide it,
cite it from the glossary and to-be 45, and correct issue 325's account
of what is settled where and what is sent.
The SAS sentence now holds for modes with spaces, a hung read is unhealthy in two to three minutes, not
one, every USB drive is told sat, and the limits of a stuck read are recorded.
After the second review: smartd is dropped as a second reader that could wake or keep awake the drives,
a stuck read or a drive not looked at is unhealthy, a drive asleep for a day is HIGH and never unhealthy,
and a board chip's maximum says nothing of a fan. The never-woken and hourly claims now say exactly what
holds.
Review found that ADR 0253 let any process at the operator's session release,
stop or start a delivery in the operator's name, and that its tokens, fallback
words and quiet warnings failed on the paths that go wrong.
