jschoubben 0b9fc90885 ADR 0188: a provider declares what it derives for each consumer, and the mesh tells both ends
Issue 124: a value the mesh's own rule produced reached neither end as a
statement. The object store's provisioner derived each consumer's bucket in
its own code; all three consumers transcribed the rule into their own
definitions, one of them wrong, and each of the three also named the machine
it happens to run on.

A served value may now name the consumer the mesh is serving. Design 27
amended; issue 124 resolved.

04-ISSUES

The front door for "something is wrong" at the level of the mesh's design or governance. Diagnosis happens here, where the whole mesh is in view; the fix lands in the owning code repository.

What belongs here

Belongs here Belongs in the knowledge base
The design permits a failure to be silent How to fix one occurrence of it
A documented rule is enforced by nothing A command that works around it
A stated invariant is false in practice A node-specific quirk
The owner is unknown and finding it needs the whole mesh in view Symptom → fix, once the answer is known

The knowledge base already holds the operational record and is indexed on symptoms. This folder is not a second copy of it. An issue here is a question HQ must answer; an entry there is an incident someone must clear. An issue whose answer is a general lesson belongs in both.

Rules

  • Anyone may open an issue. No localisation is required to report one.
  • The full flow is playbook 00-META/process/03-issues.md.
  • Closed issues are never deleted — they are the mesh's symptom-to-component memory.
  • wontfix is legitimate and requires a sentence saying why.
