  1. Acceptance sealed the value and wrote the row without reading the module's manifest, which the mesh holds. Both delivery paths did: a module's own secret, and a pair credential for a requirement kept in the vault.
  2. Refused now, in the inventory, so every caller gets it: an own secret must be one the manifest declares; a pair credential must name a requirement the module has, and where the module keeps several secrets for it (ADR 0094) a local it keeps — and no local where it keeps one. Each refusal names what the module does declare.
  3. The refusal found a stale delivery at once: the whole-mesh bed delivered smtp-pass to a module that declares smtp-password. Corrected in the bed.

Located in: the inventory's two accept paths. Not a decision: the manifest was already the authority on what a module holds. Proven by unit tests against the store: a delivery under an undeclared name is refused naming the declared ones; under a declared name it is kept; to an unknown module it is refused with the remedy; a pair delivery for a requirement the module has not got, or with no local where several are kept, or under a local it does not keep, is refused.

Later the same day. The refusal caught the mesh itself: module issue made a broker account for any module and delivered it as the own secret named broker, whether or not the module declared one — a bed issuing the certificate authority, which speaks on no bus, left an account on the broker that nothing would ever read. module issue now refuses a module with no broker own secret before the account is made; a unit test holds it to that. A pair delivery for a requirement the module keeps no secret for is refused too, on review. An own secret the mesh mints (the authority's password) never needed an issue: it is minted when the node is resolved.
