022 turned out to have a silent half worth recording: the provider refuses loudly and names the modules, which reads as a decision, while the consuming node does not refuse at all. Three modules wanting one database produce one need, so two of them get no credential file and each starts and fails to authenticate with nothing saying why. 023 is what remained after fixing it. A consumer now gets its own password, in whatever shape its configuration wants, and still cannot connect: the user name is invented by the provisioner and recorded nowhere in the mesh, and the host and port sit in a JSON binding that an application reading KEY=value cannot use. The asymmetry is backwards and the coverage document now says so. The secret is the hard case, because the mesh must not be able to read it, and the secret is the part that arrives. The host and port are ordinary facts the mesh holds in the clear, and they are the ones stuck. Keycloak, Gitea, Mailu and MinIO all parse and resolve and none of them can start. This is what stands between the module set and a running one.
03-DESIGN / 01-to-be
The mesh being built toward. Every statement here traces to a record in
02-DECISIONS/; nothing arrives by drafting.
A document here describes an intention. What currently runs is in
00-as-is/, and the two are never merged — when something ships, the as-is
document is written and this one's status becomes implemented.

settles the list at seven;
connectivityis the first written in full (08) and the other six do not exist yet. The work breakdown says in what order they are needed. Domain grouping outside the core.Not needed. ADR 0009 is superseded by ADR 0009: there is no domain module to group into, so there is no domain list to settle. Relationships are edges, and grouping is a tag and a query.
