A number identifies a record, and two were given 127 on 2026-09-27. The one
three documents and three source files cite by number keeps it; the other
becomes 149, says so in its own heading, and its two inbound references are
repointed.
It is also resolved: an empty declaration is sent carrying owns_nothing rather
than skipped, and the host refuses an empty body that does not carry it, so
emptiness cannot be read as a truncated declaration.
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.
