A sweep for claims overtaken by the last few days. Annotated rather than rewritten, following the pattern already in 0049 -- what changed and why is the useful part, and an accepted record should not quietly become something else. 0057's init section was wrong on all three of its claims. It said the host needs FOUR things from an init; 0061 reduced that to one. It said every machine the mesh targets already has systemd; Alpine does not, and it is the intended first node. It said there is no second init to abstract over; there is now, and the answer is still not an abstraction -- it is a four-line file per system. What survives is the part that was always right: an init is not a dependency in 0041's sense, because it is not installed, it is what the machine already is. 0048 named Docker as the container runtime. It is now docker or podman, detected rather than chosen -- because adoption keeps what a machine already has, so naming one contradicted a rule already decided. That row is the only one of the five that names two, and the record now says why. 0060 claimed the bundle is portable across operating systems. Its mechanism is; its contents are not -- package names, unit names, service names all differ, so an Arch host embeds an Arch bundle. That was my error, and it is the exact confusion behind the question that found it. The design layer had the same drift: 07 and 09 said "Docker" where they meant a container runtime, 09 said systemd restarts the host after an upgrade when the launcher does, and both install snippets assumed Arch. They now show Alpine and Arch side by side, which makes the point better than prose did -- step 1 differs per system, step 2 never does. Checked and NOT changed: 0047's "the vocabulary grows by one shape" is a claim about the rate, not the count, and is still true. 0037 lists docker among tools the host manages, which it does. 0041 says nothing about either.
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 ADR 0017 is superseded by ADR 0044: there is no domain module to group into, so there is no domain list to settle.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.
