An object-store provision, proven against a real store with seven assertions. The finding is worth more than the task: the control plane special-cases nothing. provides, requires, contributes and grants are name-agnostic, so asking for a bucket needed no change to the mesh at all. What was missing was a provider and the last step on the machine — "add an object-store provision" was never mesh work, and the breakdown now says so rather than leaving the next person to rediscover it. Named s3-bucket by 0027: the coupling is to the API, not the product, because swapping one store for another does not break a consumer. A database is the other case and names its engine. Records the assertion a database does not need, because it is the one that will be forgotten when somebody writes the next provider: one store holds every bucket behind one endpoint, so isolation is a policy rather than a property, and a policy granting everything passes every test that only checks a consumer can reach its own bucket.
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 ADR 0009 is superseded by ADR 0009: there is no domain module to group into, so there is no domain list to settle.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.
