Brings #664 (licences_switches carried entries), #665 (mesh-files lists a
place a secret is kept), #666 (provisioner: bounded retiring ask id, a
refused ask said, provisioner_health), #667 (mesh-build-go's step end
rewritten without the taken versions when over the steps state's bound),
#668 (mesh-files find writes the NUL itself). #667's buildstep/step.go and
digestshape_test.go conflict with G's deletion (the step runner moved to
mesh-delivery-sdk/steprun, SD5): G's side is kept; its intent, an answer over
the bound not lost, is G's A-290 (the answer kept as an output object).

Live on novox 2026-11-12: node-files.list of a root-only directory answered
'fork/exec /usr/bin/sudo: invalid argument'. The kernel refuses a program
argument that holds a NUL byte, and listAsRoot's -printf format and
searchBelowAsRoot's ended in a literal \x00 since 5d98bcc0 (2026-10-16), so
no list or search through root ever ran on a node. find writes \0 itself.
The stand-in root in the tests refuses an argument holding a NUL, as exec
does, so every root call is held to it; it found the search's instance.
Builds: design 39 parts §15 and the lead's answer D3 (list through root of a place a secret is kept).
Issue 1409. readTools no longer appends the refusal sentence to list. A row in
TestSecretPlacesAreRefusedByNameBeforeAnyRead holds a link's target in a secret place to the content rule.
S2's match on sudo's English message is left as it is: the root path sets no locale, and sudo's environment
handling decides whether LC_ALL reaches stat.
Builds: design 39 parts D3 (§15), bullets 2 and 4
Issue 1409. A stat through root of a path that is not there answered that the file modes refuse it; it says
it does not exist, so design 39 parts §15's "gone" can be read.
Builds: design 39 parts D3 (§15), bullet 3
Issue 1409. A list of a place the mesh keeps a secret, or of a machine's credential places, at any depth,
answers each entry's name, type, owner, group, mode, size and a link's target held to the content rule,
never content, and says secret-place; a process's environ, mem, fd, map_files, root and cwd stay refused.
Lines touched cite ADR 0394 §7.
Builds: design 39 parts D3 (§15), bullets 2 and 5
mesh-delivery-builder.builder_versions answered no numbered version for any name asked (mesh-sdk go and ts, mesh-host, node-tools, mesh-delivery-builder, mesh-conditions), so every module takes 0.1, the floor §368 gives a module with none published: all 144 manifests (141 from "1", distribution, mesh-provisioner and mesh-provisioner-client from "2", which carries nothing over, §583).
Builds: design 47 G §368, §411, §583, A-46

A member's go.mod names the oldest version a module accepts; the check builds the group's own heads whatever it names. go.sum lines of mesh packages are left out.

Every module that imports mesh-sdk requires its group head; each requires the mesh-contracts seats and clients it
imports, and mesh-contracts/go through the SDK's seat list. The placeholder versions are gone.

A test that slept a fixed time and then asserted what a goroutine, process or
watcher did failed under the checker's load. Each now waits for its positive
evidence (a started baseline, a call counted, a state reached) within 30 s, and
the concurrency-limit tests meet at a barrier instead of overlapping by sleep.

Every directory and archive resource carries `unknown`: move-out for a home folder whose program writes nothing there (the node-engine, delivered in mesh-host #117, moves the rest to ~/.local/state/mesh-moved/<module>/ with a list), module for ~/.ssh and ~/.claude, program elsewhere; `knows` keeps what a program or the operator relies on (powerlevel10k's compiled files, i3's scripts and the asus/g14 drop-ins, dunst's slack rule, betterbird's records, node-env's forge credential, issue 1033). Two shared folders are no longer declared. Each module's README says it. checks/owned holds every manifest to it; checks/sshdir stays while main's merge check runs it (issue 1035). Tests that pin a manifest follow the new key only. Reviewed in three rounds.
