The one-line change e0c9219 parked "until there is a certificate" returns — with the
overlay recorded as the registry's transport security and every node's runtime told the
store speaks plain HTTP, a reference under the provider's internal name is one every
machine can pull. References minted at genesis stay loopback and are valid where they
matter, on the machine that made them.

A docker run -v from inside the builder resolves the path on the host: with the
workspace mounted at a different path inside than out, the SDK publish and any
bundle compile mounted an empty directory. Bind it at the same path both sides.

gitea gains the package-registry provision: serves/receives/grants, an admin
own-secret, a postgres-shaped build, and a provisioner that creates a gitea user
per consumer with the mesh-minted password and seals nothing (hq ADR 0048). The
builder takes its registry credential as an own-secret rather than a resolved
provision, because gitea-as-module needs the base to build its provisioner and so
cannot resolve before the base — a cycle the own-secret avoids.

Naming it from the binding was right and arrived too early. The moment the
machine had a name, the builder pushed to <node>.internal:5000 and the runtime
refused it: "http: server gave HTTP response to HTTPS client". The registry
serves plaintext, and anything that is not loopback is required to be HTTPS.
So there are two phases, and this is the first. Before the mesh has a certificate
authority of its own, loopback is the only trusted path that is honest — it is
trusted because it cannot leave the machine, not because anyone checked
anything. The mesh-reachable name belongs to the second phase, with TLS from the
mesh's own CA, and the binding expression returns then.
Not a revert of the reasoning: novox/hq issue 048 stays open and this is why. The
same one-line change lands again once a certificate module is running.

The builder's environment said MESH_REGISTRY=127.0.0.1:${bound:artifact-store:port}
— the port taken from the binding, the host pinned to loopback. So every artifact
the mesh builds was recorded under an address that means something only on the
machine holding the registry, and nothing else in the mesh could resolve it.
Loopback is correct for exactly one reader and the builder is not special: it
already requires artifact-store, and the binding states where the provider is on
the private network. It now uses both halves of what it was given.
Invisible with one machine, which is the only shape this had been proven in. The
registry module declares that every machine pulls from it and opens its port to
the mesh for that reason, so the reference it is handed has to be one a second
machine can use.

Its account is scoped from what it emits and consumes, and it declared neither —
which is why asking for a generic module account produced one that authenticated
and could do nothing, with the refusal surfacing a layer away as a permissions
error against a queue.
Declaring the announcement is not documentation here. It is what the permission
is derived from.

The code that turns a repository into artifacts already existed and is deliberately
something a machine runs as an ordinary module rather than something the control
plane does. There was no module for it, so it could never be placed and never ran —
which is why nothing in the catalogue could be produced.
It asks for a container runtime because it builds images, requires the artifact
store because it publishes into it, and claims one per machine. Its credential
folder is mounted rather than the file, since a file mount keeps pointing at the
old contents after the mesh writes new ones.
The store is reached on the machine's own loopback: the address in a binding is
where a machine sits on the private network, and the store has to be co-located
anyway because runtimes refuse a plain-HTTP registry anywhere else.
