AnswerSeat checks a call's caller against the seat's definition its caller
reads from the seat list it follows (A-186). The bus module's keeper hands
it the mesh-broker definition its seat list holds once heard; mesh-recovery,
which followed none, follows one over its connection and an event hub, read
again once its events are live, and its manifest and its process invoke
seat-definitions and consume the list's two events. Its whole test answers
the seat list.

The join's importers name the delivery repository's moved contracts and sdk
(MV1), node-tools' tests use mesh-sdk's gate, the duplicate node-engine claim
rule of the reader release gives way to G's, and the assigner names its first
watched branch, never a constant. The seat holders' AnswerSeat callers are
area 6's.

The keeper follows meshcatalogclient's branch follower and the seat list on its views reader, and plans again at each
move of a branch's view, the registrations or the seat list. Each local name is planned from the first of the module's
watched branches in its registration's order; another branch asking it with other settings is said drifted, naming
the branch. A module of the new form whose resolved seat definition has a verb or an event gets its sent store; one
including only parts, and a foundation part, none. A module in no watched branch's newest revision loses its plans
key, its entries orphans. The sum of the caps counts the old sections the entries declare. The manifest consumes the
catalog half's and the seat list's events and invokes their verbs; manifest-accepted and indexer_bus_state go.

The delivery repository's contracts and SDK live under modules/ as
mesh-delivery-contracts and mesh-delivery-sdk, their Go module paths
renamed to match the folders (the TypeScript names already did), and
every importer in mesh-delivery, mesh-catalog, mesh-host, mesh-tools
and mesh-sdk follows in the same group: a design as it should be, one
path per module, checked by the group's check building every importer.

An unprotected snapshot is received through snapshot-get into
incoming/<request>, refused before the first chunk past the cap, checked
against its digest before any aside, and restored by the module; a
protected one is verified, the running data set aside and restored in
place by the keeper, waited on by snapshot-restored within
snapshot-restore-wait-minutes, cancelled at the bound. The bus module
sends its chunks with mesh-sdk's form.

The take and restore of one stream is shared code in mesh-sdk; the bus module's keeper, its
nightly dump and its tools import it from there and keep no copy.

grantedBy is dropped: any caller of snapshot-get gets the chunks, a protected snapshot never.
The chunks are a transfer on the core bus, published with a core publish and kept on no stream.

snapshot-get, snapshot-restore, snapshot-restore-cancel and snapshot-remove are answered by
the keeper's process with the proved caller; it publishes snapshot-get's chunks and hears
their acks on its own subscription, and acts at once with no hand-over through requests
(the record of a running restore is written before it runs). The tools bundle keeps its
tools, nats_snapshots among them. The protected refusal and the whole test's case (send,
restore in place, removal) stay.

Reverts bbd9f638, c2e017a4 and b6884796; cmd/mesh-nats-snapshot/restore.go is as before them. The manifest test
asserts the claim serves only the reading verbs and the keeper's state is asked, requests, spent.

Verbs snapshot-kept and restore-kept (with aside-only and discard-aside) on the seat mesh-broker, handed to the

Held.binding is the entry's plan binding, the value its created and recreated
carry, present when the bus holds the entry's objects and absent on one it does
not (waiting, refused). Table rows in the reading verbs' test: the binding of a
held entry equals the one its created carries; a waiting entry has none.

A lost event between a shared stream and a module's consumer could not be located: no tool read a consumer's delivered and acknowledged sequence or a stream's messages for one subject. nats_consumer reads from the monitoring document; nats_stream_messages asks STREAM.MSG.GET on the module's own credential, newest first and bounded.

nats_keeper_health found the keeper's consumer novox_nats_keeper in /jsz, but the read it shares with the
broker verbs asked /jsz?accounts=1&streams=1&config=1, without consumers=1, so keeperPending always read -1
and the keeper was "unhealthy: what waits on its consumer cannot be read from the bus's monitoring" for
ever (2026-11-08, issue 1966).

Kind: short package names (builds, sshkeys, forgemsg, backupgood,
diskreadings, grantsstate, busgrants) in `packages`, which the indexer's
judge refuses by design 32's rule (a Go package is named by its go.mod's
module path). This held mesh-delivery-gate, the build modules, mounts and
restic. Each key is now the import path the module's code uses, with its
series kept; the manifest tests read the new keys, and the host/machine-name
word tests in mounts, nfs-server, mesh-build-node and mesh-delivery-gate
look past the path's `git.novox.be/novox/` prefix.
Quick fix: only the gate's manifest. Thorough fix (chosen): all 15, since
the same refusal holds each. Follow-up for the checker: the candidate
verdict lets such a name through (J7(3)), so the merge check did not stop it.

Review round 2 of the registry milestone:
- security F2: the spend record leaves requests, which the tools write as the tool runner's account, for state spent,
named in the keeper's bus.state and declared read-only (the lead's 18:1x ruling: the tools read it, never write);
nats_requests lists the warrants spent from it;
- running F1: the fill pass also runs while the manifest-accepted consumer is bound again;
- health note 3: an event said on the seat's subject and refused by its history is kept with its one id and said again
on the history alone, never again with a new id;
- seams note 3, health note 4: words unsaid with a status that cannot be written raise the keeper's own condition
status-unwritten, cleared when it is written; the health names what a restart would lose.

Review round 1 of the registry milestone (design 25 § 12.2, § 12.3, § 12.7):
- the fill pass runs from the start, while the first view is asked;
- recreate and drop wake on the operator channel's decided on the keeper's durable consumer, never a minute's tick;
- a warrant is spent by compare-and-set (acted.<ask id> in requests) before anything is deleted; a second request on it
is refused; a request whose ask ended unanswered is ended, said; the ask is raised before the request is handed;
- created is marked only once said; an event or a condition the bus did not take is kept, named by the health and
said again at the next fill pass with its one id, on the subjects left (the double publish);
- the health judges the first view past its bound and never skips an unread consumer backlog;
- an unrecordable hand act is said on the request; nats_requests reads what waits, what ended and each warrant spent,
and drops a waiting request by hand; a tool waits for its request's end on one watch of requests;
- the whole-module test reads the warrant from the router's record under a process connection.

mesh-sdk holds neither asks nor asker, nor the vault's answer types, and mesh-delivery's
sdk/views is mesh-sdk's go/views (a1-progress.md, the rewrite map for the join): thirteen
modules switch to the operatorchannel contract and client, mesh-sdk's channel package and
meshvault, with go.mod requiring each at the group pin (nats: meshbroker too). The gate
holds the checks mesh-sdk dropped (an ask's id is its key's asking, at least one option),
with a row that fails without them; claude-code refuses a router record whose times do
not parse, as its JSON decode did, with a row.

list, show and orphans answer meshbroker.ListAnswer, Held and OrphansAnswer; check answers CheckAnswer with each
differing entry's settings asked and held by stream and whether the difference only grows; show takes the contract's
local-name. Built against mesh-contracts' seats/meshbroker module in the workspace; the group pin adds its require.

The lead's ruling of 13:0x (registry milestone): mesh-broker's events are mesh.seat.mesh-broker.event.<event> on the
shared events stream like every seat's, and the bus module's own 30-day stream keeps each for its history tool.
