Removing a rule from the operator's own home changes what their sessions
obey as surely as placing one: an agent could remove the rule that
constrains it (hq issue 340).

On the nodes where the agent runs as the operator, the home scope wrote the
operator's own ~/.claude, whose rules and skills load in every session, and
any node's tool could be addressed from another (hq issue 340). Take it
only for the serving node, where its home is an agent account's own; never
place a bus item in the operator's home. Ignore the built binary.
Instructions, output styles, skills, commands and subagents for every node
or some reach every session as the mesh's own word, and the tools cannot
tell an agent from the operator; the operator decided they are set at the
terminal until a surface of their own updates them (hq issue 340). They
are settings keys, each text a list of lines; the home scope stays free.

A byte-order mark, a flow mapping or a merged key hid a key the line scan
looked for, and @path read any file into every session the item reached
(hq issue 340 review).

The tool runner is not told who called, so a hook, a managed setting, a
permission rule or a tool server registered through these tools could come
from an agent confined on another node and run as the operator there
(hq issue 340). They are set at the controller's terminal now; a skill,
subagent or command that runs something by itself is refused too, kept
hooks and settings are never rendered, and claude_code_registrations
lists what is registered and by which node.
On the build node, in UTC, the fixture's creation time was the fake clock's own instant, so the test
could not tell the list's time from the clock's. A day and a half earlier is apart from it everywhere.
The home server's pool holds the operator's media library, and no mesh tool could say whether it is
healthy, how full it is, when it was last scrubbed or what snapshots exist; the only way was a login.
This module reads all of it with fixed zfs and zpool commands (list, get, status, iostat, events,
history) and has one act, zfs_snapshot, which only adds a snapshot: refused for an unknown dataset, a
name outside [A-Za-z0-9._-], an existing snapshot or no why; run as sudo -n zfs snapshot -- ds@name;
answered from zfs list afterwards, with any other snapshot that came or went meanwhile; recorded as the
event snapshot.taken. No destroy, rollback, set or send exists, and a test holds every command to its
verb.
Health (ADR 0240): zfs_health on the watch process, unhealthy for a pool not ONLINE, device or data
errors, a pool past 90 % full or no ZFS at all; past 80 % and a scrub older than 35 days are warnings.
Beside it, the event follower (zpool events -f, as root) keeps ZFS's errors in its journal past a
reboot and is judged by its unit, the check the module does not run itself. No seat (ADR 0121), no
package: ZFS is the machine's.
execute runs any command as the operator account, which can become root
without a person. The operator withholds it on the control-node until a
call needs a person's approval (hq ADR 0268); the other machines keep it
for now. The setting execute (serve by default) is written into a
root-owned file the tools bundle reads at start, and anything but serve
withholds the verb, so the machine's runtime does not offer it.

A reader given a privilege WITH GRANT OPTION that passed it on made the
plain revoke fail with dependent privileges exist; the pass still listed the
table as revoked and logged it every minute. The pass now retries such a
change with CASCADE, which reaches only grants that came from the reader,
reads the grants back, reports as revoked only what is gone, and says what
is still held and why when anything is.
A setting changed through mesh-controller.settings rewrote dunstrc, but the
running dunst kept the old font and width until the next login. Declare the
package's dunst.service in the account's manager, without a state, with
reload-on the configuration, so the node-engine runs its ExecReload
(dunstctl reload) and what is on screen stays. Add dunst_reload to do the
same on demand and say the font and width the files set.

A superuser's REVOKE acts as the table owner, so a grant to the reader made
by a role holding GRANT OPTION survived it while the report said revoked.
Each grant is now revoked under SET ROLE to its grantor, the grants are read
back, and anything still held is reported as a failure. The role was
altered every minute with its password in the statement, which a server
logging DDL would record and which could collide with a first query; it is
now altered only when an attribute, a setting or the password has drifted,
one ensure at a time. SECURITY DEFINER functions and views the reader may
use reach data without a grant on it, so every pass lists them. The README
says the name filter is a backstop and that the read-only session default
can be turned off by a statement.

mesh_store_reader held pg_read_all_data, so every caller of mesh-store.query
and postgres_query could read every column the store holds: the signing key
nodes trust, sealed secrets, password hashes. The reader now holds no role;
each minute, on every database, its memberships are revoked and its grants
brought to what the consumer's contribution lists under readable, minus any
column or table whose name says it holds a secret. Before a statement runs,
the reader's own session is asked which secret columns it can read and the
statement is refused if any; a statement naming a known secret table is
refused before it is sent.

The review of #136 found a share could squash every client to root, be
judged at a symlink's name rather than its folder, sit inside or above a
backup repository deeper than one level, export an unmounted dataset's
empty folder, go to every address in the private network's range, and
stay exported after the module left. Each is now refused or closed, with
a test that reproduced it first:
- a folder owned by uid or gid 0 is refused;
- the path is resolved through symlinks and every check runs on the real
folder, which the export line names;
- a share inside a backup repository (any parent) or holding one within
four levels is refused, and a look cut short by its bound refuses;
- every line carries mp, or mp=<its filesystem's mount point>;
- a share goes only to the nodes this machine's grants setting names and
whose mounts module wants it on the bus, at the lower access, at the
roster's address inside the range; nothing without wants;
- the process is declared before its config, so on unassignment it finds
the config gone, removes its export file and lets the shares go;
- confirm accepts the seat's string "true".

A machine mounts what its assignment names: a node's share from the
provision nfs-share, whose path it reads from nfs-server's state on the
bus, and occasional sources (an SMB device, a disk) whose absence is a
state, not a fault. apply writes and arms the unit pairs as root; watch
tries each source and judges the health; the operator's fstab lines are
taken over only through adopt, on their word, once the replacement is
armed. SMB logins are an outside party's secret, given with secret accept.

The record kept only the intent, so a failed unlink read as removed; each
link now gets a synced intent and outcome line, and the outcome is the
module's link.removal event so it is not only a file on one machine.
The put-back hint no longer advises a symlink, an aliased directory is
read once, a machine-wide removal from user scope is said, and the state
directory names no owner a machine without an account cannot resolve.

systemctl disable leaves a link whose unit file is gone, and the manager
keeps asking for the unit. The verb removes only such links in the
account's or the machine's own configuration, on the person's word, and
records each with its reason before removing it (hq issue 332).
systemctl expands *, ? and [ in a unit argument, so reset-failed or stop
of "*" would have acted on every unit. wanted-by called a link dangling on
any stat error, followed a linked .wants anywhere, and missed most of the
manager's load path; it now says each of these, and says nothing names a
unit only of the directories it searched.

So a leftover unit's trigger is found and its failed record cleared

dependencies and the enable links naming the unit, saying which dangle.
The laptop's 242 DPI panel shows Inter 10 at less than half the workstation's size. The

The SDK hands the current value over before Watch returns, and the follower had no
entry for it yet, so the first value was dropped. A silent watch is now told from an
expired key and watched again rather than polled, each write takes its own temporary
file, drop-in directories are no module's, and an entry added to the path check's lists
is refused unless its line says why.
A watch that died left the block silent, a removed block kept its value, and a value
frozen at its source looked fresh because its file was new. The follower now rereads a
silent value and says so, drops removed blocks, and dates each file by the reading's
own time. The path check takes /etc and /usr/local/lib in, ignores what a container sees
inside itself, and lists the five findings standing today, which may only go.
Modules talk over the bus. The power module's bundle puts each fresh reading of its own
sampler in its state draw, keyed by the machine; the bar's block shows that state, which
the bar's bundle watches under the read the mesh grants it. A new catalogue check refuses
a module naming another module's path under /run or /var/lib.
Intel shows some packages twice (MSR and MMIO), an AMD card's sensors wake it, and a
counter reset after resume read as thousands of watts. The loop's cadence and the bar
script's staleness are now tested, and the sampler running on every machine is said.
The bar left the battery out because it belongs to whoever knows the hardware, and had
no way to take it back in. i3status-rust now renders bar-neutral blocks through its
template; the power module contributes the battery where the machine reports one and
the power draw where something measures it, sampling the root-only energy counter as
root and publishing only a rate. The memory block shows what programs hold, the figure
memory-pressure judges by, instead of counting the cache as used.

The third review found the asleep match took only one-word modes, so a SAS drive in STANDBY BY TIMER or
LOW POWER was read as a failed answer and lost its reading.
