Every module built from a repository was rebuilt for a change to any of them: one merge in this
repository meant twenty-six builds, which is what exhausted a public registry's pull limit. The
forge lists the files a merge changed and the event carries them, from the watcher and from the
merge tool alike; a merge that changed more files than were asked for says so, and the mesh then
treats the whole repository as changed rather than guessing.
The merge tool emitted at the instant it acted; a merge made in the forge's own
pages or over its API emitted nothing, and the mesh went on believing every module
current with its source (novox/hq 04-ISSUES/131). Merged pull requests are now
watched the way repositories are: what the forge holds, asked for on a tick,
announced once, with the merge commit and the clone URL a build needs. What has
been announced is kept beside the module's state, so a restart does not announce
the whole history again, and a first tick with no record announces nothing.
Every module named its events the way the old bus spelled a routing key —
`module.<module>.<verb>`. Design 29 says a module names an event locally and the
mesh works out where it lands, so all 37 were stale against a rule already
decided. On the new bus that derives into a namespace belonging to a module
called "module", so no cross-module subscription in the mesh matched anything:
nothing failed, nothing reacted (novox/hq 04-ISSUES/127).
36 manifests converted, and 43 files of module code with them. The code mattered
as much as the manifests: the runtime builds the subject from what `emit()` is
handed, so a converted manifest with unconverted code would have had the
permission and the subject disagree.
Three things the new check found on the way:
- `photos` emitted an event its manifest never declared, which the new bus refuses
outright. Declared.
- `showcase` waited for an event nothing emits, so its demo could never be
triggered — only `showcase` may publish under its own name. It emits both halves
now.
- `distribution` declared an event named after a different module. It emits
`image.pushed` under its own name. An event about a *role* belongs on the seat,
where the name outlives whoever holds it, but the sdk has no way to publish on a
seat yet, so that stays recorded rather than declared.
The audit logger's "everything" pattern is `**` rather than the old bus's `#`.
The runtime beside the forge served 0 tools: GiteaClient.fromEnv required a token
(settings or MESH_GITEA_TOKEN), nobody had one to give — the mesh raised the forge —
and putting one in settings would store a secret in plaintext in the inventory. So
the fifteen tools registered nothing and the watcher logged "not watching".
What the mesh does deliver is the admin account: a login the manifest names and a
password the vault minted and the host unsealed into a file (ADR 0086). That is
enough to mint a token, so the module does (hq issue 100, the forge's tools):
POST /users/{admin}/tokens over basic auth, scoped to write:repository and
write:issue — the least the tools and the repo watcher need — kept at 0600 in the
module's own state (/var/lib/mesh/gitea/state, a new directory resource the runtime
mounts writable), read back on the next start, and minted afresh when the forge
answers 401 to it or the kept file is gone. A forge whose data came from the
predecessor has no mesh-admin: that is reported in plain words on every poll until
it clears, once per reason, not crash-looped. A configured token still wins and is
never minted over.
The mint happens on the first call, not at registration: a contributor is
synchronous, and a forge not yet answering must not keep the runtime from serving.
One source per kept file in a process, or the watcher and the tools would each
renew on a 401 and drop the other's token by name.
Git hosting. 15 tools (repos, issues, PRs, labels, api passthrough) moved out
of the shared sdk. Emits repo.created (from a light poll, catching repos born
of git push or the web UI), issue.opened and pull.merged (from the tools at the
moment of the action) — the poll owns repo.created alone so it is never
announced twice. Typechecks; manifest parses.
