Pins mesh-sdk fix/1921-every-failure-r, whose check ask no longer stops a level at its first failing test step. A captured fixture with a failing test in each of two packages proves the build module's test step names both.

The runtime refuses a state field whose name ends in secret, so no bus-account hash could be written on novox. The test state now applies the same check.

The controller hands each process account of a core or moved module with origin issued (ADR 0436 §2); the vault took
only broker and provisioner-broker, refused these and never hashed them. Owed hashes are now said once per pass, and
account_hash says who asked when it refuses too (review round 1).
Issue: 1945
The controller still mints each covered account and hands it to the vault (ADR 0374); ADR 0547 clause 9 has the vault
write the bcrypt hash of what it holds into its own state, readable by the grants part, and say account-hashed. It
hashes on keep, at start every held account with no key of its generation, and again by hand (account_hash); a refused
write is owed and written at the next pass. secret_own says per bus account whether this generation's hash is written.

The review found a cut read took an arbitrary 1000 keys, so the newest steps could be missing. A step id is
base-36 milliseconds plus random digits, so its string order is its start order; the newest max(limit*4, 100)
keys are read now, 1000 at most. The toolchains read logs when it drops keys past its cap.
On a steps state of 1164 keys / 20 MB (mesh-build-node: 10034 keys) the read tools listed every key and
then read each value one round trip at a time, filtering by node only after the Get, so they timed out
at 30 s. Now the keys are filtered by the node's prefix before any Get, the values are read 16 at a
time, at most 1000 a call (the answer says it was cut), and one log line gives rows read and time.
build_*_toolchains reads its values the same parallel way. The kind: a read tool that reads a whole
state key by key; every read tool of the three modules is covered.

The operator, 2026-10-25 22:56: "run the check locally only, but not as a gate, it loses us too much time". Tonight each
merge ask waited 3-7 minutes for mesh/check, and every merge into main refused the next approved merge for a check judged
on the trunk before (mesh-delivery#52). Both settings default to true, so nothing changes until the operator sets them.
False: the gate makes a reviewed pull request ready and asks its Approve with no verdict, a trunk's move puts nothing out
of date, a verdict is kept and shown, and a group still merges in one pass; the merge tool merges a head the Approve
names whatever its mesh/check says. delivery_status and show say the mode.
mesh-delivery#51 merged 21:43:11 and the gate read the open list at 21:43:14, before the forge's merged event: taken as
learnt late, it moved no trunk and its group's finish left it out of source.main, so the checker kept judging every
mesh-delivery head on 73be3df. A late merge within replayLate of its landing is now taken as heard as it happened, and
one a gate before this left is written at the catch-up of the start (never backwards).

The node-engine refused mesh-build-go's files as not named as filled 32 s before
its want arrived, and nothing filled them after the apply that named them: the
runtime crash-looped on its missing broker credential. The client now fills
every module again when the node-engine touches its write socket after such an
apply (mesh-host fix/provisioner-retries-on-declaration), says each retry and
each refusal it waits on, and asks the vault again at once for a refused secret
when that wake or the module's own assignment may have ended the refusal.

Without it in Kept, stdio.KeptState refuses the state before the bus (mesh-sdk go/keeps.go
refusedUnannounced), so the pause could be neither read nor written.
mesh-build-go's steps bucket filled to the bus's 64 MiB cap (27,370 keys, none ever removed) and
refused the end of a passed check, so the check read failed; mesh-build-node's (17.8 MB) and
mesh-build-image's grow the same way. A step's key is per step: its reader reads its end within
the step's bound, and a check's verdict is kept by the checker, so two days is ample. The node's
pause key lived in the same bucket and would have ended by itself; it moves to a pauses state
without an age (mesh-sdk fix/steps-bucket-ages, Puller.PausePut). No node is paused today, so
nothing is carried over.

A pull request found merged only by its absence from the open list went through PullMerged, which moved every
other open delivery of its repository back to an old trunk (ready ones to proposed, composed checks out of
date), dated the merge now, and so let a later catch-up write the old commit into source.main. pullMerged now
takes such a merge as late: its own delivery is merged and its group closed, no other trunk moves, its time is
the forge's or none, and LearntLate keeps it out of source.main in finish, settleForgeMerges and the catch-up.
The gitea tool gitea_commit_statuses now answers the pull request's merged_at, and the gate reads a gone pull
request by its number alone, so a deleted branch does not fail the read.
The conditions the gate now says would otherwise be wrong three ways:
- A pull request closed or merged on the forge with no event heard stayed ready here for days (de-spiegel #4,
closed 2026-10-17) and would raise a condition. After a complete read of the open list (shorter than the
forge tool's 1000), each delivery not final whose pull request is missing is read from the forge and taken as
its close or merge; a merge learnt so does not move source.main, as it is undated and could move it back.
- A line that comes due on the clock (a state's bound, the author's bound, an answered refusal, an
out-of-date refusal turning urgent after 10 minutes) waited for an unrelated event. The gate now asks a look
at the earliest such time.
- After a restart the heads waiting on the forge start their bound again, so their conditions were cleared and
raised again later. A condition is cleared only once the open list was read since start, and not while the
forge still shows its head open and waiting.
Also: an empty path list ranks with a truncated one in the merge order, and a seat that keeps refusing
conditions is retried on the clock 10 looks in a row, then at events only, said once in the log.
Met again 2026-10-25: group fix/puller-wakes-on-capacity was merged half. Three causes in the gate:
- The next member's turn compared the group's state with "delivering", a word GroupState no longer says
since release 6 renamed it "merging" (ready.go groupTurnToMerge). Once the first member's merge was heard
from the forge the group read merging, and the second member waited for ever. Group states are now named
constants, the turn goes on in ready and merging (groupMayMerge), and a test holds every word to it.
- Members merged in id order, so mesh-catalog went before the mesh-sdk commit it pins. membersOf now orders
by mergeRank: mesh-sdk first, then members that change no go.mod or go.sum, then those that do.
- No condition was raised: the controller's self-check that read `stalled` went with release 6
(mesh-controller dc456d56). The gate now says its stalled lines as conditions itself on the
operator-channel seat (ADR 0437 §9) after every look, clears those listed no more, and keeps which it
raised in its new bucket conditions. A held group's line says "half merged" when a member merged.
A pass held for a required status no longer retries on a timer: the status turning success is the event
that asks the merge again.
g14's Go builder sat idle at capacity 2 because nothing woke its parked
puller. mesh-build-go, mesh-build-node and mesh-build-image now pin mesh-sdk
b9911dc1, whose puller watches the config value capacity as mesh-config
resolved it and wakes on each change, and hand it that watch.

Resetting Nextcloud's brute-force record for the docker gateway cleared it for
every client behind that address: someone guessing passwords could drive the
throttle to 429 and have the module's poll wipe it. A throttle is no evidence
the password is wrong, so a 429 is now backed off only, and the back-off
outlasts the throttle. The account's existence is read from user:info's exit
status, since user:list pages.
occ's user:info says 'user not found' on stdout with an empty stderr, so the
error read as 'occ produced no output' and mesh-admin was never made on novox:
occ now says stderr and stdout both, and existence is read from user:list.
The repair could reset whatever account the user setting names, the
operator's included, and the 'admin' fallback is a hand-made install's human
administrator: only mesh-admin is repaired now, and it is the default. The
shares poll needs no admin rights, so the account gets no group. After a
repair the throttle of the caller's address is reset, and a failing repair
reaches the back-off's one loud line with occ's message.
Right after the delivery the first answer may be Nextcloud's 429, not a 401;
without a repair then the account would never be made and the back-off would
wait out a throttle that cannot end.
The image creates NEXTCLOUD_ADMIN_USER only on a fresh install. novox's
instance was installed before the mesh adopted it, so mesh-admin was never
created there, and the shares poll asked Nextcloud every minute with a login
that cannot pass: 401, then Nextcloud's brute-force throttle (429), which
also held the backup before a delivery.
On a refused login the client now adds the account through occ (admin
group), or sets its password to the module's own secret, passing it by
OC_PASS so it is on no argv, and asks once more. A refusal that stays is
said once and the poll backs off from 5 minutes to an hour instead of nine
lines of XML every minute. An empty setting no longer becomes an empty name.

An indented log line of another running test that held 'panic:' won over the
real timeout panic, since the lines were trimmed before matching. Go prints
the runtime's lines at column 0; a test's log is indented.
mesh-controller's try was worded 'PASS' again because the race detector
reported after the tests passed and the program exited 66. The cause is now
the race: its access, the frame that made it and where its goroutine was
created, instead of PASS or testing's generic 'race detected during execution
of test'. Tests from captured go test -race -json (1901/AC4).
A try of mesh-controller kept 'PASS' as its only failure: the package's test
program stopped after printing PASS and the package-level failure took its
first line. Now a failure that is not one test's assertion names the tests that
were running and carries the panic line (a timeout's with its running tests),
a signal or fatal error line, a build's first error, or words saying the
program exited during which tests or after they passed; go test's summary lines
are never kept. Tests from captured go test -json of eight real failures
(1901/AC4).

Release 6 deletes the plans: the walk half of the holder, the controller port, the carry-over of the former module and the verbs times, what-if, release, stop and retire-history go; the table holds proposed, ready, rejected, merged, held and closed; the delivery's status and view name the source revision the merge moved.
