mesh/delivery delivered
The Go toolchain the repository check runs in carries no bash, so the scripts' syntax
check failed there on a missing interpreter, not a broken script.

mesh/delivery superseded: a newer head of the same pull request
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.

jochen 4f6cbd2197 Follow bar values so a dead watch speaks, date them by their reading, and widen the path check (hq ADR 0260)
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.

jochen 76b63744e6 Carry the power draw to the bar over the bus, not through a file (hq ADR 0260)
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.

jochen e1b7fcd8c9 Count each processor package once, never read a sleeping card, and give no reading for a reset counter (hq ADR 0255)
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.

jochen 0040c008b5 Let the bar render blocks other modules contribute, and give it the battery and power draw from the power module (hq ADR 0255)
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.
