Say every walk a verb keeps, and clear a stop from a walk that walks again
mesh/merge-gate pass: builds build-agent, mesh-controller → ace, g14, novox, shanks; no bus step; every machine composes with the change as it did without …
mesh/repo-check pass: its merge-check.sh passed
mesh/delivery delivered

cancel, clear and rebuild kept a walk's end or restart without saying it, as plans stop, retry and
release-backlog did before them. The controller's run now says every save a verb makes on the bus, so the
next verb cannot lose a mark the same way. A stop is cleared when a walk is resumed, so one that fails again
ends failed and the search for its merge runs (review 21, ADR 0308, issue 532).
