Bases reach a recipe as build arguments, so the digest was never in the file the builder read
edges from: no build on the mesh recorded what it stood on, and 'build --on', the bases-first
order and the merge follow-up all walked a graph with no edges (novox/hq 04-ISSUES/131). The
builder now reports every base it resolved; the controller records them by artifact path and
reads the newest build's edges from the store, since a recorded manifest carries no build.on.
The mesh's own images declare theirs now, so the refusal ADR 0097 deferred is live.
The builder's own image and the examples take arguments with defaults; make builds
them, not the mesh.
A secrets object with one local name delivered no file. Two requirements could share
a local name. secret recover and the export could not tell two locals apart. The
recipe check missed continued lines and read heredoc bodies as bases. repo:tag@digest
kept the tag in the repository. ask now publishes mandatory, so a tool nothing serves
is said at once rather than after the wait.
The mesh's own images start FROM a public base — the control plane's, the builder's,
the tool runtime's — and refusing those refuses genesis. They declare their bases
next; until then the base is named every build, with the remedy.
build.on takes {arg, image@sha256:…} beside {arg, module, artifact}: the image is
copied into the mesh's registry before the build (ADR 0096) and the recipe reads the
copy from the argument. A FROM or COPY --from naming a registry image the manifest
did not declare is refused before the build, naming it and the remedy; stages,
declared arguments and scratch are not fetches (novox/hq 04-ISSUES/064, ADR 0097).
One name per thing, per the HQ glossary: the module/container/image/binary/repo
becomes mesh-controller, the seat the-controller, and the store+broker pair the
foundation (embedded base bundles, default template and example lock renamed with
their go:embed directives). No behaviour change — a pure vocabulary rename.

A fingerprint written into a recipe names one particular copy of the base — the
copy on whichever machine the person typing it was using. On any other mesh that
copy has never existed, so the build stops on its first line with a message
about an image nobody can look up. Three modules in the catalogue were in
exactly that state, and the line each of them replaced was equally dead.
A module now names the module and artifact instead, and the mesh answers with
what it holds. The builder is still a thing that clones, builds and answers: the
answer travels with the question, because only the mesh knows what it has.
A base the mesh has not built is refused before anything is built, naming which
module has to exist first.
