novox/hq ADR 0118: the prefix is the reservation rule, so a module
declaring any mesh-* name is refused and there is no reserved-names list to
drift. Ten seats renamed in the table, the manifests that claim them, the
controller's own shipped manifests, and the tests.
Not the migration 0118 expected: a holding is derived at resolution from
manifests and never stored, so nothing recorded points at an old name. A
kept rename table tells a manifest written against one what it became —
kept rather than retired, because a module lives in its own repository and
may be registered long after the catalogue stopped using it.
**A seat is not the interface it delivers.** The git seat became mesh-git
and the git provision did not; likewise the package registry. A blanket
replace renamed both, and the failure read "the package registry is served
on <nil>", which does not say "you renamed an interface". A test now pins
every seat against what it delivers, and that neither name is also the
other.
The manifest carries seats and uses; registration refuses a mesh-* name, a
duplicate declarer, an undeclared uses or claim, a seat with no protocol, a
scope mismatch, and a holder that does not answer what its seat promises.
The parser stops judging unknown claim names, because it cannot: another
module may declare that seat, and one manifest cannot tell. The test that
encoded the old rule is rewritten to assert the refusal at registration, and
a new one pins the case the parser could not have distinguished.
Tools are declared for the first time, under their own key — serves already
means a provision's facts.
The bus is the only broker (novox/hq ADR 0117): messaging is subjects on it,
scoped by a module's own emits/consumes, not a server handed out as a
provision. So the seat joins mesh-controller and the-catalogue in delivering
no interface. Full suite green.
Implements novox/hq ADR 0110 and 0111.
The seat set lives in internal/catalogue/seats.go: fourteen seats, each with a scope, what occupying
it delivers, and the record that made it one. A test asserts the count and a decision per entry, so
changing the set means finding the argument, as the host's vocabulary test does. The first set is
every seat already claimed — including the-private-network, which the network module claims from a
manifest composed in this repository's code, not from any module.json — plus npm-package-registry
(ADR 0109) and git (ADR 0111). A test parses every catalogue manifest and this repository's own and
fails on any refused claim, so closing the set refuses nothing in use.
ParseManifest now refuses a claim on a seat the mesh does not define, a seat claimed at another
scope, and a delivering seat claimed by a module that does not provide what it delivers. A
malformed claim is refused once, for being malformed.
Resolution: among several providers of a mesh provision, a pin still wins; then the holder of the
seat that delivers it; then the only provider; otherwise refused as before. ADR 0009's "never
guessed" holds — the seat is the choice made once, mesh-wide, rather than a pin per consumer node.
A provider now carries the module it came from, because a provider is a (node, module) pair and the
pair is what tells a holder from a neighbour on the same machine.
The planner's second pass is now given the first pass's holdings. Without them, a node consuming a
seat-delivered provision was refused there, and a refused node's own claims dropped out of what the
mesh holds — letting a second holder of one of its seats pass unrefused.
`seats [--json]` lists every seat, what it delivers, and each holder, derived from assignments
every time and never stored. Unheld seats are listed. A stored claim outside the set — possible
for a manifest registered before the set closed, since stored manifests are not re-validated — is
shown rather than hidden.
`build --self <owner>/<repo>` builds from a repository on the git seat's holder. The clone URL is
composed at build time from the holder's node and what it serves for git; the recorded source is the
path and the seat (migration 0032), never an address, so a moved forge changes nothing recorded.
Nobody holding the seat refuses self-hosted builds and says so; external URLs are unchanged. An
address passed with --self is refused rather than recorded as a path.
Replaces three foundation tests that defended the builder's carried package binding. The catalogue
removed that binding when the builder began requiring the registry through a real grant, so the
tests were already failing on main; they now assert the builder requires what the npm seat delivers
and carries no copy of its own, and that the forge holds the npm and git seats.
Verified: go vet clean; the whole suite passes against a throwaway Postgres (make postgres), the new
inventory tests included; gofmt clean apart from cmd/mesh-builder/stdout_test.go, which fails on
main too.
