`delivery check` runs as a command of its own, where no serving connection exists, so a recheck said its siblings could not be learned ("this controller is not on the bus") and mesh-host#114 was judged without its sibling. groupsAsked now asks through onTheBus, which lends the serving connection or dials one, as the hand-act log does. TestTheRecheckVerbAsksMeshDeliveryOnABusOfItsOwn drives the verb against a real responder.

A recheck rebuilds the pull request without its head branch name, so the sibling lookup found no group and said nothing: mesh-host#114's recheck was judged without its sibling. With no branch name, the group is the one whose member_details hold the pull request; an older mesh-delivery says the siblings could not be learned. TestReplay867Recheck replays it.

A mesh-host change and a mesh-controller change that need each other could not both pass their own checks: each read the other at its base. The check now asks mesh-delivery for the group's open siblings into a base of the same name, reads each at its head merged onto its base, builds the judge from a controller sibling's merge in the isolated judge environment keyed on its inputs, and names the siblings in the verdict. With no answer from mesh-delivery the verdict says it could not learn them; a pull request with no sibling is checked as before. TestReplay867 replays the failure.

ADR 0380 §1 says the message names the module and the machine it is
for; the words named no machine at the terminal and only the desk's
machine at the desk. The headline now ends "on <node>" and the tell
carries "subject": <node> in both cases.
Also covers two gaps review round 2 flagged: a tell failure other
than ErrNothingServes/ErrGrantRefused surfaces and raises no
condition, and the terminal's hand act now names who asked (not just
where), extracted into terminalGiveHandAct so it is testable on its
own.
ADR 0380: giving a module's own secret now asks the operator channel's
tell over the bus, naming the secret, where, when and who asked, and
raises no secret-given condition. Until nothing serves tell yet, or the
controller's grant is refused (link.ErrNothingServes / the new
link.ErrGrantRefused), the condition is raised exactly as before, so the
change composes whichever side of issue 797 merges first. A successful
tell also retires every open secret-given condition. The terminal's own
secret accept now records a hand act too, as the desk path already did.
The controller's bus grant for operator-channel.tell is added to the
composed config (golden fixture updated).
Reverts 45b6c347, which kept nothing of such a message and raised an aged-out
condition: that departed from an accepted decision on a lead's word alone. The
concern behind it (the record keeps the subject, with no age) is its own issue.
Under a module's own record (its manifest's, or its irreplaceable data's), every
move waited for a person's push, even one that only changed a tools bundle: the
database server stayed behind on ace on 2026-10-15 although its walk said it
recreated none of its containers. ADR 0377 lets such a move roll out.
A move is judged per machine against the build that machine was last sent: it
goes when no container, mounted file, data path, data declaration, provider or
(for a module with data) long-running process changes. A person's record, the
bus and any move that cannot be judged still wait. The walk keeps per machine
which way each recorded module went and why, says it in its note and log, and
status names a machine behind with `push <node>` only for a move that waits.
A record kept without its body still carried its subject, which names whose mail it was, with no age. The lead decided such a message is not kept at all: the notice is taken, the message counted, and the log and an aged-out condition say how many messages of the stream aged out undelivered. Unrestricted streams are unchanged.
DEAD_LETTERS kept a message given up on MAIL forever and showed it whole to any caller of dead-letters, outside the grant and past MAIL's week. Per ADR 0376 §3-§6: the kept copy carries a per-message time to live of what is left of its stream's age (a copy already past it is kept without its body), DEAD_LETTERS and EVENTS allow per-message TTL, the list and show give no body or own headers for it, delivering it again needs a minute left and the copy keeps the time left, and its max-deliveries condition clears saying how many aged out undelivered and from which stream.
The tool runner's bus account carried the heard grants, consumer and bind word of every module it runs, and every agent session on that machine reaches the bus as that account, so any session could pull a granted module's consumer on MAIL. Per ADR 0376 §1 the controller now composes a restricted stream's consumer, grants and bind word only for a module that declares runs-as; registration refuses a consumes of a restricted stream without runs-as (§2), and a grant that composes nothing is said in doctor (D-heard) and in the controller's log on every raise and send.
A family like mesh-mail's mail-credential-* names only the module and the secret's key at the desk, so the operator cannot tell which account is asked. An own secret (or a family) may now declare a one-line prompt in its manifest, with {member} filled by a family member's suffix; the module check refuses one that is not one line, over 120 characters, or holds another placeholder. desk_secret.go reads it from the controller's own catalogue and sends it to the desk as what, never from the call or the module's runtime; omitted when none is declared, so an old desk or module behaves as today.

A rebuild that landed while a walk waited for mesh-delivery's word was taken as
the walk's build of that module; once let go, the walk asked a tier only when
every module of it was unasked, so it never asked the rest and stood still.
A walk now takes only the outcomes of builds it asked, and none while it waits;
a rebuild does not join a waiting walk and says it runs beside it; and a tier
asked in part is asked the rest, including a module held built that the walk
never asked for, which is somebody else's build and not sent as the walk's.

A check judges one head; once the pull request has another, its verdict
answers nobody and its run holds a build machine the new head waits
behind. Asking a check of R#N at H now drops every waiting check of R#N
at another head and kills every one in flight, saying each in the log.
Announcements are unordered and a recheck asks a recorded head, so this
happens only when the forge confirms H is the pull request's current
head; otherwise nothing ends and that is said. A one-shot recheck ends
them within the call. Tries, walk builds, group checks, other pull
requests' checks and rechecks of the same head are left alone.

mesh-mail's events must live on a stream of their own and reach only the modules the operator granted
an account (ADR 0359 §2, §4). The controller now creates a module's declared stream, publishes its events
on mesh.stream.<module>.event.<event>, and composes a consumer's durable consumer, filters and bus grants
on a restricted stream only where its consumes asks and the provider's trusted value names it; a consumer
that loses its grant has its consumer removed on the next assertion. Nothing changes while no manifest
declares a stream.

A one-sentence change in a package mesh-builder imports but never reaches moved
build-agent. A merge check now compares each module it builds with the build the
mesh holds, the whole image without file times, labels or creation time, and a
walk is cut without a module every check of its pull requests found the same,
while the mesh still holds that build. A comparison that fails moves the module
as before.

The operator chose the leanest rollout: no gate, no one machine first, failures loud and fixed forward.
A walk sends every rolled-out module to every machine running it in one step, built-by orders no tier,
and a walk ends on its machines' reports. The backlog walk sends every machine at once and passes each
on its applied report.
Without a judge cache the replays still ran mesh-lab's checkout in the workspace
with the container runtime's socket, so a self-judging pull request could write
a test into them (hq issue 709, review 12303). They now run from a copy in a
container volume of the check's own, made before anything of the change runs,
with a fresh home and throwaway caches, removed after the check.

Review of #329: a judge's home made with a temporary directory inside the build
agent is resolved on the host by the container runtime, leaving a cold cache
behind on every check, and a kept judge was lost on every redeploy. Judge builds
now use the judge cache the build agent declares (MESH_JUDGE_CACHE), mounted into
judge builds only: one warm Go cache, the kept judges, and a fresh home per check
removed after it (hq ADR 0358 §6, issue 704, issue 482).

Review of #329: a judge built with HOME in the workspace runs git under a
configuration a pull request's script can plant, so a hook could rewrite the
judge's sources before they compile and the result be kept under an honest key
(issue 482, issue 704). Every judge now builds with its own HOME, configuration
and Go cache outside the workspace, no git configuration and no VCS stamping.

A bus stall of a few seconds made a renewal time out, and the controller
called that a lost lease, exited and raised the urgent lease-lost alert,
though no other controller could take a key that still lived. Now only
another holder seen, or the key's TTL passed unrenewed, loses the lease;
new acts stop at half the TTL unrenewed and resume on the next renewal
(novox/hq issue 477).

A broken service people rely on, such as mail, was said only as a warning on
the desktop. A module may now declare unhealthy urgent with what people lose;
the module check refuses it without why or with another severity.
Review of #329: mesh-lab's replays run with the container runtime's socket, so
a same-named branch must never be what runs there; the shared Go cache and HOME
are writable by a pull request's own script, so the judge kept for a head must
not be built from them (issue 704, issue 482). A forge answer naming no branch
is an error, and a trunk is the branch a repository follows, not a name.

The gate and the repository's check mount the workspace read-write, so a
build from that tree could hold what the tests wrote under a key that
describes the merge. A check now clones the merge outside the workspace
before anything of the change runs, and builds from that. A check keeps,
and a walk takes, only a build an earlier check of the same pull request
at the same head made: another pull request's build, or an earlier
head's, is never registered. The walk reads the verdicts once
(novox/hq issue 703, review of #328).

A fresh check asked when only the trunk moved rebuilt every image, though
the reuse key said nothing it is built from changed: a controller check

digest, names it as the build's own check so a walk takes it, and the
cleanup keeps it while any check names it (novox/hq issue 703).

A storm of closures must not spend a watchdog tick, so the read stops at 2000
events and says the count is a floor. A failed read is its own condition
rather than blinding S9, so the controller's own signals are still said. The
controller's fall behind, told to its client and closed by the server, is one
fault, counted once.

The controller heard a slow consumer only on its own connection: the server
says another user's only in its record of closed connections. The bus module
now says that record as events; the watchdogs read the last hour back on every
tick and raise one condition per user and kind, naming the module and machine.
The module check lets the bus module emit, since its tool runner publishes.

Store tests skip without a store and no agent may start one, so each failure
cost a 15-30 minute review round. The try verb asks the build seat for the
repository's merge-check.sh on the ref merged into the trunk, as a check in
the build queue, and reads its outcome from the build's log: no status on
the forge, nothing registered, nothing built for a merge.
A builder's store tests first ran in the pull request's merge check, a review
round late. These fail on main: a try asks the repository's own check alone,
its outcome sets no status and registers nothing, an unknown ref is refused
before anything is asked, and the answer carries the failing lines.
