LavinMQ refuses a non-administrator declaring a queue with a dead-letter
exchange, so a scoped module cannot make its own. EnsureModuleQueue declares
<node>.<module>.events with its DLX as the mesh, and 'module issue' does so
for a consuming module — the runtime then passively checks it rather than
declaring. Verified against a real broker: the scoped account binds and
consumes the pre-declared queue.

'module issue <module> --node <m>' looks up the module's emits/consumes from
the catalogue, ensures the bus exchanges exist, creates its scoped account
(CreateModuleAccount), and seals an amqps {url,fingerprint} to the node as the
module's broker own-secret — the same delivery as 'builder issue', now generic.

novox/hq ADR 0035: one implementation, several surfaces, and a surface
holds no decisions. The act of assigning — including that an assignment
which does not resolve is kept and still refused — moved into acts.go,
and the command line now calls it too. Two surfaces, one refusal, in the
same words.
It will not run without --issuer, and refuses at start rather than per
request so it is found by whoever ran it rather than by whoever finds
it. There is no flag that removes the check.
The authenticator is honest about what it is: no token can be verified
until an identity provider exists, because that is a module and none is
running, so every request is refused and told that the command line
still works. A surface that functioned without authentication would be
one somebody left running — and the board this stands behind is
published on a public name.
Four refusals, four tests. The last one first asserted "not 200", which
passed because a request with no database fails at the store anyway — it
proved nothing about whether the input was checked. It now asserts the
specific refusal, and bites when the check is removed.
Working out what a machine should be reaches the identity context for its
certificate and the licence context for its model access. Both were opened —
and waited on — inside functions called for every node in a push. Two machines
hid it. Fifty would be fifty connect-and-wait cycles for data that does not
change while the push runs.
So a command holds what it has open, and passes it. Each context is opened on
first use rather than up front, because most commands need one and paying to
reach three would be the same waste from the other side.
The contexts stay separate, which is the point: this is one struct holding
three connections to three databases, not one connection to a shared one. No
context reaches another's store, and each still holds only its own credential
(novox/hq ADR 0008).
A pure move again — the gate is green before and after, and no test changed.
2,769 lines and 59 functions, holding command parsing, store opening,
resolution, the board, rotation, licences, builds and status rendering.
Nothing in it was wrong. It grew because appending was always the cheapest next
step, and no single edit was the one that should have been a new file.
That is exactly how novox/hq ADR 0001 records `hal/sdk` reaching 155 files and
34,636 lines — "containing code from every context", with each addition
avoiding a cycle and none of them the mistake. This is the same shape at 8% of
the size, which is why it is worth doing now rather than noting.
Eight files, along boundaries that already existed: what a machine is; the
private network; the catalogue; working out what one machine should be; sending
it; builds; the three questions; and reaching each context's store. main.go
keeps what a main is for — parsing arguments and dispatching.
A pure move. No behaviour changed, no test changed, and the gate is green
before and after — which is the only thing that makes a refactor this size
safe to do in one commit.
