The confirmation review asked who may answer root-free on the bus. Composed from the controller's own
manifest, the module principal of the machine running the controller and that machine's runtime were
granted the controller seat's tool subjects too: either could answer root-free, and the runtime's
credential is one an agent on that machine may hold. The controller's seat is now served by the
controller principal alone, in grants and memberships; TestOnlyTheServingControllerMayAnswerRootFree
failed before (3 answerers) and passes. And a machine waiting for its first setuid search is not
root-free, whatever ADR 0266's quiet window does to the self-check.
The agent-root probe read the sudo module's answer, given in the machine's runtime as the very account
an agent could become, and took a missing account, a missing answer or no accounts as a pass. One
judgement now decides: the machine names an agent account its node-engine judged unable to become
root within 15 minutes (agentConfined, mesh-controller #164), and the login shell's execute is not
served there; anything not read is not free. The probe raises agent-root on it, the new root-free
verb answers it live for the router, and a push composes verified-sender for a kind only while its
machine and the router's pass it.
mesh/merge-gate pass: builds build-agent, mesh-controller, route-proxy → ace, g14, novox, shanks; no bus step; every machine composes with the change as it…
A derived read reached the whole bucket, and the power module could write every
machine's draw. A read granted for a block now reaches that block's key alone, by the
direct get of its subject and a consumer filtered to it, and state declared per-machine
is written and read at the machine's own key only.
A manifest names the state it keeps (state) and reads (reads); the controller
asserts a key-value bucket per name on every raise, grants owners write and
readers read (measured against a running server), issues each assignment its
buckets in the membership, and reports buckets nothing declares without
removing them.
The proxy answered every routed name to any request carrying it, so an
internal-only route would have been public under its internal name. Each
membership now carries what its module receives, from the same
composition as its received file, and every machine's private-network
address, the list the packet filter's "from the mesh" is. The proxy
follows its membership, serves internal names only to those machines and
itself, and keeps the file until the bus has spoken (novox/hq ADR 0167,
issue 191).
For every module on every machine the controller composes what that instance serves — its machine's
address always, the module's plain address in a queue when it is alone or its definition says its
instances are interchangeable — the verbs of the seats it holds at the seats' subjects, where its
events land, and what it may reach, resolved the same way for the modules it invokes. Published
beside the node's declaration on `mesh.assignment.<node>.<module>`, last per subject in a stream
that allows direct reads, and the account may read exactly its own. Composed from the same records
the bus's accounts are, so what a runtime serves and what its account may are one composition.
`instances: interchangeable` is the one fact a definition states for it.
The shape issued is the shape the mesh already had, so nothing moves when the membership arrives;
the runtime that reads it instead of deriving it is the next piece.
