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…
mesh/delivery covered: a later merge that contains it was delivered: novox/mesh-controller@4291fee68e95 (merged as a5a132ac into main, walk plan-17913907…
A module could say nothing about what ready means for what it runs, so a web
application with its port open and its requests hanging passed everything for
eleven hours (issue 145). A long-running resource now carries `health` — the
image's own check adopted by name, http, tcp, exec, unit or a module's own tool,
with its timing — refused near its author when it names a port or an address,
an endpoint the module does not declare, a tool it does not serve, a tool check
alone, or a timing outside the record's bounds. It is composed with the endpoint
as the port this machine published it on, and sent only to a node-engine whose
statement says it reads it: an older one would refuse the whole declaration.
The engine is granted its own machine's instance of each health tool. `module
check` warns of every long-running resource without `health`, counts them for
the catalogue, and refuses them from 2026-11-18. A check's findings stay out of
a condition's summary. The node-engine's validator is vendored at its Phase B
commit, so what is composed is judged by the words the engine takes.
A build that reported applied was sent everywhere; one that then did nothing, served
no tools or broke its machine's word reached every machine. Now the first machine is
judged by the component's health (the core's definitions, as doctor probes H-*, or a
module's own) three times over two minutes within ten; a failing gate puts the previous
build back there once, marks the build, and says it as a condition and an event.
Upgrades roll out by default; the bus is a planned step; a module deleted at its
source is not built (the public-acme plan failure).
