A push leaves out a module whose settings do not compose and sends the rest,
which is right, but only plan said so: nfs-server ran nowhere for days while
the operator believed it ran. The self-check now raises needs-operator for a
setting nobody gave, naming the setting and the command, and left-out for any
other cause; both warnings, cleared once the module composes or is unassigned.
status and node show list the same modules as assigned, not applied.

A seat's queue made again numbers from one, so an old dead letter's sequence
can name a live ask; deleting by number alone would drop it silently. An ask
with no worker would wait unseen while counted as delivered.

A build ask its seat's worker gave up on could only be dropped, though the
controller already holds the publish on that seat's accepts and the stream
API to remove the original. Asks to other seats stay refused: delivering them
needs a grant ADR 0264 withholds, in the asker's name ADR 0259 protects.
Tests that read ../../../mesh-catalog or ../../../mesh-host gave a verdict
that depended on what sat beside the checkout: a stale or dirty sibling
failed them on a desktop, and a missing one skipped them unseen. They now
read the clone the build seat puts in MESH_CHECK_BESIDE, failing when it is
absent there, and elsewhere a copy captured at a named commit.
The skip had hidden that the builder test read a module retired by ADR 0190.
The systemd reading test no longer counts the machine's own environment.d.

The give-up time is not newer for every letter kept: a notice that could
not be kept is offered again a minute later, so a later give-up can be kept
first and the one after it read as not fresh. The stored time rises with the
stream's sequence. A consumer whose letters vanish between the two reads is
left out of the look instead of counted as a look, and the skip of a
token-less max-deliveries advisory now has a test of its own.

The dead-letter row and a max-deliveries advisory without a token both said
bus.<stream>.<consumer>.max-deliveries: each look added an observation and a
line of evidence through the row, and the two overwrote each other's words.
The row owns the key since issue 330, so the advisory watcher leaves it, and
the row now says when the newest held message was given up, so a letter held
for a day no longer reads as observed every 30 seconds. Times without Happened
is refused, since the raise ignored it and an update counted it.

The case-insensitive rule for the mesh's namespace words took ${PORT:-8080},
${SHELL:-/bin/sh}, ${SECRET:?unset} and ${dir:-/tmp} for misspellings, though they
are among the commonest lines of a script or env file. A :-, :=, :+ or :? after the
colon is the shell's, whatever the word's case.

The first sweep ran at composition over the resource after settings, bindings and
machine facts were filled, so an operator's value such as ${labels:instance} was
refused as a misspelling its author never wrote, and the whole machine got nothing.
Both points now sweep the resource as the manifest wrote it, against one table of
which fields each pass fills, so the check and composition refuse the same things.
Any ${<known namespace>: its pattern does not take is refused whatever its case or key.
Issue 231's undeclared-setting half is not met here: refusing a key the module does
not declare (ADR 0164) is not built and is handed to issue 398.
S9 reads the one remembered advisory again on every look for an hour, and
each look was kept as an observation and a line of evidence, so a single
refusal read as one repeated every 30 seconds. An observation may now say
when what it reads happened and how often; the keeper counts that, and a
look with nothing newer adds nothing. Sources that look at the present
keep counting their looks.

The review of #210 found that the fix left the hole open and widened
another.
A command's words were cut on a space alone, while the verb's own
splitter parts them on a space, a tab or a newline. The same line
written with tabs found no space, so all of it was kept — the very hole
this closes. Its words are now parted as the splitter parts them.
And because the command arm sits above the arm that caps a string at
120 bytes, a command kept whole was no longer capped: for a 300-byte
single token the change kept more than the code it replaced. The first
word now carries the same cap.
A one-word command is still kept whole, but the comment no longer
claims it carries nothing to withhold: the record is written before the
verb judges the line, so one word may be a token or compact JSON. The
cap is what bounds that.
The test now says the whole of what is kept for each line, which is
also what proves the rest is gone, and looks for forbidden words as
whole words rather than as substrings — so "set" is back in the list,
and "show" cannot hide in a word such as "shown". All eight cases fail
against the unfixed code.

kept() withheld the arguments line, values, secret and stdin, and kept
the command argument of the generic command verb verbatim. A line such
as `settings set <module> '<value>' --node <node>` therefore put the
value into the calls record, which answers anyone who may call the seat.
It is now kept as a mesh-cli line is: its first word, with the rest said
to have been given. A command of one word is kept whole, since there is
nothing after it to withhold, and one that is not a string is kept as
"(given, not kept)".
The record as it stands holds no such line: its whole answer, read at
2026-10-10 22:52 UTC, carries no call of the command verb. That says
nothing of calls older than its window.

A module waiting for the operator's secret failed its first-node gate, held
every later walk and was said as 'nothing for you to do'. The node-engine's
new waiting state is checked against the manifest and the secrets given,
read by the gate as a wait for a person, and raised as needs-operator naming
the act. A secret family gives each part its own one-line secret, which the
mesh never makes, so the desk prompt can take each password.

#206's own walk kept its first send 783 ms before its build, and delivery
walks said send-first measured at -783 ms. A moment recorded before the
one before it now makes both phases unknown: the earlier one's time joins
the unknown time, the later one has none, and the walk goes on from the
later moment. Measured phases and unknown time still add up to the total.

The operator's budget (a leaf module running everywhere within five minutes
of its merge, a core module within ten) cannot be held to without knowing
where a walk's time goes. A walk now keeps when its batch's window closed,
when it was cut and its class (migration 0093), each gate reading, and what
each machine of the rest was sent; 'delivery walks' and plan-moved say its
phases from the merge to every machine of the rest reporting the build
applied, and ended walks keep them as walk-phase durations per class. Probe
D16 reads mesh-delivery's 'times' and raises delivery.<class>.over-budget.
A phase that cannot be measured is said unknown, never zero. Measurement
only: no walk is held, sent or judged differently.

A reading now keeps the path it was measured at, and the peak is read only from
readings at the item's path now. Before, an agent's home that moved to its own
account was compared with the operator's home it left, and data-shrank was
raised for data that was never lost. Existing readings take their item's path
now, so a shrink that is real stays raised.

The give verb opened the desk's hidden prompt for a module's own secret, with the desk named. Now the
secret-ask verb (secret ask <node> <module> <name> [--at <desk>]) opens the same prompt from anywhere on
the mesh, with the desk the module's machine unless named, and give composes the same line. Every ask
is recorded in the store before the prompt opens (migration 0091): one open ask per secret, three an
hour, so an agent cannot keep a prompt in front of the operator. The prompt names who asked, from the
bus's word on the caller cut to a name's characters, never an argument of the call. The value stays
typed at the desk, sealed to the one call and then to the module's machine, never in an argument, a
log or an event; a secret the mesh makes itself and a trusted party's secret are refused as before.

Issue 339 made every trusted setting the controller's terminal's alone, so an agent could only hand the
operator a line to type at the control node. Now anyone the bus admits may PROPOSE a layer: settings
propose keeps the proposal in the controller's own asks (the asked bucket, which the controller alone
writes), judged as settings set judges, and asks the operator on the operator channel at the level
approve with every key, its exact new value (in its shape where a path or an address may not leave the
mesh), the was of a changed key, the removed keys and the layer's fingerprint. The serving controller
sets the layer on the warrant alone: once, for the ask it holds, only when the record's values still
digest to what the option bound and the layer is still the one shown, with the terminal's judgement and
history, and keeps who approved it beside the layer, which settings says back (migration 0090). Decline,
expiry, a cancel, a replacement or the router's refusal discard it; nothing is asked when no router, no
grant or no channel can carry it. settings proposals lists them. The push afterwards is a separate act.

Every merge opened a walk and the next merge of the branch superseded it: two
catalogue merges 18 s apart left a walk no delivery held, and the operator
started it by hand 58 minutes later. A merge now joins the open batch, kept in
the store (migration 0089), which is cut into one walk when no merge came for
merge-window (90 s) or at merge-window-at-most (10 min): one commit per
repository, the latest of its branch, with every file the batch's merges
changed. One walk at a time; a started walk is never superseded, a waiting one
is folded into the next. The walk names every merge it answers on the wire
(delivery.merges, taken_over_by, batch). A failed walk walks its earlier merges
alone, newest first, until one is delivered. A delivery group's order becomes
tier edges inside the walk. plans shows the batch assembling; S18 and S19
bound its waits; S16 names the merges a waiting walk answers.

A what-if named the build seat's holder as packaging the controller's
source, "rebuilt without their own source moving", while it was in the
plan because an open plan had not built it yet. The what-if and the merge
log now say, per module, which changed files of its build source moved it,
or that it is read whole and why: no build source recorded, a newer build
failed, or a plan has not built it yet.

A module that asks the operator acts with its own grants, and the hand-act log is where a person's
decisions are read back. The new verb warranted records who chose, how and with which proofs from the
router's record, never the caller's word, once per ask however many instances ask.

A plan that closed without building a module hid a missed merge from it;
a window of recent plans let an old closure back in once the plan that
overtook it slid out; a merge the forge gave no time was acted on again
every pass. A plan answering the merge's own commit is now a look at it,
and clocks a little apart do not make a merge history.
A failed build, or a plan closed before reaching a module, left the
closure its last good build said, and a fix-forward to a newly imported
package would have moved nothing. A missed merge moving only a module
that packages the repository was never caught up, and an older merge
read as history for it through a look that was not its own. The gate,
a pull request's check, the what-if and a delivery's order now read the
same view the merge handler does.
Every merge to the controller's repository planned the controller, the
build seat's holder and the route proxy in three gated tiers, whatever it
changed (issue 338). The planner now maps a merge's files onto the build
source each module's newest trunk build said: a README moves nothing, the
controller's command the controller alone, the proxy's program the proxy
alone. A module with none said, or one an open plan has yet to build, is
read whole as before. Sharing a repository draws no packages edge any more,
and one recorded before neither widens nor orders a plan.

A hand build of an older trunk commit said a closure lacking what was
imported since, and the planner would have mapped the next merge onto it.
C and assembly beside Go may include files below their directory, and a
go.mod made above a package moves it out of its module: each is now held.

A merge to the controller's repository moved the route proxy and the build
seat's holder whatever it changed, because nothing said which files their
builds read. A build of a trunk commit now says its build source per
repository: a Go program's import closure, an archive's directory, an
image's recipe and the package it names in the new 'compiles' field. That
image is built from its build source alone, so a recipe reading past it
fails by name, and its fingerprint is over what it was handed.
