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.
novox/hq ADR 0147. ca-trust carries a script and a unit; the one thing
neither can state is where the authority is, because that is a fact about
the mesh. This checks the rendering — the script fetches from the bound
address and is executable, and the unit runs it both ways, install and
remove. The verification itself is the lab's.
