The controller's check spent 3-5 minutes in cmd/mesh-controller, whose few hundred store tests run one
after another, while most packages end in seconds. merge-check.sh now compiles each slow package once and
deals its tests round-robin into processes that run beside each other and beside the rest of the suite;
every test still runs once, under the race detector, through its package's TestMain. The listed store
tests run beside the suite instead of after it.
internal/builder's judge tests ran a real go build with a fresh Go cache each, compiling the standard
library every time: half the suite's CPU. The fake runtime fills an empty cache from one warmed per
process. The lease tests run in parallel. The link test of slow work now sets its one-second window after
the serving loop asserted the controller's thirty-second one, so it proves the heartbeat (it passed
without it) in half the time.

Store tests skip without a store and no agent may start one, so each failure
cost a 15-30 minute review round. The try verb asks the build seat for the
repository's merge-check.sh on the ref merged into the trunk, as a check in
the build queue, and reads its outcome from the build's log: no status on
the forge, nothing registered, nothing built for a merge.
mesh/repo-check pass: THE CHANGE ALTERS ITS OWN CHECK (merge-check.sh): main's version judged it; the change's judges the pull requests after it merges; it…
The step let tests escape it: a one-field line ran nothing, go test's exit
status was ignored, a pull request could drop entries main lists, and a
result written mid-line by go test -v read as NOT RUN, hiding a FAIL
(novox/hq issue 515).
mesh/merge-gate pass: builds build-agent → ace, g14, novox, shanks; no bus step; every machine composes with the change as it did without (4 of 4 compose)

A test that needs the store skips without one, and a skip passes unseen, so a
change's store tests could pass the check without ever running. Tests named in
testdata/store-tests must each run and pass, said by name.
Every pull request the forge announces is mapped onto the mesh's module graph by the
merge handler's rule (issue 278): touching a module — or adding one — runs the gate
(mesh/merge-gate), its judge chosen by the graph (the controller judges itself, the
node-engine by its validator); a repository of the mesh that touches none runs only its
own merge-check.sh (mesh/repo-check), a warning when it has none. Nothing is left pending:
a repository outside the mesh touching nothing is told so as a pass.
The gate moves out of the per-repository scripts into the build seat, so a script is the
repository's own tests and declares its toolchain (go or typescript). The controller's
manifest names every verb of its seat again (ADR 0132), held by a test.
Every check the mesh had ran after a merge, on a machine: a manifest the node-engine refused
(236), an identity a real machine's name made too long (263). merge-gate raises the mesh as the
facts snapshot says it is and the mesh with the change, each in a throwaway store through the
controller's own records, composes every machine twice and validates it with the node-engine's
validator, and fails what the change breaks, naming the machine's roles and the module - plus a
manifest the judging controller cannot read, a consumer left out of its grant, a module removed
while a machine runs it, a new module the node-engine would refuse; it warns on a wide rebuild.
The forge's new head of a pull request becomes a check the controller asks of the build seat:
the head and, beside it, the controller the mesh runs, the catalogue, the host and the lab; a
throwaway store and bus of the versions the mesh runs; the repository's merge-check.sh in the
mesh's Go toolchain with no container runtime socket; then mesh-lab's replays. The verdict is
said as checked, an error never a pass, and nothing is recorded or registered.
