Delivery 2 deleted the move and chain_moved, so the layout of the builds under their modules is made by the controller's start (LayBuildsOut), recorded by the key layout.done in the builds bucket, retried every half minute with an urgent condition while it fails; the chain on the bus is refused until it exists. Its source readers use the module and pointer reads.

Milestone 5 moved 8,599 build records onto the bus under bare build ids, each
carrying its module's whole manifest. Every build lookup then read the whole
bucket, and a delivery plan's send did that per module per machine while it
held the plans and the machine's declaration: the send of build-agent never
finished, and every other act and the status waited behind it.
Builds now live under <module>.build.<id> (requests under req.<id>, id.<id>
names a build's module), with pointer keys newest, worked, held,
commit.<sha> and source.<reuse key> that move only to a newer build and are
read as hints, repaired when wrong. Manifests are kept once in the same
bucket under manifest.sha256-<hex>, so no grant the running bus lacks is
needed. The old keys are laid out once at start, idempotently, and left
unread. The calls a plan look makes on the silent clocks while it holds the
plans are bounded, since the vendored kv.Keys ignores its context.
Every method of builds, build requests, rollouts, merges and assignments reads and writes the chain alone: the else branches that read the tables, the movers and MoveChain with their tests, chain_moved reads, ChainReads and the flags that switched a kind, the store's assignments mirror (KeepAssignmentPlans needs none of it: it uses only the AssignmentMirrored type, mirrors.go, and AssignmentValues, provisioning.go) and its tick, the move code of the controller's start, and ForTest's chain_moved row. The listed store tests of the move go with their functions; the tests of the readers, requests, assignments and plans that lived beside them stay in chain_store_test.go. Tests that replayed old data migrations over the build, assignment and pin tables are removed with the tables. The static test that no plan is written but through SavePlansMoving now reads the plan's chain path.
Once chain_moved records the kind, RecordBuild and every build read go through the chain (reuse key and published added); before that the tables are read as before. The serving controller copies the rows at its start, holding the lease: idempotent per key, rows counted against keys, the largest value measured, a refusal (urgent condition, nothing switched) on a count that differs or a value over the bus's largest, and a re-read when the table took a row meanwhile. ForTest attaches the chain in memory with builds moved; ForTestBefore leaves it unmoved. Build requests, gates and the other kinds are still in their tables.

An image is not byte-reproducible, so ADR 0236's 'same artifacts is no move'
never held for one: a catalogue merge that did not touch the bus rebuilt it,
and every send to the control node waited for a planned bus upgrade.
The builder now records a source fingerprint per build (module tree, context
trees, bases and toolchains by digest). A rebuild with the fingerprint of the
build it repeats is registered with that build's artifacts, handed to modules
standing on it, holds no push, demands no bus step, and a plan sends and
gates nothing for it. Identical artifacts remain a second way to be no move.
