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…
Third review of mesh-catalog #147. A setting anywhere else in a unit's name could make the unit another
unit or another kind; it is now refused where the manifest is read. A value beginning with '-' would be
read by systemctl as an option, and a long one is no pool's name.

A module that holds the distribution's scrub timer for the pool the operator names
(zfs-scrub-weekly@<pool>.timer) cannot write the pool into its definition (hq ADR 0112). Settings were
substituted only into file content, so the unit reached the machine as
"zfs-scrub-weekly@${setting:scrub-pool}.timer", a unit no machine has, and the apply failed far from its
cause (second review of mesh-catalog #147).
A service's unit now takes ${setting:} from the same layers a file does, and is refused by key when
nothing sets it. A value is also refused unless it is only letters, digits, ':', '_', '.' and '-': the
name ends up in unit files and systemctl arguments, and a space, a slash or a newline must never reach
them. A key a unit asks for is not called stray.

execute runs any command as the operator account, which can become root
without a person. The operator withholds it on the control-node until a
call needs a person's approval (hq ADR 0268); the holder withholds it per
machine through its own setting. With execute required, that holder could
not hold the seat there and would be judged silent. ADR 0246's optional
mark lets it hold the seat without serving the verb.

Through the settings verb, or a settings line run by the generic command
verb, any caller of the mesh's console could place a module's directory at
/etc with an owner of its own and have the node-engine, as root, hand it
over at the next push, or mount any of the machine's paths into a container
(hq issue 339). A change to either key is now refused in every process a
verb runs, the generic verb refuses settings writes outright, and neither key
may name the machine's own trees from anywhere, the terminal included. A
line break, carriage return or NUL in any setting, which a file it is
written into reads as a line of the caller's own, is refused where a layer
is kept and where it is composed; PEM blocks alone may hold lines.

The test's fixture had no worker-of edge and expected the builder first,
then the controller and the proxy together: the order before hq issue 206.
Since then the build seat's holder follows the controller that defines its
worker, and every controller merge plans controller, builder, proxy in
three tiers. The fixture now carries the edge and the test that order.
A packages edge orders nothing, so a module and what packages its source
share a tier by rule; hasCycle counted the edge and the merge handler said
"the last tier depends on itself" of plans with no cycle. Skip the kind as
tiersOf does. The planner tests' cycle rows and property now pass.

A table of merges (two repositories, every edge kind, a diamond, a cycle,
files no build reads) and a seeded property over 500 random catalogues pin
what a merge moves and in which tiers, per ADR 0162 and ADR 0238 §3. The
shared-repository rows document today's behaviour that issue 338 would
change, once with hand edges and once with edges derived from the store.
The cycle check fails on main: hasCycle reads a packages edge between two
modules of the last tier as a cycle, so a plan with none is said to have
one. Left failing, marked BUG, for the planner's fix.

Each verb ran as a process that dialled the bus, so hundreds of short
connections an hour, all named mesh-controller, hid any client reconnecting
in a loop (hq issue 327). D15 now says a user whose connections keep dropping.

A build that passed on its first machine was judged again from that
machine's next reports while its send to the rest waited; another walk's
unreported send there then failed the passed build at the wait's bound
and put it back.

A dead letter was let go as delivered even when its consumer did not filter
its again subject; seat asks needed a grant over every seat's queue and left
the original stuck; a notices bind failure stopped the controller (review).
Design 25 promised a dead-letter stream that did not exist: a message a
consumer gave up on stayed only in its source, which drops it after a week,
and its condition cleared when the advisories stopped (hq issue 330, ADR 0264).

An unplaceable line of a left-out module, such as an access nobody placed, failed the whole machine's
declaration. Say it among what could not be placed instead, never copy the definition's path past a
placement that does not read, and accept a removal only when the decoder is past it.

A machine sharing folders and a machine mounting them each need one holder
per machine, with verbs an agent calls instead of exportfs, fstab edits or
zfs set. Both seats deliver nothing: nfs-share is provided at the mesh's
scope. The two adopt verbs are dry runs unless confirmed.

A module left out for an unknown key inside an entry lost its whole manifest, so every consumer of what
it provides was refused and its data stopped being copied. Read past only the unknown key, keep its
backup lines, and say in the condition what stops.

disable cannot remove an enable link whose unit file is gone, so a
leftover unit stays wanted at every login with no verb to end it. Optional
until the systemd module serves it (ADR 0246 step 1).

A key dropped silently ran a module without what its manifest says, and a key inside a block still
failed the whole catalogue. Judge a key by what it is about, and narrow the listing to one machine.
One verb is the interface to every preference, so no module builds a settings tool of its own: each
key, its default and why, and every assigned machine's value with its source.
A strict read of the stored catalogue fails every plan and send once a manifest uses a field an older
controller lacks; registration stays strict. A node named default lost its layer to the name check.
Judge the operator's keys by whole words, and scan a default under any key.
Without a default, a running module could never gain a setting: the file asking for it
failed to compose until set, and the key was refused as stray until a file asked for it.
Defaults sit under the mesh's and the node's settings, never merge into a JSON file, are
refused for the operator's own values, and settings shows each value's source.

A failed unit whose file is gone stays raised until its record is reset,
and nothing could say which unit or enable link still asks for it. Both
verbs are optional until the systemd module serves them (ADR 0246 step 1).

The backlog is held after any failed walk, not only a release, and a check is a pull
request's status; the words said the last release failed its check.

Second review of #150: one key per machine and module let a newer failure
be cleared in the tick that raised it, pruning could orphan an open
condition, and a build no longer waited for read as never asked although it
may still run.

The release-held words said "release them, or leave them held" without the modules,
the machines or the mesh MCP server, so the operator could neither tell what waited
nor where to act (ADR 0258). The controller's restart needs missed the same suffix.
A test now holds every need that opens with a verb only the mesh MCP server performs
to name it, so a new kind cannot miss it.
Review of #150: a withdrawal could land between the look and the act, a
failed ask read as a build in flight, a request kept the wrong asker, a
build being registered read as not built, build "true" could ask a build
nothing waited on, and a status read changed state. Claim a row under the
machine's hold before making it, keep a request only once asked, settle on
the controller's own tick, raise an assignment not made as a condition
until it is answered, and tie each row to its machine.
A merge asks for a new module's build, and assign answered "no module of that
name" until the build registered it, which read as a module nobody registered
(hq issue 325). Keep every build request, tell a build in flight, a module
known and not built, and an unknown name apart, and make an assignment made
while the build runs when the build registers the module.

A derived read reached the whole bucket, and the power module could write every
machine's draw. A read granted for a block now reaches that block's key alone, by the
direct get of its subject and a consumer filtered to it, and state declared per-machine
is written and read at the machine's own key only.
