The claude-code module keeps the managed settings and tool servers every
Claude Code session on a node runs in a mergeable file, and TerminalKeys
only counted ${setting:} placeholders, so any caller of the settings verb,
an agent included, could plant a hook in the operator's sessions on every
node (hq issue 340).

The fourth review (hq issue 339): the safe reading of a file that asks for a
setting and does not say is that root or a consumer trusts it, so its
settings are the terminal's; `"trusted": false` is the opt-out. With that,
nothing unsafe is left to refuse: `module check` lists and counts the
unmarked files and never refuses them.

The keeper keeps each transition from its own goroutine, which reads the memory
store's Fail field under the store's lock; tests assigned the exported field
bare, so TestAnUnreadableStoreClearsNothing failed under -race whenever the
goroutine appended in that window. The field is now set only through SetFail
(and Told's likewise), and a test makes the race certain rather than rare.
Test-only: the controller runs the bus store, never InMemory.

The third review of #170 (hq issue 339): a setting overrides any key a
provider serves, so any caller of the settings verb could move a database's
port, a registry's port or an issuer to a listener of its own and collect
what consumers present. TerminalKeys now derives from the manifest: places,
accesses, every served key and every setting a served value asks for, and
every setting a file marked `trusted` asks for. `trusted` is the catalogue's
word, taken out before the declaration; `module check` warns of a file that
asks for a setting without saying, and refuses it from 2026-10-30. The hand
list is gone. A directory used as found is now its own condition kind, the
operator's, never urgent, and the gate exempts it where it exempts a relogin.

The review of #170: step-ca's root, roots and path and the identity
provider's issuer are what every consumer trusts, and any caller of the
settings verb could replace them; they are now terminal keys like places and
accesses (hq issue 339). /var/lib/containerd joins the runtimes' data. And a
directory the node-engine uses as found failed its module's gate and rolled
its builds back; found before the send, it is now a wait for a person the
gate passes with, as a relogin is (ADR 0254), and only one the send itself
found holds the module.

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.

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 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.

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.

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.

Let go of alone after a build, an index's platforms stayed for ever under a record that
said collected, so no later collect could reach them (re-review of #144).
An unrecorded index or a copy in progress can name a platform the records do not see, so
only a person's collect, after its dry run, takes an index's platforms, and only once every
kept index of each repository it touches was read. A copy missing a platform is copied
again, and a copy a build holds again is no longer recorded as collected (review of #144).
A copied base was named only in what a build stood on, and nowhere when the build failed,
so the store's sweep could never let one go (hq issue 321). One repository per upstream
image stops each module asking the public registry for the same image again, and letting
an index go now takes its own platform manifests, which otherwise kept every byte. A
person can record the copies no record names through the new mirrors verb (hq ADR 0257).
The forge test fix is the same commit as on feat/plain-notifications: main fails without it.

A piece whose shows the holder's template does not know rendered as nothing and failed
the whole machine's declaration; it is now left out and named, for push, plan and the

A "Needs you" with no button left the operator guessing where to act, and a click

Review found that a desk click proves nothing about who chose, that refused words
