Builds novox/hq ADR 0350 (accepted by the operator) for issue 649: a merge built every moved module again although its check had judged the same merged tree.
What it does
The check builds what the merge moves (§1). The controller asks the check to build the delivery plan's modules in tier order (CheckRequest.Builds): a module of the repository checked from the merge the check made, a module standing on one from its own repository at its branch. After the check has judged and not failed, the builder takes each module's reuse key first and builds only keyed modules into scratch/<module>/<artifact>, chaining the scratch builds as later tiers' bases. The key is the source fingerprint's parts (module tree, context trees, bases and toolchains by digest; issue 280), the builder's own executable digest, and any upstream image (refused when named by tag). Each build is kept as a record under scratch/<module>:r1-<key> and listed in the verdict (check-outcome.built, checked.built). A check builds with no package-registry credential, since the code is not yet approved. A module reading the repository through a context, one the merge deletes, or one without a key is not built, and neither is anything in a later tier.
The walk takes a build of the same key (§2). Only a plan's ask carries reuse (never a check, a dry run, build --ref, rebuild or replay). On a commit on its trunk, the builder takes the key by the same steps a build takes and stops before anything is built. When a check build has the key, the builder copies it by digest into <module>/<artifact>, mounting blobs, and answers with that build, building nothing.
Otherwise it builds and says why (§3). The reasons are: no check of the walk's pull requests built it, the key differs (naming the part: build source, base image, context, toolchain, builder's version, upstream image), the check build was removed, or the commit is off its trunk. A failed copy is said and falls back to a build.
Per module, said and kept (§4).PlanModule.made holds "reused from the check of owner/repo#n at head H (merged into trunk T): artifact digest, …" or "built: ". It travels in plan-moved. A build seat from before this says neither, and that is what is kept.
Removal (§5). Every build-seat holder lets go of check builds older than 7 days, at start and hourly. The controller lets go of a pull request's check builds when the walk answering its merge ends. The new controller verb forget-checks does it for a pull request closed unmerged; the delivery owner asks it (mesh-catalog PR). Removal is done through the artifact store, as collect does, and not through a new build-seat verb. A new build-seat verb would make the catalogue's build-agent manifest and the controller depend on each other's release.
Gate and dry run unchanged (§6). Registration refuses any reference in the scratch namespace. The gate judges the registered build whether the walk built it or took it.
Tests (they fail on main: the types and functions do not exist there)
TestAReusedCheckBuildIsRegisteredByItsDigestAndGatedAsABuiltOne (store test, listed in testdata/store-tests; not run here, since no store may be raised on this machine)
gofmt, go vet ./... and go test -race ./... pass (without the store).
Rollout. This PR goes first. The mesh-catalog PR (mesh-delivery invoking forget-checks) follows it. An old builder ignores builds and reuse and builds as today. The walk then says "built: the build seat did not say … (it predates ADR 0350)". The first merge after the builder rolls rebuilds once, because the builder's version is in the key.

Builds novox/hq ADR 0350 (accepted by the operator) for issue 649: a merge built every moved module again although its check had judged the same merged tree.
**What it does**
- **The check builds what the merge moves (§1).** The controller asks the check to build the delivery plan's modules in tier order (`CheckRequest.Builds`): a module of the repository checked from the merge the check made, a module standing on one from its own repository at its branch. After the check has judged and not failed, the builder takes each module's reuse key first and builds only keyed modules into `scratch/<module>/<artifact>`, chaining the scratch builds as later tiers' bases. The key is the source fingerprint's parts (module tree, context trees, bases and toolchains by digest; issue 280), the builder's own executable digest, and any upstream image (refused when named by tag). Each build is kept as a record under `scratch/<module>:r1-<key>` and listed in the verdict (`check-outcome.built`, `checked.built`). A check builds with no package-registry credential, since the code is not yet approved. A module reading the repository through a context, one the merge deletes, or one without a key is not built, and neither is anything in a later tier.
- **The walk takes a build of the same key (§2).** Only a plan's ask carries `reuse` (never a check, a dry run, `build --ref`, `rebuild` or `replay`). On a commit on its trunk, the builder takes the key by the same steps a build takes and stops before anything is built. When a check build has the key, the builder copies it by digest into `<module>/<artifact>`, mounting blobs, and answers with that build, building nothing.
- **Otherwise it builds and says why (§3).** The reasons are: no check of the walk's pull requests built it, the key differs (naming the part: build source, base image, context, toolchain, builder's version, upstream image), the check build was removed, or the commit is off its trunk. **A failed copy is said and falls back to a build.**
- **Per module, said and kept (§4).** `PlanModule.made` holds "reused from the check of owner/repo#n at head H (merged into trunk T): artifact digest, …" or "built: <why>". It travels in `plan-moved`. A build seat from before this says neither, and that is what is kept.
- **Removal (§5).** Every build-seat holder lets go of check builds older than 7 days, at start and hourly. The controller lets go of a pull request's check builds when the walk answering its merge ends. The new controller verb `forget-checks` does it for a pull request closed unmerged; the delivery owner asks it (mesh-catalog PR). Removal is done through the artifact store, as `collect` does, and not through a new build-seat verb. A new build-seat verb would make the catalogue's build-agent manifest and the controller depend on each other's release.
- **Gate and dry run unchanged (§6).** Registration refuses any reference in the scratch namespace. The gate judges the registered build whether the walk built it or took it.

Issue 649. novox/hq ADR 0350.
mesh/delivery-group group feat/350-one-build-per-change checking: composed check out of date: novox/mesh-controller@cd49b50c4075 was judged against trunk bff5b…
A merge built every moved module a second time although its check had judged
the same tree (issue 649). The check now builds into the scratch namespace
under a reuse key (source fingerprint plus the builder's own digest), and the
walk of the trunk commit copies a build of the same key by digest instead of
building, saying per module why when it cannot (novox/hq ADR 0350).

mesh/merge-gate head 5c606fd1d48b merged into trunk 372faebf2824 — pass: builds build-agent, mesh-controller → ace, g14, novox, shanks; no bus step; every …
The artifact store takes writes from anything on its network, so a record
planted under another merge's key could have been registered: the walk now
takes a scratch build only when the build seat's own verdict for one of its
pull requests names its key and digests. Deleting by digest also took builds
another check shared (review of #311; novox/hq ADR 0350).

Builds novox/hq ADR 0350 (accepted by the operator) for issue 649: a merge built every moved module again although its check had judged the same merged tree.
What it does
CheckRequest.Builds): a module of the repository checked from the merge the check made, a module standing on one from its own repository at its branch. After the check has judged and not failed, the builder takes each module's reuse key first and builds only keyed modules intoscratch/<module>/<artifact>, chaining the scratch builds as later tiers' bases. The key is the source fingerprint's parts (module tree, context trees, bases and toolchains by digest; issue 280), the builder's own executable digest, and any upstream image (refused when named by tag). Each build is kept as a record underscratch/<module>:r1-<key>and listed in the verdict (check-outcome.built,checked.built). A check builds with no package-registry credential, since the code is not yet approved. A module reading the repository through a context, one the merge deletes, or one without a key is not built, and neither is anything in a later tier.reuse(never a check, a dry run,build --ref,rebuildorreplay). On a commit on its trunk, the builder takes the key by the same steps a build takes and stops before anything is built. When a check build has the key, the builder copies it by digest into<module>/<artifact>, mounting blobs, and answers with that build, building nothing.PlanModule.madeholds "reused from the check of owner/repo#n at head H (merged into trunk T): artifact digest, …" or "built: ". It travels inplan-moved. A build seat from before this says neither, and that is what is kept.forget-checksdoes it for a pull request closed unmerged; the delivery owner asks it (mesh-catalog PR). Removal is done through the artifact store, ascollectdoes, and not through a new build-seat verb. A new build-seat verb would make the catalogue's build-agent manifest and the controller depend on each other's release.Tests (they fail on main: the types and functions do not exist there)

forget-checks) follows it. An old builder ignoresbuildsandreuseand builds as today. The walk then says "built: the build seat did not say … (it predates ADR 0350)". The first merge after the builder rolls rebuilds once, because the builder's version is in the key.Issue 649. novox/hq ADR 0350.
