Every machine still runs its own dnsmasq, so each bound ${bound:wildcard-resolution:address} to itself, although mesh-dns-resolver is held (and pinned) on novox. The local-provider branch of Resolve never consulted the seat holder or a pin. Now, for a mesh-wide provision, a pin naming another machine or the seat's holder on another machine wins.

Also carries #58 (the resolver test expects docker to write live-restore), so the controller rolls out once.

Tests: three new resolve tests (fail without the fix); full suite + vet pass against current mesh-catalog main.

The catalogue moves daemon.json's live-restore and the reload from resolv-conf to the docker
module, so no module writes another software's configuration. The test composes docker beside
the resolver modules and refuses resolv-conf writing the runtime's file.
A mesh-wide provision a machine could answer itself was bound to the local provider, with the
seat's holder and any pin consulted only for a provider on another machine. With every machine
still running its own resolver, each bound its resolver configuration to itself while the mesh's
one resolver was held and pinned elsewhere.

Delivery novox/mesh-controller@4b382ceffdc4 — held since 2026-10-06T23:05:28Z

Held for a person: merged without a passing check: only a person decides that it goes on — mesh-delivery.release with why lets it go on.

Delivery plan — builds build-agent, mesh-controller, route-proxy → ace, g14, novox, shanks; no bus step

  • tier 0: mesh-controller
  • tier 1: build-agent
  • tier 2: route-proxy
  • ace: receives build-agent, route-proxy
  • g14: receives build-agent
  • novox: receives mesh-controller, build-agent, route-proxy
  • shanks: receives build-agent
  • build-agent keeps data (ADR 0233): what it holds is backed up before it moves
  • route-proxy provides route: its consumers are sent again after it
  • route-proxy keeps data (ADR 0233): what it holds is backed up before it moves

Transitions

  • 2026-10-06 23:05 (new) → proposed (announced): novox/mesh-controller#59 merged; its head was not heard by this owner, so it is made from the forge's word
  • 2026-10-06 23:05 proposed → held (merged-unchecked): merged without a passing check — a verdict known with it is taken first: only a person decides that it goes on

The commit's note under refs/notes/mesh-plan keeps every transition: git log --notes=mesh-plan.
