jschoubben 17f7cb0d9c A build says what it does on the bus, as it happens (novox/hq ADR 0157)
The build-machine seat emits `started` and `log.<build id>` beside `built`. Every line the builder
speaks — each step, each command with its duration, and on failure the command's own output — goes
to stderr as before and onto the bus under the build's id, one subject per build, kept a week in
EVENTS with every other event. `builds --log <id>` reads it back from the stream with a consumer
that is gone when the reading is done, on the command line and as the controller's seat verb;
`builds` lists each build's id and `build` says the id it asked with.

Lines are core publishes with a sequence number, so a build is not slowed by an ack per line and a
gap is visible; `started` and `built` are awaited into the stream. The seat protocol widens
additively at the controller's next start; the holder's grant follows on the broker node's next
composition.

// A Verb is one tool a role serves: its name, what it does, and the schema of its arguments and of
// its answer (novox/hq ADR 0132, design 33 §2).
//
// **A name alone is not callable by something that has never seen the mesh before**, which is the
// whole population a tool surface exists for. So a seat's protocol carries the definition, in the
// form an agent protocol already uses — a JSON schema for the input — so nothing translates between
// a seat's idea of an argument and the caller's.
//
// A manifest may still write a bare verb name (`"serves": ["price"]`); that is a Verb with only a
// name, and the module's runtime answers `tools` with the rest. The two forms read into one type so
// nothing downstream cares which was written.
