The seat mesh-wants' definition gains the state asks (template state, history 5, view), its key
forms the seven kinds' keys as the assigner's asks package writes them (hold, restore, backup,
record, outside, revert, assignments) and its value the ask as the assigner composes it; its
wants gains view. The assigner's first-view tool asks replaces assigner_read_asks, its callers
the teller and the status view; the status view joins the callers of wants and assignments.
The teller follows the asks by seat:mesh-wants.views.asks and invokes nothing of the assigner's.
The status view's part waits on a question (its tools ask assigner_read_wants).

The grants part grants a seat verb only to a module that names it in invokes (GR8), so a call missing from a
manifest is refused live. Listed every module's seat-verb calls in code (constant clients, seatlist.HolderOf,
operatorask, buildrun's drops and puts) against its invokes: the teller asks who holds operator-channel
(operatorask.Bucket) and the checker drops asks of the image build seat. Every asker of a build seat names the
queues it asks as seat:<seat>.accept.<queue> (A-231): the runner check and delivery, the assigner check, the
builder delivery, the checker check and recheck; the indexer had its entry. The validator judges that form
through mesh-sdk's catalogue.QueueInvoke against the kinds the seat accepts.
mesh-grants: a consumed seat view whose seat has no holder on record grants nothing instead of refusing the whole
module (TestGrants); TestCallersAndWhyRefused and TestSentStoresRead take §610's class defaults.

Each asks the seat mesh-broker's show for its finding-events entry (process.Binding, started without waiting), passes it
as the writer's Bindings and hears the seat's recreated and dropped; the watchman's one handler of the seats' events
hands those two to the binding, since a message has one taker. The teller, view and watchman manifests gain the invoke
seat:mesh-broker.show and consume mesh-broker.recreated and dropped. The forge bridge's and the watchman's whole tests
answer show and read the finding-written under the binding's subject.

The merge-ask path goes whole with the Approve per merge: the reads of
mesh-delivery-gate.asks and mesh-delivery-view.answers, OnAsk, OnAskGone, the
gate branches of Answer and the room list, and the merge words. The teller
follows the view's answers through view_read_answers and views.answers, says
its state answers as views.answers from its state teller-marks, and serves the
read tool teller_read_answers. The room list stays for the assigner's asks
(the lead's answer). viewstate gains the names the view's own commit gives it
(the same hunk, so the two merge cleanly).

recovery-merged gains module and branch, and a forge-made record-opened gains repository, pull, commit and branch (seat
definition, generated Go and TypeScript, fixtures); the teller hears both events and tells them through operator-channel's notify
with every-channel, in the operator's words of §522.

The teller hears pipeline-ended, tells each end that carries widens through the seat operator-channel's notify with every-channel,
one line per entry, and keeps the last commit said per module and watched branch in its state widens-said (read by
teller_widens_said); registration-changed drops the branches no longer watched.

Each drops its old state findings and stream <module>-findings for the requires entries findings (state, history kept) and finding-events (the three finding events, 7 days, 16 MiB); none is a foundation part (§529, A-30).

An assigner ask that lapsed or was cancelled at the operator channel while its key still stands
was never asked again: the router drops a second ask under an id it keeps, and the assigner
only writes a new asking when the key is absent (note 151: the nats yes on novox and three
backup asks). The teller now says ask-ended (its module event, emits; body in its own package
tellerevents, ADR 0634 §1) when the router records such an end, and when a watch hands it a key
standing under an asking that ended so, which covers its start and the asks standing now. A
refusal, a replacement, an answer and an end by hand (teller_end_ask, kept in its own record)
are not said.

mesh-delivery's sdk/firstview moved whole into mesh-sdk go/views (J3): the builder, checker, watchman, teller and view
follow each owner's state with views.ProcessReader.Follow(owner, state, tool, stream), naming the owner's read tool as
their invokes name it and its views family as the owner's manifest's `streams` names it ("indexer-views",
"assigner-views"); a refused Follow stops the start. Their beds serve the owners with viewstest.Serve and grant with
viewstest.Grants by the same names. The view's tools ask the owners' read tools by their literal names. The assigner
names its own views family and the indexer's itself (views.AssignerStream and IndexerStream are gone).
Every views.StatusTools call takes handacts.Recorder{Ask: stdio.Ask}: a first view asked again by hand is a hand act,
recorded through seat:mesh-hand-acts.hand-act, which the builder's, checker's, watchman's, teller's and view's
manifests now invoke (a row in each manifest test, each failed first).
Row (A2j's written-time switch): TestRunNeedsItsCredential "a want stood since the assigner's bus wrote it": the
watchman's want time (createdOr) is the time the owner's bus wrote the key, through ProcessReader's first view (failed
with createdOr ignoring the entry's time). sdk/go.mod: nats.go is indirect now.

ADR 0615 §1: sdk/firstview is a process's picture of an owner's state, read as the bucket it
replaces (Get, Keys, Watch; every write refused), asked through <owner>.<short>_read_<state> with
values and kept from the owner's views family; firstviewtest serves an owner in a whole-module test.
The teller declares invokes assigner_read_asks, consumes views.asks, states first-views and findings,
and the tools teller_first_views and teller_first_view_again.

mesh/check checking 17abe6af32ce on af0fd83aec09 | novox/mesh-delivery#124 in group fix/merge-ask-ends-on-merge
On 2026-10-31 two merge asks of pull requests merged by another path held two of
the router's three places for the teller and a placement ask was refused for want
of room. The gate's fix ends such asks by itself; this tool is the recovery for any
ask that still outlives its question: it cancels the open ask at the router, or
drops one waiting for room, by its router id or its key, and logs who and why. The
tools bundle asks through the teller's new state ends, as indexer_take_in does.
