The operator, 2026-10-25: only if a module has a new version in commit x is a new value written naming commit x. A merge
wrote every module of the repository at the new commit, fingerprint unchanged (about 186 keys per mesh-catalog merge), and
the controller's take-in took each in again: twice tonight it flooded. Now a merge that gives a module the value it holds
but for the commit writes nothing, and the value keeps the commit its fingerprint first appeared at. The kind: a write
that differs only in where it was computed. The other instance, a source revision re-stamping Src on every module at its
repository's head after any merge anywhere, now stamps Src once. The trunk head stays the gate's source.main.

On 2026-10-25 20:56 assigning mesh-build-node to ace again brought ace's report of 2026-10-23 (v26.12.0) back into the
agreement before the module ran there; the indexer blanked every module's fingerprint to "builders disagree" and the
controller's take-in refused modules already computed and built.
- The toolchain gate (indexer, builder, checker; still one file in three) leaves a report out, said once, until its node
writes it since its current assignment: the assignment's own time, or the revision that opened it.
- The indexer keeps a module's held fingerprint while a language has no agreed toolchain, when its kept inputs with the
toolchains it was computed with give it again; only a new fingerprint (a merge, a base, an agreed toolchain moved)
needs the agreement.
The indexer holds no published list of predefined keys; each key a value names is taken as the value declares it.
No fingerprint input comes from the list: the gate and the controller still judge the value.
