Issue 1585, R1: fresh holds the digests a take-in newly wrote (a new module, a changed manifest); a registered or
taken-in module is judged too; a start pass that fails is judged again at the next message heard, no timer.
R2: a module's verdict, problems and warnings are carried while its digest stands and are no part of the compare.
R3: the checker judges the trunk beside the change and fails on every problem the change case adds, an untouched
manifest's included. R4: the judge reads the indexer's kept predefined keys, or the catalogue member's when it
changes them. A log line names a package no held module publishes. Every module pins mesh-sdk 62cddf4.

Issue 1585: the indexer keeps an accepted manifest accepted when a stricter judge re-judges it, its problems as
warnings carried in its value; a merge's new manifests are judged in full. The watchman raises manifest-outgrown as
a warning until mended. The checker fails only on a manifest the change adds or changes and names the rest as
warnings. Every module pins mesh-sdk 19c2042.

Issue 1585, S6-S8: 192 judge-only declarations (the strict parser, every manifest problem function, the tables)
moved whole by an AST mover, methods becoming functions; 163 helpers composition keeps too are copied. 245 tests
move with them, reading the captured catalogue through a copy of internal/beside. judge.WithTemplatesFrom and
ReadTreeManifest judge what mesh-sdk's readers now only fill. mesh-delivery's own tests decode. Pinned to mesh-sdk 25a2cec.

Issue 1585, S12: grants, builder and checker read with catalogue.Decode and grants holds a module the indexer
refused; the checker asks the Go build seat to run mesh-judge, built at mesh-delivery's trunk or at the group's
mesh-delivery head when it changes the judge, over the catalogue as the change leaves it, and fails on a refusal.

The only change taken in is ADR 0577's: each node's engine writes its own keys of mesh-host_data,
and each node's disk-load reads its own node's keys alone. Without it the engine's writes are
refused and disk-load measures nothing.

The grants part composes every membership and runtime grant from
mesh-sdk, which now lists a held seat's events for its holder, so the
self-check the tool runner carries can say `checked`. Pinned to that
mesh-sdk head.
Quick vs thorough: quick, these fixes for L4's take-over now; the
thorough fix (research 032 / ADR 0240's health view extension) is
decided later.

The holder writes a node's changed module keys, then its node key as the commit by compare-and-set at
the revision the proposal was laid over, then the placement.<node> mirror for readers not yet delivered.
Every reader assembles through mesh-sdk's PlacementKeys, which reads both forms.

The grants part pinned eff81f1, before the verb composition (6bce1fb): the bus refused every engine's subscription to it and each engine reopened its link every few minutes. With 748543c a verb added to the node-engine seat needs no grants release first. Group with mesh-sdk fix/engine-seat-any-verb.

Review of 09791f5: with the indexer's modules bucket readable but empty, nothing was read, so
nothing was found and both phases passed; the operator could have handed the lease away while an
unkept read still stood. Judge now refuses when no manifest was read, or fewer of the indexer's
modules than it holds (a provided manifest does not count for a missing one), saying why; a
missing or refused manifest is named as before, now under test.
The controller's grants leave the keep list: ADR 0571 §9 has no manifest read them from L7's
delivery, changing ADR 0567 §10 and ADR 0547 §5's shadow compare, so the assigner's and the grants
part's reads are refused, and a refusal names the record that ended a declaration where one does.
Quick fix: the counts in the grants part's Judge, as here. Thorough fix: the same coverage rule
in the shared mesh-sdk derivation once the keep list moves there; the quick one stands until then.
The operator asked to remove the controller by finishing its hand-over; no tool said who holds
the lease, which manifests still read, invoke or consume mesh-controller, or whether the lease
write's check (ADR 0571 §13) would pass. grants_lease_check answers all three from bus state on
the grants part, which already reads the lease, every manifest at the indexer's trunk and the
bus's streams: the holder and what follows from it, every dependency with the record on the
named keep list that keeps it, the controller's streams and buckets someone consumes, and the
check run dry at the write (the three kept to it alone) and before its delivery, with reasons.
Quick fix: the judgement and the keep list in the grants part, as here.
Thorough fix: the keep list and the dependency derivation in mesh-sdk, shared by this tool and
the §13 manifest tests in mesh-catalog, mesh-delivery and mesh-tools. Chosen quick: the tests do
not exist yet and an sdk move needs a group; the move is named for the lead.
The assigner added "why" to every assign, unassign, pin and unpin since 2026-10-28; the controller's seat contract
takes no such argument, so it refused each one and did nothing. No approved placement reached the controller's
assignments, no bus account was minted for a newly placed module, and the refusal was only a journal line.
Quick fix: drop "why" from ControllerCalls. Thorough fix: a contract test that every argument ControllerCalls gives,
for every verb, is declared (and every required one given) in catalogue.ControllerVerbs, plus an urgent condition per
pair whose call was refused (verb, node, module, the controller's words), cleared when a later call is answered or the
two sources agree. Chosen: both here; a caller-side check of arguments against the seat's contract for every seat
call belongs in mesh-sdk and is noted for the lead. The warrant stays in the assigner's own record (placement-changed,
the hand-act log).
Every module pins mesh-sdk eff81f1220e2 (in review).
The grants part repeated the composer's entry lines to keep a refused principal's grants of the list in force;
mesh-sdk 61b67d6 exports them as buscompose.AccountsEntry, so the copy goes. The byte-for-byte test of the kept
entry still passes. Needs the mesh-sdk pin at 61b67d6 or later.
mesh-wireguard is provided by the mesh itself (mesh-sdk delivery.ProvidedByMesh): no repository builds it, so the
indexer holds no fingerprint of it and the assigner never wants it by one; the controller composes it with the
node's own. The grants part named it "no fingerprint of the new form: the indexer holds no value of it" on every
pass, a warning nothing could clear (sweep 2026-10-30 item 6).
Quick fix: drop mesh-wireguard by name from the missing list.
Thorough fix, chosen as cheap and covering every module the mesh may provide later: MissingGrants passes over any
module ProvidedByMesh names. The controller says the same of it in mesh-control (its grants and switch lines).
Met twice on 2026-10-30 (the engine's acts, then mesh-host_health): the composer refused one principal as a
second writer, and that refusal ended the whole composition, so the list in force stood for every principal
while changes piled up; the next list that composed moved 52 users at once (16:37:28).
Quick fix: leave the refused principal out and write the rest (locks that principal out of the bus).
Thorough fix, chosen because the kind was met twice and it hides every other change: ComposeEach composes each
principal on its own; a refused one keeps its grants of the list in force (the part's sealed grants), written as
the composer writes an entry; one the list in force does not carry stays out; a list that would drop one the
list in force carries, whose grants were not kept, is held, said. The refusal is raised as the warning
mesh-grants.principal-refused, by name and why, cleared once it composes, and listed in the pass
(principals_refused). The entry renderer mirrors buscompose.ComposeAccounts's lines and is pinned to them by the
test (the entry the bus loaded is written back byte for byte); it belongs in mesh-sdk as an exported entry writer.
The sealed-grants value held every user of the last two lists in one value; at 61 users it was refused with
"message size exceeds maximum" (JetStream 10054, 16:37 and 16:55 on 2026-10-30), so the permissions of the
list in force were never kept and a grant judged against them waited.
Quick fix: keep only the newest list in the one value (halves it; it still grows with the mesh).
Thorough fix, chosen because the value grows with every placed module and the kind was met twice: one key per
user and list, sealed-grants.<digest hex>.<user>, and an index sealed-lists naming the kept lists and their users,
written only once every user's key is there; the third list's keys are taken away, and the old one-value key read
as a fallback and removed. mesh-sdk's kvlimit guard (7b02f63) refuses an oversized value before the put through
process.State.Put, which the part's own store (cmd/mesh-grants ownStore.Put) writes through once pinned.

Second meeting of the engine-state-in-runner kind; thorough: the runner
never carries the engine module. The live placement names mesh-host,
and with its health state the runner was a second writer, so every
grant since 13:54 was held back. The seeded-placement test now carries
the engine's manifest and refuses any runner write of mesh-host_*.
The state memberships held the part's wrapper ({node, module, digest, membership, published, retired}) while every
reader takes the bare membership the assignments stream carries: novox's tool runner decoded an empty one and served
no tool. The part now writes membership.EncodeGrantsMembership of a membership published or unchanged, never one held
back. The pass record moves to the pass the part already keeps (user-list at pass): published or why not was there, the
retired seat verbs are added as Result.Retired; grants_membership reads both, so no new state is declared.
Issue 774 (the bus login list, L3). Quick fix: marshal m.Membership here. Thorough, chosen: one codec in mesh-sdk the
writer and the tool runner share, because a hand-built fixture agreed with the mistake. Pins mesh-sdk at the head of
its fix/memberships-shape.
mesh/delivery-group group feat/774-vault-mints-l2 checking: the checker's verdict is out of date: novox/mesh-sdk@8eafc0c5ce3c was judged on trunk 53f26493697e,…
Why: after the lease write the assignments are frozen, so the part's union kept a module the catalogue takes off a node
with its account, grant, membership and user-list entry. The lease is read as the assigner reads it
(buscompose.LeaseHandedAway); before it, or with no placement on the bus, the union stands. The read stays declared until
the first change after the lease write, named in modules/assignments-readers with the assigner; a TestGrants row refuses
any other module.json that reads mesh-controller.assignments, as mesh-catalog's checks/placement does for the catalogue.
Why: the controller's grant writer skipped link2pay, snake, f1-circuits and txt-game in silence (it read the fingerprint by
their unchanged commit, a build of the old form) and the take-in said 'its grant written'. The part already reads the
fingerprint from the indexer's value, so those four are granted at their src2 done key's fingerprint; a row proves it.
What a pass leaves without a grant (no fingerprint of the new form with the indexer's none2, a refused manifest, no
hashed account) is now said rather than passed over. Quick: log it. Thorough (chosen): the pass's Missing, shown by the
grants tool, and a warning condition raised and cleared on change, as consumer-differs is.
Why: the assigner switches its grants source when the controller's lease is handed away; until then the written keys are compared with the controller's, so the switch rests on a measured equality. Needs the group's mesh-sdk pin (PartGrantKey) before it builds.
