mesh/check being carried to 34a607a1f5cf on a62276bcafad | from 15d28ddf5bd3
The invoke was left out (mesh-delivery #142) only while the indexer built before the verb ran; the new indexer and the
node-engine's compose-candidate run on every machine since 22:57, so a check composes on the machines again instead of
passing with a warning (ADR 0593 §7, §9).

The check of 2026-11-02 22:35 on a loaded shanks failed two buildrun tests on wall-clock bounds of 60 ms, the
second failure of this kind tonight (the first: mesh-sdk's busretry tests, f02f142).
Quick fix: give the two buildrun asker tests bounds of seconds.
Thorough fix (chosen, because the kind recurs across every module of the repository): every test that raced a
wall clock now waits on an event, steps a clock it is given, or has a bound only a failing test reaches.
- buildrun asker tests: the steps' own times stand for the clock (bound an hour, starts and phases written in the
past), no goroutine paces phases with sleeps.
- builder: the decline bound reads Builder.Now; the decline test steps it; the stream-wait test waits for five
check reads instead of 100 ms.
- checker: the lost-ask try bounds an untaken ask at 200 ms only where that is what ends it; the program says when a
merge turn changes, and the integration test waits on that line instead of 300 ms.
- teller: the bed makes the teller's own ends bucket (a 10 s stall at start the tests raced by 0.5 s), waits for its
warrant subscription instead of 500 ms pauses, and the package-level now is restored with t.Cleanup.
- watchman: the recount, run in its own goroutine, is waited for instead of 10 ms.
- polls of 2-5 s become 10 s (unit) and 20 s (integration).
Under a throttled cgroup (half a core shared with two busy loops) beside the node-engine's suite, the buildrun
tests failed 5 of 20 runs before and passed 30 of 30 after; no test added.

The running indexer, built before the verb existed, refuses a manifest invoking it, and one refused manifest holds the
grants part's whole list: no new grant is written, so the new indexer never moves (issue 1126, 2026-11-02). Quick fix,
chosen because the thorough one (the grants part keeps only the refused module's grants) cannot be delivered while the
list is held; a follow-up adds the invoke back. Until then a check's compose-candidate call is refused on the bus and the
node is named silent: the check passes with that warning (engines.go, ADR 0593 §9).

mesh/check failed: mesh-build-go: the indexer's judge at the group's mesh-delivery head 3b3b096be8cdf8f49246ed3961ece3eb5c349d62 refuses the manifest …
The composer command moved to the node-engine (ADR 0593 §7); a catalogue check had only mesh-sdk beside it. Pin the build runner to the catalogue head whose composer test skips aloud until then.

Review finding 5: the repository's unit tests rose from 810 to 814 (over the 500 budget); eleven test
functions of buildrun become two, so the count is 805.

Review finding 4: an unreadable placement gave no nodes, so nobody was asked and the check passed. The
placement read now answers its error, and the verdict says the composition was not made and why.

Review finding 3 (ADR 0593 §9): only a node that does not answer may let a check pass with a warning; a
sandbox composer that cannot be built or run was filed with the silent nodes. It now fails that node's
composition, naming the head.

Review finding 2 (ADR 0593 §2, §3): after the release no build has reported imports, and a module that
replaces a mesh Go module of its own repository by a directory had no go.sum line and no version for it,
so a change of buildstep or buildrun alone moved no importer. The indexer now reads go.mod's directory
replaces, publishes those modules, and puts their content digest on the version line; builds are pinned
to the other repositories' versions alone.

ADR 0593 §7: OffersIssuedOutside, Resolution and UnknownFieldReason left mesh-sdk with the composition,
so the judge's tests keep its own reading and refusals and those proofs go to the node-engine's tests.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
ADR 0593 §7: the catalogue's composition (Resolution.Compose and Declaration, LeftOut, Resolve,
JudgeSettings, ApplySettings, HeldTemplateProblem) leaves mesh-sdk for the node-engine, so the judge's
tests keep only its verdicts and refusals; each proof that a manifest composes goes to the node-engine's
tests, and the helpers only those proofs used go with them.

The named tree is the indexer's computation (ADR 0593 §2): the builder reads it
from the module's value, so its test gives one as the indexer would write it.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
ADR 0593 §7: compose and frombus left mesh-sdk for the node-engine, so how a composer holds a refused
module is the engine's to test; the indexer's test keeps proving the verdicts and refusals it writes.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
ADR 0593 §1: the step runner left mesh-sdk for mesh-build-go's buildstep package, so the examiner's unit
tests and the module's integration test require it by the group's version (as the builder does) rather
than an imitation of its plan and kept-verdict rules.
