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.
The part composed every membership with no root-free input, so telegram's verified-sender was dropped and the membership held as a shadow
difference. It now asks mesh-controller.root-free for the machines a composition needs, per pass, failing closed and said once, and wakes
on root-not-free condition-raised and condition-cleared.

The part reads seats, buckets, logs and streams, never a config value, and
the merge gate already judged the fallbacks; reading the controller's
predefined mirror would tie the part to the leaving controller (ADR 0547
clause 1). ParseManifestForInputs takes a fallback as it declares itself.
Issue: 1945
A manifest falling back to a predefined key (claude-code, dunst) was parsed
with no list, refused silently, and its module counted as placed nowhere, so
three memberships would lose claude-code's reach addresses and were held back.
The part now reads the list the controller mirrors (mesh-controller.predefined,
key list), follows it, and lists every manifest it cannot read in its gaps,
its pass (refused) and its log.

A module's new state reached the bus only when the controller started (issue 1790, met three
times: puts, queues, mesh-vault's bus-accounts). The operator allowed one more grant in the
controller's composer on 2026-10-26 08:54, creation only: the part's process now creates each
bucket, log or stream a placed module's manifest declares and the bus lacks, with the same
configuration the controller asserts (mesh-sdk BucketStreamConfig, Log.Config,
ModuleStreamConfig), on the event that brought the manifest, never on a timer. It says asserted
and logs one line per module; a stream the bus holds is never updated or deleted, its difference
only said; a create refused is said and tried at the next event; one created at this manifest
and gone since is made again only by hand. grants_assert asks the process to do the same for one
module now. The user list, the grants and any change to a held stream stay in shadow. mesh-sdk
moves to fix/1790-grants-create-buckets, whose composer grants this, so the shadow list is
composed as the controller's.
Issue: 1790
The guard that holds back a membership losing anything held back five since 01:24: the frozen
controller's memberships still serve the delivery seat's mark-ready, which mesh-sdk d506f21
retired on purpose (ADR 0421), so every membership composed with today's seat catalogue looked
like a loss. A seat verb the catalogue defines no longer is now dropped from the comparison and
named in the pass (retired); any other loss, a module's own seat's verbs included, is still
refused. The log named only the first held membership: it now says each one, with what it would
lose, whenever the set changes, and grants_membership with neither node nor module lists them.
Issue: 1945
Composed without a root-free judgement, a membership would drop a kind's verified-sender and the
operator's channel approvals would stop being honoured; any loss now stays a shadow difference,
named. A tool no longer waits on a pass's round trip. compose-now says the controller serves no
verb to write a module's grant again.
Since release 6 nobody publishes memberships, so a module placed since cannot serve its seat
or reach a new state (the operator, 2026-10-25 22:31). The part publishes each membership on
the assignments stream only when it differs from the one last published, composes from the
manifest the wanted build names, and says a refused publish and tries again at the next event.
Pins mesh-sdk 881da7f, whose composer grants mesh-grants that publish.
The grants part must compose with the controller's own composer before it can take over the
list; in shadow it proves the two agree, names every input the bus does not carry yet, and
takes no effect. It claims no seat (mesh-sdk's seat list does not name mesh-grants for the
running composer), serves module tools, and keeps running when a read or write is refused.
