A-163: the asker in `accept.<queue>.<asker>` is the asking seat's name (mesh-pipeline-runner,
mesh-catalog, mesh-wants, mesh-builds), never a nickname: the builder asks as mesh-builds (was
"builder"), the indexer's validation as mesh-catalog (was "indexer"), the assigner's runs as
mesh-wants (was "assigner"), the runner's steps on `accept.check.mesh-pipeline-runner` and
`accept.delivery.mesh-pipeline-runner` (were `accept.check.step` and `accept.delivery.step`, where
the holder read `step` as the asker). An asker naming none (the checker) asks on main's subject
(A-184). A build seat's queues are delivery, check and recheck alone (A-170, A-184): buildstep's
AskKinds holds no step, a holder takes a step from check or delivery, and the grants part makes a
worker per queue, never per kind. A holder keys a named ask's step `<asker>.<node>.<id>` and main's
`<node>.<id>` (§481, §483); readers watch their own name's keys. The composition step's step-progress
names the one caller mesh-wants' definition lists for step, read from the seat list (A-294).

sayHeld stays in G's judgeOverHeld, after the written-verdict branch, for a fresh trunk manifest
whose verdict the pass did not write. The test's merged manifest is written as the candidate's
own text ("2.0"): the join's manifest digest is of the raw bytes (meshcatalogclient

A pull request's candidate is judged before its merge and its verdict written, said nowhere. At the merge the
digest becomes the module's trunk manifest, but the merge's judging pass finds the same verdict, writes nothing
and so said nothing: the bus module never heard the new manifest, and the grants part, which follows the
verdicts on manifest-accepted, held the module as having no verdict and wrote no grant for its new fingerprint
(claude-licence-manager, three times on 2026-11-12). The merge's pass now says a fresh trunk manifest's accepted
verdict from the verdict held, with its revision.
Builds: design 25 bus-state §1, §12.2 (the indexer says manifest-accepted for every newly accepted manifest; the
grants part follows the verdicts on it)
Builds: design 25 bus-state L1 (hq ff30ac16, the lead's answer: a merged candidate's manifest is newly accepted).
An asker names the queue it asks as seat:<seat>.accept.<queue> (A-231); no module's serves lists that form, so
graph.Servers matched nothing and the indexer drew no served-verb edge from a build seat's holders to the asker.
Servers now reads the form through mesh-sdk's catalogue.QueueInvoke and answers every module serving a verb of the
seat; the kind-6 edge asks the module graph's Servers, the one rule, instead of a match of its own.

The program puts the validation's run ask on node-build-go's check queue
under its own asker and hears its end on step-ended; the manifest invokes
seat:node-build-go.accept.check. The revision validated is the branch its
merges landed on (the merged message's base, else the trunk), never the pull
request's branch. take-in.pending may name a refusal or why the revision
could not validate instead of the build it waits for. The whole case runs a
stand-in build seat: an accepted revision is taken in as before, by one ask
whose job names the indexer entry's repository, path and the revision's
head and no heads; a merge whose changed manifest gains a problem stays
pending, refused naming it.

The tool (class act) records its hand act through mesh-hand-acts first and

The take-in puts the validation's run ask and ends there; the revision's
newest pending value keeps validation {ask, asked, input, seq, try,
failed, accepted}. The build seat's step-ended of that ask resumes it:
accepted takes it in as before and is never asked again, refused keeps it
pending with refused, and an end that could not validate keeps it pending
with failed, said in take-in.pending, never a refusal and never passed.
An end of a replaced ask is dropped, written in the journal. The answer
is read from the event's own output or output object. The wiring in the
indexer's program comes with the whole-module case (IX5).

The seat whose definition delivers a requirement, among those the entry's
catalog graph revision names, is resolved first: its holder from the
placements' holds, as seat-holders keeps them; a delivering seat no
placement holds holds the entry, naming the seat. A hold now names the
requirement, the seat and each candidate {node, module}; an optional
requirement nothing provides is left absent. The catalog entry gains
contributes, filled by the indexer, and requires names every requirement
as Wants lists them, optional ones included (the module graph and the
assigner's halves leave the optional ones out by the entry's manifest).
A contributed requirement gives a contribution edge to the same provider.

one pull per member, its repository and directory from its registration, its manifest and fingerprint from a take-in
of its commit read through the seat git, over its branch's revision view when its registration watches the branch,
else the trunk's. The state runs keeps each run's members and ended modules, so a restart between two ends still
drops the candidate. The try candidates, the checker's checks consumer, checker_tries and the three try tools go;
