A node composing a consumer reads the served keys of the trunk's manifest of a
provider elsewhere, which may serve a setting the build it runs does not.
mesh-grants declares each module's served settings (catalogue.ServedSettings), so
the user list grants every other node's agent those keys of mesh-config_resolved
alone: shanks then settles what novox's mailu serves. The assigner's check of
every node reads no build, archive or served value: it composes as before.

After the placement seed's revert the rules that hold a want (a hold, rules 3 and 5) kept g14's and shanks's Self wants: the held branch copied them whole, and the rule branch wrote a want naming no composition, which EncodeWant refuses. Module.Self, set once from the placement, is now the one source, and every want the rules write or keep is derived from it: an unplaced node's kept want names the controller's composition of the same fingerprint, asked as any record move; with none, it stays and rule 7 says why.

Review of 50c4674: the bar on new wants naming F while a node fails it alone
also caught a node that runs F with no live want, the issue-1945 recovery path:
it went on neither list and its node-engine gave the module up. The bar now
holds only a node that neither wants nor runs F.
ADR 0557 version 9: a failure that is one node's holds nothing and sets nothing
back, but the version reaches no node that does not want it yet until it is
over. A node whose want does not name F gets no new want naming it (rule 2, in
words naming the failing nodes); wants already written stay.
Review round 2 of 16e4e61: gating the first-pass clear on a failed have left a
condition an earlier process raised standing for good once its node recovered
while no assigner watched. The first pass now clears it for every module and
every node the presence bucket knows, a quiet clear at the router for one that
is not open.
Review of 2ee7589: a node that sleeps after running F healthy kept its stale
have as a witness, so F stayed unheld while it failed on the online nodes; and a
failed-alone condition was never cleared once its node left the module.
A witness must now be online by the watchman's presence. F failing on a second
node is no longer one node's failure: the hold and the set-back stand (ADR 0557
version 6, §2). A remembered failed-alone key whose node is no longer one of the
module's nodes is cleared once; the first pass after a start clears it for every
node the presence bucket knows, for a module with a failed have.
On ace, 2026-10-26 21:19, a newly assigned mesh-build-node failed its first
health check at 8a98386f (later 31be2f24) while shanks, g14 and novox had run it
healthy for an hour. Being first by name, ace was the canary, and the assigner
held the version and moved the three healthy nodes back.
A failed health check of the newest fingerprint now holds it only when no other
node's have names it healthy (ADR 0557 §2 keeps ADR 0429 §6's hold and set-back
for that case). Otherwise the failure is that node's (ADR 0557 §1): nothing is
held or set back, the node keeps its want, and the assigner raises the node's
condition once (failed-alone.<node>.<module>), naming the node, the module, the
fingerprint and the have's words, and clears it once when it ends; the first
pass after a start clears what a previous process may have raised.

One commit for the branch feat/1126-nodes-compose of mesh-delivery: its 16 commits squashed so its history does not carry the 17.8 MB compiled mesh-delivery-assigner a commit added by mistake and a later one removed (issue 1577). The tree equals the former head ff6c038d. The operator allowed this rewrite of the feature branch on 2026-10-26.
Review round 1: while an operator's put runs through its steps it owns the want, so the clear said
'the node does not run it' of a node that runs the bus.
A bus whose move only the operator's put may make (ADR 0546 §8) got no want and nothing in the outcome:
nats on novox, running an old-form build, was on no list while the pass cleared its condition and logged
that it had a want again. The bar now names its holding, puts a node without a live want on neither list
(its condition needs the operator: assigner_put), and a neither condition is cleared as 'has a want again'
only when a live want exists.

The held record is the memory that a fingerprint failed (ADR 0408 section 4); a revert returns the
trunk to exactly it, and without the key rule 3 would move the canary onto the failed build with
nothing asked. A stale hold ask now clears only the condition (raised again on a revisit), and the
hold is asked again under a new asking. Also read the single want key for a record ask.
Review round 1: a record ask is about the composition of any fingerprint a node may still want
(trunk, want, have), not only the trunk's, so deleting it looped with the wants rule that asks it
again and the operator was never asked. It is now stale only when the module left the trunk or no
read composition of those fingerprints has its digest. A hold or restore ask taken away as stale
also takes its held record and clears its held condition.
An ask outlived its fingerprint: a lift left the restore asks of its fingerprint on every node,
and no pass removed an ask of a fingerprint that is no longer the module's trunk fingerprint,
so the operator kept being asked about a module that runs the trunk healthy. Each pass now
takes those asks away (the teller then withdraws the router ask), and a lift takes the restore
asks of its fingerprint. Nothing is taken away while the trunk or a composition is unread.

The open helpers were copied into seven parts; code shared between
modules lives in mesh-sdk, so they are mesh-sdk process's now and the
parts are pinned at fix/1945-optional-buckets (e0d1de04), moved to its
main once it merges, one delivery group with mesh-sdk.
Met twice on 2026-10-25: the builder of #48 exited on a refused read of
the gate's source and crash-looped, and its new reasks bucket would have
done the same. A grant reaches the bus with a delivery, so a refusal or a
timeout at start is often only a grant not there yet; exiting for it
stopped the whole part until a hand step on the bus.
Every startup open in the parts is now essential or optional. Essential
ones (a part's own state and the input it exists for) still stop the
start, with an error naming the bucket and its grant. Optional ones are
said and left: watches the bus refuses too. The builder builds trunk keys
without the gate's source, which it opens again at the next candidate
that asks a trunk head; toolchains and previews open again at their next
event, as a missing bucket did. builder_ask_again says that asking a
running step again builds it twice.
A new assignment whose trunk build was not done fell through the rules
with nothing said: no want, no neither-list entry, no log line, and the
rule holding it back was computed and dropped. The pass now logs the rule
when a node's reason appears or changes and when it has a want again, one
line per change. A node whose want is removed and that does not run the
module gets the reason in that removed want's words, so assigner_want
answers why; a node with no key gets no removed want, since its node agent
would then remove the module and stop holding its resources back.
