mesh/merge-gate pass: builds mesh-host → ace, g14, novox, shanks; no bus step; every machine composes with the change as it did without (4 of 4 compose)
The records send the operator to "the controller's terminal", and nothing
reaches it (hq issue 343). mesh-cli holds no credential: it asks the engine
on its own machine over a socket. The engine reads the asking account from
the kernel (SO_PEERCRED), never from the program, and asks the controller on
mesh.control.<node>.cli, its own node's subject, so the bus server says which
node asked. The controller decides what the line may do; nothing received
on the socket is run or applied here, and the socket has no network address
(ADR 0004 stands).
The local protocol is the SDK's go/cli package, at a pseudo-version of its
branch until that merges and is tagged go/v0.1.8.
