jochen 564948c2f2 mesh-cli: follow a line to its answer, bound each account, refuse other namespaces (review of hq ADR 0272)
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)
mesh/repo-check pass: its merge-check.sh passed
mesh/delivery superseded: a newer head of the same pull request
- A request that timed out was said as "the controller was not reached,
  nothing ran", though the line may have run. The engine now follows a line
  the controller answers as running, by its call, until it ends; when no
  answer comes in time it says the line may have run and names the call.
  "Nothing ran" is said only of a request no controller took.
- One account could hold the socket: accepting waited for a free slot, and
  a connection could stall before its deadline was set. The deadline is set
  at accept, before any lookup; each user id has two lines at once and the
  machine eight, and one over is answered busy at once.
- A container running with the operator's user id shares the number, not
  the machine: a peer whose mount or user namespace is not the engine's is
  refused, and nothing is asked.

SDK pinned at the go/cli branch's newest commit until go/v0.1.9 is tagged.

jochen 021d860ca4 Vouch for the account that runs mesh-cli, and ask the controller its line (hq ADR 0272)
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.
