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)
A module whose only fault was a secret the operator had not given yet was
stated unhealthy, failed its first-node gate and was put back. The engine
now reads the tool's answer through mesh-sdk go/health and states such a
resource waiting, with what it waits for, on one look; a malformed wait
stays unhealthy.

The walk kept its progress every minute and nobody could read it: root-free said only that a search ran.
The account verdict now carries the progress (counts, times, mount points; never a path) as fields and in
its reason, outside what makes a verdict changed. A signed ask from the controller's terminal throws the last
search away and starts a full one, after the operator removed by hand what it found.

The file on PATH was the engine a person copied at installation, and every delivered engine ran from the versions directory: the operator typed hand-over and a build from before it answered "unexpected argument". A proved engine now copies itself over that file when the bytes differ (never a link). And the hand-over of a directory used as found (issue 339) gets its channel: the controller's terminal asks this node's engine on mesh.node.<node>.ask.hand-over; the engine judges every value — the ask's size and shape, who asked, the path as it states it, a directory and no link, through no link — and records it or refuses and records nothing. Every text the engine addresses to the operator names the nox line (ADR 0272); the engine's own subcommands are install-time and rescue, and its usage says so.

- Any failure of a request the link may have delivered now says the line
may have run; "nothing ran" is said only of a request the link knows it
never asked (no link open, nobody listening: link.ErrNotAsked).
- A test holds that a connection saying nothing is answered within its
deadline, set at accept, and gives its slot back.
- The README says the socket refuses a process outside the machine's own
namespaces, so flatpak, toolbox and distrobox shells are refused.

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.

The queue asks a tool through a ToolBus assertion that only OverNATS satisfied; the
link the engine actually holds (natsLink) had no Ask, so every tool check failed as
"no link to the bus is open" while the link was up (hq issue 331). Give natsLink Ask,
assert at build time every optional interface the queue expects of it, and tell a link
that cannot ask apart from no link.
A VPN client rewrote the laptop's resolver file and every mesh name failed
while each module read healthy: nothing asked the machine. The engine now
looks every 30 s at the resolver file the uplink holder declared (naming
the program that rewrote it), the names through each listed resolver
(NXDOMAIN for a mesh name's IPv6 address is a finding, issue 262), the
tunnel's handshake with the hub, the bus and the default route; a part is
unhealthy on its second failing look, and the statement carries it.
Liveness alone could not see a web application whose port was open and whose
program ran while every request hung for eleven hours (issue 145). A resource
now carries the `health` its module declared: the engine makes http and tcp
looks itself from the machine to the endpoint's published port, reads a unit's
readiness from the show it already makes, hands an exec command or the image's
own check to the runtime as the container's check with the declared timing and
reads its state from the inspect it already makes, and asks a module's tool on
its own node tools. Starting until the check passed, unhealthy once its looks
after the grace fail the declared number of times; never more looks than the
measured budget; nothing restarted. The statement says contract 2, which tells
the controller this engine may be sent the field.

A container that crash-looped after its compose applied passed every check the
gate had: nothing looked at what a module runs. The node-engine now judges every
long-running resource on every look — one read of the runtime, one per service
manager — keeps the restarts it counts across recreates and its own restarts,
and says the state in every report and as an event on change, again every minute
while not healthy. It reads only; nothing is restarted for being unhealthy.
The controller's healer H1 answers a send that went unreported by asking the
machine first: a report lost on its way (issue 264) needs no second send. The
node-engine now hears mesh.node.<self>.ask.report on core NATS and enqueues a
reconcile whose account is said whether or not it is news; a delivery waiting
meanwhile is applied and reported instead. The answer is an ordinary report on
its own subject, so the node publishes nothing new and answers nobody's inbox.
The genesis lock grants the controller the healer-acted seat event, which it
now composes; the genesis test in mesh-controller holds the two equal.
A delivery and the five-minute reconcile were two paths that applied, ordered only by a lock, and
each order it allowed was met live (issues 257, 261, 267). Now both only enqueue: one worker takes
the newest declaration held when it starts, applies it once and makes one report, and reports leave
in the order they are made.
A declaration may carry the controller's lease epoch beside its sequence; one older than what this
node applied is refused before anything is touched, counted, logged and reported. A report carries
the declaration's epoch and sequence and the host's own report sequence, kept on disk so it goes on
increasing across restarts and self-updates. Without an epoch, today's behaviour stands.
