On ace, a node-engine left on its bootstrapped seat list could not find the
artifact store's seat, refused avahi's archive reference and with it the whole
pass, so the seat-list hold never ran and every module said "reaches no
artifact store". While the list is unread, a placed module whose seats are not
all bootstrapped is now held as it runs before anything of its build is read
(frombus.Scope.Held), its reason names the bootstrapped seats the node holds,
and a pass refused whole says the unread list first (issue 1966).

compose.CompositionsHolding returns the modules the declaration leaves out for a claim that cannot be held or a refused
credential; frombus composeEach holds each with those words, so the node-engine keeps what it handed of the module (no
stop of a running module), the candidate answer and the check's sandbox name it refused, and the rest composes.
CredentialsNeeded asks nothing for a held module. Resolve and checkClaims move to a test helper (production uses
ResolveHolding and holdClaims); a pass refused anyway names a held module's reason among the others.
Quick fix: Declared.Held read in the composer only. Thorough, chosen: the same held words reach every reader of the
composition (selfcompose, ComposeSent, the candidate answer) through composeEach's one hold path.

Every pass names each wanted module it made no composition of, with why (Pass.Unmade, the verb compose, one journal line per
change); a want not taken is said; the agent says once per want that it waits for the composer and why, and tells it, so a
composition the composer believed handed is handed again.

mesh/check checking 53addd73c358 on e73aae3686a6 | novox/mesh-host#209 in group feat/registry-milestone
The running indexer could not read 17 of the group's manifests, so the running node-engine composed those modules at
their trunk builds and said nothing; the head composer laid those builds over the change's other manifests and ace
failed on "nothing provides artifact-store, wanted by mesh-build-go" (group check 8a80e8e86858). The input a node
answers a check with now names, per module taken in from its build, the content digest of the manifest that build was
made of (ComposedHow.Manifests); the composer compares it with the case's manifest, and, for an input from a
node-engine before it, compares what the two manifests say beyond what a take-in resolves (the lead's ruling, §17).
Each module lifted either way is composed from the case's manifest, its build awaited, and named in NotJudged with
the comparison that lifted it; one that cannot compose without its build is held as its stub. The digest is taken
over one JSON form because a request through a build module arrives compacted.

The node's own composition named a held module's why only; it now also says whether its manifest's verdict or this
node-engine's decoder holds it, and at which build, as the input a check's composer reads says it. Said in the held
words, so the node-engine seat's answer keeps its shape.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfFSnn24M3GcqttoU7i
A module the running indexer refused stood in the input as its stub with no build, so a check's composer that
judges the change's manifest itself had nothing to compose it at. Each held module now says whether its verdict
or the decoder holds it; for a check's answer the node also takes in the build it would compose it at, when the
builder holds it done, beside the stub and never into what the node composes.

The state, events and types of the seat mesh-module-assigner say assignments; the legacy node key form is gone from the
reads; the dead seat-verb list of the retired name is deleted. The placement guard and the placed-file sense stay.

The engine's Composed keeps the catalogue's Plan and the declaration types and goes through nodeengineclient's codec; the fingerprint key part is meshcatalogclient's. The candidate answer is nodeengine.CandidateAnswer; the have still holds it through an interim JSON bridge (link.interimAnswers) until the Have group moves.

While the indexer holds distribution's new manifest, every node reads main's,
which claims only mesh-artifact-store: a new engine must find the store there.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01JG73KJNrH5EgFXMKKYSrig
The provision artifact-store retires, so the store is found by the holder of
container-image-registry and the listen it opens to the mesh, on the port its
node put it on; every name of the store, oci-artifact-registry's too, answers
that address. The engine states form:seat-reach with its contract.

mesh/check being carried to 966093d8d067 on fabfdf04f78a | from 4d47ff5ce743, mesh-catalog dd458cb155f5
The vault judged a module handed only when its assignment already carried a handing plan, and the node-engine followed
that word: a module with no plan was composed the old way, refused for a key only the provider's helper answers
(forge-account's ssh_alias), and so never got its plan. resolution.Handing is now the manifest, its build and the
machine alone; the vault's word is read only to say where the two disagree. A refusal of a file or an own secret the
provisioner's client should fill now says "handed module not handed" and why, never only the keys a binding lacks or a
secret to make.

mesh/check being carried to 8e325830891c on 4d47ff5ce743 | from 6019c6d514a7
The declaration named the account only beside its filled files (node.go), so a node whose every filled-file module
was held this pass named none: on ace from 2026-11-04 01:29 its build modules and ssh-client were held for their
forge binding, and the node-engine refused every write of the files they keep, and of every other module's. The
account is the node's, named whenever the rendering has one. A row holds restic, the provisioned mesh's one
filled-file module, with the client placed: the node's own still names the account; it named none before.

mesh/check being carried to 054754482cf4 on 6019c6d514a7 | from 83e135f10187
The review removed the guard and the suite still passed. The guard is now provisionerHeld, a placed client held as
its stand-in, rather than any placed client, so one placed and not held that composes no account keeps none stale.
Rows in the held client's table: the client taken out of the node's placement while what runs names the account, read
from the running own composition and from the client's running process, names no account; a placed client whose
process names no user names none. With the guard removed the first three fail; with it reduced to "placed", the last.

provisionerAccount reads the user of the client's process from this pass's plan, and a client held as its stub (or
carried as it runs) composes no process: on ace, 2026-11-04 01:29 to 01:33, the node's own composition named no
account, the node-engine refused every filled write, and no module was handed (postgres's consumers, restic, power).
A node now carries the account its client runs as (Node.RunningProvisioner: its own composition's account as it runs,
else the user of the client's running process), and a placed client that composes none this pass keeps it. A row holds
the client in the provisioned mesh, both ways: the account stays and restic keeps its filled files; both were lost
before.

frombus skipped reading the build of every module in Scope.InOwn, while compose.compositions folds such a module only
at no src2: fingerprint: a want at src2: (nats on novox, its have waiting for a yes) composed it from the indexer's
unresolved manifest and built() refused it, "no build has published" its server artifact. compose.Folds is now the one
rule; frombus takes the build in, or keeps the module at its wanted build, exactly where it says the module is not
folded. A row composes spiegel, in InOwn and wanted at src2:, from its build's upstream image; it read the indexer's
manifest before.

ADR 0593 §7: the composer with its refusals leaves mesh-sdk, so mesh-sdk
carries no composition rule. The catalogue functions only the
node-engine's composition reaches (Resolve, Resolution's Compose,
Declaration, DataItems, LeftOut, Rules and the rest, the settings,
placeholder and template refusals, the rendering helpers) are copied
with their tests into internal/compose/resolution; a method of a
mesh-sdk shape becomes a function taking it first. The composition
calls its own copies, and the captured catalogue its tests read lives
here now, shared by mesh-compose's tests.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
ADR 0593 §1 and §7: compose, its bus reader and runtime reader, takein,
validate, the overlay generator, the composer's run and mesh-compose, and
the judgement of a move leave mesh-sdk for the node-engine's internal
packages, so no other module composes and a change to them rebuilds only
the node-engine. The shapes others read (the composer's request and
verdict, the overlay's names, compositions and answers) stay in mesh-sdk.
The node's grant is now a golden file of what the grants part composes,
since the composer of the bus's user list leaves mesh-sdk too.
