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 §6: a composition read from composed-<node> is a record never
applied, and the engine applies only what it composes itself, so no
composition carries a signature and nothing is verified. The agent's
trusted signers, its signed-composition test and the unused signing
helper of the integration bed go, so mesh-sdk can drop SignComposed,
VerifyComposed and Composed.Signature.

The test budget: mesh-host is over 500 unit tests, so the three tests
added for ADR 0593 §6 and §7 are paid for by folding the private
network's hub refusals, its MTU cases and its no-self-peer check into
table-driven tests, each case kept.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
ADR 0593 §6, §7, §9: the integration test runs the node agent against
the real bus under the grant the grants part composes for a node: it
publishes web's composition in composed-<node> with the digest its have
names, and answers compose-candidate for the indexer's candidate,
changing nothing. A node that cannot compose now answers unready, so
the checker counts it as no answer by the verdict and never by words.
The golden grant reads the indexer's candidates and verdicts as it
reads the builder's builds.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
ADR 0593 §6: composed-<node> is written again, by the node's engine,
each composition with its plan. The verb composition finds a published
revision by the digest the have and want name, its resources', so a plan
on the record does not hide it. The golden node grant also reads the
indexer's verdicts, which compose-candidate takes for a candidate's
manifests.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
ADR 0593 §7: a check's composition is the checker's, made from each
placed node's answer, since only a node can compose with its own sealed
values. The node composes the indexer's candidate in shadow on a copy of
its shadow's inputs, the candidate's modules laid over the indexer's
with their manifest verdicts, and answers per module composed (changed
or not), refused or held, and its own composition's verdict, within the
answer bound; it applies, writes and hands nothing. With input it also
answers the composition input, for the sandbox path.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
ADR 0593 §6: the provisioner, the assigner and the view read compositions
instead of composing, so the node's engine writes each one it makes to
its composition state: the wanted builds, every placed module at its
newest done build (so the plan exists before the want moves), each with
its provisioning plan, and a module refused alone with its refusal. A
key is written only when it differs, and kept while among the module's
five newest or named by a want. A placed module's trunk build landing
now makes a pass.
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.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
The bus module on the bus node runs from what its agent holds (its own composition, or the declaration kept before the
switch: every novox have read 2026-11-02 names its own composition or none, and nats names a build alone), while
composed-<node> was written by the controller, which ended (issue 1126). The follower now looks at the agent's record
of what runs whenever it changed, writes again only when the file it names moved, and trusts no composition signer.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
Every node composes its own since group A (issue 1126), so the resync that handed the vault an own secret's value
while a node applied the controller's compositions never runs, the shadow's answers read no want, and nothing follows
the heard vault key any more.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
nox now calls the seats' verbs through the console itself (mesh-catalog #593), and the controller the engine forwarded
its lines to ended (issue 1126), so the socket, its forward and the subject it asked on go. The kernel's word on a
peer moves into the filled-file socket, its one remaining reader.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
The CONTROL stream the facts, the enrolment and the overlay rekey were published into was the controller's, which ended
by its unassignment (issue 1126) and whose stream is removed after group B's delivery: a publish there would fail every
facts event before its haves are written. The facts go into the haves as they did after the report, the enrolment goes
through mesh-enrolment alone, and overlay take is refused because no seat takes a rekey now.

The controller that signed the hand-over, search, judgement, access and move asks ended (issue 1126), so a link
believes none of them by having no signer, and the per-ask key it was told to follow goes with the lease.

The controller's declared-packages mirror ended with the controller (issue 1126) and is deleted after group B's
delivery, so the verb no longer reads or compares it.

The controller ended by its unassignment (issue 1126, ADR 0590), so no build is judged by the lease: the lease
witness, its contract and the direct get the witness asked it with are removed, and its tests now prove each rollback
path on the node tools' PING.

mesh/check being carried to 38d666f22390 on 84737f4cb26d | from 14a12cc7b6f9
The controller ended by its unassignment, so a node that falls back to the
compositions in its bucket follows what nobody writes (issue 1126, A7). The
node agent now always runs its own composer: without a placement key it
composes nothing and keeps what runs, a placement it cannot watch stops the
agent and is said, and a candidate taking its placement away is refused
instead of answered as a return to the controller. The start-time placement
read, the end-when-placed watchers and the returning answer go, with their
tests and the three integration tests of the controller-composed path.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
The controller ended by its unassignment and its lease is never handed, so
the engine's lease gate kept trusting the controller's key and the bus node
kept the controller's list as a fallback nobody writes (issue 1126, A6).
The engine now trusts no controller signature, its hand-over line names the
node seat's hand-over, and the user-list follower writes only the grants
part's list: a key unreadable or deleted keeps the list loaded, and with no
key heard nothing is written. Compositions in the node's bucket name the
file's place alone. The guard no longer asks for the controller's user.

A fall back to the old login during a rotation is now delivery.NodeHealth's Fallback (the node, the login fallen back from,
why, when), written with the node's health report, from which the watchman raises node-account-fallback; it is said no more
once the vault's key of the node moves on (blocker 7, ADR 0583 §6). mesh-host enrol's fall back to the controller's
enrolment subject says it is the path before the lease write, which the bus refuses once the lease is written. Tests: rows
in the existing rotation test; none added.

A stand-in vault reloads a nats-server's users as the grants part's list is loaded, and the engine's own rotation code runs
against it with real test-dials and a real confirmation request: at every step at least one login authenticates; the engine
switches only once the list holds both logins and confirms in the new login's name; at rotation-done the old login is
retired and its value dropped; with the list never loaded the test-dial is refused and the engine never switches; and an
abandon after the switch brings the engine back to the old login before the new value goes (ADR 0583 §2-§6). One integration
test; mesh-host holds seven of fifty. The real vault and the real engine together are proven live on g14 first.

The engine dials as enrol.<node> on the pinned certificate, calls redeem with the public halves of its keys and a proof over
them (the SDK's RedeemProof, which binds the node and the keys and never the token's secret), asks again while the holder
says to, and verifies the vault's answer against the key its token carries before it keeps anything: an answer signed by
another key, naming another signer or node, or altered is refused and nothing is kept. A signed one is kept (membership,
login, keys), then the node dials as the login it was given, reads its key of node-logins, and calls confirm; nothing is
applied until its placement names a module. When the bus does not serve the seat to the token (the controller still holds its
lease) the controller's enrolment subject is used as before. The token's shape is mesh-sdk's now: identity keeps its names as
aliases. Tests: one added, paid by merging three identity token tests into one (net two fewer).

Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
On node-logins' ready the engine fetches the new value through the vault's own hand-out (own/<node>/mesh-host/<login>, opened
with its sealing key), dials a second connection as the new login on the pinned certificate, and switches only if that
authenticates, then calls mesh-vault.node-account-confirm over the link as the new login (the vault is asked in the name of
the login the open link authenticated as, and only once that link is open). It keeps the old value until the key says the
rotation is done and drops it then, never before; an abandon, after the switch before or after the confirmation, switches
back before the new value is dropped; repeated refusals of the new login's credentials before rotation-done bring it back
to the old one, said as the finding node-account-fallback (in the journal: no route for an engine's finding to the watchman
is decided), and the same rotation is not tried again. Tests: two added, paid by merging two identity sealing tests into one;
more to be paid by deleting the identity token tests that move to mesh-sdk with the token (774/S64).

A membership may name its Logins (ADR 0583 §1): the login in use and the password of each login held, kept beside the
identity, so a restart dials as the login in use. The engine follows its own key of node-logins as a watch on every link
and dials as the login it names when it holds its value, with the node's one inbox; with no key, or a key naming the first
login, it dials node.<n> with the membership's password as before. A change of the login in use drops the link so it is
opened again as the new one, and the vault is asked in the name of the login dialled (the subject names the caller).
Tests: one added, paid by merging the pinned-broker test with the malformed-pin test (two into one).

pacman still reads the controller's mirror because no engine wrote its key: the engine
now keeps each handed composition's package resources and, after a pass that handed
something new, writes mesh-host_packages.<node> only when the value differs, owed after
the growing bound when refused. The manifest declares the state so the grants part
creates it. The verb packages answers the key beside the mirror's key for the node and
their difference, and with write writes the key again from what was composed. H8's
integration test proves the write under the grant the grants part composes.
Needs mesh-sdk feat/node-packages (0ef7c0c) for DeclaredPackagesOf and the engine's read of the
mirror (go.mod pin left for the lead: the SDK commit is not pushed).

The builder claims a done key again as a new revision, so a build kept as done is dropped on any
write of its key. Data items that could not be worked out or written stay due and owe a pass after
the growing bound, so a first write refused before the state or grant exists is tried again
without waiting for an unrelated composition.

The data items after a pass re-read each placed module's build over the bus (about 55 per pass on
ace, g14 and shanks); a done build never changes, so the composer keeps it. The items are now
worked out with the pass's own kept builds and modules run inside the node's own, as composed.

After a pass that handed a new composition, the node's composer works out its modules' data
items from the inputs it composed from and writes each module's key <node>.<module> of
mesh-host_data only when it differs, deleting the keys of modules that left. Pins mesh-sdk
feat/data-items for the contract and the engine's grant. Two tool-answer tests are merged so
the unit count stays where it was.
