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: THE CHANGE ALTERS ITS OWN CHECK (merge-check.sh): main's version judged it; the change's judges the pull requests after it merges; it…
The evidence read "asking it: asking <subject>": the words are now the link's own.
A deadline is said as the time the check gave it. A refusal is said only when the bus
refused this question, not an earlier one under a grant since widened. merge-check.sh
runs the tests that need a bus against a throwaway nats-server when the toolchain has
one, and says so when it does not (hq issue 331).

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.
