# TWO MACHINES, AND NOTHING FAKED. The no-fake multi-node gate.
#
# The one-node scenario proves a machine given nothing but a container runtime ends up with a mesh
# that BUILT everything it runs. This is its two-machine sibling, and the multi-node claim it adds
# is the one the rewrite-based beds could not honestly make: every image on either machine was
# pulled from the internet or built by the mesh's own builder — the bed rewrites nothing, pins
# nothing, stocks nothing. The builder is the only thing that ever turns a manifest's placeholder
# into a digest, exactly as in production.
#
# anchor is raised into a mesh of one by the installer, adopts the foundation store and broker as
# the postgres and lavinmq modules (built by the mesh), and node2 joins and runs the consumers —
# amqp-ping against the one broker, letta against the one store — over the overlay.
#
# **There is no `images:` key, and that is the whole point of this file.**
#
# EGRESS IS NOT OPTIONAL: with nothing loaded, a sealed machine stops at the installer's first pull.

/**
* THE NO-FAKE MULTI-NODE GATE: two machines, everything built by the mesh itself.
*
* The rewrite-based multi-node beds pre-stock runtime images and rewrite each manifest's
* placeholder digest to whatever they stocked — bed code doing the builder's job, which means the
* builder's job was never under test. This bed removes the shortcut. The scenario names NO images;
* the committed manifests are registered VERBATIM; the only thing that ever turns
* `mesh-runtime-<m>@sha256:0000…` (or an `artifact:` reference) into a real digest is the mesh's
* own builder, exactly as in production.
*
* What it proves, end to end:
* 1. The installer raises `anchor` into a mesh of one — building the control plane (ADR 0073),
* standing up the registry and the builder.
* 2. The mesh BUILDS the shared base, then postgres and lavinmq, from the forge — and adopts the
* foundation's own store and broker as those modules (ADR 0078), the store's genesis superuser
* carried in through `secret accept` (the same act as hq phase3 deliverSuperuser).
* 3. `node2` joins, and its consumers are BUILT and delivered the same way: `amqp-ping` opens the
* one broker and `letta` gets a database on the one store — both across the overlay, admitted
* by the firewall the nftables module derives (issues 055/056/057 in one bed).
*
* MESH_LAB_HOST_BINARY=.../mesh-host MESH_LAB_BOOTSTRAP_BINARY=.../mesh-bootstrap
* MESH_LAB_BUNDLE=.../examples/foundation-first-node.lock (the TEMPLATE)
