Issue 1966 (notes 147-149): after a restart, a node-engine whose first read of the seat list met "no responders" composed on its bootstrapped list for good. On ace that held about 60 modules from 22:49 to 23:21 UTC on 2026-11-09 under a misleading "no artifact store", raised no condition, and its recovery verb answered no session. Met twice (2026-11-08, 2026-11-09), so the thorough fix.

Group fix/1966-seat-list-unread, one check, members pushed together: mesh-sdk (merge first; a build edge for the others), mesh-host, mesh-catalog, mesh-delivery.

S1 mesh-host: the node-engine's ask keeps the bus's "no responders" in its error.
S2 mesh-sdk: the seat list's reader asks again (busretry) while its ask reached no one (ADR 0636 §1, §4).
S3 mesh-host: seat-list and seat-list-again answer any person, node-tools (every console call is proved as node-tools, issue 627) and mesh-healers, as the node-engine seat's definition says.
S4 mesh-host: while the list is unread, a module whose seats are not all bootstrapped is held before its build is read, with a reason naming the bootstrapped seats; a pass refused whole begins with that line.
S5 mesh-host: the integration test of the node's first read is extended: a holder that answers "no responders" then serves is read by the same reader, with no event or hand act.
S6 mesh-catalog: the condition keeper reads the node-engine's findings, so ADR 0636 §1's condition is raised.
S7 mesh-catalog (claude-code), mesh-delivery (assigner, grants): node-tools on each seat-list-again caller list.

Quick fix: restart the node-engine once (done 2026-11-09 23:21 UTC on the operator's yes, hand act act-1794266688172849851-1). Thorough fix: this change, chosen because the kind was met twice, hid its cause behind another part's name and stopped every delivery to the machine.

Tests: every change is a row or subtest of an existing test and fails without its change; no repository's test count rises (mesh-host and mesh-delivery stay over their budgets, unchanged).

Manifest validator: the verdict on mesh-catalog modules/mesh-conditions/module.json (new read mesh-host.findings) is unproved until this pull request's check runs. A local re-creation against mesh-sdk's test copy of the seats accepted it in both the change and trunk cases, with no verdict differing; that is not the validator's live verdict.

2f156e7f30

A node-engine started in the five seconds its holder re-served read no seat
list and nothing asked again: the reader read only on the seat's next event.
An ask the bus delivered to no one is now asked again within busretry's bound;
an answer, a refusal or a timeout never is (issue 1966).

mesh-delivery: the operator's Approve of this pull request's merge into main is ended: a head it covers moved on: the heads it covers are no longer the group's heads. Nothing is merged on it. The operator is asked again once the checks pass at the new head.
