The check of release sdk1 failed on TestStatePutWritesAKeyWhole: TestACallIsAskedAgainOnlyWhenItReachedNoOne left busretry's Bound at 50 ms, and on a loaded machine the state test's first pause overran it. Second failure of the kind "tests leave package-level state set". Quick fix: restore busretry's waits in the one test and lengthen the state test's bound. Thorough fix (chosen, the kind met twice): busretry.Waits sets the waits and returns their restore, used as t.Cleanup(busretry.Waits(...)) by every test that sets them, each with a bound of seconds where it waits to succeed; and servesAlone gives every test that serves its own runtime channel and Served, put back after it, instead of tests clearing the channel an earlier one left. A scan of every test assignment to a package-level variable found no other unrestored one. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01NcbgfJ9Gum47zkFKWRaovL
mesh-sdk for Go
stdio.Serve("", tools) speaks MCP over stdio to the node's tool runtime, as the module the runtime
names (novox/hq ADR 0188, ADR 0193). A Tool is a name, a description, an argument schema and a
function; calls run concurrently. stdio.CallerOf(args) inside a tool is who called it: the bus user the runtime took from the subject the call arrived on, named in the call's _meta, never read from the arguments — or stdio.Unproven when the runtime named none (novox/hq issue 365). A tool named <seat>.<verb> is the seat's implementation.
stdio.Emit(type, body) publishes an event as the module, stdio.Subscribe(pattern, handler) receives the module's events (taken when the handler returns nil, offered again when it returns an error — the one rule is in the repository README, "Taking an event") and stdio.Ask(key, body) calls a tool, and stdio.State(name) gets, puts, deletes, lists, watches and reads the kept history of the module's declared state, and stdio.Log(name) appends to, reads, and measures a log of operations the module declared — all through the runtime (novox/hq ADR 0193, 0198, 0201, 0297, 0307). stdio.Config(key) and stdio.Bound(provision, key) read, and stdio.WatchConfig and stdio.WatchBound watch, the module's own config values and the non-secret values of what it is bound to, for what its manifest declares: the runtime asks its machine's provisioner client as the module it launched, never a module the code names. stdio.Secret(name) is refused while the module's code runs in the tool runner; its secrets reach it through its files (novox/hq ADR 0349 §14, ADR 0370). provider is a providing module's half of a binding (novox/hq ADR 0349 §12, issue 678): it sees each consumer that binds the provider in the plans of the assignments mirror, writes one entry per consumer to <module>_bound (<node>.<module>.<provision>[.<local>]: served values composed with the consumer's identity, the login, and the name of the vault's credential, never a secret), hands the provider's adapter the vault's value (provision/<provider>/<provision> shared, pair/<provider>/<provision>/<node>/<module>[/<local>] per consumer), refuses a derived value to a consumer bound under a local name, naming both ends, and removes the entry of one that unbinds; the bus and the vault are interfaces the provider wires, the vault as provider.ConsumersFile, the file its machine's provisioner client fills from ${consumers:<provision>} with each bound consumer's credential (novox/hq ADR 0373), since a provider in the tool runner never asks the vault itself. Standard library only.

Releases are tagged go/vX.Y.Z in this repository, the subdirectory form Go's module system expects,
at the same version as the TypeScript package.
What it holds, under ADR 0039's test: the stdio loop and the tool type, and cli, the local protocol
mesh-cli speaks to the node-engine on its machine (novox/hq ADR 0272): the socket's path and one request and one
answer; and seal, the mesh's sealed box (novox/hq ADR 0206: X25519, HKDF-SHA256, AES-256-GCM, {v, eph, iv, tag, ct}), byte for byte the box the licence manager made before it lived here. Nothing else — no bus, no client, nothing of any module's.
From release 4a of design 47 (novox/hq ADR 0453 clause 3, ADR 0446 clause 4) it also holds the composition of a machine's declaration, over a plain input and with nothing behind it: declaration and validate, the node-engine's parser and its validator, copied from mesh-host; catalogue, the manifests, their resolution and rendering, and overlay, the private network's generator, copied from mesh-controller; compose, the controller's planFor, renderingFor and declarationWith as functions of an Input (the composition never allocates, makes, keeps or writes: what a send would do it names as foreseen or returns); sdkversion, which mesh-sdk version a program was built with; and, in delivery, the layouts of the keys the builder, the checker and the indexer write (the source fingerprint's new form, the builds, the verdicts and kept verdicts, the manifests by digest). None of them holds a bus, a store or a vault client, which go list -deps of compose shows.
