The Go runtime answers $SRV.PING, $SRV.INFO and $SRV.STATS (and per name and id) in the
io.nats.micro.v1 format with what it serves at the moment it is asked: one service per runtime
process, since the bus admits one reply per request from each responder, and one endpoint per tool
per subject, its metadata saying module, seat, scope, machine, description, schema and whether the
module is interchangeable. Serving is unchanged.
The console gathers one $SRV.INFO request's answers instead of asking the catalogue's roster and
each module's tools, and reads the controller's records as JSON for what should have answered: an
assignment with tools that did not announce is named, a module without tools never is. The text
parsers of node list and module list are gone. Packages share the test bus: go test -p 1.
mesh_overview, mesh_machine, mesh_search, mesh_describe and mesh_call walk the mesh's structure;
every tool has one address per layer: <seat>.<verb>, <node>/<seat>.<verb>, <node>/<module>.<tool>,
and <module>.<tool> for a module the mesh issued a plain subject. A stateful module called without
its machine, a node seat without one, a mesh seat with one, or a module on the wrong machine is
refused naming what would work. Answers come from the mesh when asked, kept five seconds, so a tool
that arrives mid-session is found. The flat catalogue stays behind MESH_CONSOLE_FLAT=1 and old
<module>.<tool> names still answer.
The runtime knows no language, so nothing ties it to Node.js. This ports its serve mode — the
pinned bus connection and patient connect, following memberships, launching every served bundle
over MCP on stdio with its own environment, a child's emit published as its module, each tool,
the tools verb and seat verbs served where the mesh issued them, and the console on loopback —
to one static binary. Same subjects, request and reply bodies, event headers and MCP answers.
The TypeScript stays: it is still the runtime inside the per-module containers until WP4c.
Tests run against a real bus and share the TypeScript fixtures.
