Three faults with one root: the stored body of a code-defined node is an
import shim, and nothing that mattered was ever read from the code itself.
- The run stamp could not identify what ran. The shim imports whatever is on
disk when the worker starts, and an uncommitted tree stamps <commit>-dirty
for every run it ever produces. Run.code_digest hashes the repository's .py
files, memoized on their stat state, and it is read again when the run is
actually claimed -- so a sweep queued for hours records the code each of its
runs executed, not the code that was there when it was submitted.
- The stage cache adopted code that was too new. The fingerprint hashed the
shim, which is invariant under any edit to the imported function or anything
it calls into, so a re-run was served from cache and answered without the
outputs the edit added. It now carries the repo digest and the node's
declared ports. Every fingerprint changes once, which invalidates the
existing cache; a canvas flow has no repository and keys as before.
- An interrupted sync looked like a hand-edited canvas. The engine answers a
new-node template for a node with no stored body, and the template carries
no marker, so the drift check read "somebody edited this" and demanded
--force -- for the one state that re-running the sync is the fix for.
NodeSource.missing states the fact, and sync skips those and reuses the
bodies it read instead of asking for each one twice.
