SUBS-032: nested abc submodule resolves to the WRONG source (head → ?/abc no-refs; patch → official github)

Recursing into the nested abc submodule of beagle derives the wrong remote on two verbs. be head be://localhost/beagle-journal?/beagle recurses to be://localhost/ beagle-journal?/abc — the journal ROOT coordinate, which advertises no refs (abc is nested UNDER beagle). be patch instead reaches for the OFFICIAL https://github.com/gritzko/libabc.git and hard-fails offline. Either way the local co-resident abc shard is never used. SUBS-017-class. Method: Issues.

Input

Context

• be head be://localhost/beagle-journal?/beagle → after the parent head, `be: head

  abc → remote be://localhost/beagle-journal?/abc is not a beagle or git repository (reachable, but advertised no refs), HOMENOPROJ / WIRENOTRP. Wrong coordinate: ?/abc` is the journal root, not the abc nested under beagle.

• be patch '?6a0ce1b7!' applied cleanly (incl. applied abc) but THEN still did an

  ssh/https fetch of https://github.com/gritzko/libabc.git → WIREUNRCH / BEDOGEXIT. It used the OFFICIAL url, not the local abc shard, on a local reconcile.

• Both: the abc sub source resolver picks journal-root / official upstream over the

  local nested/co-resident shard. Relates to SUBS-017 (wrong remote target) and SUBS-020/SUBS-024 (parent-kind source resolution).

Goals

• Nested abc resolves to its local co-resident/nested shard for be head and

  be patch when reachable; fall back to official only when genuinely needed.

• A LOCAL patch reconcile that already applied abc does NOT trigger a network fetch.

Constraints

• Reuse the GET-side resolver (SUBS-020 SNIFFSub*); don't re-roll. Repro-first.
• Don't regress beagle-peer / git-parent sub resolution.

WIP

Design decisions

• (pending) Find where head/patch sub-recursion builds the abc coordinate; it must nest

  under the parent (co-resident / ?/beagle/abc), not the journal root ?/abc.

TODOs

• Repro be head abc → ?/abc no-refs; fix the nested coordinate.
• Repro be patch abc → official github fetch; prefer the local shard, no net on local.

Blockers and bummers

• Surfaced reconciling JS-053 against URI-006 St.2 6a0ce1b7.

Outcome

• OPEN (audit 2026-07-07): no commit references SUBS-032 in any repo log; the nested-sub coordinate derivation in native head/patch is unchanged. NOTE: not listed on the top board (todo/README.mkd) — a board gap.
