Better to have nothing than a harness that punishes refactoring
(operator ruling, 2026-09-22). Remove scripts/mutate-cultmesh.mjs
(1451 lines) and its Node dependency from the Linux QUIC dev image.
The behavioural coverage stays: native/GameCult.Mesh.Quic.Native's
scenario runner and its seams (waitseam, pollhammer, holdtimeout,
zerotimeout, closerace, and the rest) are untouched. The README and
the dev Dockerfile now document building with
-DCULTMESH_QUIC_BUILD_TESTS=ON -DCULTMESH_QUIC_DEBUG_ASSERTS=ON and
running each scenario as a direct argument to the built binary,
instead of through the harness.
docs/cultnet-selection-cut.md and docs/typescript-quic-realtime-cut.md
still name the harness; they are Self's campaign history and stay as
written.
