;; lib/host/ta.sx — TA: the fed-sx TRANSPORT ADAPTER (plans/business-logic-fed-flows.md). A seam
;; transport {:emit :deliver} (behavior.sx) over a directional WIRE, so an activity emitted on one
;; instance reaches another instance's engine and fires ITS behaviors — federation.
;;
;; The transport is the SERIALIZATION boundary: activities cross the wire as SX-source strings
;; (string-keyed for persist/wire safety, reconstructed on arrival). The wire is dumb string
;; transport {:send :recv}; the REAL wire is next/ delivery (outbox→peers / inbox), DEFERRED to
;; TA-live (same persistent-kernel prerequisite as RA-live); a mem-wire drives the tests.
;;
;; DIRECTIONAL: :emit → an OUT wire (this instance's outbox → followers); :deliver → an IN wire
;; (its inbox ← those it follows). Separate channels, so processing a delivered activity (which the
;; seam re-emits to log it) goes to THIS instance's outbox, NOT back into the inbox — no loop.

;; canonical activity (keyword-keyed) <-> the flat string-keyed WIRE form (persist/serialise-safe).

;; TA-LIVE: an HTTP fed-wire — :send POSTs a serialized activity to a PEER's /inbox over real HTTP
;; (http-request, native primitive). :recv is unused: a peer's /inbox route pushes received
;; activities straight into its engine (host/blog--receive!), so delivery is push, not poll. This is
;; the fed-sx transport in production — an activity emitted here fires a REMOTE instance's behaviors.

;; that must not fail the local emit wrap this in a guard, per the durable-outbox pattern).
