Module bootstrap 

Cluster bootstrap and join protocol.

Three startup paths:

1. Bootstrap: First seed node — creates topology, routing table, Raft groups, persists to catalog. The cluster is born.

2. Join: New node contacts a seed, receives full cluster state via JoinResponse, persists, and registers peers.

3. Restart: Node loads topology + routing from catalog, reconnects to known peers.

Modules

bootstrap_fn

Bootstrap path: the founding member of a new cluster.

config

Cluster configuration and post-start state.

handle_join

Server-side JoinRequest handler: build a JoinResponse from current cluster state.

join

Join path: contact seeds, receive full cluster state, apply locally.

probe

Bootstrap probe: deterministic “who should bootstrap” decision and the live Ping probe used to confirm the elected bootstrapper is up.

restart

Restart path: reload topology/routing from catalog after a clean shutdown or crash.

start

Cluster startup entry point: dispatches to bootstrap, join, or restart.
