Give the system a directory: ask who knows, then ask them
A memory system that only answers from its own store is a filing cabinet, not a partner. The transactive rule the project is named for — not knowing is fine when you know who does — needed a holder registry, a directory query, and a referral that never leaks the text it may not read. - schema v5 adds `holders` (person/agent/service, declared topics, contact). A holder with memories exists whether or not anybody registered them; the registry adds reachability, it does not grant existence. - `who_knows` ranks holders by their own memories and is deliberately NOT filtered by visibility: "she knows" is the answer. The answer is filtered. - `ask` searches the asker's visible scope first (hop 0), then walks the directory with a visited set and a hop budget. Three terminal states: answered, referred, no_holder_knows. Nobody knowing is a result, not an error. - Confidence is ordinal, not calibrated: relative strength, coverage, and declared topics. Every hit carries the raw numbers and the basis lines that produced the score, so a ranking can be argued with. - Faces: HTTP (/api/holders, /api/who_knows, /api/ask), CLI (holders, holder-set, holder-rm, who-knows, ask), MCP (who_knows, ask, list_holders). Four bugs found by running the thing, not by reading it: - FTS5 refuses bm25() inside MAX(); the aggregate uses FTS5's own `rank` column. - A CJK question is longer than the sentence that answers it, so the whole-run phrase matched nothing. The query now ORs adjacent bigram phrases; adjacency is kept, equal length is not. Latin path untouched, baseline unaffected. - The hop budget counted the asker as a hop, so max_hops=1 asked nobody. - A second, stricter readability test in _answered() disagreed with the SQL visibility clause and hid a memory the asker was allowed to read. The SQL clause is the only authority now. A method named `list` shadowed the builtin inside its own class and made mypy reject the return annotation; renamed rather than cast around it. Proof: 155 pytest, 12 Go tests, ruff and mypy clean on touched files, pyright ledger unchanged at 62, and scripts/mcp_write_smoke.sh drives two principals on one SQLite file — the husband asks through MCP, gets `referred` with his wife's contact channel, and her private sentence appears nowhere in the reply.
