Sixteen mutating routes now refuse a caller who cannot present the token the
server started with; queries stay open, because a question is not a write. The
environment variable is ELY_EYE_AUTH_TOKEN, following the repo's env_prefix
convention — the shorter name I reached for first returned 403 where the smoke
expected 401, and the server printed the reason.
Words from a stranger are quarantined on the way in: an HTTP upload is
third_party by definition, and a sentence carrying an instruction-shaped phrase
is quarantined whoever wrote it. A quarantined atom stays findable and stays out
of the compiled context until a second, live, unquarantined source agrees with
its rarest words. Corroboration is computed at read time because it is a
property of the corpus now, not of the moment a memory was written; it is
term-level, and the docstring says so.
forget now erases the source row and the compiled contexts beside the atoms, so
a forgotten memory leaves nothing that can still speak. The semantic cache key
carries a store revision, which fixes a real staleness: a context compiled
before new evidence arrived kept its old quarantine decision forever.
bench.audit --product still pointed at evals.py, which the p1-6 split moved into
backend/src/ely_eye/proofs/. It failed fast, but the anti-self-justification
rule had quietly stopped auditing the product; it now walks the package, and a
test pins that the package exists and holds no re-roll.
Gates: pytest 306 passed; ruff clean; mypy cold cache 24 errors in 9 files, the
recorded baseline, net zero; pyright 0 errors on the 23 backend files and the 2
bench files; go build/vet/test and gofmt clean; npm run build 221.39 kB with
eslint exit 0; bench/filesize_check clean; bench.audit --product clean over 31
harness files; scripts/mcp_write_smoke.sh PASS with the gate live across two
servers and the MCP child.
The store had a write path, a mount path and a search path, and the console
still showed a dashboard of counters. Nothing in the UI could ask what someone
knows, page through atoms, look at a wordless picture, forget one memory, or
mount a cartridge — so the mechanisms built in P0 were invisible.
Backend:
- senses.py: one function decides what this machine can perceive. /api/status
and doctor each computed it before, which is two truths. Picture atoms are now
counted by image_ref rather than by modality, so a screenshot crop from a PDF
counts and a picture whose bytes were deleted stops claiming it can be encoded.
- browse.py: GET /api/atoms pages newest-first through v_atoms_current with
modality/holder/source filters; GET /api/atoms/{id}/image serves the stored
bytes so a picture with no OCR text can be looked at.
- Deleted 8 HTTP routes nobody calls (4 benchmark, research modules, dense index,
visual-contradiction-proof, memory-map). Their functions stay: the CLI and the
proof checks use them. The surface is 30 routes, pinned as a set by a test so a
new unused route fails the suite.
Frontend: App.tsx (517 lines) became a 131-line shell plus seven panels that own
their own fetches, and lib/format.ts. types.ts now carries the memory dimensions
the backend has been sending since schema v2.
Two invented fields were rendering lies: AdapterPanel showed gpu_available and
probe_status, which AdapterLoadReport does not have — every machine looked GPU-less
including this one. The panel now shows only what the server says.
Proof: scripts/ui_smoke.sh starts the API on a fresh temp home, serves the built
UI from the same origin, and drives five interactions in a real browser — search
as somebody in a scenario, page and view a wordless picture, forget, mount, read
adapter states with reasons. It prints the mount refusal verbatim rather than
pretending the mount succeeded.
Gates: 263 pytest passed; ruff and mypy clean on the 8 touched backend files
(repo-wide mypy unchanged at 24 errors / 6 files); pyright 0 errors there;
go build/vet/test/gofmt clean; npm build + eslint clean; ui_smoke and
mcp_write_smoke both PASS.
Real-models implementation: multimodal ingestion, Context Cartridge memory,
sparse + Qwen embedding retrieval, Cache Fabric, Qwen runtime adapters, verifier
contracts, Visual HashHop proofs, BF16 LoRA fine-tuning, and a local dashboard.
Verified by a 15-check PRD proof suite on the live model.
