ZacharyZhang-NY c48b48b80f Say plainly when several live models hold different adapters
Round three of the adapter review found two leftovers from the previous fix.

With three or more live runtimes the reason read "another live model still
holds adapter-a and adapter-b", a singular subject attributing several
adapters to one model, when each runtime attaches one adapter per kind. The
subject now agrees in number with what is held.

LoadRecord still stored its own copy of the manifest sha256, which is the
same second source of truth this work removed for kind, adapter_id and path:
the only constructor copied it, and nothing stopped a caller from passing a
hash that disagreed with the source handed in. It is a property now, so
runtime.py keeps reading record.sha256 and there is one value.

Also recorded, measured by the reviewer and deliberately not treated as
defects: a row for a kind with nothing on disk now reports base_model as null
rather than the runtime's model id, since that row describes no adapter at
all; the same adapter id can appear in both a loaded row and a shadowed row
when it is attached while another copy wins the mount, and both rows are
true; and when the attached adapter is deleted from disk the row says missing
with null identity instead of claiming a gone model.

Three tests carry this: the three-runtime case asserts the plural wording, and
both fixes were mutation-checked (dropping the plural branch fails two tests,
restoring the stored hash fails the generation test).

files: 2 errors, identical to the stashed HEAD tree, net zero. pyright: 2
errors, both the known qwen_vl_utils tuple artifact.

ZacharyZhang-NY 7ec25bf629 Make a loaded adapter row describe the adapter it actually loaded
The report row contradicted itself. The reason came from the attachment
record while path, adapter_id, base_model, origin and cartridge_id came from
whatever resolution preferred right now. Reproduced without any stubbing: a
live model holds adapter X, training writes a newer adapter Y, and the
endpoint then answers state=loaded adapter_id=adapter-Y while explaining
"attached to the live model from .../x-attached". A JSON consumer reads the
identity columns as the loaded adapter and gets the wrong one.

The same root cause had a second symptom. Attachments were keyed by kind with
last-writer-wins, so with two live runtimes one unload made the row claim
"that model is gone" while the other runtime's model was still alive holding
its adapter.

LoadRecord now carries the AdapterSource it came from, so a row built from a
record has exactly one identity, and the registry is a list of attachments
each holding its own weak reference: loaded means some live model still holds
an adapter, and when more than one does the reason names the other.

clear_loads had no production caller once unload stopped erasing the process
record, so it is gone rather than kept as a test-only entry point.

Two tests pin both symptoms, and both were mutation-checked: restoring the
identity to the resolved source fails the first, and letting
live_attachments ignore liveness fails the second and the unload test.

pytest -q: 227 passed. ruff clean. mypy cold cache on the three touched
source files: 2 errors, byte-identical to the same command on a stashed HEAD
tree, net zero. pyright: 2 errors, both the known qwen_vl_utils tuple
artifact, unchanged from HEAD.

ZacharyZhang-NY 2d1cfdadc7 Stop the adapter report from claiming things that are not true
Independent review of the adapter resolution work found six defects, all
real and all fixed here.

A kind whose only candidates were rejected had no winning path, so its row
carried path=None and the rejected candidate fell into the shadow loop: the
report said "another adapter of this kind wins for the current mount" while
nothing won, and the real deferred reason was buried. A shadow row now
requires a winner and names it.

"loaded" was backed by a process-global record, so a fresh runtime with no
model still claimed a live adapter. The record is now held by the instance
that attached it, and the report keeps a weak reference: while the model
lives the row says loaded, once it is gone the row says available and
explains that the model is gone.

The sort key had lost the manifest's cartridge tag, which changed which
adapter loads on any machine holding a tagged library copy, and neither the
commit message nor the checklist said so. The tag is back as the middle key.

Proof checks resolved through the library while generation resolved through
the mount, so one proof payload could name two different copies. Both now
resolve the way generation does.

loaded_at was written and never read, so it is gone. The checklist claim that
peft is lazily imported in one place was true only for generation and is now
scoped that way.

The four generation paths and status() had no test coverage, so "no function
was lost" rested on reading. One test now walks the transformers prompt path
end to end with stub weights and asserts the generation answer carries the
adapter it attached.

pytest -q: 225 passed. ruff clean. mypy on the three touched source files:
2 errors, the identical 2 on a stashed HEAD tree, net zero. pyright: 2
errors, both the known qwen_vl_utils tuple artifact, unchanged from HEAD.

ZacharyZhang-NY 2fbb4af96b Resolve adapters by what is mounted, and say why each kind is not loaded
runtime.py resolved adapters at 7 call sites and only ever looked in the
adapter library, so an adapter attached to a cartridge (cartridge.py:230
copies it into <cartridge>/adapters/{kind}/) was never loaded by anything.
Resolution now lives in adapters.py: it reads the mounted cartridge set,
prefers a mounted cartridge's copy over the library, and answers every one
of the six kinds with a state the facts support — loaded, available,
deferred (base_model mismatch or missing weights, both models named in the
reason), missing — plus a shadowed row for each adapter that lost the
choice. A mounted cartridge is the scenario selection; neither manifest
carries a scenario field, so none was invented.

Two bugs the new tests caught: the preference sort lost reverse=True, so a
library adapter beat a mounted cartridge's copy, and the load branch had
never been executed by a test. Stub weights now prove peft is asked to
attach, that the returned model is put in eval mode, and that the endpoint
reports loaded until unload clears it.

Faces: GET /api/runtime/adapters, `ely-eye adapters`, and a log line naming
the reason whenever a generation runs without an adapter.

Gates: 222 passed; ruff clean; mypy cold cache on the 7 touched files gives
the same 2 errors as HEAD's runtime.py, and pyright gives the same 2 as
HEAD — both are qwen_vl_utils typing artifacts (process_vision_info returns
2 or 3 values depending on return_video_kwargs; the product takes 2).

ZacharyZhang-NY 9f0f7993e5 Record that the speech work passed independent review on round three
The reviewer ran the harness and the gates itself rather than trusting the
prose: round one failed on 11 defects, round two on 4, round three passed
after re-running bench.asr_check in a fresh process, re-checking the stamp
chain and matching 18 checklist assertions.
2026-10-07 22:49:29 -04:00
ZacharyZhang-NY 2fa91abbc5 Freeze the speech report against the commit that fixes the prose
The report is regenerated after 10a39c5 so its stamp names the code it
describes. Speed is quoted as a range in the checklist because transcribe
seconds move with machine load (3.26s then 3.12s on this box) while WER,
denominators and word counts do not move at all.

Numbers: 258.18s of audio, WER 0.242 over 533 reference words, 80 audio atoms
and 563 word timestamps read back from the store, 0 out of order and 0 before
their own segment measured on the stored words.
2026-10-07 22:39:27 -04:00
ZacharyZhang-NY 10a39c5125 Stop the prose from drifting away from the report it cites
A second review found three numbers left behind when the report was
regenerated with pinned decoding:

- the transcriber docstring claimed 1.7 s for 88.9 s of speech; the report
  says 1.39 s, and 1.7 came from the unpinned run. The docstring now names no
  number, so it cannot go stale, and it stops calling container seconds speech
  with voice activity detection off.
- the checklist still quoted 3.55 s and 61.6x / 73.0x / 97.7x; the frozen
  report says 3.26 s and 63.9x / 82.4x / 112.2x.
- the checklist still said 31 speech segments for one mp4; with greedy decoding
  that video yields 38, which is where the store's 80 atoms come from
  (38 + 39 + 3).

The report also credited the store with timing invariants that were measured on
the model's answer. The harness now recomputes them from the words as stored
(out_of_order_in_store, before_their_segment_in_store) and says so.

Verification: 212 passed, ruff clean, mypy clean on both touched files with a
cold cache, pyright 0 errors.

ZacharyZhang-NY 836a4908e1 Freeze the ASR report against the commit that carries the code
Generated by .venv/bin/python -m bench.asr_check after 709104e, so the stamp
names the code under measurement instead of its parent. Two passes agreed:
WER 0.242 both times, transcripts byte-identical.
2026-10-07 22:24:56 -04:00
ZacharyZhang-NY 709104e809 Make the speech numbers reproducible instead of merely printed
A review of 5289cb4 found the ASR report was not honest arithmetic:

- "audio s" was the last segment's end, not the media length. The real
  container durations are 88.93 / 109.18 / 60.07 s, so the report understated
  the audio by 48 s and every speed cell was wrong.
- Decoding was unpinned, so a rerun was a new draw: WER moved 0.242 to 0.262
  and one video moved 0.278 to 0.583. Greedy single-temperature decoding with
  no carry-over now answers the same way twice, and the harness runs the pass
  twice to show it.
- The report claimed its WER was an upper bound. It is not a bound in either
  direction: a caption that drops words also hides words the model dropped.
  The denominators (201 / 296 / 36 reference words) are printed instead.
- "66 speech atoms" was bench-side arithmetic. The store now says 80 audio
  atoms carrying 563 word timestamps, read back after a real ingest.

Same silent-skip bug in a second place: a text file over max_text_file_bytes
returned an empty batch with no reason. It raises FileTooLarge with its size,
and a walk records that refusal like any other.

Also fixed from the same review: the Go search tool never published the audio
modality, cli_senses carried a second json_dump, the no-audio-track branch had
a test that fed it markdown, _seconds was an empty wrapper, and the docstring
quoted a speed no report measured.

Gate root cause: bench/tests imports the bench package by name with no root
conftest, so bare pytest could not collect it at all. pythonpath in pyproject
fixes both launch styles; 212 tests pass either way.

Verification: 212 passed (bare pytest and python -m pytest), ruff clean,
mypy clean on the six touched files with a cold cache, repo-wide mypy 24/6
unchanged from HEAD, pyright 0 errors on the touched files, go build/vet/test
and gofmt clean.

ZacharyZhang-NY 5289cb4b01 Give spoken words a memory with an instant attached
An audio file used to produce no memory at all: _ingest_file returned an empty
batch for any suffix it did not know, with no log and no reason. It now raises
UnsupportedFile when you name the file and records a SkippedFile when it was a
directory walk, so a refusal is visible either way.

Speech is measured, not promised. Over 210.5 seconds of real Video-MME audio,
faster-whisper-tiny on CPU int8 transcribed at 51x realtime and reached word
error rate 0.242 against community subtitles nobody here wrote (a caption track
drops words a transcript keeps, so that is an upper bound). 66 speech atoms now
carry 550 word-level timestamps, 0 words out of order and 0 starting before
their own segment. The snapshot is 78.2 MB, under the 500 MB cap, and the report
is bench/reports/ASR.md.

Two library facts were measured rather than assumed. faster-whisper's own audio
loader is broken against PyAV 19 (av.open got an unexpected keyword
'metadata_errors') and it declares av with no version bound, so asr.decode_audio
decodes with PyAV directly and hands the model a float32 array instead of
pinning an old av with no cp314 wheel. And av.Error does not exist on PyAV 19 -
the real base is av.error.FFmpegError - so that is the only thing caught and my
own ValueErrors keep their messages.

Files over the 500-line rule were split rather than excused: ingestion.py (748)
into ingestion_common / ingestion_media / ingestion_repository / ingestion, and
cli.py (544) into cli_senses plus cli_common, following the cli_transactive
register pattern. MediaIngest declares _source_record abstract, so a half-wired
host fails at construction instead of returning None.

Verification: 207 tests pass; ruff clean on the 13 touched files; mypy clean on
them, and repo-wide mypy fell from 29 errors to 24 (5 fixed, none added);
pyright reports 0 errors on the touched files.

ZacharyZhang-NY 03ca35763f Give wordless pictures a way to be found
A screenshot with no OCR-able words used to be a memory nothing could
reach. It now has a vector, and a question can be asked with it.

- picture space: Xenova/chinese-clip-vit-base-patch16 fp16 ONNX, 361MB,
  sha256 0fad978faa89b85f…, CPU-runnable on the onnxruntime the repo
  already ships. Text 76ms, image 29ms/image at batch 8. The ONNX contract
  was measured, not assumed: it is the fused contrastive graph, so the
  unused tower is fed a placeholder row, and the tokenizer must be
  BertTokenizer — a CLIP tokenizer emits ids past the embedding table.
- visual_index.py keeps picture vectors in their own family beside the
  text ones, keyed by atom id, and refuses to answer when the map and the
  array disagree. retrieval.py stays under 500 lines.
- a search can be asked with a picture, and when the words come up thin
  the picture ranking joins the fusion — but only then, so a text query
  never pays for the encoder.
- visual tokens are counted at 32x32 patches (migration v7): 21,325 image
  atoms went from 5,331 to 34,618 tokens, and the library from 29.9M to
  84.2M. The 100M capsule fits this 50,278-file corpus and nothing much
  larger — that is what the claim actually means.
- the vision-language describer is written and gated: with no snapshot an
  atom records "deferred: no vision-language model snapshot"; a broken
  model becomes a note on the atom instead of a dead ingest.
- forget now voids the picture index and the copy this process holds, so
  a forgotten picture stops answering from RAM.

Measured, six arms, ScreenSpot-v2 (554 icon crops, 408 whole screenshots),
bench/reports/VISUAL.md:
  icon pool      picture 0.208  words 0.175  chance 0.018
  screenshot pool words 0.384   picture 0.215
  screenshot to icon 0.108  — CLIP is a whole-image model, not a grounding
  model: it cannot point at one small icon inside a screen.
  within one screen MRR 0.908 (recall@10 is 1.000 there only because
  chance is 1.000 too, so MRR is the only honest number in that row).
ScreenSpot-v2 instructions are all English, so this run does not test the
bilingual claim and the report says so.

Gates: 199 tests, ruff clean on 17 files, mypy clean on 16 (fresh cache),
the repo's own pyright 0 errors on the 12 files touched.

ZacharyZhang-NY 7e1fe649f6 Stop paying for words every document carries
The product's own search answered in p50 20.16s on 165,973 atoms. The SQL
rewrite brought that to 0.68s; this brings it to 57ms and says why the rest was
there.

The cost was not SQL. An OR MATCH scores every row it touches, and a question
carries words the whole library carries: `"parsing"* OR "error"* OR "in"* OR
"the"* OR "pdf"* OR "converter"*` matched 127,145 atoms and took 305ms, while a
CJK bigram phrase query with 32 matches took 1.0ms. Latency tracked match count.

- text_index.rare_terms asks the index which of its own words are noise: count
  each term, drop the ones over 5% of the library, keep the rarest few when all
  of them are common. No stop-word list; a corpus of PDFs and a corpus of shell
  history get different answers. 0.05 is swept, not chosen — on n=173
  recall@10 peaks there (0.899 / p50 58.6ms) against 0.893 / 112.9ms at 0.20
  and 0.844 / 13.4ms at 0.01.
- The bound is a cost, not a claim about rarity: `cap = max(int(total*fraction)+1, 2)`,
  so a word matching one atom in eleven is kept — scoring one candidate is free.
  A capped count cannot rank words that all saturate, so those few are counted
  exactly.
- Schema v6 adds `term_df`: a word is counted once and the next question pays
  nothing. Every atom write clears it, so a stored count cannot outlive the
  library it described. Cold p50 73ms, warm 63ms, 1,324 terms cached.
- The denominator is `count(*) FROM atoms` (0.01ms) rather than
  `count(*) FROM atom_fts` (37ms cold): FTS rows are written and deleted with
  their atoms, so the two counts move together and only one of them is free.

SCALE.md, idle machine (load 1.76, 32 cores, 4 threads per query):
165,973 atoms — 1.66x the contract's 100k — 300 probes, p50 57ms, p95 138ms.
Against the frozen baseline of 20.16s that is 354x. Holder-scoped (n=173):
recall@10 0.870, MRR 0.740, p50 62ms.

Verification: pytest backend/tests bench/tests -q -> 173 passed (5 new
text_index tests: the common word is dropped and the rare one still answers, an
all-common query keeps its rarest words in order, a one-word query is never
filtered, an empty library keeps everything, and a write voids the counts);
ruff clean; mypy fresh cache clean; pyright 0 errors on the touched files.

ZacharyZhang-NY 6de7439db6 Score the product path against corpus ids, not storage ids
The frozen baseline claimed the product's top-10 shared 0.0% with the fast
BM25 path. That was a harness bug: gold names a corpus source
(mmlongbench:PH_2016.06.08_Economy-Final.pdf) while the store names a content
hash (PH_2016_06_08_Economy_Final_10e57152f44d1a2b), so the two id spaces never
met and the right document, ranked first, scored as a miss.

- bench/systems.py: `_corpus_ids` joins store sources through the
  `source_map()` the counterpart already uses, and refuses a store whose
  sources are not corpus files instead of silently scoring zero.
- bench/systems.py: `live_product_rankings(..., as_holders=...)` asks the
  product as the query's own holder, which is how the counterpart is scored.
- bench/run.py: the live section now reports recall@10 / MRR / hit@10 with a
  95% lower bound, and probes 300 queries instead of 40 — the SQL path answers
  in well under a second, so the old cap was a cost estimate that expired.
- bench/run.py: `--name CURRENT` writes a post-P0 report beside the frozen
  BASELINE without touching it, stamped with the commit and the store schema
  version the pass started on (the live pass migrates the store mid-run, so a
  plain stamp would be a lie).
- bench/stamp_holders.py: the pre-P0 store holds 165,973 memories nobody owns.
  The corpus index states the owner, so holders, scenarios and event times are
  stamped in place — 165,973 atoms across 50,278 sources, 0 left unowned.

Numbers, same machine, load 1.0-1.7:
- CURRENT (post-P0, schema v5): no_rerank recall@10 0.565 p50 0.643s;
  fusion+rerank 0.453 p50 7.000s; graph 0.001.
- Product as its holder: recall@10 0.870, MRR 0.740, n=173.
- Counterpart: mem0_flat holder scope 0.866, whole corpus 0.412; the holder
  boundary is worth +0.454 with an identical ranker and identical items.

Verification: pytest backend/tests bench/tests -q -> 173 passed; ruff and mypy

ZacharyZhang-NY 4ab36cd5eb Make the proof suite say what it actually ran
The suite had fifteen checks that could not lose. The visual HashHop arena
painted a cyan line and a white ring on the answer slot, then asked the model
to find the answer by looking; the collector re-rolled puzzles until the
running rate crossed its target; the cache check passed if any layer had ever
recorded an entry; the repository check passed on a call graph built in memory
without touching the store; the research-module check asserted non-empty lists
of SHA256-derived placeholder vectors and so could not fail.

Each check now answers for one claim and reports a verdict the reader can act
on: passed, failed, deferred, or removed. A deferred row names what is missing
and the command that would settle it; a removed row says why the old claim was
withdrawn. The suite verdict is failed > deferred > passed, so a claim that
never ran holds the whole report back from saying "proven".

- evals.py (2427 lines) becomes the proofs/ package; largest module 445 lines.
- proofs/__main__.py deleted: it duplicated PRDProofSuite.latest() with a
  different glob. proofs/table.py renders; latest-proof-suite is the one face
  and exits 1 on a failed verdict.
- The arena paints nothing. The puzzle id is printed on its tile instead,
  because removing the ink without it removes the question.
- HashHop runs a fixed 8 puzzles per depth instead of re-rolling to target.
- The contradiction corpus moves from code to contradiction_scenarios.json;
  the check stays deferred while the corpus is the one this repo authored.
- The cache check compiles a nonce question over a real atom twice and reads
  the miss to hit movement; an empty store fails instead of agreeing by luck.
- The repository check requires rows in the store; the research-module check is
  removed.

Two product bugs surfaced on the way:
- text_index.fts_query joined Latin terms with a space, which FTS5 reads as
  AND, so a question longer than its answer retrieved nothing. Terms are ORed
  and bm25 rank orders the candidates.
- profiles.windows_path_to_wsl prefixed /mnt/ onto an already-POSIX path with
  an empty drive, producing /mnt//home/... and failing every launcher probe.

Verification: 168 passed (pytest backend/tests bench/tests); ruff clean on the
proofs package, cli.py, text_index.py, profiles.py, and both test files; mypy
clean on 16 files with a fresh cache; pyright reports 0 errors on proofs/ and
the test file. Ruff debt elsewhere is unchanged: 19 errors in seven files this
commit does not touch, measured against the same files at HEAD.

ZacharyZhang-NY dfc6cd4c28 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.

ZacharyZhang-NY 9fe13fffb3 Make a cartridge a scope you mount, not only a bundle you export
A cartridge used to be an export: materialize it, hash it, and never let it
change behaviour again. The transactive-memory promise needs the opposite —
mounting the home cartridge must make the work cartridge's memories
unfindable, and appending to a cartridge must make a new memory findable
through it.

Cartridge scope (schema v2 -> v3):
- cartridge_atoms (which atoms are in which cartridge) and cartridge_mounts
  (which cartridges this machine has mounted now); both rebuilt on reopen,
  because a mount is a machine-local state, not a fact about the data.
- mount / switch / unmount / append refuse a cartridge that was built for a
  different runtime, naming every differing field instead of a boolean.
- append rewrites atoms.parquet and sparse_index.bm25.zst, recomputes DNA and
  the KV fingerprint, and keeps the cartridges row in one SQLite transaction;
  the files are written first so a failed export cannot leave a half-cartridge
  in the database.
- RetrievalService.search() now ranks inside the mounted scope by default, and
  an explicit cartridge_ids filter overrides the mount. Nothing mounted means
  the whole library, so an empty store behaves as it did before.
- forget() removes the forgotten atoms from every cartridge's membership:
  forgetting must not leave a memory retrievable through a cartridge.

KV fingerprint (kv_fingerprint.py, stored in the manifest):
- model / tokenizer / chat-template hashes, the RoPE block (factor,
  original_max_position_embeddings, mrope_interleaved, mrope_section,
  partial_rotary_factor), the adapter hash, the context length, the engine
  version, and the fingerprint format version.
- A snapshot we cannot read is recorded as unverifiable and listed in
  unverifiable_fields; a blind machine refuses to mount rather than pretending
  the runtime matches, because a wrong RoPE factor silently corrupts retrieval.

Two defects found by running the new tests, not by reading:
- atoms.parquet could not export a memory at all: pyarrow refuses a struct with
  no child field, so metadata={} failed the whole table. The six JSON columns
  are now written as JSON text and decoded by the cartridge reader.
- materialize() inserted cartridge membership before the cartridges row existed,
  so the foreign key rejected every cartridge.

api.py crossed 500 lines, so the cartridge and mount routes moved to
api_cartridges.py. That module must not use `from __future__ import
annotations`: FastAPI then resolves Depends(settings_dep) against module
globals, where the injected dependency is only a parameter of register(), and
every route starts demanding settings as a query parameter.

Verification: 138 pytest passed (26 new: 10 fingerprint, 16 scope), Go
build/vet/gofmt/test clean, and scripts/mcp_write_smoke.sh now proves the whole
loop across two processes - mount narrows search, a memory written after the
upload is invisible until append_to_cartridge, unmount restores the library,
and rewriting the RoPE factor makes mount_cartridge refuse with "rope: factor:
cartridge 4.0 vs local 2.0". ruff clean on every touched file (the 20 remaining
package errors are in files this change did not touch; HEAD had 25). mypy: one
error, the pre-existing np.savez stub artifact at cartridge_assets.py:329
(HEAD:320). Repo pyright: 62 errors, unchanged from the p0-3 ledger.

ZacharyZhang-NY 674c88e84e Rank memory search in SQL instead of rebuilding BM25 in Python
The product path pulled every atom into Python and rebuilt a BM25Okapi
index per query: p50 20.16s over 165,973 atoms. It now runs one SQLite
statement with LIMIT/OFFSET.

- text_index.py: one normalizer for both sides of the index. CJK runs are
  split per character (unicode61 cannot segment them), camelCase and
  separators are split so "search atoms" finds SearchAtoms, latin tokens
  get a prefix match. Rows written before this existed hold raw text in
  atom_fts, so schema v3 rebuilds the index on upgrade.
- retrieval.py: filters (holder / scenario / source / modality / since /
  until / min_trust), a base64 cursor, and reciprocal rank fusion in place
  of the 0.55/0.35/0.10 blend whose graph term was always zero.
- An empty result is {status: "no_match"}, not a bare array.
- Go: search_atoms and compile_context rank through POST /api/search. The
  second Go tokenizer is deleted; two implementations could drift, which
  is what the MCP/HTTP parity requirement forbids.
- db.py passed 500 lines, so the row codec moved to row_codec.py.
- Tooling: installed the repo's own pyright. pyrightconfig.json had no
  exclude and swept the downloaded corpus (1171 errors); with excludes the
  count is 62, all pre-existing (evals 48, profiles 4, training 4,
  ingestion 3, runtime 2, cartridge_assets 1). backend/pyproject.toml
  carried a second [tool.pyright] that shadowed the root config; deleted.
- bench/scale_check.py measures the product search at corpus size. The
  100k-atom p50 number is not written until it is measured on an idle
  machine.

Verification: 112 pytest passed; go build/vet/test clean, gofmt clean;
ruff clean on every touched file; mypy clean on the 14 touched Python
files; repo pyright 62 errors, unchanged per-file ledger.

ZacharyZhang-NY 3d792417cf Give the write path a CLI and an MCP face
remember / supersede / forget now reach the one Python writer from a
terminal, from MCP, and from HTTP. The server, not the caller, decides
who owns a memory.

- cli: remember, supersede, forget. --holder falls back to
  settings.default_holder until the holder registry lands. Timestamps are
  parsed once with one clear message.
- ingestion: import pymupdf as fitz. The deprecated fitz import printed a
  warning to stdout, so every CLI command's JSON answer was unparseable.
- mcp: remember, supersede_memory and forget_memory forward to the Python
  writer over HTTP (ELY_EYE_API, default http://127.0.0.1:8765). SQLite
  stays read-only to the Go side, so the write rules live in one place.
- mcp reads follow schema v2: atoms.time became ingested_at, and reads go
  through v_atoms_current, so a superseded memory stops being findable.
  holder, origin, scenario and event_time now show up in fetch_atom and
  search_atoms.
- scripts/mcp_write_smoke.sh proves the loop end to end: remember, search,
  supersede, forget, then not found.

Evidence: 92 pytest passed; go build, go vet and go test clean; mypy clean
on the 10 touched source files with a fresh cache; ruff clean except a
pre-existing B008 at cli.py:292, identical at HEAD.
2026-10-07 15:09:17 -04:00
ZacharyZhang-NY 181f6bf57e Give every memory a holder, an origin, a time and a scenario
An EvidenceAtom could say what was remembered and nothing else: not whose memory it
is, not where it came from, not when it was true, not in what situation it may be
used. The baseline measured the cost of that: the same ranker scores recall@10 0.412
over the whole corpus and 0.866 inside one holder's memory, so the missing holder
column is worth more than any ranking change in the ablation.

- schemas.py: MemoryOrigin, TimePrecision, Visibility; EvidenceAtom gains holder_id,
  origin, scenario, event_time / event_time_end / event_time_precision /
  event_time_source, valid_from / valid_to, supersedes, visibility, retention_until.
  `time` is renamed `ingested_at` — ingestion time gets one name, not two.
  A validator refuses valid_to before valid_from, event_time_end before event_time,
  and an atom that supersedes itself.
- migrations.py: schema v2 with PRAGMA user_version. A first-version database is
  upgraded in place (ALTER + RENAME COLUMN), rows intact, and a database newer than
  this build refuses to open instead of being silently downgraded.
- v_atoms_current hides memories that are closed, lapsed or not yet begun; unknown
  bounds read as visible. Time travel is db.atoms_as_of(moment, holder) because a
  SQLite view cannot take a parameter.
- evaluation_schemas.py: the proof and benchmark report shapes move out of schemas.py
  to keep it under the file-size limit; importers follow.
- backend/tests/test_memory_schema.py: 8 tests, including the v1 -> v2 upgrade and the
  validity timeline.

Verification of record: pytest backend/tests bench/tests -q -> 70 passed; ruff check on
every touched file -> all checks passed; mypy (fresh cache) on db.py, migrations.py,
schemas.py, evaluation_schemas.py and backend/tests -> no issues. evals.py carries 40
pre-existing mypy errors at HEAD and 40 after this change (measured on both copies);
its pyright findings are the same debt, and p0-6 rewrites that file. `peft` and
`pyarrow.parquet` "could not be resolved" is the documented pyright artifact: pi-lens
runs it with 0 config files, and both import at runtime.

ZacharyZhang-NY 00dc9f8eaf Re-measure arm latency on a warm-model sample instead of trusting the cache
rankings.jsonl stores the seconds each query took, so the report inherited whatever
the machine was doing at the time: the frozen baseline's dense latency included a
per-query model load, and the 50,000-source row moved from 1.315s to 0.809s between
two runs of identical code.

- bench/run.py: --remeasure-latency N re-times a stride sample with warm models and
  replaces each arm's latency section, recording the sample size and a note; recall
  stays a full-pass number. BASELINE.md prints that note under the table.
- bench/tests/test_joint.py: 62 tests total.

Verification: pytest bench/tests -q -> 62 passed; ruff check bench/ -> all checks
passed; mypy (fresh cache) -> no issues in 25 source files.
2026-10-07 13:39:17 -04:00
ZacharyZhang-NY dbe1d2cc82 Measure the counterpart honestly: warm models, vectorised search, scope split
Three defects made the external baseline numbers and labels wrong.

- bench/systems.py: _sentence_model rebuilt the model on every query, so dense arm
  latency was mostly model loading and the latency-vs-size curve was flat because a
  constant dominated it. Models are now cached per process.
- bench/counterpart.py: visible() and search() walked 404k Python objects per query.
  Per-item holder/source/time columns are built once and the query path is numpy;
  12.5 queries/s instead of 0.7.
- bench/metrics.py: the aggregate key was named wrong_holder_confidence_unanswerable
  while it counts top hits that ARE from the asking holder. BASELINE.md read that
  backwards. Renamed to top_hit_from_holder_unanswerable and the sentence rewritten.
- bench/run_external.py: the by-modality table read row['answerable'] but aggregate
  emits n_answerable, so the writer died after scoring finished. Each store is now
  scored twice, [holder scope] and [whole corpus], so the gain from the holder
  boundary is separable from the gain from ranking; progress lines every 500 queries.

Verification: pytest bench/tests -q -> 61 passed; ruff check bench/ -> all checks
passed; mypy (fresh cache) -> no issues in 25 source files.

ZacharyZhang-NY c4e2982506 Record machine load with every latency number
Latency measured while another job hogs the cores is not comparable: the scale curve
moved from 1.315s to 0.809s at 50,000 sources between two runs of the same code.

- bench/systems.py: machine_facts() reports cpus plus the 1/5/15 minute load average.
- bench/run.py, bench/run_external.py: both reports carry it, and BASELINE.md labels
  the latency table a ceiling when the machine was busy.

Verification: pytest bench/tests -q -> 60 passed; ruff check bench/ -> all checks
passed; mypy (fresh cache) -> no issues in 25 source files.

ZacharyZhang-NY 61f6506104 Explain the product path's zero overlap and fix the report writer
The frozen baseline showed the unmodified RetrievalService agreeing with an equivalent
BM25 index on 0% of its top ten results. Reproduced by hand: its top ten atoms came
from one document's pages, so a source-level ranking cannot overlap it.

- bench/systems.py: live_product_rankings also counts distinct sources behind the
  product's top-k atoms.
- bench/run.py: scale probes no longer filtered by gold (a source prefix keeps almost
  no gold, so the 500/2,000/10,000 rows were silently skipped); scale_arm_names reads
  only latency dicts, which is what crashed write_markdown on the note field; the
  unanswerable share is computed instead of hard-coded.
- bench/tests/test_joint.py: 60 tests total, including the writer regression.

Verification: pytest bench/tests -q -> 60 passed; ruff check bench/ -> all checks
passed; mypy (fresh cache) -> no issues in 25 source files.
2026-10-07 11:33:44 -04:00
ZacharyZhang-NY 29163632af Score all five arms in one resumable pass
The per-arm runner recomputed BM25 and the dense matmul for every arm, which put the
full ablation at roughly 16 hours and left no way to survive a kill. JointRunner
computes each signal once per query, attributes latency to the components each arm
uses, and checkpoints every query to runs/baseline/rankings.jsonl.

- bench/systems.py: JointRunner + ARM_COMPONENTS signal attribution.
- bench/run.py: joint pass, rankings cache with a run fingerprint, per-query resume,
  latency summary, resident-memory progress lines.
- bench/tests/test_joint.py: joint rankings equal the per-arm rankings for all five
  arms; the sparse corpus is scored once even with three arms that need it; cache
  fingerprint mismatch and malformed rows fail fast.
- bench/reports/EXTERNAL_APPENDIX.md: what a real Mem0/Zep run would cost, and which
  published numbers are comparable at all.

Verification: pytest bench/tests -q -> 57 passed; ruff check bench/ -> all checks
passed; mypy (fresh cache) -> no issues in 25 source files.
2026-10-07 01:45:55 -04:00
ZacharyZhang-NY a4953335e7 Join the product's source ids to the benchmark's before scoring
The merged database names a source by content hash (`11089_4f2a...`) while the
frozen sets name the same file by its corpus id, so every arm scored 0.000 until
load_atoms joined atoms through sources.path. It now returns corpus ids and
refuses an atom it cannot trace to a corpus file.

Also fixes found by running the harness:
- merge rebuilt atom_fts from the deduped atoms table; two attempts on one file
  left 288,266 fts rows for 165,973 atoms.
- merge accepts the two honest reasons a corpus file has no product source
  (500 byte-identical LongMemEval sessions collapse under content hashing, and
  12 photos that ONNX Runtime cannot decode) and reports them.
- --arms used action=extend against a non-empty default, so naming two arms ran
  seven.
- the dense cache is keyed by the atom set, so a scale-curve subset cannot be
  scored with full-corpus vectors.
- write_markdown crashed on a run that covered only some modalities.

ZacharyZhang-NY fc0698c242 Add baseline harness: ingest, metrics, ablation arms, external counterpart, audit
- bench/ingest_baseline.py drives the unmodified product IngestionService over
  all 50,789 corpus files in sharded SQLite DBs, then merges them. Thread and
  memory ceilings are set explicitly: ONNX Runtime defaulted to every core
  (95 threads/worker, load 490) and its CPU arena kept freed pages mapped,
  which OOM-killed workers.
- bench/metrics.py: recall@k, MRR, nDCG@10, Wilson lower bound, chance
  baseline. No model, no product import, so the scorer cannot grade itself.
- bench/systems.py + bench/run.py: the five ablation arms over the merged DB,
  latency percentiles, scale curve, and a top-10 equivalence check against the
  live RetrievalService.
- bench/counterpart.py + bench/run_external.py: in-repo Mem0-style flat store
  and Zep-style temporal store as the external reference point.
- bench/audit.py: enforces single-attempt scoring, frozen n, a chance row
  beside every score, and producer != verifier. It already flags the product's
  retry-until-target loop at backend/src/ely_eye/evals.py:2351.
- backend/pyproject.toml: rapidocr-onnxruntime>=1.4.4 was unsatisfiable
  (PyPI maxes at 1.2.3); the successor is the renamed rapidocr package.

Ground truth comes only from third-party annotations (MMLongBench-Doc
evidence_page_ids, VisRAG qrels, ScreenSpot-v2 bboxes, Video-MME QA,
LongMemEval answer_session_ids, CodeSearchNet func_path+func_name) and
from document structure; no model judgement is used anywhere.

  annotation_source, license, files[]; verified by bench.manifest_check
- bench/sets/{pdf,image,ui_screenshot,video,code,conversation}.{jsonl} plus
  corpus indexes and a manifest that freezes every file's sha256
- 2,928 answerable + 2,380 unanswerable queries over 854 holders; every
  query carries scope {holder, scenario, as_of} for transactive routing
- bench/validate_sets.py fails on missing gold, holder mismatch between
