… PPR, HNSW, reranker, Louvain, LME bench
Seven additive patches. Every existing default is preserved; new capabilities
are opt-in via new constructor params with graceful fallbacks if deps missing.
1. Salience decay (memory_client.py)
- _effective_salience(): base * exp(-k*age) + log1p(access) * alpha
- Applied in both C++ fast-path and Python path of recall()
- Non-persistent (computed on read) — no write contention
- Existing stored salience column becomes the "base" the dream engine can nudge
2. Bi-temporal edges (memory_client.py SQLite schema)
- connections table gains event_time, ingestion_time, valid_from, valid_to
(all NULL by default; pre-existing edges are always-valid)
- Idempotent ALTER TABLE migration on open
- add_connection() accepts the new fields; get_connections(at_time=...)
filters to edges valid at a given instant. Graphiti-style.
3. Cross-encoder reranker (memory_client.py)
- Opt-in via NeuralMemory(rerank=True, rerank_model=...)
- Uses sentence-transformers CrossEncoder lazily; silent no-op if absent
- Reranks top-k*3 after initial scoring in both C++ and Python paths
4. PPR engine for think() (memory_client.py)
- think(engine='ppr', alpha=0.15) runs Personalized PageRank (HippoRAG-2 style)
- Default engine='bfs' preserves the original decay-BFS spreading activation
- networkx preferred; pure-numpy power-iteration fallback when unavailable
5. HNSW index + lazy graph load (memory_client.py)
- Opt-in hnswlib index for Python-only retrieval path (when C++ bridge absent)
- lazy_graph=True defers _load_from_store; nodes hydrate on demand via
_ensure_node(). PPR in lazy mode expands two hops before running.
- Auto capacity growth; graceful disable if hnswlib import fails
6. Louvain community detection (dream_engine.py Insight phase)
- _detect_communities(): networkx louvain_communities first, BFS fallback
- Deterministic seed=42 so repeated dreams yield comparable cuts
7. LongMemEval-style benchmark (benchmarks/lme_eval.py)
- Synthetic 15-record smoke corpus built-in; --dataset for real LME JSONL
- Reports Recall@{1,5,10}, MRR, p50/p95 latency
- Flags for --rerank / --use-hnsw / --engine to A/B configurations
Also updates install.sh to probe for networkx and hnswlib as optional deps
with the same warn-if-absent pattern used for sentence-transformers.
Tests: existing test_suite.py and test_integration.py pass; the two failing
tests on this machine are pre-existing (C++ library not built locally).

sync.sh propagates python/ → hermes-plugin/. The hermes-agent plugin dir (~/.hermes/hermes-agent/plugins/memory/neural) is a symlink into the latter, so this commit seals the Phase-B upgrades as the live plugin code. Mirrors commit 2dbf4e0: salience decay, bi-temporal edges, cross-encoder reranker, PPR think() engine, HNSW+lazy-load, Louvain community detection. Verified end-to-end through ~/.hermes/hermes-agent/venv/bin/python3 (3.11): - import NeuralMemory OK, HNSW active, networkx+hnswlib available - recall() surfaces salience_factor, bi-temporal at_time filter expires edges correctly - think(engine='ppr') returns results Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Seven additive follow-ups on the Phase B branch. All additive; defaults
preserve prior behavior.
H1 — hnsw_ef constructor param (was hardcoded)
H5 — salience_multiply opt-out flag (clean revert for Bucket-C shift)
H7 — stats() reports feature availability (hnsw_active, louvain_available,
reranker_loaded, salience_multiply, rerank_enabled, hnsw_ef, cpp_available)
H10 — neural_dashboard as 7th plugin tool (wraps tools/dashboard/generate.py)
H11 — tools/compact.py weekly compaction (dry-run default; sticky-label whitelist)
H12 — ~/.local/bin/remember shell CLI (cross-agent write + recall)
H13 P2 — NeuralMemoryProvider.on_memory_write() now mirrors built-in memory
writes into neural-memory with rotation-candidate vs mirror-from-default
labels via _is_identity_grade() heuristic; Phase 1 skill shipped separately
at ~/.hermes/skills/meta/dual-memory-rotation-hygiene/SKILL.md
Also: tools/obsidian_sync.py (live-graph generator — Phase 8 of the
obsidian vault build at neural-memory-vault).
Tests: 33/35 pass (2 failing pre-existing — C++ library not built locally).

Polls known git repos (neural-memory, pulse-hermes, LangGraph, hermes-agent)
and Obsidian vaults for changes since last run. Writes compact notes into
neural-memory via the `remember` CLI (H12).
v1 scope:
- git commits: last_sha..HEAD per tracked repo, no-merges
- vault edits: files modified within MAX_AGE_MIN (60 min default)
- state persisted to ~/.neural_memory/observer-state.json
- max-events cap prevents flooding on first run after downtime
- all events carry `observer:git:*` or `observer:vault:*` source labels
so compaction (H11) can target them if they turn out to be noise
v2 (deferred): Haiku filter + Opus extract stages for richer content.
Current v1 is zero-LLM — just passes commit subjects through.
Launchd plists at ~/Library/LaunchAgents/:
- com.ae.pulse-ingest.plist (daily 06:00 — A5)
- com.ae.neural-observer.plist (every 15 min — A6)
First live tick ingested 10 git commits from LangGraph + hermes-agent into
neural-memory. Corpus 58 → 68 memories.

Handles the actual LongMemEval JSON shape (haystack_sessions +
answer_session_ids + question + answer). Different from the synthetic
lme_eval.py which expected fact+paraphrased-query pairs.
For each record:
1. Flatten haystack_sessions into individual turns
2. Seed each turn into memory with label `lme:{qid}:{sess_id}:{turn_idx}`
3. recall(question, k=10)
4. Score: rank of first result whose session_id is in answer_session_ids
Reports R@1/R@5/R@10, MRR, p50/p95 latency.
--max flag caps records (default 20) to keep runs tractable.
Dataset: huggingface.co/datasets/xiaowu0162/longmemeval (note: no underscore
before "eval" in the repo name — the suffix is "eval" not "_eval").

…sistence H3 Conflict × Bi-Temporal When `remember()` supersede fires (cosine > 0.7 + content differs), call `store.set_edges_valid_to(conflict_id, now)` to invalidate the old edges temporally. They remain queryable via `get_connections(id, at_time=past)` but default recall ignores them. Also clears stale in-memory graph edges. H4 HNSW Persistence Save/load the hnswlib index to disk alongside the DB (`<db>.hnsw.bin`). Cold-start with valid cache: ~60ms vs minutes of bulk rebuild. Periodic save every 50 writes (`hnsw_save_every`). Staleness check via `get_current_count() == expected_count`. Rebuild on mismatch. `close()` flushes final save. H6 Dream × Bi-Temporal `DreamBackend.prune_weak()` now soft-deletes via `UPDATE ... SET valid_to=now` (when bi-temporal columns exist) instead of `DELETE FROM connections`. Falls back to hard-delete on pre-migration schemas. `DreamBackend.add_bridge()` stamps `ingestion_time = valid_from = now` on REM bridges, + edge_type='rem_bridge'. Also: `SQLiteStore.get_connections()` default behavior now filters expired edges (valid_to IS NULL or valid_to > now). Explicit `include_expired=True` kwarg returns everything for audit/replay. Full test suite: 45 passed / 1 failed / 1 skipped (pre-existing C++ absent). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds unit test for the H13 Phase 2 rotation heuristic — identity-grade strings preserve in default memory, episodic/factual strings route to neural-memory. Proxies the plugin's implementation to avoid importing hermes-agent's runtime (plugin __init__.py has top-level agent.memory_provider import). Covers the untested-heuristic item flagged in Review 04 of the vault. Full suite: 46 passed / 1 failed (pre-existing C++ absent) / 1 skipped. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…efore generic architectural match (caught by H8 test)
Three Auto-Dream-inspired lifecycle improvements ported into neural-memory.
All additive; defaults preserve prior behavior unless opt-out specified.
H18 Date Normalization
`NeuralMemory._normalize_dates(text, ref_time)` static method.
Converts relative dates ("yesterday", "last week", "N days ago",
"tomorrow", "this morning", etc.) to absolute ISO ("on 2026-04-25 ...").
Applied in `remember()` via new `normalize_dates=True` default kwarg.
Conservative: leaves ambiguous phrasings ("a couple days ago") untouched.
H19 Active Contradiction Replacement
Schema additive: `superseded_memories` table with original_id, content,
label, embedding, salience, superseded_by, superseded_at, superseded_reason.
`SQLiteStore.archive_superseded()` + `replace_memory()` methods.
`remember()` supersede branch rewired: archive old row to audit table,
replace `memories` row in-place with new content. No more `[SUPERSEDED]`
prefix bloating stored content. Defensive fallback to legacy prefix on
archive failure. H3 edge invalidation + in-memory graph cleanup preserved.
H20 Sub-Agent Dream Dispatch
`DreamEngine.dream_now(dispatch='inline'|'subprocess')`.
- `inline` (default): runs in-process, blocks until complete (preserved).
- `subprocess`: spawns Python subprocess that re-opens the DB + runs cycle.
Returns immediately with job_id. Status file at
`~/.neural_memory/dream-jobs/<job_id>.json`. SQLite WAL allows concurrent
read+write; recall in parent not blocked by dream.
`DreamEngine.dream_status(job_id)` polls completion.
Verified end-to-end:
- H18: 7 normalization test cases pass (yesterday/last week/N days ago/etc.)
- H19: in-place supersede preserves id; current row clean; audit row exists
with cosine reason; chain of N supersessions → N archive rows
- H20: subprocess returns in 10ms; dream completes async; status polls

python/schema_upgrade.py — extends the SCHEMA + _migrate_bitemporal pattern from memory_client.py:120-142 with 16 additive memories columns and 7 truly-new connections columns (3 of the spec's 10 already present from earlier _migrate_bitemporal work, skipped by idempotent guard). All ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN; no row rewrites, no destructive changes. New memories cols: kind, confidence, valid_from, valid_to, transaction_time, origin_system, source, metadata_json, memory_visibility, pin_state, decay_rate, reuse_count, last_reinforced_at, extracted_entities_json, locus_id, procedural_score. New connections cols: confidence, transaction_time, origin_system, salience, last_strengthened_at, evidence_count, metadata_json. transaction_time is added alongside the existing ingestion_time. Both coexist; transaction_time is the canonical name going forward (Phase 7 spec); legacy ingestion_time data preserved for backward compat. Backfill deferred to Commit 2 (retain-time typing). python/test_schema_upgrade.py — 5 stdlib-unittest contracts: adds_memory_columns, adds_connection_columns, is_idempotent, preserves_existing_records, legacy_columns_unchanged. Stdlib instead of pytest to avoid adding a dep (subtract-not-extend). .gitignore — backups/ excluded (operational rollback artifacts; not source). Pre-commit verification: - 5/5 unit tests pass on tmp DBs - Migration applied to live-shape backup DB (3.5GB / 231 memories / 10468 connections / WAL-mode): 8→24 memory cols, 10→17 connection cols; row counts unchanged; second-run no-op confirms idempotency on real data - Pre-write reviewer audit found no column-name collisions, no constraint conflicts, no test-fixture breakage Live ~/.neural_memory/memory.db NOT yet migrated — pending explicit authorization. Backup at backups/memory_pre_phase_b_20260501T171948Z.db (SHA-256 0210a4e6...c7d2b30) provides instant rollback.

…nt 2 P7C2)
Wires the 23 columns added in Commit 1 into the retain hot path. New memories
get auto-classified into one of 11 kinds (procedural/world/experience/
mental_model/etc.) with provenance fields populated.
New files:
- python/memory_types.py: frozenset constants for 11 MEMORY_KINDS + 16
EDGE_TYPES per handoff section 13.1.
- python/classify_memory_kind.py: heuristic classifier (no LLM, no model
load, deterministic, ~10us/call). Detects procedural/world/mental_model
patterns; defaults to experience. AE-domain patterns (NEC, code, when/if,
conclude/seems) tuned for electrical contracting + back-office language.
- python/test_memory_typing.py: 13 unittest contracts. 8 classifier tests
(procedural/world/mental_model/inference/empty/metadata-override/invalid-
override/membership) + 5 store-layer tests (backward-compat positional,
typed kwargs persist, explicit transaction_time preserved, empty metadata,
fresh-init schema upgrade).
Modified python/memory_client.py:
- Imports json, time, classify_memory_kind, SchemaUpgrade.
- SQLiteStore.__init__ now invokes SchemaUpgrade(db_path).upgrade() after
_migrate_bitemporal -- fresh installs auto-migrate to Phase 7 schema.
- SQLiteStore.store() extended with 8 keyword-only typed params: kind,
confidence, source, origin_system, valid_from, valid_to, transaction_time,
metadata. Builds dynamic INSERT -- only includes typed columns when caller
provides non-None values; schema defaults handle the rest. transaction_time
auto-stamps to time.time() when None.
- NeuralMemory.remember() extended with same typed kwargs + auto-calls
classify_memory_kind(text) when kind is not provided. Pass-through to
store.store().
Backward compatibility verification:
- All new params keyword-only; existing positional callers unchanged.
- 13/13 new tests pass.
- Existing test_suite.py: 41/47 pass; the 6 failures are pre-existing
environmental issues (libneural_memory.so not built locally, hermes plugin
not symlinked) -- none related to memory storage. memory:persistence,
memory:large_batch_100, unified:basic_workflow, perf:store_100, and the
entire phase-b: suite all pass.
Reviewer findings (agent scope: backward-compat audit):
- 4 categories clean (positional callers, import cycle, store callers,
metadata_json no collision).
- 2 punted to Commit 3:
* MSSQL backend (mssql_store.py) not extended; AE local install lacks
pyodbc so MSSQL writes don't fire. Extend in Commit 3 if MSSQL becomes
a deployment target.
* H19 supersession path (replace_memory) does not propagate typed kwargs;
superseded memories retain pre-supersession typing. Tracked for Commit 3.
Commit 1 wiring carry-over: SchemaUpgrade now invoked at every
SQLiteStore.__init__. New tmp DBs in tests get Phase 7 schema automatically.
Live ~/.neural_memory/memory.db (already migrated) will re-invoke .upgrade()
on next process start -- idempotent no-op.

Borrows entity-intelligence patterns from Hindsight/Graphiti/Memary without splitting memory stores: entities live as kind='entity' nodes in the same memories table, linked to source memories via mentions_entity edges. New files: - python/entity_extraction.py: extract_entities() heuristic (capitalized words minus stopwords; AE-domain acronyms NEC/GFCI/EMT pass through as entities). EntityRegistry class wraps SQLiteStore with case-insensitive get_or_create / lookup / frequency-tracking / mentions_entity edge linking. process_memory() runs the full extract->create->link pipeline. - python/test_entity_extraction.py: 15 unittest contracts. 6 extraction unit tests + 9 registry tests including case-insensitive dedup, frequency increment, typed-edge creation, and end-to-end process_memory. Modified python/memory_client.py: - NeuralMemory.__init__: instantiates self.entities = EntityRegistry(self.store). Skipped for MSSQL backend (registry needs _lock attr; MSSQL handled in C4+). - NeuralMemory.remember(): after store.store(), runs entities.process_memory() to extract/link entities. Wrapped in try/except so entity failure does NOT block memory storage. - 3 new public methods on NeuralMemory (delegate to self.entities): get_entity(name), get_entities_for_memory(memory_id), count_entities_named(name). - SQLiteStore.get_stats(): excludes kind='entity' rows from the user-facing 'memories' count + adds separate 'entities' count. Preserves historical semantic of "memories the user added" vs "derived entity nodes". Backward compatibility verification: - 15/15 new entity tests pass. - 13/13 P7C2 tests still pass. - 5/5 P7C1 tests still pass. - test_suite.py: 41 passed / 6 failed / 1 skipped — IDENTICAL baseline to pre-Commit-3. The fix to get_stats() prevents 'memory: large batch' from miscounting Entry-derived entity row. - Existing remember(text) and remember(text, label) callers unchanged. Reviewer findings carry-over: H19 supersession path still does not propagate typed/entity kwargs through replace_memory; tracked for P7C4+. MSSQL backend still not extended (entity processing skipped when use_mssql=True).

…t 2 P7C4) Wires the kind classifier from P7C2 into retrieval. recall(kind='procedural') now returns only procedural-kind memories. Procedural memories can declare their supporting experience base via evidence_ids, creating typed derived_from edges in the unified graph. Modified python/memory_client.py: - recall() gains kind: Optional[str] = None keyword-only kwarg. When set, the inner search over-fetches by 5x (max(k*5, 25)) to compensate for filter loss, then post-filters to matching kind, then slices to k. Existing recall(query, k, temporal_weight) behavior unchanged when kind is None. - _filter_by_kind() helper: single batched SELECT of ids matching the requested kind, in-memory set membership filter on results. One DB roundtrip regardless of result-set size. Sidesteps reviewer's concern about kind-not-in-result-dicts by querying the DB directly. - _recall_inner() is the renamed original recall() — preserves all 3 paths (C++ / HNSW / brute-force) untouched. recall() is a thin wrapper. - remember() gains evidence_ids: Optional[list[int]] = None keyword-only kwarg. When set, creates derived_from edges from the new memory to each evidence id via add_connection(edge_type='derived_from'). Invalid IDs are silently skipped via per-edge try/except — best-effort link. New file python/test_procedural_memory.py: 7 unittest contracts covering kind-filter return correctness, default behavior unchanged, single + multi evidence_ids edge creation, procedural in general recall, invalid evidence id resilience, empty/None evidence_ids no-op. Reviewer findings (agent backward-compat scope): - Filter point analysis: identified all 3 return paths; my wrapper approach applies filter once at the outer wrapper, not per-path. - No kwarg collision (recall has no existing kind param). - No existing recall(kind=...) callers across python/, benchmarks/, test_suite.py. - dream_engine.py:782 calls recall(content, k=10) without kind kwarg, so default None preserves global view. - add_connection(edge_type='derived_from') accepted; nullable temporal fields support non-bi-temporal edges. Backward compatibility verification: - 7/7 new procedural tests pass. - 15/15 P7C3 tests still pass. - 13/13 P7C2 tests still pass. - 5/5 P7C1 tests still pass. - test_suite.py: 41 passed / 6 failed / 1 skipped — IDENTICAL baseline.

…rint 2 P7C5) Borrows Hindsight's BM25 sparse channel and Graphiti's bi-temporal validity channel without forking off into separate stores: sparse search runs against a SQLite FTS5 virtual table mirroring memories.content, returning canonical memory IDs from the same memories table. Temporal search runs regular semantic recall then post-filters by valid_from/valid_to validity at as_of. python/schema_upgrade.py: - Adds _ensure_fts5() helper: creates memories_fts virtual table (internal- content FTS5 mode for trivial sync) and idempotently backfills from any existing memories whose rowid is missing from the FTS index. - upgrade() return dict gains 'fts_rows_backfilled' key. - Silent no-op if SQLite was compiled without FTS5 — sparse channel just returns empty results in that case. python/memory_client.py: - SQLiteStore.store(): after main INSERT, also INSERTs (rowid, content) into memories_fts. Wrapped in try/except sqlite3.OperationalError so missing- FTS5 builds don't break stores. - SQLiteStore.replace_memory(): NEW — refreshes FTS5 row via DELETE+INSERT on H19 supersession path. Reviewer flagged the stale-content gap; this fixes it within Commit 5 rather than punting to Commit 6. - NeuralMemory.sparse_search(query, k=5): SELECT rowid FROM memories_fts WHERE content MATCH ? ORDER BY rank LIMIT ? (FTS5 BM25). Returns memory dicts via SQLiteStore.get(). Empty list on FTS unavailable / no match / empty query. - NeuralMemory.temporal_search(query, as_of, k=5): runs _recall_inner with k*5 over-fetch, batched SELECT of (id, valid_from, valid_to), filters via _is_valid_at() helper. - NeuralMemory._is_valid_at(valid_from, valid_to, as_of): NULL-as-unbounded bi-temporal predicate (matches existing get_connections at_time semantics). python/test_sparse_temporal.py: 9 unittest contracts: - 5 sparse: finds_exact_jargon, respects_k_limit, returns_empty_for_no_match, works_on_fresh_install, handles_empty_query - 4 temporal: prefers_valid_at_as_of, returns_old_for_past_query, null_validity_is_always_valid, open_ended_validity_persists_into_future python/test_schema_upgrade.py: relaxed idempotency assertion to verify only column-add counts (other keys like fts_rows_backfilled may be present). Reviewer findings (FTS5 + temporal channel scope): - FTS5 module available on local Python ✓ - No pre-existing virtual tables in repo or live DB ✓ - replace_memory FTS sync gap CAUGHT and FIXED in this commit - valid_from/valid_to confirmed on memories table from P7C1 ✓ - Existing get_connections at_time semantics reused ✓ Backward compatibility verification: - 9/9 new sparse+temporal tests pass. - 7/7 P7C4 tests still pass. - 15/15 P7C3 tests still pass. - 13/13 P7C2 tests still pass. - 5/5 P7C1 tests still pass (after relaxing idempotency assertion). - test_suite.py: 41 passed / 6 failed / 1 skipped — IDENTICAL baseline.

2. BFS up to hops levels weighted by intent_edge_weights
3. accumulated activation = max-of-paths through node
4. damping 0.7 per hop
5. unknown edge_type baseline weight 0.3
Seeds remain in results (combined dense+graph signal ranks highest).

Per addendum lines 468-509. Extends the dream-engine surface with hygiene
operations on the unified graph: duplicate downweighting, evidence-attached
insight creation, and bi-temporal contradiction detection. Dream stays on
the graph; hygiene does NOT hard-delete (H6/H19 invariant preserved).
python/memory_client.py adds NeuralMemory methods:
- get_memory(memory_id): convenience wrapper exposing salience + kind +
validity + provenance fields beyond what store.get() returns.
- get_edges(memory_id): wrapper around store.get_connections that maps the
internal 'type' key to addendum-spec 'edge_type'. Includes expired edges
for completeness.
- has_edge(source, target, edge_type=None): direction-insensitive existence
check. Used by contradiction detection idempotency + by tests.
- run_memify_once(decay_factor=0.5): finds exact-content duplicates by
GROUP BY content; downweights salience of all but the highest-salience
copy. Skips kind='entity' rows (entity merge handled separately).
Returns {"duplicates_downweighted": N}. Idempotent — re-running on
already-downweighted rows produces a smaller delta each time but doesn't
delete anything.
- create_insight_from_cluster(memory_ids): creates a kind='dream_insight'
memory summarizing the cluster, with summarizes edges back to source
memories. Per handoff sec 9.3, insights MUST have evidence edges (no
free-floating insights). origin_system='dream_engine'.
- run_contradiction_detection_once(jaccard_threshold=0.4): O(n^2) scan
for pairs where one's valid_to ends before another's valid_from AND
content jaccard >= threshold. Adds contradicts edge; skips if already
present (idempotent). Stopword-filtered word jaccard for content overlap.
- _content_jaccard helper + _CONTRADICTION_STOPWORDS frozenset.

PHASE 7 COMPLETE — 10 of 10 commits shipped.
Per addendum lines 511-565. Final commit adds MemPalace-style locus
overlay, OpenAI-style governance controls, and Letta-style explanation
paths — all on the unified graph, no separate stores.
python/memory_client.py adds NeuralMemory methods:
- create_locus(wing, room): creates kind='locus' nodes for wing + room,
links room->wing via located_in. Auto-dedupes by label. Returns room id.
- _get_or_create_locus_node helper.
- assign_locus(memory_id, locus_id): adds located_in edge memory->locus.
Idempotent — re-assigning returns immediately if edge exists.
- memory_count(*, exclude_overlay=True): user-memory count. By default
excludes kind='entity' + kind='locus' (system overlay nodes are not
user-authored memories). Pass exclude_overlay=False for full count.
- forget(memory_id, *, mode='background'): governance op per handoff sec 11.
Modes:
'background' (default) - sets memory_visibility='backgrounded'; row
+ edges intact; deprioritizes from default recall.
'redact' - replaces content with '[REDACTED]'; visibility='hidden';
preserves edges (H19/H6 audit invariant).
'delete' - hard DELETE (rare; use 'background' first).
- explain_recall(query, k, *, kind, as_of): returns recall results with
per-result 'explanation' dict containing query, intent, channels,
final_score, and features (semantic, temporal_score, salience, combined).
Per addendum lines 541-547 + handoff sec 12.4.
- get_memory() expanded: now also returns memory_visibility, pin_state,
metadata_json.
python/test_locus_governance.py: 10 unittest contracts:
- 4 locus: create_and_assign, overlay_does_not_replace_graph,
assign_locus_is_idempotent, create_locus_dedupes_existing.
- 1 explain: explain_recall_returns_explanation_with_salience_feature.
- 5 governance: forget_background_sets_visibility, forget_does_not_break_edges,
forget_redact_replaces_content, forget_delete_removes_row,
forget_unknown_mode_raises.
Note: benchmark gate (addendum line 555-558) is left to the existing daily
smoke regression detector at ~/.neural_memory/bench-history/, which has
been firing since 2026-04-25 (file project_neural_memory_500_record_baseline.md).
The H23 plist + smoke runner are pre-Phase-7 infrastructure; Phase 7 does
not regress them.

Per execution addendum lines 580-1160. Builds the AE-specific bench corpus
that complements the existing LongMemEval 500-record synthetic baseline.
benchmarks/ae_domain_memory_bench/queries.py:
- 240 queries across 6 categories x 40 each:
electrical_contracting R@5 >= 0.78
spanish_whatsapp R@5 >= 0.70
materials_sku R@5 >= 0.75
lennar_lots R@5 >= 0.80
financial_calendar R@5 >= 0.72
customer_temporal R@5 >= 0.82
- Each query carries id, category, prompt, expected_channels (diagnostic),
minimum_rank, temporal_mode (current/past_window/cross_time), and
initially-empty ground_truth_ids list for post-labeling.
- CATEGORY_THRESHOLDS dict + get_queries() + category_counts() helpers.
benchmarks/ae_domain_memory_bench/run_ae_domain_bench.py:
- Two modes:
--mode diagnostic (default): runs each query, reports dense+sparse top-k
IDs, intent classification, edge weights, latency. NO ground truth
needed; output IS the input for labeling.
--mode scored: requires ground_truth_ids filled. Computes per-category
R@5/R@10/MRR + global R@5. Exits 2 if any category misses threshold,
0 if all pass. Suitable for CI gating.
- --db path override (default: ~/.neural_memory/memory.db)
- --category filter (run only one category)
- --k retrieval depth (default 10)
- --out JSON output path
benchmarks/ae_domain_memory_bench/README.md:
- Category table + thresholds.
- Run examples for diagnostic + scored modes.
- Labeling workflow: run diagnostic -> inspect IDs -> fill
ground_truth_ids in queries.py -> run scored.
- Exit code semantics for CI integration.
- Notes that this is ADDITIVE to the existing LME 500-record bench at
~/.neural_memory/bench-history/.
Smoke verification: ran electrical_contracting category against live DB
(239 memories at this point); 40 queries completed in ~8ms each. Dense
channel returned IDs from TF-IDF backend; sparse channel returned empty
(expected — hermes-saved content doesn't contain electrical-jargon yet).
Next step (deferred — needs labeling): walk through diagnostic output,
identify ground-truth memory IDs for each query against current 239-row
DB, fill queries.py ground_truth_ids, run scored mode.

Built tools/phase7_audit.py — read-only inspection of how a live neural-memory DB exercises Phase 7's typed/entity/scoring features. The audit revealed a real bug: SQLiteStore.store() unconditionally inserted into memories_fts, including kind='entity' rows. Entities are derived nodes (content like "Entity: Lennar"), not user memories; indexing them adds sparse-search noise without value. Live DB at ~/.neural_memory/memory.db had 6 stale entity rows in its FTS5 index (sync delta = 246 fts rows vs 240 expected non-entity memories). Fixes: 1. python/memory_client.py: SQLiteStore.store() now skips FTS5 insert when kind='entity'. One-line guard. 2. python/test_sparse_temporal.py: new test_entity_rows_not_indexed_in_fts5 contract. Now 10/10 sparse + temporal tests pass. 3. Live DB cleanup: ran one-shot DELETE FROM memories_fts WHERE rowid IN (SELECT id FROM memories WHERE kind='entity'). 6 stale rows removed. Audit re-run confirms sync delta = 0. tools/phase7_audit.py reports: - memory counts by kind (catches "everything classified unknown" drift) - top entities by mention frequency (current top: Ernesto freq=8) - edge type breakdown (similar 11404, mentions_entity 19, rem_bridge 1) - validity coverage (currently 0; infrastructure dormant pending callers) - Memify duplicate candidates (3 groups; 4 rows would be downweighted) - contradiction candidates by validity sequence - locus overlay coverage - FTS5 index sync delta (now 0) - salience distribution - Phase 7 schema column completeness (16/16 mem, 10/10 conn ✓) Backward compatibility verification: - 10/10 sparse + temporal tests pass (was 9; added 1) - All other Phase 7 test suites unchanged - test_suite.py: 41/47 IDENTICAL baseline Live DB stats post-cleanup: - 246 memories (232 unknown legacy + 8 experience + 6 entity) - 240 fts rows (perfect sync with non-entity memories) - 11424 connections Refs: - reference_neural_memory_execution_addendum.md (Phase 7 audit informally) - reference_neural_memory_unified_integration_handoff.md sec 5.1 + 5.6 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Ergonomic helpers wrapping NeuralMemory.remember() with the 6 most-
common AE event shapes. Each helper builds the right Phase 7 typed-
kwarg dict (kind, source, origin_system, valid_from, metadata, etc.)
so AE main-builder lane callers don't re-derive patterns.
python/ae_workflow_helpers.py:
- record_customer_interaction(customer, topic, body, channel)
-> kind='experience', source=channel, customer auto-extracted as entity
- record_job_event(job_id, event_type, body, source='dashboard')
-> kind='experience', job_id (e.g. 'Lennar lot 27') auto-extracted
- record_whatsapp_message(crew_member, text, thread_id, lang='es')
-> kind classified by classifier (Spanish 'Cuando...' -> procedural)
- record_sop(label, content, evidence_ids, confidence=0.95)
-> kind='procedural', derived_from edges to evidence experiences
- record_invoice_status_change(invoice_id, old_status, new_status, ts)
-> bi-temporal pair (old.valid_to=ts, new.valid_from=ts) + contradicts
edge. detect_conflicts=False to prevent H19 supersession from
merging the deliberately-near-duplicate facts.
- record_financial_event(event_type, due_date_iso, note, amount_cents)
-> kind='experience', source='financial_calendar', valid_from=ts
- initialize_ae_locus_overlay(): idempotent setup of 6 standard locus
rooms (Compliance, Customers, Finance, Active Jobs, Permits, Engineering).
python/classify_memory_kind.py: added 9 Spanish patterns to the
procedural classifier (Cuando/Si/Siempre/Nunca/Antes de/Despues de/
como hago/pasos para/recuerda/asegurate de). AE has Spanish-speaking
crew via WhatsApp; the classifier needed to handle their messages
correctly. World + mental_model patterns still English-only (those
domains less critical for crew comms).
python/test_ae_workflow_helpers.py: 9 unittest contracts covering each
helper. Verified bi-temporal correctness, Spanish classifier flips,
entity auto-extraction from job_id, derived_from edge creation, and
locus init idempotency.
Caught + fixed during build:
- H19 supersession was merging old/new invoice facts because their
text similarity was high. Fix: detect_conflicts=False on
record_invoice_status_change pair.
- Classifier missed Spanish 'Cuando...' procedural pattern. Fix:
added Spanish regex set.
Backward compatibility verification:
- 9/9 new helper tests pass.
- 13/13 P7C2 typing tests still pass (Spanish patterns are additive).
- All other Phase 7 test suites unchanged.
- test_suite.py: 41/47 IDENTICAL baseline.
This commit is ergonomics-only: adds helpers + classifier patterns.
No new memory schema, no retrieval changes, no shared-state ops.
AE main-builder lane (6eec244c) decides where to call these.

Reviewer itsXactlY#3 caught a recurring bug: my fix in bcd72db was a forward- guard only. Hermes (running at PID 55181 since 12:47, was 19835 at session start) hadn't reloaded the updated memory_client.py module, so its in-memory copy still inserted entity rows into FTS5. Result: 8 stale entity rows in the FTS index by review-time (was 6 at original audit; +2 from continued hermes saves). The forward-guard is right but insufficient when long-running processes hold stale code. This commit adds a self-healing defensive cleanup: SchemaUpgrade._ensure_fts5() now DELETEs any kind='entity' rows from memories_fts on every invocation. Combined with the SQLiteStore.__init__ hook from P7C2, this means every fresh NeuralMemory() instance cleans the index. Backfill is also now kind-aware (skips entities). python/schema_upgrade.py: _ensure_fts5() extended with defensive DELETE + kind-filtered backfill. ~10 LOC added. Verified on live DB: ran schema_upgrade.py against ~/.neural_memory/ memory.db; sync delta dropped 8 → 0. Tests still pass (5/5 schema + 10/10 sparse_temporal). Trade-off: defensive DELETE on every init is O(entity_count) extra work — negligible at AE scale (few entities ever). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…sertion Reviewer itsXactlY#2 caught two regression risks in the post-Phase-7 audit: 1. The c2c2321 defensive FTS cleanup (kind='entity' rows must be DELETEd from memories_fts on every SchemaUpgrade.upgrade() invocation) had ZERO test coverage. Without a test, future refactors could silently regress the self-healing behavior. 2. test_explicit_name_overrides_env_var was trivially-true: it set the env var to 'hash', requested name='default', and only asserted `assertIsNotNone(backend)` — passes regardless of whether the override was honored. Fixes: python/test_schema_upgrade.py: +2 contracts (now 7 total): - test_ensure_fts5_cleans_entity_rows_defensively: simulates stale-code pollution path (insert entity row + manually pollute FTS5), runs SchemaUpgrade.upgrade(), asserts cleanup fires. - test_ensure_fts5_backfill_skips_entity_rows: backfill on a DB containing entity rows must NOT add them to FTS5 (kind-aware backfill clause). python/test_embedding_registry.py: tightened test_explicit_name_overrides_env_var: - now asserts env-baseline first (HashBackend with NEURAL_MEMORY_EMBED_BACKEND=hash), then asserts explicit name='default' returns NOT-HashBackend (proving override was honored). Verification: - 7/7 schema_upgrade tests pass (was 5) - 7/7 embedding_registry tests pass (assertion now actually means something) - All 12 P7 test files green; 119 total contracts (was 117). - test_suite.py: 41/47 baseline preserved.

Synth P1 #7 closeout PARTIAL (sonnet packet S7, opus reviewed/tested/
integrated; mtime/provenance selection follow-up dispatched as S7b):
Stale "0.82" prose removed:
- tools/nm_recall_mcp.py:13 (module docstring) and :55 (HNSW comment)
no longer advertise the stale R@5=0.82 from before the Phase 7.5
migration. Synth-current authority is 0.5758 (latest artifact) /
0.6061 (preserved peak) — a static number in prose was misleading.
Helper added:
- _bench_authority(bench_dir) -> (r_at_5_str, artifact_name) reads the
most recent ae-domain-*.json under ~/.neural_memory/bench-history/
and returns the live R@5 string. Falls back to ("unknown", "unknown")
on no-artifact / read-fail / malformed JSON / missing key.
KNOWN PARTIAL (Sonnet flagged + dispatched as S7b follow-up):
Helper currently uses sorted(glob)[-1] which is lexicographic — picks
ae-domain-bge-small-clean-073802.json (a copy-ablation with R@5=0.6061)
over ae-domain-2026-05-02-124730.json (production, R@5=0.5758) because
letters > digits in ASCII. S7b will replace lexical sort with mtime +
provenance + production-DB filter so copy-ablation artifacts can't be
authoritative.

…=0.82 audit
Synth #7 + #13 closeout (sonnet packet S7b, opus reviewed/tested/integrated):
#7 Bench artifact selection (lex-sort -> mtime + provenance filter):
- tools/nm_recall_mcp.py::_bench_authority rewritten. Was sorted(glob)[-1]
(lexicographic) which picked ae-domain-bge-small-clean-073802.json
(R@5=0.6061 copy-ablation) over ae-domain-2026-05-02-124730.json (R@5=
0.5758 production) because letters > digits in ASCII.
- New _is_eligible_artifact(path) helper: prefers artifacts whose
provenance.db_path ends with /.neural_memory/memory.db (production
canonical); falls through to strict timestamp regex
ae-domain-\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}-\d{6}\.json for legacy/pre-bfd3b70
artifacts that have no provenance block yet.
- Selection then picks max-mtime among eligibles.
- Existing fallback to ("unknown", "unknown") preserved.
#13 Stale R@5=0.82 prose final audit:
- python/ae_workflow_helpers.py:270 — docstring updated to neutral
"see latest bench-history artifact + canonical reader" pointer.
- tools/neural-memory-snapshot-daily.sh:5 — neutral phrasing.
- tools/launchd/com.ae.neural-memory-snapshot.plist:6 — neutral phrasing.
- Production-source grep for "0\.82" outside tests now returns ZERO
hits. Load-bearing per-category threshold values in
benchmarks/queries.py + README.md (customer_temporal target = 0.82)
intentionally untouched — those are config values, not stale prose.
Tests: 10/10 pass in test_nm_recall_mcp_authority.py (was 5/5, +5 new):
- test_authority_selects_artifact_by_mtime_not_lex_sort
- test_authority_excludes_copy_ablation_artifact
- test_authority_falls_through_when_only_pre_provenance_artifacts
- generalized lockdown extended to scan all 5 modified prod files
- smoke import clean
Adjacent regression: 71/71 pass across 6 test files.
Behavior verified post-patch: previously selected
ae-domain-bge-small-clean-073802.json (R@5 0.6061, copy-ablation); now
selects ae-domain-2026-05-02-124730.json (R@5 0.5758, production
substrate). Selection currently flows through the legacy timestamp
fallback because no live artifact yet has a provenance block (all
predate bfd3b70); the next F9 rerun will produce the first artifact
that hits the production-canonical branch.
No substrate write. No F9 bench. No commit of unrelated work.

Synth P0-3 closeout via Option E (sonnet packet S-OptE, opus reviewed/
tested/integrated):
AE-builder lane discovered Option E: the existing sent_estimate_pdf_miner.py
in AE-LangGraph already writes typed sidecar JSONs at
data/sent-estimates-pdfs/*.json with shape:
{msg_id, thread_id, subject, from, to, date, filename, size_bytes,
text, extraction, dollar_total_guess, downloaded_at}
NM tails them. ZERO AE patch. ZERO cross-lane permission. 47 historical
sidecars picked up free on first --backfill. Tito approved no privacy
gating: "idc about privacy. i'm only user dude."
New files (~650 lines total):
- tools/ingest_sent_pdf_sidecars.py (365 lines): dry-run default,
--live opt-in (ingests via record_evidence_artifact with replay-safe
semantics already shipped at 527aeec), --sidecar-dir override,
--watermark for incremental runs, --backfill for one-shot full,
per-row try/except + structured per-row report output.
- python/test_ingest_sent_pdf_sidecars.py (284 lines): 10 contracts
covering dry-run/live/idempotent/watermark/backfill/malformed/
metadata-shape/ISO-parsing/epoch-passthrough/empty-dir.
NM mapping (per AE-builder spec):
evidence_type = "sent_pdf" (canonical EVIDENCE_TYPES entry; packet
spec said "sent_estimate_pdf" but that
isn't in the registry — would crash
_validate_evidence_type)
source_system = "sent_estimate_pdf_miner"
source_record_id = sidecar.msg_id
content = sidecar.text
valid_from = parsed from sidecar.downloaded_at (defensive ISO/epoch)
privacy_class = "financial" (mirrors record_estimate_evidence default)
metadata = {thread_id, subject, from, to, date, filename,
dollar_total_guess, capability_id: "ITEM-SENT-PDF"}
KNOWN DESIGN FLAG (Sonnet surfaced; ship-as-is for first cycle):
47 sidecars → 30 distinct msg_ids. Multi-attachment Gmail threads
(e.g. Christa's 7-PDF LOI bundle) share one msg_id. Under upsert
semantics from 527aeec, those 17 extra sidecars dedupe to
inserted=False — one memory_id per thread.
If per-PDF identity is required (each PDF as distinct evidence row),
change source_record_id to f"{msg_id}:{filename}" in a follow-up
packet. Tests would need to flip with it. Default thread-level
identity ships now since:
- it's what's tested + dry-run validated
- the use case (semantic recall) is satisfied either way for v0
- per-PDF adjustment is a one-helper change if Tito wants it later
Verification:
- python3 -m unittest python/test_ingest_sent_pdf_sidecars.py -v
→ 10/10 OK
- --help renders cleanly
- --backfill dry-run smoke against 47 real sidecars: 47/47 validate,
0 errors, JSONL written to ~/.neural_memory/ingest-dryruns/
- Spot-check first row: ISO timestamp parsed correctly to epoch
(2026-05-02T05:14:42.784156+00:00 → 1777698882.784156)

Self-portrait feature handoff from AE-builder absorbed (sonnet packet
S-PORTRAIT-1, opus reviewed/tested/integrated). Tito hard rules
(non-negotiable) baked into design:
1. Agents pick their own aesthetic — no prompts written FOR them
2. Reasoning mandatory each cycle alongside visual
3. References inspiration only, not templates
4. Always-on, no manual triggers
This packet ships STEP 1 of the cycle: agent-agnostic read-only
substrate query helpers. Cycle dispatcher (S-PORTRAIT-2, separate)
calls these per-agent.
New file: python/self_portrait_substrate.py (406 lines)
- read_self_relevant_memories(mem, agent_name, limit=20)
- read_recent_reflections(mem, agent_name, limit=10)
- read_top_entities(mem, agent_name, limit=10)
- read_recent_dream_insights(mem, limit=5)
- read_peer_portraits(mem, exclude_agent, limit=3)
- compose_substrate_packet(mem, agent_name) — orchestrator entrypoint
returning {agent, ts, self_memories, self_reflections, top_entities,
dream_insights, peer_portraits}
Critical design decision (Sonnet flagged + Opus accepts):
metadata.author / metadata.actor / metadata.agent fields DO NOT
EXIST in current schema. Live attribution is fragmented across
origin_system column, source column, and metadata_json.from on
bridge_mailbox rows. Helper builds defensive multi-field SQL
predicate that picks up the canonical attribution AS SOON AS
S-PORTRAIT-2 starts writing metadata.author=<agent_name> on
kind='self_portrait' inserts. Zero-code-change forward-compatibility.
Also: kind='insight' was the spec literal; live schema uses
'dream_insight'. Helper queries kind IN ('dream_insight','insight')
for resilience.
Also: agent-filter moved into SQL WHERE (not post-fetch) after
smoke caught the failure — top-N-by-recency window can be 100%
Hermes-dominated, leaving claude-code / codex with self=0 results
if filtering happens after LIMIT.
Tests added (14/14 pass) — python/test_self_portrait_substrate.py:
- 4× read_self_relevant_memories (agent filter applied; SQL predicate
construction; empty substrate; no metadata.author tolerance)
- 2× read_recent_reflections (kind='self_portrait' missing tolerance;
legacy kind='reflection' coverage)
- 2× read_top_entities (connections graph traversal; weight ordering)
- 2× read_recent_dream_insights (kind alias; agent-agnostic)
- 2× read_peer_portraits (exclude_agent never appears; empty peers ok)
- compose_substrate_packet (all 6 keys present)
- end-to-end empty-substrate (no helper crashes on empty DB)
Adjacent regression: 81/81 across 8 test files.

…-gen) Sonnet packet S-PORTRAIT-2, opus reviewed/tested/integrated. Builds on S-PORTRAIT-1 substrate read (committed at 2cb3de9). Tito hard rules baked in: 1. Agents pick their own aesthetic — orchestrator NEVER pre-fills, templates, or constrains the agent's diffusion prompt. The agent passes prompt_text + reasoning_text; we validate bounds (non-empty, ≤4000) and pass through verbatim. 2. Reasoning mandatory each cycle (stored as the searchable content). 3. References inspiration only. 4. Always-on, no manual triggers. New file: tools/self_portrait_cycle.py (810 lines) Two invocation modes: --mode scaffold (default): runs STEP 2 (substrate read via compose_substrate_packet from S-PORTRAIT-1), writes input.json to ~/.neural_memory/portraits/<agent>/cycle-<ts>/. No image-gen, no store. Agent picks up input.json on its next turn. --mode complete: requires --reasoning-text + --prompt-text (both agent-authored). Runs STEPS 4-7: validate bounds, image-gen, diff-from-prior, store. STEP 5 image-gen: - Direct stdlib urllib.request → https://api.openai.com/v1/images/generations - Defaults: gpt-image-1 model, 1536x1024 size (real OpenAI model + supported size; handoff doc named gpt-image-2 which is a Hermes-side alias — this orchestrator calls OpenAI directly per NM topology) - Agents override via --image-model / --image-size (Tito rule itsXactlY#1) - OPENAI_API_KEY missing → image_path=None, cycle continues - 4xx/5xx/timeout → image_path=None, cycle continues (always-on req) - Saves to ~/.neural_memory/portraits/<agent>/<cycle_ts>.png - Supports url + b64_json response shapes STEP 6 diff-from-prior: - Deterministic token-set Jaccard with 4 bands (stable / mostly-stable / notable-shift / major-shift). Stdlib only. - Sonnet-subagent diff explicitly deferred to P1. STEP 7 store: - Uses NeuralMemory.remember() (verified at memory_client.py:1226) - kind='self_portrait', origin_system=agent_name (per S-PORTRAIT-1 attribution recommendation), source='self_portrait_cycle', salience=0.8, detect_conflicts=False - metadata: {author, agent_name, cycle_ts, image_path, image_url, prompt_text, model_used, anchor_seed, diff_from_prior, substrate_packet_path} Tests added (13/13 pass) — python/test_self_portrait_cycle.py: - scaffold mode writes input packet only - complete mode requires both reasoning and prompt - image-gen handles missing API key gracefully - image-gen handles API failure gracefully - store writes correct kind + origin_system + metadata.author - diff returns first-portrait message when no prior - orchestrator calls compose_substrate_packet at STEP 2 - dry-run skips store - URL-error path covered - b64_json success path covered - prompt validation bounds enforced - identical-reasoning diff band - low-overlap diff band Smoke: --help clean. --mode scaffold against /tmp empty substrate produces valid input.json with all 6 keys.

Sonnet packet S-PORTRAIT-PERF, opus reviewed/tested/integrated. Cron load test (commit 920ac4d) revealed the scaffold-mode path stuck for 150+ seconds at 70% CPU + 1.9GB RAM, never producing input.json. Bootout + kill needed. ROOT CAUSE: tools/self_portrait_cycle.py::_open_memory() instantiated full NeuralMemory(db_path=...) which loads embedder + HNSW + reranker + in-memory graph (~30-60s cold load). But compose_substrate_packet only uses raw mem.store.conn for SELECT-only SQL. Scaffold mode never needs the heavy stack. FIX: - python/self_portrait_substrate.py: helpers now accept either (a) NeuralMemory instance (via .store.conn — backward compat), (b) sqlite3.Connection directly, or (c) string/Path to memory.db (opens read-only sqlite3 URI). New _get_conn() dispatcher routes by type. Backward compat for MagicMock-mem path preserved (NM check first since MagicMock has implicit .cursor()). - tools/self_portrait_cycle.py: _open_substrate_lightweight() opens sqlite3 read-only directly (no NM init). main() routes scaffold mode through it; complete mode still uses _open_memory (needs NM for STEP 7 store with auto-embed). - Scaffold path now avoids importing NeuralMemory entirely. Tests: 34/34 pass (was 27, +7 new): - 6 in CompositionInputDispatchTests (sqlite3 conn / db_path string / pathlib.Path / mem-object backward compat / dispatch precedence / unsupported-input rejection) - 1 ScaffoldPerfTests subprocess assertion (timeout=10s against real substrate; SKIP if substrate absent for CI) LIVE SMOKE (real substrate ~/.neural_memory/memory.db, 15K+ memories): time python3 tools/self_portrait_cycle.py --agent claude-code --mode scaffold → 0.72s wall-clock (was 150s+ stuck before fix) → input.json written at ~/.neural_memory/portraits/claude-code/cycle-<ts>/ → 58.7 KB, 7 keys, 20 self_memories + 10 top_entities + 3 dream_insights → memory_client/embed_provider/sentence_transformers NOT in sys.modules WAL gotcha noted: read-only sqlite3 conn can't create -shm/-wal files; transient SQLITE_BUSY caught by _safe_execute defensive try/except.

…cal --db (S1)
tools/ae_domain_bench_run.sh previously selected --prev-results via raw
ls -t and omitted explicit canonical --db. Result: stale-HEAD or
copy/ablation artifacts could become the comparison baseline, and the
run could implicitly target a non-canonical DB.
S1 packet (NM-builder lane, dispatched by Opus):
- Added _select_eligible_prev python-heredoc selector with 14 rejection
criteria (stale HEAD, no provenance, db_path != canonical, missing
per_query, null memory_count/active_connection_count, copy/ablation
filename markers, etc.).
- Hard-coded CANONICAL_DB="${HOME}/.neural_memory/memory.db" and added
--db "$CANONICAL_DB" to the python invocation.
- Exposed --select-eligible-prev <dir> [--current-head <sha>] dry-run
mode for direct testability.
- New python/test_ae_domain_bench_run_authority.py: 20 tests covering
positive selection + 11 rejection criteria + 2 fallback paths +
ordering + 4 shell-invocation contract tests.
Real bench-history scan (10 priors): all 10 rejected (most-recent
ae-domain-2026-05-03-032052.json rejected on db_path=(default), 7 on

…ion (S2 + Opus race fix)
Canonical DB had PRAGMA user_version=0 and no evidence-identity authority.
record_evidence_artifact previously deduped via JSON-scan of metadata —
not a real DB-level guard.
S2 packet (NM-builder lane, dispatched by Opus):
- python/schema_upgrade.py: additive evidence_ledger table
(evidence_id PK, memory_id, evidence_type, source_system,
source_record_id, status, inserted_at, updated_at, metadata_hash) with
UNIQUE indexes on (source_system, source_record_id) and
(evidence_type, source_record_id). PRAGMA user_version 0 → 1.
Migration is idempotent (CREATE IF NOT EXISTS, no DROP/ALTER).
- python/ae_workflow_helpers.py:
* _ledger_reserve uses INSERT OR IGNORE for atomic claim.
* Winner: mem.remember() then _ledger_set_memory_id patches in.
* Loser: re-reads ledger; if memory_id NULL still, falls back to
legacy json_extract path (or fresh remember as last resort).
* Helper return shape {memory_id, evidence_id, inserted} preserved
exactly across all 4 evidence helpers.
* Pre-upgrade DBs and non-SQLite stores transparently fall back to
legacy json_extract scan.
Opus race-fix follow-up (commit-time): S2's loser path returned None
when memory_id was still NULL (winner mid-flight), which made all 8
threads in the race test fall through to mem.remember() — exposing a
non-thread-safe iteration in HNSW/connection_graph internals (RuntimeError:
dictionary changed size during iteration). Wrapping the full pipeline
in store._lock would deadlock since mem.remember re-acquires the same
non-reentrant Lock internally. Fix: loser polls _ledger_lookup with
40 × 25ms (1s budget), releasing store._lock between polls so the winner
can complete; falls through to a fresh remember only if the budget
exhausts. Race test now passes consistently.
Tests: 12 schema + 26 evidence (incl. 8-thread race test) +
26 sent-pdf consumer = 64/64 pass.

* Watermark schema bumped v1 → v2: processed_keys is set of

* Added --db-path flag (defaults to canonical).
* Pre-flight refusal for --live: REFUSE (exit 5) unless target DB has
evidence_ledger table OR user_version >= 1 (mirrors S2's target).
Applies to canonical default AND --db-path copies. Dry-run mode

…+ set -u (S1 followup)
S1 packet's eligibility filter correctly initializes PREV_ARG=() when no
eligible prior exists, but the subsequent "${PREV_ARG[@]}" expansion is
fatal under macOS bash 3.2 + set -u (treats empty-array expansion as
"unbound variable"). Caught when Opus actually ran F9 against canonical
(S1's brief told it not to run the bench, so this surfaced post-merge).
Fix: use the bash-3.2-safe ${PREV_ARG[@]+"${PREV_ARG[@]}"} idiom.

…ranch (S7-FOLLOWUP fix)
Prior runtime-proof attempts could only confirm hybrid_recall was OFF
(via logger.warning fallback messages) or guess from inference. When the
env var is correctly plumbed and hybrid_recall succeeds, there was zero
log evidence — making "is hybrid recall actually firing?" unanswerable
from log inspection alone.
Add logger.info before each hybrid_recall call:
- L569 area: queue_prefetch path (rerank=False, background prefetch)
- L1029 area: _handle_recall path (rerank=True, explicit recall)
Pattern: "hybrid_recall enabled: <path> (k=<limit>)"
Future runtime proofs can now grep:
grep 'hybrid_recall enabled' ~/.hermes/logs/gateway.log
Pairs with the gateway plist relocation (env var moved from
com.ae.hermes.plist to ai.hermes.gateway.plist where the actual recall
consumer lives — see addendum 2026-05-03T13:00Z + S7-FOLLOWUP-result.md).

Synth contract (LIVE_FEED 2026-05-03T10:41:47Z): "S6 - Label expansion: after valid row-rich F9, add 12-20 high-value labels for Spanish/materials/Lennar/customer-temporal with duplicate-GT integrity tests." S6 dispatched after the first eligible current-head/current-DB scored authority artifact landed (ae-domain-2026-05-03-062619.json, R@5=0.5263 on 38 labeled queries, HEAD 38e5cd8). Coverage targets (Tito reframing honored — no Spanish-WA labels): - customer-temporal: +3 (TMP-011, TMP-026, TMP-033) — needed >=2 - materials SKU ambiguity: +5 (MAT-001/003/005/011/014) — needed >=3 - Lennar permit/lot R6-10: +5 lot-anchored (LOT-008/014/016/025/033) — needed >=3 - stubs 274/286/277/288: covered by 11 existing — no new needed - permits 13687/13688/13692/13693: covered by 6 existing — no new needed - Spanish-WA: 0 (deferred until real Hermes WA batch arrives) Total scored: 38 → 57 (+19). 28 distinct new GT memory_ids verified present in canonical at HEAD c4f69e2 with 1536-dim embedding + non-empty content. Integrity test added: test_duplicate_ground_truth_set_pair_count_under_cap enforces a documented cap of 18 GT-set collisions (existing corpus had 17; 3 NEW intentional collisions added for cross-lens reuse). Strict no-duplicates would fail at HEAD c4f69e2; cap design catches FUTURE lazy-labeling regressions. Tests: 4/4 pass (label integrity) + 20/20 pass (S1 shell auth). 24/24 combined sweep green. Expected R@5 movement (per LIVE_FEED caveat "regression-gate fires on label-expansion drift, not quality"): small drop possible (0.50-0.55 range vs prior 0.5263) due to label-expansion drift on entity-dense HD-SKU and permit-doc anchors. Investigate only if global drops below 0.40 or any category collapses >0.20 from F9 baseline. Closes LIVE_FEED Active P1 itsXactlY#2 (BENCHMARK_GAP — labels too sparse for model promotion).

…4 (S6a + S1e) S6a: Validated TMP-011 (GT=[5531]), TMP-026 (GT=[264,280]), TMP-033 (GT=[268,282]) against canonical DB. All five GT ids resolved to WRONG_CONTENT — 5531 is an Amperage Q1 invoice table (not a contact); 264/280/268/282 are current-tense "Sarah from Lennar" assertions with no predecessor or change-event semantics. No better GT ids exist in corpus. Moved entries to category="quarantined_temporal" with empty ground_truth_ids; bench runner skips empty-GT entries via the existing `if not q["ground_truth_ids"]: continue` guard, so customer_temporal R@5 no longer gets dragged to 0 by mislabels. S1e: Lowered _SCORED_QUERY_FLOOR from 57 to 54 with full quarantine rationale inline. Floor decrement is deliberate, audited removal of bad labels — not silent label drift. Test message preserved as a guardrail for future drops. Tests: bench label integrity 4/4, bench subsets/gate 18/18, helper evidence ingest 29/29.
…S1c + S1d) S1c: run_ae_domain_bench now emits a `subsets` block with up to four slices — preserved_33, subset_38, new_label_only, full_57 — each carrying query_md5, git_head, db_path, substrate_counts, global_r@5, per_category_r@5, per_query rows, and dropped_ids. PRESERVED_33_QUERY_IDS derived from commit 03f4785; SUBSET_38_QUERY_IDS derived from artifact ae-domain-2026-05-03-062619.json. Sets are strictly nested 33 ⊂ 38 ⊂ 57 at HEAD. S1d: _category_regression_gate rewritten to compute comparable_ids = cur_per_query ∩ prev_per_query, report per-category R@5 deltas only on the intersect, surface label_expansion_categories separately (never fires regression), and return regression_detected on every path. Adds --enforce-regression flag and AE_BENCH_ENFORCE_REGRESSION=1 env (rc=3 on gate fire). Existing rc=2 threshold-fail behavior preserved. tools/ae_domain_bench_run.sh: ENFORCE_REGRESSION_ARG=() forwarded with bash 3.2 + set -u safe expansion (preserves df9373b fix pattern). Tests: 18 new in test_bench_subsets_gate.py (anchor counts, dedup, nesting, subset block keys, dropped_ids, provenance, gate disabled w/o prev, gate fires on intersect drop, label expansion does not fire). 18/18 green.
…ail-closed (S4b)
Contract 1 — source_record_id required. record_evidence_artifact now accepts
allow_unkeyed_nonprod: bool = False (keyword-only). When source_record_id is
None and allow_unkeyed_nonprod is False, raises ValueError naming both params.
Caller audit confirmed all three internal helpers (record_wa_crew_event,
record_estimate_evidence, record_material_price_evidence) already pass real
source_record_ids — no caller changes required. Production callers get
replay-authority by default; ad-hoc callers must explicitly opt in.
Contract 2 — ledger loser timeout fails closed. The "fall through to a fresh
mem.remember()" path after the 40-poll loop is replaced with an explicit
return: {memory_id: None, evidence_id, inserted: False, status: "pending_winner"}.
A second mem.remember() call after timeout would create a duplicate row under
the same (evidence_type, source_system, source_record_id) triple, violating
the unique-key invariant. Callers should retry; check status == "pending_winner"
before using memory_id.
Tests: 3 new (rejects None by default; allows None with opt-in; loser-timeout
returns pending_winner without invoking mem.remember and leaves exactly one
ledger row). 4 pre-existing tests updated to pass an explicit source_record_id
where they previously relied on None to reach a downstream validator. 29/29 green.
Note: S2b ledger-index-review verdict (analysis-only): no migration required;
all current producers globally namespace source_record_id within their
(source_system, evidence_type). Spec written to ~/.neural_memory/sonnet-packets/
2026-05-03/S2b-result.md as constraint for future producers.
…(S5b) Synth contract (LIVE_FEED 2026-05-03T13:43:23Z): "S5b - WA contract parity: align auth_proof to object/null across dry-run, live helper, metadata, and fixtures while preserving evidence_id parity." Synth Active P1 #9: "WA dry-run requires auth_proof object/null while record_wa_crew_event still takes/stores optional string; align before accepting Hermes batches." S5 (commit 38e5cd8) made the validator treat auth_proof as Optional[dict] per AEEvidenceIngest v0 contract. The helper still accepted Optional[str]. S5b closes the parity gap: - record_wa_crew_event: auth_proof type Optional[str] → Optional[dict]. - Explicit ValueError on str input with message about structured shape. - Persistence guard: `if auth_proof:` → `if auth_proof is not None:` so empty {} is preserved as caller intent (not silently dropped). - Docstring updated with new contract block. Tests: 5 new tests in python/test_ae_evidence_ingest.py: - test_record_wa_crew_event_accepts_dict_auth_proof - test_record_wa_crew_event_accepts_none_auth_proof - test_record_wa_crew_event_rejects_str_auth_proof - test_record_wa_crew_event_persists_auth_proof_dict_in_metadata - test_dryrun_validator_and_helper_agree_on_dict_auth_proof (parity canary) 1 existing test updated (test_wa_crew_event_persists_full_contract_schema) from string to dict auth_proof. evidence_id parity proven: validator + dryrun typed_record + live helper + manual sha256 formula all produce 3a4e03c2e1d42547 for the dict-auth_proof input row. auth_proof is metadata-only — never enters the deterministic key — so by construction this contract change cannot perturb evidence_id. Validator (tools/ingest_wa_dryrun.py) NOT touched: validator was already correct; this packet brings the helper into parity with it. External callers: none outside the test file. Hermes WA producer is still in spec phase (HANDOFF-hermes-wa-producer-spec.md), so no field caller passes string auth_proof. No migration needed. Tests: 94/94 pass (89 baseline + 5 new) including S2 lockdown test_dryrun_evidence_id_matches_live_ingest. Closes LIVE_FEED Active P1 #9 (CONSUMER_CONTRACT_GAP — WA auth_proof parity).

Synth contract (LIVE_FEED 2026-05-03T13:43:23Z): "S2b - ledger index review:
prove all producers globally namespace source_record_id, OR migrate unique
policy to include source_system."
Synth Active P1 #11: "ledger uniqueness/comment policy now says evidence id
includes source_system, but the unique type-record index is still
(evidence_type, source_record_id); prove global namespacing or migrate
before multi-source producers."
S2b chose Approach B (migrate). Driving finding: evidence_type="sent_pdf"
is already produced by TWO source_systems with overlapping key shapes —
record_estimate_evidence (source_system=ae_dashboard, key={estimate_id}:
{event_type}) AND tools/ingest_sent_pdf_sidecars (source_system=
sent_estimate_pdf_miner, key={msg_id}:{filename}). The v1 narrower index
would block legitimate cross-source coexistence. Approach A (proving global
uniqueness) would freeze key-format contracts forever as public API — a
bigger cost than fixing the index.
Migration (idempotent + additive-friendly):
- user_version 1 → 2 (short-circuit on already-v2)
- DROP INDEX IF EXISTS idx_evidence_ledger_type_record (old narrow)
- CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_evidence_ledger_type_source_record
ON evidence_ledger(evidence_type, source_system, source_record_id)
- evidence_ledger row count is 0 in canonical at migration time; index
swap loses no data even if it weren't.
- Strict-superset on the index (preserves all pre-existing
row-uniqueness invariants).
Tests:
- python/test_schema_upgrade.py: 16/16 pass (2 updated for v2 contract,
4 new v1→v2 migration tests including idempotency proof against
hand-built v1 fixture via _create_v1_ledger).
- python/test_evidence_ledger_namespace.py (NEW): 7/7 pass (per-helper
source_record_id shape inventory + dual-source acceptance test
proving sent_pdf from ae_dashboard AND sent_estimate_pdf_miner can
coexist under v2 index).
Aggregate sweep: 185/185 + 11 subtests across S5b + S2b + collateral.
OPEN TITO ACK: applying SchemaUpgrade(canonical).upgrade() will trigger
v1→v2 migration on canonical DB. Migration is the safest possible
window — evidence_ledger rows = 0 — but it's a substrate mutation
requiring explicit Tito ACK per hard rules.

S4c adds 4 OPTIONAL keyword-only params: - pdf_path (or pdf_sha256 fallback) — disambiguates multi-attachment - msg_id — Gmail message id, disambiguates resends - recipient — metadata-only (does NOT enter identity to avoid over- fragmenting batch sends) - attachment_ordinal — 1-indexed, disambiguates same-sha attachments Compose order locked: pdf → msg → sent → att.

…49 (T13) S6-DIAG (wave 3 read-only diagnosis) identified 5 label_error candidates where the assigned ground_truth_ids don't actually answer the query semantically. Sonnet T13 independently re-verified each via canonical sqlite3 read-only — zero mis-classifications confirmed. Quarantined queries (mirror b82214c S6a/S1e pattern): - ELC-040: GT [274,286] = 33-char "Lennar lot 27 needs panel labels."; no permit/inspection/rework overlap with the query semantics. - MAT-004: GT [5961] = single-item grounding-bushings doctrine, not a BOM. - FIN-002: GT [2628,2659] = OVER-BUY doctrine framing over-buy as "deliberate, NOT a bug" — semantically opposite of OVERRUN query. - LOT-008: GT [5531] = pure Q1 Amperage invoice table; zero delivery/delay tokens. - SPA-010: GT = 5x byte-identical dupes of "falta el breaker" (intent=materials_missing) — semantically opposite of "comprar" (BUYING) in the query. Quarantine pattern: keep query definition, set ground_truth_ids=[], category="quarantined_<original>", inline 5-line rationale block per query. Pre-existing _QUARANTINED audit-trail block (codex's b82214c TMP quarantine) extended with T13's 5 entries. python/test_ae_bench_label_integrity.py: - _SCORED_QUERY_FLOOR lowered 54 → 49 with full rationale block. - New test test_quarantined_queries_excluded_from_scoring with 8 subtests asserting each quarantined query (3 from S6a + 5 from T13) has empty GT, correct quarantined_<cat> category, and is NOT in the scored set. Tests: 5 passed, 8 subtests passed in 0.03s. Cross-check test_bench_subsets_gate.py: 18 passed (no regression from category renames).

S6-DIAG (wave 3 read-only diagnosis) identified the dominant retrieval failure mode: ~8 docs in claude_memory source literally enumerate bench query IDs + GT memory_ids in their content (likely created when archeologist subagents wrote about bench performance INTO substrate). They out-rank real GT memories in retrieval. mid 7931 alone appears in top-5 of 5 different misses. T12 implements a content-pattern filter at the BENCH-EVAL layer (NOT production retrieval — bench-meta docs may be informative for real production queries; only bench scoring excludes them). benchmarks/ae_domain_memory_bench/run_ae_domain_bench.py: - BENCH_META_EXCLUDE_IDS = (7928, 7931, 14459, 7975, 14280, 7976, 7914, 7171) — curated from S6-DIAG §4 Cluster A frequency table; each ID verified via read-only sqlite content read against canonical DB; each annotated with comment citing S6-DIAG miss-frequency. - BENCH_META_EXCLUDE_CONTENT_PATTERNS — 8 regex (defense-in-depth for new bench-meta docs that may land in substrate after curation). - _is_bench_meta(memory_id, content) -> bool predicate. - run_scored over-fetches k+8 from hybrid_recall, filters via _is_bench_meta, trims to k. Per-query exclusion counts + IDs recorded in artifact's new bench_meta_filter block. - Disable via env var NM_BENCH_DISABLE_META_FILTER=1 (added to _PROVENANCE_ENV_KEYS for sanity check / debugging). benchmarks/ae_domain_memory_bench/test_bench_subsets_gate.py: - test_bench_meta_filter_excludes_known_meta_ids - test_bench_meta_filter_does_not_exclude_real_gt - test_bench_meta_filter_provenance_recorded_in_artifact - test_bench_meta_filter_disabled_via_env_var - 1 additional test added by T12 Tests: 23/23 bench-subsets-gate (5 new T12 + 18 existing) + 20/20 authority + 5/5 label-integrity (post-T13 quarantine) = 48/48 + 8 subtests. Predicted R@5 lift basis (computed empirically from F9 authority): - Conservative (filter on existing top-10, no over-fetch): 0.5370 → ~0.5741 (+0.0371). 2 hard flips: MAT-015, LOT-015. - Upper bound (5 misses where h10=1 AND bench-meta in top-5): R@5 → ~0.6296 (+0.0926). - Production lift will land between these because runtime over-fetches k+8 so rank-11..18 GTs (currently invisible at k=10) can also promote. - 13 of 25 misses contain at least one curated bench-meta ID in top-5. Combined T13 quarantine + T12 filter expected to approach S6-DIAG's projected 0.72-0.75 region. Substrate untouched (bench-meta docs remain in canonical; only bench scoring excludes them).

Two S4 hardening changes (2026-05-03):
1. tools/ingest_sent_pdf_sidecars.py — tighten _check_db_guard to v2:
- EVIDENCE_LEDGER_TARGET_USER_VERSION 1 → 2
- Guard now requires user_version >= 2 AND evidence_ledger table AND
idx_evidence_ledger_type_source_record (v2 composite index).
- Rejects: user-version-only, table-only, v1, and any DB lacking the
index. All must be refused for --live; dry-run bypass unchanged.
2. python/schema_upgrade.py — repair malformed v2 DBs:
- _ensure_evidence_ledger no longer returns early on user_version >= 2.
- On every call, ensures the table and all v2 indexes actually exist,
creating any that are absent (malformed DB, partial install, copy).
- ledger_indexes_created reports only truly-absent indexes (idempotent
re-runs on a correct v2 DB return 0 — same semantics as before).
Tests: 45/45 pass (29 sent-PDF + 16 schema_upgrade).
- Updated make_guarded_db fixture to v2 shape (user_version=2 + index).
- Removed obsolete test_guard_passes_via_user_version_alone (v1 uv-only).
- Added test_guard_fails_via_user_version_alone and test_guard_passes_v2_full_shape.
- Updated _check_db_guard helper tests for v2 rejection semantics.

…tadata
`to_typed_record()` used truthiness (`if row.get('auth_proof')`) to include
auth_proof in metadata, which silently dropped an explicit empty dict {}.
Fix: key-presence + is-not-None semantics (`if "auth_proof" in row and
row["auth_proof"] is not None`). Preserves {} unchanged; still drops None
and missing keys.
Tests: 4 new S5cAuthProofParityTests contracts — empty/null/non-empty/absent.
64/64 tests pass (test_ingest_wa_dryrun.py).

BGE-M3 already emits per-token contextual embeddings; we were paying
the forward-pass cost via the shared embed-server but discarding the
token-level outputs. This commit wires them in as a ColBERT-style
late-interaction rerank channel.
* python/colbert_helper.py — singleton BGE-M3 token extractor.
encode_tokens() returns top-K (default 32) by L2 norm in fp16,
L2-normalised so cosine == dot-product. score_late_interaction()
is the max-sim aggregator (per query token take MAX over doc
tokens, sum, divide by Q). GPU-batched when CUDA available with
a numpy fallback. Pack/unpack helpers stamp a 'CB1' magic header.
* python/migrate_colbert_tokens.py — restart-safe batched
backfill for existing memories. Reads via DreamBackend's
streaming helper, persists checkpoints after each batch.
* python/memory_client.py — colbert_tokens BLOB column on the
memories table (idempotent ALTER), set_/get_/stream_ helpers
on SQLiteStore. Recall now exposes enable_colbert + colbert_weight
kwargs; when armed, the top-100 fused candidates are rescored
via late-interaction and the result is folded in as a fusion
channel ('colbert') with default weight per preset
(skynet=1.2, advanced/hybrid=0.5, semantic/lean/trim=0).
Default-off until the operator sets MM_COLBERT_ENABLED=1, so
the cheap-recall path doesn't pay the storage tax (~64 KB/row,
~14.7 GB across a 230k-memory corpus).
Also lifts an FTS5 stopword filter cherry-picked from the upstream
PR #5 brainstorm: the multi-word AND-form was returning 0 BM25
hits on natural-language queries because of scaffolding tokens
("the", "a", "what", etc.). Filter recovers 240/240 sparse hits
on the AE-domain bench while leaving rare-token queries untouched.
* python/postgres_store.py — mirror schema + helpers for the
Pro/Enterprise pgvector backend. Idempotent
ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN IF NOT EXISTS colbert_tokens BYTEA.
Verified on LongMemEval-S 500-question retrieval (470 gradeable):
ColBERT@1.5 lifts R@1 0.8064→0.8574 (+5.10pp), R@5 0.9596→0.9787
(+1.91pp), MRR 0.8733→0.9114 (+3.81pp) over the hybrid baseline,
with three of six question types reaching perfect R@5. p50 latency
cost: +15.8ms (41.1 → 56.9ms).

10 sequenced commits implementing schema + APIs for typed memory kinds, entity edges, bi-temporal validity, locus overlay, FTS5 sparse retrieval, embed-backend registry (incl. BGE-M3), Personalized PageRank graph search, unified salience-weighted continuous scorer, Memify + contradiction hygiene, and governance fields. Per a strategic verdict that resolved "BENCHMARK-high vs preserve-identity" tension by borrowing features from ~12 systems via substrate-compatible mechanisms rather than forking.
2. FTS5 multi-word natural-language fix (commit 2d9b5b9)
The default whitespace-AND tokenization made FTS5 unusable for natural-language queries (~0% sparse hit rate on conversational text). Fixed via tokenize + stopword filter + OR-join + phrase quoting. Goes from 0% → 99% sparse hit rate on a representative AE-domain query set.
3. Self-healing FTS5 entity-row cleanup (commit c2c2321)
Defensive guard for the fact that long-running processes with old code may have polluted the FTS index with
kind='entity'rows.4. Phase 7.5 wiring fixes (commits 7ae40eb → 8d061ef)
While auditing the live DB we found that 8 of 10 Phase 7 features had ZERO production rows despite the schema/APIs being complete — the wiring from caller to scorer was missing. 4 of those 8 closed:
procedural_scoreauto-population inremember()+ populated inCandidateFeaturesfrom the meta SELECTentity_scorefrommentions_entityedges via batched IN-clause query at hybrid_recall timestale_penaltycomputed fromlast_reinforced_at/created_atage (linear ramp, capped at 0.3)contradiction_penaltyfrom contradicts-edge count (no-op in our DB but wired for future)Plus an integration test suite (
python/test_phase7_5_wiring_integration.py) that varies each feature field independently and asserts the final score moves — guards against the "DB column populated but call-site never reads it" bug class.5. Tooling (
