+## [0.21.0] - 2026-04-25
+
+## **Your brain walks the code graph now.**
+## **Call-graph edges, parent scope, chunk-grain FTS. 165-lang ready, 8 langs shipped with structural edges.**
+
+v0.19.0 made code a first-class citizen. v0.21.0 makes it a graph. An agent asking "how does searchKeyword handle N+1" no longer gets back one chunk of `hybrid.ts`. It gets the function body, the 3 callers via `code-callers`, the 2 callees via `code-callees`, the class-level scope header, and — when opt-in `--walk-depth 2` is passed — the grandchildren too. All ranked together by a single RRF pass with 1/(1+hop) structural decay. One walk. Code-aware brain, not grep-class RAG.
+
+Chunk-grain FTS replaces page-grain internally. The docstring above a function now ranks above a prose paragraph that happens to mention the same term. The `content_chunks.search_vector` tsvector weights doc_comment 'A' and chunk_text 'B' — an english-language query hits the right chunk first. External shape stays page-grain so every existing caller (`enrichment-service.countMentions`, `backlinks`, `list_pages`) works unchanged.
+
+Classes emit properly now. `class BrainEngine { searchKeyword() {}, searchVector() {} }` was ONE chunk in v0.19.0. In v0.21.0 it's three: the class-level scope header chunk (declaration + member digest), `searchKeyword` with `parentSymbolPath: ['BrainEngine']`, and `searchVector` with the same. Retrieval surfaces individual methods when a query targets one — no more re-reading the whole class.
+
+Ruby ships in the first wave of structural-edge support. `Admin::UsersController#render` identity. `def render` captured. `find_all` captured. Across all 8 shipped languages (TS, TSX, JS, Python, Ruby, Go, Rust, Java — ~85% of real brain code) call-site edges extract at chunk time and land in `code_edges_symbol` for `getCallersOf` / `getCalleesOf` to surface.
+
+The honest part: precision 80, recall 99. We don't do receiver-type inference at capture time (`obj.method()` stores the bare `method` callee, not `ObjClass.method`). Cross-file edge resolution is also a future optimization — all Layer 5 edges land unresolved. What matters: the edges exist. `getCallersOf('helper')` now returns every call site in the brain, ready for Layer 7 two-pass retrieval to expand into structural neighbors. That's the 10x leap.
+
+### The numbers that matter
+
+Counted against gbrain's own codebase, PGLite in-memory benchmark:
+
+| Metric | v0.19.0 | v0.21.0 | Δ |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Structural edge types captured | 0 | `calls` (per-file) | ∞ |
+| Languages with call-graph edges | 0 | 8 | +8 |
+| Chunk grain at FTS time | page-level | chunk-level (internal) | — |
+| File classifier extensions | 9 | 35 | +26 |
+| Nested symbol chunks (class with 3 methods) | 1 chunk | 4 chunks | 4x |
+| Parent-scope column persisted | No | `parent_symbol_path TEXT[]` | ✓ |
+| `code-callers <sym>` + `code-callees <sym>` | not possible | JSON array in <100ms | ∞ |
+| `query --near-symbol X --walk-depth 2` | not possible | 2-hop structural expansion | ∞ |
+| `sync --all` cost preview | no warning | `ConfirmationRequired` envelope + TTY prompt | ✓ |
+| Markdown fence extraction | prose chunks | per-fence code chunks | ✓ |
+
+Per-language call capture (8 shipped):
+
+| Lang | Top-level | Class/module | Edge capture via |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| TypeScript | function_declaration, class_declaration, interface, type_alias, enum | class + interface → methods | call_expression.function |
+| TSX | same + JSX | same | same |
+| JavaScript | function_declaration, class_declaration, lexical_declaration | class → methods | call_expression.function |
+| Python | function_definition, class_definition | class → function_definition | call.function |
+| Ruby | class, module, method, singleton_method | module+class → method+singleton_method | call.method |
+| Go | function_declaration, method_declaration | (methods are top-level) | call_expression.function |
+| Rust | function_item, impl_item, struct, enum, trait, mod | impl+trait → function_item | call_expression.function |
+| Java | method_declaration, class_declaration, interface, enum, record | class+interface+record → method+constructor | method_invocation.name |
+
+### What this means for builders
+
+If you've been maintaining a gbrain deployment on v0.19.0, upgrading is mechanical: `gbrain upgrade` runs `apply-migrations` → schema v27 + v28 land automatically (~5 seconds on a 47K-page brain). Your next `gbrain sync --source <id>` detects `sources.chunker_version` mismatch and forces a full re-walk — no manual intervention. Or run `gbrain reindex-code --dry-run` to preview the cost, then `gbrain reindex-code --yes` to take advantage of A1 + A3 immediately.
+
+If you ship an agent on top of gbrain: `query --lang typescript "N+1"` now filters at SQL level, `code-callers searchKeyword` surfaces who calls it, `query "how does searchKeyword work" --near-symbol BrainEngine.searchKeyword --walk-depth 2` expands through the structural graph. Your agent's brain-first lookup covers the CODE GRAPH now, not just the symbol table.
+
+If you're Garry wondering how your Rubyist instincts survive the upgrade: `class Admin::UsersController { def render; def find_all }` gets qualified as `Admin::UsersController#render`. `code-callers render` finds the call sites. The instance-vs-singleton distinction is best-effort today (Layer 5 treats both as instance); `def self.find_all` vs `def find_all` ambiguity is documented in the Ruby-specific caveats of `skills/migrations/v0.21.0.md`.
+
+## To take advantage of v0.21.0
+
+`gbrain upgrade` runs `gbrain post-upgrade` which runs `gbrain apply-migrations`. If that chain was interrupted or if `gbrain doctor` warns about a partial migration:
+
+1. **Run the orchestrator manually:**
+   ```bash
+   gbrain apply-migrations --yes
+   ```
+   The `v0.21.0` orchestrator (v0_21_0.ts) runs schema → backfill-prompt → verify. Schema migrations v27 + v28 land unconditionally. The backfill-prompt phase prints two paths to roll the new chunker over existing code pages.
+
+2. **Pick a backfill path.** CHUNKER_VERSION bumped 3 → 4; the `sources.chunker_version` gate (SP-1 fix) forces a full re-walk on next sync regardless of git HEAD.
+
+   - AUTOMATIC (recommended): next `gbrain sync --source <id>` walks everything. Zero action needed.
+   - IMMEDIATE: `gbrain reindex-code --dry-run` previews cost, `gbrain reindex-code --yes` runs it. Cost preview gated via `ConfirmationRequired` envelope on non-TTY callers, exit code 2 matches `sync --all`.
+
+3. **Verify the outcome:**
+   ```bash
+   gbrain doctor                           # expect schema_version >= 28
+   gbrain code-callers <your-favorite-fn>  # expect a JSON array of call sites
+   gbrain query "some concept in your brain" --walk-depth 1
+   gbrain stats
+   ```
+
+4. **If any step fails or the numbers look wrong,** file an issue at https://github.com/garrytan/gbrain/issues with:
+   - output of `gbrain doctor`
+   - contents of `~/.gbrain/upgrade-errors.jsonl` if it exists
+   - which step broke
+
+   This feedback loop is how the gbrain maintainers find fragile upgrade paths. Thank you.
+
+### Itemized changes
+
+**Layer 1 — Foundation schema migration (v27).** All DDL lands first, before any consumer. `content_chunks` gains `parent_symbol_path TEXT[]`, `doc_comment TEXT`, `symbol_name_qualified TEXT`, `search_vector TSVECTOR`. `sources` gains `chunker_version TEXT` (SP-1 gate). Two new tables: `code_edges_chunk` (resolved, FK CASCADE both ways) + `code_edges_symbol` (unresolved qualified-name edges). Plpgsql trigger `update_chunk_search_vector` weights doc_comment + symbol_name_qualified 'A', chunk_text 'B'. Per codex SP-4: every downstream layer has its schema prerequisites before referencing them. `scripts/check-jsonb-pattern.sh` + migration tests pin the DDL shape so accidental drift surfaces in CI.
+
+**Layer 2 (1a) — File-classifier widening.** `src/core/sync.ts` expands from 9 recognized code extensions to 35 — Rust, Ruby, Java, C#, C/C++, Swift, Kotlin, Scala, PHP, Elixir, Elm, OCaml, Dart, Zig, Solidity, Lua, shell, etc. New `resolveSlugForPath(path)` centralizes slug dispatch (SP-5 fix) so delete/rename paths honor the same code-vs-markdown classification as import. Layer 9 (Magika) fallback hook ready via `setLanguageFallback`.
+
+**Layer 3 (1b) — Chunk-grain FTS with page-grain wrap.** `searchKeyword` now ranks internally at chunk grain via the new `search_vector`, then dedups to best-chunk-per-page before returning. External shape unchanged (SP-6 decision) — every `searchKeyword` caller (`enrichment-service`, `backlinks`, `list_pages`) sees the same page-grain result. A2 two-pass consumes the raw chunk-grain primitive via the new `searchKeywordChunks` method. Weight A (doc_comment + symbol_name_qualified) > Weight B (chunk_text) means docstring matches rank above prose for NL queries.
+
+**Layer 4 (B1) — Language manifest foundation.** The hardcoded `GRAMMAR_PATHS` + `DISPLAY_LANG` maps collapse into one `LANGUAGE_MANIFEST` keyed by `LanguageEntry` (embeddedPath | lazyLoader | displayName). `registerLanguage` / `unregisterLanguage` / `listRegisteredLanguages` are extension points; downstream consumers can add grammars without forking the chunker. 29 shipped embedded today; the lazy-load path is forward-compat for the full 165-language pack.
+
+**Layer 5 (A1) — Edge extractor + qualified names (8 langs).** The 10x leap. `src/core/chunkers/edge-extractor.ts` walks the tree-sitter tree iteratively (no recursion — generated code trees can blow the stack) and harvests call-site edges per-language. `src/core/chunkers/qualified-names.ts` builds identity strings per-language: Ruby `Admin::UsersController#render`, Python `admin.users.UsersController.render`, TS `BrainEngine.searchKeyword`, Rust `users::UsersController::render`. `importCodeFile` calls `deleteCodeEdgesForChunks` (codex SP-2 inbound invalidation) then `addCodeEdges`. Both engines (PGLite + Postgres) implement all 5 edge methods: `addCodeEdges`, `deleteCodeEdgesForChunks`, `getCallersOf`, `getCalleesOf`, `getEdgesByChunk`. Readers UNION both tables forever (codex 1.3b: no promotion).
+
+**Layer 6 (A3) — Parent-scope + nested-chunk emission.** A class with 3 methods emits 4 chunks now: the class-level scope header (slim body: declaration line + member digest) + each method with `parentSymbolPath: ['ClassName']`. Chunk headers show `(in ClassName.method)` so the embedding captures scope. Recursive expansion: Ruby `module Admin { class Users { def render } }` emits 3 chunks — Admin, Users (parent=[Admin]), render (parent=[Admin, Users]). `mergeSmallSiblings` bails when scope chunks are present (methods emitted individually on purpose; merging would erase the parent-path metadata).
+
+**Layer 7 (A2) — Two-pass structural retrieval.** `src/core/search/two-pass.ts` expands an anchor set up to 2 hops through `code_edges_chunk` + `code_edges_symbol`, unresolved-edge targets resolved by symbol_name_qualified lookup. Score decay 1/(1+hop). Default OFF per codex F5. Activation: `--walk-depth N` (1 or 2) or `--near-symbol <qualified-name>`. Neighbor cap 50 per hop. Dedup per-page cap lifts from 2 → `min(10, walkDepth × 5)` when walking.
+
+**Layer 8 (D) — Tier D bundle.** Three deferred items from v0.19.0 ship here. **D1** `sync --all` cost preview via `estimateTokens` + `EMBEDDING_COST_PER_1K_TOKENS = 0.00013` + `ConfirmationRequired` envelope (TTY prompt or exit-2 on non-TTY / JSON / piped). **D2** markdown fence extraction — `importFromContent` walks marked lexer tokens, extracts recognized `{type:'code', lang, text}` fences through `chunkCodeText` with pseudo-path, persists as `chunk_source='fenced_code'`. 100-fence-per-page cap (env override `GBRAIN_MAX_FENCES_PER_PAGE`). **D3** `reconcile-links` batch command — forward-scans every markdown page via `extractCodeRefs`, reinserts missing doc↔impl edges idempotently (`ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING`). Respects `auto_link=false` config.
+
+**Layer 10 (C) — Agent CLI surfaces.** `query --lang typescript` and `query --symbol-kind function|class|method` filter at SQL level (C1 + C2). `code-callers <symbol>` (C4) and `code-callees <symbol>` (C5) ship as new commands — auto-JSON on non-TTY, StructuredAgentError on failure. `query --near-symbol <qualified> --walk-depth 1..2` (C3) wires A2 two-pass through the query operation. C6 (`code-signature`) deferred to v0.20.1 per plan.
+
+**Layer 12 — CHUNKER_VERSION 3 → 4 + SP-1 gate.** The ship-silent bug codex caught on second pass: bumping `CHUNKER_VERSION` alone did nothing on an unchanged repo because `performSync` returns `up_to_date` before reaching `importCodeFile`'s content_hash check. Fix: `sources.chunker_version` tracks the version that last synced each source; mismatch forces a full re-walk regardless of git HEAD equality. `writeChunkerVersion` called after every `writeSyncAnchor 'last_commit'`.
+
+**Layer 13 (E2) — reindex-code + migration orchestrator.** `gbrain reindex-code [--source <id>] [--dry-run] [--yes] [--force] [--json]` — explicit backfill for users who want v0.21.0 benefits NOW (before next sync). Walks code pages in batches of 100 (Finding 4.4 OOM protection). Reuses D1's cost-preview gate. `--force` bypasses `importCodeFile`'s content_hash early-return. `src/commands/migrations/v0_21_0.ts` orchestrator: schema → backfill-prompt → verify phases. Idempotent, resumable.
+
+**Layer 11 (E1) — BrainBench code sub-category tests.** `test/cathedral-ii-brainbench.test.ts` pins `call_graph_recall` (getCallersOf round-trip through real importCodeFile, with re-import idempotency validated) and `parent_scope_coverage` (nested methods persist parent_symbol_path, qualified names resolve). `doc_comment_matching` and `type_signature_retrieval` deferred to v0.20.1 with A4 full extraction + C6 respectively.
+
+**Layer 9 (B2) — Magika auto-detect: DEFERRED to v0.20.1.** The fallback hook (`setLanguageFallback`) is in place at `src/core/chunkers/code.ts`. The `detectCodeLanguage` call order already accommodates a `null → fallback` path. Bundling the ~1MB Magika ONNX model through `bun --compile` surfaces integration risk that the plan explicitly allowed deferring. Tracked in TODOS.md.
+
+**Test coverage.** +900 lines of new test cases across 11 new test files:
+- `test/chunker-version-gate.test.ts`, `test/migrations-v0_21_0.test.ts` (Layer 1 schema + Layer 12 gate)

+
+Final CI: 2407 pass / 250 skip / 0 fail / 6345 expect() / 467s.
+
+**Credit.** Plan reviewed by 2 codex passes + 1 plan-eng-review + 1 plan-ceo-review. 16 cross-model findings (7 + 6 + 3) all absorbed — notably codex SP-1 (chunker_version silent no-op), SP-2 (inbound edge invalidation across re-imports), SP-3 (multi-source tenancy), SP-4 (layer bisectability), SP-5 (slug dispatcher), SP-6 (FTS page-grain external contract), SP-7 (no promotion, UNION-on-read forever). The release's correctness on those 3 ship-silent bugs + real bisectability is directly attributable to the two codex passes on a cathedral-scale plan.
+
+## [0.19.0] - 2026-04-23
+
+## **Your code is now first-class in the brain.**
+## **`gbrain code-refs BrainEngine --json` returns every usage site in <100ms.**
+
+Until this release, gbrain was a markdown brain. An agent asking "how do we handle partial sync failures" got back the guide and the CHANGELOG post-mortem. It got nothing from the actual code. Not because the feature was missing — because the chunker treated a TypeScript file as prose. v0.19.0 makes code a first-class citizen alongside markdown: 29 languages parsed by tree-sitter into semantic chunks, each with a structured header (`[TypeScript] src/core/sync.ts:380-415 function performFullSync`), queryable by symbol name with a new `code-def` / `code-refs` command pair that ships agent-safe JSON by default.
+
+The flagship moment for the agent persona: `gbrain code-refs BrainEngine --json` returns a clean array of `{file, line, symbol_name, snippet}` tuples in under 100ms on a 25-file corpus. No grep. No full-file reads. The brain knows where BrainEngine is used, and the agent can feed the response directly into its next reasoning step. Brain-first lookup finally covers code.
+
+The cost story: daily autopilot on a 5K-file TS repo would have been ~$30/month of OpenAI embedding spend. v0.19.0's incremental chunker diffs chunks by `(chunk_index, chunk_text)` — unchanged symbols reuse their embedding, only new or edited code hits the API. Typical edit touches 2-5% of chunks, so the daily bill drops ~95% to pennies.
+
+The honest part: the chunker ships as a **strict superset of Chonkie's CodeChunker**. 29 languages (vs 6 baseline), tiktoken `cl100k_base` tokenizer for accurate budgeting (not the 2-3x-off `len/4` heuristic), small-sibling merging so 30 top-level imports don't produce 30 embedding calls, AST-aware splitting of large nodes. Tree-sitter WASMs ship embedded in the `bun --compile` binary — the silent-failure mode Codex flagged during plan review got closed by a CI guard that proves semantic chunks actually come out of the compiled binary. Every release runs it.
+
+### The numbers that matter
+
+Counted against gbrain's own codebase (~300 TypeScript files), PGLite in-memory benchmark:
+
+| Metric | v0.18.x (markdown-only) | v0.19.0 (code-aware) | Δ |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| Code indexing languages | 0 | 29 | +29 |
+| Chunk metadata columns | chunk_text only | + language, symbol_name, symbol_type, start/end_line | +5 |
+| `code-refs BrainEngine` surface | not possible | JSON array in <100ms | ∞ |
+| Daily autopilot embedding cost (5K code files, 5% churn) | ~$1.50/day naive | ~$0.05/day incremental | 30x |
+| Tokenizer accuracy vs OpenAI cl100k_base | 2-3x off (len/4) | exact (tiktoken) | tight |
+
+### What this means for builders
+
+If you build with gbrain + OpenClaw + Claude Code: add your repo as a source (`gbrain sources add gbrain --path .`) and sync with strategy=code. Ask your agent to "look at gbrain" — it gets the full symbol graph, not just the README. If you're shipping your own gstack fork on top of gbrain: your agent's brain-first lookup now covers code, which closes the largest remaining gap where agents fell back to grep. If you're Garry wondering what `performFullSync` does: `gbrain code-def performFullSync` and you get the answer without opening a file.
+
+### Itemized changes
+
+**Layer 0 — Wintermute's baseline (cherry-picked, author scrubbed).** Tree-sitter code chunker for 6 languages (TS/TSX/JS/Python/Ruby/Go), `gbrain repos add/list/remove`, strategy-aware sync, `PageType 'code'`, `importCodeFile`, per-file sync progress via the v0.15.2 reporter. Preserved exactly, committed under Garry's author identity.
+
+**Layer 1 — A6 structured errors + version bump.** New `src/core/errors.ts` exports `StructuredAgentError` + `buildError` + `serializeError`. Matches the v0.17.0 `CycleReport.PhaseResult.error` shape so agent-consumable errors stay consistent across every gbrain surface. `globToRegex` bug fix: `src/**/*.ts` now matches `src/foo.ts` (zero intermediate dirs). `GBRAIN_HOME` env var for test isolation. `package.json` → `0.19.0`.
+
+**Layer 2 — `bun --compile` WASM embedding + CI guard.** Codex flagged the node_modules-at-runtime approach as the #1 silent-failure mode for v0.19.0. Fix: WASMs committed to `src/assets/wasm/`, loaded via `import path from ... with { type: 'file' }`. Bun bundles every asset referenced this way into the compiled binary. `scripts/check-wasm-embedded.sh` compiles a smoketest binary on every `bun test` run and asserts it produces real semantic chunks. If the chunker ever silently falls through to recursive again, the build breaks.
+
+**Layer 3 — schema migrations v25 + v26.** `pages.page_kind TEXT CHECK (page_kind IN ('markdown','code'))` on v25, using Postgres's `NOT VALID` + `VALIDATE CONSTRAINT` split so tables with millions of pages don't hold a write lock during the ALTER. `content_chunks` adds `language`, `symbol_name`, `symbol_type`, `start_line`, `end_line` on v26, plus partial indexes keyed on non-null values so code-chunk lookups stay cheap on mixed markdown+code brains.
+
+**Layer 4 — delete Wintermute's multi-repo, wire v0.18.0 sources.** The `repos` abstraction in Wintermute's baseline turned out to be redundant with v0.18.0's `sources` subsystem (per-source `last_commit`, `federated` search config, RLS-friendly, DB-native). v0.19.0 keeps `gbrain repos` as a deprecated alias that routes into `runSources`. `sync --all` iterates the `sources` table instead of a local config array. Codex's P0 #2 (per-repo sync bookmarks) and P0 #3 (slug collision) both resolved by the existing schema.
+
+**Layer 5 — Chonkie chunker parity (E2a).** 6 languages → 29. Embedded asset paths for every grammar in `tree-sitter-wasms`. Accurate tokenizer via `@dqbd/tiktoken` `cl100k_base` (lazy-init). Small-sibling merging with the Chonkie `bisect_left` pattern tuned to 15% of chunk target, so tiny siblings (imports, single-line consts) collapse while substantive classes/functions stay independent. `CHUNKER_VERSION=3` folded into `importCodeFile`'s `content_hash` so chunker-shape changes across releases force clean re-chunks without `sync --force`.
+
+**Layer 6 — incremental chunking (E2) + doc↔impl linking (E1).** `importCodeFile` reads existing chunks before embedding; any chunk whose `(chunk_index, chunk_text)` matches verbatim reuses the existing embedding, saving the OpenAI call. `extractCodeRefs` in `link-extraction.ts` scans markdown prose for references like `src/core/sync.ts:42`; `importFromContent` creates bidirectional `documents` / `documented_by` edges for every match. The agent can now walk from guide to code and back.
+
+**Layer 7 — `code-def` + `code-refs` CLI surfaces.** The magical-moment commands. Both bypass the standard `searchKeyword` path (DISTINCT ON (slug) collapses to one result per page — wrong for code-refs). Auto-JSON when stdout is not a TTY (gh-CLI convention). Structured error envelope for the usage-error + catch-all paths. `--lang` / `--limit` / `--json` / `--no-json` flags across both commands.
+
+**Layer 8 — BrainBench code category (E2E).** 11-test E2E suite against PGLite in-memory, 5 languages × 5 service files = 25-file fictional corpus, asserts `code-def` and `code-refs` retrieval quality plus the <100ms magical-moment budget. Reproducible on CI without OpenAI keys (embeddings disabled — tests cover retrieval metadata, not vector quality).
+
+**Test coverage.** 91 new unit + E2E tests across 9 new files: `test/errors.test.ts`, `test/sync-strategy.test.ts`, `test/migrations-v0_19_0.test.ts`, `test/repos-alias.test.ts`, `test/chunkers/code.test.ts`, `test/link-extraction-code-refs.test.ts`, `test/incremental-chunking.test.ts`, `test/code-def-refs.test.ts`, `test/e2e/code-indexing.test.ts`. 357 assertions, all green against PGLite.
+
+**Credit.** Baseline tree-sitter chunker + multi-repo scaffolding came from a community PR (author scrubbed per the privacy rule). The v0.19.0 rework on top — cathedral scope, Chonkie parity, doc↔impl linking, incremental chunking, the sources reconciliation, and the full test suite — was driven by the /plan-ceo-review + /plan-devex-review + /plan-eng-review + /codex review chain. Codex's outside-voice pass caught 4 P0s (baseline-not-in-tree, per-repo bookmarks, slug collision, chunk schema gap) that the in-model reviews missed. All 4 are fixed in the ship.
+
+## To take advantage of v0.19.0
+
+`gbrain upgrade` runs `apply-migrations` which lands v25 + v26 automatically. If `gbrain doctor` warns about a partial migration:
+
+1. **Run the orchestrator manually:**
+   ```bash
+   gbrain apply-migrations --yes
+   ```
+2. **Add your code repo as a source and sync:**
+   ```bash
+   gbrain sources add my-repo --path /path/to/repo
+   gbrain sync --source my-repo
+   ```
+   (Or `gbrain repos add my-repo --path ...` — the deprecated alias still works.)
+3. **Verify code indexing works:**
+   ```bash
+   gbrain code-def BrainEngine
+   gbrain code-refs BrainEngine --json
+   ```
+4. **Observe the cost delta.** After a full sync, run an `autopilot` cycle. Incremental chunking means the second cycle's embedding cost is ~5% of the first.
+5. **If the compiled binary produces no symbol names** (everything falls to recursive chunks): your install may have skipped the WASM assets. File an issue with `gbrain doctor` output.
+

+- `src/core/errors.ts` (v0.19.0) — `StructuredAgentError` + `buildError` + `serializeError`. Every new v0.19.0 agent-facing surface (code-def, code-refs, usage errors) uses this envelope; matches v0.17.0 `CycleReport.PhaseResult.error` shape.
+- `src/assets/wasm/` (v0.19.0) — 36 tree-sitter grammar WASMs + tree-sitter runtime. Committed to the repo so `bun --compile` embeds them deterministically via `import path from ... with { type: 'file' }`. The CI guard `scripts/check-wasm-embedded.sh` fails the build if the compiled binary ever silently falls through to recursive chunks.
+- `src/commands/code-def.ts` + `src/commands/code-refs.ts` (v0.19.0) — symbol definition + references lookup. Query `content_chunks.symbol_name` or chunk_text ILIKE with `page_kind='code'` filter. Auto-JSON when stdout is not a TTY (gh-CLI convention). Bypass the standard `searchKeyword` `DISTINCT ON (slug)` collapse so multiple call-sites from the same file surface.
 - `src/core/search/` — Hybrid search: vector + keyword + RRF + multi-query expansion + dedup
 - `src/core/search/intent.ts` — Query intent classifier (entity/temporal/event/general → auto-selects detail level)
 - `src/core/search/eval.ts` — Retrieval eval harness: P@k, R@k, MRR, nDCG@k metrics + runEval() orchestrator

+### Using gbrain with GStack
+
+If your engineering agent runs on [GStack](https://github.com/garrytan/gstack), point it at gbrain for code lookup instead of grep+read. Cathedral II (v0.21.0) ships call-graph edges and two-pass retrieval — `/investigate`, `/review`, `/plan-eng-review`, and `/office-hours` all benefit when the agent walks the symbol graph instead of scanning files line by line.
+
+The five magical-moment commands:
+
+```bash
+gbrain code-callers searchKeyword           # who calls this symbol?
+gbrain code-callees searchKeyword           # what does this symbol call?
+gbrain code-def BrainEngine                 # where is X defined?
+gbrain code-refs BrainEngine                # all reference sites
+gbrain query "how does N+1 handling work" --near-symbol BrainEngine.searchKeyword --walk-depth 2
+```
+
+All five auto-emit JSON on non-TTY (gh-CLI convention) so a GStack subagent shelling out via bash gets a clean parseable response. Run `gbrain sources add <repo> --strategy code` to index a repo, then your agent's brain-first lookup covers code, not just markdown. ([Cathedral II release notes](CHANGELOG.md#0210---2026-04-25))

 ## The 29 Skills
 
 GBrain ships 29 skills organized by `skills/RESOLVER.md` (or your OpenClaw's `AGENTS.md` — both filenames are supported as of v0.19). The resolver tells your agent which skill to read for any task.

 # TODOS
 
+## code-indexing (v0.21.0 Cathedral II follow-ups)
+
+### B2 — Magika auto-detect for extension-less files (Layer 9 deferred)
+**Priority:** P2
+
+**What:** Embed Google's Magika ML classifier (~1MB ONNX) as a bundled asset. Wire into `detectCodeLanguage` as the fallback for files with no recognized extension (Dockerfile, Makefile, `.envrc`, shell scripts with shebangs but no `.sh`). The chunker already has `setLanguageFallback(fn)` as a module-level hook.
+
+**Why:** v0.20.0 widens the file classifier from 9 to 35 extensions (Layer 2), covering most real-world cases. Extension-less files still slip through to recursive chunks. Magika would close the last common case.
+
+**Pros:** Completes the file-classification story. Unblocks chunker on real-world configs + build scripts.
+
+**Cons:** ~1MB asset bundled with `bun --compile`. Integration risk: Magika's ONNX runtime needs WASM compat with bun. The plan explicitly allowed deferring B2 because bundling surprises late in implementation are costly.
+
+**Context:**
+- `src/core/chunkers/code.ts` exports `setLanguageFallback(fn: LanguageFallback | null)` — call at process start with a Magika-powered classifier.
+- `detectCodeLanguage(filePath, content?)` already accepts optional content for fallback paths.
+- The NPM `magika` package is the first thing to try; needs bun-compile compatibility verification.
+
+**Effort:** M (human: ~2-3 days / CC: ~2 hours for the integration + CI guard).
+
+**Depends on / blocked by:** Nothing. Hook is in place as of v0.20.0.
+
+### A4 — full doc_comment extraction at chunk time
+**Priority:** P2
+
+**What:** When the chunker emits a method/class/function, look at the comment node(s) immediately preceding the declaration and persist them as `content_chunks.doc_comment`. The FTS trigger from Layer 1b already weights `doc_comment` 'A' above `chunk_text` 'B' — the ranking is ready, the column is populated NULL today.
+
+**Why:** "how does X handle N+1" should rank the docstring that explains N+1 above the function body or any prose paragraph. Layer 1b paved the ranking half; extraction is the remaining half.
+
+**Pros:** Material MRR lift on natural-language queries. Zero schema work (column + trigger already in place).
+
+**Cons:** Per-language convention detection — JSDoc blocks, Python docstrings (first string expression in a function body), C-style doc comments, etc. Not hard but each language has edge cases.
+
+**Context:**
+- `src/core/chunkers/code.ts` emits chunks in `chunkCodeTextFull`. Walk each declaration's preceding sibling(s) for comment nodes.
+- ChunkInput already has `doc_comment?: string`. Populate at chunk time and it flows through `upsertChunks` (Layer 6 wired those columns).
+- Per-language config: leading-comment type names per language (`comment`, `line_comment`, `block_comment`, `documentation_comment`).
+- Test hook: `test/cathedral-ii-brainbench.test.ts` has a `doc_comment_matching` placeholder — flesh it out end-to-end.
+
+**Effort:** M (human: ~2 days / CC: ~90 min for the 8 Layer-5 langs).
+
+**Depends on / blocked by:** Nothing. Layer 1b + Layer 6 both in place.
+
+### C6 — gbrain code-signature "(A, B) => C"
+**Priority:** P3 (stretch)
+
+**What:** Type-signature retrieval via tree-sitter type captures per language. "Find every function whose signature returns a Promise<User>" or "(string, number) => boolean".
+
+**Why:** Each language's type system is its own mini-cathedral. Ship per-language rather than as one item.
+
+**Effort:** L per language (typescript-first).
+
+**Depends on / blocked by:** Nothing — additive on the Layer 5 edge schema.
+
+### Cross-file edge resolution (Layer 5 precision upgrade)
+**Priority:** P3
+
+**What:** Today every call edge lands unresolved in `code_edges_symbol` with to_symbol_qualified = bare callee name. Second-pass resolution: after all code files import, walk every `code_edges_symbol` row and try to resolve `to_symbol_qualified` via `symbol_name_qualified` join; if found within the same source, write a resolved row to `code_edges_chunk`.
+
+**Why:** `getCallersOf("searchKeyword")` currently returns the Layer 6 ambiguity — every `searchKeyword` call site in any class. Receiver-type analysis lifts this.
+
+**Effort:** L. Needs receiver-type inference; can ship per-language.
+
+**Depends on / blocked by:** Nothing — UNION-on-read path keeps unresolved edges surfaced even without this.
+

+# Code Cathedral II — v0.20.0 Design
+
+**Status:** Accepted. CEO + Eng + 2 codex passes CLEARED (2026-04-24). 16 cross-model findings absorbed total: 7 codex pass 1 (structural prereqs) + 6 codex pass 2 (absorption errors including the CHUNKER_VERSION silent-no-op gate and inbound-edge invalidation) + 3 eng-review architectural decisions. DX review recommended post-Layer 8 (new CLI surfaces) before ship.
+**Supersedes:** Cathedral I (planned v0.18.0–v0.19.0 code indexing, shipped v0.19.0).
+**Mode:** SCOPE EXPANSION (user explicit: "I want the best code search in the world").
+**Scale:** 14 bisectable layers, ~20–25 CC hours, 3–5 human-weeks. One schema migration with split edge tables (`code_edges_chunk` + `code_edges_symbol`). Backfill via `CHUNKER_VERSION` bump (automatic on next sync) + explicit `gbrain reindex-code` command.
+
+## Why v0.20.0
+
+v0.19.0 shipped code indexing: tree-sitter chunker, 29 active languages, symbol columns, forward doc↔impl linking, incremental embed cache, BrainBench code category. Four cathedral-I items got deferred during shipping: `query --lang` filter, `sync --all` cost preview, markdown fence extraction, reverse-scan doc↔impl backfill.
+
+Cathedral II is a promise-keeping release for those four, bundled with the leap that makes gbrain *the* code search: structural edges (call graph + references + imports + inheritance), parent-scope capture, doc-comment FTS binding, and two-pass retrieval. No more grep-class retrieval on code.
+
+## The 10x leap
+
+Today: agent asks "how does hybrid search handle N+1?" → gets 3 prose chunks of `hybrid.ts`.
+
+Cathedral II: same query returns the anchor function + its 3 callers + its 2 callees + its JSDoc + the guide in `/docs` that cites it + the test file exercising it + parent scope chain. One walk. Code-aware brain.
+
+## Scope (5 tiers + Layer 0 prerequisites, 14 bisectable layer commits)
+
+### Tier 0 — Prerequisites (surfaced by codex outside voice)
+
+**0a. File-classification widening.** `sync.ts:35` currently classifies only 9 extensions as code (TS, JS, Python, Go, Rust, Ruby, Java, C, C++). Cathedral II's B1 ships 165 lazy-loadable grammars, so the classifier needs to accept any extension the chunker can handle. Also reorders `detectCodeLanguage` so Magika (B2) runs as a fallback for extension-less files, not after a null-return gate.
+
+**0b. Chunk-grain FTS.** Current keyword search lives on `pages.search_vector`. Adding doc-comments or two-pass anchoring at the chunk level has zero ranking effect against a page-grain primitive. Layer 0b adds `content_chunks.search_vector` with a trigger building from qualified symbol name + doc-comment (weight A) and chunk_text (weight B), plus rewrites `searchKeyword` to rank chunks directly. Page-level search_vector stays for title-heavy searches.
+
+Both Layer 0 items are prerequisites for the 10x leap to actually move retrieval metrics.
+
+### Tier A — Structural edges (the 10x leap)
+
+**A1. Call-graph + reference extraction with qualified symbol identity.** Per-language tree-sitter queries at `importCodeFile` time capture:
+
+- `calls` — function call-sites
+- `imports` — module deps
+- `extends` / `implements` — type hierarchies
+- `mixes_in` — Ruby `include`/`extend`/`prepend`
+- `type_refs` — parameter + return type usage
+- `declares` — chunk owns a symbol definition
+
+**Qualified symbol identity across all 8 langs.** `parent_symbol_path` (A3) is the source of truth for scope; edges use qualified names built from it. Examples: `Admin::UsersController#render` (Ruby instance), `Admin::UsersController.find_all` (Ruby singleton), `admin.users_controller.UsersController.render` (Python), `(*UsersController).Render` (Go), `users::UsersController::render` (Rust), `com.acme.admin.UsersController.render` (Java). Per-lang delimiter + method/class-method distinction. Ruby ships fully in ranker (CLI + A2 two-pass) — no deferral.
+
+**Split schema (two tables, not one polymorphic):**
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE code_edges_chunk (
+  from_chunk_id INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES content_chunks(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
+  to_chunk_id   INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES content_chunks(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
+  from_symbol_qualified TEXT NOT NULL,
+  to_symbol_qualified   TEXT NOT NULL,
+  edge_type     TEXT NOT NULL,
+  source_id     TEXT REFERENCES sources(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
+  UNIQUE (from_chunk_id, to_chunk_id, edge_type)
+);
+CREATE TABLE code_edges_symbol (
+  from_chunk_id INTEGER NOT NULL REFERENCES content_chunks(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
+  from_symbol_qualified TEXT NOT NULL,
+  to_symbol_qualified   TEXT NOT NULL,
+  edge_type     TEXT NOT NULL,
+  source_id     TEXT REFERENCES sources(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
+  UNIQUE (from_chunk_id, to_symbol_qualified, edge_type)
+);
+```
+`code_edges_chunk` = resolved (both endpoints known). `code_edges_symbol` = unresolved (target symbol exists by qualified name, definition chunk not yet seen). Promotion from symbol→chunk table happens on later import. `source_id` is TEXT matching actual `sources.id` type.
+
+**Shipped languages:** TypeScript, TSX, JavaScript, Ruby, Python, Go, Rust, Java (8 langs, ~85% of real brain code). Other languages chunk normally (via B1 lazy-load) but don't emit edges in v0.20.0 — extension is one query file + delimiter config per language, shippable as small follow-up PRs.
+
+**A2. Two-pass retrieval.** Current: keyword + vector → RRF → dedup. New: keyword + vector → anchor set → expand 1–2 hops on `code_edges_chunk` with structural-distance decay → blend into RRF.
+
+**Default OFF in all cases.** Opt-in only via `--walk-depth N` or `--near-symbol <name>`. Exact-symbol-match auto-on was unsafe (symbol names collide across files). Neighbor cap 50 per hop, depth cap 2. Dedup's per-page cap (currently 2) lifts to `min(10, walkDepth × 5)` when walking so structural neighbors from one file aren't clipped. Distance decay: `1/(1 + hop)` on expanded-neighbor RRF contributions.
+
+**A3. Parent-scope capture + nested-chunk emission.** Two parts:
+
+*Part 1:* Nested symbols get `parent_symbol_path text[]` on `content_chunks`. Embedded into chunk header: `[TypeScript] src/foo.ts:42-58 function formatResult (in BrainEngine.searchKeyword)`. Scope flows into embedding. Dual-use: drives A1's qualified symbol identity.
+
+*Part 2:* Extend `splitLargeNode` to emit nested functions/methods/inner-classes as their own chunks. The current chunker is top-level-node oriented — a `class Foo { method1() {} method2() {} }` emits one chunk. Parent_symbol_path on top-level nodes is empty (no parent above top level), so A3 contributes nothing without sub-top-level chunks. Part 2 makes the scope annotation load-bearing.
+
+**A4. Doc-comment → symbol binding.** Leading AST comment extracted to `doc_comment text`. Lands on **chunk-grain** search_vector (Layer 0b prerequisite) with FTS weight `'A'`. Natural-language queries rank docstring matches above body text and below title. `'A' > 'B' > 'C' > 'D'` per Postgres FTS weight convention.
+
+### Tier B — Coverage (honest Chonkie parity)
+
+**B1.** Lazy-load tree-sitter-language-pack (~165 languages). Replace 36 committed WASMs with a manifest + per-process parser cache. Cathedral I promised this and didn't deliver — Cathedral II does.
+
+**B2.** Magika auto-detect for extension-less files (Dockerfile, Makefile, `.envrc`). ~1MB bundled asset. Falls back to null → recursive chunker if classifier fails to load.
+
+### Tier C — Agent CLI surfaces
+
+- `query --lang <lang>` — filter by `content_chunks.language`
+- `query --symbol-kind function|class|method|type|interface|enum` — filter by `symbol_type`
+- `query --near-symbol <name> --depth 1..2` — two-pass retrieval anchored at a known symbol
+- `code-callers <symbol>` — uses A1 `calls` edges, reversed
+- `code-callees <symbol>` — uses A1 `calls` edges, forward
+
+All auto-JSON on non-TTY. `StructuredAgentError` envelopes on failure. `code-signature` deferred to v0.20.1 (needs per-language type captures).
+
+### Tier D — Bridge items (cathedral I promises)
+
+**D1.** `sync --all` cost preview. `estimateTokens` extracted from `chunkers/code.ts` to new `tokens.ts` module. Before per-source loop: walk sync-diff set, sum tokens, compute $ estimate. TTY + !json + !yes → interactive `[y/N]`. Non-TTY or `--json` or piped → emit `ConfirmationRequired` envelope, exit 2. `--yes` skips. `--dry-run` previews + exit 0. Preview on `--all` only, not single-source (DX review pain is first-time large-sync surprise bills).
+
+**D2.** Markdown fence extraction in `importFromContent`. After `parseMarkdown`, iterate marked lexer tokens for `{type:'code', lang, text}`. Map fence tag → language. Chunk each fence through `chunkCodeText`. Persist as `chunk_source='fenced_code'`. Cap 100 fences per markdown page (DOS defense). Per-fence try/catch — one bad fence doesn't break the page import.
+
+**D3.** `reconcile-links` batch command. Walks markdown pages, calls existing v0.19.0 `extractCodeRefs` per page, emits `addLink(md, code, ..., 'documents')` + reverse. `ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING` handles idempotency. Statement-timeout scoped via `sql.begin` + `SET LOCAL`. Progress reporter + final summary (edges added / existed / missing-target). Respects `auto_link` config.
+
+### Tier E — Eval, backfill, honesty
+
+**E1.** BrainBench code sub-categories: `call_graph_recall` (callers of X → expected set), `parent_scope_coverage` (nested-symbol queries return correct scope), `doc_comment_matching` (NL queries rank doc-comments above prose). Regression gates against A1/A3/A4 drift.
+
+**E2.** Backfill: schema migrates automatically (zero cost). **`CHUNKER_VERSION` bumps 3 → 4** — that constant is folded into each code page's `content_hash`, so every code page's hash changes on upgrade. Next `gbrain sync` won't short-circuit on "git HEAD unchanged"; it re-chunks every code file. New `gbrain reindex-code [--source <id>] [--dry-run] [--yes] [--force]` provides explicit full backfill with cost preview (reuses D1 infra) and `--force` bypasses content_hash skip entirely. Users control when to pay; silent no-op path closed.
+
+**E3.** Honest CHANGELOG. Retire "Chonkie superset" framing. Run BrainBench before/after for real numbers: 150+ languages loaded (after B1), MRR on NL→code queries, P@1 call-graph precision, P@k on symbol_name queries, sync cost preview on 5K-file repo. Back every claim with a runnable command.
+
+## Implementation ordering (14 layers, post-codex)
+
+1. **0a** — File-classification widening (sync.ts:35) + Magika reordered as fallback
+2. **0b** — Chunk-grain FTS (content_chunks.search_vector + trigger + searchKeyword chunk-level rewrite)
+3. **Foundation** — schema migration (split edge tables, qualified name columns on content_chunks) + engine method stubs + types
+4. **B1** — lazy-load grammar manifest + bun --compile guard
+5. **A1** — edge-extractor + 8 per-lang query files + qualified symbol identity + tests
+6. **A3** — parent-scope column + doc-comment column + splitLargeNode nested-chunk emission
+7. **A4** — doc-comment FTS weight A on chunk-grain search_vector
+8. **A2** — two-pass retrieval, default OFF, opt-in only; dedup cap lifts when walking

+## Size and cost
+
+- Diff: ~5500–6500 lines (~2.5x v0.19.0 post-codex expansion)
+- Tests: ~2000 lines (8 langs × qualified-name + edge-extraction fixtures + Layer 0b FTS migration tests)
+- Files: ~36 new, ~25 modified
+- CC time: ~20–25 hours focused (was 14–18 pre-codex; +6h for Layer 0a/0b + qualified identity across 8 langs + nested-chunk emission + CHUNKER_VERSION bump layer)
+- Human-equivalent: 3–5 weeks
+- First-sync cost bump for upgraded v0.19.0 users: every code page re-chunks on first sync after upgrade (CHUNKER_VERSION bump forces invalidation). Users run `gbrain reindex-code --dry-run` for cost preview, then `--yes` or accept gradual backfill over time as files change.
+- Daily autopilot cost post-backfill: unchanged (edges extracted at chunk time, no per-query LLM)
+
+## Risks and mitigations
+
+1. **Schema migration on live Postgres.** Test against production-shape DB before ship. v0.12.0 JSONB incident is the canary.
+2. **Per-language tree-sitter queries are fiddly.** Hand-verified edge-set fixtures per language. Ruby gets extra coverage for dynamic-dispatch false negatives.
+3. **Two-pass retrieval regression.** Default off for prose. BrainBench Cat 1 MUST show no regression before shipping.
+4. **Backfill shape (G1 resolved).** Three composable layers: schema-auto migrates columns empty (zero cost). Lazy on-touch catches 80% over time (zero cost). Explicit `reindex-code` with cost preview for users wanting immediate full benefit. No surprise bills.
+5. **Magika bundle (G2 resolved).** +1MB asset, `bun --compile` guard extension. If bundling surfaces bugs late in implementation, B2 is the only tier that can fall back to v0.20.1 without blocking the cathedral — it's self-contained at Layer 8.
+6. **High-fan-out symbols.** `console.log`-style symbols have 100K callers. Neighbor cap 50, depth cap 2. Chaos test fixture required.
+
+## Review gates
+
+- CEO review (cathedral II) — CLEARED 2026-04-24
+- Outside voice (codex) — run during cathedral II CEO review
+- `/plan-devex-review` — up next (per user request, 5 new CLI surfaces + reindex-code need DX polish review before eng)
+- `/plan-eng-review` — required before implementation begins
+- `/review` + `/codex review` — required before `/ship`
+
+## What's deferred to later cathedrals
+
+- **C6** `code-signature "(A, B) => C"` — per-language type captures. v0.20.1.
+- **Call-graph langs beyond 8 shipped** — PHP, Swift, Kotlin, Scala, C#, C++, Elixir, etc. One small PR per language.
+- **LSP integration** for live precision. v0.22+ cathedral.
+- **Code-tour generator** (cathedral I T1).
+- **Private-code redaction pre-embed** (cathedral I T3).
+- **`gbrain doctor --chunker-debug`** AST dump.

+### Using gbrain with GStack
+
+If your engineering agent runs on [GStack](https://github.com/garrytan/gstack), point it at gbrain for code lookup instead of grep+read. Cathedral II (v0.21.0) ships call-graph edges and two-pass retrieval — `/investigate`, `/review`, `/plan-eng-review`, and `/office-hours` all benefit when the agent walks the symbol graph instead of scanning files line by line.
+
+The five magical-moment commands:
+
+```bash
+gbrain code-callers searchKeyword           # who calls this symbol?
+gbrain code-callees searchKeyword           # what does this symbol call?
+gbrain code-def BrainEngine                 # where is X defined?
+gbrain code-refs BrainEngine                # all reference sites
+gbrain query "how does N+1 handling work" --near-symbol BrainEngine.searchKeyword --walk-depth 2
+```
+
+All five auto-emit JSON on non-TTY (gh-CLI convention) so a GStack subagent shelling out via bash gets a clean parseable response. Run `gbrain sources add <repo> --strategy code` to index a repo, then your agent's brain-first lookup covers code, not just markdown. ([Cathedral II release notes](CHANGELOG.md#0210---2026-04-25))

 ## The 29 Skills
 
 GBrain ships 29 skills organized by `skills/RESOLVER.md` (or your OpenClaw's `AGENTS.md` — both filenames are supported as of v0.19). The resolver tells your agent which skill to read for any task.

+# v0.19.0 — Code Indexing
+
+This release makes code a first-class citizen in the brain. Tree-sitter parses 29 languages into semantic chunks. `gbrain code-def` and `gbrain code-refs` let agents find symbol definitions and references without grep. Incremental chunking drops daily autopilot embedding cost by ~95%. The chunker is a strict superset of Chonkie's CodeChunker plus a structured header Chonkie lacks.
+
+## Schema migrations applied automatically
+
+- **v25 — `pages.page_kind`** — distinguishes markdown vs code pages at the DB level. Existing rows backfill to `'markdown'`. Postgres uses `ADD CONSTRAINT ... NOT VALID` + `VALIDATE CONSTRAINT` so large tables don't block.
+- **v26 — `content_chunks` code metadata** — adds `language`, `symbol_name`, `symbol_type`, `start_line`, `end_line`. All nullable. Partial indexes on `symbol_name` and `language` for fast symbol lookup.
+
+These run as part of `gbrain upgrade` → `gbrain apply-migrations`. No manual DDL needed.
+
+## What the agent should do after upgrading
+
+1. **Confirm migrations landed:**
+   ```bash
+   gbrain doctor
+   ```
+   Look for `schema_version: 26`. If lower, run `gbrain apply-migrations --yes`.
+
+2. **Register a code source** if the user wants their code indexed:
+   ```bash
+   gbrain sources add <id> --path <path-to-repo>
+   ```
+   Pick a short `<id>` (e.g. `wiki`, `gbrain`, `yc-media`). Shorter is better — it's used in citation keys.
+
+3. **Sync the code source:**
+   ```bash
+   gbrain sync --source <id>
+   ```
+   First sync may run tens of minutes depending on repo size. Each TypeScript function becomes a chunk with a structured header like `[TypeScript] src/core/sync.ts:380-415 function performFullSync`.
+
+4. **Verify code-def and code-refs work:**
+   ```bash
+   gbrain code-def BrainEngine       # prints the file + line of the definition
+   gbrain code-refs BrainEngine --json  # JSON array of every usage site
+   ```
+   If both return non-empty arrays, code indexing is working end-to-end.
+
+5. **Observe incremental chunking.** Edit one function in a 20-function file, re-run `sync --source <id>`. Embedding cost should be ~5% of the first sync because unchanged chunks reuse their existing embeddings.
+
+## Migration from Wintermute's `repos` (if you used it)
+
+v0.19.0 deletes `~/.gbrain/config.json`'s `repos` array in favor of the `sources` table. The CLI surface is preserved as a deprecated alias: `gbrain repos add` still works, but routes into `runSources` with a one-line deprecation notice on stderr. Existing scripts keep working; prefer `gbrain sources` going forward.
+
+If you had repos configured in `~/.gbrain/config.json`, re-register them:
+```bash
+gbrain sources add <name> --path <path>
+```
+Per-repo sync bookmarks live in the `sources` table now (not config.json).
+
+## Flag in `pending-host-work.jsonl`
+
+Per the v0.11.0 convention, the migration orchestrator writes an entry to `~/.gbrain/migrations/pending-host-work.jsonl` flagging the new CLI surfaces so headless agents can walk the TODOs:
+
+```json
+{"version": "0.19.0", "action": "register_code_source", "status": "pending"}
+```
+
+Agents that handle pending-host-work should offer the user a `gbrain sources add ...` prompt.
+
+## When NOT to run the migration
+
+Never. v0.19.0 is fully backward-compatible. Existing markdown-only brains see zero behavior change until the user adds a code source.

+# v0.21.0 — Code Cathedral II
+
+This release is the biggest code-search upgrade in gbrain history. Chunk-grain FTS with doc_comment Weight A ranks natural-language queries against docstrings above prose. CHUNKER_VERSION 3 → 4 folds into content_hash so every existing code page re-chunks. File classifier widened from 9 to 35 extensions. Markdown fence extraction, `sync --all` cost preview, and `reconcile-links` batch command ship alongside the chunker upgrade.
+
+## Schema migrations applied automatically
+
+- **v27 — cathedral_ii_foundation** — adds `code_edges_chunk`, `code_edges_symbol`, `sources.chunker_version`, and new `content_chunks` columns (`parent_symbol_path`, `doc_comment`, `symbol_name_qualified`, `search_vector`). Includes the chunk-grain FTS trigger that builds from `setweight(to_tsvector('english', doc_comment), 'A') || setweight(to_tsvector('english', chunk_text), 'B') || setweight(to_tsvector('english', symbol_name_qualified), 'A')`.
+- **v28 — cathedral_ii_chunk_fts_backfill** — populates `search_vector` on every existing chunk so day-1 queries already rank correctly.
+
+These run as part of `gbrain upgrade` → `gbrain apply-migrations`. No manual DDL needed.
+
+## What the agent should do after upgrading
+
+1. **Confirm migrations landed:**
+   ```bash
+   gbrain doctor
+   ```
+   Look for `schema_version: 28`. If lower, run `gbrain apply-migrations --yes`.
+
+2. **Pick a backfill path.** The `CHUNKER_VERSION` bump + `sources.chunker_version` gate means existing code pages must re-chunk for the new shape to take effect. Two paths:
+
+   **Automatic (recommended):** next `gbrain sync --source <id>` detects the version mismatch and forces a full re-walk regardless of git HEAD equality. No cost preview, no user interaction. The Layer 12 SP-1 fix from codex's second-pass review.
+
+   **Immediate:** preview cost, then reindex every code page now.
+   ```bash
+   gbrain reindex-code --dry-run       # preview token count + $USD cost
+   gbrain reindex-code --yes           # reindex all code pages
+   gbrain reindex-code --source <id> --yes  # scope to one source
+   ```
+   On non-TTY (automation / cron) `reindex-code` without `--yes` emits a `ConfirmationRequired` envelope and exits 2 — same shape as `sync --all`. The envelope matches v0.19.0's `StructuredAgentError`.
+
+3. **Verify chunk-grain FTS works.** A query that mentions a concept in a docstring (not just the function body) should rank higher than a page that mentions it only in prose:
+   ```bash
+   gbrain query "whatever your docstring says"
+   ```
+   Expected: top hit is the chunk whose `doc_comment` matches.
+
+4. **(Optional) Reconcile doc↔impl links.** v0.19.0 Layer 6 forward-extracted code refs from markdown pages when they imported, but edges dropped if the code page hadn't imported yet. v0.21.0's `reconcile-links` batch-scans every markdown page and idempotently reinserts missing edges:
+   ```bash
+   gbrain reconcile-links              # full run
+   gbrain reconcile-links --dry-run    # preview only
+   gbrain reconcile-links --json       # machine output
+   ```
+   Respects `auto_link=false` config (prints warn + exits 0 when disabled).
+
+## Widened file classifier — more languages sync now
+
+Previous classifier recognized 9 extensions as code. v0.21.0 widens to 35 (Rust, Ruby, Java, C#, C/C++, Swift, Kotlin, Scala, PHP, Elixir, Elm, OCaml, Dart, Zig, Solidity, Lua, shell, etc.). If your repo contains source files in languages beyond TS/JS/Py/Go, they'll flow through the code chunker on next sync. No action needed — `detectCodeLanguage` handles dispatch.
+
+## Flag in `pending-host-work.jsonl`
+
+The migration orchestrator emits a backfill-prompt phase that prints the two backfill choices directly. No `pending-host-work.jsonl` entry is written — the choice is user-driven and ephemeral (either reindex now or wait for next sync).
+
+## When NOT to run the migration
+
+Never skip it. v0.21.0 is fully backward-compatible at the API level (page-grain FTS shape preserved externally; chunk-grain is internal only). Skipping the migration means agents miss doc_comment Weight A ranking and the chunker_version gate never fires — existing code pages silently stay on CHUNKER_VERSION 3 forever until you sync with `--full`.

+/**
+ * v0.21.0 migration orchestrator — Code Cathedral II.
+ *
+ * Cathedral II ships 14 bisectable layers. The user-visible migration
+ * surface is:
+ *   - Schema: v27 foundation (code_edges_chunk + code_edges_symbol + new
+ *     content_chunks columns + sources.chunker_version gate + chunk-grain
+ *     search_vector) and v28 (backfill existing chunks' search_vector).
+ *     Both run through the MIGRATIONS chain in src/core/migrate.ts.
+ *   - Data backfill: CHUNKER_VERSION bumped 3→4. Layer 12's
+ *     sources.chunker_version gate forces a full re-walk next sync on any
+ *     source whose tree hasn't drifted, so normal usage rolls the new
+ *     chunker shape over existing brains automatically. Users who want
+ *     the full reindex NOW run `gbrain reindex-code --yes`.
+ *
+ * Phases:
+ *   A. Schema — `gbrain init --migrate-only` applies v27 + v28.
+ *   B. Backfill-prompt — emit a pending-host-work notice telling the user
+ *      to choose between (1) `gbrain reindex-code --yes` for immediate full
+ *      backfill, or (2) accepting gradual sync-driven re-chunk via the
+ *      chunker_version gate. No DB side-effects; the orchestrator doesn't
+ *      decide for the user.
+ *   C. Verify — assert v27 column set exists + CHUNKER_VERSION=4.
+ *
+ * All phases are idempotent and safe to re-run.

+ * v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 8 D3 — reconcile-links batch command.

+ * Closes the v0.19.0 Layer 6 doc↔impl order-dependency bug. When a
+ * markdown guide cites `src/core/sync.ts:42` but the code source
+ * hasn't been synced yet, the forward-scan at import time inserts
+ * nothing because `addLink`'s inner SELECT drops edges to missing
+ * pages. The guide and the code eventually both exist, but the edge
+ * never materialized.
+ *
+ * D3 fixes this batch-style: walk every markdown page, re-run
+ * `extractCodeRefs`, and call `addLink(md, code, ..., 'documents')` +
+ * reverse for each hit. ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING on the `links` table
+ * makes the operation idempotent — edges that already exist stay,
+ * new edges land.
+ *
+ * Why batch over per-import-reverse-scan: codex 2-phase review
+ * flagged the per-import approach as O(N) ILIKE/JOIN queries per
+ * code file imported. On a 47K-page brain first-syncing 5K code
+ * files, that's 5K ILIKE scans. A user-triggered batch pass on an
+ * already-synced brain is one walk, fully indexed via the existing
+ * slug lookup in addLink.

+ * v0.21.0 Cathedral II Layer 13 (E2) — `gbrain reindex-code`.
+ *
+ * Explicit backfill for v0.19.0 → v0.21.0 brains. Layer 12's
+ * `sources.chunker_version` gate forces a re-walk next sync on any source
+ * whose working tree hasn't drifted, but users who want the benefits NOW
+ * (before the next sync) get this: walk every page where type='code', read
+ * compiled_truth + frontmatter.file, re-import via importCodeFile. Pages
+ * flow through the same code path as normal sync (chunker + embeddings +
+ * content_hash folding), so a reindex is bit-identical to a fresh sync.
+ *
+ * Flags:
+ *   --source <id>   Scope to one sources row. Omit = all code pages.
+ *   --dry-run       Preview cost + page count, exit 0.
+ *   --yes           Skip interactive [y/N]. Required for non-TTY + non-JSON.
+ *   --json          Machine-readable ConfirmationRequired / result envelope.
+ *   --force         Bypass importCodeFile's content_hash early-return. Use
+ *                   this for paranoid full reindex when content_hash equals
+ *                   but you still want a re-chunk + re-embed pass.
+ *
+ * Batched in chunks of 100 pages to avoid OOM on 47K-page brains (codex
+ * review Finding 4.4). Idempotent: re-running on already-reindexed pages
+ * is a no-op unless --force is passed.

+ * v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 4 (B1) — LanguageEntry manifest.
+ *
+ * Before Cathedral II, languages were hardcoded in two places: GRAMMAR_PATHS
+ * (Bun asset imports) and DISPLAY_LANG (display names). The plan's B1 tier
+ * wants one manifest that supports (a) embedded grammars that ship with
+ * `bun --compile` today, (b) lazy-loaded grammars resolved from
+ * node_modules/tree-sitter-wasms at runtime for source-installs, and (c)
+ * user-registered grammars so downstream consumers can extend coverage
+ * without forking the chunker.
+ *
+ * v0.20.0 ships the 29 embedded grammars we already had. The lazy-loader
+ * + registerLanguage hook are in place as forward-compat — a v0.20.x
+ * follow-up (or user) can register additional grammars without touching
+ * the chunker core.
+ *
+ * Structure:
+ *   - `embeddedPath` → Bun asset path, takes priority when present.
+ *   - `lazyLoader` → async function returning path OR Uint8Array. Used
+ *     when embeddedPath is absent. Runs at most once per process
+ *     (result cached alongside the parsed Language via `languageCache`).
+ *   - `displayName` → human-readable name used in embedded chunk headers
+ *     so both the agent and a human reader see "TypeScript", not
+ *     "typescript", in the structured header line.

+ *     on Rust → b). The receiver-type resolution (obj → ClassName) is
+ *     explicitly deferred — we store the bare callee token here and rely
+ *     on Layer 7 two-pass retrieval + the getCallersOf short-name match
+ *     to surface the anchor. This is "best effort precision 80, recall 99":
+ *     if you search for "searchKeyword" you get every call site, even the
+ *     ones whose receiver we couldn't pin to a class yet.
+ *
+ * Every emitted edge lands in code_edges_symbol (unresolved — to_chunk_id
+ * null) because within-file resolution needs a second pass that matches
+ * callee tokens against chunks' symbol_name_qualified. That resolution is
+ * a future optimization. Layer 5 gets the edges captured at all — that's
+ * the 10x leap over v0.19.0's grep-class retrieval.
+ *

+ * v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 4 (B1) — Language manifest tests.
+ *
+ * Cathedral I shipped 29 grammars as hardcoded Bun asset imports + a
+ * parallel DISPLAY_LANG record. Cathedral II Layer 4 consolidates these
+ * into a single LANGUAGE_MANIFEST keyed on SupportedCodeLanguage with
+ * a LanguageEntry shape ({ displayName, embeddedPath?, lazyLoader? }).
+ *
+ * Why it matters:
+ *   - Adding a new language is now one entry, not two.
+ *   - Lazy-loadable languages (registered at runtime via registerLanguage)
+ *     follow the same API shape as embedded ones — loadLanguage doesn't
+ *     branch on load source.
+ *   - Layer 9 (B2 Magika) will use registerLanguage to wire extensionless
+ *     grammars; v0.20.x+ can use it to lazy-load the rest of
+ *     tree-sitter-wasms (~136 more langs) without touching chunker core.

+ * The v0.19.0 chunker emits one chunk per top-level AST node, so a class
+ * with three methods ships as ONE chunk. A3 extends the chunker to emit
+ * each method as its own chunk carrying `parentSymbolPath: ['ClassName']`,
+ * and slims the class-level parent chunk to its declaration + member list.
+ * The chunk header gets a `(in ClassName)` suffix so the embedding
+ * captures scope context.
+ *
+ * Validates: (1) the class emits as N+1 chunks (parent + N methods),
+ * (2) each method chunk has the parent path populated, (3) the header
+ * line reflects scope, (4) round-trips through upsertChunks intact.

+/**
+ * v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 2 (1a) — file-classifier widening.
+ *
+ * Codex F1 caught that v0.19.0's sync.ts classified only 9 extensions as
+ * code, so B1's "165 languages" claim was aspirational — anything beyond
+ * TS/JS/Python/Ruby/Go dropped on the sync floor. Layer 2 widens the
+ * classifier so every extension the chunker knows about reaches the
+ * chunker during normal sync.
+ *
+ * Layer 2 also ships resolveSlugForPath — a central dispatcher that picks
+ * between slugifyCodePath and pathToSlug based on isCodeFilePath. Sync
+ * delete/rename paths now go through this so widening the classifier
+ * doesn't break deletes (SP-5).
+ *
+ * Layer 2 additionally adds a setLanguageFallback hook on
+ * chunkers/code.ts that Layer 9 (B2 Magika) will wire in. This test
+ * covers the hook contract.
