52f9581966 v0.22.11 feat: storage tiering — db_tracked vs db_only directories (#494)
* feat: storage tiering — git-tracked vs supabase-only directories

Brain repos scaling to 200K+ files. Bulk data (tweets, articles, transcripts)
bloats git repos and slows operations. New storage config in gbrain.yml lets
users declare git-tracked and supabase-only directories.

Changes:
- New config: storage.git_tracked and storage.supabase_only in gbrain.yml
- gbrain sync auto-manages .gitignore for supabase-only paths
- gbrain export --restore-only restores missing supabase-only files from DB
- New gbrain storage status command shows tier breakdown
- Config validation warns on conflicts
- 8 tests passing, full docs at docs/storage-tiering.md

Backward compatible — systems without gbrain.yml work unchanged.

* feat: add getDefaultSourcePath() typed accessor (step 1/15)

Single source of truth for "what brain repo are we operating against?"
Replaces ad-hoc raw SQL in storage.ts:38 (Issue #3 of eng review). Used by
both gbrain storage status and gbrain export --restore-only.

Returns null on miss, throws on DB error. Composes with the existing
resolveSourceId chain so it honors --source flag / GBRAIN_SOURCE env /
.gbrain-source dotfile / longest-prefix CWD match / brain-level default.

4 new test cases covering happy path, missing local_path, DB error
propagation, and CWD-prefix resolution priority.

* fix: replace gray-matter with dedicated YAML parser (step 2/15)

The original storage-config.ts called gray-matter on a delimiter-less YAML
file. Gray-matter only parses YAML inside `---` frontmatter blocks; without
delimiters, it returns `{data: {}}`. Result: loadStorageConfig() always
returned null, the entire feature was a silent no-op for every user.

Original eng review's P0 confidence-9 finding (Issue #1).

Replaces gray-matter with a small dedicated parser for the gbrain.yml shape
(top-level `storage:` section, two array-valued nested keys). Yaml-lite was
considered first, but its flat key:value design doesn't handle nested
arrays. The dedicated parser is ~50 lines and trades expressiveness for
zero-dep, predictable parsing of a file format we control.

Adds the Issue #1B sanity warning (locked B): when gbrain.yml exists but
has no storage section (or empty arrays), warn once-per-process so the
user sees their config didn't take. The single test that would have caught
the original P0 — write a real gbrain.yml, call loadStorageConfig, assert
non-null — now exists.

Also tightens loadStorageConfig per D36: distinguishes "absent" (silent
null) from "unreadable" (throws). The previous code silently swallowed
read errors, hiding broken installs.

8 new test cases: real-disk happy path, comments + blank lines, quoted
values, missing storage section warning, empty section warning,
once-per-process warning suppression, unreadable file behavior, and the
existing helper tests (validation, tier matching, edge cases) all still
pass.

* refactor: rename storage keys to db_tracked/db_only (step 3/15)

The vendor-specific names "supabase_only" and "git_tracked" hardcoded a
backend (Supabase) into the config schema. gbrain ships two engines —
PGLite and Postgres-via-Supabase. The canonical distinction is "lives in
the brain DB only" vs "lives in the brain DB and on disk under git." Both
work on either engine.

Renamed throughout (Issue #4 of eng review):
  git_tracked    → db_tracked
  supabase_only  → db_only
  isGitTracked() → isDbTracked()
  isSupabaseOnly() → isDbOnly()
  StorageTier 'git_tracked'/'supabase_only' → 'db_tracked'/'db_only'

Backward compatibility (D3 lock):
  loadStorageConfig accepts both shapes. Loader resolution order per the
  eng-review pass-2 finding: parse YAML → if canonical keys present use
  them, else if deprecated keys present map to canonical AND emit
  once-per-process deprecation warning → THEN run validation.
  Validation always sees the canonical shape so error messages reference
  db_tracked/db_only regardless of which keys the user wrote.

  The deprecation warning suggests `gbrain doctor --fix` for an automated
  rename (D72 — fix path lands in step 7).

  When both shapes coexist in one file, canonical wins and a stronger
  warning fires ("deprecated keys ignored — remove them").

Aliases isGitTracked/isSupabaseOnly kept for now to avoid churning the
sync.ts / export.ts / storage.ts call sites in this commit; they'll be
removed in a follow-up step. Storage.ts's tier-bucket initializers and
output strings updated. ASCII output replaces unicode box-drawing per D10.

gbrain.yml example file updated to canonical keys with explanatory
comments.

2 new test cases: deprecated-key fallback (asserts both shapes load
correctly with warning), canonical-wins-over-deprecated (asserts the
"both shapes coexist" path).

* feat: add slugPrefix to PageFilters with engine-side filter (step 4/15)

Issue #13 of the eng review: storage.ts and export.ts loaded every page
in the brain (limit: 1_000_000) to check tier membership. On the 200K-page
brains this feature targets, that's the wall-clock and memory landmine
the feature exists to fix.

Adds an optional `slugPrefix` field to PageFilters. Both engines implement
it as `WHERE slug LIKE prefix || '%' ESCAPE '\'`, with literal escaping of
LIKE metacharacters (%, _, \) so user-supplied prefixes like `media/x/`
are treated as exact string prefixes.

Performance: the (source_id, slug) UNIQUE constraint on the pages table
gives both engines a btree index that supports LIKE-prefix range scans.
An EXPLAIN on Postgres confirms the index range scan rather than a seq
scan. PGLite has the same index shape via pglite-schema.ts.

Consumers updated:
  - export.ts: --slug-prefix flag now goes engine-side (no in-memory
    .filter(...)). The --restore-only path queries each db_only directory
    with slugPrefix in a loop instead of one full-table scan, with seen-set
    deduplication and disk-existence check inline.
  - storage.ts: keeps the full-scan path because storage-status needs the
    "unspecified" bucket count, which can't be computed without enumerating
    every page. Comment notes that step 5 (single-walk filesystem scan)
    will reduce per-page disk syscall cost.

2 new test cases on PGLiteEngine: slugPrefix happy path (3 tier dirs,
asserts only matching slugs return) and metacharacter escape regression
(asserts safe/ doesn't match unrelated slugs).

* perf: single-walk filesystem scan via walkBrainRepo() (step 5/15)

Issue #14 of the eng review: storage.ts called existsSync + statSync
per-page in a synchronous loop. On a 200K-page brain that's 400K syscalls
serialized. Wall-clock landmine.

Adds src/core/disk-walk.ts with walkBrainRepo(repoPath) — one recursive
readdirSync walk, builds a Map<slug, {size, mtimeMs}>. Storage.ts looks
up each DB page in the map (O(1)) instead of stat-checking on demand.
Slug derivation matches the pages-table convention: people/alice.md on
disk becomes people/alice as the map key.

Skipped during walk:
  - dot-directories (.git, .gbrain, .vscode, etc) — not part of the brain
    namespace
  - node_modules — guards against accidentally walking into imported repos
  - non-.md files (sidecar JSON, binaries) — tracked by the brain through
    the files table, not by slug

Reusable: future commands (gbrain doctor's storage_tiering check, the
optional autopilot tier-fix path) get the same walk for free.

9 new test cases: empty dir, nonexistent dir, top-level files, nested
dirs, dot-dir skipping, node_modules skipping, non-.md filtering, size
capture, mtimeMs capture.

* fix: path-segment matching for tier directories (step 6/15)

Issue #5 + D6 of the eng review: tier matching used slug.startsWith(dir),
which falsely matches 'media/xerox/foo' against 'media/x' if a user wrote
the directory without a trailing slash.

The new matcher requires the configured directory to end with `/` and
treats it as a canonical path-segment ancestor:

  media/x/   matches  media/x/tweet-1       ✓
  media/x/   doesn't  media/xerox/foo       ✗
  media/x    refused  media/x/tweet-1       (matcher requires trailing /)

Non-canonical input (no trailing slash) is refused outright. Step 7's
auto-normalizing validator converts user-written 'media/x' → 'media/x/'
on load, so the matcher never sees non-canonical input from real configs.
The behavior tested here is the strict matcher's contract.

Regression test pins the media/xerox collision case explicitly.

* feat: auto-normalize trailing-slash, throw on tier overlap (step 7/15)

D7+D8 of the eng review: validation was warnings-only. Users miss warnings.
Now:

  - Cosmetic: missing trailing slash auto-corrected, one-time info note
    showing what changed ("normalized 2 storage paths: 'people' →
    'people/', 'media/x' → 'media/x/'"). Once-per-process to keep noise low.

  - Semantic: same directory in both tiers throws StorageConfigError.
    Ambiguous routing — does media/ win as db_tracked or db_only? — is a
    real bug the user must fix. Caller propagates to the CLI for a clean
    exit-1 with actionable message.

loadStorageConfig now applies normalize+validate after merging deprecated
keys, so the path-segment matcher (step 6) only ever sees canonical
trailing-slash directories.

The pure validateStorageConfig kept for callers who want the warnings list
without the auto-fix side effects (gbrain doctor's reporting path).

2 new test cases: auto-normalize round-trip with warning text assertion,
overlap throws StorageConfigError.

* fix: wire manageGitignore into runSync, only on success (step 8/15)

Issue #2 of the eng review: manageGitignore was defined and never
invoked. Docs claimed "auto-managed by gbrain" — false. Users hit a
.gitignore that never updated and committed db_only directories anyway.

Wire-up: runSync now calls manageGitignore after each successful
performSync return, in both watch and one-shot modes.

Eng review pass-2 finding #1: skip on dry_run AND blocked_by_failures
status. A sync that aborted partway has stale state; mutating .gitignore
based on a partially-loaded config invites drift. Failure-skip test
added (uses .gitignore-as-a-directory to simulate write failure;
asserts warning fired and disk wasn't corrupted).

Hardened manageGitignore itself with three additional behaviors:

  - GBRAIN_NO_GITIGNORE=1 escape hatch (D23) for shared-repo setups
    where a maintainer wants gbrain to leave .gitignore alone.

  - Submodule detection (D49). When repoPath/.git is a regular file
    (gitdir: ... pointer), the repo is a git submodule. Submodule
    .gitignore changes don't survive parent submodule updates, so we
    skip with an actionable warning ("add db_only directories to your
    parent repo's .gitignore manually").

  - Graceful failure (D9). Read errors, write errors, and
    StorageConfigError (overlap from step 7) all log a warning and
    return — sync's primary job (moving data) shouldn't die because of
    a side-effect on .gitignore.

manageGitignore is now exported (previously private) so the
storage-sync test file can hit it directly without spinning up sync.

9 new test cases: no-op without gbrain.yml, no-op with empty db_only,
happy-path append, idempotency (run twice, single entry), preservation
of user-written rules, GBRAIN_NO_GITIGNORE skip, submodule skip,
.git-directory normal path, write-failure graceful warning.

* fix: D5 resolution chain for --restore-only and storage status (step 9/15)

D5 of the eng review: gbrain export --restore-only without --repo
silently fell through to the regular export path, dumping every page in
the database to the wrong directory. Hard regression risk.

Now exits 1 with an actionable message when --restore-only has no
--repo AND no configured default source. Resolution order:
  1. Explicit --repo flag
  2. Typed sources.getDefault() (reuses step 1's accessor)
  3. Hard error — never fall through to cwd

storage.ts:38 also bypassed BrainEngine with raw SQL and a bare
try/catch (Issue #3 + Issue #9). Replaced with the same typed
getDefaultSourcePath() — single source of truth, errors propagate
cleanly to the user, no silent cwd fallback.

Regular export (no --restore-only) keeps its current behavior per D26:
exports include everything, --repo is optional.

4 new test cases on PGLite in-memory:
  - hard-errors with no --repo + no default
  - explicit --repo wins
  - falls back to sources default local_path
  - non-restore export does not require --repo

* refactor: split storage.ts into pure data + JSON + human formatters (step 10/15)

Issue #10 of the eng review: getStorageStatus and runStorageStatus mixed
data gathering, JSON serialization, and human-readable output in one
function. Hard to test, hard to reuse, mismatched the orphans.ts pattern
that CLAUDE.md cites as the precedent.

Now three pure functions + a thin dispatcher:

  getStorageStatus(engine, repoPath) — async, returns StorageStatusResult.
    Side effects: engine.listPages + one walkBrainRepo (Issue #14).
    Exported so MCP exposure (D14) and gbrain doctor (D13) can consume the
    same data without re-running the loop.

  formatStorageStatusJson(result) — pure, returns indented JSON. Stable
    contract on the StorageStatusResult shape, suitable for orchestrators.

  formatStorageStatusHuman(result) — pure, returns ASCII text (D10 — no
    unicode box-drawing). Composable into other commands later.

  runStorageStatus(engine, args) — thin dispatcher: parses --repo /
    --json, calls getStorageStatus, picks a formatter, prints.

8 new test cases on the formatters: JSON parse round-trip, null-config
fallback, missing-files capped at 10 with rollup, ASCII-only assertion
(D10 regression guard), warnings inline, configuration listing, disk-
usage block omitted when zero bytes.

The StorageStatusResult interface is now exported as a public type, so
gbrain doctor's storage_tiering check can build its own findings from
the same shape.

* types: distinct PageCountsByTier and DiskUsageByTier (step 11/15)

Issue #11 of the eng review: pagesByTier (page counts) and
diskUsageByTier (byte totals) shared the same structural type
(Record<StorageTier, number>). Both are tier-keyed numeric maps but
carry semantically different units. A future bug that swaps them at a
call site (e.g., displaying disk bytes where the count belongs) wouldn't
trip the compiler.

Replaced with distinct nominal types via a brand field. Structurally
identical at runtime (no overhead) but compile-time disjoint —
TypeScript catches accidental cross-assignment.

  PageCountsByTier   { db_tracked, db_only, unspecified } : numbers (count)
  DiskUsageByTier    { db_tracked, db_only, unspecified } : numbers (bytes)

Both initialized in getStorageStatus, both threaded into
StorageStatusResult, both consumed by formatStorageStatusHuman /
formatStorageStatusJson without further changes.

* feat: PGLite soft-warn + full lifecycle test (step 12/15)

D4: storage tiering on PGLite is a partial feature. The "DB" the pages
live in IS the local file gbrain uses for everything else, so "db_only"
has no real offload effect. The .gitignore management still helps
(keeps bulk content out of git history), so we warn and proceed —
not refuse.

Two warning sites (once-per-process each via module-local flags):
  - storage status: warns at runStorageStatus entry
  - sync: warns inside manageGitignore when engineKind='pglite' and
    config has db_only entries

Both phrased actionably ("To get full tiering, migrate to Postgres
with `gbrain migrate --to supabase`").

manageGitignore signature now takes an optional `engineKind` param.
runSync passes engine.kind. Stand-alone callers (tests, future
gbrain doctor --fix path) can omit it.

New test: test/storage-pglite.test.ts — D8 + D4 lifecycle. 6 cases:
engine.kind assertion, getStorageStatus loading gbrain.yml + reporting
tier counts, manageGitignore PGLite-warn (once per process), Postgres
no-warn, slugPrefix on PGLite, end-to-end (config + putPage + status
+ gitignore).

* chore: add trailing-newline CI guard (step 14/15)

Issue #7 of the eng review: all four new files in the original
storage-tiering branch lacked POSIX trailing newlines. Linters complain,
git diffs phantom-flag every future edit. We've been adding newlines as
each file landed; this commit catches the regression class.

scripts/check-trailing-newline.sh:
  - sibling to check-jsonb-pattern.sh / check-progress-to-stdout.sh per
    CLAUDE.md's CI guard pattern
  - portable to bash 3.2 (macOS default; no mapfile, no associative arrays)
  - covers src/**, test/**, gbrain.yml, top-level *.md
  - reports each missing file by path and exits 1

Wired into `bun run test` between progress-to-stdout and typecheck.

Also fixed docs/storage-tiering.md (pre-existing missing newline from
the original branch — caught by the new guard on first run).

* docs: v0.23.0 — VERSION, CHANGELOG, README, CLAUDE.md, storage-tiering.md (step 15/15)

VERSION → 0.23.0 (minor bump for new feature surface).

CHANGELOG entry in Garry voice with the canonical format:
  - Two-line bold headline ("Storage tiering, finally working...")
  - Lead paragraph naming what was broken before and what users get now
  - "Numbers that matter" before/after table for the 6 things that
    actually changed
  - "What this means for your brain" closer
  - "To take advantage of v0.23.0" self-repair block (per CLAUDE.md
    convention) — 6 numbered steps users can follow
  - Itemized changes split into critical fixes / new+renamed surface /
    architecture cleanup / tests + CI guards

CLAUDE.md "Key files" gains four new entries: storage-config.ts,
disk-walk.ts, the v0.23.0 storage.ts shape, and gbrain.yml itself.

README.md gains a new "Storage tiering" section between Skillify and
Getting Data In with the canonical example + commands + link to the
full guide.

docs/storage-tiering.md rewritten end-to-end with canonical key names
(db_tracked / db_only), v0.23.0 hardening details (idempotency,
submodule detection, GBRAIN_NO_GITIGNORE, dry-run gating), the
resolution chain for --restore-only, the auto-normalize +
throw-on-overlap validator, and the PGLite engine note.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: e2e Postgres lifecycle for storage tiering (step 16/16)

Per the v0.23.0 plan: full lifecycle E2E against real Postgres.

  - engine.kind === 'postgres' assertion
  - Full lifecycle: write 4 pages (1 db_tracked, 2 db_only, 1 unspecified)
    → getStorageStatus reports correct tier counts → human formatter
    renders → manageGitignore writes managed block → idempotency check
    → getDefaultSourcePath() resolves the configured local_path.
  - Container restart simulation: 2 db_only pages in DB, files missing
    on disk → status.missingFiles.length === 2 → slugPrefix engine
    filter on Postgres returns exactly the tier slugs.
  - slugPrefix index-based range scan regression: 50 media/x/* + 50
    people/p-* pages → slugPrefix='media/x/' returns exactly 50.
  - getDefaultSourcePath returns null when default source has no
    local_path (the hard-error path that replaces the original silent
    cwd fallback).
  - manageGitignore on Postgres engine does NOT emit the PGLite
    soft-warn (cross-engine assertion).

Skips gracefully when DATABASE_URL is unset, per CLAUDE.md E2E pattern.
Run via: DATABASE_URL=... bun test test/e2e/storage-tiering.test.ts

* chore: rebump version 0.23.0 → 0.22.9

Reverts the minor bump back to a patch-style version on the v0.22 line.
Storage tiering ships within the v0.22.x train alongside the recent
fix waves. Updates VERSION, package.json, CHANGELOG header + body refs,
CLAUDE.md Key files annotations, README.md section heading, and the
docs/storage-tiering.md backward-compat note.

* chore: bump version 0.22.9 → 0.22.11

Sibling workspaces claimed v0.22.10 in the queue. This branch advances
to v0.22.11 to keep the version monotonic on master.

Updates VERSION, package.json, CHANGELOG header + body refs, CLAUDE.md
Key files annotations, README.md section heading, and the
docs/storage-tiering.md backward-compat note.

* fix: address Codex pre-landing review findings (4 fixes)

Codex found 4 real issues during pre-landing review of v0.22.11 diff:

[P0] export --restore-only fell through to full export when
storageConfig was null (no gbrain.yml present). On older or
misconfigured brains, the recovery command would silently dump the
entire database. src/commands/export.ts now refuses with an actionable
error before any page query fires — matches the D5 lock spirit
("never silently fall through").

[P1] manageGitignore wire-up only fired when --repo was passed
explicitly. performSync resolves the repo from sync.repo_path or
sources.local_path, so the common `gbrain sync` path (after
setup, no flag) never updated .gitignore. src/commands/sync.ts now
uses the same source-resolver chain as the rest of /ship: opts.repoPath
→ getDefaultSourcePath → null. Fires in both watch and one-shot modes.

[P2] getDefaultSourcePath only consulted sources.local_path, missing
the legacy global sync.repo_path config key that pre-v0.18 brains use.
Added a fallback to engine.getConfig('sync.repo_path') when the
sources row has NULL local_path. Pre-v0.18 brains now work without
forcing a `gbrain sources add . --path .` migration.

[P2] sync --all multi-source loop never called manageGitignore even
though src.local_path was already known. Each source now gets its own
gitignore update on successful sync.

Tests:
  - test/storage-export.test.ts: replaced the old "falls through to
    full export" test with one that asserts the new refusal path
    (storage-tiering config required for --restore-only).
  - test/source-resolver.test.ts: added a fallback test exercising the
    legacy sync.repo_path code path for pre-v0.18 brains.
  - All 78 storage-tiering tests still pass.

* chore: regenerate llms.txt + llms-full.txt for v0.22.11

Per CLAUDE.md: "Run `bun run build:llms` after adding a new doc."
The README's new Storage tiering section + the rewritten
docs/storage-tiering.md changed the inlined bundle. test/build-llms.test.ts
catches the drift and was failing on master pre-regen.

* fix: typecheck error in disk-walk.ts (CI #73350475897)

tsc --noEmit failed in CI because ReturnType<typeof readdirSync> with
withFileTypes:true picks an overload union that includes
Dirent<Buffer<ArrayBufferLike>>. Strict tsc treats entry.name as Buffer,
so .startsWith / .endsWith / string comparisons all blew up.

Annotate the variable as Dirent[] (string-based) and cast through unknown,
matching the pattern sync.ts already uses for its own filesystem walk.
Same runtime behavior; clean typecheck.

Tests still 9/9.

08746b06d2 v0.22.9 feat: structured error code summary for sync --skip-failed (#501)
* feat: structured error code summary for sync --skip-failed (#500)

When sync encounters per-file failures, the blocked/skip-failed messages
now include a breakdown by error code (SLUG_MISMATCH, YAML_PARSE, etc.)
instead of just a raw count. This makes it immediately obvious *why*
files failed without requiring manual investigation.

Changes:
- Add classifyErrorCode() — maps error messages to ParseValidationCode
- Add summarizeFailuresByCode() — groups failures into sorted code summary
- SyncFailure now carries a 'code' field (backfilled on acknowledge)
- acknowledgeSyncFailures() returns AcknowledgeResult {count, summary}
- sync blocked + skip-failed messages show code breakdown
- doctor sync_failures check shows code breakdown for both unacked and historical
- 12 new tests for classifyErrorCode, summarizeFailuresByCode, and structured returns

Before:
  Sync blocked: 2688 file(s) failed to parse.

After:
  Sync blocked: 2688 file(s) failed to parse:
    SLUG_MISMATCH: 2685
    YAML_DUPLICATE_KEY: 3

Closes #500

* fix: eng-review fixes for sync error-code classification

- Reorder classifyErrorCode() so DB-layer errors (DB_DUPLICATE_KEY,
  STATEMENT_TIMEOUT) check BEFORE YAML patterns. Postgres "duplicate key
  value violates unique constraint" no longer mislabels as YAML_DUPLICATE_KEY.
- Rewrite MISSING_OPEN/MISSING_CLOSE/EMPTY_FRONTMATTER/NULL_BYTES/NESTED_QUOTES
  regexes to match the canonical messages emitted by collectValidationErrors()
  in src/core/markdown.ts. Previous patterns (e.g. /missing.*open/i) never
  fired because the upstream throw site emits prose ("File is empty...",
  "No closing --- delimiter found"), not the code name.
- Extract formatCodeBreakdown() helper that accepts either raw failures or
  pre-summarized {code, count}[] input. Replaces 3 duplicate inline builders
  in src/commands/sync.ts.
- 15 new tests (37/37 pass on test/sync-failures.test.ts):
  - DB vs YAML duplicate-key disambiguation (3 cases)
  - Canonical-message coverage for the 5 frontmatter codes (7 cases)
  - acknowledgeSyncFailures() legacy-entry backfill branch (2 cases)
  - formatCodeBreakdown() dual-input shape (3 cases)
- TODOS.md: file 3 follow-ups (P2 plumb structured ParseValidationCode;
  P0-at-ship CHANGELOG migration note for AcknowledgeResult; P3 concurrent-
  safe ack of sync-failures.jsonl).

* ci: 16-core runner + 4-way matrix shard for test job

The unit test suite ran 22m17s on ubuntu-latest (2-core/7GB) because:
- 187 test files run with bun test parallelism bounded by core count
- 23 of those files spin up a fresh PGLiteEngine + initSchema in beforeEach,
  paying ~22s WASM cold-start per test on the small runner

This commit fixes the runner side:
- runs-on: ubuntu-latest-16-cores (16 vCPU / 64 GB RAM)
- strategy.matrix.shard splits 4 parallel jobs, each running ~40 of 158 unit
  test files. Single-file wall-time floor is ~3 min after the test refactor,
  so 4 shards × 16 cores hits the floor quickly without wasting cores past it.
- pre-test gates (typecheck, check-jsonb, check-progress, check-wasm) only run
  on shard 1 — they're not test files and don't benefit from sharding.

scripts/test-shard.sh partitions test files by stable FNV-1a hash mod N. Same
file always lands in the same shard, so retries are reproducible. Pure shell,
portable to bash 3.2 (macOS) and bash 5.x (CI). Excludes test/e2e/ which runs
via bun run test:e2e separately and needs DATABASE_URL.

Also: ignore .claude/ harness state files (scheduled_tasks.lock etc) instead
of just .claude/skills/.

Cost: ~$0.19/run vs $0 (public repo, default runner is free). At 50 PRs/month
that's ~$10/month for ~5x faster CI.

* test: refactor top-3 PGLite-heavy files to share one engine per file

Three test files were spinning up a fresh PGLiteEngine + connect + initSchema
in beforeEach. PGLite WASM cold-start is ~22s on the small CI runner; doing
this per test multiplied wall-time across the suite. The 3 files alone
accounted for ~6.5 min of the 22m CI run (177s + 132s + 87s).

Refactor: move PGLite setup to beforeAll (one engine per file), wipe data
in beforeEach via the new test/helpers/reset-pglite.ts helper.

The reset helper:
- TRUNCATEs every public table CASCADE, including sources (so tests that
  register their own sources don't leak rows into the next test).
- Re-seeds the default source row that pages.source_id's DEFAULT FKs against.
  Without this, the next page insert would fail FK validation.
- Preserves schema_version so migration helpers don't think the brain is on v0.

Files refactored:
- test/extract-incremental.test.ts (8 tests, was 177s on CI)
- test/brain-writer.test.ts (16 tests; only the scanBrainSources block uses
  PGLite, was 132s on CI)
- test/sync.test.ts (37 tests; only the performSync dry-run block uses PGLite,
  was 87s on CI)

All 61 tests still pass locally. The remaining 20 PGLite-heavy files use the
same beforeEach anti-pattern; this commit only refactors the proven worst
offenders. Sweep the rest in a follow-up if CI numbers indicate it's worth it.

* ci: fall back to ubuntu-latest for matrix shard

The ubuntu-latest-16-cores label requires a provisioned larger-runner pool in
repo/org settings. Without that setup, jobs queue indefinitely waiting for a
runner that doesn't exist (verified: 4 shards stuck in 'queued' status with
empty runner_name for 5+ min).

Drop back to the default 2-core ubuntu-latest. The 4-way matrix shard still
delivers ~5-6x speedup via parallelism alone — 4 jobs running in parallel,
each handling ~40 of 158 unit test files. Cost stays $0 (default runner is
free for public repos).

If we ever provision a larger-runner pool, flip this label back to
ubuntu-latest-16-cores. The matrix + sharder will use the bigger boxes
unchanged.

e734937254 fix: pass sourceId in cycle sync phase to prevent full reimport (#475)
* fix: pass sourceId in cycle sync phase to prevent full reimport

cycle.ts calls performSync without sourceId, so it always reads
the global config.sync.last_commit key instead of the per-source
sources.last_commit. When the global anchor gets garbage-collected
(after a force push or rebase), sync falls back to a full reimport
of all files — on a large brain this takes 30+ minutes and blocks
the autopilot cycle.

The fix resolves the source id from the brain directory by querying
the sources table. When a matching source exists, sync reads the
per-source anchor which is updated on every successful sync and
stays in sync with the repo history. Falls back gracefully to the
global config path for pre-v0.18 brains without a sources table.

* v0.22.5: tests + version bump for sync-cycle-source-id fix

Adds 6 regression tests in test/core/cycle.test.ts pinning the new
resolveSourceForDir() helper added to src/core/cycle.ts in this PR:

1. Seeded sources row → performSync receives matching sourceId
2. No matching row → sourceId=undefined (falls through to global key)
3. Different brainDir than registered source → undefined (no cross-match)
4. sources table missing (very old brain) → catch returns undefined,
   sync still runs. Uses a fresh PGLiteEngine because initSchema() only
   re-runs PENDING migrations; DROP TABLE on the shared engine would
   leave it permanently degraded for every later test in the file.
   (Codex review caught this landmine.)
5. Multiple rows with same local_path → resolver returns one matching
   id (non-deterministic; SQL has no ORDER BY). Documents the contract
   for the v0.23 UNIQUE-constraint follow-up.
6. Empty-string id row → resolver propagates "" (defensive case Codex
   flagged: schema PK prevents NULL but '' can be inserted).

Extends the performSync mock at line 51-65 to also capture sourceId.

Bumps:
- VERSION: 0.22.4 → 0.22.5
- package.json: 0.22.4 → 0.22.5
- CHANGELOG.md: new [0.22.5] entry following v0.22.4 voice (release
  summary + numbers table + behavior matrix + To-take-advantage block
  + itemized changes + for-contributors)
- CLAUDE.md: annotates src/core/cycle.ts entry with v0.22.5 (#475) note
- llms-full.txt: regenerated via bun run build:llms

Test results:
- Unit: 28 pass / 0 fail in test/core/cycle.test.ts (22 prior + 6 new)
- Full unit suite: pass (exit 0)
- E2E: 236 pass / 0 fail across 26 files

Plan + codex outside-voice review at:
~/.claude/plans/whimsical-bubbling-goose.md

Follow-up TODOs filed for v0.23:
- Normalize brainDir + sources.local_path before SQL compare
- Add UNIQUE index on sources.local_path
- Narrow resolveSourceForDir's catch to PG 42P01 (undefined_table)
- Add doctor check for config.sync.last_commit / sources divergence

* fix: typecheck error in cycle.test.ts test 5 (sourceId regression)

CI typecheck failed because `toContain()` on `string[]` rejects the
`string | undefined` produced by `syncCalls.at(-1)?.sourceId`'s optional
chain. Tests 1, 4, and 6 use `toBe()` which accepts `string | undefined`
through its overload, but `toContain()` is stricter.

Fix: pull the value into a typed variable, assert it's defined, then
check membership. Makes the contract explicit ("resolver returned a
defined sourceId, and it was one of the matching ids") instead of
relying on a silent undefined → no-match-in-array assertion.

Locally:
- bun run typecheck: clean
- bun test test/core/cycle.test.ts: 28 pass / 0 fail (75 expect calls)
- All CI gate scripts: OK (jsonb, progress-to-stdout, wasm-embedded)

* ci: add --timeout=60000 to E2E runner to prevent setupDB flake

PR #475's Tier 1 (Mechanical) CI job hit a 5000.09ms beforeAll hook
timeout in `E2E: Tags > (unnamed)`. Cause: scripts/run-e2e.sh invokes
`bun test "$f"` without a --timeout flag, falling back to bun's 5s
default. setupDB() does TRUNCATE CASCADE on ~30 tables, and on a CI
runner under load that can exceed 5s.

Match what the unit suite uses (--timeout=60000 in package.json's
"test" script). Same 1m ceiling, no behavior change for healthy runs;
just removes the artificial 5s floor on hooks.

Verified locally: bun test --timeout=60000 test/e2e/mechanical.test.ts
runs 78 pass / 0 fail in 27.99s against a fresh pgvector pg16 docker
container.

f718c595b3 v0.21.0 feat: Code Cathedral II — call-graph edges, two-pass retrieval, parent-scope chunking (#422)
* feat: v0.18.0 baseline — code indexing + multi-repo (Layer 0)

Tree-sitter-based code chunker for TS/JS/Python/Ruby/Go. Splits code at
semantic boundaries (functions, classes, types, exports). Each chunk
includes a structured header for embedding context.

Multi-repo config: gbrain repos add/list/remove, gbrain sync --all.
Strategy-aware sync: markdown (default), code, or auto. New PageType
'code' for code file pages.

This is Layer 0 of the v0.18.0 code-indexing plan (see ~/.claude/plans
cathedral plan). Subsequent layers add: tests, bun --compile WASM
embedding + CI guard (A1), schema migrations v16 (pages.repo_name) +
v17 (content_chunks code metadata), per-repo sync bookmarks, runCycle
multi-repo, Chonkie chunker parity (E2a), incremental chunking (E2),
doc↔impl linking (E1), markdown fence extraction (E3), symbol navigation
commands (code-def, code-refs), cost preview, BrainBench code category,
CHANGELOG, migration file, docs.

Backward compatible: no config changes = existing behavior preserved.

* feat: v0.19.0 Layer 1 — tests for baseline + errors envelope + version bump

Adds the structured error envelope (src/core/errors.ts) that downstream
v0.19.0 commands (code-def, code-refs, sync --all cost preview,
importCodeFile) all hand back to agents. The envelope follows the v0.17.0
CycleReport.PhaseResult.error shape so agent-consumption stays consistent
across every gbrain surface.

Test coverage for Wintermute's baseline (added in Layer 0):
- test/errors.test.ts — envelope helper + GBrainError + serializeError
- test/multi-repo.test.ts — config CRUD, dedup, file permissions
- test/sync-strategy.test.ts — isSyncable strategy matrix + include/exclude
  globs + slugifyCodePath + pathToSlug with pageKind

Bug fixes uncovered by the new tests:
- src/core/sync.ts: globToRegex handles `src/**/*.ts` matching `src/foo.ts`
  (zero intermediate dirs). `**/` now compiles to `(?:.*/)?` instead of
  `.*/`. Also `?` now matches only non-slash chars (was `.`).
- src/core/config.ts: configDir() respects GBRAIN_HOME env override so
  tests can isolate ~/.gbrain/. Matches GBRAIN_AUDIT_DIR convention.
  Bun's os.homedir() ignores $HOME on macOS, so we need an explicit
  override variable.

Version bump: package.json 0.18.2 → 0.19.0. v0.18.0-2 were already
released (multi-source brains + RLS + migration hardening), so the next
free minor for code indexing is 0.19.0. Wintermute's baseline author
label of 0.16.4 had been stale since v0.17.0 shipped; no user-visible
regression from the jump.

Per the rebased cathedral plan: Wintermute's multi-repo.ts and repos
CLI are preserved at the baseline but will be superseded in Layer 4 by
the v0.18.0 sources system (src/core/source-resolver.ts,
src/commands/sources.ts). multi-repo tests stay valid for the baseline
and will be removed alongside the code they cover.

* feat: v0.19.0 Layer 2 — bun --compile WASM embedding + CI guard

The single highest-risk change in v0.19.0 code indexing. Before this, the
chunker loaded WASMs via `new URL('../../../node_modules/...', import.meta.url)`
which silently breaks in the compiled binary (no node_modules at runtime).
Users would see degraded chunking quality with no error, just fallback-
recursive chunks instead of real semantic chunks. Codex flagged this as
the #1 silent-failure mode.

Mechanics:

- `src/assets/wasm/tree-sitter.wasm` + 36 grammar WASMs committed to the
  repo (50MB). Not a small check-in, but the alternative is a postinstall
  script that runs before every dev bun run and fails fragile-ly on
  network errors.

- `src/core/chunkers/code.ts` uses Bun's `import ... with { type: 'file' }`
  import attribute. At runtime the imported value is a file path — the
  actual repo path in dev, a bundler-synthesized path in the compiled
  binary. The tree-sitter runtime's `Language.load(path)` reads it the
  same way in both cases.

- Layer 2 keeps the 6-language support Wintermute shipped (TS/TSX/JS/Py/
  Rb/Go). Layer 5 (E2a chunker parity) expands to all 36 bundled grammars.

- CHUNKER_VERSION=2 constant introduced. importCodeFile will fold this
  into content_hash in Layer 3 so chunker-shape changes across releases
  force clean re-chunks without the user needing `sync --force`.

CI guard — `scripts/check-wasm-embedded.sh` + `scripts/chunker-smoketest.ts`:

- Compiles a smoketest binary that calls chunkCodeText on a known TS
  snippet.
- Asserts the output has `has_real_symbols: true`, a `[TypeScript]`
  language tag, and the expected symbol name.
- If the chunker silently falls through to recursive chunks, the
  assertions fail the build.
- Wired into `bun test` via package.json script pipeline. Also exposed
  as `bun run check:wasm` for standalone invocation.

Verification:
- Dev: `bun -e '...'` smoke test returns 2 chunks with correct symbol
  names in under 100ms.
- Compiled: `bash scripts/check-wasm-embedded.sh` passes end to end.
- Binary size: the gbrain binary grows from ~90MB to ~140MB, dominated
  by the 50MB of grammar WASMs. Still well within normal for CLIs that
  ship a language runtime.

* feat: v0.19.0 Layer 3 — schema migrations for page_kind + chunk code metadata

Adds two migrations to unblock C6/C7 (query --lang, code-def, code-refs)
and the orphans/auto-link branching in later layers.

v25 (pages_page_kind):

- ALTER TABLE pages ADD COLUMN page_kind TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT 'markdown'
  CHECK (page_kind IN ('markdown','code'))
- Postgres path uses ADD CONSTRAINT ... NOT VALID + VALIDATE CONSTRAINT
  in a separate statement so tables with millions of pages don't hold a
  write lock during the initial check. PGLite has no concurrent writers,
  so its variant uses the simpler ALTER TABLE pattern.
- Existing rows carry DEFAULT 'markdown' — pre-v0.19 brains were
  markdown-only by definition.

v26 (content_chunks_code_metadata):

- ALTER TABLE content_chunks ADD COLUMN language, symbol_name,
  symbol_type, start_line, end_line (all nullable).
- Two partial indexes: idx_chunks_symbol_name WHERE symbol_name IS NOT
  NULL, and idx_chunks_language WHERE language IS NOT NULL. Only code
  chunks populate these columns, so partial indexes stay small even on
  a 50K-chunk brain with mixed markdown+code.
- Markdown chunks leave all five columns NULL. Only importCodeFile
  populates them, from the tree-sitter AST via chunkCodeText.

Wiring (both engines):

- PageInput gains `page_kind?: PageKind` ('markdown' | 'code'). Defaults
  to 'markdown' when omitted so existing callers don't change. putPage
  on both engines writes it through, with ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE updating
  page_kind alongside the other fields.
- ChunkInput gains language, symbol_name, symbol_type, start_line,
  end_line (all optional). upsertChunks on both engines writes them
  through. Existing markdown call sites pass nothing and get NULLs —
  zero behavior change for markdown pages.

importCodeFile updates:

- Sets page_kind='code' on the PageInput.
- Populates chunk metadata from the chunker's CodeChunk.metadata for
  every chunk it persists. Columns line up 1:1 with the tree-sitter AST
  output already produced by the chunker.
- Folds CHUNKER_VERSION=2 into content_hash so chunker shape changes
  across releases force clean re-chunks without `sync --force`. The
  hash was previously {title, type, content, lang} — now also
  chunker_version.

Fresh-install path (src/schema.sql + pglite-schema.ts):

- Both include the page_kind column + CHECK constraint.
- Both include the five new content_chunks columns.
- Both ship the partial indexes so new brains have the same query
  performance as migrated brains. Ran `bun run build:schema` to
  regenerate src/core/schema-embedded.ts from schema.sql.

Naming: renamed our new Error subclass in src/core/errors.ts from
GBrainError to StructuredAgentError. The legacy GBrainError in
src/core/types.ts predates this change and has a different shape
(positional problem/cause/fix arguments) — keeping both under the same
name was inviting a year of import ambiguity. New v0.19.0 surfaces use
StructuredAgentError + the serializeError() helper.

Tests:

- test/migrations-v0_19_0.test.ts — 12 cases. Covers: MIGRATIONS array
  shape (v25/v26 presence, NOT VALID pattern on Postgres, partial
  index WHERE clauses), fresh-install schema (page_kind default, CHECK
  constraint rejects invalid values, chunk metadata nullable), putPage
  round-trip (markdown default + code explicit), upsertChunks
  round-trip (code metadata preserved + markdown chunks leave NULLs).
- All 139 existing + new unit tests pass on PGLite (1.5 sec).

* feat: v0.19.0 Layer 4 — delete Wintermute's multi-repo, wire sources

Replaces Wintermute's short-lived repos abstraction with the v0.18.0
sources subsystem. Codex flagged this during plan review: v0.18.0's
sources table had already shipped the right shape (per-source
last_commit, federated search config, RLS-friendly) while Wintermute
coded against a ~/.gbrain/config.json repos array. Two systems solving
one problem.

Keep the surface, swap the backend:

- src/cli.ts: `gbrain repos` routes through runSources with a one-line
  deprecation nudge on stderr. Scripts like `gbrain repos list` and
  `gbrain repos add .` keep working against the sources table. Removed
  the pre-engine-connect branch and added a case inside the
  handleCliOnly switch so repos gets the DB connection it now needs.
- src/cli.ts help text: new SOURCES section replaces MULTI-REPO.
  References the canonical `sources` commands with `repos` tagged
  DEPRECATED.

sync --all — was iterating ~/.gbrain/config.json repos; now iterates
sources rows with local_path IS NOT NULL:

- Reads id, name, local_path, config jsonb via executeRaw.
- Honors config.syncEnabled=false (matching Wintermute's opt-out).
- Honors config.strategy for per-source markdown/code/auto filtering.
- Passes sourceId through to performSync so last_commit tracking lands
  on the right sources row (was clobbering a global bookmark before).

Deletions:

- src/core/multi-repo.ts deleted (120 lines of config CRUD now handled
  by sources table + RLS).
- src/commands/repos.ts deleted (121 lines of CLI parsing now handled
  by src/commands/sources.ts).
- test/multi-repo.test.ts deleted (25 tests against the deleted module;
  the schema-backed behavior is covered by test/sources.test.ts from
  v0.18.0 + test/repos-alias.test.ts added here).
- src/core/config.ts: removed the `repos` field from GBrainConfig.
  Legacy installs with `repos` in ~/.gbrain/config.json will see that
  key ignored; no migration written because zero users are on that
  path (Wintermute's commit never shipped on master).

Tests:

- test/repos-alias.test.ts — round-trips add/list/remove through
  runSources to verify the alias path works. Also asserts the deleted
  module is actually gone (catches accidental resurrection during
  rebase conflicts).
- All 162 prior unit tests + 2 new = 164 pass on PGLite.

Codex's P0 #2 (per-repo sync state) and P0 #3 (slug collision) are
both resolved here — sources.last_commit scopes bookmarks per source,
and pages.slug uniqueness is (source_id, slug), which is what the
v0.18.0 schema already shipped.

* feat: v0.19.0 Layer 5 — Chonkie chunker parity (E2a)

Expands Wintermute's 6-language chunker to 29 languages, swaps the
heuristic tokenizer for the real thing, and adds small-sibling merging
so a file of 20 tiny const declarations doesn't produce 20 embedding
calls. This closes the Chonkie gap Garry called out in CEO review.

Language coverage — 6 → 29:

- Added grammars: rust, java, c_sharp, cpp, c, php, swift, kotlin,
  scala, lua, elixir, elm, ocaml, dart, zig, solidity, bash, css,
  html, vue, json, yaml, toml. All shipping in src/assets/wasm/
  (committed in Layer 2). Bun's --compile bundles every import
  attributes path, so the compiled binary carries every grammar.
- TOP_LEVEL_TYPES populated for the 11 most-used new languages
  (rust, java, c_sharp, cpp, c, php, swift, kotlin, scala, lua,
  elixir, bash, solidity) + the original 6. Tree-sitter loads the
  grammar but the chunker falls through to recursive chunking when
  TOP_LEVEL_TYPES isn't set — still correct output, just less
  semantic. Every grammar ships with a working fallback.
- detectCodeLanguage extended for 29 extension families including
  .mts/.cts (TypeScript), .cc/.hpp/.cxx (C++), .kt/.kts (Kotlin),
  .scala/.sc (Scala), .ex/.exs (Elixir), etc.
- DISPLAY_LANG table lookup replaces the inline 6-entry map;
  structured headers now read '[Rust]', '[C#]', '[PHP]' etc.

Accurate tokenizer:

- @dqbd/tiktoken with cl100k_base encoding (same encoder
  text-embedding-3-large uses). Lazy-loaded on first call via
  require() so dev and compiled binary share the init path.
- Falls back to the old len/4 heuristic only if the encoder fails
  to initialize (vanishingly unlikely — keeps the chunker available
  instead of throwing).
- Existing estimateTokens call sites (large-node threshold +
  sub-range splitting + new merge pass) all now see real counts.
  Real code is 2-3x more token-dense than prose; the old heuristic
  systematically under-split so large functions sometimes exceeded
  the embedding API's 8191-token hard cap.

Small-sibling merging:

- New mergeSmallSiblings post-pass runs on the chunk list after
  tree-sitter extraction.
- Adjacent chunks under 40% of chunkSizeTokens get accumulated
  into one merged chunk up to the full budget.
- Large chunks (functions, classes) pass through untouched.
- Merged chunks get symbolName=null, symbolType='merged',
  startLine/endLine spanning the group. The header reads:
  '[Lang] path:N-M merged (K siblings)' so retrieval can still
  show coherent context.
- Mirrors Chonkie's CodeChunker._group_child_nodes() +
  bisect_left accumulation. A Go file with 30 top-level imports +
  5 functions no longer produces 30 separate import chunks.

CHUNKER_VERSION bumped 2 → 3:

- Any existing v0.18.x brain with code pages will re-chunk on next
  sync because content_hash folds CHUNKER_VERSION in. Without the
  bump, stale (2-3x token-off, non-merged) chunks would persist
  forever until manual 'sync --force'.

CI guard + smoketest updates:

- scripts/chunker-smoketest.ts replaced the tiny hello/Foo/Id
  fixture with a realistic TS snippet (calculateScore with branches
  + UserRegistry class) so at least one chunk has a concrete symbol
  name — small-sibling merging would otherwise collapse the old
  fixture and fail the assertion.
- scripts/check-wasm-embedded.sh assertions updated: check
  has_symbol_names:true (at-least-one-real-symbol), still verify
  [TypeScript] header and specifically the calculateScore symbol.

Tests — test/chunkers/code.test.ts (15 cases):

- CHUNKER_VERSION=3 shape assertion (guards silent re-chunking
  across releases).
- detectCodeLanguage across 29 extensions + unknown + case-insensitive.
- chunkCodeText on TypeScript / Python / Rust / Go producing chunks
  with correct language tag + symbol names.
- Fallback path for unsupported extension produces recursive-chunk
  module-kind output.
- Small-sibling merging: 5 tiny consts → 1-2 chunks; big function
  passes through untouched; merged chunk line range spans group.
- Structured header shape: starts with [Lang], contains file path,
  line range, symbol name.
- Empty input returns empty array.

All 177 unit tests pass + CI guard on compiled binary passes.

* feat: v0.19.0 Layer 6 — incremental chunking + doc↔impl linking

Two expansions from the plan's E1 + E2. E3 (markdown fence extraction)
deferred to a follow-up PR — the feature surface is small and doesn't
block the main cathedral.

E1 — Design-doc ↔ implementation linking:

- New extractCodeRefs() in src/core/link-extraction.ts. Scans markdown
  prose for references like 'src/core/sync.ts:42'. Anchored on a
  prefix allowlist (src|lib|app|test|tests|scripts|docs|packages|
  internal|cmd|examples) + the 39-extension code file list so random
  phrases like 'foo/bar.js' don't generate false-positive edges. Dedups
  by path (first occurrence wins).
- importFromContent writes bidirectional edges for every code ref
  found in compiled_truth + timeline:
    markdown_slug --[documents]--> code_slug
    code_slug     --[documented_by]--> markdown_slug
  Both use link_source='markdown', origin_page_id=markdown_slug,
  origin_field='compiled_truth' so runAutoLink reconciliation scopes
  edges correctly.
- addLink's inner SELECT naturally drops edges to non-existent pages,
  so a markdown guide imported before the code repo is synced writes
  no edges — they'll land when the code arrives via A3 reverse-scan
  (deferred to a follow-up since it only activates for users who sync
  markdown and code in opposite order).

E2 — Incremental chunking:

- importCodeFile reads existing chunks via engine.getChunks(slug)
  before embedding.
- Keys existing chunks by `${chunk_index}:${chunk_text}`. Any new
  chunk that matches verbatim at the same index reuses the existing
  embedding (chunk.embedding + token_count). Only new/changed chunks
  go to embedBatch.
- Cost impact: a daily autopilot on a stable repo touches ~2-5% of
  chunks on each run. E2 cuts OpenAI embedding spend by ~95% vs
  naive full re-embed. Stated before (Codex A2 decision) and now
  actually implemented.
- Uses chunk_index + chunk_text as the key (not symbol_fqn) because
  the tree-sitter chunker already makes chunk_index semantic — it's
  AST-order. A blank line at the top of a file shifts start_byte
  for every chunk below but leaves chunk_text identical, so the
  cache still hits.
- Fallback: when embedBatch throws (rate-limit, network, etc.) the
  existing warn-but-continue behavior stays. Un-embedded chunks land
  in the DB with NULL embedding; a later `embed --stale` will fix
  them.

Tests (test/link-extraction-code-refs.test.ts, 10 cases):

- :line suffix capture.
- Prefix allowlist (11 directories).
- Extension recognition (39 extensions).
- Rejects paths outside allowlisted prefixes.
- Rejects non-code extensions.
- Dedup by path (first occurrence wins).
- Different paths coexist.
- Real-markdown integration: guide with 4 code refs (one with line
  number) produces the right set of paths.
- Doesn't match URL-like strings (word-boundary behavior).

Tests (test/incremental-chunking.test.ts, 3 cases):

- Identical content re-import skips entirely (content_hash match).
- Editing ONE function in a 3-function file preserves the other two
  chunks verbatim (same chunk_text in DB). Verifies the cache-hit
  path actually works end-to-end on PGLite.
- Fresh-file import embeds all chunks (nothing to reuse).

All 189 unit tests pass on PGLite.

* feat: v0.19.0 Layer 7 — code-def + code-refs CLI surfaces

Delivers the magical-moment commands for v0.19.0 code indexing. These
are the agent-facing endpoints that turn 'brain-first lookup' from a
markdown-only Iron Law into something that covers code too.

gbrain code-def <symbol>:

- Queries content_chunks.symbol_name = $1 AND page_kind = 'code' AND
  symbol_type IN (function, class, interface, type, enum, struct,
  trait, module, contract, export statement).
- Orders by symbol_type rank (function first, then class, etc.) then
  page slug then line number — deterministic across runs.
- --lang <language> filter narrows to a single language.
- --limit N caps results (default 20).
- Returns Array<{ slug, file, language, symbol_type, start_line,
  end_line, snippet }> — the 7-field shape the agent persona needs.

gbrain code-refs <symbol>:

- Bypasses the standard searchKeyword path, which uses DISTINCT ON
  (slug) to collapse results to one chunk per page. That collapse is
  right for markdown search but wrong for code-refs — a single file
  typically has many usage sites, each interesting to the agent.
- Direct ILIKE scan over content_chunks + JOIN pages WHERE page_kind
  = 'code'. Word-boundary precision is a follow-up (would need
  tsvector or regex); for v0.19.0 the substring heuristic is good
  enough because symbol names are distinctive by design.
- Same --lang / --limit / --json flag surface as code-def.
- Returns Array<{ slug, file, language, symbol_name, symbol_type,
  start_line, end_line, snippet }> — 8 fields (code-def + the
  containing symbol_name).

Agent-DX doctrine (from DX review):

- Auto-JSON on pipe: both commands emit JSON when stdout is not a
  TTY (gh-CLI convention). Explicit --json forces JSON on TTY;
  --no-json forces human output even when piped.
- Structured error envelope: missing symbol argument returns
  { class: 'UsageError', code: '..._requires_symbol', hint: '...' }
  serialized as JSON in non-TTY mode, plain message in TTY.
  Catch-all DB error path uses serializeError() — no raw stack
  traces leak to the agent.

Tests — test/code-def-refs.test.ts (10 cases):

- Seeds a fixture repo (two TS files with deliberately large symbols
  to stay independent under small-sibling merging).
- findCodeDef:
    - Resolves interface + function by name to the right file.
    - Empty-symbol query returns [].
    - Language filter narrows to typescript; python returns [].
- findCodeRefs:
    - Finds multiple usage sites across files (both src/engine.ts
      and src/sync.ts appear when searching for BrainEngine — this
      is the DISTINCT ON bypass working).
    - Deterministic ordering by slug + line number.
    - Unknown symbol returns [].
    - --limit caps result count.
    - Snippets are <= 500 chars (the agent doesn't get flooded).

CLI wiring:

- Added 'code-def', 'code-refs' to CLI_ONLY.
- New switch cases in handleCliOnly call runCodeDef / runCodeRefs.
- Help text gains a CODE INDEXING (v0.19.0) section.

All 199 unit tests pass.

Deferred from Layer 7 per the cathedral plan:
- sync --all cost preview with TTY detection — requires folding the
  tokenizer into the sync path. Pushed to a follow-up.
- query --lang filter — requires changes to src/core/search/*.ts.
  Pushed to a follow-up.

* feat: v0.19.0 Layer 8 — BrainBench code category (E2E)

Retrieval-quality gate for v0.19.0 code indexing. Seeds a ~25-file
fictional corpus across 5 languages (TS, Python, Go, Rust, Java),
imports each via importCodeFile, and asserts code-def + code-refs
produce the expected shape. Runs against PGLite in-memory so no
OpenAI key or external Postgres is needed; reproducible on CI with
just Bun.

What the E2E covers:

- Corpus seeded: 25+ code pages, all page_kind='code'.
- code-def finds AuthService across multiple languages (≥2 of
  TS/Rust/Java).
- code-def --lang typescript filters precisely (P@5=1.0 for
  CacheService + typescript).
- code-refs surfaces multiple usage sites across files (the
  DISTINCT ON bypass working in practice).
- code-refs over the shared "start" method across 5 languages
  produces ≥3 language hits (ranking stability).
- Magical-moment assertion: code-refs completes in <500ms on a
  25-file corpus (budget is 100ms; 500ms pad absorbs CI variance).
- MRR sanity: top result for exact symbol is the defining file.
- Edge cases: non-existent symbol returns [], not error. Language
  filter with zero matches returns []. Re-import is idempotent.

Chunker retune:

- Small-sibling merge threshold dropped from 40% to 15% of
  chunkSizeTokens. The 40% figure was collapsing 3-method classes
  into 'merged' chunks, killing symbol_name lookups for the entire
  class. 15% matches the original intent: merge truly tiny
  declarations (const X = 1; import ... from ...;) while leaving
  substantive symbols (functions, classes) independent. Verified
  by the BrainBench test — AuthService is now its own chunk with
  symbol_name='AuthService', so findCodeDef('AuthService') resolves.
- Unit test updated: 10 consts with a generous chunkSizeTokens=1000
  still exercise the merge path.

Total v0.19.0 unit + E2E coverage: 91 tests across 9 new test
files, 357 assertions, all green.

* feat: v0.19.0 Layer 9 — release: CHANGELOG + migration + docs

Closes out the v0.19.0 cathedral. Total shipped across 10 layers:

- 91 new unit + E2E tests (9 new files, 357 assertions, all green)
- 2 schema migrations (v25 pages.page_kind + v26 content_chunks code metadata)
- 4 new CLI surfaces (repos [alias] + code-def + code-refs +
  sources passthrough)
- 1 new core module (src/core/errors.ts)
- 36 tree-sitter grammar WASMs embedded via Bun --compile
- 1 CI guard preventing silent-chunker regression
- Wintermute's multi-repo replaced with v0.18.0 sources backend

CHANGELOG.md — release-summary section in the GStack/Garry voice per
CLAUDE.md "Release-summary template": bold two-line headline + lead
paragraph + "The numbers that matter" table + "What this means for
builders" + itemized changes + "To take advantage of v0.19.0" block.
No em dashes, no AI vocabulary, no banned phrases. Numbers are from
the v0.19.0 test-fixture benchmarks.

CLAUDE.md — four new file entries in the Key files section
(src/core/chunkers/ annotated with v0.19.0 additions, src/core/errors.ts,
src/assets/wasm/, src/commands/code-def.ts + code-refs.ts).

skills/migrations/v0.19.0.md — agent-readable migration walkthrough
per the v0.11.0 convention. Tells the agent what to do after
`gbrain upgrade` runs the orchestrator: verify schema v26, register a
code source via `gbrain sources add`, run `sync --source <id>`,
confirm `gbrain code-def` / `code-refs` both work. Notes the deprecated
`gbrain repos` alias for scripts that used Wintermute's baseline.
Flagged in pending-host-work.jsonl per the v0.11.0 convention so
headless agents surface the prompt.

VERSION — 0.18.2 → 0.19.0.

All 91 v0.19.0 tests + the CI guard pass.

* docs: v0.19.0 — add 4 deferred follow-ups to TODOS.md

Lands the four items the v0.19.0 cathedral explicitly scoped out but
that the /plan-ceo-review + /plan-devex-review + /plan-eng-review chain
identified as genuine follow-ups rather than abandoned ideas.

Items added under a new 'code-indexing (v0.19.0 follow-ups)' section:

- P1 — sync --all cost preview with TTY detection. Closes DX fix #1
  from the /plan-devex-review pass: the agent persona can't respond
  to stdin prompts. Non-TTY path must emit a parseable
  ConfirmationRequired envelope; TTY path uses [y/N]. File refs:
  src/commands/sync.ts:590, src/core/chunkers/code.ts estimateTokens,
  src/core/errors.ts buildError.

- P2 — query --lang filter through src/core/search/*.ts. Column
  ships in v0.19.0 (migration v26 + partial index); the query path
  just needs to respect it. Keeps ranking honest when the user
  knows the language. File refs: src/core/search/, pglite-engine
  searchKeyword, test/e2e/code-indexing.test.ts language-filter
  pattern.

- P2 — E3 markdown code-fence extraction. After parseMarkdown,
  iterate marked's lexer tokens for { type: 'code', lang, text }
  and chunk each through chunkCodeText with chunk_source='fenced_code'.
  ~40% of gbrain's brain is guides with substantial inline code —
  this lands those fences as first-class TS/Python/Go chunks in
  search instead of treating them as prose.

- P2 — A3 reverse-scan backfill for doc↔impl. Companion piece to
  E1. Markdown-first → code-later import order currently loses edges
  because addLink's JOIN drops them when the code page doesn't exist
  yet. A3 makes importCodeFile scan existing markdown for
  references to the new code path and backfill edges both
  directions. Trade-off: per-file scan is expensive on first sync;
  batch 'gbrain reconcile-links' is an alternative shape.

Each entry follows the CLAUDE.md TODOS format: What/Why/Pros/Cons/
Context with exact file refs/line numbers/Effort (S/M/L + human vs
CC)/Depends on. All four are purely additive on top of v0.19.0 —
nothing blocks.

* fix: pre-existing test infrastructure + typecheck drift

Three pre-existing conditions surfaced when running the full suite and
blocked a clean CI floor for Cathedral II work:

1. `bun run test` default 5s hook timeout fails under load. PGLite WASM
   init can exceed 5s when many test files spin up instances in parallel.
   The bunfig.toml `timeout = 60_000` key is honored by `bun test` but
   does not propagate to beforeEach/afterEach hooks when `bun test` runs
   behind `bun run typecheck` in the CI chain. Pass `--timeout=60000`
   explicitly on the command line, where it covers both per-test and
   per-hook timeouts.

   Before:  2136 pass / 30 fail (on-branch baseline)
   After:   2272 pass /  0 fail

   All 30 failures were `beforeEach/afterEach hook timed out for this
   test` → `TypeError: undefined is not an object (evaluating
   'engine.disconnect')` — i.e. the hook never finished connecting
   PGLite, so the engine variable was never assigned, so afterEach
   tripped on `engine.disconnect()`. The new timeout gives PGLite
   WASM init enough headroom under concurrent load.

2. `test/repos-alias.test.ts` references the deliberately-deleted
   `src/core/multi-repo.ts` via a dynamic import inside a try/catch
   (the test asserts the module is no longer importable at runtime).
   TS 5.x module resolution flags this at typecheck time even inside
   try/catch. Build the path at runtime (`'../src/core/' +
   'multi-repo.ts'`) so TS's compile-time module resolution doesn't
   fail on a path the test is EXPLICITLY verifying doesn't resolve.

3. `llms-full.txt` drifted from `bun run build:llms` output (earlier
   CLAUDE.md updates in v0.19.0 never regenerated). `bun run build:llms`
   now produces matching output.

Zero behavior changes to production code. Test infrastructure only.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 1 — Foundation schema migration

Layer 1 of 14 for the v0.20.0 "best code search in the world" cathedral.
Ships all Cathedral II DDL atomically so downstream layers have the
columns + tables + trigger they depend on. Schema-only; no consumer
behavior changes until Layer 5 (A1 edge extractor).

Reordered to Layer 1 after codex second-pass review (SP-4): previously
Layer 0b (chunk-grain FTS trigger) referenced columns added in the
former Layer 3 (Foundation), breaking bisectability. All schema DDL
now lands first; every subsequent layer's prerequisites exist.

### What this migration adds (one idempotent v27 transaction)

1. `content_chunks` gains 4 new columns:
   - `parent_symbol_path TEXT[]` — scope chain for nested symbols (A3)
   - `doc_comment TEXT` — extracted JSDoc/docstring (A4)
   - `symbol_name_qualified TEXT` — 'Admin::UsersController#render' (A1)
   - `search_vector TSVECTOR` — chunk-grain FTS (Layer 1b consumer)
   All nullable; markdown chunks leave them NULL.

2. `sources.chunker_version TEXT` (SP-1 gate). Layer 10 will check this
   against CURRENT_CHUNKER_VERSION and force a full sync walk on
   mismatch, bypassing the git-HEAD up_to_date early-return that would
   otherwise make a bare CHUNKER_VERSION bump a silent no-op.

3. `code_edges_chunk` — resolved call-graph + reference edges.
   - `from_chunk_id` + `to_chunk_id` with FK CASCADE from content_chunks
   - UNIQUE (from_chunk_id, to_chunk_id, edge_type) holds idempotency
   - `source_id TEXT` matches `sources.id` actual type (codex F4 caught
     the prior UUID typo)
   - source scoping enforced in resolution logic, not the key, because
     from_chunk_id → pages.source_id already determines it

4. `code_edges_symbol` — unresolved refs. Target symbol known by
   qualified name; defining chunk not seen yet. Rows UNION with
   code_edges_chunk on read (codex 1.3b); no promotion step (SP-7).

5. `update_chunk_search_vector` trigger — BEFORE INSERT/UPDATE OF
   (chunk_text, doc_comment, symbol_name_qualified). Weights
   doc_comment and symbol_name_qualified at 'A', chunk_text at 'B'.
   Natural-language queries rank doc-comment hits above body text
   (A4 intent, delivered via the trigger from day one even though
   Layer 5 populates the doc_comment column).

### Engine interface + types

- `BrainEngine` gains 6 new methods for code edges, all stubbed in
  both engines with explicit NotImplemented errors pointing at the
  layer that will fill them (5, 7, or 1b):
    addCodeEdges, deleteCodeEdgesForChunks, getCallersOf,
    getCalleesOf, getEdgesByChunk, searchKeywordChunks

- `CodeEdgeInput`, `CodeEdgeResult` types added to src/core/types.ts

- `SearchOpts` extended with Cathedral II fields: language, symbolKind,
  nearSymbol, walkDepth, sourceId (all optional; consumers wire in
  Layer 5/7/10)

- `ChunkInput` extended with: parent_symbol_path, doc_comment,
  symbol_name_qualified (populated by importCodeFile in Layer 5/6)

- `Chunk` read shape mirrors the added columns as optional fields

- `chunk_source` union widens to include 'fenced_code' for D2 fence
  extraction (Layer 6 consumer)

### Tests

`test/migrations-v0_20_0.test.ts` — 17 structural assertions against
the v27 migration registry. Covers every column + table + index + the
trigger weight shape. E2E migration-application coverage lands in
`test/e2e/cathedral-ii.test.ts` alongside Layer 5.

### Status

- CEO + Eng + 2 codex passes CLEARED (see docs/designs/CODE_CATHEDRAL_II.md)
- 16 cross-model findings absorbed (7 codex pass 1 + 6 codex pass 2
  + 3 eng review)
- 13 more layers to go (0a → 14); see plan for full sequencing.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 2 (1a) — file-classifier widening + SP-5 slug dispatch

Codex F1: `sync.ts:35` v0.19.0 classified only 9 extensions as code.
Rust/Java/C#/C++/Swift/Kotlin/etc. never reached the chunker on a
normal repo sync, making v0.19.0's "29 languages" claim aspirational
on the read path. Layer 2 widens the classifier so every language the
chunker knows (~35 extensions) actually reaches it during sync.

### Changes

1. `src/core/sync.ts` CODE_EXTENSIONS widened from 9 to 35 extensions,
   matching the chunker's detectCodeLanguage coverage: adds .rs, .java,
   .cs, .cpp/.cc/.cxx/.hpp/.hxx/.hh, .c/.h, .php, .swift, .kt/.kts,
   .scala/.sc, .lua, .ex/.exs, .elm, .ml/.mli, .dart, .zig, .sol,
   .sh/.bash, .css, .html/.htm, .vue, .json, .yaml/.yml, .toml,
   .mts/.cts.

2. `src/core/sync.ts` adds `resolveSlugForPath(path)` — SP-5 fix.
   Before Cathedral II, sync delete/rename paths called
   `pathToSlug(path)` with default pageKind='markdown'. For the 9-ext
   classifier this was mostly fine (code files rare), but widening to
   35 exts means Rust/Java/Ruby/etc. deletes and renames would mismatch
   on slug shape (pathToSlug markdown-style vs slugifyCodePath
   code-style). resolveSlugForPath dispatches on isCodeFilePath so
   delete/rename always hit the right page. Used in `src/commands/sync.ts`
   at the three slug-resolution sites (un-syncable delete, batch delete,
   rename from/to).

3. `src/core/chunkers/code.ts` adds `setLanguageFallback(fn)` +
   optional `content` arg to `detectCodeLanguage(path, content?)`.
   Pre-wires the Magika fallback hook that Layer 9 (B2) will consume
   for extension-less files (Dockerfile, Makefile, shell shebangs).
   Null default → no behavior change today; Layer 9 sets it at bootstrap.
   Fallback throws are swallowed (recursive chunker is always an
   acceptable degradation).

### Tests

- `test/sync-classifier-widening.test.ts` — 20 cases covering the full
  widened extension set, resolveSlugForPath dispatch, and the Magika
  fallback hook contract (including throw-swallow and null-pass-through).

- `test/sync-strategy.test.ts` updated: `.json` is no longer rejected
  (the chunker's language map includes JSON for structured-data
  chunking). Test clarifies Cathedral II semantics; adds .svg + .zip
  as non-code examples.

### CI result

2292 pass / 0 fail via `bun run test`, 388s wall time.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 3 (1b) — chunk-grain FTS with page-grain wrap

Codex F2 caught that v0.19.0's searchKeyword ranked via pages.search_vector,
so doc-comment content living on a chunk couldn't influence ranking and A2
two-pass retrieval had no way to find the best matching chunk. Layer 3
moves the FTS primitive to content_chunks.search_vector (the column +
trigger added in Layer 1/v27), dedups-to-best-chunk-per-page on return
so every external caller still sees the v0.19.0 page-grain contract
(SP-6), and exposes searchKeywordChunks as the raw chunk-grain primitive
A2 two-pass will consume (Layer 7).

### Backfill migration v28

Layer 1's trigger only fires on INSERT/UPDATE — rows inserted before v27
applied had NULL search_vector. v28 backfills every existing chunk with
the same weight shape the trigger uses (doc_comment + symbol_name_qualified
at weight A, chunk_text at B). Idempotent via `WHERE search_vector IS NULL`;
re-runs pick up only remaining NULL rows. ~2-3s on a 20K-chunk brain.

### searchKeyword rewrite (both engines)

CTE chain: rank chunks by cc.search_vector → DISTINCT ON (slug) picks
best chunk per page → order by score → limit. External shape identical
to v0.19.0: one row per matched page, score comes from the best chunk
on that page, chunk metadata attached. Zero breaking changes for
backlinks counting, enrichment-service.countMentions, list_pages, etc.

Inner fetch limit is 3x the requested page limit so dedup has enough
chunks to produce N distinct pages (a co-occurring-term cluster in one
page can't eat the result set).

Postgres keeps the SET LOCAL statement_timeout='8s' from v0.12.3 search
timeout scoping. PGLite gets the same CTE shape minus the transaction-
scoped GUC (PGLite has no pool).

### searchKeywordChunks (new internal primitive)

Same chunk-grain ranking WITHOUT dedup. Returns raw top-N chunks by
FTS score regardless of page. Used by A2 two-pass retrieval (Layer 7)
as its anchor-discovery primitive — two-pass wants top chunks, not
best-per-page. Most callers should prefer searchKeyword.

### Tests

- test/chunk-grain-fts.test.ts: 11 cases covering migration v28 shape,
  page-grain external contract (dedup preserves invariants), chunk-grain
  primitive (no dedup, score-ordered), and the doc-comment weight-A
  precedence over body weight-B — the A4 ranking win validated today
  even though Layer 5 is what populates doc_comment from AST.

- test/pglite-engine.test.ts existing "tsvector trigger populates
  search_vector on insert" updated: v0.19.0 searched pages.search_vector
  (built from title + compiled_truth) so two-word queries matching
  non-chunk text worked. Cathedral II ranks chunks only — test updated
  to search 'AI agents' which is in the chunk_text directly.

- test/migrations-v0_20_0.test.ts "v27 is highest" relaxed to
  "v27 is the foundation migration; max >= 27" so later layers can
  land migrations without breaking this assertion.

### CI result

2553 tests / 0 fail via `bun test --timeout=60000`, 422s wall time.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 4 (B1) — language manifest foundation

Consolidate the 29-way GRAMMAR_PATHS + parallel DISPLAY_LANG record into
a single LANGUAGE_MANIFEST keyed on SupportedCodeLanguage. Each entry is
a LanguageEntry with { displayName, embeddedPath?, lazyLoader? }.

### Why this matters for Cathedral II

Before: adding a language meant editing two maps (path + display name)
AND adding a new `import G_X from ...` at the top, for every new lang.

After: one manifest entry + one `with { type: 'file' }` import (embedded)
or one registerLanguage() call at boot (lazy). loadLanguage() consults
the manifest uniformly — it doesn't know or care whether a grammar is
embedded in the compiled binary or resolved from node_modules at runtime.

### The 3 extension points

- `embeddedPath` — Bun `with { type: 'file' }` asset. Ships with
  `bun --compile` output; already in place for the 29 core grammars.

- `lazyLoader` — async function returning path or Uint8Array. Used at
  first reference, then cached in `languageCache` like embedded grammars.
  Forward-compat for v0.20.x+ full tree-sitter-wasms (~136 more langs).

- `registerLanguage(lang, entry)` / `unregisterLanguage(lang)` /
  `listRegisteredLanguages()` — runtime registration hook. Layer 9
  (B2 Magika) will wire detection for extensionless files through
  this API. Dynamic registrations win over core manifest on conflict
  so hot-fix overrides during a session work without restart.

### Behavior guarantees preserved

- All 29 v0.19.0 core grammars continue to ship embedded — no binary-size
  growth, no runtime network dependency for the core set.
- `detectCodeLanguage` untouched; its output key still maps 1:1 through
  LANGUAGE_MANIFEST.
- `displayLang()` now derived from the manifest. Chunk headers read
  "[Python]" / "[TypeScript]" / "[Ruby]" just as before — one source of
  truth, manifest-derived.

### Tests (test/language-manifest.test.ts, 8 cases)

- Manifest covers all 29 v0.19.0 languages (typescript/tsx/js/py/rb/go/
  rust/java/c_sharp/cpp/c/php/swift/kotlin/scala/lua/elixir/elm/ocaml/
  dart/zig/solidity/bash/css/html/vue/json/yaml/toml).
- registerLanguage does NOT invoke the lazy loader at registration time
  (proves the loader fires at most on first chunkCodeText() call).
- Dynamic registrations override core manifest entries (hot-fix path).
- unregisterLanguage removes a dynamic entry and clears its parser cache.
- chunkCodeText still loads core grammars (TypeScript / Python / Ruby)
  end-to-end; chunk headers use the manifest displayName ("[Python]",
  not "[python]").

### What's NOT shipped here

Adding the additional ~136 languages from tree-sitter-wasms is
deliberate v0.20.x+ follow-up work. The manifest infrastructure is in
place; expanding coverage is now a data-only PR (one entry per language).

### CI result

2561 tests / 0 fail via `bun test --timeout=60000`, 425s wall time.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 8 D1 — sync --all cost preview + ConfirmationRequired envelope

Closes the v0.19.0 DX review's #1 pain point: "first sync surprise bill."
Before Cathedral II, `gbrain sync --all` on a fresh multi-source brain
could spin up tens of thousands of OpenAI embedding calls before anyone
saw a cost number. Agent callers (OpenClaw, Hermes, etc.) had no way
to gate the operation behind a spend check.

### Behavior

Before `sync --all` touches a single source, walk the working trees of
every registered source with `local_path`, sum tokens per file via the
same cl100k_base tokenizer text-embedding-3-large actually uses, and
compute a USD estimate. Gate on that:

- **TTY + !--json + !--yes** → interactive `[y/N]` prompt.
- **non-TTY OR --json OR piped** → emit `ConfirmationRequired` envelope
  to stdout via the v0.18 `errorFor` builder, exit code 2. Reserves
  exit 1 for runtime errors so agent callers can distinguish
  "awaiting user call" from "something crashed."
- **--yes** → skip prompt entirely. Agent/CI path.
- **--dry-run** → print preview, exit 0 without syncing.
- **--no-embed** → skip the cost gate entirely (user already opted out
  of OpenAI spend; they'll run `embed --stale` later).

### Preview shape

One stderr line or one JSON payload:

    sync --all preview: <N> files across <M> source(s),
    ~<T> tokens, est. $<X> on text-embedding-3-large.

Conservative overestimate: full working-tree content, not just the
incremental diff. A source never embedded before WILL embed everything
on first sync; already-synced sources with small diffs get a ceiling,
not a floor. False-high bias is intentional — users never get
surprised by MORE cost than the preview claimed.

### Files

- `src/core/chunkers/code.ts`: `estimateTokens` now exported (was
  module-private). Same cl100k_base tokenizer, just a public symbol.
- `src/core/embedding.ts`: add `EMBEDDING_COST_PER_1K_TOKENS = 0.00013`
  + `estimateEmbeddingCostUsd(tokens)`. Single source of truth for
  cost math; every cost-preview surface reads this constant, so a
  pricing change is a one-line edit.
- `src/commands/sync.ts`:
  - new `estimateSyncAllCost(sources)` helper walks trees, sums
    tokens per active source, returns breakdown.
  - new `walkSyncableFiles(repo, cb, strategy)` recursive walker.
    Honors the same `isSyncable` rules as the real sync so preview
    and execution agree on scope. Skips hidden dirs, node_modules,
    ops/, and files over 5MB. Best-effort file-read errors don't
    block the preview.
  - new `promptYesNo(question)` readline wrapper — resolves false
    on non-'y' answer OR EOF.
  - `--yes` and `--json` flags parsed at sync argv layer.
  - cost preview runs before the per-source sync loop on `--all`,
    gates via the TTY / --json / --yes / --dry-run matrix above.

### Tests

`test/sync-cost-preview.test.ts` (6 cases):
- EMBEDDING_COST_PER_1K_TOKENS pinned to $0.00013.
- `estimateEmbeddingCostUsd` scales linearly across 0 → 1M tokens.
- `estimateTokens` round-trips (empty → 0, short → <10, 100x text → >50x).

### CI result

2567 tests / 0 fail via `bun test --timeout=60000`, 424s wall time.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 8 D2 — markdown fence extraction

~40% of gbrain's brain is docs + guides + architecture notes with
substantial inline code. In v0.19.0 those fenced code blocks chunked as
prose, so querying "how do we handle errors in TypeScript" ranked
paragraphs ABOUT the import above the actual import example. D2 walks
the marked lexer tokens, extracts each recognized code fence, and
persists them as extra chunks on the parent markdown page with
`chunk_source='fenced_code'` and full code-metadata (language,
symbol_name, symbol_type, start/end line).

### Behavior

In `importFromContent`, after `parseMarkdown` returns compiled_truth,
we additionally run the text through `marked.lexer()` and walk for
`{ type: 'code', lang, text }` tokens. For each:

- Map the fence language tag (`ts`/`typescript`/`js`/...) to a
  pseudo-path (`fence.ts`/`fence.js`/...) so `detectCodeLanguage`
  picks the right grammar.
- Call `chunkCodeText(text, pseudoPath)` — one or more code chunks
  depending on fence size. Tree-sitter-aware chunking means a big
  TS fence splits at function boundaries, not character count.
- Persist each chunk with `chunk_source='fenced_code'`. Extends the
  existing chunk_source enum; schema allows it via the TEXT column.

### Fence-bomb DOS guard

`MAX_FENCES_PER_PAGE = 100` by default, overridable via
`GBRAIN_MAX_FENCES_PER_PAGE` env var. A malicious markdown page with
10K ```ts blocks could otherwise force 10K embedding API calls.
Beyond the cap, remaining fences skip with a one-line console warn
so operators can see the event.

### Per-fence error isolation

Each fence runs through its own try/catch. One malformed fence (e.g.
marked lexer choking on edge-case markdown) doesn't abort the whole
page import — the other fences + the prose chunks from
compiled_truth all still land.

### Recognized fence tags (29 languages + 7 aliases)

ts/typescript, tsx, js/javascript, jsx, py/python, rb/ruby,
go/golang, rs/rust, java, c#/cs/csharp, cpp/c++, c, php, swift,
kt/kotlin, scala, lua, ex/elixir, elm, ml/ocaml, dart, zig,
sol/solidity, sh/bash/shell/zsh, css, html, vue, json, yaml/yml,
toml.

Unknown tag → skipped (no synthetic chunk, no crash). Missing tag
(```\n...\n```) → skipped. Empty body → skipped.

### Collateral fix

`rowToChunk` in src/core/utils.ts now maps the code-chunk metadata
columns (language, symbol_name, symbol_type, start_line, end_line)
+ the v0.20.0 Cathedral II additions (parent_symbol_path,
doc_comment, symbol_name_qualified) out of the DB. Pre-Cathedral II
the code columns were written via upsertChunks but never read back
— caught by the new fence test assertions.

### Tests (test/fence-extraction.test.ts, 7 cases)

- TS fence → language='typescript' chunk
- Python fence → language='python', chunk_text contains def
- Ruby fence → language='ruby'
- Unknown tag (```mermaid, ```unknown-xyz) → no fenced_code chunks
- Missing tag → no fenced_code chunks
- 3 fences on one page, mix of langs → 3+ fenced_code chunks
- Empty fence body → no chunks

### CI result

2574 tests / 0 fail via `bun test --timeout=60000`, 434s wall time.

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

Closes the v0.19.0 Layer 6 doc↔impl order-dependency: when a markdown
guide imports BEFORE the code it cites (common — docs land first, code
sync runs second), the Layer 6 E1 forward-scan calls addLink but its
inner JOIN silently drops the edge because the code page doesn't exist
yet. The guide and the code eventually both exist in the brain, but
the edge never materialized.

### New CLI surface

    gbrain reconcile-links [--dry-run] [--json]

Walks every markdown page, re-runs `extractCodeRefs` on
compiled_truth+timeline, and calls addLink(md, code, ..., 'documents')
+ reverse for each hit. ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING at the links table
makes the operation idempotent — existing edges stay, new edges land.

### Per-lang coverage via extractCodeRefs

Inherits the regex from `src/core/link-extraction.ts` which already
recognizes code paths for 29 extensions (ts/tsx/js/py/rb/go/rust/java/
c#/cpp/c/php/swift/kotlin/scala/lua/elixir/elm/ocaml/dart/zig/sol/sh/
css/html/vue/json/yaml/toml). Fence-extraction (D2) and classifier-
widening (Layer 2) keep this in sync with the chunker's actual reach.

### Why batch over per-import reverse-scan

Codex's two-pass review flagged per-import reverse-scan 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
run on an already-synced brain is one walk, slug-indexed via addLink's
existing lookup. Same correctness, much faster.

### Behavior

- Dry-run: counts refs, attempts = 0, writes nothing.
- auto_link=false in config: returns status='auto_link_disabled' +
  no-op. Users who disabled auto-linking on put_page don't want
  reconcile-links silently re-populating edges either.
- Missing code target: counted as `edgesTargetsMissing`, not thrown.
  The ref exists in the guide, but the code page hasn't been synced
  yet. Re-run after the next code sync to materialize.
- Progress reporter: `reconcile_links.scan` phase, one tick per
  markdown page, with rolling summary `guides/foo (+N refs)` per tick.

### Tests (test/reconcile-links.test.ts, 6 cases)

- Extracts code refs and creates bidirectional edges (guide→code +
  code→guide).
- Idempotent: second run inserts zero new edges.
- Dry-run reports counts without writing.
- Markdown page with no code refs is a no-op.
- Respects auto_link=false.
- Missing code target is counted, not thrown.

### CI result

2580 tests / 0 fail via `bun test --timeout=60000`, 432s wall time.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 12 — CHUNKER_VERSION 3→4 + SP-1 gate

Codex's second-pass review caught that bumping CHUNKER_VERSION alone is a
silent no-op on an unchanged repo: performSync short-circuits at `up_to_date`
before reaching importCodeFile's content_hash check. Layer 12 adds a
sources.chunker_version gate that forces a full re-walk when the version
mismatches, regardless of git HEAD equality.

- CHUNKER_VERSION 3 → 4 (src/core/chunkers/code.ts:99), folded into
  content_hash via v0.19.0 Layer 5 wiring — any bump forces clean re-chunks.
- src/commands/sync.ts: readChunkerVersion/writeChunkerVersion helpers;
  version-mismatch gate runs BEFORE the up_to_date early-return and forces
  a full walk; writeChunkerVersion called after every last_commit anchor.
- test/chunker-version-gate.test.ts: 3 pinning tests (constant value,
  import stability, v27 migration shape).
- test/chunkers/code.test.ts: update v0.19.0 CHUNKER_VERSION=3 assertion
  to Cathedral II v0.20.0 CHUNKER_VERSION=4.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 13 (E2) — reindex-code + migration orchestrator

Ships the user-facing explicit-backfill path. v0.19.0 → v0.20.0 brains get
CHUNKER_VERSION 3→4 rolled over automatically via Layer 12's gate on next
sync. Users who want the benefits NOW (before their next sync) run
`gbrain reindex-code --yes`.

- New src/commands/reindex-code.ts. runReindexCode(engine, opts) walks code
  pages from the DB in batches of 100 (Finding 4.4 OOM protection), reads
  compiled_truth + frontmatter.file, re-runs importCodeFile. --dry-run
  reports cost + token count without importing. --force bypasses
  importCodeFile's content_hash early-return. --source filters to one
  sources row. Pages without frontmatter.file fail cleanly (counted, not
  thrown). runReindexCodeCli parses argv, wires the D1 cost-preview gate
  (TTY prompt or ConfirmationRequired envelope for non-TTY/JSON), delegates.
- src/core/import-file.ts: importCodeFile gains opts.force flag. When
  true, skips the content_hash === hash early-return so a paranoid full
  reindex always re-chunks + re-embeds even when content hasn't changed.
- src/cli.ts: register 'reindex-code' case + CLI_ONLY entry.
- src/commands/migrations/v0_20_0.ts: orchestrator with 3 phases
  (schema → backfill_prompt → verify). Phase B prints the two backfill
  choices directly (automatic via sync vs immediate via reindex-code).
  Follows v0.12.2/v0.18.1 idempotent-resumable pattern.
- src/commands/migrations/index.ts: registers v0_20_0 after v0_18_1.
- skills/migrations/v0.20.0.md: agent-facing post-upgrade instructions.
- test/reindex-code.test.ts: 5 cases (count, dry-run, walk+failures,
  empty brain, batch pagination).
- test/migration-orchestrator-v0_20_0.test.ts: 5 cases (registry wiring,
  feature-pitch content, __testing exports, dry-run skips, is-latest).
- test/apply-migrations.test.ts: extend skippedFuture pins with 0.20.0.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 10 partial (C1 + C2) — query --lang / --symbol-kind

Ships the cheap half of the C tier: language + symbol-kind filters on
hybrid search. The content_chunks.language and content_chunks.symbol_type
columns have existed since v0.19.0 Layer 5 (code chunker populates both);
Layer 10 exposes them as filter flags on the 'query' operation.

The expensive half (C3 --near-symbol, C4 code-callers, C5 code-callees) is
blocked on Layer 5 A1 edge extractor — those need the code_edges_chunk +
code_edges_symbol tables populated. They ship in a follow-up.

- src/core/pglite-engine.ts: searchKeyword / searchKeywordChunks /
  searchVector all accept opts.language + opts.symbolKind. Filters added
  via parameterized $N indices; unknown values return zero results
  (no false positives).
- src/core/postgres-engine.ts: same three methods, same filters, threaded
  through the postgres.js sql-fragment pattern. Honors SET LOCAL
  statement_timeout discipline.
- src/core/search/hybrid.ts: threads opts.language + opts.symbolKind into
  per-engine searchOpts so filters fire at SQL level (not post-filtered
  in-memory).
- src/core/operations.ts: query op params gain lang + symbol_kind entries.
  Handler maps them into hybridSearch opts.language / opts.symbolKind.
- src/cli.ts: updated --help CODE INDEXING section to list the new flags
  + reconcile-links + reindex-code commands.
- test/search-lang-symbol-kind.test.ts: 9 cases (no filter, lang-only,
  symbolKind-only, combined AND, searchKeywordChunks variant, unknown
  lang/kind return zero, operation schema check).

Full CI: 2352 pass / 250 skip / 0 fail / 6216 expect() / 432s.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 6 (A3) — parent-scope + nested-chunk emission

Ships the chunk-granularity change codex called out in the second-pass
review. Before Cathedral II, `export class BrainEngine { m1() {} m2() {} }`
emitted ONE chunk for the whole class. Retrieval returned the entire
class body for a symbol-specific query like "how does searchKeyword
work" — the agent had to re-read the whole thing. A3 extends the
chunker to emit each method as its own chunk carrying
`parentSymbolPath: ['BrainEngine']`, with a `(in BrainEngine)` suffix in
the header so the embedding captures scope context. The class-level
parent chunk still ships (slim body: declaration line + member digest)
so class-level queries still hit something.

Recursive expansion: Ruby `module Admin { class UsersController { def
render } }` emits 3 chunks — Admin (parent=[]), UsersController
(parent=[Admin]), render (parent=[Admin, UsersController]).

- src/core/chunkers/code.ts:
  - CodeChunkMetadata gains `parentSymbolPath?: string[]`.
  - NESTED_EMIT_CONFIG map per language (TS, TSX, JS, Python, Ruby,
    Rust impl blocks, Java class/interface/record). Maps parent types
    (class_declaration / class_definition / module / impl_item) to
    child types (method / method_definition / function_definition /
    singleton_method / constructor_declaration).
  - findNestableParent unwraps TS export_statement to reach the inner
    class_declaration — the export wrapper was a classic gotcha.
  - emitNestedScoped: recursive, builds full parent-chain path, pushes
    a slim scope-header chunk for each parent level + leaf chunks for
    methods. Handles module → class → method chains.
  - buildChunk emits "(in ClassName.method)" header suffix when
    parentSymbolPath is non-empty.
  - mergeSmallSiblings now bails on any file that has parent-scoped
    chunks. Methods emitted by A3 are intentionally small and
    individually addressable; merging them would erase the scope
    context Layer 6 just established.
- src/core/import-file.ts: importCodeFile passes parent_symbol_path
  from chunker metadata into ChunkInput so it lands in content_chunks.
- src/core/pglite-engine.ts + src/core/postgres-engine.ts: upsertChunks
  extends the column list to persist parent_symbol_path (TEXT[]),
  doc_comment (TEXT), symbol_name_qualified (TEXT). All three existed
  as schema columns from Layer 1 but the writers weren't plumbed yet.
  ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE includes all three so re-imports refresh
  metadata correctly.
- test/parent-scope.test.ts: 9 cases covering TypeScript class method
  expansion, Python class, Ruby module+class, top-level function
  passthrough, and round-trip through upsertChunks to verify text[]
  persistence.

Full CI: 2361 pass / 250 skip / 0 fail / 6270 expect() / 439s.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 5 (A1) — edge extractor + qualified names (8 langs)

The 10x leap. v0.19.0 shipped symbol-column filtering and could find "the
definition of X"; v0.20.0 Layer 5 captures who CALLS X. Walk the tree-sitter
tree during chunking, harvest call-site edges, persist to code_edges_symbol
with the callee's short-name as to_symbol_qualified. `getCallersOf("helper")`
now returns every call site, ready for Layer 7 two-pass retrieval to expand
into structural neighbors.

Scope: precision 80, recall 99. We don't try to resolve receiver types at
capture time (obj.method() stores "method", not "ObjClass.method"). That
receiver-type inference is a future optimization; the edges are captured,
which is the whole point. Cross-file resolution is also deferred — all
Layer 5 edges land unresolved in code_edges_symbol.

Per-language shipped: TypeScript, TSX, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, Go, Rust,
Java. ~85% of real brain code. Other languages chunk normally, edges just
empty.

- src/core/chunkers/qualified-names.ts (new): per-language delimiter
  conventions. Ruby `Admin::UsersController#render` (instance) vs Python
  `admin.users.UsersController.render` vs Rust `users::UsersController::render`.
  Unknown languages dot-join as fallback (never drop).
- src/core/chunkers/edge-extractor.ts (new): iterative AST walk (no
  recursion — tree-sitter trees can be deep, stack overflow risk on
  generated code). Per-language CALL_CONFIG maps node types to callee
  field names. extractCalleeName unwraps member_expression, scoped_identifier,
  field_expression to reach the innermost identifier. findChunkForOffset
  maps a byte offset to the innermost chunk for from_chunk_id resolution.
- src/core/chunkers/code.ts: CodeChunkMetadata gains
  symbolNameQualified. buildChunk folds in qualified-name from parents +
  name. New chunkCodeTextFull API returns (chunks, edges); chunkCodeText
  stays as back-compat wrapper.
- src/core/import-file.ts: call chunkCodeTextFull, build ChunkInput list
  with symbol_name_qualified, after upsertChunks run findChunkForOffset
  to map call-site byte offsets to resolved chunk IDs, call
  deleteCodeEdgesForChunks (codex SP-2 inbound invalidation) then
  addCodeEdges. Edge persistence is best-effort — failure logs a warn
  but does not fail the import.
- src/core/pglite-engine.ts + src/core/postgres-engine.ts: implement the
  5 stub methods. addCodeEdges splits resolved vs unresolved by
  to_chunk_id presence, inserts with ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING. getCallersOf
  / getCalleesOf UNION code_edges_chunk + code_edges_symbol (codex 1.3b:
  no promotion, UNION-on-read forever). getEdgesByChunk honors direction
  {in, out, both}. deleteCodeEdgesForChunks wipes both tables in both
  directions (codex SP-2).
- test/qualified-names.test.ts: 9 cases (TS/Ruby instance method/Python/
  Rust/Java/unknown-lang fallback).
- test/edge-extractor.test.ts: 11 cases (per-language call capture +
  findChunkForOffset mapping + unknown-language empty-list).
- test/code-edges.test.ts: 7 cases (addCodeEdges insert + idempotency,
  getCallersOf short-name match, resolved path, getEdgesByChunk
  direction filters, deleteCodeEdgesForChunks both-direction wipe).

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 10 rest (C4 + C5) — code-callers / code-callees CLI

Exposes Layer 5's call-graph edges as user-facing agent commands. The
existing code-def / code-refs pair answers "where is X defined?" and
"where is X referenced?"; Layer 10 rest adds "who CALLS X?" and "what
does X CALL?" — the structural questions v0.19.0 couldn't answer.

Conventions follow the code-def / code-refs precedent:
  - Auto-JSON on non-TTY (gh-CLI convention)
  - StructuredAgentError envelope on usage / runtime failure
  - Exit 2 on UsageError, exit 1 on runtime
  - --all-sources to widen beyond the anchor's source; default source-scoped

- src/commands/code-callers.ts (new) — wraps engine.getCallersOf.
- src/commands/code-callees.ts (new) — wraps engine.getCalleesOf.
- src/cli.ts — register both cases, update CLI_ONLY list, update --help
  CODE INDEXING section to list the two new commands.
- test/code-callers-cli.test.ts — 2 cases (module exports, callable).

The --near-symbol / --walk-depth flags on query ship with Layer 7
(A2 two-pass retrieval) in a follow-up layer commit.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 7 (A2) — two-pass structural retrieval

The capstone of the retrieval-side upgrade. Layer 5 captured edges at
chunk time; Layer 7 uses them. Given a query like "how does
searchKeyword handle N+1", standard hybrid search returns the function
body; A2 expansion additionally surfaces:
  - the 3 functions that call it (1-hop)
  - the 2 functions it calls (1-hop)
  - the anchor set's neighbors' neighbors (2-hop, optional)

All ranked together with 1/(1+hop) score decay. One walk. Code-aware
brain, not RAG-over-code.

Default OFF per codex F5. Activation:
  - `--walk-depth N` (1 or 2) walks N hops from the anchor set.
  - `--near-symbol <qualified-name>` adds chunks matching the symbol's
    qualified name as extra anchors, enabling "expand around this
    specific symbol" without a keyword query.

Caps (codex F5):
  - depth capped at 2 (max blast radius).
  - neighbor cap 50 per hop (high-fan-out protection: console.log has
    100k callers and should not flood the result set).
  - per-page dedup cap lifts from 2 → min(10, walkDepth × 5) when
    walking — structural neighbors from the same class are the point.

- src/core/search/two-pass.ts (new): expandAnchors walks
  code_edges_chunk + code_edges_symbol, hydrating unresolved edges by
  matching symbol_name_qualified on lookup. hydrateChunks fetches
  SearchResult rows for expanded chunk IDs.
- src/core/search/hybrid.ts: gate the two-pass step on opts.walkDepth
  > 0 OR opts.nearSymbol set. Expansion runs before dedup so neighbors
  survive; dedup cap widens when walking. Best-effort — expansion
  failure falls back to base hybrid retrieval.
- src/core/operations.ts: query op params gain near_symbol (string) +
  walk_depth (number). Handler threads both into hybridSearch opts.
- test/two-pass.test.ts: 8 cases (walkDepth 0/1/2/5-clamp, nearSymbol
  anchoring, hydrateChunks round-trip, operation schema).

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 11 (E1) — BrainBench code sub-category tests

Pins the retrieval-quality behaviors Layer 5 and Layer 6 added, so any
accidental regression surfaces on CI rather than silently eroding search
quality.

Sub-categories:
  - call_graph_recall — importCodeFile captures calls edges
    end-to-end; getCallersOf + getCalleesOf round-trip through real
    edge extraction; re-import idempotency via codex SP-2 per-chunk
    invalidation.
  - parent_scope_coverage — nested methods persist parent_symbol_path
    through the upsertChunks path; qualified symbol names resolve
    correctly for nested declarations.

doc_comment_matching is deferred: the chunk-grain FTS trigger from
Layer 1b already weights doc_comment 'A', but chunker doc_comment
extraction (A4 full implementation) is a follow-up. The column exists,
the ranking is ready — waiting on extraction.

type_signature_retrieval deferred with C6 to v0.20.1 per plan.

- test/cathedral-ii-brainbench.test.ts (new): 6 cases covering the
  two sub-categories against real PGLite + importCodeFile.

* feat: v0.20.0 Cathedral II Layer 14 — release (CHANGELOG + TODOS + version bump)

The capstone commit. Ships v0.20.0 — Code Cathedral II — with a full
release-summary in CHANGELOG.md covering the 13 layers that landed
(Layer 9 / Magika deferred to v0.20.1 per plan risk gate), migration
guidance under "To take advantage of v0.20.0", and itemized changes
grouped by layer with real numbers.

- VERSION: 0.19.0 → 0.20.0
- package.json: 0.19.0 → 0.20.0
- CHANGELOG.md: new [0.20.0] entry with release-summary (two-line
  bold headline, lead paragraph, numbers-that-matter table with
  before/after delta, per-language call-capture table, "what this
  means for builders" closer), "To take advantage of v0.20.0"
  section with verify commands + issue-reporting template, and the
  full itemized changes section grouped by layer (1 / 2 / 3 / 4 /
  5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 10 / 11 / 12 / 13 / 9-deferred). Credits 2 codex
  passes + eng + ceo reviews — 16 cross-model findings absorbed.
- TODOS.md: retire the 4 v0.19.0 follow-ups (all landed in v0.20.0
  Layer 8 + Layer 10). Add 4 new Cathedral II follow-ups:
  - B2 Magika (Layer 9 deferred)
  - A4 full doc_comment extraction at chunk time
  - C6 code-signature
  - Cross-file edge resolution (Layer 5 precision upgrade)

* fix(import-file): tolerate missing pages in doc↔impl linking

importCodeFile / importFromContent's E1 doc↔impl forward-link path was
calling tx.addLink() expecting the pre-v0.18 silent-no-op behavior on
missing pages. Master tightened addLink in postgres-engine.ts to throw
when either endpoint is missing — which is correct for explicit callers,
but the doc↔impl case is intentionally order-agnostic: a guide that
cites src/core/sync.ts can land before the code repo syncs (and vice
versa).

Result on CI: 21 E2E tests failed in test/e2e/mechanical.test.ts because
the fixture corpus has prose pages citing code paths the corpus doesn't
include, so each importFromContent threw "addLink failed: page X or Y
not found" and aborted before downstream assertions could run.

Fix: wrap each tx.addLink call (forward + reverse edge) in try/catch.
Match the existing pattern in src/commands/extract.ts:547 and
src/core/operations.ts:453,470 — both run try { addLink } catch { skip }
for exactly this reason. Missing edges land later via
`gbrain reconcile-links` (Layer 8 D3), which forward-scans every
markdown page and idempotently inserts the edges that resolve.

Comment refresh: the old comment ("addLink's inner SELECT naturally
drops edges to non-existent pages") was true pre-v0.18; updated to
reflect the current throwing behavior + the reconcile-links recovery
path.

* fix(test/migrate): bump v8/v9 dedup-regression budget 5s → 90s

The v8 (links_dedup) + v9 (timeline_dedup_index) regression tests time
the FULL `runMigrations` chain from version 7 → LATEST_VERSION. Their
5s budget was sized when the chain ended at v8/v9 themselves and v8 +
the helper-btree-index O(n log n) work were the dominant cost.

Cathedral II added v27 (TSVECTOR column + GIN index + plpgsql trigger
compile + 2 new tables w/ FK CASCADE) and v28 (UPDATE backfill of
search_vector). On PGLite WASM in CI, the full v7 → v28 chain now
takes ~30-40s — schema-creation overhead, not v8/v9 dedup itself.
Locally the chain ran in 2.75s; CI's container cold-start hit 33s.

The original O(n²) regression v8 had would have taken MINUTES on 1000
duplicate rows (the original incident was multi-minute, not multi-tens-
of-seconds). Bumping the budget to 90s preserves the regression gate
("if v8 reverts to O(n²), this test catches it because the run blows
past the budget by orders of magnitude") while accommodating Cathedral
II's longer schema chain.

CI: 33758ms (v8 test) + 33343ms (v9 test) → both under 90s. The 5s
assertion was failing them, not the test runner timeout.

* fix(migrate): v29 enables RLS on code_edges_chunk + code_edges_symbol

The two new tables added by v27 (Cathedral II foundation) shipped without
RLS enabled. The E2E test "RLS is enabled on every public table (no
hardcoded allowlist)" caught this — Supabase exposes the public schema
via PostgREST so any table without RLS is anon-readable. Same security
gap as the v0.18.1 RLS hardening pass that v24 closed for the original
10 gbrain-managed tables.

Three CI failures fixed by this migration:
  1. "RLS is enabled on every public table" — direct fail on the new
     tables.
  2. "GBRAIN:RLS_EXEMPT comment with valid reason exempts a non-RLS
     public table" — was failing because doctor saw the unrelated
     code_edges tables ALSO un-RLS'd, so the exempt-comment fixture
     wasn't the only no-RLS table and doctor stayed in fail status.
  3. "gbrain doctor exits 0 on healthy DB" — same cause, doctor was
     emitting a fail check for the missing-RLS tables on every healthy
     run.

Pattern: matches v24 exactly. DO $$ block with BYPASSRLS guard so a
non-bypass session can't accidentally lock itself out of its own data;
RAISE EXCEPTION on guard fail leaves schema_version at the prior value
so the next initSchema retries. Postgres-only via sqlFor — PGLite
doesn't enforce RLS the same way and the E2E gate runs only against
real Postgres.

* fix(test/e2e): v24 self-heals — assert version >= 24, not exactly 24

Pre-existing test bug surfaced when the E2E job ran on the Cathedral II
branch (and would have surfaced on master too once anyone ran the Tier 1
Mechanical job). The test rolls schema_version back to 23, runs init,
then asserts the version becomes exactly '24'. The intent was to prove
v24 didn't crash on missing budget_* tables — not to pin a specific
final version.

But initSchema runs every pending migration. With v25 + v26 (v0.19.0)
and now v27 + v28 + v29 (v0.21.0 Cathedral II) shipped, init advances
schema_version to LATEST_VERSION (currently 29) regardless of where it
started. The exact-match `'24'` assertion has been wrong since v25
landed; only the lack of an E2E run on master CI hid it.

Fix: parse the final version as int and assert `>= 24`. Same intent
(prove v24 ran cleanly + didn't roll back), forward-compatible with
future schema growth.

* docs(README): add "Using gbrain with GStack" — 5 code-search magical moments

Discoverability hint for engineering agents running on GStack. Cathedral
II (v0.21.0) shipped call-graph edges + two-pass retrieval, but a
GStack agent running /investigate or /review won't reach for them
unless someone tells it gbrain has these surfaces. The new subsection
slots between Remote MCP and the Skills index, lists the 5 commands
verbatim (code-callers, code-callees, code-def, code-refs, query
--near-symbol --walk-depth), and links to the v0.21.0 CHANGELOG entry
for context.

Tradeoff acknowledged: gbrain README serves both standalone and
agent-platform users, so the GStack section is kept tight (16 lines)
and slotted with the other agent-integration paths rather than at the
top.

* docs: regenerate llms.txt + llms-full.txt for v0.21.0

The build-llms regen-drift guard caught that the committed llms files
were stale after the README "Using gbrain with GStack" addition + the
v0.21.0 CHANGELOG promotion. Running `bun run build:llms` rebuilds both
deterministically from llms-config.ts so the test passes.

No source content changed in this commit — just the generator output.

8b3c24c891 v0.20.0 feat: extract BrainBench to sibling gbrain-evals repo (#195)
* fix(link-extraction): v0.10.5 drive works_at + advises accuracy on rich prose

Extends inferLinkType patterns to cover rich-prose phrasings that miss with
v0.10.4 regexes. Targets the residuals called out in TODOS.md: works_at at
58% type accuracy, advises at 41%.

WORKS_AT_RE additions:
- Rank-prefixed: "senior engineer at", "staff engineer at", "principal/lead"
- Discipline-prefixed: "backend/frontend/full-stack/ML/data/security engineer at"
- Possessive time: "his/her/their/my time at"
- Leadership beyond "leads engineering": "heads up X at", "manages engineering at",
  "runs product at", "leads the [team] at"
- Role nouns: "role at", "position at", "tenure as", "stint as"
- Promotion patterns: "promoted to staff/senior/principal at"

ADVISES_RE additions:
- Advisory capacity: "in an advisory capacity", "advisory engagement/partnership/contract"
- "as an advisor": "joined as an advisor", "serves as technical advisor"
- Prefixed advisor nouns: "strategic/technical/security/product/industry advisor to|at"
- Consulting: "consults for", "consulting role at|with"

New EMPLOYEE_ROLE_RE page-level prior: fires when the page describes the subject
as an employee (senior/staff/principal engineer, director, VP, CTO/CEO/CFO) at
some company. Biases outbound company refs toward works_at when per-edge context
is possessive or narrative without an explicit work verb. Scoped to person -> company
links only. Precedence: investor > advisor > employee (investors often hold board
seats which would otherwise mis-classify as advise/works_at).

ADVISOR_ROLE_RE broadened from "full-time/professional/advises multiple" to catch
any page that self-identifies the subject as an advisor ("is an advisor",
"serves as advisor", possessive "her advisory work/role/engagement").

Tests: 65 pass (16 new v0.10.5 coverage tests + 4 regression guards against
v0.10.4 tightenings). Templated benchmark still 88.9% type_accuracy (10/10 on
works_at and advises). Rich-prose measurement requires the multi-axis report
upgrade (next commit) to validate retroactively.

* feat(eval): type-accuracy runner on rich-prose corpus + wire into all.ts

New Category 2 in BrainBench: per-link-type accuracy measured directly on the
240-page rich-prose world-v1 corpus. Distinct from Cat 1's retrieval metrics,
this measures whether inferLinkType() correctly classifies extracted edges
when the prose varies (the 58% works_at and 41% advises residuals that v0.10.5
regexes targeted).

How it works:
  1. Loads all pages from eval/data/world-v1/
  2. Derives GOLD expected edges from each page's _facts metadata
     (founders → founded, investors → invested_in, advisors → advises,
      employees → works_at, attendees → attended, primary_affiliation +
      role drives person-page outbound type)
  3. Runs extractPageLinks() on each page → INFERRED edges
  4. Per (from, to) pair, compares inferred type vs gold type
  5. Emits per-link-type table: correct / mistyped / missed / spurious +
     type accuracy + recall + precision + strict F1 (triple match)
  6. Full confusion matrix rows=gold, cols=inferred

v0.10.5 validation on 240-page corpus (up from pre-v0.10.5 baselines):
  - works_at:    58%  → 100.0%   (+42 pts) — 10/10 correct, 0 mistyped
  - advises:     41%  → 88.2%    (+47 pts) — 15/17 correct
  - attended:    —    → 100.0%   131/134 recall
  - founded:    100%  → 100.0%   40/40
  - invested_in: 89%  → 92.0%    69/75
  - Overall:    88.5% → 95.7%    type accuracy (conditional on edge found)

Strict F1 overall: 53.7%. Lower because the _facts-based gold set only
captures core relationships; rich prose extracts many peripheral mentions
(190 spurious "mentions" edges) that aren't bugs but are correctly-typed
prose references without a _facts counterpart. Spurious counts are signal
for future type-precision tuning, not failure.

Wired into eval/runner/all.ts as Cat 2 so every full benchmark run includes
the rich-prose type accuracy table alongside retrieval metrics.

* feat(eval): Phase 2 adapter interface + EXT-1 ripgrep+BM25 baseline

Phase 2 credibility unlock: BrainBench now compares gbrain to external
baselines on the same corpus and queries. Transforms the benchmark from
internal ablation ("gbrain-graph beats gbrain-grep") to category comparison
("gbrain-graph beats classic BM25 by 32 pts P@5"). This is the #1 fix
from the 4-review arc — addresses Codex's core critique that v1's
before/after was self-referential.

Added:
  eval/runner/types.ts                      — Adapter interface (v1.1 spec)
  eval/runner/adapters/ripgrep-bm25.ts      — EXT-1 classic IR baseline
  eval/runner/adapters/ripgrep-bm25.test.ts — 11 unit tests, all pass
  eval/runner/multi-adapter.ts              — side-by-side scorer

Adapter interface (eng pass 2 spec):
  - Thin 3-method Strategy: init(rawPages, config), query(q, state), snapshot(state)
  - BrainState is opaque to runner (never inspected)
  - Raw pages passed in-memory; gold/ never crosses adapter boundary
    (structural ingestion-boundary enforcement)
  - PoisonDisposition enum reserved for future poison-resistance scoring

EXT-1 ripgrep+BM25:
  - Classic Lucene-variant IDF + k1/b tuned at standard 1.5/0.75
  - Title tokens double-weighted for entity-page slug-match bias
  - Stopword filter, alphanumeric tokenization, stable lexicographic tie-break
  - Pure in-memory inverted index — no external deps, ~100 LOC core

First side-by-side results on 240-page rich-prose corpus, 145 relational queries:

| Adapter       | P@5    | R@5    | Correct top-5 |
|---------------|--------|--------|---------------|
| gbrain-after  | 49.1%  | 97.9%  | 248/261       |
| ripgrep-bm25  | 17.1%  | 62.4%  | 124/261       |
| Delta         | +32.0  | +35.5  | +124          |

gbrain-after is the hybrid graph+grep config from PR #188. Ripgrep+BM25 is
a genuinely strong classic-IR baseline (BM25 is what Lucene/Elasticsearch
ship). gbrain's ~+32-point lead on relational queries reflects real work
by the knowledge graph layer: typed links + traversePaths surface the
correct answers in top-K that BM25 only pulls in via partial-text overlap.

Next in Phase 2: EXT-2 vector-only RAG + EXT-3 hybrid-without-graph
adapters. Both plug into the same Adapter interface.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(eval): Phase 2 EXT-2 vector-only RAG adapter

Second external baseline for BrainBench. Pure cosine-similarity ranking
using the SAME text-embedding-3-large model gbrain uses internally —
apples-to-apples on the embedding layer so any gbrain lead reflects the
graph + hybrid fusion, not a better embedder.

Files:
  eval/runner/adapters/vector-only.ts      ~130 LOC
  eval/runner/adapters/vector-only.test.ts 6 unit tests (cosine math)

Design:
  - One vector per page (title + compiled_truth + timeline, capped 8K chars).
  - No chunking (intentional; chunked vector RAG would be EXT-2b later).
  - No keyword fallback (that's EXT-3 hybrid-without-graph).
  - Embeddings in batches of 50 via existing src/core/embedding.ts (retry+backoff).
  - Cost on 240 pages: ~$0.02/run.

Three-adapter side-by-side on 240-page rich-prose corpus, 145 relational queries:

| Adapter       | P@5    | R@5    | Correct top-5 |
|---------------|--------|--------|---------------|
| gbrain-after  | 49.1%  | 97.9%  | 248/261       |
| ripgrep-bm25  | 17.1%  | 62.4%  | 124/261       |
| vector-only   | 10.8%  | 40.7%  |  78/261       |

Interesting finding: vector-only scores WORSE than BM25 on relational queries
like "Who invested in X?" — exact entity match matters more than semantic
similarity for these templates. BM25 nails the entity-name term; vector-only
returns topically-similar-but-not-mentioning pages. This is the known failure
mode of pure-vector RAG on precise relational/identity queries. Real-world
vector RAG systems always add keyword fallback; EXT-3 (hybrid-without-graph)
will be that fairer comparator.

gbrain's lead widens in vector-only comparison: +38.4 pts P@5, +57.2 pts R@5.
The graph layer is doing the heavy lifting for relational traversal; pure
vector RAG can't express "traverse 'attended' edges from this meeting page."

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(eval): Phase 2 EXT-3 hybrid-without-graph adapter — graph isolated

Third and closest-to-gbrain external baseline. Runs gbrain's full hybrid
search (vector + keyword + RRF fusion + dedup) WITHOUT the knowledge-graph
layer. Same engine, same embedder, same chunking, same hybrid fusion —
only traversePaths + typed-link extraction turned off.

This is the decisive comparator for "does the knowledge graph do useful
work?" Same everything-else, only graph differs. Any lead gbrain-after has
over EXT-3 is 100% attributable to the graph layer.

Files:
  eval/runner/adapters/hybrid-nograph.ts   — ~110 LOC

Implementation:
  - New PGLiteEngine per run; auto_link set to 'false' (belt).
  - importFromContent() used instead of bare putPage() so chunks +
    embeddings get populated (hybridSearch needs them).
  - NO runExtract() call — typed links/timeline stay empty (suspenders).
  - hybridSearch(engine, q.text) answers every query. Aggregate chunks
    to page-level by best chunk score.

FOUR-adapter side-by-side on 240-page rich-prose corpus, 145 relational queries:

| Adapter         | P@5    | R@5    | Correct/Gold |
|-----------------|--------|--------|--------------|
| gbrain-after    | 49.1%  | 97.9%  | 248/261      |
| hybrid-nograph  | 17.8%  | 65.1%  | 129/261      |
| ripgrep-bm25    | 17.1%  | 62.4%  | 124/261      |
| vector-only     | 10.8%  | 40.7%  |  78/261      |

The headline delta nobody can hand-wave away:
  gbrain-after → hybrid-nograph  = +31.4 P@5, +32.9 R@5
  hybrid-nograph → ripgrep-bm25  = +0.7 P@5,  +2.7 R@5

Hybrid search (vector+keyword+RRF) over pure BM25 gains ~1 point. The
knowledge graph layer over hybrid gains ~31 points. The graph is doing
the work; adding it to a retrieval stack is what actually moves the needle
on relational queries. The vector/keyword/BM25 debate is a footnote.

Timing: hybrid-nograph init is ~2 min (embeds 240 pages once); query loop
is fast. gbrain-after is ~1.5s total because traversePaths doesn't need
embeddings. Runs at ~$0.02 Opus-equivalent in embedding cost.

* feat(eval): Phase 2 query validator + Tier 5 Fuzzy + Tier 5.5 synthetic + N=5 tolerance bands

Closes multiple Phase 2 items in one commit since they form a cohesive
package: query schema enforcement + new query tiers + per-query-set
statistical rigor.

Added:
  eval/runner/queries/validator.ts               — hand-rolled Query schema validator
  eval/runner/queries/validator.test.ts          — 24 unit tests, all pass
  eval/runner/queries/tier5-fuzzy.ts             — 30 hand-authored Tier 5 Fuzzy/Vibe queries
  eval/runner/queries/tier5_5-synthetic.ts       — 50 SYNTHETIC-labeled outsider-style queries (author: "synthetic-outsider-v1")
  eval/runner/queries/index.ts                   — aggregator + validateAll()

Modified:
  eval/runner/multi-adapter.ts                   — N=5 runs per adapter (BRAINBENCH_N override), page-order shuffle, mean±stddev reporting

Query validator (hand-rolled, no zod dep to match gbrain codebase style):
  - Temporal verb regex enforces as_of_date (per eng pass 2 spec):
    /\\b(is|was|were|current|now|at the time|during|as of|when did)\\b/i
  - Validates tier enum, expected_output_type enum, gold shape per type
  - gold.relevant must be non-empty slug[] for cited-source-pages queries
  - abstention requires gold.expected_abstention === true
  - externally-authored tier requires author field
  - batch validation catches duplicate IDs

Tier 5 Fuzzy/Vibe (30 queries, hand-authored):
  - Vague recall: "Someone who was a senior engineer at a biotech company..."
  - Trait-based: "The engineer who pushed back on microservices"
  - Cultural/epithet: "Who is known as a 'systems builder' in security?"
  - Abstention bait: "Which Layer 1 project did the crypto guy leave?" (prose
    mentions but never names; good systems abstain)
  - Addresses Codex's circularity critique — vague queries where graph-heavy
    systems shouldn't inherently win.

Tier 5.5 Synthetic Outsider (50 queries, AI-authored placeholder):
  - Clearly labeled author: "synthetic-outsider-v1"
  - Phrasing variety not in the 4 template families:
    * fragment style ("crypto founder Goldman Sachs background")
    * polite/natural ("Can you pull up what we have on...")
    * comparison ("What is the difference between X and Y?")
    * follow-up ("And who else advises Orbit Labs?")
    * typos/misspellings ("adam lopez bioinformatcis")
    * similarity ("Find me someone like Alice Davis...")
    * imperative ("Pull up Alice Davis")
  - Real Tier 5.5 from outside researchers supersedes synthetic via
    PRs to eval/external-authors/ (docs ship in follow-up commit).

N=5 tolerance bands:
  - Default N=5, override via BRAINBENCH_N env var (e.g. BRAINBENCH_N=1 for dev loops)
  - Per-run seeded Fisher-Yates shuffle of page ingest order (LCG seed = run_idx+1)
  - Surfaces order-dependent adapter bugs (tie-break-by-first-seen etc.)
  - Reports mean ± sample-stddev per metric
  - "stddev = 0" is honest signal that the adapter is deterministic, not a bug.
    LLM-judge metrics (future) will naturally produce non-zero stddev.

Validation: all 80 Tier 5 + 5.5 queries pass validateAll(). 24 validator
unit tests pass.

Next commit: world.html contributor explorer (Phase 3).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(eval): Phase 3 world.html explorer + eval:* CLI surface

Contributor DX magical moment. Static HTML explorer renders the full
canonical world (240 entities) as an explorable tree, opens in any browser,
zero install. Every string HTML-entity-encoded (XSS-safe — direct vuln
class per eng pass 2, confidence 9/10).

Added:
  eval/generators/world-html.ts         — renderer (~240 LOC; single-file
                                          HTML with inline CSS + minimal JS)
  eval/generators/world-html.test.ts    — 16 tests (XSS + rendering correctness)
  eval/cli/world-view.ts                — render + open in default browser
  eval/cli/query-validate.ts            — CLI wrapper for queries/validator
  eval/cli/query-new.ts                 — scaffold a query template

Modified:
  package.json                          — 7 new eval:* scripts
  .gitignore                            — ignore generated world.html

package.json scripts shipped:
  bun run test:eval                 all eval unit tests (57 pass)
  bun run eval:run                  full 4-adapter N=5 side-by-side
  bun run eval:run:dev              N=1 fast dev iteration
  bun run eval:world:view           render world.html + open in browser
  bun run eval:world:render         render only (CI-friendly, --no-open)
  bun run eval:query:validate       validate built-in T5+T5.5 (or a file path)
  bun run eval:query:new            scaffold a new Query JSON template
  bun run eval:type-accuracy        per-link-type accuracy report

XSS safety:
  escapeHtml() encodes the 5 critical chars (& < > " '). Tested directly
  with representative Opus-generated attacks:
    <img src=x onerror=alert('xss')>  → &lt;img src=x onerror=alert(&#39;xss&#39;)&gt;
    <script>fetch('/steal')</script>  → &lt;script&gt;fetch(&#39;/steal&#39;)&lt;/script&gt;
  Ledger metadata (generated_at, model) also escaped — covers the less
  obvious attack surface where Opus could emit tag-like content into the
  metadata file.

world.html structure:
  - Left rail: entities grouped by type with counts (companies, people,
    meetings, concepts), alphabetical within type
  - Right pane: per-entity cards with title + slug + compiled_truth +
    timeline + canonical _facts as collapsed JSON
  - URL fragment deep-links (#people/alice-chen)
  - Sticky rail on desktop; responsive stack on mobile
  - Vanilla JS for active-link highlighting on scroll (no framework)

Generated file: ~1MB for 240 entities (full prose). Gitignored; rebuild
with `bun run eval:world:view`. Regeneration is ~50ms.

Contributor TTHW (Tier 5.5 query authoring):
  1. bun run eval:world:view                         # see entities
  2. bun run eval:query:new --tier externally-authored --author "@me"
  3. edit template with real slug + query text
  4. bun run eval:query:validate path/to/file.json
  5. submit PR

* fix(eval): teardown PGLite engines so bun run eval:run exits 0

The multi-adapter runner left PGLite engines alive after each run.
GbrainAfterAdapter and HybridNoGraphAdapter both instantiate a
PGLiteEngine in init() but never disconnect it; Bun's shutdown path
exits with code 99 when embedded-Postgres workers outlive main().

Added optional `teardown?(state)` to the Adapter interface, implemented
it on both engine-backed adapters, and call it from scoreOneRun after
the N=5 loop. ripgrep-bm25 and vector-only hold no DB resources and
don't need a teardown.

Verified: gbrain-after, hybrid-nograph, ripgrep-bm25, vector-only all
exit 0 at N=1. Full test:eval passes (57 tests). No metric change.

* docs(bench): 2026-04-19 multi-adapter scorecard

Reproducibility run of the 4-adapter side-by-side at commit b81373d
(branch garrytan/gbrain-evals). N=5, 240-page corpus, 145 relational
queries from world-v1.

Headline: gbrain-after 49.1% P@5 / 97.9% R@5. hybrid-nograph 17.8% /
65.1%. ripgrep-bm25 17.1% / 62.4%. vector-only 10.8% / 40.7%. All
adapters deterministic (stddev = 0 across the 5 runs per adapter).

Matches the scorecard in eval/README.md byte-for-byte for the three
deterministic adapters; hybrid-nograph matches within tolerance bands.

* docs(bench): 2026-04-19 gbrain v0.11.1 vs v0.12.1 regression comparison

Runs the same eval harness against two gbrain src/ trees on the same
240-page corpus and 145 queries. Patches the v0.11 copy's gbrain-after
adapter to use getLinks/getBacklinks (v0.11 has no traversePaths)
with identical direction+linkType semantics.

gbrain-after P@5 22.1% -> 49.1% (+27 pts); R@5 54.6% -> 97.9% (+43
pts); correct-in-top-5 99 -> 248 (+149). hybrid-nograph flat at 17.8%
/ 65.1% on both (v0.12 didn't touch hybridSearch / chunking).

Driver is extraction quality, not graph presence: v0.12 emits 499
typed links (v0.11: 136, x3.7) and 2,208 timeline entries (v0.11: 27,
x82) on the same 240 pages. Sharpens the April-18 "graph layer does
the work" claim -- on v0.11 that architecture only beat hybrid-nograph
by 4.3 points; the 31-point lead in the multi-adapter scorecard comes
from graph + high-quality extract in combination.

* feat(eval): BrainBench v1 portable JSON schemas + gold templates

Adds the v1→v2 contract boundary for BrainBench. 6 JSON schemas at
eval/schemas/ pin the shape of every artifact a stack must emit to be
scorable: corpus-manifest, public-probe (PublicQuery with gold stripped),
tool-schema (12 read + 3 dry_run tools, 32K tool-output cap), transcript,
scorecard (N ∈ {1, 5, 10}), evidence-contract (structured judge input).

8 gold file templates at eval/data/gold/ scaffold the sealed qrels,
contradictions, poison items, and citation labels. Empty-but-valid
skeletons; Day 3b fills them with real content once the amara-life-v1
corpus generates.

48 tests validate schema syntax, $schema/$id/title/type headers,
round-trip stability, and cross-schema coherence (new Page types in
manifest enum, tool counts, token cap, N enum).

When v2 ports to Python + Inspect AI + Docker, these schemas are the
boundary. Same fixtures, same tool contracts, zero rework.

* feat(eval): amara-life-v1 skeleton + Page.type enum for email/slack/cal/note

Deterministic procedural generator for the twin-amara-lite fictional-life
corpus (BrainBench v1 Cat 5/8/9/11 target). 15 contacts picked from
world-v1, 50 emails + 300 Slack messages across 4 channels + 20 calendar
events + 8 meeting transcripts + 40 first-person notes. Mulberry32 PRNG
gives byte-identical output under reseed.

Plants 10 contradictions + 5 stale facts + 5 poison items + 3 implicit
preferences at deterministic positions. Fixture_ids are unique across the
corpus so gold/contradictions.json + gold/poison.json + gold/implicit-
preferences.json can cross-reference by stable ID.

PageType extended in both src/core/types.ts and eval/runner/types.ts to
include email | slack | calendar-event | note (+ meeting on the production
side). src/core/markdown.ts inferType() heuristics updated for the new
one-slash slug prefixes (emails/em-NNNN, slack/sl-NNNN, cal/evt-NNNN,
notes/YYYY-MM-DD-topic, meeting/mtg-NNNN).

17 tests cover counts (50/300/20/8/40), perturbation counts (exact
10/5/5/3), seed determinism + divergence, slug regex conformance (matches
eval/runner/queries/validator.ts:131 one-slash rule), unique fixture_ids,
amara-in-every-email invariant, calendar dtstart < dtend, and Amara-is-
attendee on every meeting.

* feat(eval): amara-life-gen.ts with structured cache key + $20 cost gate

Opus prose expansion of the amara-life-v1 skeleton. Per-item structured
cache key = sha256({schema_version, template_id, template_hash, model_id,
model_params, seed, item_spec_hash}). Prompt-template tweak changes
template_hash; only those items regenerate. Schema bump changes
schema_version; everything invalidates cleanly. Interrupted runs resume
from the last cached item; zero re-spend.

Cost-gated at $20 hard-stop with Anthropic input/output pricing tracking.
Dry-run mode (--dry-run) executes the full pipeline with stub bodies for
smoke-testing the I/O layout without LLM spend. --max N caps items per
type for debugging. --force ignores cache.

Writes per-format outputs under eval/data/amara-life-v1/:
  inbox/emails.jsonl (one email per line with body_text appended)
  slack/messages.jsonl (one message per line with text appended)
  calendar.ics (RFC-5545 VEVENT format, templated — no LLM)
  meetings/<id>.md (transcript with YAML frontmatter)
  notes/<YYYY-MM-DD-topic>.md (first-person journal)
  docs/*.md (6 reference docs, templated — no LLM)
  corpus-manifest.json (per eval/schemas/corpus-manifest.schema.json,
    including per-item content_sha256 and generator_cache_key)

Perturbation hints (contradiction, stale-fact, poison, implicit-
preference) flow through the prompt so Opus weaves the specific claim
into each item's body. Poison items are hand-crafted to include
paraphrased prompt-injection attempts (not literal 'IGNORE ALL
PREVIOUS' — defense is the structured-evidence judge contract at
Day 5, not regex redaction).

New package.json scripts:
  eval:generate-amara-life       # real run (~$12 Opus estimated)
  eval:generate-amara-life:dry   # smoke test, zero spend

test:eval extended to include test/eval/. 10 cache-key tests cover
determinism, invalidation across every field of the key, canonical JSON
stability under object-key reorder, and per-skeleton-item spec-hash
uniqueness (50 distinct hashes for 50 distinct emails).

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.15.0)

Resets package.json from stale 0.13.1 to 0.15.0 (matches VERSION).
v0.14.0 shipped with the stale package.json version; this sync catches
that up and moves to v0.15.0 in one step.

* docs: update CLAUDE.md + README + eval/README for v0.15.0 BrainBench

CLAUDE.md: adds a full BrainBench section to the Key Files list — 14 new
entries covering eval/README.md, multi-adapter.ts, types.ts (with new
PublicPage/PublicQuery), adapters/, queries/, type-accuracy.ts,
adversarial.ts, all.ts, world.ts/gen.ts, world-html.ts, amara-life.ts,
amara-life-gen.ts, schemas/, data/world-v1/, data/gold/,
data/amara-life-v1/, docs/benchmarks/, and test/eval/. Adds 3 new
test/eval/ lines to the unit-tests catalog.

eval/README.md: file tree updated to reflect v0.15 additions —
data/amara-life-v1/, data/gold/, schemas/, generators/amara-life.ts +
amara-life-gen.ts, runner/all.ts + adversarial.ts.

README.md: updates hero benchmark numbers (L7 intro + L353 mid-page)
from v0.10.5 PR #188 numbers (R@5 83→95, P@5 39→45) to current v0.12.1
4-adapter numbers (P@5 49.1% · R@5 97.9% · +31.4 pts vs hybrid-nograph).
Adds the v0.11→v0.12 regression comparison as the secondary reference.
Deeper-section tables (L422+) labeled "BrainBench v1 (PR #188)" are
preserved as historical data.

CHANGELOG is untouched — /ship already wrote the v0.15.0 entry.
TODOS.md is untouched — Cat 5/6/8/9/11 remain open (only foundations
shipped in v0.15.0; Cat runners ship in v1 Complete follow-ups).

* feat(eval): Day 4 — pdf-parse + flight-recorder + tool-bridge (dry_run + expand:false)

Three infrastructure modules for BrainBench v1 Complete Cats 5/8/9/11.

**eval/runner/loaders/pdf.ts** — Thin pdf-parse wrapper. Lazy import keeps
pdf-parse out of the module-load path (avoids library debug-mode side
effects). Size cap (50MB default), encryption detection, structured error
classes (PdfEncryptedError, PdfTooLargeError, PdfParseError). Only Cat 11
multimodal will import this; production bundle never sees pdf-parse.

**eval/runner/tool-bridge.ts** — Maps 12 read-only operations from
src/core/operations.ts to Anthropic tool definitions + adds 3 dry_run write
tools. Three structural invariants enforced:

  1. No hidden LLM calls. `operations.query` defaults expand=true which
     routes through expansion.ts → Haiku. Bridge strips `expand` from the
     query tool's input schema AND executor hard-sets expand:false. Zero
     nested Haiku calls in any agent trace.

  2. Mutating ops throw ForbiddenOpError. put_page, add_link, delete_page,
     etc. are rejected by name. Agents record intent via dry_run_put_page /
     dry_run_add_link / dry_run_add_timeline_entry which persist to the
     flight-recorder without mutating the engine. This is how Cat 8's
     back_link_compliance + citation_format metrics measure anything with
     a read-only tool surface.

  3. Poison tagged by the bridge, not the judge. Every tool result is
     scanned for slugs matching gold/poison.json fixtures. Matched
     fixture_ids flow into tool_call_summary.saw_poison_items for the
     structured-evidence judge contract. Judge never reads raw tool
     output — Section-3 defense against paraphrased prompt injections
     (poison payloads never reach the judge model at all).

32K-token cap (~128K chars) with "…[truncated]" suffix.

**eval/runner/recorder.ts** — Per-run flight-recorder bundle emitter. Full
6-artifact bundle (transcript.md, brain-export.json, entity-graph.json,
citations.json, scorecard.json, judge-notes.md) when the adapter provides
an AdapterExport; 3-artifact fallback (transcript + scorecard +
judge-notes) otherwise. Atomic writes via tmp+rename. Collision-safe:
duplicate directory names get incremental -2, -3 suffix. `safeStringify`
handles circular references without throwing and JSON-serializes
Float32Array embeddings.

**package.json:** adds pdf-parse@2.4.5 as a devDependency. Scoped to eval/
use only; production gbrain binary unaffected.

**Tests:** 63 new — 30 tool-bridge, 21 recorder, 12 pdf-loader. All pass.
Fake engine uses a Proxy with `__default__` fallback so poison-matching
tests don't have to mock the exact engine method name that each operation
calls (some route via searchKeyword, others via getPage — proxy handles
both uniformly).

Total eval suite now: 132 pass, 0 fail, 923 expect() calls.

* feat(eval): Day 5 — agent adapter + judge with structured evidence contract

Two modules that together wire Cat 8 / Cat 9 / Cat 5 end-to-end scoring.

**eval/runner/judge.ts** — Haiku 4.5 via tool-use `score_answer`. Input is
the structured JudgeEvidence contract (fix #16 from the plan's codex
review): probe + final_answer_text + evidence_refs + tool_call_summary +
ground_truth_pages + rubric. Raw tool output NEVER reaches the judge —
that's the Section-3 defense against paraphrased prompt-injection payloads
in gold/poison.json.

Retry policy: one retry on malformed tool_use response. If the second
attempt is still malformed, score the probe as `judge_failed` (all scores
0, verdict=fail) so the run still completes.

Aggregation: weighted mean across rubric criteria. Canonical thresholds
(pass ≥3.5, partial 2.5-3.5, fail <2.5) — judge can propose a verdict but
the computed verdict from the weighted mean is what the scorecard records.
This prevents the model from inflating or deflating its own verdict.

Score values are clamped to 0-5 on parse even if the model returns out of
range. `assertNoRawToolOutput(evidence)` is a regression guard that
returns the list of forbidden fields (tool_result, raw_transcript, etc.)
if any leak into the evidence contract.

**eval/runner/adapters/claude-sonnet-with-tools.ts** — The agent adapter.
Implements `Adapter` interface minimally: `init()` spins up PGLite and
seeds it, `query()` throws because the adapter is Cat 8/9-only and emits
a final-answer text, not a RankedDoc[]. Retrieval scorecard stays at 4
adapters.

`runAgentLoop(probeId, text, state, config)` drives the multi-turn loop:
Sonnet → tool_use → tool-bridge.executeTool → tool_result → back to
Sonnet. Turn cap 10. max_tokens 1024. System prompt (brain-first iron
law, citation format, amara context) is cached via cache_control.
Exponential backoff on rate-limit errors (1s, 2s, 4s).

Emits a `Transcript` per eval/schemas/transcript.schema.json — consumed
directly by recorder.ts for the flight-recorder bundle.

`brain_first_ordering` classifies Cat 8's flagship metric: did the agent
call search/get_page BEFORE producing the final answer? The `no_brain_calls`
case (agent answers from general knowledge without ever hitting the brain)
is the compliance failure to surface.

ForbiddenOpError + UnknownToolError from the bridge are caught in the
agent loop and surfaced as tool_result with is_error=true — keeps the
loop going and preserves full audit trail for the judge.

**Tests (35 new):** judge (23) — happy path, retry, fallback, evidence
contract sanitization, rendered prompt does not contain raw tool_result
text, verdict thresholds, score clamping, weighted mean with mixed
weights, parseToolUse rejects malformed input. agent-adapter (12) —
Adapter.query() throws, init() seeds PGLite, end-to-end tool loop with
stubbed Sonnet, turn cap exhaustion, mutating-op rejection surfaces as
tool_result error, extractSlugs regex.

All 12 agent tests take ~23s because PGLite runs 13 schema migrations per
test; the alternative of shared-engine-across-tests was rejected so each
test is isolated.

Total eval suite now: 167 pass, 0 fail.

* feat(eval): Day 6 — adversarial-injections + Cat 6 prose-scale + Cat 11 multi-modal

Three modules that together cover BrainBench v1 Cat 6 (prose-scale
extraction fidelity) and Cat 11 (multi-modal ingest fidelity).

**eval/runner/adversarial-injections.ts** — 6 deterministic content
transforms shared by Cat 10 (adversarial.ts, 22 hand-crafted cases) and
Cat 6 (prose-scale variants). Each injection produces a modified content
string + a structured GoldDelta describing what the extractor MUST and
MUST NOT produce. Kinds:
  - code_fence_leak — fake [X](people/fake) inside ``` fence, must NOT extract
  - inline_code_slug — `people/fake` in backticks, must NOT extract
  - substring_collision — "SamAI" near real `people/sam`, exactly one link
  - ambiguous_role — "works with" vs "works at", downgrade type to mentions
  - prose_only_mention — strip markdown link syntax, bare name → mentions only
  - multi_entity_sentence — pack 4+ entities into one clause, extract all

Mulberry32 PRNG keeps variant generation deterministic under fixed seed.
Codex flagged the original plan's wording ("extract injection engine from
adversarial.ts") as overstated — adversarial.ts is a static case list,
not a reusable engine. This module is NEW code.

**eval/runner/cat6-prose-scale.ts** — Runner. Loads world-v1, applies all
6 injection kinds to sampled base pages (default 50 variants per kind ×
6 kinds = 300 variants), runs extractPageLinks on each, compares to gold
delta. Emits per-kind + overall metrics (precision, recall, F1,
code_fence_leak_rate, substring_fp_rate, pages_with_links_coverage,
mean_links_per_page). **v1 verdict is always "baseline_only"** — no
gating threshold per codex fix #9 (current extractor residuals make
>0.80 unreachable; v1 records a baseline, regression guard triggers on
drop below it).

**eval/runner/cat11-multimodal.ts** — PDF + HTML + audio runners.
Fixtures load from eval/data/multimodal/<modality>/fixtures.json
manifests; each modality skips gracefully when manifest missing or
(audio) when neither GROQ_API_KEY nor OPENAI_API_KEY is set. Metrics:
  - PDF: char-level similarity via Levenshtein + optional entity_recall
  - HTML: word-recall over normalized tokens (multiset semantics)
  - Audio: WER (word error rate) via Levenshtein on word sequences
Fixtures are NOT committed; a future eval:fetch-multimodal script will
download them hash-verified from public sources (arXiv CC-licensed
papers, Wikipedia CC-BY-SA, Common Voice CC0).

Injectable audio transcriber (`opts.transcribe`) means tests don't need
GROQ/OpenAI keys — stubbed transcriptions exercise the WER math path
directly.

**Tests (60 new):** adversarial-injections (19) — per-kind assertions +
dispatcher coverage + slug regex conformance; cat6 (12) — variant
determinism, scoreVariant shape, aggregate per-kind + overall metrics,
corpus resolver slug rules; cat11 (29) — charSimilarity / wordRecall /
wer math, htmlToText strips scripts + decodes entities, HTML modality
with real fixtures, audio modality gracefully skips without key + uses
stub transcriber correctly.

All 60 tests pass in 48ms + 41ms.
Total eval suite now: 227 pass, 0 fail.

* feat(eval): Day 7 — Cat 5 provenance runner + structured classify_claim judge

**eval/runner/cat5-provenance.ts** — BrainBench Cat 5 scoring. Samples
claims from gbrain brain-export and classifies each against its source
material via a dedicated Haiku judge (classify_claim tool with a
three-label enum: supported | unsupported | over-generalized).

Separate from judge.ts by design: Cat 5 is a single three-way
classification per claim, not a weighted rubric. Rather than overload
judge.ts with a mode switch, Cat 5 has its own tool definition
(CLASSIFY_CLAIM_TOOL) and prompt. The retry-once pattern, $20 cost gate
semantics, and structured parsing are mirrored from judge.ts so failures
look the same across Cats.

Metric: `citation_accuracy` = fraction where predicted label equals
gold expected_label. Threshold (informational): >0.90 per design-doc
METRICS.md. v1 ships with `enableThreshold: false` so the verdict is
always baseline_only — we don't have hand-authored gold claims yet, and
codex flagged that threshold gating should wait until the amara-life-v1
corpus + gold file authoring lands in Day 3b.

runCat5 uses a bounded-concurrency worker pool (default 4) to respect
Haiku rate limits across 100+ claim batches. Evidence pages are looked
up by slug from a caller-provided pagesBySlug map — missing pages don't
crash, they just pass an empty source list to the judge (correct
behavior for genuinely unsupported claims).

**Tests (23):** classifyClaim happy/retry/fallback paths with stubbed
Haiku, aggregate accuracy math, threshold gating (pass/fail vs
baseline_only), runCat5 concurrency + missing-page handling,
renderClaimPrompt embeds claim + sources correctly, parseClassification
rejects invalid enum values + plain-text responses.

Total eval suite now: 250 pass, 0 fail.

* feat(eval): Day 8 — Cat 8 skill compliance + Cat 9 end-to-end workflows

**eval/runner/cat8-skill-compliance.ts** — Deterministic, judge-free Cat 8
scoring. Replays inbound signals through the agent adapter (Day 5) and
extracts four iron-law metrics directly from the tool-bridge state:

  - brain_first_compliance: agent called search/get_page BEFORE producing
    its final answer. Non-compliance = hallucinating from general knowledge.
  - back_link_compliance: every dry_run_put_page intent has at least one
    markdown [Name](slug) back-link in its compiled_truth.
  - citation_format: timeline entries use canonical `- **YYYY-MM-DD** |
    Source — Summary`; long final answers cite at least one slug.
  - tier_escalation: simple probes use light tooling (≥1 brain call);
    complex probes require ≥2 brain calls or a dry_run write when
    expects_dry_run_write is set.

No judge call required — everything is computable from
`tool_bridge_state.made_dry_run_writes` + `count_by_tool` + final_answer
regex. Fast, deterministic, reproducible.

Bounded concurrency (p-limit style) worker pool at default 4 to keep
Sonnet rate limits comfortable across 100-probe batches.

**eval/runner/cat9-workflows.ts** — Rubric-graded Cat 9. 5 canonical
workflows (meeting_ingestion, email_to_brain, daily_task_prep, briefing,
sync) × ~10 scenarios each. Each scenario runs through the agent adapter,
then judge.ts scores the answer against a per-scenario rubric.

`buildEvidence(scenario, agentResult, pagesBySlug)` composes the
JudgeEvidence contract: resolves ground_truth_slugs to full
GroundTruthPage[] from a slug-map, pulls tool_call_summary directly from
tool_bridge_state (no raw tool_result content — Section-3 defense),
attaches rubric from the scenario.

Per-workflow rollup: each workflow gets its own pass_rate so the verdict
can fail one workflow without failing the whole Cat. Overall verdict
requires every populated workflow's pass_rate ≥ threshold (default 0.80)
when enableThreshold=true.

Both Cats default to verdict=baseline_only in v1 per codex fix #9: real
thresholds return after 10-probe Haiku-vs-hand-score calibration (κ > 0.7)
runs against the Day 3b amara-life-v1 corpus.

**Tests (23):** Cat 8 per-metric scorer unit tests covering every branch
(brain_first ordering, back-link compliance on mixed writes, long vs
short answer citation requirement, tier escalation for simple/complex/
writey probes, finalAnswerCiteCount dedups across syntaxes). Cat 9
buildEvidence contract shape — evidence_refs flow from agent, missing
slugs skip gracefully, no raw_transcript/tool_result leakage to judge.
Cat 9 runCat9 integration with stubbed agent + mixed-verdict judge
produces fractional pass rates correctly.

Total eval suite now: 273 pass, 0 fail.

* feat(eval): Day 9 — sealed qrels via PublicPage + PublicQuery at adapter boundary

Codex fixes #1, #2, #3 from the plan's outside-voice review. Enforcement
shifts from SOFT-VIA-TYPE-COMMENT to SOFT-VIA-SANITIZED-OBJECT. Hard
enforcement via process isolation waits for BrainBench v2 Docker sandbox.

**eval/runner/types.ts** additions:
  - `PublicPage = Pick<Page, 'slug' | 'type' | 'title' | 'compiled_truth' |
    'timeline'>` — the exact 5 fields adapters should see. No _facts.
    No frontmatter (a known hiding spot for accidental gold leaks).
  - `sanitizePage(p: Page): PublicPage` — returns a NEW object with the 5
    fields only. Cannot be bypassed by `(page as any)._facts` because the
    field does not exist on the sanitized object.
  - `PublicQuery = Omit<Query, 'gold'>` — strips the gold field.
  - `sanitizeQuery(q: Query): PublicQuery` — enumerates public fields
    explicitly (not spread+delete) so no prototype weirdness leaves gold
    reachable.

**eval/runner/multi-adapter.ts** — scoreOneRun now calls sanitizePage /
sanitizeQuery before passing to adapter.init / adapter.query. The scorer
retains the full Query shape (including gold.relevant) for precision /
recall computation. Adapter signatures unchanged — the sealing is at the
OBJECT level, not the type level. This keeps existing adapters
(ripgrep-bm25, vector-only, hybrid-nograph, gbrain-after) binary-compatible.
Verified: no existing adapter reads q.gold or page._facts, so the change
is safe without further adapter updates.

**test/eval/sealed-qrels.test.ts** (17 tests):
  - sanitizePage strips _facts + frontmatter + arbitrary hidden keys
  - Output has exactly the 5 public keys (deep introspection)
  - Proxy tripwire simulates a malicious adapter: any access to _facts or
    gold throws `sealed-qrels violation`
  - sanitizeQuery retains optional fields (as_of_date, tags, author,
    acceptable_variants, known_failure_modes) but omits undefined ones
  - Honest documentation of the seal's limits: filesystem bypass and
    Proxy attacks would still work in v1; Docker isolation (v2) is the
    real enforcement

Every existing eval test still passes (273 before + 17 sealed-qrels = 290).

Total eval suite now: 290 pass, 0 fail.

* feat(eval): Day 10 — all.ts rewrite + llm-budget + BrainBench N tiers

Final wiring of BrainBench v1 Complete. all.ts now orchestrates the full
Cat catalog (1-12) via a mix of subprocess dispatch (Cats 1, 2, 3, 4, 6,
7, 10, 11, 12 — standalone runners with CLI entry points) and
programmatic invocation (Cats 5, 8, 9 — require runtime inputs that
can't come via CLI flags). Subprocess Cats run concurrently under a
p-limit(2) bound to cap peak memory around ~800MB (two PGLite instances
at ~400MB each).

Cats 5/8/9 show as "programmatic" in the report with a one-line
reference to their `runCatN({...})` harness API. They're deliberately
skipped from the master runner because their inputs (claim catalog,
probe catalog, scenario catalog, pre-seeded agent state, evidence
pagesBySlug) are task-specific and assembled at the caller.

**eval/runner/all.ts** — rewritten:
  - CATEGORIES is a tagged union of SubprocessCategory | ProgrammaticCategory
  - runCatSubprocess spawns Bun with pipe'd stdout/stderr, 10-min timeout
    per Cat (124 exit + SIGTERM on timeout; no hung subprocesses)
  - runConcurrently is a bounded worker pool preserving input order
  - buildReport emits the full markdown with per-Cat elapsed times,
    migration-noise filter, and a separate programmatic-only section
  - Honors BRAINBENCH_N (1/5/10 for smoke/iteration/published),
    BRAINBENCH_CONCURRENCY (default 2),
    BRAINBENCH_LLM_CONCURRENCY (default 4, consumed by llm-budget)

**eval/runner/llm-budget.ts** — shared LLM rate-limit semaphore. A full
N=10 published scorecard makes ~900 Anthropic calls (150 Cat 8/9 probes
× N=10 + 100 Cat 5 claims × N=10). Without coordination, concurrent
adapters trigger 429s on per-minute limits.

  - LlmBudget class: acquireSlot/releaseSlot + withLlmSlot(fn) wrapper
    that releases on success AND throw (try/finally)
  - getDefaultLlmBudget() singleton reads BRAINBENCH_LLM_CONCURRENCY,
    falls back to 4 on missing/garbage values
  - capacity enforced ≥1 (rejects 0/negative)
  - Double-release is a no-op (guards against upstream double-call bugs)
  - Active + waiting counts exposed for observability / tests

**package.json** scripts:
  - eval:brainbench           — default N=5 iteration
  - eval:brainbench:smoke     — N=1 for fast iteration
  - eval:brainbench:published — N=10 for committed baselines
  - eval:cat6 / eval:cat11    — individual new subprocess Cats

**Tests (24):** CATEGORIES catalog enforces the exact Cat-number partition
(subprocess: 1,2,3,4,6,7,10,11,12; programmatic: 5,8,9). runConcurrently
respects the cap (observable via peak in-flight counter), preserves input
order under non-uniform delays, handles empty input. LlmBudget enforces
capacity, releases on throw, honors env var, rejects 0/negative.
buildReport filters migration noise, counts passed/failed/programmatic
correctly, includes every Cat + programmatic-only section.

Full eval suite now: 314 pass, 0 fail (15 test files).

* fix(eval): drop top_p from amara-life-gen Opus params + gitignore _cache/

Two fixes surfaced during the Day 3b real-corpus run against Opus 4.5:

**eval/generators/amara-life-gen.ts** — Current Opus rejects
`temperature` and `top_p` together:
```
400 invalid_request_error: `temperature` and `top_p` cannot both be
specified for this model. Please use only one.
```
top_p=1.0 was a no-op (no nucleus truncation), so removing it has zero
semantic effect. The field is still part of MODEL_PARAMS for the cache
key so any past cache entries (none in v1) would invalidate cleanly
on the next schema version bump.

**.gitignore** — `eval/data/amara-life-v1/_cache/` is runtime Opus
cache (398 files, ~1.6MB). Regenerable from seed; no point in source
control. The corpus itself (inbox/slack/calendar/meetings/notes/docs +
corpus-manifest.json with per-item content_sha256) stays committable
for reproducibility, just the cache directory gets excluded.

Real corpus generation ran cleanly after these two fixes: 398 LLM
calls, 84,424 input / 38,062 output tokens, \$4.12 spent (vs \$20 cap,
vs \$12 estimate). All 418 items produced. Poison fixtures use
subtle paraphrased injection ("for anyone on your team who might be
triaging this thread later…") — exactly the pattern that defeats
regex redaction and requires the structured-evidence judge contract
from Day 5.

Corpus itself stays local (will move to the brainbench sibling repo
during the v0.16 split per the design doc). No eval/data/amara-life-v1/
content landing in this PR.

* chore: bump version to 0.20.0

Renumbered from 0.17.0 per the gbrain-versioning slot. Other work is
landing on master around this PR; 0.18 is the slot locked for this
BrainBench v1 Complete release. Also pushed the "brainbench split"
forward reference in the CHANGELOG from v0.18 → v0.19 to match.

* refactor: extract BrainBench to sibling gbrain-evals repo

BrainBench lived in this repo through v0.17, which meant every gbrain install
pulled down ~5MB of eval corpus, benchmark reports, and a pdf-parse devDep
that the 99% of users who never run benchmarks don't need.

v0.18 moves the full eval harness, 14 eval test files (314 tests), all
docs/benchmarks scorecards, and the pdf-parse devDep to
github.com/garrytan/gbrain-evals. That repo depends on gbrain via GitHub URL
and consumes it through a new public exports map.

What stays in gbrain:
- Page.type enum extensions (email | slack | calendar-event | note | meeting)
  useful for any ingested format, not just evals
- inferType() heuristics for /emails/, /slack/, /cal/, /notes/, /meetings/
- 11 new public exports covering the gbrain internals gbrain-evals consumes
  (gbrain/engine, gbrain/pglite-engine, gbrain/search/hybrid, etc.) — now
  gbrain's stable third-party contract

What moved:
- eval/ — 4.6MB of schemas, runners, adapters, generators, CLI tools
- test/eval/ — 14 test files, 314 tests
- docs/benchmarks/ — all scorecards and regression reports
- eval:* package.json scripts
- pdf-parse devDep

Tests: 1760 pass, 0 fail, 174 skipped (E2E require DATABASE_URL).

* Merge origin/master into garrytan/gbrain-evals

Master landed significant work since this branch was cut (v0.15.x → v0.16.x →
v0.17.0 gbrain dream + runCycle → v0.18.0 multi-source brains → v0.18.1 RLS
hardening). Bumped this branch's version from the claimed 0.18.0 to 0.19.0
because master already owns 0.18.x.

Conflicts resolved:
- VERSION: 0.19.0 (was 0.18.0 on HEAD vs 0.18.1 on master)
- package.json: 0.19.0, kept all 11 eval-facing exports, merged master's
  typescript devDep + postinstall script + test script (typecheck added)
- src/core/types.ts: union of both PageType additions. Master had added
  `meeting | note`; this branch added `email | slack | calendar-event`
  for inbox/chat/calendar ingest. Final enum carries all five.
- CHANGELOG.md: renumbered the BrainBench-extraction entry to 0.19.0 and
  placed it above master's 0.18.1 RLS entry. Tweaked copy ("In v0.17 it
  lived inside this repo" → "Previously it lived inside this repo") to
  stop implying a specific version that never shipped.
- CLAUDE.md: adjusted "BrainBench in a sibling repo" heading from
  (v0.18+) → (v0.19+).
- docs/benchmarks/2026-04-18-minions-vs-openclaw-production.md:
  resolved modify-vs-delete conflict in favor of delete (the extraction).
- scripts/llms-config.ts: dropped the docs/benchmarks/ entry (directory
  no longer exists here; lives in gbrain-evals).
- llms.txt / llms-full.txt: regenerated after the config change.
- bun.lock: accepted master's (master already dropped pdf-parse as a
  drive-by; aligned with our removal).

Tests: 2094 pass, 236 skip, 18 fail. Spot-checked failures — build-llms,
dream, orphans tests all pass in isolation. Failures reproduce only under
full-suite parallel load and are pre-existing master flakiness (matches the
graph-quality flake noted in the earlier summary). Not merge-introduced.

* chore: bump to v0.20.0

Master is now at v0.18.2 (migration hardening + RLS + multi-source brains).
BrainBench extraction ships as v0.20.0 to leave v0.19 free for any in-flight
work on other branches.

* ci: remove eval-tests workflow (moved to gbrain-evals)

The Eval tests workflow ran `bun run eval:query:validate`, `test:eval`, and
`eval:world:render` — all three scripts moved to the gbrain-evals repo when
BrainBench was extracted in v0.20.0. The workflow has been failing on master
since the split because the scripts no longer exist here.

Eval CI now runs from gbrain-evals's own workflows.

* fix(tests): bump PGLite hook timeouts to 60s for parallel-load stability

Six test files spin up PGLite + 20 migrations + git repos in beforeEach/
beforeAll hooks. Under 136-way parallel test file execution, bun's default
5s hook timeout wasn't enough, producing 18 flaky failures that only
reproduced under full-suite parallel load (all 6 files passed in isolation).

Root cause: PGLite.create() + initSchema() takes ~3-5s under idle load, but
under 136 concurrent WASM instantiations the OS thrashes and hooks stall
well past 5s. The bunfig.toml `timeout = 60_000` applies to TESTS, not HOOKS
— bun requires per-hook timeouts as the third beforeEach/beforeAll argument.

Files touched (hook timeouts added, no test logic changed):
- test/dream.test.ts           — 5 describe blocks × before/afterEach
- test/orphans.test.ts         — 1 beforeEach + afterEach
- test/core/cycle.test.ts      — shared beforeAll + afterAll
- test/brain-allowlist.test.ts — beforeAll + afterAll
- test/extract-db.test.ts      — beforeAll + afterAll
- test/multi-source-integration.test.ts — beforeAll + afterAll

Results: 2317 pass / 0 fail (was 2253 pass / 18 fail).

* test: coverage for inferType() BrainBench corpus dirs

Closes the 1 gap surfaced by Step 7 coverage audit. 9 table-driven
assertions covering the new Page.type branches:
  emails/*.md, email/*.md       -> 'email'
  slack/*.md                    -> 'slack'
  cal/*.md, calendar/*.md       -> 'calendar-event'
  notes/*.md, note/*.md         -> 'note'
  meetings/*.md, meeting/*.md   -> 'meeting'

The fixtures use realistic paths from the amara-life-v1 corpus in the
sibling gbrain-evals repo (em-0001, sl-0037, evt-0042, mtg-0003) so the
test doubles as a contract check between the two repos.

* docs(TODOS): mark BrainBench Cats 5/6/8/9/11 + v0.10.5 inferLinkType as completed

All five BrainBench categories shipped in v0.20.0 (to the gbrain-evals
sibling repo). v0.10.5 inferLinkType regex expansion shipped in-tree.

Remaining P1 BrainBench work: Cat 1+2 at full scale (2-3K pages) —
currently 240 pages in world-v1 corpus.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: sync CLAUDE.md + polish CHANGELOG voice for v0.20.0

CLAUDE.md: add v0.19 commands to key-files list (skillify, skillpack,
routing-eval, filing-audit, skill-manifest, resolver-filenames);
add 8 new test files + openclaw-reference-compat E2E to test index;
repoint the release-summary template's benchmark source from
`docs/benchmarks/[latest].md` to `gbrain-evals/docs/benchmarks/` since
those files now live in the sibling repo.

CHANGELOG voice polish for v0.20.0: replace em dashes with periods,
parens, or ellipses per project style guide. No content changes.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: regenerate llms-full.txt after CLAUDE.md + CHANGELOG edits (fixes CI)

The v0.20.0 doc-sync commit (9e567bb) added 7 new v0.19 modules to the
CLAUDE.md Key Files index and polished CHANGELOG voice. Both are
includeInFull: true inputs to llms-full.txt but the generator wasn't
re-run, so the drift-detection guard (test/build-llms.test.ts) failed CI.

One-line fix: regenerate. No content changes beyond what the two source
docs already carry.

246cd8be46 v0.19.1 — smoke-test skillpack (post-restart health + auto-fix) (#369)
* feat: smoke-test skillpack — post-restart health checks + auto-fix

Adds `gbrain smoke-test` CLI command that runs 8 health checks after
container restart, auto-fixes known issues, and reports results.

Built-in tests:
  1. Bun runtime (auto-install if missing)
  2. GBrain CLI loads (auto-reinstall deps)
  3. GBrain database connection (doctor health score)
  4. GBrain worker process (auto-start)
  5. OpenClaw Codex plugin Zod CJS (auto-reinstall broken zod@4)
  6. OpenClaw gateway responding
  7. Embedding API key present
  8. Brain repo exists

User-extensible: drop scripts in ~/.gbrain/smoke-tests.d/*.sh

Includes SKILL.md with full documentation, pattern for adding tests,
and known-issue database (e.g. Zod core.cjs publish bug).

Designed to run from OpenClaw bootstrap hooks so every container
restart automatically verifies and repairs the environment.

* fix: register smoke-test in RESOLVER + add required SKILL sections

Fixes the 7 failing unit tests + 1 failing Tier 1 E2E:

- `skills/RESOLVER.md`: add smoke-test under Operational (mirrors
  skillpack-check placement). Fixes resolver_health check failure which
  cascaded into skillpack-check tests, doctor exit code, and the E2E
  'gbrain doctor exits 0 on healthy DB' assertion.

- `skills/smoke-test/SKILL.md`: add `## Anti-Patterns` and
  `## Output Format` sections required by skills-conformance.test.ts.

Root cause: PR #369 added skills/smoke-test/ to the manifest but never
wired it into RESOLVER.md and never added the sections the conformance
test requires for every manifest entry.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: regenerate llms-full.txt to pick up RESOLVER smoke-test row

build-llms drift guard (test/build-llms.test.ts:58) failed because
llms-full.txt inlines skills/RESOLVER.md and the last commit added a
smoke-test trigger row there. Regenerated via `bun run build:llms`.

78ba0b5b53 v0.19.0 check-resolvable: add OpenClaw skills-dir fallback + docs/tests (#326)
* Add OpenClaw skills fallback for check-resolvable

* feat: v0.17.0 foundation — errors/warnings split + AGENTS.md support + auto-manifest

First two workstreams of the v0.17.0 "skillify end-to-end" release. Landed
together because the D-CX-3 exit-code refactor is a prerequisite for W1's
warning-surfaced filing audit in Workstream 3.

## D-CX-3: split ResolvableReport into errors[] + warnings[] + --strict

Prior: `env.ok = report.issues.length === 0` treated warnings and errors
identically for exit status. Any warning forced exit 1, which meant the
planned filing-audit (W3) would break CI for every OpenClaw deployment
emitting advisory warnings.

New contract:
- `ResolvableReport.errors[]` and `warnings[]` as separate arrays.
- `issues[]` stays as deprecated backcompat union (remove in v0.18).
- Default: exit 0 unless any errors. Warnings are advisory.
- `--strict` flag promotes warnings to fail CI (explicit opt-in).

Files: src/core/check-resolvable.ts, src/commands/check-resolvable.ts
(added --strict flag + help text + header doc), src/commands/doctor.ts
(use new fields), test/check-resolvable-cli.test.ts (rewrite REGRESSION-GATE
to document the new contract, add 3 D-CX-3 cases).

## W1: AGENTS.md support + auto-manifest + priority fix

The reference OpenClaw deployment uses AGENTS.md (not RESOLVER.md) at the
workspace root, and ships without a manifest.json. check-resolvable
silently false-passed against it pre-W1: 0 manifest entries meant 0
reachability iterations meant 0 errors reported.

Post-W1 behavior against ~/git/<redacted>/workspace (smoke-tested live):
- Detects 102 skills via SKILL.md walk (no manifest.json needed)
- Flags 15 unreachable errors (exactly the essay's '~15% dark' finding)
- Flags 108 warnings (overlaps, gaps) — advisory, not blocking
- Auto-detects via \$OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE without --skills-dir

Changes:

- NEW src/core/resolver-filenames.ts: one source of truth for the
  filename policy. \`RESOLVER_FILENAMES = ['RESOLVER.md', 'AGENTS.md']\`.
  Callers import from here, never hardcode either name.

- NEW src/core/skill-manifest.ts: \`loadOrDeriveManifest()\` — reads
  manifest.json when present+valid, otherwise walks \`skillsDir/*/SKILL.md\`
  to derive a synthetic manifest. Both check-resolvable.ts AND dry-fix.ts
  now call this, replacing the two duplicated loaders that silently
  returned [] on missing file (F-ENG-1, D-CX-12).

- src/core/repo-root.ts (rewrite): auto-detect priority changed to put
  \$OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE ahead of findRepoRoot() walk when explicitly set
  (D-CX-4). Adds workspace-root AGENTS.md detection — OpenClaw layout
  places routing at workspace/AGENTS.md with skills/ below. New
  SkillsDirSource variants \`openclaw_workspace_env_root\` and
  \`openclaw_workspace_home_root\` for --verbose log clarity.

- src/core/check-resolvable.ts: accepts RESOLVER.md or AGENTS.md at the
  skills dir or one level up (workspace root). Uses loadOrDeriveManifest
  for reachability. Updated error messages reference both filenames.

- src/core/dry-fix.ts: unified manifest loader — auto-fix now works in
  AGENTS.md-only workspaces where it previously no-op'd silently.

- src/commands/check-resolvable.ts: new AUTO_DETECT_HINT import for
  clearer missing-skills-dir errors; updated sourceLabel map for the
  two new workspace-root variants.

Tests:
- test/skill-manifest.test.ts: 14 cases covering explicit-manifest,
  derived-manifest, malformed JSON, wrong shape, empty explicit array
  (honored as 'zero skills' declaration), dirname fallback when no
  name: frontmatter, underscore/dotfile dir skipping.
- test/repo-root.test.ts: new tests for the priority swap, AGENTS.md
  skills-dir variant, AGENTS.md workspace-root variant, both-files
  present (RESOLVER.md wins).
- test/check-resolvable-cli.test.ts: updated regression-gate to the
  new contract; added three D-CX-3 cases.

All 105 tests passing across the foundation surface.

* feat: v0.17.0 W2 — Check 5 trigger routing eval (structural)

Check 5 of the 10-step skillify checklist (the essay's "resolver
trigger eval") now runs structurally by default and has a dedicated
CLI verb for CI. Ships Layer A; Layer B (LLM tie-break) is reserved
for v0.18.

## New module: src/core/routing-eval.ts

The harness. Pure functions:

- `normalizeText(s)`: lowercase, strip non-alnum to spaces, collapse
  whitespace. Unicode-friendly, quote-agnostic, punctuation-tolerant.
- `extractTriggerPhrases(cellText)`: split quoted alternatives like
  `"search for", "find me"` into separate normalized phrases; fall
  back to the whole cell when unquoted (OpenClaw-style descriptions).
- `indexResolverTriggers(resolverContent)`: build a skill-slug →
  normalized-trigger-phrases map from the resolver table.
- `structuralRouteMatch(intent, index)`: substring-match the
  normalized intent against every trigger phrase; return the set of
  matched skills + whether the match was ambiguous (more than one
  specific skill, excluding always-on family).
- `lintRoutingFixtures`: rejects fixtures whose intent is
  verbatim-equal to a trigger (D-CX-6: fixtures must paraphrase the
  framing, not copy the trigger text) and unknown expected_skill
  references.
- `loadRoutingFixtures(skillsDir)`: walks `skills/<name>/routing-eval.jsonl`,
  handles JSONL line-comments (`//` / `#`), collects malformed lines
  separately without crashing.
- `runRoutingEval(resolver, fixtures)`: pure scoring. Supports
  negative cases (`expected_skill: null` — nothing should match) and
  an `ambiguous_with` allow-list for skills that co-fire with
  always-on handlers (signal-detector, brain-ops, ingest).

Outcomes per fixture: `pass`, `missed`, `ambiguous`, `false_positive`.
Metrics: `top1Accuracy`, `passed`, `missed`, `ambiguous`,
`falsePositives`.

## Integration: check-resolvable runs Layer A by default

`checkResolvable()` now loads `routing-eval.jsonl` fixtures from every
skill, runs the structural eval, and appends non-pass outcomes as
warning-severity issues. New issue types:

- `routing_miss`        — expected skill did not match
- `routing_ambiguous`   — expected matched AND unexpected skills
- `routing_false_positive` — negative case unexpectedly matched
- `routing_fixture_lint` — linter or malformed-JSONL finding

All four are warnings — routing issues don't break exit in default
mode, but `--strict` promotes them (D-CX-3 contract). Advisories
without breaking CI.

## New CLI verb: `gbrain routing-eval`

Standalone Check 5 runner. `--json` envelope, `--llm` flag reserved,
`--skills-dir` override. Exit codes: 0 clean, 1 any failure/lint, 2
setup error. Suitable for CI gating separately from check-resolvable.

Removed from DEFERRED in CLI: `{check: 5, name: trigger_routing_eval}`.
Check 6 (brain_filing) still deferred; lands in W3.

## Seed fixtures

- skills/query/routing-eval.jsonl
- skills/citation-fixer/routing-eval.jsonl (includes a negative case)

These are intentionally modest. Additional fixtures per skill are the
natural next step; routing-eval itself passes cleanly under
check-resolvable default mode even when fixtures surface real gaps
(they're warnings, not errors). Running `gbrain routing-eval` reveals
the gaps immediately.

## Tests (34 new cases + updated integrations)

- test/routing-eval.test.ts: full harness coverage including
  normalization, trigger extraction (quoted and unquoted), indexer,
  structural match with ambiguity + always-on exemption, fixture
  linter (verbatim-equality rule, unknown-skill rule, shape rule,
  negative-case skip), JSONL loader (comments, malformed lines,
  missing dirs, underscore/dot skipping), and every runRoutingEval
  outcome (pass, miss, ambiguous, negative-pass, false-positive, empty).

- test/check-resolvable-cli.test.ts: updated DEFERRED unit test +
  `--json` envelope test + `--verbose` test to reflect Check 5
  shipping.

140/140 passing across the W1 + W2 surface.

## Live smoke

`gbrain routing-eval --json` against the current gbrain repo: 6
fixtures, 1 passing, 5 missed. The misses correctly surface
resolver-trigger narrowness (intents users naturally phrase differently
than trigger text). Fixtures will iterate in follow-up PRs; the
machinery ships now.

* feat: v0.17.0 W3 — Check 6 brain filing audit

Check 6 ships. Every skill that writes brain pages is now audited
against a machine-readable filing-rules doc at
`skills/_brain-filing-rules.json`.

## New: skills/_brain-filing-rules.json

Canonical filing rules, JSON (D-CX-8: the pre-existing yaml-lite
parser handles flat maps only, so YAML would have needed a new
dependency for one file). The companion `_brain-filing-rules.md`
stays as the human explainer. 14 rule entries + explicit
`sources_dir` carve-out for bulk/raw data.

## New module: src/core/filing-audit.ts

- `loadFilingRules(skillsDir)`: returns parsed doc or null (missing
  file → no-op; malformed JSON throws loud).
- `allowedDirectories(rules)`: normalized set of every rules[]
  directory + sources_dir.
- `runFilingAudit(skillsDir)`: walks skills/*/SKILL.md, parses
  frontmatter, audits any skill with `writes_pages: true`.

Two checks per qualifying skill:
  1. `writes_to:` list is non-empty.
  2. Every entry in `writes_to:` appears in allowedDirectories.

Both failures emit warning-severity issues. No errors — advisories
only, per D-CX-3.

## Distinction: writes_pages vs mutating (D-CX-7)

v0.17 introduces a new boolean frontmatter field `writes_pages:`.
`mutating: true` already means "has any side effect" (cron
schedulers, report writers, config mutators). Filing audit targets
ONLY skills with `writes_pages: true`, correctly excluding side-
effect-but-not-page-writing skills. The codex outside voice caught
this: conflating the two fields would drag ~100 skills into
filing-audit noise in the reference OpenClaw deployment.

## Integration: check-resolvable runs Check 6 by default

`checkResolvable()` calls `runFilingAudit(skillsDir)` and appends
issues as warnings. On missing/malformed rules doc, surfaces a
single advisory rather than bailing.

`DEFERRED` array in the CLI is now empty — v0.17 ships both Check 5
(W2) and Check 6 (W3). The export stays in place (stable --json
field) for future deferred checks.

## Seeded frontmatter on 7 canonical writers

Added `writes_pages: true` + `writes_to:` to:
- brain-ops (people, companies, deals, concepts, meetings)
- enrich (people, companies)
- ingest (people, companies, concepts, meetings, sources)
- idea-ingest (people, concepts, sources)
- media-ingest (concepts, people, companies, sources)
- meeting-ingestion (meetings, people, companies)
- signal-detector (people, companies, concepts)

Live smoke: `gbrain check-resolvable --json` on gbrain repo shows
`ok: true`, zero filing errors, zero filing warnings on seeded
skills. Every other mutating:true skill (citation-fixer,
cron-scheduler, data-research, maintain, migrate, minion-orchestrator,
reports, setup, skill-creator, soul-audit, webhook-transforms)
correctly skipped as side-effectful-but-not-page-writing.

## Tests (17 new cases + 3 updated CLI integrations)

test/filing-audit.test.ts covers:
  - rules loader: missing (null), valid, malformed (throw),
    non-array rules (throw)
  - directory normalization (trailing slash, leading slash)
  - clean case
  - missing writes_to on writes_pages:true
  - unknown directory
  - D-CX-7: mutating:true alone does not trigger audit
  - writes_pages:false skips
  - no frontmatter skips
  - inline `writes_to: [a, b]` syntax
  - block `writes_to:\n  - a` syntax
  - sources/ allowed
  - underscore/dot dir skipping
  - total counts (totalScanned vs writesPagesSkills)
  - missing dir graceful
  - action string quality guard

Plus: CLI integration tests updated for empty DEFERRED array (Checks
5 and 6 both shipped).

158/158 passing across the v0.17 foundation + W1 + W2 + W3 surface.

## v0.18 preview (D-CX-13)

v0.17 filing-audit is declaration-level only. A future
`gbrain filing-audit --pages` walks the brain itself, infers primary
subject from page content via LLM judgment, and flags actual
misfilings vs. declarations. Declaration audit is the leading
indicator; pages audit is the ground truth.

* feat: v0.17.0 W4 — gbrain skillify {scaffold,check} subcommand namespace

The essay's "skillify it!" verb becomes a CLI primitive pair. Two
subcommands, both promoted/factored so there's one source of truth:

## `gbrain skillify scaffold <name>` (mechanical)

Pure file generation. Zero LLM, zero judgment. Writes 5 stub files
atomically:

  1. skills/<name>/SKILL.md              frontmatter + body template
  2. skills/<name>/scripts/<name>.mjs    deterministic-code stub
  3. skills/<name>/routing-eval.jsonl    routing fixture seed
  4. test/<name>.test.ts                 vitest skeleton
  5. Appended trigger row to the detected resolver file (RESOLVER.md
     or AGENTS.md — whatever W1's auto-detect found)

Flags: --description (required), --triggers, --writes-to,
--writes-pages, --mutating, --force, --dry-run, --json, --skills-dir.

Kebab-case name validation (`^[a-z][a-z0-9]*(?:-[a-z0-9]+)*$`).
Works against gbrain-native RESOLVER.md layout AND OpenClaw-native
AGENTS.md-at-workspace-root layout (W1 interop).

## `gbrain skillify check [path]` (audit)

Promoted from scripts/skillify-check.ts per codex D-CX-2. The legacy
script stays as a 12-line shim that delegates to the new module so
existing callers (docs, cron, tests) keep working.

Wrapped in a subcommand namespace: `gbrain skillify {scaffold, check}`
is one coherent verb for the whole post-task loop. The essay's
"skillify it!" triggers the markdown skill, which orchestrates the
CLI primitives.

## Idempotency contract (D-CX-7)

`skillify scaffold --force` regenerates stub FILES but never re-appends
a resolver row that already references `skills/<name>/SKILL.md`.
Unit test pins this: two applies produce one resolver row, not two.

## D-CX-9 SKILLIFY_STUB sentinel

Every scaffolded script + SKILL.md body carries a SKILLIFY_STUB
sentinel. `check-resolvable` walks every skill's script dir looking
for the marker and emits a `skillify_stub_unreplaced` warning when
found. Default mode: advisory. `--strict` mode: error, blocks CI.

This is the gate that catches "we scaffolded and forgot to implement"
— the exact failure codex flagged as "scaffold verification is
theater" in the outside-voice review.

## Files

- NEW src/core/skillify/templates.ts (template strings)
- NEW src/core/skillify/generator.ts (planScaffold / applyScaffold +
  SkillifyScaffoldError with typed error codes)
- NEW src/commands/skillify.ts (top-level dispatcher + scaffold handler)
- NEW src/commands/skillify-check.ts (promoted check logic)
- scripts/skillify-check.ts: rewritten to 12-line shim
- skills/skillify/SKILL.md: Phase 2 now references the scaffold
  primitive; legacy manual path kept for extending existing skills
- src/cli.ts: `skillify` added to CLI_ONLY + dispatcher
- src/core/check-resolvable.ts: SKILLIFY_STUB sentinel scan + new
  issue type `skillify_stub_unreplaced`

## Tests (14 new scaffold cases)

test/skillify-scaffold.test.ts covers:
  - SKILL_NAME_PATTERN validation (kebab-case, no spaces, no
    leading digit, no underscores/uppercase)
  - planScaffold against fresh + existing-file + --force paths
  - SKILLIFY_STUB sentinel presence in SKILL.md AND script stub
    (both gate paths)
  - D-CX-7 idempotency: resolverAppend null when row pre-exists,
    second apply doesn't duplicate the row
  - TBD-trigger placeholder when --triggers empty
  - writes_pages / writes_to / mutating flow through to frontmatter
  - applyScaffold writes files + appends resolver
  - Full AGENTS.md-layout workspace interop (W1)

Existing test/skillify-check.test.ts still passes against the legacy
shim — zero regression for downstream consumers.

178/178 passing across v0.17 foundation + W1..W4.

## Live smoke

\`gbrain skillify scaffold webhook-verify --description "verify incoming
webhook signatures" --triggers "verify webhook,check tunnel"
--skills-dir /tmp/smoke --dry-run\` produces the expected 4-file plan
plus a 115-byte resolver append. \`--help\` works on both the top-level
and scaffold levels.

* feat: v0.17.0 W5 — gbrain skillpack install (deps closure + lockfile + diff/dry-run)

The essay's "drop it into YOUR OpenClaw" promise lands as a CLI
verb. One command installs a curated bundle of gbrain skills + the
shared convention files they depend on into a target OpenClaw
workspace. Data-loss protected, concurrency-safe, atomic on the
AGENTS.md managed block.

## openclaw.plugin.json refresh

- Bumped version from stale 0.4.1 → 0.17.0 (codex flagged this drift
  F-ENG-4 / D-CX-4).
- Expanded curated skill list from 7 → 25. Uses skills/manifest.json
  top-level (v0.10.0 sourced) minus setup/migrate/publish
  (install-time / code+skill pairs) minus private skills.
- Added \`shared_deps: [...]\` listing convention files every skill
  references: conventions/, _brain-filing-rules.{md,json},
  _output-rules.md. Installer always pulls these (D-CX-10
  dependency closure).
- Added \`excluded_from_install: [...]\` for setup/migrate/publish —
  surfaces the intentional exclusion as data rather than a comment.

## New module: src/core/skillpack/bundle.ts

- \`findGbrainRoot(start)\` — walks up looking for openclaw.plugin.json
  + src/cli.ts. The pair identifies a gbrain checkout.
- \`loadBundleManifest(root)\` — strict validation + typed BundleError
  codes (manifest_not_found, manifest_malformed, skill_not_found).
- \`enumerateBundle({gbrainRoot, skillSlug?, manifest})\` — flat list
  of source → target-relative paths. When skillSlug is set, scopes
  to that one skill BUT always pulls shared_deps. \`--all\` walks every
  skill in the manifest.
- \`bundledSkillSlugs(manifest)\` — sorted slugs for \`skillpack list\`.

## New module: src/core/skillpack/installer.ts

- \`planInstall(opts)\` — builds InstallPlan with per-file
  existing/identical diff state. Pure; no writes.
- \`applyInstall(plan, opts)\` — writes files + managed block with
  the contracts below.
- \`diffSkill(root, slug, skillsDir)\` — read-only per-file status
  for \`skillpack diff <name>\`.

**Per-file diff protection (D-CX-3 / F4):**
  wrote_new            fresh file
  wrote_overwrite      local diff + --overwrite-local passed
  skipped_identical    bytes match the bundle (silent re-install)
  skipped_locally_modified  target differs + no --overwrite-local
  → PROTECTED DEFAULT

**Concurrency + atomic AGENTS.md (D-CX-11):**
  - \`.gbrain-skillpack.lock\` at workspace root. Acquired on the
    first write, released in finally.
  - Lock stale threshold configurable (default 10min). --force-unlock
    overrides.
  - Managed-block writes via tmp-file-plus-rename (atomic on POSIX).

**Managed-block format:**
  <!-- gbrain:skillpack:begin -->
  <!-- Installed by gbrain <version> — do not hand-edit between markers. -->
  | Trigger | Skill |
  |---------|-------|
  | "alpha" | \`skills/alpha/SKILL.md\` |
  | ...
  <!-- gbrain:skillpack:end -->

  extractManagedSlugs() roundtrips: single-skill installs accumulate
  into the same block rather than overwriting each other.

## New CLI: gbrain skillpack {list, install, diff, check}

Namespaced alongside W4's \`gbrain skillify\`. Subcommands:
  list             bundle inventory (human + --json)
  install <name>   single skill + deps closure
  install --all    entire curated bundle
  diff <name>      per-file diff vs target; read-only
  check            delegates to the pre-existing skillpack-check
                   (same CLI just namespaced)

Flags on install: --overwrite-local, --force-unlock, --dry-run,
--json, --skills-dir, --workspace.

Exit codes: 0 clean, 1 files skipped (protected local edits),
2 setup error / lock held.

## Live smoke

\`gbrain skillpack list\`: 25 skills. \`skillpack install query --dry-run\`
against a fresh temp workspace: 12 files planned (SKILL.md,
routing-eval.jsonl, 7 convention files, 3 rule files, managed block
to AGENTS.md). All shared_deps flagged [shared].

## Tests (36 new cases)

test/skillpack-install.test.ts:
  - findGbrainRoot walks up, returns null when absent
  - loadBundleManifest validates + rejects malformed
  - enumerateBundle pulls shared_deps on single-skill scope (D-CX-10)
  - buildManagedBlock + updateManagedBlock: append when absent,
    in-place replace when present, extractManagedSlugs roundtrip
  - planInstall + applyInstall: fresh install, dry-run, idempotency
    (skipped_identical), local-edit protection, --overwrite-local,
    lock-held concurrency (D-CX-11), --force-unlock, atomic
    managed-block write, multi-skill accumulation in managed block,
    AGENTS.md-at-workspace-root interop (W1 cross-check)
  - diffSkill: missing, identical, differs

test/skillpack-sync-guard.test.ts (F-ENG-4):
  - both manifests exist
  - every skill in plugin.json exists on disk
  - every shared_dep exists on disk
  - plugin.json skills ⊂ skills/manifest.json
  - excluded skills aren't in the install list
  - plugin version ≥ 0.17 (kills the 0.4.1 stale drift)

204/204 passing across the v0.17 foundation + W1..W5.

* feat: v0.17.0 guards — privacy scrub + OpenClaw-reference E2E + v0.16.4 regression

Three ship-blocker work items from the eng review + codex outside
voice round out v0.17:

## scripts/check-privacy.sh (CLAUDE.md:550 enforcement)

Greps for the banned OpenClaw fork name (case-insensitive) across
tracked files. Two modes:
  scripts/check-privacy.sh           scan working tree
  scripts/check-privacy.sh --staged  scan git-staged files (pre-commit)

Exit 1 on any finding outside the allow-list. Allow-list covers files
where the name is legitimately present: this script itself (defines
the rule), CLAUDE.md (the canonical rule text), llms-full.txt
(auto-generated from CLAUDE.md), the historical upgrade guide, and
test/integrations.test.ts (whose personal-info regex ENFORCES the
rule against recipes/).

Scrubbed existing leaks:
  - CHANGELOG.md:366 reference in a closes-# line → "from the
    OpenClaw reference deployment"
  - test/doctor-minions-check.test.ts:171 comment → "an OpenClaw
    host's cron script"
  - test/plugin-loader.test.ts fixture plugin name → "openclaw-ref"

## test/e2e/openclaw-reference-compat.test.ts (ship-blocker gate)

The test that proves v0.17 delivers on the headline claim. New
fixture at test/fixtures/openclaw-reference-minimal/ mimics the
reference OpenClaw deployment layout: AGENTS.md at workspace root,
skills/ below, no manifest.json. Four fixture skills
(signal-detector, query, brain-ops, context-now).

Every v0.17 surface gets exercised end-to-end:
  - autoDetectSkillsDir with $OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE (D-CX-4 priority)
  - loadOrDeriveManifest walks SKILL.md (F-ENG-1 auto-manifest)
  - checkResolvable accepts AGENTS.md at workspace root, all 4
    skills reachable via resolver rows, zero errors
  - Filing audit clean (brain-ops declares writes_pages+writes_to)
  - CLI subprocess via `--skills-dir` → exit 0
  - CLI subprocess via $OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE (no flag) → exit 0,
    correct skillsDir detection
  - skillpack install against the layout writes managed block into
    AGENTS.md at workspace root

This is THE ship-blocker test. If the W1 + W5 stack ever regresses
against an AGENTS.md-layout workspace, this fails first.

## test/regression-v0_16_4.test.ts (F-ENG-8)

Guards v0.17 against adding "surprise" warnings. Builds a clean
fixture matching v0.16.4 canonical shape (manifest.json, RESOLVER.md,
2 skills, no routing-eval fixtures, no writes_pages). Runs v0.17
checkResolvable and asserts:
  - zero errors, zero routing_*/filing_*/skillify_stub_* warnings
  - JSON envelope keys unchanged (errors, warnings, issues, ok,
    summary) — deprecated `issues[]` still equals errors ∪ warnings
  - summary shape unchanged

If someone adds a new check that fires unexpectedly on a v0.16.4-era
fixture, this test catches it immediately.

## Fixture

test/fixtures/openclaw-reference-minimal/
├── AGENTS.md                       (4 rows, 3 sections)
└── skills/
    ├── brain-ops/SKILL.md          (writes_pages+writes_to)
    ├── context-now/SKILL.md
    ├── query/SKILL.md
    └── signal-detector/SKILL.md

Intentionally small (4 skills, 1 AGENTS.md, ~30 lines total) so the
fixture is maintainable. The OPENCLAW-reference deployment has 107
skills — this fixture is the minimum shape that exercises the full
v0.17 code path.

## Tests

215/215 passing across the full v0.17 surface:
  - foundation + W1 + W2 + W3 + W4 + W5 (204)
  - regression-v0_16_4 (3)
  - openclaw-reference-compat (7)
  - privacy guard (separate bash; exits 0 clean)

Plus: privacy pre-commit hook is a drop-in wrapper (documented in
the script header). Wiring into .github/workflows is a follow-up.

* release: v0.17.0 — skillify goes end-to-end

Every skill. Every check. Every install. One command each.

Five workstreams land in one release:
  - W1: AGENTS.md + auto-manifest + env-priority
  - W2: Check 5 routing eval
  - W3: Check 6 brain filing
  - W4: gbrain skillify {scaffold,check}
  - W5: gbrain skillpack {list,install,diff}

Plus D-CX-3 foundation (errors/warnings split + --strict), plus
codex outside-voice fixes (D-CX-1..12 applied), plus privacy pre-
commit guard, plus OpenClaw-reference E2E fixture, plus v0.16.4
regression guard.

Live against the reference OpenClaw deployment: 102 skills detected
via auto-manifest, 15 unreachable errors + 108 warnings surfaced —
exactly the essay's "~15% dark" finding. The magic word from the
essay finally works the way the essay describes.

Tests: 2156 unit (178 new) + 152 E2E Tier 1 + 3 Tier 2 + 8 new
openclaw-reference fixture cases. 0 failures across all tiers.
Plan + reviews: ~/.claude/plans/p1-lets-just-vast-blanket.md.

* fix(test): add missing 'strict' field to 5 Flags literals in check-resolvable-cli.test.ts

CI failed `tsc --noEmit` after the D-CX-3 errors/warnings split added
`strict: boolean` as a required field on the `Flags` interface. Five
test sites in test/check-resolvable-cli.test.ts still construct
Flags object literals (for direct `resolveSkillsDir()` calls) and
hadn't been updated.

Added `strict: false` to all five literals:
  - line 129  --skills-dir absolute path
  - line 135  --skills-dir relative path
  - line 148  no --skills-dir
  - line 160  no --skills-dir + no env
  - line 178  --skills-dir + OPENCLAW_WORKSPACE (REGRESSION-GATE)

Unit tests: 207/207 pass across the v0.19 surface. tsc --noEmit
exits 0.

* docs: adopt gstack's branch-scoped CHANGELOG rule + rewrite v0.19.0 entry

CLAUDE.md gains a new top section before "CHANGELOG voice" that codifies
what gstack's CLAUDE.md already says: CHANGELOG is user-facing product
release notes, not a log of internal decisions. Every entry describes
what THIS branch adds vs master. Plan-file IDs, decision tags (D-CX-#,
F-ENG-#), review rounds, test counts as marketing, and contributor-
facing metrics don't belong in it.

The v0.19.0 entry is rewritten to the new bar:

Removed:
- Version-collision note about v0.17.0/v0.18.0 shipping on master
- All D-CX-## and W# tags (meaningless outside the plan file)
- "codex caught" / CEO + Eng review round-up narrative
- Plan file path reference
- "215 new cases across 13 test files" marketing metrics
- W1..W5 bucketing in itemized changes

Kept / sharpened:
- User-facing headline (what your agent can now do)
- Numbers that mean something to users (unreachable-skills count,
  scaffold timing, pre/post AGENTS.md support)
- Upgrade instructions
- Added/Changed/Fixed/For-contributors itemized sections (standard
  keep-a-changelog shape)

Version sequence (`grep "^## \["`) is contiguous v0.19.0 → v0.16.4.
Privacy guard clean. Tests green.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: update README/CLAUDE/TODOS for v0.19.0 skills + skillify loop

Skill count was stale (README said 26, actual is 28: skillify + skillpack-check
were missing from the tables and count). Corrected throughout. Marked TODOS item
"Checks 5 + 6 deferred in PR #325" as completed in v0.19 — they shipped as real
implementations, not just filed issues.

README:
- Skill count 26 → 28 (headline, install flow, table section, architecture diagram)
- Added `skillify` + `skillpack-check` rows to the operational skills table
- Rewrote the "Skillify" section to lead with the four v0.19 CLI verbs
  (`gbrain skillify scaffold/check`, `gbrain skillpack list/install/diff`,
  `gbrain routing-eval`, `gbrain check-resolvable --strict`) instead of
  describing the pre-v0.19 state. Added the "works on your OpenClaw" pitch
  around AGENTS.md + auto-manifest. Added the "drop 25 curated skills into
  your OpenClaw" section for skillpack install.
- Added v0.19 skills block + v0.18 multi-source + v0.17 dream to the Commands
  reference at the bottom.
- Standalone instruction sets count: 25 → 28 (with a parenthetical noting
  the curated 25-skill bundle that `skillpack install` ships).

CLAUDE.md:
- Skill count 26 → 28 in the Skills section.
- New "Skillify loop (v0.19)" sub-bullet listing skillify + skillpack-check.
- Noted that `AGENTS.md` is also accepted as a resolver filename.

TODOS.md:
- Created "## Completed" section at the top.
- Moved the "Checks 5 + 6" item there with completion note linking to the
  actual implementation files (routing-eval.ts + filing-audit.ts).

Privacy scan clean. Version sequence contiguous v0.19.0 → v0.16.4.

* fix(test): regenerate llms-full.txt + llms.txt after README/CLAUDE edits

CI failed on `build-llms generator > committed llms.txt + llms-full.txt
match current generator output`. The drift was expected: the prior
commit edited README.md and CLAUDE.md (skill count + skillify section),
both of which are inlined into llms-full.txt by `scripts/build-llms.ts`.

Fix: `bun run build:llms` + commit the regenerated output.

dcd13dd638 feat: v0.16.4 — gbrain check-resolvable CLI + skillify-check wiring (#325)
* Merge origin/master into garrytan/check-resolvable-v1

Resolves CHANGELOG.md conflict: preserved v0.16.1/v0.16.2/v0.16.3 upstream
entries and added v0.16.4 (check-resolvable ship) above them.

* refactor: extract findRepoRoot to src/core/repo-root.ts

Moves findRepoRoot() from private in doctor.ts to a zero-dependency shared
module with a parameterized startDir for test hermeticity. Doctor imports
the shared version; no behavior change (default arg matches prior semantics).

The new gbrain check-resolvable CLI needs findRepoRoot too; importing from
doctor.ts would drag in DB/progress dependencies.

* feat: gbrain check-resolvable CLI wrapper

Standalone CLI gate over checkResolvable(). Exits 1 on any issue (warnings
or errors) per the README:259 contract, stricter than doctor's resolver_health
which ignores warnings. Doctor has 15 other checks to lean on; the standalone
command has nowhere to hide.

- Stable JSON envelope: {ok, skillsDir, report, autoFix, deferred, error, message}
- --fix auto-applies DRY fixes via autoFixDryViolations before re-checking
- --dry-run with --fix previews without writing; autoFix.fixed shows diff
- --verbose prints the deferred-checks note (Checks 5 + 6)
- --skills-dir PATH for hermetic test runs
- Permissive on unknown flags, matching lint/orphans/publish convention

Checks 5 (trigger routing eval) and 6 (brain filing) are tracked as separate
GitHub issues and surfaced via the deferred[] field in --json output.

Covered by 17 new test cases (flag parsing, JSON envelope shape, exit-code
regression gates, --fix wiring, --verbose output).

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.16.4)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* chore: track check-resolvable issue-URL swap in TODOS

Defers the filing of GitHub tracking issues for Checks 5 (trigger routing
eval) and 6 (brain filing) plus the TBD-check-5/TBD-check-6 URL replacement
in src/commands/check-resolvable.ts. Unblocks merging PR #325.

* test: fix repo-root CI failure — assert parity, not path contents

The 'default arg uses process.cwd()' test asserted the returned path
matched /honolulu/, which is the local workspace name but not the CI
runner's checkout path (/home/runner/work/gbrain/gbrain). The test's
real purpose is behavioral parity: findRepoRoot() === findRepoRoot(cwd).
Assert that directly instead of pattern-matching paths.

418d955fd3 docs: v0.16.1 — minions worker deployment guide (from #287) (#317)
* docs: v0.16.1 — minions worker deployment guide (from #287)

New docs/guides/minions-deployment.md covering persistent worker deploy
patterns (watchdog cron, inline --follow for cron-only workloads) plus
the sharp edges of running gbrain jobs work against Supabase in
production.

Addresses a real gap: existing minions docs (minions-fix.md,
minions-shell-jobs.md) cover schema repair and shell-job security,
not deploy patterns. With v0.16.0's durable agent runtime, the
persistent worker is now load-bearing for subagent + subagent_aggregator
handlers too, so a supervised deploy story matters.

Pre-landing accuracy pass corrected five factual bugs against current
source:
- max_stalled column default (5, not 1 or 3)
- stalled-jobs smoke-test query (active, not waiting)
- watchdog SIGTERM-to-SIGKILL grace (10s minimum, not 2s)
- cron env pattern (crontab env lines, not source ~/.bashrc)
- --follow exit semantics (blocks until submitted job is terminal,
  not until queue is empty)

Docs-only. No code changed. Zero migration required.

Contributed by a downstream agent fork via #287.

* chore: credit Wintermute correctly in v0.16.1 CHANGELOG

Wintermute is gbrain's own OpenClaw instance running in production, not a
community contributor. The original CHANGELOG framing ("community contributor
@wintermute") understated the funnier truth: the agent built on top of the
project wrote the deploy guide for the project after hitting its sharp edges
in production. Dogfooding with extra steps.

* docs: rewrite minions deployment guide for agent line-by-line execution

Fixes 12 findings from reading v0.16.1 guide as-an-agent would:

Real bugs:
- Crontab syntax wrong for user crontabs (6-field format dumped into
  `crontab -e` got "bad minute" or parsed `user` as the command). Now two
  labeled blocks: 5-field for `crontab -e`, 6-field for `/etc/crontab`.
- Watchdog restart loop (old shutdown lines in unrotated log re-matched
  every 5 min forever). New `minion-watchdog.sh` writes 2-line PID file
  (PID + restart epoch) and only considers log lines newer than the
  epoch. Regex rewritten explicit (mawk rejects `{n}` intervals).
- Credentials in world-readable /etc/crontab. Secrets move to
  /etc/gbrain.env (mode 600), referenced via BASH_ENV in crontab.

Structural:
- Preconditions block (5 fail-fast checks).
- "Which option?" decision tree.
- Template variable table (6 vars documented).
- Upgrade section (v0.13.x -> v0.16.2 checklist).
- Option 3: systemd.service + Procfile + fly.toml.partial snippets.
- Uninstall section.
- `--follow` example uses `gbrain embed --stale` (a real command) instead
  of the fictional `gbrain enrich`.
- Dead-end "Proposed CLI flags (not yet implemented)" replaced with a
  "Tune per-job today" callout pointing at flags that exist.
- Known Issues rewritten as imperatives.

Also wires `docs/guides/minions-deployment.md` into `scripts/llms-config.ts`
under the Configuration section so remote agents fetching llms.txt /
llms-full.txt see the guide by name.

The shipped docs/guides/minions-deployment.md uses `gbrain embed --stale`

`gbrain enrich --brain $GBRAIN_WORKSPACE` (the older draft). Bring the

0e9f8814a5 feat: v0.16.0 — durable agent runtime (gbrain agent + subagent handler + plugin loader) (#258)
* refactor(mcp): extract buildToolDefs helper for subagent tool registry reuse

The inline operations.map(...) block in src/mcp/server.ts became the only
source of truth for agent-facing tool definitions. Extract into a reusable
exported helper so the v0.15 subagent tool registry can call it with a
filtered OPERATIONS subset instead of duplicating the shape.

Byte-for-byte equivalence regression pinned in test/mcp-tool-defs.test.ts —
legacy inline mapping kept verbatim inside the test so any future drift
between the new helper and the pre-extraction MCP schema fails loudly.

* feat(operations): subagent-aware OperationContext + put_page namespace

Adds three optional fields to OperationContext:
  - jobId?: number       — the currently running Minion job id
  - subagentId?: number  — the owning subagent job id for tool-dispatched calls
  - viaSubagent?: boolean — FAIL-CLOSED flag for agent-path gating

put_page now enforces a namespace rule when invoked on the subagent tool
dispatch path (viaSubagent=true): writes MUST target
`wiki/agents/<subagentId>/...`. Anchored, slash-boundary enforced so a
collision like `wiki/agents/12evil/...` can't impersonate subagent 12.

The check runs BEFORE the dry-run short-circuit so preview calls surface
the same rejection. Fail-closed: a missing subagentId with viaSubagent=true
rejects every slug rather than letting a dispatcher bug open a hole.

Existing callers unaffected — all three fields are optional and the legacy
put_page behavior is unchanged when viaSubagent is undefined/false.

12 regression + namespace tests pin:
  - local CLI writes (viaSubagent unset) accept arbitrary slugs
  - MCP writes (remote=true, viaSubagent unset) accept arbitrary slugs
  - subagent-path: anchored prefix accepted, wrong id rejected, prefix-
    collision defeated, leading-slash rejected, bare-prefix rejected,
    fail-closed on missing/NaN subagentId, permission_denied code emitted

* feat(schema): v0.15.0 subagent runtime tables + migration orchestrator

Adds three new tables for the durable LLM agent runtime:

  subagent_messages         — Anthropic message-block persistence.
                              Parallel tool_use blocks in one assistant
                              message live in content_blocks JSONB, not
                              across rows (fixes the (job_id, turn_idx, role)
                              misdesign codex caught in v0.13 drafting).

  subagent_tool_executions  — Two-phase tool ledger. INSERT pending before
                              execute, UPDATE complete/failed after. Replay
                              re-runs pending rows only if the tool is
                              idempotent (v1 ships only idempotent tools so
                              this is preventive).

  subagent_rate_leases      — Lease-based concurrency cap for outbound
                              providers (e.g. anthropic:messages). Stale
                              leases auto-prune on next acquire so crashed
                              workers can't strand capacity.

All DDL uses CREATE TABLE/INDEX IF NOT EXISTS — order-independent vs
PR #244's initSchema() reorder, and idempotent across fresh-install +
upgrade paths. Shipped in both src/schema.sql (Postgres) and
src/core/pglite-schema.ts (PGLite); schema-embedded.ts regenerated.

Migration orchestrator v0_15_0.ts (phases: schema → verify → record).
v0_14_0.ts is a no-op stub so the registry's version sequence stays
gapless (v0.14.0 shipped shell-jobs — code change, no DB migration).

10 unit tests for registry wiring, ordering, dry-run phase behavior, and
schema-embedded table presence. test/apply-migrations.test.ts updated for
the two new registry entries.

* feat(minions): emit child_done on every terminal + max_stalled per-job + terminal set fix

Three correctness fixes the v0.15 subagent aggregator spine depends on:

1. child_done emission on ALL terminal transitions, not just success.
   - completeJob already emitted on success — now also tags outcome='complete'.
   - failJob newly emits on terminal 'failed' or 'dead' (outcome='failed'|'dead',
     error=<text>), BEFORE the parent-terminal UPDATE so the EXISTS guard on
     the inbox INSERT doesn't skip it on fail_parent paths (codex catch).
   - cancelJob now emits outcome='cancelled' per descendant with a parent.
   - handleTimeouts now emits outcome='timeout' per timed-out child.
   ChildDoneMessage gains optional { outcome, error } — backwards compatible
   (legacy writers omitted them; consumers treat absent outcome as 'complete').

2. Parent-resolution terminal set now includes 'failed'.
   Pre-v0.15 the `NOT EXISTS (... status NOT IN ('completed','dead','cancelled'))`
   guard treated a failed child as still-pending, stranding aggregator parents
   that chose on_child_fail='continue' or 'ignore' in waiting-children forever.
   Expanded to {completed, failed, dead, cancelled} everywhere parent resolution
   reads child status (completeJob inline, failJob remove_dep + continue,
   cancelJob sweep, handleTimeouts sweep, and the resolveParent method itself).

3. MinionJobInput.max_stalled threads through MinionQueue.add() on INSERT.
   Column exists with default 1 — that is "first stall → dead", which defeats
   crash recovery for long-running handlers. Subagent children will set
   max_stalled: 3 to survive mid-run worker kills. Second-submitter under an
   idempotency-key hit does NOT mutate the existing row (codex-flagged
   footgun — first-submit options are load-bearing state).

13 unit tests pin: emission on each of completeJob/failJob/cancelJob/
handleTimeouts, insertion order on fail_parent, terminal-set expansion with
continue policy, max_stalled default + override + idempotency behavior.

E2E tier 1 (Postgres) passes 141 tests unchanged.

* feat(minions): rate-leases + waitForCompletion infra for v0.15 subagent

Two infrastructure modules the subagent handler spine depends on:

rate-leases.ts — lease-based concurrency cap for outbound providers
(anthropic:messages, openai:*, etc.). Counter-based limiters leak capacity
on worker crash; leases are owner-tagged rows with expires_at that
auto-prune on the next acquire. Two-phase: txn-scoped pg_advisory_xact_lock
guards the check-then-insert so concurrent acquires can't both win the
"last slot". renewLeaseWithBackoff retries 3x (250/500/1000ms) for mid-
call DB blips — on persistent failure the LLM-loop caller aborts with a
renewable error so the worker re-claims and the rate invariant is
preserved. Owner FK cascades clean up leases on job deletion.

wait-for-completion.ts — poll-until-terminal helper for CLI callers.
Minions' NOTIFY is worker-side only; `gbrain agent run --follow` polls
getJob() until status is {completed, failed, dead, cancelled}. TimeoutError
carries jobId + elapsedMs and does NOT cancel the job — the user can
inspect via `gbrain jobs get <id>` later. Supports AbortSignal for Ctrl-C
without throwing. Default pollMs is 1000 on Postgres, 250 on PGLite (inline
CLI has no network RTT).

21 unit tests cover: single/multi acquire under cap, rejection past cap,
release frees slot, different keys are independent, stale prune, cascade
on owner delete, renew bumps expires_at, renew on missing is false,
backoff path success + pruned short-circuit. waitForCompletion: fast-path
terminal, transitions mid-wait (completed/failed/cancelled), TimeoutError
shape, abort-signal early exit, non-existent job error.

* feat(minions): subagent ToolDef types + brain-tool registry (v0.15)

Types first so the handler has a stable contract:
  - SubagentHandlerData / AggregatorHandlerData — the two job.data shapes
  - ToolCtx (engine, jobId, remote, signal) + ToolDef (name, description,
    input_schema, idempotent, execute) — Anthropic-envelope, distinct from
    the MCP McpToolDef extraction landed earlier
  - ContentBlock discriminated union for subagent_messages.content_blocks
  - SubagentStopReason + SubagentResult emitted on terminal completion

brain-allowlist.ts derives one ToolDef per allow-listed OPERATION. Reuses
the ParamDef → JSONSchema shape from the MCP extraction in a local helper
(Anthropic's input_schema field diverges from MCP's inputSchema by a
character). The 11-name allow-list is read-safe + put_page — every
destructive / filesystem / identity-mutating op stays off by default.

put_page gets a namespace-wrapped tool schema: `slug` pattern = anchored
`^wiki/agents/<subagentId>/.+`. The server-side check in put_page op
(shipped in prior commit) is still the authoritative gate — the schema
just helps the model write correct slugs first-try. `subagentId` is
plumbed into the ToolCtx so the viaSubagent=true fail-closed path lights
up on every tool-dispatched put_page.

filterAllowedTools narrows a registry by subagent_def's allowed_tools
frontmatter field. Rejects unknown names at load time (no silent drop —
typos in a skills/subagents/*.md would otherwise ship to prod with a
tool silently missing).

18 tests pin: every allowlist name exists in OPERATIONS (catches upstream
rename), Anthropic name regex, put_page namespace pattern per-subagent,
execute() routes through the op handler with viaSubagent=true, out-of-
namespace put_page throws permission_denied, filter passes prefixed +
unprefixed names, rejects unknowns, deduplicates.

* feat(minions): subagent-audit JSONL + transcript renderer

Two small plumbing pieces the v0.15 subagent handler + `gbrain agent logs`
depend on:

subagent-audit.ts — JSONL-rotated audit log mirroring the shell-audit
pattern. Two event flavors: submission (one line per job submit) and
heartbeat (one line per turn boundary — llm_call_started / completed /
tool_called / tool_result / tool_failed). Heartbeats fix the "--follow on
a long Anthropic call shows nothing for 30 seconds" problem codex flagged.
Never logs prompts or tool inputs (PII risk — subagent input_vars may
carry user-supplied free text); DOES log tokens, ms_elapsed, tool_name,
first 200 chars of error text. Rotates weekly via ISO week. `readSubagent
AuditForJob` is the readback path for `gbrain agent logs` — scans the
current + prior week file so job boundaries across weeks still resolve.
`GBRAIN_AUDIT_DIR` overrides the default ~/.gbrain/audit/ for container
deploys.

transcript.ts — renders subagent_messages + subagent_tool_executions to
markdown. Message order is authoritative; tool rows splice under their
owning assistant tool_use by tool_use_id. Handles text, tool_use (with
pending / complete / failed execution rows), tool_result (skipped if
we already rendered the owning tool_use — avoids double-printing), and
unknown block types (fenced JSON dump for diagnostics). Output is
UTF-8-safe truncated at maxOutputBytes.

21 unit tests: ISO week filename rotation (incl. 2027-01-01 → W53-2026
boundary), submission + heartbeat write shapes, 200-char error cap, best-
effort write failure doesn't throw, readback filters by job_id and
sinceIso. Transcript: empty input, ordering, token line, tool_use +
complete/failed/pending execution rendering, truncation, unknown-block
diagnostic dump.

* feat(minions): subagent LLM-loop handler with crash-resumable replay

The main event: runs one Anthropic Messages API conversation with tool
use, persists every turn + tool execution, and resumes cleanly after a
worker kill anywhere in the loop.

Design points that carry the v0.15 guarantees:

  1. Two-phase tool persistence. INSERT status='pending' before dispatch,
     UPDATE to 'complete' or 'failed' after. subagent_messages rows are
     the canonical conversation; subagent_tool_executions rows are the
     canonical "did this tool run + what did it return". Either DB commit
     is atomic, so replay has a single source of truth.

  2. Replay reconciliation. If the last persisted message is an assistant
     with tool_use blocks AND no following synthesized user message, we
     crashed mid-dispatch. On resume, finish those tools first (respecting
     idempotent flag for 'pending' rows), synthesize the user turn, and
     THEN call the LLM again. Non-idempotent pending rows abort the job
     with a clear error — v0.15 ships only idempotent tools so this is
     preventive.

  3. Rate lease around every LLM call. acquireLease before, releaseLease
     after (both success and error paths). acquired=false throws
     RateLeaseUnavailableError — the worker treats it as a renewable
     error and re-claims later, so a temporary capacity cap doesn't fail
     the job terminally.

  4. Anthropic prompt caching. system block gets cache_control=ephemeral;
     the LAST tool def gets it too (Anthropic caches everything up to and
     including the marked block). ~10x cost reduction on multi-turn
     agents per the plan.

  5. Dual-signal abort. AbortSignal.any merges ctx.signal (timeout / lock
     loss / cancel) with ctx.shutdownSignal (worker SIGTERM). Both feed
     the Anthropic call's AbortSignal; mid-turn abort bails before the
     next LLM call with whatever turns are already persisted. Node ≥ 20
     has AbortSignal.any; older runtimes get a manual-merge polyfill.

  6. Injectable Anthropic client. The real SDK implements MessagesClient
     structurally; tests inject a FakeMessagesClient that scripts
     responses.

12 unit tests pin: no-tool happy path, single tool_use complete, tool
throws → failed row + loop continues, unknown tool name rejection,
max_turns cap, crash-then-resume with partial state, replay skips already-
complete tool execs without re-invoking execute, non-idempotent pending
rejects on resume, lease acquire + release roundtrip, RateLeaseUnavailable
under cap-full, missing prompt validation, allowed_tools unknown-name.

NOT in v0.15: refusal detection (stop_reason + content shape), stop_reason
=max_tokens partial recovery, mid-call lease renewal with backoff loop.
All three are documented as P2 items in the plan file.

* feat(minions): subagent_aggregator handler with mixed-outcome rendering

Claims AFTER all subagent children resolve — by then Lane 1B's queue
changes have posted one child_done message per terminal transition into
this job's inbox (complete / failed / dead / cancelled / timeout). The
aggregator reads those, builds a deterministic markdown summary, and
returns it as the handler result.

Not an LLM call in v0.15 — output is reproducible concatenation so
fan-out runs stay comparable. v0.16+ can add an LLM synthesis pass
behind an opt-in flag.

Contract:
  - empty children_ids → `(no children)` marker
  - missing child_done (shouldn't happen under v0.15 invariants but
    possible if a terminal-state path slipped past Lane 1B) → counted as
    failed with "no child_done message observed" error
  - non-complete outcomes: result is null in the output so no payload
    leaks alongside a failure label
  - children appear in the order children_ids was supplied
  - custom aggregate_prompt_template replaces the markdown header

13 unit tests cover: empty input, all-success, mixed outcomes, result
suppression on failure, missing child_done handling, order preservation,
custom template, progress + log emission, stringified JSONB payload
parsing, non-child_done inbox filtering, legacy-writer outcome fallback,
and internal helper edges.

* feat(minions): GBRAIN_PLUGIN_PATH loader + plugin-authors guide (v0.15)

Plumbing that makes Wintermute (and future downstream agents) day-1
usable on v0.15. Host repos drop a `gbrain.plugin.json` + `subagents/`
directory somewhere, set GBRAIN_PLUGIN_PATH (colon-separated like \$PATH),
and their custom subagent defs load at worker startup.

Path policy is strict: absolute paths only. Relative, ~-prefixed, and
URL-style (https://, file://) all rejected with warnings — the user
controls where plugins live. Non-existent paths and files (not dirs) are
warned and skipped so a typo doesn't crash worker startup.

Collision policy: left-wins. If two plugins ship a subagent with the same
name, the first one in GBRAIN_PLUGIN_PATH keeps it and the other gets a
warning naming both sources. Deterministic + debuggable.

Trust policy: plugins ship subagent defs ONLY. Cannot declare new tools,
cannot extend the brain allow-list, cannot override safety flags. The
subagent def's `allowed_tools:` frontmatter MUST subset the derived
registry — validation happens at load time (worker startup), not at
dispatch time, so a typo in a skill gives a loud startup error instead
of silently "tool never fires at 3am."

Manifest `plugin_version: "gbrain-plugin-v1"` locks the contract. Unknown
versions rejected. `subagents` field escape attempts (`../../../etc` etc)
rejected. gray-matter handles the markdown frontmatter parse — subagent
defs don't conform to the page schema, so we don't use parseMarkdown.

docs/guides/plugin-authors.md is the Wintermute-facing walkthrough.
Covers the minimum viable plugin shape, the three policies, the
frontmatter fields, known caveats (audit JSONL is local-only, tool calls
always run remote=true, put_page is namespace-scoped).

22 unit tests pin path rejection, missing/invalid manifest, unsupported
version, escape-attempt, basename fallback for missing frontmatter.name,
allowed_tools round-trip, unknown-tool rejection with validAgentToolNames,
empty env, multi-path, collision warning with left-wins, trimmed paths,
manifest-rejection as warning.

* feat(cli): gbrain agent run + logs + worker registration (v0.15 Lane 4H)

Three integration seams wired:

src/commands/agent.ts — \`gbrain agent run\`. Submits subagent jobs (or a
fan-out of N + aggregator) under the trusted-submit flag so the
PROTECTED_JOB_NAMES guard doesn't reject. Fan-out path creates the
aggregator first (so children can reference its id as parent), submits
each child with on_child_fail='continue' (required by Lane 1B's terminal-
set + child_done machinery), then jsonb_set's the aggregator's
children_ids. Short-circuits a 1-entry manifest to a single subagent
with no aggregator. Follow mode runs agent-logs streaming + waitFor
Completion in parallel and exits on terminal status; detach prints the
job id and exits. Ctrl-C is handled as detach, not cancel — the job
keeps running, consistent with durability invariants.

src/commands/agent-logs.ts — \`gbrain agent logs\`. Merges ~/.gbrain/audit/
subagent-jobs-*.jsonl (heartbeats + submissions) with subagent_messages
(persisted conversation) in one chronological stream. --follow polls at
1s and exits when the job hits terminal. --since accepts ISO-8601 OR
relative shorthand (5m / 1h / 2d). Writes transcript tail (full message
+ tool tree) only for terminal jobs, so mid-run --follow doesn't spam a
half-rendered transcript.

src/commands/jobs.ts registerBuiltinHandlers — matches the shell-handler
opt-in shape. GBRAIN_ALLOW_LLM_JOBS=1 registers the subagent +
subagent_aggregator handlers, then loads plugins from GBRAIN_PLUGIN_PATH
with validAgentToolNames pulled from BRAIN_TOOL_ALLOWLIST. Every plugin
warning + loaded-plugin line prints to stderr, mirroring the openclaw-
seam startup convention.

src/core/minions/protected-names.ts — subagent + subagent_aggregator
join the protected set. MCP submit_job returns permission_denied; only
trusted-CLI callers (with allowProtectedSubmit) can insert these rows.

src/cli.ts — adds 'agent' to CLI_ONLY + dispatches it like 'jobs'.

Test fallout: subagent-handler.test.ts + subagent-transcript.test.ts
helpers now submit under allowProtectedSubmit (they insert rows named
'subagent' directly against the queue). 23 new tests in agent-cli.test.ts
cover: flag parsing (including --detach implies !follow, --tools comma
split, -- terminator, unknown flag throw), --since parse (ISO, relative
5m/2h/1d, unparseable error), protected-name guard for all three names,
trusted-submit gate, and a fan-out integration check that verifies the
aggregator + children shape after --fanout-manifest.

* test(e2e): rename max_children test's spawned jobs off the protected 'subagent' name

The spawn-storm test submitted 50 literal-string 'subagent' children to
exercise the max_children row-lock serialization. In v0.15 'subagent' is
a PROTECTED_JOB_NAME (CLI-only; trusted submit required), so the old
literal submission now throws before reaching the row-lock check.

The test is about max_children semantics, not the v0.15 subagent runtime
specifically — rename the child name to 'child_worker' so the test
exercises the exact same queue.add path without tripping the new guard.

* chore(ship): v0.15.0 — VERSION, CHANGELOG, README, upgrading-agents, CLAUDE.md

Bumps VERSION → 0.15.0 and package.json → 0.15.0 (resolves the pre-existing
drift — on master, VERSION=0.14.0 but package.json=0.13.1; src/version.ts
reads package.json, so this is what the binary prints now).

CHANGELOG lands the release-summary entry in the GStack voice + the full
itemized change list (11 new modules, 3 new tables, queue correctness
fixes, trust-model additions, 159 new unit tests). Voice rules respected
— no em dashes, no AI vocabulary, real file names + real numbers.

README gets a "Durable agents: `gbrain agent` (v0.15)" section next to
the Minions block, with the three canonical CLI shapes (single run,
fanout-manifest, logs --follow) and a pointer to plugin-authors.md.

docs/UPGRADING_DOWNSTREAM_AGENTS.md gets a full v0.15.0 section covering
the four adoption steps downstream agents (Wintermute and similar) need:
(1) worker opt-in via GBRAIN_ALLOW_LLM_JOBS, (2) moving custom subagent
defs to a plugin repo, (3) replacing ephemeral subagent runs with durable
`gbrain agent run`, (4) the put_page namespace rule for agent-driven writes.

CLAUDE.md updated with concise per-file descriptions for every new module:
the handler, aggregator, audit, rate-leases, wait-for-completion,
transcript, plugin-loader, brain-allowlist, tool-defs extraction, agent
CLI + logs CLI, and the registerBuiltinHandlers wiring for subagent
handlers + plugin-loader.

Verified: binary builds (940 modules, 89ms compile), prints `gbrain 0.15.0`,
`gbrain agent --help` shows the new subcommand shape. 170 new tests pass
(full v0.15 surface). Full unit suite passes bar one parallel-load
flake on a pre-existing E2E (graph-quality, passes in isolation).

* feat(minions): drop GBRAIN_ALLOW_LLM_JOBS flag — subagent handlers always-on

The env flag was ceremony. Shell jobs need the flag because they execute
arbitrary CLI commands (RCE surface). Subagent jobs don't — they call the
Anthropic API with whatever ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is in env, so the key is
already the cost gate (no key → SDK fails on the first turn). And
who-can-submit is already protected by PROTECTED_JOB_NAMES +
TrustedSubmitOpts: MCP callers get permission_denied; only `gbrain agent
run` with allowProtectedSubmit can insert subagent / subagent_aggregator
rows. The flag added nothing the existing guards didn't already give us.

registerBuiltinHandlers now always registers subagent + subagent_aggregator
and loads GBRAIN_PLUGIN_PATH plugins. Worker startup prints:

  [minion worker] subagent handlers enabled

instead of the conditional enabled/disabled pair. Plugin discovery runs
unconditionally — empty PATH is a no-op.

README, CHANGELOG, docs/UPGRADING_DOWNSTREAM_AGENTS, CLAUDE.md, agent CLI
help text, and subagent handler docstring all updated to drop the flag
reference. Shell handler's GBRAIN_ALLOW_SHELL_JOBS gate is untouched —
separate concern (RCE, not billing).

Full suite: 1859 pass, 0 fail.

* docs: scrub private agent-fork name from all public artifacts

Enforces the rule added to CLAUDE.md (privacy section): never say
`Wintermute` in any CHANGELOG, README, doc, PR, or commit message.
Reader-facing copy says `your OpenClaw` (the term covers every
downstream OpenClaw deployment — Wintermute, Hermes, AlphaClaw — in
one umbrella the reader already recognizes). First-person /
origin-story copy says `Garry's OpenClaw` (honest that this is the
production deployment driving the feature, without exposing the
private agent's name).

Swept across:
  CHANGELOG.md (v0.15 entry + 4 historical mentions)
  README.md
  TODOS.md
  docs/UPGRADING_DOWNSTREAM_AGENTS.md
  docs/guides/plugin-authors.md (including example plugin names)
  docs/guides/plugin-handlers.md

  src/core/enrichment/completeness.ts
  src/core/minions/plugin-loader.ts
  src/core/operations.ts
  src/core/output/scaffold.ts

Intentionally kept (these mentions define/test the rule itself):
  CLAUDE.md — the privacy rule section necessarily uses the literal
  name to define the restriction and examples
  test/plugin-loader.test.ts — fixture name in a plugin-loading test;
  renaming risks breaking assertion logic
  test/integrations.test.ts — the word appears in a privacy-regex
  test that explicitly enforces name redaction
  test/doctor-minions-check.test.ts — a comment referencing the rule
  CEO plan artifact at ~/.gstack/projects/… — private, not distributed

Binary builds (941 modules), 198/198 relevant tests pass, `gbrain --version`
prints `0.15.0`.

* chore: gitignore bun --compile artifacts with a glob, not specific hashes

Each `bun build --compile` emits a fresh hash-named `.*-*.bun-build` file
in cwd. The prior entries listed two specific hashes that were already
stale, so every build after those created a new untracked file requiring
manual cleanup.

Replace the two stale entries with `*.bun-build` so any current or future
compile artifact is ignored automatically.

Verified: ran `bun build --compile`, got two new `.*-*.bun-build` files,
`git status` stays clean.

* chore(ship): rename v0.15.0 → v0.16.0

gbrain master is at 0.14.2. Other 0.15.x PRs may land before/after
this one — we bump the minor (new capability) and lock to 0.16.0 so
ordering with concurrent work doesn't matter.

Touches:
- VERSION: 0.15.0 → 0.16.0
- package.json: 0.15.0 → 0.16.0
- Rename src/commands/migrations/v0_15_0.ts → v0_16_0.ts (+ all
  version strings inside + import in index.ts registry)
- Rename test/migrations-v0_15_0.test.ts → migrations-v0_16_0.test.ts
- test/apply-migrations.test.ts: skippedFuture lists now reference
  '0.16.0'
- test/put-page-namespace.test.ts + test/mcp-tool-defs.test.ts: Lane
  comment refs updated
- src/schema.sql + src/core/pglite-schema.ts: "v0.15.0" section
  comment updated; src/core/schema-embedded.ts regenerated
- CHANGELOG.md: top entry renamed to [0.16.0]; inline v0_15_0 /
  v0.15.0 refs swept
- docs/UPGRADING_DOWNSTREAM_AGENTS.md: section heading v0.15.0 → v0.16.0

Verified: `gbrain --version` prints 0.16.0, migration registry /
buildPlan / put_page / mcp-tool-defs / handlers tests all green
(49/49).

* docs: reframe v0.16 durability headline around OpenClaw crashes

"Laptop closed mid-run" framing implied a consumer workflow. Real pain is
OpenClaw subagents dying daily on worker kill, memory blip, or timeout.

a4df40fe5c feat: v0.15.2 - bulk-action progress streaming (stderr reporter, agent-visible heartbeats) (#293)
* feat(progress): step 1 - shared ProgressReporter + CliOptions

Adds the foundation for v0.14.2's bulk-action progress streaming work:

- src/core/progress.ts: dependency-free reporter with auto/human/json/quiet
  modes, TTY-aware rendering, time+item rate gating, heartbeat helper for
  slow single queries, dot-composed child phases, EPIPE defense (both sync
  throw and async 'error' event), and a singleton module-level signal
  coordinator so SIGINT/SIGTERM emits abort events for all live phases
  without leaking per-instance listeners.

- src/core/cli-options.ts: parseGlobalFlags() for --quiet /
  --progress-json / --progress-interval=<ms> (both space and = forms),
  plus cliOptsToProgressOptions() that resolves to the right mode. Non-TTY
  default is human-plain one-line-per-event; JSON is explicit opt-in so
  shell pipelines don't suddenly see structured noise.

- test/progress.test.ts (17 cases): mode resolution, rate gating, no-fake-
  totals on heartbeat paths, EPIPE paths, SIGINT singleton, child phase
  composition.

- test/cli-options.test.ts (14 cases): flag parsing, invalid values,
  interleaved flags, mode resolution.

Follow-ups wire doctor/embed/files/export/extract/import/sync/migrate/
repair-jsonb/backlinks/orphans/lint/integrity/eval/autopilot/jobs plus
the apply-migrations orchestrators through this reporter, and route
Minion handlers to job.updateProgress instead of stderr. See the plan
in ~/.claude/plans/.

1682 unit tests pass.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(progress): step 2 - wire global flags into cli.ts

Parse --quiet / --progress-json / --progress-interval from argv BEFORE
command dispatch, strip them, stash resolved CliOptions on a module-level
singleton (same pattern as Commander's program.opts()) and on every
OperationContext created for shared-op dispatch.

- src/cli.ts: parseGlobalFlags(rawArgs) at the top of main(); setCliOptions
  once; dispatch sees only the stripped argv. Fixes the "gbrain
  --progress-json doctor" unknown-command case that Codex flagged.
- src/core/cli-options.ts: expose setCliOptions/getCliOptions/
  _resetCliOptionsForTest singleton. Commands that want progress call
  getCliOptions() to construct their reporter.
- src/core/operations.ts: OperationContext gains optional cliOpts field
  so shared-op handlers (and MCP-invoked ops that need a reporter) can
  read the same settings. MCP callers leave it undefined and consumers
  default to quiet.
- test/cli-options.test.ts: +4 cases covering singleton round-trip and
  an integration smoke spawning `bun src/cli.ts --progress-json --version`
  to prove the global flag survives dispatch.

45 relevant unit tests pass (progress + cli-options + cli.test.ts).

* feat(progress): step 3a - doctor + orphans heartbeat streaming

Doctor on a 52K-page brain used to sit silent for 10+ minutes while the
DB checks ran, then get killed by an agent timeout. Wired through the
new reporter so agents see which check is running and the slow ones
heartbeat every second.

doctor.ts:
- Start a single `doctor.db_checks` phase around the DB section, with a
  per-check heartbeat before each step (connection, pgvector, rls,
  schema_version, embeddings, graph_coverage, integrity, jsonb_integrity,
  markdown_body_completeness).
- jsonb_integrity now scans 5 targets, not 4: added page_versions.
  frontmatter so the check surface matches `repair-jsonb` (per Codex
  review of the plan — the old 4-target scan missed a known repair site).
  Per-target heartbeat so 50K-row scans show incremental progress.
- markdown_body_completeness: wrap the existing query in a 1s heartbeat
  timer. The regex scan over rd.data ->> 'content' can't be paginated
  usefully; this just lets agents see life during the sequential scan.
  No fake totals — the LIMIT 100 query has no meaningful total count.
- integrity sample: same heartbeat pattern around the 500-page scan.

orphans.ts:
- findOrphans() wraps the NOT EXISTS anti-join in a 1s heartbeat.
  Keyset pagination was considered and rejected: without an index on
  links.to_page_id it's no faster than the full scan, and may re-plan
  the anti-join per batch. A schema migration adding that index is the
  right fix and is queued for v0.14.3.

Follow-ups:
- Step 3b: wire embed/files/export (the \r-only stdout offenders).
- Step 5: end-to-end progress test spawning `gbrain doctor --progress-json`
  against a fixture brain, asserting stderr events and clean stdout.

All existing unit tests continue to pass (76/76 in doctor + orphans +
progress + cli-options).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(progress): step 3b - embed + files + export stderr progress

Replaces the \r-on-stdout progress pattern in the three worst offenders
(embed, files sync, export) with the shared reporter on stderr. Stdout
now carries only final summaries, so scripts and tests that grep for
counts ("Embedded N chunks", "Files sync complete", "Exported N pages")
still work when output is piped.

- embed.ts: runEmbedCore accepts an optional onProgress callback. The
  CLI wrapper builds a reporter and passes reporter.tick(); Minion
  handlers will pass job.updateProgress in Step 4. Worker-pool is
  single-threaded JS so no rate-gate race (per Codex review #18).
- files.ts syncFiles(): tick per file; summary preserved on stdout.
- export.ts: tick per page; summary preserved on stdout.

Also fixes a --quiet flag collision. `skillpack-check` has its own
--quiet mode (suppress all stdout). parseGlobalFlags strips --quiet
globally now, and skillpack-check reads the resolved CliOptions
singleton via getCliOptions() instead of re-parsing argv. Test updated
to match the stripping behavior.

1686 unit tests pass.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(progress): step 3c - extract + import + sync reporter streaming

Extract, import, and sync now stream per-file progress to stderr through
the shared reporter. All three kept their stdout summaries + JSON
action-events intact so existing tests + agent scripts are unaffected.

- extract.ts (4 paths: links/timeline × fs/db): replaced the ad-hoc
  `process.stderr.write({event:"progress"...})` lines with reporter
  ticks. Same channel (stderr), canonical schema now, visible in both
  text and --json modes. Stdout action-events (`add_link` /
  `add_timeline`) untouched — tests grep them.
- import.ts: the logProgress() function that printed every 100 files to
  stdout is now a progress.tick() call per file. Rate-gated by the
  reporter. Stdout still gets the final "Import complete (Xs)" summary
  and the --json payload.
- sync.ts: three new phases (`sync.deletes`, `sync.renames`,
  `sync.imports`) tick per file, so big syncs show each step rather than
  a single end-of-run summary. Phase hierarchy ready to be child()-chained
  into runImport / runEmbed later, per Codex review #26.

Updated the #132 nested-transaction regression test in test/sync.test.ts
to also accept the new hoisted-loop shape — the guarantee (this loop is
not wrapped in engine.transaction) still holds.

1686 unit tests pass.

* feat(progress): step 3d - migrate/repair/backlinks/lint/integrity/eval

Wires the remaining bulk commands through the reporter:

- migrate-engine: phase starts (migrate.copy_pages, migrate.copy_links),
  per-page tick. Old \"Progress: N/total\" stdout logs replaced by
  stderr ticks; final stdout summary preserved.
- repair-jsonb: per-column start + a heartbeat timer while each UPDATE
  runs (minutes on 50K-row tables). CRITICAL: stdout stays clean so
  migrations/v0_12_2.ts's JSON.parse(child.stdout) still works. Per
  Codex review #12.
- backlinks: 1s heartbeat around findBacklinkGaps() (sync double-walk
  of the brain dir).
- lint: tick per page; per-issue stdout output preserved.
- integrity auto: tick per page in the main resolver loop. The separate
  ~/.gbrain/integrity-progress.jsonl resume marker is untouched (its
  role shifts from live progress reporting to resume-only).
- eval: add an onProgress option to core's runEval(), CLI wraps with a
  reporter. Phases: eval.single / eval.ab. Tick per query.

core/search/eval.ts gains a RunEvalOptions type so future callers (MCP
eval op, Minion handlers) can also hook in without the reporter.

1686 unit tests pass.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(progress): step 3e - onProgress callbacks on core libs

- src/core/embedding.ts: embedBatch() gains an optional
  EmbedBatchOptions.onBatchComplete callback, fired after each 100-item
  sub-batch. CLI wrappers pass reporter.tick; Minion handlers can pass
  job.updateProgress.
- src/core/enrichment-service.ts: enrichEntities() config gains
  onProgress(done, total, name) fired after each entity. Same split:
  CLI -> reporter, Minion -> DB-backed progress.

No CLI behavior change on its own. Wiring these callbacks into the
Minion handlers is Step 4.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(progress): step 4 - orchestrators + upgrade + minion handlers

- cli-options.ts: childGlobalFlags() returns the flag suffix to append
  to child gbrain subprocesses. Empty string by default, " --quiet
  --progress-json" when the parent has them set, so child behavior
  inherits the parent's progress-mode without scattering string-concat
  logic across every execSync site.

- migrations/v0_12_2.ts: each execSync inherits the parent's global
  flags. Phase C (repair-jsonb --dry-run --json) pins explicit stdio to
  ['ignore','pipe','inherit'] so child stderr streams straight through
  while stdout stays captured for JSON.parse. Per Codex review #12.
- migrations/v0_12_0.ts + v0_11_0.ts: same childGlobalFlags wiring at
  each gbrain-subcommand execSync.

- upgrade.ts: post-upgrade timeout bumped 300s → 30min (1_800_000 ms)
  with GBRAIN_POST_UPGRADE_TIMEOUT_MS override. The old 300s cap killed
  v0.12.0 graph-backfill migrations on 50K+ brains; the heartbeat
  wiring added in v0.14.2 makes long waits observable, so a generous
  ceiling no longer means users stare at a silent terminal.

- jobs.ts: the embed Minion handler passes job.updateProgress as the
  onProgress callback, so per-job progress is durable in minion_jobs
  and readable via `gbrain jobs get <id>`. Primary Minion progress
  channel is DB-backed — stderr from `jobs work` stays coarse for
  daemon liveness only. Per Codex review #20.

1686 unit tests pass.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(progress): step 5 - E2E doctor-progress test + CI guard

scripts/check-progress-to-stdout.sh greps src/ for the banned
`process.stdout.write('\r…')` pattern that v0.14.2 removed from the
bulk-action codepaths. Wired into the `bun run test` script so any
future regression that puts progress back on stdout fails fast. An
empty allowlist documents the position: every known call site was
migrated; new exceptions need a rationale in the allowlist.

test/e2e/doctor-progress.test.ts (Tier 1, needs Postgres + pgvector):
- `gbrain --progress-json doctor --json`: stderr carries JSONL progress
  events with the canonical {event, phase, ts} shape, starts + finishes
  for `doctor.db_checks`. Stdout stays parseable JSON — no progress
  pollution.
- `gbrain doctor` (no flag): human-plain progress goes to stderr only,
  stdout stays free of `[doctor.db_checks]`.
- `gbrain --quiet doctor`: reporter emits nothing; doctor still runs to
  completion.

test/cli-options.test.ts: +2 spawning integration tests. One verifies
`gbrain --progress-json --version` keeps stdout clean of progress events
(single-shot commands that don't use a reporter aren't affected). One
guards the skillpack-check --quiet regression — --quiet suppresses
stdout by reading the resolved CliOptions singleton, not re-parsing argv.

Full test matrix:
  bun run test           -> 1726 pass / 184 skipped (no DB) / 0 fail
  bun run test:e2e       -> 136 pass / 13 skipped / 0 fail

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(progress): step 6 - docs + v0.14.2 release bump

- VERSION + package.json bumped to 0.14.2.
- docs/progress-events.md (new): canonical JSON event schema reference.
  Stable from v0.14.2, additive only. Lists every phase name shipped
  in this release, the five event types (start/tick/heartbeat/finish/
  abort), the TTY/non-TTY rendering rules, subprocess inheritance
  semantics, and the Minion DB-backed progress model.
- CLAUDE.md: "Bulk-action progress reporting" section under the build
  instructions; Key files entries for src/core/progress.ts,
  src/core/cli-options.ts, scripts/check-progress-to-stdout.sh, and
  docs/progress-events.md; doctor.ts entry updated to note the v0.14.2
  5-target jsonb_integrity scan + heartbeat wiring.
- CHANGELOG.md v0.14.2: full release summary per project voice rules.
  The "numbers that matter" table, per-command before/after grid,
  backward-compat warnings for stdout→stderr moves, and an itemized
  changes section covering reporter/CLI plumbing/schema/Minion
  handlers/doctor fixes/upgrade timeout/CI guard/tests. No em dashes.
  Real file paths, real commands, real numbers.
- skills/migrations/v0.14.2.md (new): agent migration note. Mechanical
  step is "nothing" since v0.14.2 is purely additive. Walks agents
  through the three new global flags, the 14 wired commands, the event
  schema cheat sheet, Minion progress via job.updateProgress, and
  scripts/verification commands.

Full test matrix:
  bun run test (unit + guards) -> 1726 pass / 184 skipped / 0 fail
  bun run test:e2e (Postgres)  -> 141 pass / 8 skipped / 0 fail

* chore: bump version to 0.15.2, restore master's [0.14.2] CHANGELOG entry

Master sits at 0.14.2 (reliability wave). This PR lands on top as 0.15.2
(progress streaming wave). Splits the merge-time combined CHANGELOG entry
back into two discrete release sections so history stays honest:

- [0.15.2] = progress reporter, CliOptions, 14 wired commands, Minion
  embed handler, doctor jsonb_integrity 5-target fix, upgrade timeout bump,
  CI guard, progress unit+E2E tests.
- [0.14.2] = master's eight root-cause bug fixes, restored verbatim from
  origin/master.

Touched files:
- VERSION + package.json: 0.14.2 -> 0.15.2 (next patch off master).
- skills/migrations/v0.14.2.md -> skills/migrations/v0.15.2.md (rename
  + rewrite frontmatter + body to v0.15.2).
- CHANGELOG.md: split into two entries; progress-wave refs renamed
  v0.14.2 -> v0.15.2; reliability-wave entry restored from master.
- src/core/progress.ts, src/commands/doctor.ts, src/commands/sync.ts,
  src/commands/upgrade.ts, docs/progress-events.md, test/sync.test.ts:
  progress-wave v0.14.2 references -> v0.15.2. The remaining v0.14.2
  references in test/e2e/migration-flow.test.ts (Bug 3 context) and
  CLAUDE.md (reliability-wave key commands, Bug 3 ledger move) correctly
  point at master's 0.14.2 release.

Test matrix after version bump:
  bun run test -> 1780 pass / 179 skipped / 0 fail

ff10796a00 fix(wave): v0.15.1 - 4 hot issues + scope expansion (#248)
* fix(wave): 4 hot issues + 3 scope expansions (v0.13.1)

Addresses four user-filed regressions after v0.13.0 plus three adjacent
footgun closures.

* #170 — CREATE INDEX [CONCURRENTLY] IF NOT EXISTS idx_pages_updated_at_desc
  on pages (updated_at DESC). Engine-aware migration v12 with invalid-index
  cleanup on Postgres, plain CREATE on PGLite. ~700x on 30k+ row brains.
  Contributed by @fuleinist (#215).

* #219 — Minions schema default max_stalled 1 -> 5. v13 migration ALTERs
  the default and UPDATEs existing non-terminal rows (waiting/active/
  delayed/waiting-children/paused) so live queues get rescued on upgrade.
  Adds MinionJobInput.max_stalled with [1,100] clamp. New --max-stalled
  CLI flag on `jobs submit`. Reported by @macbotmini-eng.

* #218 — package.json postinstall surfaces errors instead of silencing.
  trustedDependencies whitelists @electric-sql/pglite. doctor
  schema_version check fails loudly when migrations never ran and links
  to #218. README + INSTALL_FOR_AGENTS warn against `bun install -g`.
  Reported by @gopalpatel.

* #223 — @electric-sql/pglite pinned to exactly 0.4.3 (was ^0.4.4).
  PGLiteEngine.connect() wraps PGlite.create() errors with a message
  pointing at the issue + gbrain doctor. Does NOT suggest 'missing
  migrations' as a cause (create-time abort happens before migrations
  run). Pin is unverified against macOS 26.3; error-wrap is the safety
  net. Reported by @AndreLYL.

* Scope: `gbrain jobs submit` gains --backoff-type/--backoff-delay/
  --backoff-jitter/--timeout-ms/--idempotency-key (MinionJobInput audit).
* Scope: `gbrain jobs smoke --sigkill-rescue` regression case (opt-in,
  CI-only) that simulates a killed worker and asserts the new default
  rescues.
* Scope: `gbrain doctor --index-audit` reports zero-scan Postgres indexes
  as drop candidates (informational; no auto-drop).

Infrastructure:
* Migration interface extended with sqlFor: { postgres?, pglite? } and
  transaction: boolean. Runner picks the engine-specific branch and
  bypasses engine.transaction() when transaction:false (required for
  CONCURRENTLY). BrainEngine.kind readonly discriminator added.
* scripts/check-jsonb-pattern.sh CI guard extended to block
  `max_stalled DEFAULT 1` from regressing.

Tests:
* 15 new unit tests: v12/v13 structural + behavioral assertions,
  max_stalled default/clamp/backfill, PGLite error-wrap source guard,
  engine kind discriminator.
* 3 regression tests pinned by IRON RULE.
* Full unit suite: 1416 pass.
* Full E2E suite against Postgres 16 + pgvector: 126 pass.

* chore: bump version and changelog (v0.13.1)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: sync documentation for v0.13.1

CLAUDE.md "Key files" and "Commands" sections refreshed to match the
v0.13.1 fix wave:

- Note `BrainEngine.kind` discriminator on engine.ts
- Document v0.13.1 connect() error-wrap on pglite-engine.ts
- Refresh src/core/minions/ layout (no shell handler, no protected-names,
  no quiet-hours/stagger — that was v0.13-development scaffolding that
  did not ship)
- Add src/core/migrate.ts entry with `Migration` interface extensions
  (`sqlFor`, `transaction: false`)
- Document new `gbrain jobs submit` flags (--max-stalled, --backoff-type,
  --backoff-delay, --backoff-jitter, --timeout-ms, --idempotency-key)
- Document `gbrain jobs smoke --sigkill-rescue` regression guard
- Document `gbrain doctor --index-audit` and the schema_version=0
  surface that catches #218 postinstall failures
- Extend check-jsonb-pattern.sh note with the max_stalled DEFAULT 1
  regression guard
- Touch up test file blurbs for migrate.test.ts, pglite-engine.test.ts,
  minions.test.ts with v0.13.1 coverage

* test(e2e): run files sequentially to eliminate shared-DB race

The E2E suite was flaky. ~3 of every 5 runs had 4-10 failures clustered
in Links, Timeline, Versions, Minions resilience, Parallel Import, and
Page CRUD tests. Symptoms included "expected 16 pages, got 8" (half),
"expected 1 link inserted, got 0", timeline entries missing after
round-trip, and similar data-shape mismatches.

Root cause: bun test runs test FILES in parallel (each in a worker
process). 13 E2E files share one DATABASE_URL, and `setupDB()` in
`test/e2e/helpers.ts` does `TRUNCATE ... CASCADE` on all tables before
each file's `importFixtures()`. File A's TRUNCATE would race with file
B's in-flight INSERT stream, producing the observed half-populated or
wrong-count states.

An earlier attempt used a Postgres advisory lock held on a dedicated
single-connection client for the lifetime of each file's run. It broke
because bun's default 5000 ms hook timeout fires on queued beforeAll()
calls: with 13 files serializing through the lock, files 2-13 would
time out waiting for file 1 to finish.

This commit switches to sequential file execution at the harness level
via scripts/run-e2e.sh, which loops through test/e2e/*.test.ts one at
a time, tracks aggregate pass/fail counts, and exits non-zero on the
first failing file. No lock, no timeout issues, no changes to any test
file. package.json test:e2e points at the new script.

Verified: 5 back-to-back runs against the same Postgres container,
each completing in ~5 min. Every run: 13 files, 138 tests, 0 fails.

* chore: bump version to 0.15.1 (fix wave locked to MINOR line)

Master v0.14.2 was the last /investigate root-cause wave on the
v0.14.x line. This fix wave opens v0.15.x: four hot issues (#170,
#218, #219, #223) close v0.13.x regressions that v0.14.x didn't
cover, so the MINOR bump reflects the semantic shift — new schema
migrations (v14, v15), a new CLI surface (`--max-stalled`,
`--sigkill-rescue`, `--index-audit`), a new BrainEngine contract
(`kind` discriminator + extended `Migration` interface), and a new
install-time contract (PGLite 0.4.3 pin + `trustedDependencies`).

Locked to 0.15.1 in advance: other work may land before/after this
PR, but the version is fixed so reviewers can cite a stable number.

7f156c8873 feat: v0.15.0 llms.txt + llms-full.txt + AGENTS.md (#294)
* feat: llms.txt + llms-full.txt + AGENTS.md (v0.15.0)

Ship three new public artifacts at the repo root so agents that aren't
Claude Code can discover GBrain documentation cleanly:

- AGENTS.md — ~45-line install + operating protocol for non-Claude agents
  (Codex, Cursor, OpenClaw, Aider). Covers install, read order, trust
  boundary, config/debug/migration pointers, fork regeneration. Uses
  relative links so it survives fork/rename.
- llms.txt — llmstxt.org-spec index (H1 + blockquote + Core entry points /
  Configuration / Debugging / Migrations / Philosophy / Optional H2s).
- llms-full.txt — same index with core docs inlined for single-fetch
  ingestion. ~225KB, well under the 600KB FULL_SIZE_BUDGET.

Generator-driven via scripts/build-llms.ts + scripts/llms-config.ts.
LLMS_REPO_BASE env var makes it fork-friendly. bun run build:llms
regenerates both outputs deterministically.

test/build-llms.test.ts has 7 cases: paths resolve on disk, generator
idempotent, llms.txt spec shape, checked-in files match generator output
(drift guard), content contract (RESOLVER / AGENTS / INSTALL referenced),
AGENTS mirrors README + INSTALL_FOR_AGENTS install path, llms-full.txt
under size budget.

Leverage point per Codex review: README.md + INSTALL_FOR_AGENTS.md
install prompts now tell agents to fetch AGENTS.md first. Without this,
the new files were invisible.

Drive-by fix: INSTALL_FOR_AGENTS.md:136 had `git pull origin main` while
the repo's default branch is master (origin/HEAD -> master). Corrected.

Plan + reviews: /plan-eng-review CLEARED, /codex adversarial review
found 15 issues — 7 folded in directly, 3 user tension decisions, 5
stayed as NOT-in-scope with reasoning.

Version bumps to 0.15.0 (new public-artifact feature surface per Step 12
of /ship feature-signal heuristic).

* chore: normalize VERSION to 3-digit to match master

master uses 3-digit semver (0.14.2); my earlier /ship bumped VERSION to
the 4-digit gstack format (0.15.0.0). Revert to 0.15.0 to match
package.json (already 3-digit) and master's convention.

c0b621923b fix: JSONB double-encode + splitBody wiki + parseEmbedding (v0.12.1) (#196)
* fix: splitBody and inferType for wiki-style markdown content

- splitBody now requires explicit timeline sentinel (<!-- timeline -->,
  --- timeline ---, or --- directly before ## Timeline / ## History).
  A bare --- in body text is a markdown horizontal rule, not a separator.
  This fixes the 83% content truncation @knee5 reported on a 1,991-article
  wiki where 4,856 of 6,680 wikilinks were lost.

- serializeMarkdown emits <!-- timeline --> sentinel for round-trip stability.

- inferType extended with /writing/, /wiki/analysis/, /wiki/guides/,
  /wiki/hardware/, /wiki/architecture/, /wiki/concepts/. Path order is
  most-specific-first so projects/blog/writing/essay.md → writing,
  not project.

- PageType union extended: writing, analysis, guide, hardware, architecture.

Updates test/import-file.test.ts to use the new sentinel.

1. JSONB double-encode (postgres-engine.ts:107,668,846 + files.ts:254):
   ${JSON.stringify(value)}::jsonb in postgres.js v3 stringified again
   on the wire, storing JSONB columns as quoted string literals. Every
   frontmatter->>'key' returned NULL on Postgres-backed brains; GIN
   indexes were inert. Switched to sql.json(value), which is the
   postgres.js-native JSONB encoder (Parameter with OID 3802).
   Affected columns: pages.frontmatter, raw_data.data,
   ingest_log.pages_updated, files.metadata. page_versions.frontmatter
   is downstream via INSERT...SELECT and propagates the fix.

2. pgvector embeddings returning as strings (utils.ts):
   getEmbeddingsByChunkIds returned "[0.1,0.2,...]" instead of
   Float32Array on Supabase, producing [NaN] cosine scores.
   Adds parseEmbedding() helper handling Float32Array, numeric arrays,
   and pgvector string format. Throws loud on malformed vectors
   (per Codex's no-silent-NaN requirement); returns null for
   non-vector strings (treated as "no embedding here"). rowToChunk
   delegates to parseEmbedding.

E2E regression test at test/e2e/postgres-jsonb.test.ts asserts
jsonb_typeof = 'object' AND col->>'k' returns expected scalar across
all 5 affected columns — the test that should have caught the original
bug. Runs in CI via the existing pgvector service.

* feat: extract wikilink syntax with ancestor-search slug resolution

extractMarkdownLinks now handles [[page]] and [[page|Display Text]]
alongside standard [text](page.md). For wiki KBs where authors omit
leading ../ (thinking in wiki-root-relative terms), resolveSlug
walks ancestor directories until it finds a matching slug.

Without this, wikilinks under tech/wiki/analysis/ targeting
[[../../finance/wiki/concepts/foo]] silently dangled when the
correct relative depth was 3 × ../ instead of 2.

* feat: gbrain repair-jsonb + v0.12.1 migration + CI grep guard

- New gbrain repair-jsonb command. Detects rows where
  jsonb_typeof(col) = 'string' and rewrites them via
  (col #>> '{}')::jsonb across 5 affected columns:
  pages.frontmatter, raw_data.data, ingest_log.pages_updated,
  files.metadata, page_versions.frontmatter. Idempotent — re-running
  is a no-op. PGLite engines short-circuit cleanly (the bug never
  affected the parameterized encode path PGLite uses). --dry-run
  shows what would be repaired; --json for scripting.

- New v0_12_1.ts migration orchestrator. Phases: schema → repair → verify.
  Modeled on v0_12_0 pattern, registered in migrations/index.ts.
  Runs automatically via gbrain upgrade / apply-migrations.

- CI grep guard at scripts/check-jsonb-pattern.sh fails the build if
  anyone reintroduces the ${JSON.stringify(x)}::jsonb interpolation
  pattern. Wired into bun test via package.json. Best-effort static
  analysis (multi-line and helper-wrapped variants are caught by the
  E2E round-trip test instead).

- Updates apply-migrations.test.ts expectations to account for the new
  v0.12.1 entry in the registry.

d8613366a5 Minions v7 + v0.11.1 canonical migration + skillify (#130)
* feat: add minion_jobs schema, migration v5, and executeRaw to BrainEngine

Foundation for the Minions job queue system. Adds:
- minion_jobs table (20 columns) with CHECK constraints, partial indexes,
  and RLS. Inspired by BullMQ's job model, adapted for Postgres.
- Migration v5 creates the table for existing databases.
- executeRaw<T>() method on BrainEngine interface for raw SQL access,
  needed by the Minions module for claim queries (FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED),
  token-fenced writes, and atomic stall detection.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: Minions job queue — queue, worker, backoff, types

BullMQ-inspired Postgres-native job queue built into GBrain. No Redis.
No external dependencies. Postgres transactions replace Lua scripts.

- MinionQueue: submit, claim (FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED), complete/fail
  (token-fenced), atomic stall detection (CTE), delayed promotion,
  parent-child resolution, prune, stats
- MinionWorker: handler registry, lock renewal, graceful SIGTERM,
  exponential backoff with jitter, UnrecoverableError bypass
- MinionJobContext: updateProgress(), log(), isActive() for handlers
- 8-state machine: waiting/active/completed/failed/delayed/dead/
  cancelled/waiting-children

Patterns stolen from: BullMQ (lock tokens, stall detection, flows),
Sidekiq (dead set, backoff formula), Inngest (checkpoint/resume).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test: 43 tests for Minions job queue

Full coverage of the Minions module against PGLite in-memory:
- Queue CRUD (9): submit, get, list, remove, cancel, retry, duplicate
- State machine (6): waiting→active→completed/failed, retry→delayed→waiting
- Backoff (4): exponential, fixed, jitter range, attempts_made=0 edge
- Stall detection (3): detect stalled, counter increment, max→dead
- Dependencies (5): parent waits, fail_parent, continue, remove_dep, orphan
- Worker lifecycle (5): register, start-without-handlers, claim+execute,
  non-Error throws, UnrecoverableError bypass
- Lock management (3): renewal, token mismatch, claim sets lock fields
- Claim mechanics (4): empty queue, priority ordering, name filtering,
  delayed promotion timing
- Cancel & retry (2): cancel active, retry dead

* feat: Minions CLI commands and MCP operations

Wire Minions into the GBrain CLI and MCP layer:

CLI (gbrain jobs):
  submit <name> [--params JSON] [--follow] [--dry-run]
  list [--status S] [--queue Q] [--limit N]
  get <id> — detailed view with attempt history
  cancel/retry/delete <id>
  prune [--older-than 30d]
  stats — job health dashboard
  work [--queue Q] [--concurrency N] — Postgres-only worker daemon

6 MCP operations (contract-first, auto-exposed via MCP server):
  submit_job, get_job, list_jobs, cancel_job, retry_job, get_job_progress

Built-in handlers: sync, embed, lint, import. --follow runs inline.
Worker daemon blocked on PGLite (exclusive file lock).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: update project documentation for Minions job queue

CLAUDE.md: added Minions files to key files, updated operation count (36),
BrainEngine method count (38), test file count (45), added jobs CLI commands.
CHANGELOG.md: added Minions entry to v0.10.0 (background jobs, retry, stall
detection, worker daemon).

* feat: Minions v2 — agent orchestration primitives (pause/resume, inbox, tokens, replay)

Adds the foundation for Minions as universal agent orchestration infrastructure.
GBrain's Postgres-native job queue now supports durable, observable, steerable
background agents. The OpenClaw plugin (separate repo) will consume these via
library import, not MCP, for zero-latency local integration.

## New capabilities

- **Concurrent worker** — Promise pool replaces sequential loop. Per-job
  AbortController for cooperative cancellation. Graceful shutdown waits for
  all in-flight jobs via Promise.allSettled.
- **Pause/resume** — pauseJob clears the lock and fires AbortSignal on active
  jobs. Handlers check ctx.signal.aborted and exit cleanly. resumeJob returns
  paused jobs to waiting. Catch block skips failJob when signal.aborted.
- **Inbox (separate table)** — minion_inbox table for sidechannel messages.
  sendMessage with sender validation (parent job or admin). readInbox is
  token-fenced and marks read_at atomically. Separate table avoids row bloat
  from rewriting JSONB on every send.
- **Token accounting** — tokens_input/tokens_output/tokens_cache_read columns.
  updateTokens accumulates; completeJob rolls child tokens up to parent.
  USD cost computed at read time (no cost_usd column — pricing too volatile).
- **Job replay** — replayJob clones a terminal job with optional data overrides.
  New job, fresh attempts, no parent link.

## Handler contract additions

MinionJobContext now provides:
- `signal: AbortSignal` — cooperative cancellation
- `updateTokens(tokens)` — accumulate token usage
- `readInbox()` — check for sidechannel messages
- `log()` — now accepts string or TranscriptEntry

## MCP operations added

pause_job, resume_job, replay_job, send_job_message — all auto-generate CLI
commands and MCP server endpoints.

## Library exports

package.json exports map adds ./minions and ./engine-factory paths so plugins
can `import { MinionQueue } from 'gbrain/minions'` for direct library use.

## Instruction layer (the teaching)

- skills/minion-orchestrator/SKILL.md — when/how to use Minions, decision
  matrix, lifecycle management, anti-patterns
- skills/conventions/subagent-routing.md — cross-cutting rule: all background
  work goes through Minions
- RESOLVER.md — trigger entries for agent orchestration
- manifest.json — registered

## Schema migration v6

Additive: 3 token columns, paused status, minion_inbox table with unread index.
Full Postgres + PGLite support. No backfill needed.

## Tests

65 tests (was 43): pause/resume (5), inbox (6), tokens (4), replay (4),
concurrent worker context (3), plus all existing coverage.

## What's NOT in this commit

Deferred to follow-up PRs:
- LISTEN/NOTIFY subscribe (needs real Postgres E2E)
- Resource governor (depends on concurrent worker stress testing)
- Routing eval harness (needs API keys + benchmark data)
- OpenClaw plugin (separate @gbrain/openclaw-minions-plugin repo)

See docs/designs/MINIONS_AGENT_ORCHESTRATION.md for full CEO-approved design.

* feat(minions): migration v7 — agent_parity_layer schema

Adds columns on minion_jobs (depth, max_children, timeout_ms, timeout_at,
remove_on_complete, remove_on_fail, idempotency_key) plus the new
minion_attachments table. Three partial indexes for bounded scans:
idx_minion_jobs_timeout, idx_minion_jobs_parent_status, and
uniq_minion_jobs_idempotency. Check constraints enforce non-negative depth
and positive child cap / timeout.

Additive migration — existing installs pick it up via ensureSchema on next
use. No user action required.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(minions): extend types for v7 parity layer

Extends MinionJob with depth/max_children/timeout_ms/timeout_at/
remove_on_complete/remove_on_fail/idempotency_key. Extends MinionJobInput
with the same options plus max_spawn_depth override. Adds MinionQueueOpts
(maxSpawnDepth default 5, maxAttachmentBytes default 5 MiB). Adds
AttachmentInput/Attachment shapes and ChildDoneMessage in the InboxMessage
union. rowToMinionJob updated to pick up the new columns.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(minions): attachments validator

New module validateAttachment() gates every attachment write. Rejects empty
filenames, path traversal (.., /, \), null bytes, oversized content (5 MiB
default, per-queue override), invalid base64, and implausible content_type
headers. Returns normalized { filename, content_type, content (Buffer),
sha256, size } on success.

The DB also enforces UNIQUE (job_id, filename) as defense-in-depth for
concurrent addAttachment races — JS-only checks are not sufficient.

* feat(minions): queue v7 — depth, child cap, timeouts, cascade, idempotency, child_done

Wraps completeJob and failJob in engine.transaction() so parent hook
invocations (resolveParent, failParent, removeChildDependency) fold into
the same transaction as the child update. A process crash between child
and parent can't strand the parent in waiting-children anymore.

Adds v7 behaviors:
- Depth tracking. add() computes depth = parent.depth + 1 and rejects
  past maxSpawnDepth (default 5).
- Per-parent child cap. add() takes SELECT ... FOR UPDATE on the parent,
  counts non-terminal children, rejects when count >= max_children.
  NULL max_children = no cap.
- Per-job wall-clock timeout. claim() populates timeout_at when
  timeout_ms is set. New handleTimeouts() dead-letters expired rows with
  error_text='timeout exceeded'. Terminal — no retry.
- Cascade cancel. cancelJob() walks descendants via recursive CTE with
  depth-100 runaway cap. Returns the root row. Re-parented descendants
  (parent_job_id NULL) are naturally excluded.
- Idempotency. add() uses INSERT ... ON CONFLICT (idempotency_key) DO
  NOTHING RETURNING; falls back to SELECT when RETURNING is empty. Same
  key always yields the same job id.
- child_done inbox. completeJob inserts {type:'child_done', child_id,
  job_name, result} into the parent's inbox in the same transaction as
  the token rollup, guarded by EXISTS so terminal/deleted parents skip
  without FK violation. New readChildCompletions(parent_id, lock_token,
  since?) helper; token-fenced like readInbox.
- removeOnComplete / removeOnFail. Deletes the row after the parent hook
  fires, so parent policy sees consistent state.
- Attachment methods. addAttachment validates via validateAttachment
  then INSERTs; UNIQUE (job_id, filename) backs the JS dup check.
  listAttachments, getAttachment, deleteAttachment round out the API.

Fixes pre-existing inverted status bug: add() now puts children in
waiting/delayed (not waiting-children) and atomically flips the parent
to waiting-children in the same transaction. Tests no longer need
manual UPDATE workarounds.

Two correctness fixes:
- Sibling completion race. Under READ COMMITTED, two grandchildren
  completing concurrently each saw the other as still-active in the
  pre-commit snapshot and neither flipped the parent. Fixed by taking
  SELECT ... FOR UPDATE on the parent row at the start of completeJob
  and failJob transactions, serializing siblings on the parent lock.
- JSONB double-encode. postgres.js conn.unsafe(sql, params) auto-
  JSON-encodes parameters. Calling JSON.stringify(obj) first stored a
  JSON string literal (jsonb_typeof=string) and broke payload->>'key'
  queries silently. Removed JSON.stringify from three call sites
  (child_done inbox post, updateProgress, sendMessage). PGLite tolerated
  both forms so unit tests missed it — real-PG E2E caught it.

* feat(minions): worker — timeout safety net + handleTimeouts tick

Worker tick now calls handleStalled() first, then handleTimeouts() — stall
requeue wins over timeout dead-letter when both could fire in the same
cycle. handleTimeouts() guards on lock_until > now() so stalled jobs take
the retryable path.

launchJob schedules a per-job setTimeout(timeout_ms) that fires ctx.signal
as a best-effort handler interrupt. The timer is always cleared in .finally
so process exit isn't delayed by a dangling timer. Handlers that respect
AbortSignal stop cleanly; handlers that ignore it still get dead-lettered
by the DB-side handleTimeouts.

Removed post-completeJob and post-failJob parent-hook calls from the worker
— those are now inside the queue method transactions. Worker becomes
simpler and crash-safer.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(minions): 33 new unit tests for v7 parity layer

Covers depth cap, per-parent child cap, timeout dead-letter, cascade
cancel (including the re-parent edge case), removeOnComplete /
removeOnFail, idempotency (single + concurrent), child_done inbox
(posted in txn + survives child removeOnComplete + since cursor),
attachment validation (oversize, path traversal, null byte, duplicates,
base64), AbortSignal firing on pause mid-handler, catch-block skipping
failJob when aborted, worker in-flight bookkeeping, token-rollup guard
when parent already terminal, and setTimeout safety-net cleanup.

Existing tests updated to remove the inverted-status manual UPDATE
workarounds that the add() fix made obsolete.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* test(e2e): Minions v7 concurrency + OpenClaw resilience coverage

minions-concurrency.test.ts spins two MinionWorker instances against the
test Postgres, submits 20 jobs, and asserts zero double-claims (every job
runs exactly once). This is the only test that actually proves FOR UPDATE
SKIP LOCKED under real concurrency — PGLite runs on a single connection
and can't exercise the race.

minions-resilience.test.ts covers the six OpenClaw daily pains:
1. Spawn storm caps enforce under concurrent submit. 2. Agent stall →
handleStalled() requeues; handleTimeouts() skips (lock_until guard).
3. Forgotten dispatches recoverable via child_done inbox. 4. Cascade
cancel stops grandchildren mid-flight. 5. Deep tree fan-in
(parent → 3 children → 2 grandchildren each) completes with the full
inbox chain. 6. Parent crash/recovery resumes from persisted state.

helpers.ts extends ALL_TABLES with minion_attachments, minion_inbox, and
minion_jobs (FK dependents first) so E2E teardown doesn't leak rows
between runs.

* chore: release v0.11.0 — Minions v7 agent orchestration primitives

Bumps VERSION / package.json to 0.11.0. Adds CHANGELOG entry covering
depth tracking, max_children, per-job timeouts, cascade cancel,
idempotency keys, child_done inbox, removeOnComplete/Fail, attachments,
migration v7, plus the two correctness fixes (sibling completion race
and JSONB double-encode).

TODOS.md captures the four v7 follow-ups: per-queue rate limiting,
repeat/cron scheduler, worker event emitter, and waitForChildren
convenience helpers.

1066 unit + 105 E2E = 1171 tests passing.

* fix(minions): unify JSONB inserts, tighten nullish coalescing

Three non-blocker cleanups from post-ship review of v0.11.0:

- queue.ts add() and completeJob(): pre-stringifying with JSON.stringify
  while other sites pass raw objects with $n::jsonb casts. postgres.js
  double-encodes if you stringify first — works on PGLite (text→JSONB
  auto-cast), fails silently on real PG. Unify on raw object + explicit
  $n::jsonb cast.
- queue.ts readChildCompletions: since clause used sent_at > $2 relying
  on PG's implicit text→TIMESTAMPTZ coercion. Explicit $2::timestamptz
  is safer and clearer.
- types.ts rowToMinionJob: parent_job_id used || which coerces 0 to null.
  Harmless today (SERIAL IDs start at 1) but ?? is semantically correct.

All 110 unit tests pass.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(minions): updateProgress missed $1::jsonb cast in unification

Residual from c502b7e — updateProgress was the only remaining JSONB write
without the explicit ::jsonb cast. Not broken (implicit cast works) but
breaks the convention the prior commit unified everywhere else.

* doc: Minions v7 skill count + jobs subcommands (26 skills)

README: bump skill count 25 → 26, add minion-orchestrator row, add
`gbrain jobs` command family block so v0.11.0's headline feature is
actually discoverable from the top-level commands reference.

CLAUDE.md: unit test count 48 → 49 (minions.test.ts expanded), skill
count 25 → 26, add minion-orchestrator to Key files + skills categorization,
expand MinionQueue one-liner to cover v7 primitives (depth/child-cap,
timeouts, idempotency, child_done inbox, removeOnComplete/Fail).

* feat: Minions adoption UX — smoke test + migration + pain-triggered routing

Teach OpenClaw when to reach for Minions vs native subagents. Ship three
pieces so upgrading from v0.10.x actually lands for real users:

- `gbrain jobs smoke` — one-command health check that submits a `noop` job,
  runs a worker, verifies completion, and prints engine-aware guidance
  (PGLite installs get the "daemon needs Postgres, use --follow" note).
  Fails loud if schema's below v7 so the user knows to `gbrain init`.

- `skills/migrations/v0.11.0.md` — post-upgrade migration file the
  auto-update agent reads. Six steps: apply schema, run smoke, ask user
  via AskUserQuestion which mode they want (always / pain_triggered / off),
  write to `~/.gbrain/preferences.json`, sanity-check handlers, mark done.
  Completeness scores on each option so the recommendation is explicit.

- `skills/conventions/subagent-routing.md` rewritten — was a "MUST use
  Minions for ALL background work" mandate, now reads preferences.json
  on every routing decision and branches on three modes. Mode B
  (pain_triggered) is the default: keep subagents until gateway drops
  state, parallel > 3, runtime > 5min, or user expresses frustration.
  Then pitch the switch in-session with a specific script.

Rename pass: "Minions v7" → "Minions" in README (JOBS block), TODOS.md
(P1 section header + depends-on), CHANGELOG.md v0.11.0 entry. v7 stays
as the internal schema version in code/migration contexts. The product
name is just Minions.

* doc(readme): promote Minions — 6 OpenClaw pains + how each is fixed

The one-line mention in the skills table wasn't doing the work. Added a
dedicated section between "How It Works" and "Getting Data In" that leads
with the six multi-agent failures every OpenClaw user hits daily (spawn
storms, hung handlers, forgotten dispatches, unstructured debugging,
gateway crashes, runaway grandchildren) and maps each pain to the
specific Minions primitive that fixes it.

Includes the smoke test command, the adoption default (pain_triggered),
and a pointer to skills/minion-orchestrator for the full patterns.

* test(bench): add harness for Minions vs OpenClaw subagent dispatch

Shared harness (openclawDispatch + minionsHandler) using matching
claude-haiku-4-5 calls on both sides so the delta measures queue+
dispatch overhead on top of identical LLM work. Includes
statsFromResults (p50/p95/p99) and formatStats helpers. Uses
`openclaw agent --local` embedded mode; does not test gateway
multi-agent fan-out (documented in the harness header).

* test(bench): durability under SIGKILL — Minions vs OpenClaw --local

Headline bench for the claim: when the orchestrator dies mid-dispatch,
Minions rescues via PG state + stall detection; OpenClaw --local loses
in-flight work outright.

Minions side: seed 10 active+expired-lock rows (exact state a SIGKILLed
worker leaves) then run a rescue worker. Expect 10/10 completed.
OpenClaw side: spawn 10 `openclaw agent --local` in parallel, SIGKILL
each at 500ms, count pre-kill delivered output. Expect 0/10 — no
persistence layer, nothing to recover.

Budget: ~$0 (Minions handlers sleep 10ms; OC calls die at 500ms so
partial LLM billing is negligible).

* test(bench): per-dispatch throughput — Minions vs OpenClaw --local

20 serial dispatches each side, identical claude-haiku-4-5 call with the
same trivial prompt. p50/p95/p99 reported via statsFromResults. Serial
(not parallel) so the per-dispatch cost is measured honestly and LLM
token spend stays bounded (~$0.08 total).

Minions: one queue, one worker, one concurrency. Submit → poll to
completion before next submit. OpenClaw: N sequential
`openclaw agent --local` spawns.

* test(bench): fan-out — Minions 10-wide concurrency vs 10 parallel OC spawns

Parent dispatches 10 children, waits for all to return. Minions uses
worker concurrency=10 sharing one warm process; OpenClaw parallel
`openclaw agent --local` spawns, each boots its own runtime.

3 runs × 10 children per run. Reports ok count and wall time per run
plus summary. Honest caveat documented: does not test OC gateway
multi-agent fan-out — that needs a custom WS client and LLM-backed
parent agent. This measures what users script today.

Budget: ~$0.12 LLM spend.

* test(bench): memory — 10 in-flight subagents, single-proc vs 10-proc cost

Measures resident memory for keeping 10 subagents in flight. Minions:
one worker process, concurrency=10 with handlers that park on a
promise — sample RSS of the test process via process.memoryUsage().
OpenClaw: 10 parallel `openclaw agent --local` processes, sum their
RSS via `ps -o rss=`.

Handlers are cheap sleeps, no LLM — we want harness memory, not LLM
client state. Budget: $0.

* test(bench): fan-out — don't gate on OC success rate, report numbers

Initial run showed OC parallel `--local` at 10-wide hits 40% failure
rate (17/30 across 3 runs). That's the finding, not a test bug —
process startup stampede + LLM rate limits. Bench now prints error
samples and reports the numbers instead of gating.

Minions side still gates at 90% (30/30 observed in practice).

* doc(benchmarks): Minions vs OpenClaw --local subagent dispatch

Real numbers on four claims: durability, throughput, fan-out, memory.
Same claude-haiku-4-5 call on both sides so the delta is queue+dispatch+
process cost on top of identical LLM work.

Headline: Minions rescues 10/10 from a SIGKILLed worker in 458ms while
OpenClaw --local loses all 10; ~10× faster per dispatch (778ms p50 vs
8086ms p50); ~21× faster at 10-wide fan-out AND 100% reliable vs OC's
43% failure rate; 2 MB vs 814 MB to keep 10 subagents in flight.

Honest caveats section covers what this doesn't test (OC gateway
multi-agent, load tests, other models). Fully reproducible via
test/e2e/bench-vs-openclaw/.

* doc(readme): inject Minions vs OpenClaw bench numbers

Headline deltas now in the Minions section: 10/10 vs 0/10 on crash,
~10× faster per dispatch, ~21× faster fan-out at 10-wide with 0%
failure vs 43%, ~400× less memory. Links to the full bench doc.

Prose first said Minions "fixes all six pains." Now it shows the
numbers that prove it.

* bench: production Wintermute benchmark — Minions 753ms vs sub-agent timeout

Real deployment: 45K-page brain on Render+Supabase. Task: pull 99 tweets,
write brain page, commit, sync. Minions: 753ms, $0. Sub-agent: gateway
timeout (>10s, couldn't even spawn under production load).

Also: 19,240 tweets backfilled across 36 months in 15 min at $0.
Sub-agents would cost $1.08 and fail 40% of spawns.

* bench: tweet ingestion — Minions 719ms vs OpenClaw 12.5s (17×)

Production benchmark with runnable test code:
- test/e2e/bench-vs-openclaw/tweet-ingest.bench.ts (reusable)
- docs/benchmarks/2026-04-18-tweet-ingestion.md (publishable)

Task: pull 100 tweets from X API, write brain page, commit, sync.
Minions: 719ms mean, $0, 100% success.
OpenClaw: 12,480ms mean, $0.03/run, 60% success (gateway timeouts).
At scale: 36-month backfill, 19K tweets, 15 min, $0 vs est. $1.08.

* doc(benchmarks): Wintermute production data point for Minions vs OpenClaw

Adds a production-environment data point to the Minions README section:
one month of tweet ingest on Wintermute (Render + Supabase + 45K-page brain)
ran end-to-end in 753ms for \$0.00 via Minions, while the equivalent
sessions_spawn hit the 10s gateway timeout and produced nothing.

Full methodology + logs in docs/benchmarks/2026-04-18-minions-vs-openclaw-production.md.

* feat(core): preferences.ts + cli-util.ts — foundations for v0.11.1

Adds two foundational modules that apply-migrations (Lane A-4), the
v0.11.0 orchestrator (Lane C-1), and the stopgap script (Lane C-4) all
depend on.

- src/core/preferences.ts: atomic-write ~/.gbrain/preferences.json
  (mktemp + rename, 0o600, forward-compatible for unknown keys) with
  validateMinionMode, loadPreferences, savePreferences. Plus
  appendCompletedMigration + loadCompletedMigrations for the
  ~/.gbrain/migrations/completed.jsonl log (tolerates malformed lines).
  Uses process.env.HOME || homedir() so $HOME overrides work in CI and
  tests; Bun's os.homedir() caches the initial value and ignores later
  mutations.
- src/core/cli-util.ts: promptLine(prompt) helper, extracted from
  src/commands/init.ts:212-224. Shared so init, apply-migrations, and
  the v0.11.0 orchestrator's mode prompt don't each reinvent it.

test/preferences.test.ts: 21 unit tests covering load/save atomicity,
0o600 perms, forward-compat for unknown keys, minion_mode validation,
completed.jsonl JSONL append idempotence, auto-ts population, malformed-
line tolerance in loadCompletedMigrations.

* feat(init): add --migrate-only flag (schema-only, no saveConfig)

Context: v0.11.0 migration orchestrators need a safe way to re-apply the
schema against an existing brain without risking a config flip. Today
running bare `gbrain init` with no flags defaults to PGLite and calls
saveConfig, which would silently overwrite an existing Postgres
database_url — caught by Codex in the v0.11.1 plan review as a
show-stopper data-loss bug.

The new --migrate-only path:
  - loadConfig() reads the existing config (does NOT call saveConfig)
  - errors out with a clear "run gbrain init first" if no config exists
  - connects via the already-configured engine, calls engine.initSchema(),
    disconnects
  - --json emits structured success/error payloads

Everything downstream in the v0.11.1 migration chain (apply-migrations,
the stopgap bash script, the package.json postinstall hook) will invoke
this flag rather than bare gbrain init.

test/init-migrate-only.test.ts: 4 tests covering the no-config error
path, --json error payload shape, happy-path with a PGLite fixture
(verifies config.json content is byte-identical after the call — the
real invariant), and idempotent rerun.

* feat(migrations): TS registry replaces filesystem migration scan

Context: Codex flagged that bun build --compile produces a self-contained
binary, and the existing findMigrationsDir() in upgrade.ts:145 walks
skills/migrations/v*.md on disk — which fails on a compiled install
because the markdown files aren't bundled. The plan's fix is a TS
registry: migrations are code, imported directly, visible to both source
installs and compiled binaries.

- src/commands/migrations/types.ts: shared Migration, OrchestratorOpts,
  OrchestratorResult types.
- src/commands/migrations/index.ts: exports the migrations[] array,
  getMigration(version), and compareVersions() (semver comparator).
  The feature_pitch data that lived in the MD file frontmatter now
  lives here as a code constant on each Migration, so runPostUpgrade's
  post-upgrade pitch printer can consume it without a filesystem read.
- src/commands/migrations/v0_11_0.ts: stub orchestrator + pitch. The
  full phase implementation lands in Lane C-1; for now the stub throws
  a clear "not yet implemented" so apply-migrations --list (Lane A-4)
  can still enumerate the migration.

test/migrations-registry.test.ts: 9 tests covering ascending-semver
ordering, feature_pitch shape invariants, getMigration lookup, and
compareVersions edge cases (equal / newer / older / single-digit
across major bumps).

* feat(cli): gbrain apply-migrations — migration runner CLI

Reads ~/.gbrain/migrations/completed.jsonl, diffs against the TS migration
registry, runs pending orchestrators. Resumes status:"partial" entries
(the stopgap bash script writes these so v0.11.1 apply-migrations can
pick up where it left off). Idempotent: rerunning when up-to-date exits 0.

Flags:
  --list                    Show applied + partial + pending + future.
  --dry-run                 Print the plan; take no action.
  --yes / --non-interactive Skip prompts (used by runPostUpgrade + postinstall).
  --mode <a|p|o>            Preset minion_mode (bypasses the Phase C TTY prompt).
  --migration vX.Y.Z        Force-run one specific version.
  --host-dir <path>         Include $PWD in host-file walk (default is
                            $HOME/.claude + $HOME/.openclaw only).
  --no-autopilot-install    Skip Phase F.

Diff rule (Codex H9): apply when no status:"complete" entry exists AND
migration.version ≤ installed VERSION. Previously proposed rule was
"version > currentVersion", which would SKIP v0.11.0 when running v0.11.1;
regression test in apply-migrations.test.ts pins the correct semantics.

Registered in src/cli.ts CLI_ONLY Set; dispatched before connectEngine so
each phase owns its own engine/subprocess lifecycle (no double-connect
when the orchestrator shells out to init --migrate-only or jobs smoke).

test/apply-migrations.test.ts: 18 unit tests covering parseArgs for every
flag, indexCompleted/statusForVersion correctness (including stopgap-then-
complete transition), and buildPlan's four buckets (applied / partial /
pending / skippedFuture) with the Codex H9 regression pinned.

* feat(upgrade): runPostUpgrade tail-calls apply-migrations; postinstall hook

Closes the v0.11.0 mega-bug: migration skills never fired on upgrade.
`runPostUpgrade` now does two things:

  1. Cosmetic: prints feature_pitch headlines for migrations newer than
     the prior binary. Uses the TS registry (Codex K) instead of walking
     skills/migrations/*.md on disk — compiled binaries see the same list
     source installs do.
  2. Mechanical: invokes apply-migrations --yes --non-interactive in the
     same process so Phase F (autopilot install) doesn't hit a subprocess
     timeout wall. Catches + surfaces errors without failing the upgrade.

Also:
  - Drops the early-return on missing upgrade-state.json (Codex H8).
    runPostUpgrade now runs apply-migrations unconditionally; it's cheap
    when nothing is pending. This repairs every broken-v0.11.0 install on
    their next upgrade attempt.
  - Bumps the `gbrain post-upgrade` subprocess timeout in runUpgrade from
    30s → 300s (Codex H7). A v0.11.0→v0.11.1 migration that has to
    schema-init + smoke + prefs + host-rewrite + launchd-install exceeds
    30s trivially.
  - Removes now-dead findMigrationsDir + extractFeaturePitch helpers and
    their filesystem-reading imports (readdirSync, resolve).
  - src/cli.ts post-upgrade dispatch now awaits the async runPostUpgrade.

apply-migrations (Lane A-4):
  - First-install guard: loadConfig() check at the top. No brain
    configured = exit silently for --yes / --non-interactive (postinstall
    stays quiet on fresh `bun add gbrain`); explicit message on --list /
    --dry-run.

package.json:
  - New `postinstall` script: gbrain --version >/dev/null 2>&1 && gbrain
    apply-migrations --yes --non-interactive 2>/dev/null || true. The
    --version sanity check guards against a half-written binary (Codex
    review criticism). || true prevents `bun update gbrain` failure
    mid-upgrade.

Manual smoke verified: fresh $HOME with no config → apply-migrations
--yes silently exits 0; --dry-run prints the one-liner "No brain
configured... Nothing to migrate."

* refactor(commands): extract library-level Core functions that throw not exit

Codex architecture finding #5: reusing CLI entry-point functions as Minions
handler bodies is wrong. If a Minion invokes runExtract / runEmbed /
runBacklinks / runLint and the handler hits a process.exit(1), the ENTIRE
WORKER process dies — killing every other in-flight job. Handlers need
library-level APIs that throw, and the CLI stays a thin wrapper that
catches + exits.

Per-command shape:
  - runXxxCore(opts): throws on validation errors, returns structured
    result. Handler-safe.
  - runXxx(args): arg parser; calls Core; catches; process.exit(1) on
    thrown errors. CLI-safe.

Shipped:
  - runExtractCore({ mode, dir, dryRun?, jsonMode? }) → ExtractResult
  - runEmbedCore({ slug? | slugs? | all? | stale? }) → void
  - runBacklinksCore({ action, dir, dryRun? }) → BacklinksResult
  - runLintCore({ target, fix?, dryRun? }) → LintResult

sync.ts is already correct — performSync throws; runSync wraps. No change.

import.ts deferred to v0.12.0 (its one process.exit fires only on a
missing dir arg; handlers always pass a dir, so worker-kill risk is
zero in practice). Noted in the plan's Out-of-scope.

Smoke verified: all four Core functions throw on invalid mode / missing
dir / not-found target instead of exiting the process.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat(jobs): Tier 1 handlers + autopilot-cycle (the killer handler)

registerBuiltinHandlers now handlers every operation autopilot needs to
dispatch via Minions + the single autopilot-cycle handler the autopilot
loop actually submits each interval.

Existing handlers (sync, embed, lint) rewired to call library-level Core
functions directly instead of the CLI wrappers. CLI wrappers call
process.exit(1) on validation errors; if a worker claimed a badly-formed
job, the WORKER PROCESS would die — killing every in-flight job. Cores
throw, so one bad job fails one job.

New handlers:
  - extract  → runExtractCore (mode: links|timeline|all, dir)
  - backlinks → runBacklinksCore (action: check|fix, dir)
  - autopilot-cycle → THE killer handler. Runs sync → extract → embed →
    backlinks inline. Each step wrapped in try/catch; returns
    { partial: true, failed_steps: [...] } when any step fails. Does NOT
    throw on partial failure — that would trigger Minion retry, and an
    intermittent extract bug would block every future cycle. Replaces
    the 4-job parent-child DAG proposed in early plan drafts (Codex
    H3/H4: parent/child is NOT a depends_on primitive in Minions).

import.ts handler still uses the CLI wrapper (runImport) — import's one
process.exit fires only on a missing dir arg and the handler always
passes a dir; Core extraction deferred to v0.12.0 when Tier 2 refactors
happen.

registerBuiltinHandlers promoted from private to exported for testability.

test/handlers.test.ts: 4 tests. Asserts every expected handler name
registers. Asserts autopilot-cycle against a nonexistent repo returns
{ partial: true, failed_steps: ['sync', 'extract', 'backlinks'] } — does
NOT throw. Asserts autopilot-cycle against an empty (but real) git repo
returns a result with a steps map, never throws.

* feat(autopilot): Minions dispatch + worker spawn supervisor + async shutdown

Autopilot now dispatches each cycle as a single `autopilot-cycle` Minion
job (with idempotency_key on the cycle slot) instead of running steps
inline. A forked `gbrain jobs work` child drains the queue durably,
supervised by autopilot. The user runs ONE install step
(`gbrain autopilot --install`) and gets sync + extract + embed + backlinks
+ durable job processing, with no separate worker daemon to manage.

Mode selection:
  - minion_mode=always OR pain_triggered (default), engine=postgres →
    Minions dispatch. Spawn child, submit autopilot-cycle each interval.
  - minion_mode=off, OR engine=pglite, OR `--inline` flag → run steps
    inline in-process, same as pre-v0.11.1. PGLite has an exclusive file
    lock that blocks a second worker process, so the inline path is the
    only path that works there.

Worker supervision:
  - spawn(resolveGbrainCliPath(), ['jobs', 'work'], { stdio: 'inherit' }).
    stdio:'inherit' avoids pipe-buffer blocking (Codex architecture #2).
  - On worker exit: 10s backoff + restart. Crash counter caps at 5 →
    autopilot stops with a clear error.
  - resolveGbrainCliPath() prefers argv[1] (cli.ts / /gbrain), then
    process.execPath (compiled binary suffix check), then `which gbrain`
    (installed to $PATH). NEVER blindly uses process.execPath, which on
    source installs is the Bun runtime, not `gbrain` (Codex architecture
    #1).

Shutdown:
  - Async SIGTERM/SIGINT handler: sends SIGTERM to worker, awaits its
    exit for up to 35s (the worker's own drain is 30s; we add buffer for
    signal-delivery latency), then SIGKILL if still alive.
  - Drops the old `process.on('exit')` lock-cleanup handler — its
    callback runs synchronously and can't wait for the worker drain.
    Lock file cleanup moved inside the async shutdown.

Lock-file mtime refresh every cycle (Codex C) so a long-lived autopilot
doesn't get declared "stale" by the next cron-fired invocation after 10
minutes.

Inline fallback path calls the new Core fns (runExtractCore, runEmbedCore)
instead of the CLI wrappers. That way a bad arg from inside the loop
can't process.exit() the autopilot itself (matches Codex #5).

test/autopilot-resolve-cli.test.ts: 3 tests covering argv[1]-as-gbrain,
argv[1]-as-cli.ts, and graceful error when no path resolves.

* feat(autopilot): env-aware install + OpenClaw bootstrap injection

Expand installDaemon from 2 targets (macOS launchd, Linux crontab) to 4:

  - macos              → launchd plist (unchanged)
  - linux-systemd      → ~/.config/systemd/user/gbrain-autopilot.service
                         with Restart=on-failure, RestartSec=30, and an
                         is-system-running probe to confirm the user bus
                         actually works (Codex architecture #7 hardened —
                         the naive /run/systemd/system existence check was
                         a false-positive magnet)
  - ephemeral-container → detects RENDER / RAILWAY_ENVIRONMENT /
                          FLY_APP_NAME / /.dockerenv. Crontab is unreliable
                          here (wiped on deploy), so we write
                          ~/.gbrain/start-autopilot.sh and tell the user
                          to source it from their agent's bootstrap
  - linux-cron         → existing crontab path (unchanged)

detectInstallTarget() + --target flag for explicit override. Also:
  - --inject-bootstrap / --no-inject control OpenClaw ensure-services.sh
    auto-injection. Default is ON when OpenClaw is detected (OPENCLAW_HOME
    env var, openclaw.json in CWD or $HOME, or an ensure-services.sh
    found). Injection adds ONE line with a `# gbrain:autopilot v0.11.0`
    marker and writes .bak.<ISO-timestamp> before touching the file.
    Idempotent — the marker check prevents double injection.

uninstallDaemon mirrors all four targets. A user can now run
`gbrain autopilot --uninstall` after moving hosts (macOS laptop → Linux
server) and the uninstall will find + remove every artifact.

writeWrapperScript now uses resolveGbrainCliPath() instead of blindly
baking process.execPath into the wrapper script — on source installs
that path is the Bun runtime, not gbrain (Codex architecture #1 fix
propagated to the install path too).

test/autopilot-install.test.ts: 4 tests covering detectInstallTarget's
platform + env-var branches. Deeper E2E coverage (systemd unit file
contents, ephemeral start-script contents + exec bit, OpenClaw marker
injection + .bak) lives in Task 14's E2E fixture test.

* feat(migrations): v0.11.0 orchestrator — phases A through G, full implementation

Replaces the stub from commit de027ce. The orchestrator runs all seven
phases of the v0.11.0 Minions adoption migration idempotently, resumable
from any prior status:"partial" run (the stopgap bash script writes
those).

Phases:
  A. Schema  — `gbrain init --migrate-only` (NEVER bare `gbrain init`,
               which defaults to PGLite and clobbers existing configs —
               Codex H1 show-stopper).
  B. Smoke   — `gbrain jobs smoke`. Abort loudly on non-zero.
  C. Mode    — --mode flag wins. Preserved from prefs on resume. Non-TTY
               or --yes defaults pain_triggered with explicit print.
               Interactive: numbered 1/2/3 menu via shared promptLine.
  D. Prefs   — savePreferences({minion_mode, set_at, set_in_version}).
  E. Host    — AGENTS.md marker injection + cron manifest rewrites. For
               cron entries whose skill matches a gbrain builtin
               (sync/embed/lint/import/extract/backlinks/autopilot-cycle)
               rewrites kind:agentTurn → kind:shell with a
               gbrain jobs submit command. PGLite branch keeps --follow
               (inline execution, the only path that works without a
               worker daemon); Postgres branch drops --follow + adds
               --idempotency-key ${handler}:${slot} so long cron jobs
               don't stack up (same Codex fix as the autopilot-cycle
               dispatch). For non-builtin handlers (host-specific, like
               ea-inbox-sweep, frameio-scan, x-dm-triage) emits a
               structured TODO row to
               ~/.gbrain/migrations/pending-host-work.jsonl so the host
               agent can walk through plugin-contract work per
               skills/migrations/v0.11.0.md.
  F. Install — `gbrain autopilot --install --yes`. Best-effort (failure
               doesn't abort; user can run manually).
  G. Record  — append to completed.jsonl. status:"complete" unless
               pending_host_work > 0, in which case status:"partial" +
               apply_migrations_pending: true.

Safety guards (Codex code-quality tension #3: strict-skip, no rollback):
  - Scope: $HOME/.claude + $HOME/.openclaw only by default. --host-dir
    must be explicit to include $PWD or any other path.
  - Symlink escape: SKIP if the resolved target leaves the scoped root.
  - >1 MB files: SKIP with warning.
  - Permission denied: SKIP with warning; other files continue.
  - Malformed JSON manifest: SKIP with parse error logged; continue.
  - mtime re-check right before write: bail the file if changed between
    read + write; other files continue.
  - Every edit writes a .bak.<ISO-timestamp> sibling first (second-
    precision so two same-day runs don't collide).
  - Idempotency: `_gbrain_migrated_by: "v0.11.0"` JSON property marker
    on each rewritten cron entry (JSON can't have comments — Codex G);
    AGENTS.md marker `<!-- gbrain:subagent-routing v0.11.0 -->`.
  - TODO dedupe: JSONL appends deduped by (handler, manifest_path) so
    reruns don't grow the file.

Post-run summary: when pending_host_work > 0, prints a one-liner
pointing the user at the JSONL path + the v0.11.0 skill file. The skill
(Lane C-3 / C-4) is the host-agent instruction manual.

test/migrations-v0_11_0.test.ts: 18 tests covering:
  - AGENTS.md injection: happy path, .bak creation, idempotent rerun,
    --dry-run no-op, symlink-escape SKIP, >1MB SKIP.
  - Cron rewrite: builtin handlers rewrite to shell+gbrain jobs submit,
    non-builtins emit JSONL TODOs without touching the manifest, mixed
    manifests get both treatments in one pass, idempotent rerun, TODO
    dedupe, malformed JSON SKIP, no-entries-array SKIP, --dry-run no-op.
  - findAgentsMdFiles + findCronManifests: scoped walk to $HOME/.claude +
    $HOME/.openclaw, --host-dir opt-in for $PWD.
  - BUILTIN_HANDLERS frozen at the canonical 7 names.

* feat(skill): port skillify from Wintermute, pair with check-resolvable

Skillify is the "meta skill": turn any raw feature or script into a
properly-skilled, tested, resolvable, evaled unit of agent-visible
capability. Proven in production on Wintermute; paired with gbrain's
existing `check-resolvable` it becomes a user-controllable equivalent of
Hermes' auto-skill-creation — you decide when and what, the tooling
keeps the checklist honest.

Shipped:
  - skills/skillify/SKILL.md — ported from ~/git/wintermute/workspace/
    skills/skillify/SKILL.md. Genericized:
      * /data/.openclaw/workspace → \${PROJECT_ROOT} (runtime-detected).
      * services/voice-agent/__tests__/ → test/ (detected from repo).
      * Manual `grep skills/... AGENTS.md` replaced with a reference to
        `gbrain check-resolvable`, which does reachability + MECE + DRY
        + gap detection properly instead of grep-matching a path string.
  - scripts/skillify-check.ts — ported from
    ~/git/wintermute/workspace/scripts/skillify-check.mjs. Preserves the
    --recent flag and --json output shape. Detects project root via
    package.json walkup; detects test dir (test/ → __tests__/ → tests/
    → spec/). Runs the 10-item checklist per target and exits non-zero
    if any required item is missing.
  - test/skillify-check.test.ts — 4 CLI tests: happy-path against
    publish.ts (known-skilled), --json shape + schema, --recent smoke,
    bogus-target exit code.
  - skills/RESOLVER.md — adds the trigger row ("Skillify this", "is
    this a skill?", "make this proper") → skills/skillify/SKILL.md.
  - skills/manifest.json — adds the skillify entry so the conformance
    test passes.

Why the pair:
  * Hermes auto-creates skills in the background. Fine until you don't
    know what the agent shipped — checklists decay silently.
  * gbrain ships the same capability as two user-controlled tools:
    /skillify builds the checklist, gbrain check-resolvable validates
    reachability + MECE + DRY across the whole skill tree.
  * Human keeps judgment. Tooling keeps the checklist honest.

* docs(v0.11.1): cron-via-minions convention, plugin-handlers guide, minions-fix, skill updates

New reference docs:
  - skills/conventions/cron-via-minions.md — the rewrite convention for
    cron manifests. Shows the Postgres (fire-and-forget + idempotency-
    key) vs PGLite (--follow inline) branch; explains why builtin-only
    auto-rewrite is safe + how host-specific handlers get the plugin
    contract.
  - docs/guides/plugin-handlers.md — the plugin contract for host-
    specific Minion handlers. Code-level registration via import +
    worker.register(), not a data file (Codex D: handlers.json was an
    RCE surface). Concrete TypeScript skeleton + handler contract
    (ctx.data, ctx.signal, ctx.inbox) + full migration flow from TODO
    JSONL to a rewritten cron entry.
  - docs/guides/minions-fix.md — user-facing troubleshooting for
    half-migrated v0.11.0 installs. Paste-one-liner for the stopgap,
    gbrain apply-migrations path for v0.11.1+, verification commands,
    failure-mode recipes.

Rewrites + updates:
  - skills/migrations/v0.11.0.md — body restored as the host-agent
    instruction manual. Audience is the host agent reading
    ~/.gbrain/migrations/pending-host-work.jsonl after the CLI
    orchestrator has done the mechanical phases. Walks each TODO type
    through the 10-item skillify checklist (plugin contract, ship
    bootstrap, unit tests, integration tests, LLM evals, resolver
    trigger, trigger eval, E2E smoke, brain filing, check-resolvable).
    Reverses the earlier "delete the body" decision (1B) because the
    body serves a different audience now — host-agent, not CLI
    documentation.
  - skills/cron-scheduler/SKILL.md — Phase 4 ("Register with host
    scheduler") now references cron-via-minions + plugin-handlers.
  - skills/maintain/SKILL.md — new "Fix a half-migrated install"
    section with the apply-migrations recipe.
  - skills/setup/SKILL.md — new Phase C.5 "One-step autopilot +
    Minions install (v0.11.1+)" explaining the four install targets
    + the OpenClaw auto-injection default.
  - docs/GBRAIN_SKILLPACK.md — Operations section adds the three new
    guides + the subagent-routing and cron-routing SKILLPACK notes
    (v0.11.0+).

All 167 related tests (conformance + resolver + skillify-check + v0_11_0
orchestrator) stay green.

* feat(v0.11.1): stopgap script + CLAUDE.md directive + README + CHANGELOG + version bump

scripts/fix-v0.11.0.sh — the paste-command for broken-v0.11.0 installs.
Released on the v0.11.1 tag so:
  curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/garrytan/gbrain/v0.11.1/scripts/fix-v0.11.0.sh | bash
always works (master branch could be renamed). 8 steps: schema apply,
smoke, mode prompt (non-TTY defaults pain_triggered), atomic write of
preferences.json (0o600), append completed.jsonl with status:"partial"
and apply_migrations_pending:true so the v0.11.1 apply-migrations run
resumes correctly (does NOT poison the permanent migration path —
Codex H2 avoidance), AGENTS.md + cron/jobs.json detection with guidance
printed as text only (never auto-edits from a curl-piped script), and a
closing line telling the user to run `gbrain autopilot --install` as the
one-stop finisher.

CLAUDE.md — new "Migration is canonical, not advisory" section pinning
the design principle. Any host-repo change (AGENTS.md, cron manifests,
launchctl units) is GBrain's responsibility via the migration; the
exception is host-specific handler registration, which goes via the
code-level plugin contract in docs/guides/plugin-handlers.md.

README.md — new sections:
  - "v0.11.0 migration didn't fire on your upgrade?" with both repair
    paths (v0.11.1 binary and pre-v0.11.1 stopgap).
  - "Skillify + check-resolvable: user-controllable auto-skill-creation"
    explaining why the user-controlled pair beats Hermes-style auto
    generation. Includes the scripts/skillify-check.ts invocation.

CHANGELOG.md — v0.11.1 entry (per CLAUDE.md voice: lead with what the
user can now do that they couldn't before; frame as benefits, not files
changed). Covers: mega-bug fix + apply-migrations + postinstall +
stopgap, autopilot-supervises-worker + single-install-step + env-aware
targets, Core fn extraction so handlers don't kill workers, skillify +
check-resolvable pair, host-agnostic plugin contract replacing
handlers.json (RCE concern), gbrain init --migrate-only, TS migration
registry + H8/H9 diff-rule fixes, CLAUDE.md directive. All Codex hard
blockers (H1, H3/H4, H5, H6, H7, H8, H9, K) + architecture issues
(#1/#2/#4/#5/#7) resolved.

package.json — version bump 0.11.0 → 0.11.1.

* test(e2e): migration-flow E2E against live Postgres + Bun env quirk fix

Ships test/e2e/migration-flow.test.ts — the end-to-end integration test
for the v0.11.0 orchestrator. Spins up against a live Postgres (gated
on DATABASE_URL per CLAUDE.md lifecycle) and exercises four scenarios:

  - Fresh install: schema apply (Phase A via `gbrain init --migrate-only`)
    → smoke (Phase B) → mode resolution (C) → prefs (D) → host rewrite
    (E, empty fixture) → record (G). Asserts preferences.json exists with
    0o600, completed.jsonl has a v0.11.0 entry, autopilot install was
    skipped per --no-autopilot-install.
  - Idempotent rerun: second orchestrator invocation on a completed
    install doesn't blow up; mode stays stable.
  - Host rewrite mixed manifest: 4-entry cron/jobs.json with 2 gbrain-
    builtin handlers (sync, embed) + 2 non-builtin (ea-inbox-sweep,
    morning-briefing). Asserts builtins rewrite to `gbrain jobs submit`
    kind:shell, non-builtins are LEFT on kind:agentTurn, and 2 JSONL
    TODOs are emitted with correct shape. AGENTS.md gets the marker
    injected. Status is "partial" because pending-host-work > 0.
  - Resumable: stopgap writes a partial completed.jsonl row first;
    orchestrator re-runs successfully against it and appends a new
    post-orchestrator entry. 1 partial + 1 complete = 2 rows total.

Critical fix surfaced by the E2E: src/commands/migrations/v0_11_0.ts's
three execSync calls (gbrain init --migrate-only, gbrain jobs smoke,
gbrain autopilot --install) now explicitly pass `env: process.env`.
Bun's execSync default does NOT propagate post-start `process.env.PATH`
mutations to subprocesses — only the initial PATH snapshot. Without the
explicit env, any user-side env tweak (e.g. setting GBRAIN_DATABASE_URL
in a script before calling the orchestrator) would be invisible to the
orchestrator's subprocesses. This is also the reason the E2E needs a
PATH shim installed at module-load time to expose the `gbrain` command.

test/init-migrate-only.test.ts: subprocess env now strips DATABASE_URL
and GBRAIN_DATABASE_URL. The "no config" error-path tests need
loadConfig() to return null, which it won't if the env-var fallback at
src/core/config.ts:30 fires. Before this fix, running the unit tests
with DATABASE_URL set (e.g. during an E2E run) caused false failures
because `gbrain init --migrate-only` saw the env var and succeeded.

Full test totals with live Postgres: 1265 pass, 0 fail, 3497 expect
calls, 67 files, ~95s.

* chore: bump VERSION file to 0.11.1

Commit 5c4cf1d bumped package.json version to 0.11.1 but missed the
root VERSION file. src/version.ts reads from package.json so
`gbrain --version` prints 0.11.1 correctly, but any tool or script
that reads the VERSION file directly (like /ship's idempotency check)
saw the stale 0.11.0.

* feat(v0.11.1): doctor self-heal check + skillpack-check command for cron health reports

Closes the discoverability hole from the v0.11.0 mega-bug: once a user is
on v0.11.1 (or later), every `gbrain doctor` invocation immediately
surfaces a half-migrated state, and `gbrain skillpack-check` gives host
agents (Wintermute's morning-briefing, any OpenClaw cron) a single
exit-coded JSON pipe to check from their own skills.

gbrain doctor — two new checks:
  1. Filesystem-only (fires on every `doctor` invocation, even --fast):
     if `~/.gbrain/migrations/completed.jsonl` has any status:"partial"
     entry with no matching status:"complete" for the same version, print
     `MINIONS HALF-INSTALLED (partial migration: vX.Y.Z). Run: gbrain
     apply-migrations --yes`. Typical cause is the stopgap wrote a
     partial record but nobody ran `apply-migrations` afterward.
  2. DB-path: if schema version is v7+ (Minions present) AND
     `~/.gbrain/preferences.json` is missing, print the same banner.
     Catches installs that never ran the stopgap or apply-migrations at
     all — the classic v0.11.0 "upgrade landed, migration never fired"
     state.

Both checks status:"fail" so doctor exits non-zero when either fires.
Test `test/doctor-minions-check.test.ts` pins the five branches
(partial present → FAIL, partial+complete → quiet, no-jsonl → quiet,
multiple versions named correctly, human-readable banner contains the
exact "MINIONS HALF-INSTALLED" phrase Wintermute's cron can grep for).

gbrain skillpack-check — new command + skill:
  - `src/commands/skillpack-check.ts` wraps `doctor --fast --json` +
    `apply-migrations --list` into one JSON report with `{healthy,
    summary, actions[], doctor, migrations}`. Exit 0 on healthy, 1 on
    action-needed, 2 on determine-failure. `--quiet` flag for cron
    pipes that want exit-code-only behavior.
  - `actions[]` is the remediation list. Doctor messages of the form
    `... Run: <cmd>` get their command extracted (regex fixed to match
    the full remainder of the line, not just the first word). Pending
    or partial migrations push `gbrain apply-migrations --yes` to the
    front of actions[].
  - `gbrainSpawn()` helper resolves the gbrain invocation correctly on
    compiled binary installs (`argv[1] = /usr/local/bin/gbrain`) AND
    source installs (`argv[1] = src/cli.ts`, prefix with `bun run`).
    Same Codex #1 fix pattern as autopilot's resolveGbrainCliPath.
  - `skills/skillpack-check/SKILL.md` teaches agents when to run it,
    what to do with the output, and anti-patterns (don't run without
    --quiet in a cron that emails; don't ignore exit 2).
  - Registered in skills/RESOLVER.md and skills/manifest.json.

Test `test/skillpack-check.test.ts` (5 tests) covers healthy fresh
install, half-migrated exit-1 with apply-migrations in actions[],
--quiet suppresses stdout in both states, --help prints usage, summary
includes top action when multiple are present.

1192 unit tests pass (+15 new). The 38 failing tests are all
DATABASE_URL E2Es — same pre-existing pattern, unchanged by this
commit.

* doc(v0.11.1): reframe README + minions-fix — v0.11.0 was never released

v0.11.0 was cut but never released publicly. v0.11.1 is the first
public Minions ship, and fixes the upgrade-migration mega-bug so it
self-heals on every future `gbrain upgrade` + `bun update gbrain`.
The README was wrongly framing the fix as a retrospective for v0.11.0
users — none exist, so remove it.

README changes:
  - Delete the "v0.11.0 migration didn't fire on your upgrade?" section.
    Replace with "Health check and self-heal": the `gbrain doctor`,
    `gbrain skillpack-check --quiet`, and `gbrain skillpack-check | jq`
    recipes that ship in v0.11.1. Still links to docs/guides/minions-fix.md
    for deeper troubleshooting.
  - Promote the production benchmark to top billing. The previous section
    led with the lab benchmark (same LLM, localhost) and buried the
    production data point as a single follow-up sentence. Real deployment
    numbers are the stronger signal:
      * 753ms vs >10s gateway timeout (sub-agent couldn't even spawn)
      * $0.00 vs ~$0.03 per run
      * 100% vs 0% success rate under 19-cron production load
      * 36-month tweet backfill: 19,240 tweets, ~15 min, $0.00
    Lab numbers stay (separate table, labeled "controlled environment")
    so readers can see both layers.
  - Add the "The routing rule" closer: Deterministic → Minions, Judgment
    → Sub-agents. This is the clearest framing in the production
    benchmark doc and belongs in the README so readers leave with the
    right mental model. `minion_mode: pain_triggered` automates it.

docs/guides/minions-fix.md rewrite:
  - Reframe as: v0.11.0 never released, v0.11.1 is the first ship,
    `gbrain apply-migrations --yes` is canonical. Stopgap stays
    documented for pre-v0.11.1 branch builds (e.g. Wintermute's
    minions-jobs checkout before v0.11.1 tags).
  - Add the detection + verification commands (doctor + skillpack-check)
    at the top.
  - Cross-reference skills/skillpack-check/SKILL.md as the agent-facing
    health-check pattern.

Zero lingering "v0.11.0 released" references in README or minions-fix.

* fix(doctor): remove "schema v7+ no prefs → FAIL" check (too aggressive)

CI failure in Tier 1 Mechanical E2E:
  (fail) E2E: Doctor Command > gbrain doctor exits 0 on healthy DB

Root cause: the doctor half-migration detection added two checks. The
second check (`schema v7+ AND ~/.gbrain/preferences.json missing →
minions_config FAIL`) was too aggressive. It treated a valid fresh-
install state as broken.

`gbrain init` against Postgres applies schema v7 but doesn't write
preferences.json — that's the migration orchestrator's Phase D, which
only runs via `apply-migrations`. Between `init` finishing and the user
running `apply-migrations`, the install is legitimately in a
"schema-applied, no prefs" state. Doctor was exiting 1 on this valid
state, breaking the pre-existing CI test that init's + docters a
healthy DB.

Fix: drop the check. The filesystem check (step 3 — partial-completed
without a matching complete) is sufficient signal for genuine half-
migration. Added a regression test pinning the exact CI scenario: no
completed.jsonl present, no preferences.json, doctor must not fail any
minions_* check.

Also removes the now-unused `preferencesPaths` import.

Verified against live Postgres: CI-equivalent `gbrain doctor` + `gbrain
doctor --json` both pass. Full suite: 1281/1281 tests pass.

* doc(readme): Minions section — lead with the story, compress the rest

The previous section opened with "six daily pains" as a numbered list
before the hook, buried the production numbers halfway down, and had
a table explaining how each pain gets fixed. Fine for a spec doc;
wrong for a README that needs to land the impact fast.

Rewrite:
  - Lead with "your sub-agents won't drop work anymore" — the reason
    a reader is here.
  - Production numbers promoted, framed as a story: "Here's my
    personal OpenClaw deployment: one Render container, Supabase
    Postgres holding a 45,000-page brain, 19 cron jobs firing on
    schedule, the X Enterprise API on the wire..." Gives the reader
    the setup before the punchline.
  - The routing rule (deterministic → Minions, judgment → sub-agents)
    survives unchanged. It's the clearest framing in the whole section.
  - Lose the "how each pain gets fixed" table. Compress the six pains
    + their fixes into one paragraph that names the primitives by
    name (max_children, timeout_ms, child_done inbox, cascade cancel,
    idempotency keys, attachment validation). Readers who want depth
    click through to skills/minion-orchestrator/SKILL.md.
  - Close with "not incrementally better — categorically different"
    and the three headline numbers.
  - Drop the separate Lab Numbers table; the production numbers are
    stronger and the lab data is one click away via the link.

Lines: 75 → 42. Same signal, less scroll.

* doc: scrub X Enterprise API + @garrytan references from user-facing docs

User feedback: shouldn't name the specific enterprise-tier API product
or the account in the README or benchmark docs. Genericize:

  - "X Enterprise API on the wire" → drop entirely; the 19-cron load
    story carries the setup without naming the vendor
  - "X Enterprise API ($50K/mo firehose)" → "external API"
  - "@garrytan tweets" → "my social posts"
  - "Pull ~100 @garrytan tweets" → "Pull ~100 of my social posts"
  - "X Enterprise API (full-archive)" env var comment → "external API
    bearer token"

Scope:
  - README.md — the Minions production story line + scaling callout
  - docs/benchmarks/2026-04-18-minions-vs-openclaw-production.md
  - docs/benchmarks/2026-04-18-tweet-ingestion.md

Plain "X API" references in the tweet-ingestion methodology stay —
those describe which public HTTP endpoint was called, not the
enterprise-tier product. Benchmark doc filenames (tweet-ingestion.md)
stay to preserve inbound links; content is genericized.

* doc(readme): Skillify section — match Minions energy, land the category shift

The previous section was competent but undersold what skillify actually
is. Rewrite matches the Minions section's shape: lead with the hook,
tell the story, land the punchline.

Key changes:
  - Title: "your skills tree stops being a black box." Names the thing
    skillify actually solves.
  - Open with the problem: Hermes auto-creates skills as a background
    behavior. Six months later you have an opaque pile nobody's read
    or tested. Make the liability concrete.
  - Promote the 10 items by name (SKILL.md + script + unit tests +
    integration tests + LLM evals + resolver trigger + trigger eval +
    E2E + brain filing + check-resolvable audit). Showing the list
    makes the scope of the unlock visible.
  - New subsection "Why this is the right answer for OpenClaw" names
    the debugging-the-black-box pain directly. Skillify makes the tree
    legible: when something breaks, you know which layer (contract,
    test, eval, trigger, or route) to inspect. When anything goes
    stale, check-resolvable flags it.
  - Close with "compounding quality instead of compounding entropy" +
    "not a nice-to-have. It's the piece that makes the skills tree
    survive six months."
  - Expand the code block to include `gbrain check-resolvable` (the
    other half of the pair) so readers see the whole workflow.

Length goes from 17 to 34 lines — still shorter than Minions, still
one section. Worth the space because this is a category shift for
how agent skills get built, not a feature.

91ced664b6 feat: Voice v0.8.0 + feature discovery + Edge Function removal (#55)
* chore: remove Supabase Edge Function MCP deployment

The Edge Function never worked reliably. All MCP traffic goes through
self-hosted server + ngrok tunnel. Removes deploy-remote.sh, edge-entry.ts,
supabase/functions/, .env.production.example, and CHATGPT.md (OAuth not
implemented).

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: rewrite MCP docs for self-hosted + ngrok deployment

All per-client guides updated from Edge Function URLs to self-hosted
server + ngrok tunnel pattern. DEPLOY.md rewritten with local vs remote
paths. ALTERNATIVES.md now shows self-hosted as primary, with ngrok,
Tailscale, and Fly.io/Railway comparison.

* feat: voice recipe v0.8.0 — 25 production patterns from real deployment

Identity separation, pre-computed bid system, conversation timing fix,
proactive advisor mode, radical prompt compression, OpenAI Realtime
Prompting Guide structure, auth-before-speech, brain escalation, stuck
watchdog, never-hang-up rule, thinking sounds, fallback TwiML, tool set
architecture, trusted user auth, caller routing, dynamic VAD, on-screen
debug UI, live moment capture, belt-and-suspenders post-call, mandatory
3-step post-call, WebRTC parity, dual API events, report-aware query
routing. WebRTC pseudocode updated with native FormData and 6 gotchas.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* feat: post-upgrade feature discovery framework

upgrade.ts captures old version before upgrading, then execs
gbrain post-upgrade (new binary) to read migration files and print
feature pitches. Migration files get YAML frontmatter with feature_pitch
field (headline, description, recipe, tiers). CLI prints excited builder
tone post-upgrade. v0.8.0 migration offers voice setup with environment
detection (server vs local) and 3-tier progressive disclosure.

* feat: add Voice section to README with WebRTC screenshot + tweet link

Her out of the box: voice-to-brain with 25 production patterns. WebRTC
client screenshot embedded. Remote MCP section rewritten for self-hosted
+ ngrok. Setup block genericized.

* fix: embed schema.sql at build time, remove fs dependency from initSchema

initSchema() previously read schema.sql from disk at runtime via readFileSync,
which broke in compiled Bun binaries and Deno Edge Functions. Now uses a
generated schema-embedded.ts constant (run `bun run build:schema` to regenerate).

- Removes fs and path imports from postgres-engine.ts and db.ts
- Adds scripts/build-schema.sh for one-source-of-truth generation
- Adds build:schema npm script

Fixes Issue #22 Bug #6.

* fix: 5 more bug fixes from Issue #22

- fix(file_upload): call storage.upload() in all 3 paths (operation, CLI upload, CLI sync) with rollback semantics (#22 Bug #9)
- fix(import): use atomic index counter for parallel queue instead of array.shift() race, preserve checkpoint on errors (#22 Bug #3)
- fix(s3): replace unsigned fetch with @aws-sdk/client-s3 for proper SigV4 auth, supports R2/MinIO via forcePathStyle (#22 Bug #10)
- fix(redirect): verify remote file exists before deleting local copy, skip files not found in storage (#22 Bug #5)
- deps: add @aws-sdk/client-s3

* feat: remote MCP server via Supabase Edge Functions

Deploy GBrain as a serverless remote MCP endpoint on your existing Supabase
instance. One brain, accessible from Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cowork,
Perplexity Computer, and any MCP client. Zero new infrastructure.

New files:
- supabase/functions/gbrain-mcp/index.ts — Edge Function with Hono + MCP SDK
- supabase/functions/gbrain-mcp/deno.json — Deno import map
- src/edge-entry.ts — curated bundle entry point (excludes fs-dependent modules)
- src/commands/auth.ts — standalone token management (create/list/revoke/test)
- scripts/deploy-remote.sh — one-script deployment
- .env.production.example — 3-value config template

Changes:
- config.ts: lazy-evaluate CONFIG_DIR (no homedir() at module scope)
- schema.sql: add access_tokens + mcp_request_log tables
- package.json: add build:edge script

Auth: bearer tokens via access_tokens table (SHA-256 hashed, per-client, revocable)
Transport: WebStandardStreamableHTTPServerTransport (stateless, Streamable HTTP)
Health: /health endpoint (unauth: 200/503, auth: postgres/pgvector/openai checks)
Excluded from remote: sync_brain, file_upload (may exceed 60s timeout)

Setup: clone, fill .env.production, run scripts/deploy-remote.sh, create token, done.

* fix: batch upsertChunks into single statement to prevent deadlocks

The per-chunk UPSERT loop caused deadlocks under parallel workers because
each INSERT ON CONFLICT acquired row-level locks sequentially. Multiple
workers upserting different pages could deadlock on the shared unique index.

Fix: batch all chunks into a single multi-row INSERT ON CONFLICT statement.
One round-trip, one lock acquisition. COALESCE preserves existing embeddings
when the new value is NULL.

Fixes CI failure: "E2E: Parallel Import > parallel import with --workers 4"

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: advisory lock in initSchema() prevents deadlock on concurrent DDL

When multiple processes call initSchema() concurrently (e.g., test setup +
CLI subprocess, or parallel workers during E2E tests), the schema SQL's
DROP TRIGGER + CREATE TRIGGER statements acquire AccessExclusiveLock on
different tables, causing deadlocks.

Fix: pg_advisory_lock(42) serializes all initSchema() calls within the
same database. The lock is session-scoped and released in a finally block.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix: add explicit test timeouts for CLI subprocess E2E tests

CLI subprocess tests (Setup Journey, Doctor Command, Parallel Import)
spawn `bun run src/cli.ts` which takes several seconds to JIT compile +
connect. The Bun test framework default 5000ms per-test timeout is too
tight for CI. Added 30-60s timeouts matching each subprocess's own
timeout to prevent false failures.

* fix: infinite recursion in config.ts exported getConfigDir/getConfigPath

The replace_all refactor created recursive functions: the exported
getConfigDir() called the private getConfigDir() which called itself.
Renamed exports to configDir()/configPath() to avoid shadowing.
