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.
