gbrain/src/core/eval-capture.ts

/**
 * Op-layer capture wrapper (v0.21.0).
 *
 * Catches MCP + CLI + subagent tool-bridge traffic from a single site —
 * the `query` and `search` op handlers in src/core/operations.ts decorate
 * themselves with `captureEvalCandidate` before they run. Post-codex O1+O2
 * design: the MCP server used to be the capture site, but subagent tool
 * calls dispatch straight to op.handler via brain-allowlist.ts and would
 * have been invisible. Moving the hook to the op layer covers every caller.
 *
 * Best-effort, not await'd by the caller. Every failure is routed through
 * `engine.logEvalCaptureFailure(reason)` so `gbrain doctor` can see drops
 * cross-process (in-process counters would be invisible from doctor's
 * separate process).
 *
 * Data-flow (happy path):
 *
 *   op.handler() ──▶ {results, meta}
 *                         │
 *                 (fire-and-forget from caller)
 *                         ▼
 *               outer try / inner .catch
 *                         │
 *                         ▼
 *                  scrubPii(query)
 *                         │
 *                         ▼
 *             buildEvalCandidateInput(...)
 *                         │
 *                         ▼
 *               engine.logEvalCandidate(input)
 *
 * Every error path — scrub throw, build throw, INSERT reject — lands at
 * `logEvalCaptureFailure(reason)` with the right reason tag.
