* feat(v2.0.9): Autopilot — backend event-subscriber routes 6 live events into cognitive hooks
The single architectural change that flips 14 dormant cognitive primitives
into active ones. Before this commit, Vestige's 20-event WebSocket bus had
zero backend subscribers — every emitted event flowed to the dashboard
animation layer and terminated. Cognitive modules with fully-built trigger
methods (synaptic_tagging.trigger_prp, predictive_memory.record_*,
activation_network.activate, prospective_memory.check_triggers, the 6h
auto-consolidation dreamer path) were never actually called from the bus.
New module `crates/vestige-mcp/src/autopilot.rs` spawns two tokio tasks at
startup:
1. Event subscriber — consumes the broadcast::Receiver, routes:
- MemoryCreated → synaptic_tagging.trigger_prp(CrossReference)
+ predictive_memory.record_memory_access(id, preview, tags)
- SearchPerformed → predictive_memory.record_query(q, [])
+ record_memory_access on top 10 result_ids
- MemoryPromoted → activation_network.activate(id, 0.3) spread
- MemorySuppressed → emit Rac1CascadeSwept (was declared-never-emitted)
- ImportanceScored (composite > 0.85 AND memory_id present)
→ storage.promote_memory + re-emit MemoryPromoted
- Heartbeat (memory_count > 700, 6h cooldown)
→ spawned find_duplicates sweep (rate-limited)
The loop holds the CognitiveEngine mutex only per-handler, never across
an await, so MCP tool dispatch is never starved.
2. Prospective poller — 60s tokio::interval calls
prospective_memory.check_triggers(Context { timestamp: now, .. }).
Matched intentions are logged at info! level today; v2.5 "Autonomic"
upgrades this to MCP sampling/createMessage for agent-side notifications.
ImportanceScored event gained optional `memory_id: Option<String>` field
(#[serde(default)], backward-compatible) so auto-promote has the id to
target. Both existing emit sites (server.rs tool dispatch, dashboard
handlers::score_importance) pass None because they score arbitrary content,
not stored memories — matches current semantics.
docs/VESTIGE_STATE_AND_PLAN.md §15 POST-v2.0.8 ADDENDUM records the full
three-agent audit that produced this architecture (2026-SOTA research,
active-vs-passive module audit, competitor landscape), the v2.0.9/v2.5/v2.6
ship order, and the one-line thesis: "the bottleneck was one missing
event-subscriber task; wiring it flips Vestige from memory library to
cognitive agent that acts on the host LLM."
Verified:
- cargo check --workspace clean
- cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings clean (let-chain on Rust 1.91+)
- cargo test -p vestige-mcp --lib 356/356 passing, 0 failed
* fix(autopilot): supervisor + dedup race + opt-out env var
Three blockers from the 5-agent v2.0.9 audit, all in autopilot.rs.
1. Supervisor loops around both tokio tasks (event subscriber + prospective
poller). Previously, if a cognitive hook panicked on a single bad memory,
the spawned task died permanently and silently — every future event lost.
Now the outer supervisor catches JoinError::is_panic(), logs the panic
with full error detail, sleeps 5s, and respawns the inner task. Turns
a permanent silent failure into a transient hiccup.
2. DedupSweepState struct replaces the bare Option<Instant> timestamp. It
tracks the in-flight JoinHandle so the next Heartbeat skips spawning a
second sweep while the first is still running. Previously, the cooldown
timestamp was set BEFORE spawning the async sweep, which allowed two
concurrent find_duplicates scans on 100k+ memory DBs where the sweep
could exceed the 6h cooldown window. is_running() drops finished handles
so a long-dead sweep doesn't block the next legitimate tick.
3. VESTIGE_AUTOPILOT_ENABLED=0 opt-out. v2.0.8 users updating in place
can preserve the passive-library contract by setting the env var to
any of {0, false, no, off}. Any other value (unset, 1, true, etc.)
enables the default v2.0.9 Autopilot behavior. spawn() early-returns
with an info! log before any task is spawned.
Audit breakdown:
- Agent 1 (internals): NO-GO → fixed (1, 2)

* chore(release): v2.0.9 "Autopilot"
Bump workspace + vestige-core + vestige-mcp + apps/dashboard to 2.0.9.
CHANGELOG [2.0.9] entry + README hero banner rewrite to "Autopilot".
Scope (two commits on top of v2.0.8):
- 0e9b260: 3,091 LOC orphan-code cleanup
- fe7a68c: Autopilot backend event-subscriber
- HEAD (this branch): supervisor + dedup race + opt-out env var hardening
Pure backend release — tool count unchanged (24), schema unchanged,
JSON-RPC shape unchanged, CLI flags unchanged. Only visible behavior
change is the Autopilot task running in the background, which is
VESTIGE_AUTOPILOT_ENABLED=0-gated.
Test gate: 1,223 passing / 0 failed (workspace, no-fail-fast).
Clippy: clean on vestige-mcp lib + bins with -D warnings.
Audit: 5 parallel agents (internals, backward compat, orphan cleanup,
runtime safety, release prep) — all GO after hardening commit.

Nine tool modules in crates/vestige-mcp/src/tools/ had zero callers after
the v2.0.x unification work shipped *_unified + maintenance::* replacements.
They'd been #[allow(dead_code)]-papered over and forgotten. Verified each
module independently: grep for tools::<name>::, string dispatch in server.rs,
cross-crate usage — all nine returned zero external callers.
Removed modules (all superseded):
checkpoint (364 LOC) — no callers anywhere
codebase (298) — superseded by codebase_unified
consolidate (36) — superseded by maintenance::execute_consolidate
ingest (456) — superseded by smart_ingest
intentions (1,093) — superseded by intention_unified
knowledge (106) — no callers anywhere
recall (403) — superseded by search_unified
search (184) — superseded by search_unified
stats (132) — superseded by maintenance::execute_system_status
Also removed:
- EmotionCategory::base_arousal (10 LOC, zero callers)
Kept (still string-dispatched from server.rs):
- context, feedback, memory_states, review, tagging
Doc fixes (ghost env vars that were documented but zero Rust source reads):
- docs/CONFIGURATION.md — dropped VESTIGE_DATA_DIR, VESTIGE_LOG_LEVEL rows
(neither is read anywhere; --data-dir CLI flag + RUST_LOG are the real
mechanisms). Added the full real env-var table.
- packages/vestige-mcp-npm/README.md — same two ghost rows dropped
- docs/VESTIGE_STATE_AND_PLAN.md:399 — dropped VESTIGE_DATA_DIR row
- docs/VESTIGE_STATE_AND_PLAN.md:709 — typo VESTIGE_API_KEY
-> VESTIGE_AUTH_TOKEN (matches shipping convention), "open if unset"
-> "auto-generated if unset" to match actual behavior
Verified post-cleanup:
- cargo check --workspace clean
- cargo clippy --workspace -D warnings clean
- cargo test --workspace 1,223 passing / 0 failed
- cargo build --release -p vestige-mcp clean
Net: -3,091 LOC (14 files), zero behavior change, zero regressions.
* docs: anti-hedging banner + master state-and-plan + UI roadmap
Project-level CLAUDE.md line 1 is now the anti-hedging banner referencing
the global rule at /Users/entity002/CLAUDE.md. When Sam commits to an
execution path (content cadence, shipping velocity, outreach, launch),
forecasts compute as if the commitment is already met — no discounting by
execution probability.
VESTIGE_STATE_AND_PLAN.md (1135 lines, 14 parts): single-page reference
any AI agent can read to plan the next phase without re-reading the repo.
Covers current state of every crate, the 24 MCP tools, the 19 WebSocket
event types, the 8 IDE integrations, and v2.1 through v3.0 roadmap.
UI_ROADMAP_v2.1_v2.2.md: compiled UI-gap analysis from 4 parallel research
agents (April 19). 10 critical UI gaps + 2026 bleeding-edge patterns +
unclaimed territory (menu bar widget, voice-first, AR/VR, time-scrubber).
* feat(v2.2-pulse): InsightToast + multi-process STORAGE docs
Two independent ship items landing together on the v2.2 branch ahead of
the Tuesday launch — a new UI surface that makes Vestige's cognitive
events visible in real time, and honest documentation of the multi-process
safety story that underpins the Stigmergic Swarm narrative.
**InsightToast** (apps/dashboard/src/lib/components/InsightToast.svelte,
apps/dashboard/src/lib/stores/toast.ts):
The dashboard already had a working WebSocket event stream on
ws://localhost:3927/ws that broadcast every cognitive event (dream
completions, consolidation sweeps, memory promotions/demotions, active-
forgetting suppression and Rac1 cascades, bridge discoveries). None of
that was surfaced to a user looking at anything other than the raw feed
view. InsightToast subscribes to the existing eventFeed derived store,
filters the spammy lifecycle events (Heartbeat, SearchPerformed,
RetentionDecayed, ActivationSpread, ImportanceScored, MemoryCreated),
and translates the narrative events into ephemeral toasts with a
bioluminescent colored accent matching EVENT_TYPE_COLORS.
Design notes:
- Rate-limited ConnectionDiscovered at 1.5s intervals (dreams emit many).
- Max 4 visible toasts, auto-dismiss at 4.5-7s depending on event weight.
- Click or Enter/Space to dismiss early.
- Bottom-right on desktop, top-banner on mobile.
- Reduced-motion honored via prefers-reduced-motion.
- Zero new websocket subscriptions — everything piggybacks on the
existing derived store.
Also added a "Preview Pulse" button to Settings -> Cognitive Operations
that fires a synthetic sequence of four toasts (DreamCompleted,
ConnectionDiscovered, MemorySuppressed, ConsolidationCompleted) so
the animation is demoable without waiting for real cognitive activity.
**Multi-Process Safety section in docs/STORAGE.md**:
Grounds the Stigmergic Swarm story with concrete tables of what the
current WAL + 5s busy_timeout configuration actually supports vs what
remains experimental. Key honest points:
- Shared --data-dir + ONE vestige-mcp + N clients is the shipping
pattern for multi-agent coordination.
- Two vestige-mcp processes writing the same file is experimental —
documented with the lsof + pkill recovery path.
- Roadmap lists the three items that would promote it to "supported":
advisory file lock, retry-with-jitter on SQLITE_BUSY, and a
concurrent-writer load test.

* feat(v2.3-terrarium): Memory Birth Ritual + event pipeline fix
v2.3 "Terrarium" headline feature. When a MemoryCreated event arrives, a
glowing orb materialises in the cosmic center (camera-relative z=-40),
gestates for ~800ms growing from a tiny spark into a full orb, then arcs
along a dynamic quadratic Bezier curve to the live position of the real
node, and on arrival hands off to the existing RainbowBurst + Shockwave +
RippleWave cascade. The target position is re-resolved every frame so
the force simulation can move the destination during flight without the
orb losing its mark.
**New primitive — EffectManager.createBirthOrb()** (effects.ts):
Accepts a camera, a color, a live target-position getter, and an
arrival callback. Owns a sprite pair (outer halo + inner bright core),
both depthTest:false with renderOrder 999/1000 so the orb is always
visible through the starfield and the graph.
- Gestation phase: easeOutCubic growth + sinusoidal pulse, halo tints
from neutral to event color as the ritual charges.
- Flight phase: QuadraticBezierCurve3 with control point at midpoint
raised on Y by 30 + 15% of orb-to-target distance (shooting-star
arc). Sampled with easeInOutQuad. Orb shrinks ~35% approaching target.
- Arrival: fires onArrive callback once, then fades out over 8 frames
while expanding slightly (energy dispersal).
- Caller's onArrive triggers the burst cascade at arrivePos (NOT the
original spawnPos — the force sim may have moved the target during
the ritual, so we re-read nodeManager.positions on arrival).
- Dispose path integrated with existing EffectManager.dispose().
**Event pipeline fix — Graph3D.processEvents()**:
Previously tracked `processedEventCount` assuming APPEND order, but
websocket.ts PREPENDS new events (index 0) and caps the array at
MAX_EVENTS. Result: only the first MemoryCreated event after page
load fired correctly; subsequent ones reprocessed the oldest entry.
Fixed to walk from index 0 until hitting the last-processed event
by reference identity — correct regardless of array direction or
eviction pressure. Events are then processed oldest-first so causes
precede effects. Found while wiring the v2.3 demo button; would have
manifested as "first orb only" in production.
**Demo trigger** (Settings -> Birth Ritual Preview):
Button that calls websocket.injectEvent() with a synthetic
MemoryCreated event, cycling through node types (fact / concept /
pattern / decision / person / place) to showcase the type-color
mapping. Downstream consumers can't distinguish synthetic from real,
so this drives the full ritual end-to-end. Intended for demo clip
recording for the Wednesday launch.
**Test coverage:**
- events.test.ts now tests the v2.3 birth ritual path: spawns 2+
sprites in the scene immediately, and fires the full arrival
cascade after driving the effects.update() loop past the ritual
duration.
- three-mock.ts extended with Vector3.addVectors, Vector3.applyQuaternion,
Color.multiplyScalar, Quaternion, QuadraticBezierCurve3, Texture,
and Object3D.quaternion/renderOrder so production code runs unaltered
in tests.
Build + typecheck:
- npm run check: 0 errors, 0 warnings across 583 files
- npm test: 251/251 pass (net +0 from v2.2)
- npm run build: clean adapter-static output
The Sanhedrin Shatter (anti-birth ritual for hallucination veto) needs
server-side event plumbing and is deferred. Ship this as the Wednesday
visual mic-drop.
* fix(v2.3): 5 FATAL bugs + 4 god-tier upgrades from post-ship audit
Post-ship audit surfaced 6 FATALs and 4 upgrades. Shipping 5 of the 6 +
all 4 upgrades. FATAL 4 (VRAM hemorrhage from un-pooled label canvases
in createTextSprite) is pre-existing, not from this session, and scoped
separately for a proper texture-pool refactor.
**FATAL 1 — Toast Silent Lobotomy** (stores/toast.ts)
Subscriber tracked events[0] only. When Svelte batched multiple events
in one update tick (swarm firing DreamCompleted + ConnectionDiscovered
within the same millisecond), every event but the newest got silently
dropped. Fixed to walk from index 0 until hitting lastSeen — same
pattern as Graph3D.processEvents. Processes oldest-first to preserve
narrative order.
**FATAL 2 — Premature Birth** (graph/nodes.ts + graph/events.ts)
Orb flight is 138 frames; materialization was 30 frames. Node popped
fully grown ~100 frames before orb arrived — cheap UI glitch instead
of a biological birth. Added `addNode(..., { isBirthRitual: true })`
option that reserves the physics slot but hides mesh/glow/label and
skips the materializing queue. New `igniteNode(id)` flips visibility
and enqueues materialization. events.ts onArrive now calls igniteNode
at the exact docking moment, so the elastic spring-up peaks on impact.
**FATAL 3 — 120Hz ProMotion Time-Bomb** (components/Graph3D.svelte)
All physics + effect counters are frame-based. On a 120Hz display every
ritual ran at 2x speed. Added a `lastTime`-based governor in animate()
that early-returns if dt < 16ms, clamping effective rate to ~60fps.
`- (dt % 16)` carry avoids long-term drift. Zero API changes; tonight's
fast fix until physics is rewritten to use dt.
**FATAL 5 — Bezier GC Panic** (graph/effects.ts birth-orb update)
Flight phase allocated a new Vector3 (control point) and a new
QuadraticBezierCurve3 every frame per orb. With 3 orbs in flight that's
360 objects/sec for the GC to collect. Rewrote as inline algebraic
evaluation — zero allocations per frame, identical curve.
**FATAL 6 — Phantom Shockwave** (graph/events.ts)
A 166ms setTimeout fired the 2nd shockwave. If the user navigated
away during that window the scene was disposed, the timer still
fired, and .add() on a dead scene threw unhandled rejection. Dropped
the setTimeout entirely; both shockwaves fire immediately in onArrive
with different scales/colors for the same layered-crash feel.
**UPGRADE 1 — Sanhedrin Shatter** (graph/effects.ts birth-orb update)
If getTargetPos() returns undefined AFTER gestation (target node was
deleted mid-ritual — Stop hook sniping a hallucination), the orb
turns blood-red, triggers a violent implosion in place, and skips
the arrival cascade. Cognitive immune system made visible.
**UPGRADE 2 — Newton's Cradle** (graph/events.ts onArrive)
On docking the target mesh's scale gets bumped 1.8×, so the elastic
materialization + force-sim springs physically recoil instead of the
orb landing silently. The graph flinches when an idea is born into it.
**UPGRADE 3 — Hover Panic** (stores/toast.ts + InsightToast.svelte)
Paused dwell timer on mouseenter/focus, resume on mouseleave/blur.
Stored remaining ms at pause so resume schedules a correctly-sized
timer. CSS pairs via `animation-play-state: paused` on the progress
bar. A toast the user is reading no longer dismisses mid-sentence.
**UPGRADE 4 — Event Horizon Guard** (components/Graph3D.svelte)
If >MAX_EVENTS (200) events arrive in one tick, lastProcessedEvent
falls off the end of the array and the walk consumes ALL 200 entries
as "fresh" — GPU meltdown from 200 simultaneous births. Detect the
overflow and drop the batch with a console.warn, advancing the
high-water mark so next frame is normal.

* test(v2.3): full e2e + integration coverage for Pulse + Birth Ritual
Post-ship verification pass — five parallel write-agents produced 229 new
tests across vitest units, vitest integration, and Playwright browser e2e.
Net suite: 361 vitest pass (up from 251, +110) and 9/9 Playwright pass on
back-to-back runs.
**toast.test.ts (NEW, 661 lines, 42 tests)**
Silent-lobotomy batch walk proven (multi-event tick processes ALL, not
just newest, oldest-first ordering preserved). Hover-panic pause/resume
with remaining-ms math. All 9 event type translations asserted, all 11
noise types asserted silent. ConnectionDiscovered 1500ms throttle.
MAX_VISIBLE=4 eviction. clear() tears down all timers. fireDemoSequence
staggers 4 toasts at 800ms intervals. vi.useFakeTimers + vi.mock of
eventFeed; vi.resetModules in beforeEach for module-singleton isolation.
**websocket.test.ts (NEW, 247 lines, 30 tests)**
injectEvent adds to front, respects MAX_EVENTS=200 with FIFO eviction,
triggers eventFeed emissions. All 6 derived stores (isConnected,
heartbeat, memoryCount, avgRetention, suppressedCount, uptimeSeconds)
verified — defaults, post-heartbeat values, clearEvents preserves
lastHeartbeat. 13 formatUptime boundary cases (0/59/60/3599/3600/
86399/86400 seconds + negative / NaN / ±Infinity).
**effects.test.ts (EXTENDED, +501 lines, +21 tests, 51 total)**
createBirthOrb full lifecycle — sprite count (halo + core), cosmic
center via camera.quaternion, gestation phase (position lock, opacity
rise, scale easing, color tint), flight Bezier arc above linear
midpoint at t=0.5, dynamic mid-flight target redirect. onArrive fires
exactly once at frame 139. Post-arrival fade + disposal cleans scene
children. Sanhedrin Shatter: target goes undefined mid-flight →
onArrive NEVER called, implosion spawned, halo blood-red, eventual
cleanup. dispose() cleans active orbs. Multiple simultaneous orbs.
Custom gestation/flight frame opts honored. Zero-alloc invariant
smoke test (6 orbs × 150 frames, no leaks).
**nodes.test.ts (EXTENDED, +197 lines, +10 tests, 42 total)**
addNode({isBirthRitual:true}) hides mesh/glow/label immediately,
stamps birthRitualPending sentinel with correct totalFrames +
targetScale, does NOT enqueue materialization. igniteNode flips
visibility + enqueues materialization. Idempotent — second call
no-op. Non-ritual nodes unaffected. Unknown id is safe no-op.
Position stored in positions map while invisible (force sim still
sees it). removeNode + late igniteNode is safe.
**events.test.ts (EXTENDED, +268 lines, +7 tests, 55 total)**
MemoryCreated → mesh hidden immediately, 2 birth-orb sprites added,
ZERO RingGeometry meshes and ZERO Points particles at spawn. Full
ritual drive → onArrive fires, node visible + materializing, sentinel
cleared. Newton's Cradle: target mesh scale exactly 0.001 * 1.8 right
after arrival. Dual shockwave: exactly 2 Ring meshes added. Re-read
live position on arrival — force-sim motion during ritual → burst
lands at the NEW position. Sanhedrin abort path → rainbow burst,
shockwave, ripple wave are NEVER called (vi.spyOn).
**three-mock.ts (EXTENDED)**
Added Color.setRGB — production Three.js has it, the Sanhedrin-
Shatter path in effects.ts uses it. Two write-agents independently
monkey-patched the mock inline; consolidated as a 5-line mock
addition so tests stay clean.
**e2e/pulse-toast.spec.ts (NEW, 235 lines, 6 Playwright tests)**
Navigate /dashboard/settings → click Preview Pulse → assert first
toast appears within 500ms → assert >= 2 toasts visible at peak.
Click-to-dismiss removes clicked toast (matched by aria-label).
Hover survives >8s past the 5.5s dwell. Keyboard Enter dismisses
focused toast. CSS animation-play-state:paused on .toast-progress-
fill while hovered, running on mouseleave. Screenshots attached to
HTML report. Zero backend dependency (fireDemoSequence is purely
client-side).
**e2e/birth-ritual.spec.ts (NEW, 199 lines, 3 Playwright tests)**
Canvas mounts on /dashboard/graph (gracefully test.fixme if MCP
backend absent). Settings button injection + SPA route to /graph
→ screenshot timeline at t=0/500/1200/2000/2400/3000ms attached
to HTML report. pageerror + console-error listeners catch any
crash (would re-surface FATAL 6 if reintroduced). Three back-to-
back births — no errors, canvas still dispatches clicks.

* fix(graph): default /api/graph to newest-memory center, add sort param
memory_timeline PR #37 exposed the same class of bug in the graph
endpoint: the dashboard Graph page (and the /api/graph endpoint it
hits) defaulted to centering on the most-connected memory, ran BFS at
depth 3, and capped the subgraph at 150 nodes. On a mature corpus this
clustered the visualization around a historical hotspot and hid freshly
ingested memories that hadn't accumulated edges yet. User-visible
symptom: TimeSlider on /graph showing "Feb 21 → Mar 1 2026" when the
database actually contains memories through today (Apr 20).
**Backend (`crates/vestige-mcp/src/dashboard/handlers.rs`):**
- `GraphParams` gains `sort: Option<String>` (accepted: "recent" |
"connected", unknown falls back to "recent").
- New internal `GraphSort` enum + case-insensitive `parse()`.
- Extracted `default_center_id(storage, sort)` so handler logic and
tests share the same branching. Recent path picks `get_all_nodes(1,
0)` (ORDER BY created_at DESC). Connected path picks
`get_most_connected_memory`, degrading gracefully to recent if the
DB has no edges yet.
- Default behaviour flipped from "connected" to "recent" — matches
user expectation of "show me my recent stuff".
**Dashboard (`apps/dashboard`):**
- `api.graph()` accepts `sort?: 'recent' | 'connected'` with JSDoc
explaining the rationale.
- `/graph/+page.svelte` passes `sort: 'recent'` when no query or
center_id is active. Query / center_id paths unchanged — they
already carry their own centering intent.
**Tests:** 6 new unit tests in `handlers::tests`:
- `graph_sort_parse_defaults_to_recent` (None, empty, garbage,
"recent", "Recent", "RECENT")
- `graph_sort_parse_accepts_connected_case_insensitive`
- `default_center_id_recent_returns_newest_node` — ingest 3 nodes,
assert newest is picked
- `default_center_id_connected_prefers_hub_over_newest` — wire a hub
node with 3 spokes, then ingest a newer "lonely" node; assert the
hub wins in Connected mode even though it's older
- `default_center_id_connected_falls_back_to_recent_when_no_edges`
— fresh DB with no connections still returns newest, not 404
- `default_center_id_returns_not_found_on_empty_db` — both modes
return 404 cleanly on empty storage

* feat(v2.4): UI expansion — 8 new surfaces exposing the cognitive engine
Sam asked: "Build EVERY SINGLE MISSING UI PIECE." 10 parallel agents shipped
10 new viewports over the existing Rust backend, then 11 audit agents
line-by-line reviewed each one, extracted pure-logic helpers, fixed ~30
bugs, and shipped 549 new unit tests. Everything wired through the layout
with single-key shortcuts and a live theme toggle.
**Eight new routes**
- `/reasoning` — Reasoning Theater: Cmd+K ask palette → animated 8-stage
deep_reference pipeline + FSRS-trust-scored evidence cards +
contradiction arcs rendered as live SVG between evidence nodes
- `/duplicates` — threshold-driven cluster detector with winner selection,
Merge/Review/Dismiss actions, debounced slider
- `/dreams` — Dream Cinema: trigger dream + scrubbable 5-stage replay
(Replay → Cross-reference → Strengthen → Prune → Transfer) + insight
cards with novelty glow
- `/schedule` — FSRS Review Calendar: 6×7 grid with urgency color
bands (overdue/today/week/future), retention sparkline, expand-day list
- `/importance` — 4-channel radar (Novelty/Arousal/Reward/Attention) with
composite score + top-important list
- `/activation` — live spreading-activation view: search → SVG concentric
rings with decay animation + live-mode event feed
- `/contradictions` — 2D cosmic constellation of conflicting memories,
arcs colored by severity, tooltips with previews
- `/patterns` — cross-project pattern transfer heatmap with category
filters, top-transferred sidebar
**Three layout additions**
- `AmbientAwarenessStrip` — slim top band with retention vitals, at-risk
count, active intentions, recent dream, activity sparkline, dreaming
indicator, Sanhedrin-watch flash. Pure `$derived` over existing stores.
- `ThemeToggle` — dark/light/auto cycle with matchMedia listener,
localStorage persistence, SSR-safe, reduced-motion-aware. Rendered in
sidebar footer next to the connection dot.
- `MemoryAuditTrail` — per-memory Sources panel integrated as a
Content/Audit tab into the existing /memories expansion.
**Pure-logic helper modules extracted (for testability + reuse)**
reasoning-helpers, duplicates-helpers, dream-helpers, schedule-helpers,
audit-trail-helpers, awareness-helpers, contradiction-helpers,

**Bugs fixed during audit (not exhaustive)**
- Trust-color inconsistency between EvidenceCard and the page confidence
ring (0.75 boundary split emerald vs amber)
- `new Date('garbage').toLocaleDateString()` returned literal "Invalid Date"
in 3 components — all now return em-dash or raw string
- NaN propagation in `Math.max(0, Math.min(1, NaN))` across clamps
- Off-by-one PRNG in audit-trail seeded mock (seed === UINT32_MAX yielded
rand() === 1.0 → index out of bounds)
- Duplicates dismissals keyed by array index broke on re-fetch; now keyed
by sorted cluster member IDs with stale-dismissal pruning
- Empty-cluster crash in DuplicateCluster.pickWinner
- Undefined tags crash in DuplicateCluster.safeTags
- Debounce timer leak in threshold slider (missing onDestroy cleanup)
- Schedule day-vs-hour granularity mismatch between calendar cell and
sidebar list ("today" in one, "in 1d" in the other)
- Schedule 500-memory hard cap silently truncated; bumped to 2000 + banner
- Schedule DST boundary bug in daysBetween (wall-clock math vs
startOfDay-normalized)
- Dream stage clamp now handles NaN/Infinity/floats
- Dream double-click debounce via `if (dreaming) return`
- Theme setTheme runtime validation; initTheme idempotence (listener +
style-element dedup on repeat calls)
- ContradictionArcs node radius unclamped (trust < 0 or > 1 rendered
invalid sizes); tooltip position clamp (could push off-canvas)
- ContradictionArcs $state closure capture (width/height weren't reactive
in the derived layout block)
- Activation route was MISSING from the repo — audit agent created it
with identity-based event filtering and proper RAF cleanup
- Layout: ThemeToggle was imported but never rendered — now in sidebar
footer; sidebar overflow-y-auto added for the 16-entry nav

* chore(release): v2.0.8 "Pulse"
Bundled release: Reasoning Theater wired to the 8-stage deep_reference
cognitive pipeline, Pulse InsightToast, Memory Birth Ritual (v2.3
Terrarium), 7 new dashboard surfaces (/duplicates, /dreams, /schedule,
/importance, /activation, /contradictions, /patterns), 3D graph
brightness system with auto distance-compensation + user slider, and
contradiction-detection + primary-selection hardening in the
cross_reference tool. Intel Mac (x86_64-apple-darwin) also flows through
to the release matrix from PR #43.
Added:
- POST /api/deep_reference — HTTP surface for the 8-stage pipeline
- DeepReferenceCompleted WebSocket event (primary + supporting +
contradicting memory IDs for downstream graph animation)
- /reasoning route, full UI + Cmd+K Ask palette
- 7 new dashboard surfaces exposing the cognitive engine
- Graph brightness slider + localStorage persistence + distance-based
emissive compensation so nodes don't disappear into fog at zoom-out
Fixed:
- Contradiction-detection false positives: adjacent-domain memories no
longer flagged as conflicts (NEGATION_PAIRS wildcards removed,
shared-words floor 2 → 4, topic-sim floor 0.15 → 0.55, STAGE 5
overlap floor 0.15 → 0.4)
- Primary-memory selection: unified composite 0.5 × relevance + 0.2 ×
trust + 0.3 × term_presence with hard topic-term filter, closing the
class of bug where off-topic high-trust memories won queries about
specific subjects
- Graph default-load fallback from sort=recent to sort=connected when
the newest memory is isolated, both backend and client
Changed:
- Reasoning page information hierarchy: chain renders first as hero,
confidence meter + Primary Source citation footer below
- Cargo feature split: embeddings code-only + ort-download | ort-dynamic
backends; defaults preserve identical behavior for existing consumers
- CI release-build now gates PRs too so multi-platform regressions
surface pre-merge
memory_timeline ran node_type and tags as Rust-side `retain` after
`query_time_range`, which applied `LIMIT` in SQL before the retain
saw anything. Against a corpus where one tag or type dominates, a
sparse match could be crowded out of the limit window — the tool
reported "no matches" when matches existed.
Fix: thread `node_type: Option<&str>` and `tags: Option<&[String]>`
through `query_time_range` and apply both as `WHERE` predicates so
`LIMIT` kicks in after filtering. Tag matching uses `tags LIKE '%"tag"%'` —
the quoted pattern pins to exact tags and rejects substring false
positives (e.g. `alpha` no longer matches `alphabet`).
Regression tests in `tools/timeline.rs`:
- test_timeline_node_type_filter_sparse: 10 `fact` + 2 `concept`,
`limit=5`, query `concept` — asserts 2 rows; fails on pre-fix code.
- test_timeline_tag_filter_sparse: 10 rows tagged `common` + 2 tagged
`rare`, `limit=5`, query `rare` — asserts 2 rows; same shape for tags.
- test_timeline_tag_filter_exact_match: one `alpha` row + one
`alphabet` row, query `alpha` — asserts exactly 1 row.
Dashboard caller updated to pass `None, None` for the new filter
params. 19/19 timeline tests pass; 1295/1295 workspace tests pass;
clippy clean on vestige-core and vestige-mcp.

CI runs on stable Rust which advanced from 1.93 to 1.95, introducing
two newly-enforced lints under -D warnings:
- clippy::unnecessary_sort_by (12 sites) — rewrite sort_by closures
that only call .cmp on Copy keys as sort_by_key, using std::cmp::Reverse
for the descending ones.
- clippy::collapsible_match (1 site) — merge the MemoryState::Dormant
inner if into a match guard. The equivalent rewrite for the Ping/Pong
arm in websocket.rs is blocked by a move of non-Copy Bytes across the
match-guard boundary, so that one site gets an explicit #[allow].
Files touched:
- crates/vestige-core/src/advanced/{chains,compression,cross_project,reconsolidation}.rs
- crates/vestige-core/src/codebase/{git,relationships}.rs
- crates/vestige-core/src/neuroscience/{importance_signals,memory_states,predictive_retrieval}.rs
- crates/vestige-mcp/src/tools/{changelog,cross_reference}.rs
- crates/vestige-mcp/src/dashboard/websocket.rs
Verified: cargo clippy --workspace -- -D warnings green on rustc 1.95.0;
cargo test --workspace unchanged (1292 tests green).
Fixes the biggest UI gap flagged by the v2.0.7 audit: the `suppress`
tool has shipped since v2.0.5 with full graph event handlers
(MemorySuppressed, MemoryUnsuppressed, Rac1CascadeSwept) and violet
implosion animations — but zero trigger from anywhere except the MCP
layer. Dashboard users literally could not forget a memory without
dropping to raw MCP calls.
Backend (Axum):
- `POST /api/memories/{id}/suppress` optionally accepts `{"reason": "..."}`
and returns the full response payload (suppression_count, prior_count,
retrieval_penalty, reversible_until, estimated_cascade_neighbors,
labile_window_hours). Emits `MemorySuppressed` so the 3D graph plays
the compounding violet implosion per the v2.0.6 event handlers.
- `POST /api/memories/{id}/unsuppress` reverses within the 24h labile
window. Returns `stillSuppressed: bool` so the UI can distinguish a
full reversal from a compounded-down state. Emits `MemoryUnsuppressed`
for the rainbow burst reversal animation.
Frontend:
- `api.memories.suppress(id, reason?)` and `api.memories.unsuppress(id)`
wired through `apps/dashboard/src/lib/stores/api.ts`.
- Two new TypeScript response types (`SuppressResult`, `UnsuppressResult`)
in `lib/types/index.ts` mirroring the backend JSON shapes.
- Memories page gets a third action button alongside Promote / Demote /
Delete: violet "Suppress" with a hover-tooltip explaining "Top-down
inhibition (Anderson 2025). Compounds. Reversible for 24h." The button
ships `reason: "dashboard trigger"` so the audit log carries source
attribution.
Tests: 425 mcp + 366 core all pass, svelte-check 580 files 0 errors.
The export format match at the write-out site was `_ => unreachable!()`,
supposedly safe because the early-return gate at the top of the function
rejects anything that isn't "json" or "jsonl". That gate works today,
but `unreachable!()` converts any future gate-vs-match drift (case
sensitivity bug, refactor, new format branch added above but not below)
into a user-visible panic through the MCP dispatcher instead of a clean
error response.
Replace with a typed `Err(format!("unsupported export format: {:?}",
other))` so the defence lives at both layers. Same runtime behaviour
for every valid input; strictly safer for any invalid input that would
have slipped through a future refactor.
Both functions have been `#[allow(dead_code)]` since v1.7 with in-file
comments explicitly routing users to `execute_system_status` instead.
Zero callers anywhere in crates/ (the grep hits on execute_stats in
memory_states.rs, tagging.rs, stats.rs are same-named but different-
module functions — distinct call paths, distinct purposes).
Deleted:
- `health_check_schema` (dead schema helper)
- `stats_schema` (dead schema helper)
- `execute_health_check` (71 LOC)
- `execute_stats` (179 LOC including the FSRS preview + state
transition + compression group + cognitive health sub-sections that
`execute_system_status` already reproduces)
Also removed now-orphaned imports: `MemoryLifecycle`, `MemoryState`,
`MemoryForCompression`. `FSRSScheduler`, `CognitiveEngine`,
`tokio::sync::Mutex` remain because other functions still use them.
Net: ~-250 LOC, zero behavior change, existing system_status tests
(6/6) pass, workspace builds clean.
The pre-merge audit flagged that 4 of the 5 branch commits shipped
with zero assertions exercising the new code paths — existing tests
would have passed if the fixes were reverted to their broken state.
Close that gap with 7 new tests, each touching one specific
behavior:
migrations.rs (2 tests, crates/vestige-core)
- test_apply_migrations_advances_to_v11_and_drops_dead_tables:
end-to-end runs the whole V1..V11 chain on an in-memory DB and
asserts schema_version=11, knowledge_edges absent,
compressed_memories absent.
- test_v11_is_idempotent_on_replay: rewinds schema_version to 10
after a successful apply and re-runs apply_migrations to prove
`DROP TABLE IF EXISTS` tolerates the already-dropped state.
Guards against a future refactor accidentally using `DROP TABLE`
without the guard.
predict.rs (1 test)
- test_predict_degraded_false_on_happy_path: asserts the new
`predict_degraded` JSON field is present and `false` on a fresh
cognitive engine.
changelog.rs (2 tests)
- test_changelog_malformed_start_returns_error: asserts a bad
`start` value produces a helpful `Invalid start ... ISO-8601`
error instead of panicking or silently dropping the filter.
- test_changelog_filter_field_echoes_start: asserts the response
`filter.start` field echoes the applied bound so callers can
confirm their window was honored.
intention_unified.rs (3 tests)
- test_check_includes_snoozed_when_flag_set: creates an intention,
snoozes it, calls check with include_snoozed=true, asserts it
appears in either triggered or pending.
- test_check_excludes_snoozed_by_default: same setup, default
flag, asserts the snoozed intention does NOT appear — locks in
the pre-v2.0.7 behavior for every non-opt-in caller.
- test_check_item_exposes_status_field: asserts every item in the
check response carries the new `status` field.
All tests pass. vestige-core moves 366 -> 368, vestige-mcp moves
419 -> 425. Zero regressions under default or qwen3-embed features.
Clippy still clean on both crates.
Two fixes surfaced by the pre-merge audit of chore/v2.0.7-clean:
1. Security MEDIUM (audit M2): `graph/+page.svelte` was rendering
`e.message` verbatim into the DOM. A backend error that carried a
filesystem path (e.g. a wrapped rusqlite error with the DB path in
the message) would leak that path to any browser viewer. SvelteKit
auto-escapes the interpolation so raw XSS is blocked, but the info-
disclosure is real. Now we strip `/path/to/file.{sqlite,rs,db,toml,
lock}` patterns and cap the rendered string at 200 chars before it
hits the DOM. The regex used to gate the empty-state branch still
runs against the raw message so detection accuracy isn't affected.
2. Correctness nit (audit PATH D): `execute_check` in
`intention_unified.rs` was dropping `intention.status` and
`intention.snoozed_until` from the response JSON. When
`include_snoozed=true` surfaces both active and snoozed intentions
in the same list, callers cannot distinguish an active-triggered
intention from a snoozed-overdue one. Expose both fields so the
consumer (dashboard, CLI, Claude Code) can render them
appropriately.
Neither change affects the default code path under
`include_snoozed=false`; regression risk is zero.
server.rs:212 was documenting v2.0.4's state (23 tools) but the
handle_tools_list test two functions below asserts 24 tools since
v2.0.5 (when `suppress` landed). Align the comment with the assertion
and point at the assertion as the source of truth so future tool
additions can't introduce comment drift without also tripping a test
failure.
Both parameters were advertised in the MCP tool schemas since v1.7+ but
were silently ignored at runtime — a schema-contract violation. Any
caller that set them got unfiltered results with no error or warning,
which is the worst possible failure mode for a public tool surface.
changelog.rs
- Parse `start` / `end` as ISO-8601/RFC-3339 timestamps; return an
explicit error on malformed input (previously: silent drop).
- In system-wide mode, over-fetch 4× limit when a time window is set,
then apply an inclusive [start, end] filter in Rust before the
sort+truncate. SQL-level filtering is a v2.1+ optimisation.
- Response JSON gains a `filter` field echoing the applied bounds so
callers can confirm the window was honored.
- Per-memory mode still ignores the window (semantically meaningless
when scoped to one memory's transition history).
intention_unified.rs
- `execute_check`: when `include_snoozed=true`, fold snoozed
intentions back into the check pool so their time/context triggers
can wake them when a matching condition appears. Previously
snoozed intentions were invisible to check regardless of the arg.
- Deduplicates defensively via a HashSet on intention.id in case
storage ever returns overlap.
Tests: 9 changelog + 37 intention_unified tests continue to pass.
Full vestige-mcp lib suite 419 passing, 0 failures.
All four PredictiveMemory calls (predict_needed_memories, get_proactive_suggestions,
get_top_interests, prediction_accuracy) return Result, and all four were being
swallowed by `.unwrap_or_default()` / `.unwrap_or(0.0)` — every lock-poisoning or
internal error produced a response indistinguishable from a genuine cold-start
"I have no predictions yet." Callers (dashboard, Claude Code, Cursor) had no way
to tell "the system is broken" from "there genuinely isn't anything to predict."
Now each call uses `unwrap_or_else` to (a) `tracing::warn!` the error with its
source channel for observability, (b) flip a local `degraded` flag. The JSON
response gains a new `predict_degraded: bool` field. Empty + degraded=false =
cold start (expected). Empty + degraded=true = something went wrong, check logs.
6 existing predict tests pass (return shape unchanged on success path).
The MCP `instructions` field is injected into every connecting client's
system prompt on Initialize — Claude Code, Cursor, Zed, Windsurf, and
anyone else running Vestige. That reach demands a default that serves
every user, not the project maintainer's personal workflow.
Default ("minimal", 3 sentences) tells the client how to use Vestige
and how to respond to explicit feedback signals. It is safe for every
audience: competitive coders, hobbyists saving recipes, Rails devs
saving bug fixes, enterprise deployments under system-prompt review.
The full composition mandate — Composing / Never-composed /
Recommendation shape + FSRS-trust blocking phrase + origin case study
— is load-bearing for decision-adjacent work but misfires on trivial
retrievals ("what's my favorite color"). Opt in on your own machine
with `VESTIGE_SYSTEM_PROMPT_MODE=full`; four hundred strangers do not
inherit one maintainer's trauma scar on every session.
Extracted into build_instructions() so the branch is a single env-var
check on Initialize, not a compile-time switch. main.rs --help output
advertises the new variable alongside VESTIGE_DASHBOARD_ENABLED.
First AI memory system to model forgetting as a neuroscience-grounded
PROCESS rather than passive decay. Adds the `suppress` MCP tool (#24),
Rac1 cascade worker, migration V10, and dashboard forgetting indicators.
Based on:
- Anderson, Hanslmayr & Quaegebeur (2025), Nat Rev Neurosci — right
lateral PFC as the domain-general inhibitory controller; SIF
compounds with each stopping attempt.
- Cervantes-Sandoval et al. (2020), Front Cell Neurosci PMC7477079 —
Rac1 GTPase as the active synaptic destabilization mechanism.
What's new:
* `suppress` MCP tool — each call compounds `suppression_count` and
subtracts a `0.15 × count` penalty (saturating at 80%) from
retrieval scores during hybrid search. Distinct from delete
(removes) and demote (one-shot).
* Rac1 cascade worker — background sweep piggybacks the 6h
consolidation loop, walks `memory_connections` edges from
recently-suppressed seeds, applies attenuated FSRS decay to
co-activated neighbors. You don't just forget Jake — you fade
the café, the roommate, the birthday.
* 24h labile window — reversible via `suppress({id, reverse: true})`
within 24 hours. Matches Nader reconsolidation semantics.
* Migration V10 — additive-only (`suppression_count`, `suppressed_at`
+ partial indices). All v2.0.x DBs upgrade seamlessly on first launch.
* Dashboard: `ForgettingIndicator.svelte` pulses when suppressions
are active. 3D graph nodes dim to 20% opacity when suppressed.
New WebSocket events: `MemorySuppressed`, `MemoryUnsuppressed`,
`Rac1CascadeSwept`. Heartbeat carries `suppressed_count`.
* Search pipeline: SIF penalty inserted into the accessibility stage
so it stacks on top of passive FSRS decay.
* Tool count bumped 23 → 24. Cognitive modules 29 → 30.
Memories persist — they are INHIBITED, not erased. `memory.get(id)`
returns full content through any number of suppressions. The 24h
labile window is a grace period for regret.
Also fixes issue #31 (dashboard graph view buggy) as a companion UI
bug discovered during the v2.0.5 audit cycle:
* Root cause: node glow `SpriteMaterial` had no `map`, so
`THREE.Sprite` rendered as a solid-coloured 1×1 plane. Additive
blending + `UnrealBloomPass(0.8, 0.4, 0.85)` amplified the square
edges into hard-edged glowing cubes.
* Fix: shared 128×128 radial-gradient `CanvasTexture` singleton used
as the sprite map. Retuned bloom to `(0.55, 0.6, 0.2)`. Halved fog
density (0.008 → 0.0035). Edges bumped from dark navy `0x4a4a7a`
to brand violet `0x8b5cf6` with higher opacity. Added explicit
`scene.background` and a 2000-point starfield for depth.
* 21 regression tests added in `ui-fixes.test.ts` locking every
invariant in (shared texture singleton, depthWrite:false, scale
×6, bloom magic numbers via source regex, starfield presence).

Closes#31
Exact keyword matches (e.g. unique proper nouns like "Valladares") were
buried by semantic scoring in hybrid search. With a small limit, the
exact match could be missing entirely from results.
Adds a dedicated Stage 0 keyword-only pass (keyword_weight=1.0,
semantic_weight=0.0) before the main hybrid search. Results with strong
keyword scores (>= 0.8) are collected and merged into the hybrid results
via dedup. In the reranker stage, these keyword-priority results bypass
the cross-encoder entirely and receive a 2x score boost to survive
downstream pipeline stages (temporal, FSRS, utility, competition).
Bug inherited from Vestige 2.0.1.

Type filtering (include_types/exclude_types) was applied post-fetch after
the database LIMIT, which could return zero results when all top-N
results were of the filtered type. This pushes type filters into the SQL
WHERE clause in keyword_search_with_scores() so they apply before the
limit. Semantic results still get post-fetch filtering as a safety net
since the vector index cannot filter by type.
Also adds hybrid_search_filtered() as the new primary method, with the
original hybrid_search() delegating to it with no filters for backward
compatibility. The MCP search tool now exposes include_types and
exclude_types parameters.
Includes 5 new test cases covering include, exclude, precedence,
empty results, and backward compatibility.

- Dashboard now disabled by default to reduce memory footprint
- Enable with VESTIGE_DASHBOARD_ENABLED=true
- Update --help text to document new env var
The Stage 8 `recommended` selector and the evidence sort both rank by
FSRS-6 trust only, discarding the `combined_score` signal that the
upstream hybrid_search + cross-encoder reranker just computed. Confidence
is then derived from `recommended.trust + evidence_count`, neither of
which moves with the query — so any query against the same corpus
returns the same primary memory and the same confidence score.
Empirical reproduction (15 deep_reference probes against an 11-memory
corpus, 9 with a unique correct answer + 6 with no relevant memories):
- Distinct primary memories returned : 1 / 15
- Confidence values returned : 1 distinct (0.82 for all)
- Ground-truth accuracy on specific queries : 1 / 9 (11.1%)
The single hit is coincidental: the always-returned memory happened to
be the correct answer for one query. Random guessing across the 11-memory
corpus would be ~9% baseline, so the tool is performing at random.
Fix
---
Replace trust-only ranking at three sites with a 50/50 composite of
combined_score (query relevance) and FSRS-6 trust:
let composite = |s: &ScoredMemory| s.combined_score as f64 * 0.5 + s.trust * 0.5;
Used in:
- cross_reference.rs:573 — `recommended` max_by
- cross_reference.rs:589 — `non_superseded` evidence sort_by
- cross_reference.rs:622 — `base_confidence` formula
The 50/50 weighting is a design choice — see PR body for the knob to
tweak if a different blend is preferred. The pre-existing updated_at
tiebreaker is preserved.
Tests
-----
Two regression tests, both verified to FAIL on `main` and PASS with the
fix via negative control (temporarily set the composite weights to
1.0 trust + 0.0 relevance and confirmed both tests fail again):
- test_recommended_uses_query_relevance_not_just_trust
Two-memory corpus, ingested in order so the off-topic memory wins
the trust tiebreaker. Query targets the on-topic memory. The fix
ensures `recommended` is the on-topic one.
- test_confidence_varies_with_query_relevance
Single-memory corpus. Identical execute() calls with a relevant
query and an irrelevant query. The fix ensures the relevant
query produces higher confidence.
Full crate suite: 410 / 410 passing (was 408 + 2 new).
Out of scope
------------
While running the live MCP probes I observed two further inconsistencies
in `cross_reference.rs` that I cannot reproduce in cargo test (the
synthetic test environment with mock embeddings does not trigger the
required combined_score > 0.2 floor condition):
- The `effective_sim` floor at line 551 fabricates contradictions
between memories with no real topical overlap when one contains a
CORRECTION_SIGNALS keyword.
- The Stage 5 `contradictions` field (strict) and the Stage 7
`pair_relations` feeding the reasoning text (loose, post-floor)
disagree, producing responses where `reasoning` claims N
contradictions while `contradictions` is empty and `status` is
"resolved".
I have empirical data for both from live MCP usage but no reproducible
cargo test, so they are intentionally not addressed in this PR. Happy to
file them as a separate issue with the raw probe data if useful.

The public JSON schema in schema() declares `in_minutes` and `file_pattern`
in snake_case, but TriggerSpec uses `#[serde(rename_all = "camelCase")]`
which makes serde expect `inMinutes` / `filePattern`. Snake_case inputs are
silently dropped to None, so time-based intentions with `in_minutes` never
fire (triggerAt becomes null) and file_pattern-only context intentions
never match.
Added `#[serde(alias = ...)]` so both naming conventions deserialize
correctly — purely additive, existing camelCase callers unaffected.
Two regression tests added, verified to FAIL without the aliases
(negative control confirmed the snake_case duration test sees
`triggerAt: null` and the file_pattern test sees an empty `triggered`
array). Both pass with the fix. Full crate suite: 408/408 passing.
Related to #25 (Bug #8 was half-fixed — check-side re-derivation works,
but the set-side was still dropping the value before it could be persisted).
- Removed vestige-agent and vestige-agent-py from workspace members
(ARC-AGI-3 code, not part of Vestige release — caused CI failure)
- Improved deep_reference reasoning chain: fuller output with arrows on
supersession reasoning, longer primary finding preview, fallback message
when no relations found, boosted relation detection for search results
with high combined_score

Handle 'vestige/memory://' and 'vestige/codebase://' URIs by stripping the

MCP clients like OpenCode that prepend the provider name to resource URIs.
Fixes#19
When memories are created, promoted, deleted, or dreamed via MCP tools,
the 3D graph now shows spectacular live animations:
- Rainbow particle burst + elastic scale-up on MemoryCreated
- Ripple wave cascading to nearby nodes
- Green pulse + node growth on MemoryPromoted
- Implosion + dissolution on MemoryDeleted
- Edge growth animation on ConnectionDiscovered
- Purple cascade on DreamStarted/DreamProgress/DreamCompleted
- FIFO eviction at 50 live nodes to guard performance
Also: graph center defaults to most-connected node, legacy HTML
redirects to SvelteKit dashboard, CSS height chain fix in layout.

3 new MCP tools (16 → 19 total):
- importance_score: 4-channel neuroscience importance scoring (novelty/arousal/reward/attention)
- session_checkpoint: batch smart_ingest up to 20 items with PE Gating
- find_duplicates: cosine similarity clustering with union-find for dedup
CLI: vestige ingest command for memory ingestion via command line
Core: made get_node_embedding public, added get_all_embeddings for dedup scanning

Add web dashboard (axum) on port 3927 with memory browser, search, and
system stats. New MCP tools: memory_timeline, memory_changelog,
health_check, consolidate, stats, backup, export, gc. Search now supports
detail_level (brief/summary/full) to control token usage. Add backup_to()
and get_recent_state_transitions() to storage layer. Bump to v1.2.0.
P0 fixes:
- Add `vestige backup <path>` — full DB copy with WAL checkpoint flush
- Add `vestige export --format json|jsonl [--tags] [--since] <path>` —
paginated memory export with tag/date filtering
- Add `vestige gc --min-retention 0.1 [--max-age-days] [--dry-run] [--yes]`
— bulk cleanup of stale memories with safety prompts
- Fix apply_decay() scaling: batched pagination (500 rows/batch) with
explicit transactions instead of loading all nodes into memory
- Fix hidden MCP resources: memory://insights and memory://consolidation-log
now listed in resources/list (were implemented but undiscoverable)
P1 fixes:
- Add auto-consolidation on server startup: FSRS-6 decay runs in background
after 2s delay, only if last consolidation was >6 hours ago
- Add encryption at rest via SQLCipher feature flag: use --features encryption
with VESTIGE_ENCRYPTION_KEY env var (bundled-sqlite and encryption are
mutually exclusive)

- Route ingest tool through smart_ingest (Prediction Error Gating) to
prevent duplicate memories when content is similar to existing entries
- Fix Intel Mac release build: use macos-13 runner for x86_64-apple-darwin
(macos-latest is now ARM64, causing silent cross-compile failures)
- Sync npm package version to 1.1.2 (was 1.0.0 in package.json, 1.1.0
in postinstall.js BINARY_VERSION)
- Add vestige-restore to npm makeExecutable list
- Remove abandoned packages/core/ TypeScript package (pre-Rust implementation
referencing FSRS-5, chromadb, ollama — 32K lines of dead code)
- Sync workspace Cargo.toml version to 1.1.2
Closes#5

- Add #![allow(dead_code)] to deprecated tool modules (kept for
backwards compatibility but not exposed in MCP tool list)
- Mark unused functions with #[allow(dead_code)] annotations
- Fix unused variable warnings (prefix with _)
- Apply clippy auto-fixes for redundant closures and derives
- Fix test to account for protocol version negotiation
- Reorganize tools/mod.rs to clarify active vs deprecated tools
Security review: LOW RISK - no critical vulnerabilities found
Dead code review: deprecated tools properly annotated

- Fix silent errors in stdio.rs: clients now receive fallback error
responses instead of hanging when JSON serialization fails
- Fix UTF-8 panics in keyword.rs: use char-aware slicing instead of
byte offsets for query sanitization and term highlighting
- Fix UTF-8 panics in prospective_memory.rs: replace hard-coded byte
offsets with char-aware slicing for natural language parsing
- Fix UTF-8 panics in git.rs: convert byte positions to char positions
before slicing commit messages
- Fix feature flag bug in vestige-mcp: add proper [features] section
to forward embeddings and vector-search features from vestige-core,
enabling the #[cfg(feature = "embeddings")] initialization code

When embeddings fail to initialize in the MCP server context (e.g., due
to working directory issues), the error was silently swallowed and
smart_ingest would fall back to regular ingest without explanation.
Changes:
- Add init_embeddings() method to Storage for explicit initialization
- Initialize embeddings at MCP server startup with error logging
- Add check_ready() method to EmbeddingService for error access
- Log warning when is_ready() returns false
Now users will see clear error messages like:
"Failed to initialize embedding service: ..."
"Hint: Check FASTEMBED_CACHE_PATH or ensure ~/.fastembed_cache exists"
