The identity map holds weak references. A branch row nobody keeps a strong
reference to is collected between two nodes, so resolving the head inside the
placement loop read it back from the database for every node in the flush: 201
SELECTs on `branches` to write 200 actions, and 36 s -> 45 s on the same 297
tests. Nothing about any result changed, which is why only a stopwatch found
it, and why there is now a test counting the reads.
Also: the two reads left un-pathed on purpose say so where they live —
`max_action_index` allocates the legacy `index` and must stay adventure-wide
or two branches issue the same number, and export is a flat v1 bundle whose
reader has no idea branches exist. And `Adventure.actions` keeps its `index`
ordering, because ordering the collection by depth would not make it a story:
it is every branch's actions, and a path is a selection out of it.
318 tests green.

Every read of an action now goes through a single module. `context/lineage.py`
turns a branch's stored lineage into the OR-of-ranges that is "this story", and
history, paging, the newest-action lookups, the index screen and the scripting
history API all select through it. A forgotten clause does not raise — it
quietly assembles a page, or a prompt, out of two different stories — so the
clause lives in one place rather than in a convention.
The read that mattered most was the shortcut: `_from_memory` sliced
`adventure.actions`, which is every branch's actions, not the path. It now cuts
the loaded collection down with the same predicate the SQL uses. Same trap one
layer up, and user-visible: `pipeline._history()` hands user scripts the story,
and was handing them the collection.
Tail reads window the lineage as well as the rows: the newest few entries cover
the context budget, so a story forked twenty times reads its tail with one
clause and costs 1.07x what an unforked story of the same length costs. The
estimate is depth arithmetic, and where a deleted action leaves a gap the read
notices it came up short and widens to the whole ancestry.
Ordering moves from `index` to `depth`, with `id` breaking ties. The two hold
the same numbers until retry stops mutating rows in SP4, but only one of them
is a position along a path.
One thing SP1 did not anticipate: wiring the writers was not enough. From here
a row without a branch is a row no read can see, and "every writer remembers"
has to hold for every fixture, script and test ever written — including the
SP0 baseline, which writes its actions straight to the database and must pass
unmodified. So the session enforces it: `tree.place_new_nodes` runs from
before_flush and places anything unplaced. The call sites keep their explicit
calls, because a node placed at the call site is placed before the code around
it reads it back.
316 tests green: the 297 from SP1, plus 19 in test_branch_clause.py.

Phase 14 SP1. The tree goes into the schema and nothing reads it yet: a
`branches` table, `branch_id`/`depth` on actions and memories, a head pointer
on adventures, migrations 46-52, and a server-side backfill that re-reads every
existing adventure as a tree with one branch. `depth` holds the number `index`
already held, gaps included, so no story changes — a linear story *is* a tree
with one branch, which is what makes the SP0 baseline passing unmodified the
pass condition rather than a hope.
The writer had to come with it. No migration will ever visit a row written
after it ran, so columns backfilled today and populated next subphase would
leave a hole exactly the width of one deploy, and from SP2 on a row without a
branch is a row no read can see. `app/tree.py` owns that: one module, because a
node written without a branch fails by disappearing rather than by raising.
Three things the schema itself insisted on:
- `adventures.head_branch_id` is a plain integer, not a foreign key. Pointing
both ways makes the two tables a cycle create_all cannot order, and its
escape hatch needs an ALTER SQLite does not have. It is a cache, and a head
naming a branch that is gone recovers onto the root.
- `lineage` is NOT NULL, so the backfill inserts `'[]'` and fills it in a
second pass guarded on `json_array_length(lineage) = 0` — not `= '[]'`,
because Postgres `json` has no equality operator.
- SQLite will not drop a column a foreign key names, which is how two existing
tests broke: they simulated an old database by rewinding the stamp while
leaving the new columns in place. Every ADD COLUMN migration is now
idempotent, and `tests/test_tree_migration.py` builds a genuine schema 45 by
rebuilding three tables from frozen DDL so the real ALTERs run.
297 tests green, 14 of them new. `branches` costs 0.1 kB of a 733.5 kB turn;
page load and index are byte-identical to the recorded figures.
The deploy that ships this needs one `VACUUM FULL actions;` on the direct
endpoint afterwards — it rewrites every row.

Opening a finished adventure fetched every action in one response: 589.5 kB on
production's longest, and nothing about that curve bends on its own, because a
story only ever gets longer. The page load now brings the newest 60 actions
and the reader pages up from there. On the harness's 600-action fixture that
is 606.0 kB down to 62.6 kB, and -- the part that matters -- it no longer
depends on how long the story is.
Paged by anchor, not by offset. `before_id` is the oldest action the caller
holds; the server returns what precedes it. An offset counted back from the
newest would shift every older position the moment a turn lands, which is
exactly when someone is likely to be scrolling, and the reader would get one
action twice and never see another. It also keeps working when the story stops
being a flat list: comparing indices to order a branch survives the story tree,
treating them as positions does not.
`has_more` comes from fetching one row past the window rather than from
counting. A deleted anchor -- undo, mid-scroll -- reports the end rather than
guessing and serving a page the reader already has.
GET /{id}/actions and POST /{id}/undo now return {actions, total, has_more}
instead of a bare list. Undo is the action most likely to be repeated several
times running, so having it re-fetch the whole story would have undone the
paging on the worst case.
The adventure payload gets its window through set_committed_value rather than
by assignment: the actions relationship cascades delete-orphan, so assigning a
60-item list to it would delete everything outside the window on the next
flush.
In Play.jsx the prepend is followed by a useLayoutEffect that restores the
scroll position, before paint, so the story does not jump. Loading starts 400px
from the top rather than at it, guarded by a ref because scroll fires far
faster than React re-renders. There is a button as well as the scroll trigger:
on a short viewport the transcript may not be tall enough to scroll at all, and
a reader who cannot scroll must still be able to reach the beginning.
Verified against a running backend and a 220-action adventure: the page load
returns 60 of 220 ending on the newest, and walking back from an anchor returns
exactly the actions before it.

deferred=True keeps the four heavy Action columns out of a bulk read, but it
makes narrowness the thing a future column has to remember to ask for -- and
both egress blowouts this project has had were a column nobody remembered.
Listing what each list response renders inverts the default: a new column
costs nothing on these paths until someone adds it to the tuple.
The adventures index was not merely a future risk. It loaded whole Adventure
entities to render a title, a stamp and a snippet, and an Adventure carries
script_state, world_state, placeholders, story_summary, memory, authors_note
and ai_instructions -- ~15 kB a row in production, none of it on that screen,
all of it fetched once per adventure on every index load. Measured on six
adventures with 78 kB of body each: 469.7 kB entity-loaded against 318 B
projected.
The memories drawer stops walking adventure.memories. The walk is what
retrieval used to do and the reason a turn cost megabytes; a relationship load
takes whole entities, so it picks up whatever the model happens to grow.
Nothing changes today -- embedding_blob is already deferred -- which is the
point.
world_delta stays on the action list because ActionOut.world_changes is
computed from it. Leaving it off would not save the bytes, it would spend them
one row at a time as a lazy load.
Two tests cover the index: one asserts the listing query names none of the
body columns, one puts a byte ceiling on six adventures carrying 80 kB apiece.

Retrieval walked adventure.memories, so every turn loaded every row of the
bank with its vector attached -- 3.1 MB, 96% of everything a turn read. It
now asks SQL which memories are in play (an id and a flag per row), ranks
against vectors held in process, and fetches text only for the five it picks.
Two more callers were doing the same thing and the production SQL could not
see them: _evict_over_capacity walked the bank to count it, and _embed_pending
walked it to find the rows with no vector. Both are counts and filters the
database can do without sending anything back.
one turn 3,258.7 kB -> 723.4 kB cold, 122.3 kB warm
run_post_turn 3,139.1 kB -> 0.7 kB
Insights 3,223.7 kB -> 117.9 kB
Memories drawer ~3.1 MB -> 23.6 kB
A played turn is turn plus post-turn work: 6.4 MB down to 123 kB.
The cache needs no invalidation callbacks, which is what makes it safe. A
vector can only change through set_vector, which drops that one entry;
anything that removes a memory from play leaves the catalogue query, and
entries missing from the catalogue are dropped on the next read. So eviction,
deletion and pruning have nothing to remember to call.
memories.embedded joins the blob, for the same reason actions.variant_count
sits beside actions.variants: with the vector deferred, every "is this
embedded?" check would otherwise be a 6 KB lazy load, once per row.
Capacity drops 200 -> 80, on retrieval quality as much as cost -- ranking two
hundred memories to pick five buries the five. Eviction was measured at scale
first: trimming 100 to 80 costs 0.8 kB and reads no vectors.

A 1536-dimension vector spelled out as JSON decimals is ~31 KB. The same
numbers packed as float32 are 6,144 bytes, and the whole bank is read on
every turn, so those bytes are paid over and over.
It is a format change, not a precision trade: the endpoints compute in
float32 and render that into JSON, so converting back recovers the original
bits exactly. Nothing is re-embedded and no API call is made -- migration 38
is a pure repack of what is already stored.
Unlike migrations 36 and 37 this backfill cannot be expressed in portable
SQL, so it comes through Python, batched, and pays a one-time read of every
vector to stop paying three megabytes a turn.
The JSON column stays, still written through set_vector, so a rollback finds
the vectors intact. Reading from the blob comes next; a follow-up migration
drops the old column once that is verified.
Migration SQL can now be a {dialect: sql} map -- BLOB and BYTEA have no
common spelling, and every Postgres deploy replays this one.

Two reads still grew without bound after the snapshot fix.
`Action.variants` holds every discarded retry attempt, but a list response
only needs how many there are — so each retry permanently added ~5 KB to
every later load of that adventure. Defer the column and keep the count
beside it (migration 37, backfilled server-side), with set_variants() as the
one write path that keeps the two in step.
`story_actions()` walked adventure.actions, then every caller threw almost
all of it away: the builder concatenates the story and immediately cuts it
back to the token budget, the NPC check looks at the last 6, retrieval at the
last 4, the cursor clamp only wants a count. A turn on a 200-action adventure
read 839 KB to use ~70 KB, and grew with every turn played. app/context/
history.py serves those shapes from SQL; window_covering() measures the
actions it fetched and projects how many more it needs, fetching only the
part it does not already hold. Memorybank cursors move to position_of_index()
and settled_count()/settled_slice() — same arithmetic, no full list.
The scripting pipeline still receives the whole history per AI Dungeon's API,
and every helper reuses adventure.actions when it is already loaded, so a
scripted adventure pays what it always did and never twice.
Measured at production shape: retry tax 5.1 KB -> 0; turn 200 839 KB -> 129 KB
and flat from ~turn 50; a 200-turn playthrough 84.5 MB -> 23.0 MB; a delete
115 KB -> 5 KB.
Verified the window builds a byte-identical prompt to the full story across
budgets from 1K to 100K tokens, with and without the retry exclusion - this
is a cost change and nothing else. Cursor helpers checked against the old list
arithmetic, including after deleting a middle action. Counts are real
SELECT count(...): Query.count() wraps the entity select in a subquery, so the
SQL named every deferred column and the egress guard could not tell it apart
from a bulk fetch. 139 tests pass; the four new guards verified by sabotage.

The free-tier 5 GB/month network transfer allowance ran out, which blocks
connections outright. The database is only ~55 MB, so 5 GB meant the whole
thing was being pulled roughly 90 times over.
Cause: actions is 39 MB of that 55 MB -- 541 rows at ~74 KB each, almost
entirely context_snapshot, which stores the whole assembled prompt for a
turn. Every adventure load and every turn fetched all of it in order to
read two small things out of it: the world-change chips under an AI
message (Action.world_changes) and the emit block re-attached when
replaying history to the model (_history_text). The Insights viewer is
the only consumer that wants the whole snapshot, and it asks for one
action at a time.
Lifts that slice into its own small actions.world_delta column
(migration 36) and marks context_snapshot, state_before and
world_state_before deferred, so they load only when something touches
the attribute -- Insights, undo and retry, all single-action paths.
The backfill runs server-side, dialect-specific (json_extract on SQLite,
#> on Postgres), because pulling 39 MB of snapshots into Python to
rewrite a slice of each would defeat the purpose.
Measured at production shape (541 actions, 72 KB snapshots), one
adventure load goes from 38.46 MB to 0.20 MB. The traffic that consumed
5 GB would now be about 27 MB.
Deliberately not included: limiting the history query to recent actions,
and removing the redundant db.refresh(adventure) calls. Both were sized
against the old numbers; against a 0.20 MB load they would take ~27 MB a
month down to ~10 MB, which is not worth the complexity.
tests/test_egress.py hooks before_cursor_execute and asserts the emitted
SQL never names the deferred columns during a bulk load, so this cannot
regress silently. 123 tests pass.

Three fallout bugs from keeping the retried action row alive (906ba42),
plus two long-standing cursor bugs the same investigation turned up.
Retry context leak: the row being regenerated is still attached to the
adventure, so it was replayed as established story and the model wrote a
continuation of the attempt it was meant to replace — the story visibly
blended both takes. It leaked into four places, not one: history replay,
story-card trigger matching, in-scene NPC detection, and the memory-bank
similarity query. Adds a shared context.story_actions(exclude_action_id),
threaded through build_context and retrieve_memories.
Memory holdback: a memory could summarize the just-generated turn; retry
rewrites Action.text but memory_cursor has already advanced, so the memory
was never regenerated and went on describing narration no longer in the
story. settled_story_actions() holds the newest action back one turn —
only the last action is retryable, so that makes it unreachable. The
settled list is always a prefix, so cursors stay valid and nothing is
skipped. The run_post_turn clamp deliberately still uses the full count:
clamping to settled rewinds legacy adventures a step and double-covers an
action.
Cursor bookkeeping: memory_cursor is a position into story_actions() while
Memory.source_* are Action.index values, and the two diverge as soon as
anything is deleted. Deleting a middle action slid a never-summarized
action into the covered range, skipping it forever; and pruning a memory
left the actions it covered stranded behind the cursor. Adds
note_action_removed() (called before the delete in delete_action and
undo_turn) and a rewind in prune_dangling_memories. delete_action also
now prunes at all, which it never did.
Not addressed: editing an already-summarized action still leaves its
memory stale, and the cumulative story summary can't have one fact
un-mixed from it.
117 backend tests pass, including new test_memory_settling.py (12) and
two retry-context regression tests.

Retry used to delete the last AI action and generate a replacement, so the
discarded narration was simply gone. The row survives now: each attempt is
appended to actions.variants with variant_index naming the live one, and a
ChatGPT-style pager under the message browses them.
Action.text still mirrors the active variant, so the context builder, memory
bank, summarizer and export needed no changes. A variant carries only what
differs between attempts -- the text, the reasoning, and the state it
produced -- never the assembled prompt, which is identical across attempts of
one turn and is the bulk of context_snapshot.
Only the last message can be switched, restoring the script/world state that
attempt produced; earlier turns were written as a continuation of whatever is
active there, so theirs are read-only previews.
Three things that would otherwise bite:
- generate_turn now wraps _generate_turn and watches for a save sentinel. If
the generator ends without it (provider error, empty reply, script stop,
client hangup) it re-applies the previous variant -- otherwise a failed
retry leaves rolled-back stats under un-rolled-back text.
- Retry reuses the turn's own index rather than next_index, or the clock the
world-state cooldowns run on advances on a re-run of the same turn.
- Editing a message rewrites the active variant too, or paging away and back
silently reverts the edit.
Migrations 34/35 verified as an upgrade against a populated database, not
just a fresh schema. test_state_revert's retry test asserted the old delete
behaviour and was rewritten.

An adventure copies its scenario's plot text and story cards at creation so
later authoring never disturbs a story in progress. This is the explicit
opt-out, alongside the existing per-script "Sync from library".
GET /adventures/{id}/refresh returns a plan (per-field old/new diff, card
add/update/remove, world-state added/removed paths, and any ${...} answers
still needed); POST applies it under the turn lock so it can't race a
generating turn. The Plot panel shows the plan in a confirm modal first.
Overwrites the plot fields and scenario-derived cards. Deliberately left
alone: the opening `start` action (the story is built on it, and it is baked
into memories and the summary), the adventure's own title and summary,
player-authored story cards, and the live value of every stat the schema
still defines.
Two enablers were needed:
- adventures.placeholders (migration 32). ${...} answers were used once at
creation and discarded, so re-copying scenario text would have re-injected
a literal ${Hero}. Adventures predating the column re-prompt once via the
existing modal, then the answers are saved.
- story_cards.source_ref (migration 33), "card:<id>" / "npc:<key>", NULL for
player-authored. Adventure cards had no link back to their source, so a
rename read as delete-plus-add and player cards would have been clobbered.
Legacy cards name-match once, then adopt the ref.
World state goes through a new worldstate.reconcile(): keep values the schema
still defines, add missing ones at their initial, drop removed ones and their
cooldown bookkeeping. Not instantiate(), which would heal the player to full
and wipe their milestones.
The confirm modal is portalled to <body>: .side-panel's panel-in animation
has fill mode `both`, which makes it the containing block for position:fixed
descendants, so an overlay rendered in place was trapped in the 420px panel
and clipped by its overflow.

Rework the home page into a single landing surface and give the app a
consistent visual language, chosen as "illuminated tome" over two other
pitched directions because it builds on the existing Cinzel + gold identity
instead of replacing it.
Home is now Continue (up to 4 in-progress stories, each showing where you
left off) over a scenario shelf, each section with a "See all" link. The
full adventure list moves to /adventures.
Scenario cover art has three tiers, in precedence order: an uploaded picture
(downscaled client-side to 400px WebP before storing), an emoji, or gradient
art generated from a hash of the title so no card is ever an empty box.
Adventures inherit their scenario's art. Images live in the row rather than
on disk because Render's free tier has no persistent volume, and it keeps
export bundles self-contained; list responses carry a cacheable
/api/scenarios/{id}/image URL rather than the base64.
Also: ambient drifting motes behind the app, loading skeletons, staggered
card entrance, ornamental scene breaks and a drop cap in the story, a
"Weaving" thinking indicator, and a toast system replacing every alert().
Two fixes found along the way:
- Importing a scenario bundle with no "tags" key returned a 500. Column
defaults are not applied until flush, so the attribute was still None
when the width clamp sliced it.
- Anything meaning "the story's latest narration" was missing action type
"start", which is the only text a freshly created adventure has, so new
adventures looked empty. Collected as NARRATION_TYPES.
Migrations 30 and 31 add scenarios.image and scenarios.icon; both are
additive with a '' default and were verified against a database stamped at
29. vite.config.js now reads AIDND_API_PORT so the recurring port-8000
clash with another local app needs no file edit.

Players/authors can now directly correct the live values of stats the
schema already defines (health, trust, flags, milestones, etc.) without
waiting for the AI to emit a delta. New apply_override() sets values
absolutely rather than adding deltas, and — unlike the AI-facing
apply_delta() — bypasses cooldown/max_delta_per_turn and lets
milestones be un-set, since this is a deliberate correction rather
than a turn to police. Exposed via PUT /adventures/{id}/world-state

Replace the single shared `npc` stat template (+ npc_card_types) with an
`npcs` section: each NPC keyed by a stable id, carrying its own name,
description, trigger keys, and its OWN stats block. The AI addresses NPCs
as npc.<id>.<stat> (id shown in context), which also fixes the old
card-id-guessing problem. On adventure creation each NPC auto-creates a
story card (name/keys/desc) for lore + in-scene detection, unless a
same-name card already exists. All NPCs instantiate up front.

The shared per-adventure script_state ("scoreboard" scripts write to) was
never reverted by undo, and retry re-ran the output hook on top of the already-
mutated state, double-applying its changes (e.g. "+10 gold" became +20).
Each action now snapshots script_state as it was immediately before its own
hooks ran (new Action.state_before column, migration 25):
- undo restores the turn's first-action snapshot, prunes memories that
summarized the removed actions, and takes the turn lock against races.
- retry restores the AI action's snapshot before regenerating.
Story-card mutations are not reverted (documented limit). Adds the project's
first test suite: unit + full HTTP integration through the real scripting
engine (14 tests). See plan/11-state-revert-and-retry-fix.md.

- AdventureScript.source_script_id links a copy to its library Script

- list endpoint flags out_of_date by diffing copy vs library
- POST /adventures/{id}/scripts/{sid}/sync overwrites the copy's code,

worked locally, but Postgres (Neon) rejects it — the adventures list
endpoint 500'd on the live deploy, so saved adventures could not be
listed or resumed. Add Scenario.title to the GROUP BY.

Config via env, abuse/resource limits, and production serving so the app
is safe to expose publicly:
- Fail-fast on missing SECRET_KEY when MULTI_USER=true
- quickjs per-execution time/memory limits (while(true) can't hang server)
- Per-user/per-IP rate limiting on turn/script/auth endpoints
- Request body size limit + per-user row caps
- Security headers (CSP, X-Frame-Options, nosniff, referrer-policy) incl. SSE
- Debug router 403 and /docs disabled in multi-user mode
- DATABASE_URL support (defaults to Neon Postgres) alongside SQLite
- Documented all env vars in backend/.env.example
Verified locally via uvicorn (MULTI_USER=1, SQLite); see plan/09-phase-hardening.md.

Guest-first multi-user mode behind AIDND_MULTI_USER (local installs
unchanged): signed-cookie guest sessions bootstrapped by /api/auth/me,
register upgrades the guest in place, login/logout, per-IP rate limits.
Every router scoped by user_id; Settings become per-user with the API
key Fernet-encrypted at rest and write-only through the API. Users
without a key get a server-funded demo key (OpenRouter free models,
20 turns/day, memory bank disabled on demo turns). Public read-only
demo scenarios (seed_demo.py); debug log restricted to local mode.
Frontend: auth modal + guest nudge, 401 re-establish/retry, demo
banner and key management in Settings.
Migrations 13-23 adopt existing data under a local user and encrypt
stored keys. Verified: migration on a copy of real data.db, two-session
isolation + register/login via curl and Chrome, demo cap 429, live
OpenRouter turn through the encrypted-key path, vite build + oxlint.
