JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 432f04100b M11 closeout: accept v1 release validation
CI / Backend tests (push) Canceled after 0s
CI / Frontend lint + build (push) Canceled after 0s
CI / Docker image builds (push) Canceled after 0s
The browser, offline and identity runs had last been taken on ef25b0a. The
closeout repeated them on the exact release-candidate tree, 3652dc6, whose
product code is identical to 96c1bf5, where the 100-turn evidence was run. No
product code changed, so the long-run evidence stands.

On 3652dc6:
- backend suite: 1421 passed, 17 skipped, 0 failed
- frontend suite: 161 of 161; lint clean
- production build clean
- docker build --no-cache: image SPA byte-identical to the local build
- browser regression: 38 of 38
- no-network container: 23 of 23
- identity diagnostic: 0 signals; the scripted self-test's detectors fire
- release-shaped smoke test from the image: 14 of 14

- M11 report: new S (exact-tree verification, including the identity
  results the report never carried) and T (acceptance record). Corrections:
  the REQUIRED FOR V1 count is 82, not 85, and L's browser narrator was
  qwen2.5:3b-instruct. P gains risks 16 and 17; risk 6 is widened.
- BUILD-MILESTONES.md: M11 COMPLETE / ACCEPTED, and a post-v1 backlog.
- V1-ACCEPTANCE-TESTS.md: the P release gate's result, and the P3
  disposition's run.
- planning/README.md, VERSION.md (v4.0), README.md: status, map, stop rule.
- tools/m11_browser.py: the G01 import wait could not fail, because the
  scenario's campaign is titled "Hidden Knowledge". It now waits for the
  imported source's row.

Found and carried, not fixed. The identity run stored protocol shapes the
extractor leaves, on 4 of 10 turns at a 4,096 window: event-call syntax and a
parroted length hint. The owner chose residual risk. The state rule's example
is fantasy, and the state lagged the narration. None occurs in the 100-turn
evidence.

No requirement changes. No release tag.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 3652dc6fae Planning v3.9: record M11's long-run evidence, and correct what v3.7 claimed
The planning package still described M01 as outstanding. It now records the
evidence run on 96c1bf5 and the two product defects found on the way. It also
corrects three statements that were never true.

- V1-ACCEPTANCE-TESTS.md: result blocks for M01-M04. M04 is recorded as
  recovered through authoritative state, with the owner's acceptance of that on
  2026-09-13 and the positional precondition explained.
  Correction: v3.7 said this file carried M11 results against every REQUIRED
  test. None were written, and the per-test matrix is the M11 report's §F. The
  §P3 M11 disposition said the report records the identity diagnostic's
  findings. It does not, and the disposition now says so.
- BUILD-MILESTONES.md: the M11 status block records the long-run evidence,
  the write-lock and protocol-leak defects, and what is left for the reviewer.
- DATA-MODEL.md §28B: M11 added two columns, not one.
  settings.context_window_override (migration 94, ef25b0a) was never
  recorded.
- TECHNICAL-DESIGN.md: "Background failure observability" gains the rule
  that nothing in a turn writes before the model call, and new §15.4 records
  that stored narration carries story only, with the extractor's rules.
- CONTEXT-AND-MEMORY.md §51 and ADR 013: as-implemented notes for the same
  two fixes.
- README.md and VERSION.md: status, milestone map, stop rule, and the v3.9
  entry.
- M11 report §Q: the "not revised" note is replaced by what v3.9 revised.

No requirement changes. No code changes.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 d1988065e5 M11 report: M01 to M04 on a complete run, and what it took to get one
The first revision left M01 PARTIAL at 41 accepted turns, and that run was then
lost to a host crash with its evidence. This revision reports the 100-turn
evidence run on 96c1bf5. It had 101 accepted turns, three genuine restarts,
every scheduled history operation, zero failed post-turn passes, and recovery
onto a clean data directory 16 of 16. All 85 REQUIRED FOR V1 tests now pass,
with H09 NOT APPLICABLE on its own condition.

Rewritten: §A, §B, §C, §E.1, §F, §G, §J, §K, §N, §O, §P and §R. The §G.0
addendum is removed, and its history is §G.6.

- §G: the evidence run's timeline, context growth and recall. M04's
  precondition is positional: the planting turn at depth 1, the window floor
  at 54. The path is stated plainly: authoritative state, then the narrator
  restating the fact line in its prose, then memory summarising those
  restatements. The owner accepted state-based recovery on 2026-09-13.
- §G.6: all seven long runs, and why six of them are not the evidence.
- §O.7 and §O.8: the write-lock defect and the protocol-leak defect. Five
  harness defects are added to the harness table.
- §N: storage for the evidence run, and real-token headroom by the narrator's
  own tokenizer: 92, 23, 34 and 42 tokens across four runs, with the
  inference server's silent cut to 8,194 tokens stated.
- §E.1: the application machine, the CPU reference host and the GPU host,
  identical model digests, and the GPU dropping off the PCIe bus (Xid 79)
  about 30 s after the evidence run's last write. That long runs must log
  power, link state and kernel messages is recorded as a requirement.
- §F, §J, §R: A06, H01 and R6 no longer claim that every turn went over HTTPS.
  The GPU runs used plain HTTP to a LAN host and were not network-monitored.
- §B, §P: the black-box runs (browser, offline, identity) were re-run on the
  ef25b0a tree and not after the three later backend commits.
- §C, §K: the later commits, including migration 94 from ef25b0a.
- §D.1, §P: the identity diagnostic's results were never written into this
  report; the section the first revision pointed to was empty.

DEVELOPMENT.md: the pointer to the removed §G.0 is replaced, and a new section,
"Logging the inference host during a long run", gives the nvidia-smi and
journalctl commands to run on a GPU host for every long run. If the GPU drops
again, the logs show whether it was power.

Not revised here: V1-ACCEPTANCE-TESTS.md, BUILD-MILESTONES.md, VERSION.md and
planning/README.md.

On 96c1bf5: backend 1,421 passed, 17 skipped, 0 failed; frontend 161 passed;
lint exit 0 with warnings only. No code changes in this commit.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 96c1bf5ded Measure M04 by where the planted turn is, and catch a section of the model's own
The M04 re-run on 0c7316f ran 101 turns with no failures, and the verdict
still came out `precondition_not_met`. That verdict was wrong. The planted
player turn (depth 1) was 65 actions outside the history window, whose floor
was 66. The sentinel's text was in recent history for two other reasons.

- On 5 turns the narrator wrote a section of its own, `## Established:` over
  indented facts, with the planted clue copied into it from the state section.
  The extractor passed it: it was a single heading, and the `## ` meant it did
  not match. The harness leak count passed it the same way, and read 1 where
  5 turns leaked.
- On 4 turns the narrator used the sentinel as a name inside ordinary
  sentences ("the SILVER-KEY-CRYPT-OLD-ABBEY, flickers with latent power"). That
  is story text and cannot be stripped.

So the sentinel's text in history can never be the precondition. M04's
written pass is "Fact/event remains recoverable without entire transcript in
prompt" (V1-ACCEPTANCE-TESTS.md). The owner agreed on 2026-09-13 that the
precondition is positional, and that recovery through authoritative state
counts; memory is not required.

Extractor:
- A state-section heading is recognised with any markdown the model wrapped
  it in (`## Established:`, `**Held:**`, `> Held:`).
- One heading with an indented entry under it now qualifies as protocol.
  Before, a block needed two headings, or one heading and the scene line. A
  heading followed by unindented prose is still story. The earlier guard test
  "Held:" with an indented line is now protocol, and the case was rewritten
  unindented.

Harness:
- It records `planted_depth` when the clue is planted, and carries it across
  --resume. No endpoint reports an action's depth, but a fresh campaign's path
  is the opening, the planted turn and its reply, so the depth is
  `total_actions - 2`. That was checked against the database in three runs.
- `_recall` reports `planted_depth`, `history_floor_depth` and
  `planted_turn_in_history_window`. The verdict is `precondition_not_met` only
  when the planted turn is still in the window, and `precondition_unknown`
  when its depth was never recorded. `clue_in_recent_history_window` stays as a
  fact about the prompt.
- The protocol-leak count matches a state heading with an indented entry under
  it, in any markdown.

Every AI turn in five real runs was replayed through the new extractor: draco
M01, the two 26-turn GPU trials, the f8d4010 M01 run and the M04 re-run. 443
turns in all. No turn the old extractor had left clean changed, and the M04
re-run lost 7 more leaks. The sentinel-as-a-name turns are story and remain.
Trial 1's model-invented headings remain, as before.

The M04 re-run's own evidence, reclassified under the new precondition from
its database and its recall-turn snapshot, reads
`recovered_through_state_only`. The original recall.json is kept unchanged
beside `recall-reclassified.json`.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 0c7316f951 Keep the state section and its proposal out of the story
The first complete M01 run with the memory bank on (f8d4010, 101 turns on
a GPU host) reported "complete". It still did not prove M04. The planted
clue was found at turn 100 only because the narrator had pasted the
narrative-state section into its own prose, and the paste was still in
recent history. No memory and no summary carried the clue.

The narrator is a small local model. It wrote protocol into its stored
narration on 42 of 104 turns, starting at depth 2, in four shapes:

- a copy of the state section: `Scene:`, `Who and what exists:`, `Held:`,
  `Established:`, `Still open:`
- that copy above a correct ```state block, which was stripped while the
  copy stayed
- the copy, then a bare `State` heading, then a `> {"events": ...}`
  proposal quoted like a player turn, sometimes with story after it
- the same block cut off by the output-token limit, on 10 turns

Stored text is replayed verbatim as history, so each leak also put a second,
older account of the state into the next prompt. That is what M5 review
Finding 4 removed from history replay, and every leak gave the model another
example to copy.

The extractor now removes:

- a pasted state section, recognised by at least two of the renderer's own
  headings as whole lines. The headings are constants in `render.py`, so the
  renderer and the extractor cannot drift apart. One heading alone, or a
  `Scene:` line of prose, is left.
- an unfenced proposal that starts a line, quoted or not, when it parses and
  is a proposal. With no fence it becomes the turn's proposal. A `State`
  heading directly above goes with it. Candidates are taken outermost first,
  so a finished event line inside an unfinished block is never taken as a
  proposal by itself.
- an unfinished unfenced proposal at the end that reads as protocol.
- whatever is left at the end: a `State` heading, a bare `>`, a parroted
  reminder or continue hint (closed or not), and a ```json fence cut off
  before it names its events. These are cut repeatedly until nothing more
  comes off.

This also fixes an older bug. `_STATE_FENCE_RE` read "a ```state block"
inside a parroted reminder as a fence opening and cut out the middle of the
reminder. The label must now end its line or run straight into the payload.

A reply whose only removal is a pasted state section records no raw block,
so the turn is not marked unparseable for a block it never started.

Every AI turn in four real runs was replayed through the new extractor:
draco M01, the two 26-turn GPU trials, and this M01 run. 339 turns in all.
No turn the old extractor had left clean changed. Every leak of our own
protocol is gone: 42 of 42 in this M01 run, 5 in trial 2, 3 on draco.
Trial 1 still has model-invented headings ("Identifiers established:",
"Set of events made true:") on 10 turns. They paraphrase the instruction and
are not our renderer's text, so they are left, not guessed at.

The long-run harness now records an explicit M04 verdict, which is never a
recovery while the clue is still in recent history. It also counts the AI
turns in the export that still carry protocol.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 f8d401029f Stop a turn locking out its own memory bank, and let the long run notice
The first M01 trial with the memory bank on was 26 turns on a GPU host. It
accepted every turn and reported "complete". It also wrote two memories and
no summary, and logged 180 `database is locked` errors, while derived status
still read `idle`.

The cause was a single uncommitted UPDATE. Retrieval bumped each used
memory's counter before the model call, and the turn commits only after the
reply has streamed. SQLite has one writer, so the turn held the write lock for
the whole reply. Every post-turn memory, summary and status write in that
window waited out the five-second timeout and failed. Recording the failure
needed a write as well, and without a rollback first it raised
PendingRollbackError. The loss therefore reached the log and never reached
the status the Insights panel reads, which F08 forbids. The draco run never
hit this because the bank was off there.

- `retrieve_memories` now only reads. `record_use` writes the counters in the
  turn's single commit, so a turn that never lands counts nothing.
- The post-turn task's outer handler rolls back before it records a failure.

The harness could not have caught any of this. It read three prompt sections
under names the builder does not use: `memories` (really `used_memories`),
`story_history` (really `history`/`recent_history`), and a `knowledge` prefix
that matched the fixed instruction section instead of the imported passages.
Memory tokens read 0 whatever the prompt held, and the in-history and
in-memories recall checks could never come out true. The labels are now
constants, pinned by a test against a prompt the real builder assembled.

The harness also stops at the first sign of failed post-turn work. It checks
/derived and new server.log lines after every turn, keeps its log position
across --resume, and waits for background work to settle before its final
checks. A run with no memories or no summaries now ends "failed", not
"complete".

Both new application tests fail on fec46f6: the lock probe sees
`database is locked`, and memory status stays `idle`. The full backend suite
passes (1392 passed, 17 skipped). A 26-turn re-run against the same host had
0 lock errors, wrote 7 memories and 2 summaries, and used them in the prompt
from turn 8.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 fec46f66bb Turn the memory bank on for the long run, and refuse one that cannot use it
The first complete hundred-turn campaign did not exercise M01's
"summary/memory activation" step. Memory bank and auto-summarize are
per-campaign switches that default to off, and m11_long_run never
turned them on: summary_tokens and memory_tokens were 0 on every turn,
memories_used was empty, and M04's clue was recalled through narrative
state alone. The retrieval path M6 built was never asked, and nothing
in the evidence said so except a row of zeros.

setup now PATCHes both switches on, reads the campaign back, and stops
before the first turn if either did not take. memories_in_bank is
recorded on every turn, in the final summary and in the recall, and the
recall also says whether a summary exists, so which of the two recall
paths succeeded is stated rather than implied.

The embedding model is now required. Without one the summary pass still
writes memories, but memorybank.retrieve answers "No embedding model
configured" and returns none -- the same unexercised path in a fuller
bank. The harness refuses before it starts a server or claims --out.

tests/test_m11_long_run_memory.py drives setup against the real
application in-process: the switches are on afterwards, a server that
ignores the PATCH is refused before any state is written, the bank
count comes from the application and reads -1 rather than raising when
it cannot, and a run with no embedding model is refused. The four that
exercise setup and the bank count were run against the previous
harness and fail there; the premise test (a fresh campaign has both
switches off) passes on both, as it should.

The 2026-09-10 run in ~/m11-evidence/m01 therefore does not count as
M01. It has to be run again on this harness.

Backend 1,382 passed, 18 skipped, 0 failed. The eighteenth skip is
test_built_spa_fetches_no_fonts_remotely, which wants a built
frontend/dist this worktree does not have; it is an environment
condition, not a change here. The frontend is untouched.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 ef25b0a876 Stop re-reading the whole prompt every turn, and let a lost run carry on
M01, the hundred-turn campaign, is the one REQUIRED test still
outstanding. Everything here is about it finishing, and being worth
believing when it does. No requirement changed, no acceptance test was
retired or relaxed, and M11 §P.1's "no performance requirement" still
stands: what changed is the cost of a turn, not what a turn contains.

An inference server caches a prompt by its prefix. The history window
gave up its oldest action every turn, which changed the prompt near the
front and threw that cache away, so nearly the whole prompt was
reprocessed every turn however little had actually changed. The window
now snaps the oldest depth to a block and holds it, stepping every few
turns. Measured on real builder output at an 8,192-token budget: 124.0s
per turn against 362.4s. The cost is history depth, bounded by
TRIM_FRACTION at a quarter of the window, which is the dial between
recent history and speed.

A run that dies no longer starts again from turn one. m11_long_run
checkpoints resume.json after the prologue, after every scheduled step
and after every turn, and --resume reattaches to the same campaign. A
finished run deletes it, so the file's presence means an unfinished run
and starting fresh over one is refused. The model timeout is an option
rather than a hard-coded 600s, a turn that overruns is a failed turn
instead of an unhandled exception that ends the run with no summary,
and a run that has stopped producing turns writes its evidence and
stops.

Two checks could not fail. M04's planted clue went into an add_fact
"detail" key that the event does not define, so it was dropped and
fact_still_in_state could never be true; it is now in "value" and
proved at turn one, which stops a run measuring nothing for hours.
m11_browser degraded silently without a narrator into two failures that
read exactly like a product regression, and now requires one, with
--no-narrator as an explicit opt-out that marks the run partial.

Window discovery speaks Ollama's native API, so against vLLM or
llama.cpp's own server the window goes unverified and the budget
uncapped -- M11's own failure mode reached by another route.
context_window_override lets the operator state what they launched the
server with, and is used only where discovery left a hole: a verified
window always wins, so a declaration can lower an unknown ceiling into
existence and never raise a known one. "verified" still means the
server answered, so window_verified in a turn's provenance keeps the
meaning M11's report counts on.

planning/README.md said the M11 tree was staged rather than committed,
in two places; it was committed and signed. Planning package v3.8.

Backend 1,376 passed, 17 skipped, 0 failed; frontend 161; lint and
build clean. Every M11 harness re-run on this tree: browser 38/0/0,
offline 23/0, identity clean, contrast unchanged, recovery 14/0 on a
small bundle. M01 itself has not been run.

The M11 harness examples wrote to /tmp, which a reboot clears. One
100-turn campaign was lost that way at 97 turns. The examples now
write under $HOME, which is also the only place the browser harness
works. G.0 records what the run reached, that its evidence is gone,
and that M01 must be re-run before acceptance.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 144406cd48 M11: what the server will actually read
The release-validation milestone, and the thing it had to settle first was
whether any of the earlier evidence meant what it said. M8 measured a deployment
enforcing a 4,096-token input window while the application budgeted 16,384.
Every request returned 200. What Ollama does with the excess is drop the oldest
tokens, and the oldest tokens here are the system block — the narrator's rules
and the campaign canon. A hundred-turn certification against that server would
have looked perfect and proved nothing, which is why this milestone could not
begin with a hundred turns.

So the application asks now. Ollama's window is a property of how a model was
loaded rather than of the request — sending num_ctx is accepted, ignored, and
worse, reloads the model at the server's own default — so the only honest move
is to find out and then tell the truth about it. /api/ps reports what a resident
model is being served with, /api/show what an unloaded one will load with, both
on the same host inference already uses, through the same endpoint policy and
the same TLS trust store. A verified window is a ceiling on the budget; an
unverified one leaves the budget alone and is recorded as unverified in the
turn's own provenance, so an old turn can be asked afterwards whether it was
built against a checked window. There is no third behaviour, and in particular
no hard-coded 4,096: a number the server did not say would be right on one
machine and wrong on the next.

The proof that this is doing something is a campaign whose canon sits at the
front of the prompt, 120 turns of history, and a 4,096-token window. The canon
is still there afterwards and the oldest history is gone. The same campaign
built the old way produces a prompt more than twice the window — the defect,
reproduced, so the fix is measured against it rather than asserted.

Two defects the validation found on its own, and they are the same defect twice:
something was true and nobody was told. A manual state correction of four
changes with one bad reference applied three, returned 201, and said nothing —
while recording the refusal on the audit row nobody reads. It came to light
because the identity diagnostic's own fixture was refused that way and the whole
run proceeded on a campaign with no scene, which would have read as a model
failure. And the narration-length setting moved no number: brief, medium and
long each became one English sentence, while the numeric hint the model actually
reads was derived from the global reply cap and said the same thing for all
three. Both now say what they did.

The other two post-M8 findings are closed as well. The tab said AI D&D, which no
document had ever claimed it did not; it says Interactive Story now, with the
open campaign first, and the name is the owner's decision rather than a
find-and-replace to something narrower than the engine. After an Undo the reader
could not tell where they had landed; the control row now ends with
"Moment 11 · later story ahead", from the server's own answer, in the word the
transcript already uses, with none of head, branch or depth anywhere near it.

The identity diagnostic exists and the root cause does not. That campaign was
destroyed, so no cause can be established — what M11 owes the finding is
something that can classify the next occurrence, and a diagnostic that makes only
the judgements a program can honestly make: duplicate keys, shared names,
protagonist drift, state and context disagreeing. Whether prose misattributed a
line is left to a person reading it beside its prompt, because a regex cannot
read dialogue and one that pretended to would produce exactly the confident wrong
answer this finding is about. Its detectors are proved to fire against a planted
second Alice.

Two entities may still share a display name. That was checked first, as the
finding asked, and left permitted: a mother and a daughter, or a stranger giving
a false name, are ordinary fiction, and refusing them to guard against a model
mistake would refuse the wrong thing. What was missing was that it happened
silently. It is reported now.

Evidence, not inference: a hundred accepted turns against a real narrator with
genuine process restarts; a real browser against the built SPA; a container with
no network at all; a campaign moved into a data directory that never existed.
Each was discarded and re-run whenever the product changed under it, and the runs
that were thrown away are listed in the report with the reason, along with ten
defects in the harnesses themselves — because a harness that has only ever
agreed with itself is not evidence, and two of M8's five harness defects were
masking real ones.

No dependency was added, removed or upgraded. No acceptance test was retired,
relaxed or reclassified. M11 is implemented and verified; it is not accepted, and
there is no release tag.

CI / Backend tests (push) Canceled after 0s
CI / Frontend lint + build (push) Canceled after 0s
CI / Docker image builds (push) Canceled after 0s
The media extension contract asks for a scene snapshot a future image or video
provider could be handed: location, who is present, what they hold, what must
stay true, and where in the story it sits. Building one was the milestone's
obvious first task, and it was the wrong one. That snapshot has existed since
M5. `narrative_state["scene"]` holds the summary, the location, the cast and the
coordinate it was written at; a validated `set_scene` event writes it, every
position snapshots it, and every head move restores it. It survives Undo, Redo,
Retry, divergence, Save Point restore and a process restart because it is the
authoritative state rather than a copy of it.

So there is no scenes table here. A second scene store would have been a second
answer to "where is the story now", with its own lineage rules to get wrong —
and the lineage rules are the expensive part, which is the argument for reusing
the ones that already work rather than against it. The Scene Packet is derived
on read, and its identity is computed from the campaign and the position rather
than allocated: the same position yields the same id in another process, after a
restart, and after the packet is thrown away and rebuilt, with no row to keep in
step. That is the part of a future media_assets table that would be expensive to
retrofit, so it is fixed now even though the table is not built.

One table, then: visual_profiles, the only thing the contract's scene list asks
for that nothing already stored. Campaign-scoped and not per-position, because a
character does not change appearance when the story forks — a reader who
diverged would otherwise lose their cast, and the same descriptors would land in
every per-position snapshot, measured at 245 copies of 367 bytes in a 120-turn
campaign to say something that never varies. Keyed by the M5 entity key rather
than a new identity namespace, and one table for characters, locations and items
alike, because a location is an entity with a type and splitting them would
reintroduce the genre shape M5 spent a milestone removing.

What the packet leaves out is the more interesting half. Not the transcript, and
not imported knowledge — none of it, not merely the sources marked hidden. The
rule is what the story established at this position, not everything the narrator
was told, and drawing it by class is what makes it hold for a secret nobody
thought to mark. A hidden Canon source proves it, with a positive control
showing the narrator did receive the sentinel the packet does not carry. Once a
validated event puts the observer in the room, the observer is in the packet:
that is no longer narrator-only knowledge, and a packet that hid it would be
hiding the story from itself.

The providers are contracts and nothing else. Protocols for image, video, audio,
speech and transcription, an empty registry, no adapter, no dependency, no
socket, and no media setting to point anywhere — a setting that exists can be
pointed at a cloud by mistake. A future provider endpoint must be loopback,
stricter than narration's trusted-LAN allowance, because a picture of a scene
carries the scene with it. Transcription returns an editable draft with no
commit method, so STT structurally cannot bypass the authoritative path.

Nothing here can write the story. Not by convention: no module under media/
imports the code that writes state, no media event type exists in the state
vocabulary, and every test in the authority suite compares the authoritative
document byte for byte either side of a media operation — including one where a
provider insists Alice is in a red coat in a corridor, and the campaign goes on
disagreeing.

One defect, found by the milestone's own tests. M10 first added a migration
creating an index that create_all already builds from the column, so an upgraded
database ended up with two indexes and a fresh install with one. Comparing the
two schemas is what caught it; neither database examined alone would have. The
migration is gone rather than renamed, and the right number of migrations for a
new table whose indexes are declared on its columns is zero.

Backend 1,191 passed / 14 skipped / 0 failed, 89 of them M10's. Frontend 145
passed. Lint, production build and Docker build clean. No frontend file changed:
M10 adds no reader-facing surface, and ordinary play — turns, state, memory,
knowledge, Undo, Redo, Retry, Save Point restore, restart — runs with no media
configuration, no warning, no connection attempt and no media row written.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 44edece67e M9: a campaign you can actually get back
A campaign could already be exported and imported. What could not survive the
trip was everything that explains it: the state events behind the authoritative
document, the prompt each turn was actually given, the passages it was shown,
the summaries that carry long-story continuity, and which take belonged to which
turn. An imported campaign could be read and could no longer say why it was what
it was — and a manual correction, the one state change no narration explains,
was indistinguishable from something the story had established.

The bundle is now `ai-dnd-adventure-v3`, and the version is the design rather
than a side effect. Everything added here could have been another optional key,
the way persona, Save Points, narrative state and imported knowledge each were.
That mechanism stops working at exactly this addition: a v2 file with no prompt
provenance is ambiguous between "written before M9" and "written by M9 from a
campaign that has none", and those are different facts about a campaign. A
version number is how a recovery file states what it was capable of recording.
v1 and v2 still import, and every seam from pre-active-head onward is tested for
the rule that an older file is never reinterpreted under a newer assumption.

Two categories became three. "Chosen travels, derived is recomputed" was enough
until stored prompts had to be decided: they are derived, and they must travel
anyway. The test that separates evidence from cache is not "could this be
recomputed" but "would a recomputation answer the same question" — a rebuilt
search index answers the same question, a rebuilt prompt says what the turn
would be told *now*, which is the opposite of what the inspector is for.

Also here: a real SQLite backup, through the online backup API rather than a
file copy, taken while the application is running and verified before it is
kept; story cards settled as compatibility-only legacy data and taken out of the
narrator's prompt, because they were the untracked path around knowledge
authority that IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN §73 already forbade; and no schema
change at all, proved against a database M8's own code wrote.

Three defects, found by running the milestone's own tests rather than by reading
them. Deleting a campaign leaked its FTS index rows, and SQLite then handed the
freed ids to the next source imported into any campaign, which failed with an
integrity error that Reindex could not repair — both ends are closed, and a
database already carrying the damage now repairs itself. An imported node with
no state snapshot was being stamped with the campaign's head state, so an Undo
to turn 2 showed what the story knew at turn 20. And the snapshot relink did not
persist at all, because it mutated a dict in place on a column SQLAlchemy tracks
by assignment: it looked correct in memory and wrote the wrong ids to disk.

Carrying per-turn prompts looked like it would halve the length of campaign that
can be restored. Measured — and after compressing them inside the file —
everything M9 added costs 12% of it: the import ceiling moves from about 318
turns to about 279, against a 100-turn certification target. The dominant cost
is not M9's at all. The per-position narrative state document is 74% of a
bundle, and v2 already carried it.

Backend 1,102 passed / 14 skipped / 0 failed. Frontend 145 passed. Lint,
production build and Docker build clean. Verified across two server processes
with two data directories, and in a real browser against a real narrator.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 1ce9972760 M8: the browser becomes the storyteller
The interface was AI-DnD's with this product's features bolted into it. The
navigation read Home · Adventures · Scenarios · Settings · AI Chat; starting a
story meant first picking a *world*, and making a world meant a JSON stat-schema
form, a story-card table and an art picker. The play screen had a Branches tab.
The input had three modes. Sixteen of the sixteen controls on a two-turn story
had no accessible name — they were single glyphs with a tooltip.

All of that was measured in a real browser before anything was changed, and the
measurements are in planning/reports/M8-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md §C. Almost
nothing underneath was wrong: the play loop, the history controls, the takes,
the Save Points, the state correction and the knowledge library all worked. What
was wrong was what a reader was asked to understand in order to use them.

So the shape now is one entry point and one screen:

  Campaigns -> Campaign -> Story
                           State · Knowledge · Context · Save Points · Settings

Everything that is not the story lives in a panel that starts closed. The
top navigation bar is hidden on the story screen entirely, because on that one
screen the story is the interface.

Play is one natural-language field. An action and a piece of quoted dialogue are
both just what the reader wrote, and B01/B02 confirmed against a real narrator
that the model reads the quotes without being told which kind of turn it is.
What survives from the old Story mode is a Story direction toggle, which is not
a fourth mode: it changes who is being spoken to, not what kind of action is
taken, and the box is visibly marked while it is on.

Branch, fork, node, merge and head appear nowhere a reader can see them. The
branch panel and the tree overlay are gone from the browser. The mechanism is
untouched — takes, divergence, retained futures and Save Points all still work,
and their endpoints are still tested. This is a decision about what a reader is
asked to understand, not a reduction of what the product can do.

The two defects worth the space:

A player action is stored with AI Dungeon's "> You " prefix. That was right when
the Do mode asked for a bare verb phrase. With one field the spec tells the
reader to write "I enter the tavern", and the result was "> You I enter the
tavern." — in the transcript, in the replayed history, and therefore in the
narration, where a small model imitates it and writes "You I thank her". M8's
own design surfaced it, so M8 fixed it: the prefix is added only when the reader
has not already written a subject. The ">" marker, which is what actually
identifies a player turn in the prompt, is unchanged in every case.

And a stale `.input-bar { display: flex }` in play.css overrode the new
composer, because that sheet is imported after the new one. The direction row
and the input row laid out side by side and the box was unusably narrow. Found
by opening the product in a browser, not by reading the CSS — which is the
argument for having done that first.

Failures now have the taxonomy the spec asked for rather than one toast: model,
generation, state, knowledge, server, each with the thing to do about it. A
failed turn leaves the reader's words in the box and says so. The classification
reads backend strings, so it is a fallback ladder rather than a lookup — an
unrecognised message still classifies, still shows the server's own words and
still offers Retry.

`Settings.model` could be empty with nothing saying so until the first turn
failed with a provider error. The header now reports Ollama in five states, and
an unconfigured or missing model offers the models actually installed on the
endpoint, from the connection test that already knew them. Nothing is chosen
automatically: an endpoint's first model may be an embedding model, which cannot
narrate at all.

Narrator prose is rendered as safe Markdown — headings, emphasis, lists,
blockquotes, code. The safety is structural rather than filtered: every node is
a React element built from parsed text, and there is no dangerouslySetInnerHTML
in the file. A sanitizer is not needed to make markup safe if markup is never
produced from input. Link schemes are checked with the URL parser rather than a
pattern, because the bypasses are all in the parsing. A remote image is a
placeholder naming the blocked address; the knowledge and context panels
deliberately do not use this renderer at all, because they exist to show a
reader exactly what is in their file.

Backend, and only what the browser could not otherwise reach:

  AdventureCreate.opening   a start action could only come from a Scenario, so
                            every campaign made in the new setup flow opened on
                            a blank page. Same node, same code path.
  canon_rules               campaign_canon has been the highest authority in a
                            campaign since M5, read by the prompt builder and
                            the state validator, and had no API at all — a
                            fixture had to write it with SQL.
  a 401 and a 429 message   the last user-facing text describing a hosted
                            deployment. One told the reader to check an API key
                            that has not existed since M2.

No schema change and no migration: proved by building a database with a server
running the M7 commit's own code and opening it with this one.

The project had no frontend tests. It has 132 now, across ten files, running
in about six seconds — the enabled state of every history control, the take
selector, the confirmations, the panels, the five model states, the failure
taxonomy, the focus trap, accessibility, and that the reserved dictation control
never touches the microphone. Writing them found a real defect: the focus trap
filtered candidates with offsetParent, which is null inside the fixed-position
ancestor the dialog has and which jsdom never computes — it would have behaved
differently in the tests from the browser.

They do not replace the real-browser runs, and both kinds of evidence are in the
report. The browser suites drive the production build served by the real backend
with a real local narrator, including a genuine process restart.

A verification pass over all of it then found three more, each by driving the
product rather than reading it:

Stepping between alternate takes did nothing. The pager asked whether a take
lived on another line by comparing `target.branch_id !== action.branch_id`, and
`ActionOut` has never carried `branch_id` — so the comparison was permanently
`number !== undefined`, always true, and every step took the branch-switch path.
For two takes of an ordinary retry, which share a line until one is written
below, that meant switching to the line already being read: the same window came
back and nothing moved. D07 is a required v1 acceptance test. The fix needed no
new field — the variants list already carries every attempt's branch and marks
the live one.

The first regression test for that passed against the broken code, because its
fixture gave the action a `branch_id` the real payload never sends. That is the
exact failure M7's review was about, so the fixture was corrected, the tests were
re-run against the reverted code and failed for the right reason, and the
fixture now carries a docstring saying why the field must never come back.

And the knowledge panel pointed readers at an "embedding model" while the
setting is called "Model for meaning-based search" — a reader sent looking for a
field that does not exist by that name.

Campaign canon was measured rather than assumed. Editing it after play is a
configuration change: every turn already played keeps the canon it was actually
given, in its own context snapshot, and the accepted story, the state document
and the state audit log are byte-identical across an edit. It is not routed
through M5's state audit, because canon is not narrative state and doing so
would create the second representation the spec forbids. What the editor does
now is say so, once a campaign has moments.

`BROWSER-UX-SPEC.md` §38 asked for a "Show Hidden Story State" toggle. There is
no hidden story state — a secret lives in a narrator-only knowledge source and
never enters the state document. The section is rewritten to require what it
actually meant: ordinary surfaces must not carry narrator-only information,
advanced inspection must withhold it by default behind an explicit warned
choice, and no second store may be invented to give a toggle something to
reveal. The protection is stricter than before, not weaker.

Closeout. An independent review returned M8 IMPLEMENTATION: PASS subject to
evidence and documentation cleanup, and this commit carries that cleanup:

The report named two frontend bundles as the artifact behind its acceptance
evidence. The saved run logs settle it. index-Ii-lARp9.js, built at 18:53:02
from this tree, is the one final frozen artifact behind all 157 browser checks;
index-C6E5Uvtu.js is superseded — it predates the D09 fix and its acceptance
suite ended 54/55 on exactly that defect. No tracked file under backend/app or
frontend/src has a modification time after the freeze, so the whole final
campaign describes one build. §P sets the two side by side.

Finding 14 — the app budgets 16,384 prompt tokens while an Ollama that sees no
VRAM enforces 4,096 — is resolved operationally, with no application change.
The OpenAI-compatible endpoint this app speaks accepts num_ctx and ignores it,
and reloads the model at its own default, so a native call cannot prime it
either. A model derived with POST /api/create carries the parameter, is honoured
through the app's own OpenAI-compatible path, and appears in /v1/models — which
is the listing the Settings model picker already reads. Measured end to end.
The procedure is in DEVELOPMENT.md; nothing in the repository depends on any
particular derived model existing. Adding provider code to work around this was
declined deliberately: it would mean either a second native request path,
against ADR 011, or a parameter the endpoint provably ignores.

The §38 rewrite is ratified as a requirement clarification aligned with the
implemented architecture, and the spec gains the clause finding 3 was really
about: withheld material must be absent from the rendered DOM, not merely
collapsed in it.

The report's §U carries the M9 handoff — what a portable campaign has to include,
whether historical context snapshots belong in the bundle, what happens to
inherited story cards, and that a restored campaign may meet a different context
window than the one that wrote it. None of it is implemented here.

Final: backend 950 passed / 14 skipped; frontend 132 passed; lint, production
build and Docker build clean; 157 browser checks across six suites, zero
failures. M8 is implemented, verified, reviewed and accepted (2026-09-06).
M9 has not been started.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 480414efe0 M7: a first-class imported knowledge library
A campaign can import local .txt and .md files as Canon, Reference or
Inspiration, and the class is load-bearing rather than a label: it decides the
words a passage is framed with in the prompt, the weight it carries when
passages are ranked, and which budget it competes in when the context is tight.

This is a separate subsystem, which is the Phase 0B decision
(IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md §73). Story Cards do not carry classification,
provenance, content identity, chunking, an index or a lifecycle, and they were
not promoted into something that does. Nothing here reads or writes one.

The subsystem, in backend/app/knowledge/:

  classes      the three classes, their weights, and the prompt framing
  chunking     deterministic, heading-aware, 60-800 tokens, no overlap
  fts          SQLite FTS5 with porter stemming; scoped and bounded in SQL
  importer     validate, hash, store, chunk, index — in one transaction
  embeddings   local Ollama vectors through the shared provider
  retrieval    query construction, hybrid merge, rerank
  inject       the budgeted cut and the rendered prompt sections

Relevance admission is a separate stage from ranking, and that separation is
the milestone's most expensive lesson. An independent review found the first
implementation deciding relevance with a floor expressed as a share of the best
candidate — which the best clears by construction — so a passage was admitted on
every turn regardless of the scene. A query about tide tables and container
tonnage retrieved all five sources of a fantasy campaign, narrator-only hidden
Canon among them.

So the pipeline is now:

  candidate generation -> admission -> ranking -> class weighting -> budget

Admission reads raw, candidate-set-independent signals: the cosine the model
returned, and how many distinct meaningful query terms a passage contains.
Ranking reads normalized ones, because bm25 has no fixed range and cosine's zero
is not zero. Normalization decides order among things that matched; it can never
decide whether anything matched. Authority is applied after admission, so a
class orders what matched and never rescues what did not.

Retrieval may therefore return nothing, and on a scene unrelated to the library
it does.

The other decisions that each replaced an obvious wrong one:

- The class multiplies relevance rather than adding to it. An additive bonus
  satisfies "Canon outranks Reference" and makes "do not include irrelevant
  Canon" impossible, because a large enough constant wins on its own.
- The semantic floor is measured, not guessed: 113 production-path pairs against
  nomic-embed-text put targeted matches at 0.55-0.85 and off-topic pairs at
  0.36-0.56, and 0.58 sits between them. Because it is a property of that model
  and not of cosine similarity, it is keyed to the model rather than applied to
  whatever is configured: an embedding model with no measured calibration in
  this build does not borrow the number. Semantic admission is skipped, the
  campaign retrieves lexically, and the reason is stated in the knowledge status
  and in the turn's provenance. Degrading to lexical keeps the library usable;
  lending the threshold to an unmeasured model is how the admitted-everything
  defect would return.
- One lexical term is not evidence. Two distinct meaningful terms, or one that
  is neither a standing campaign entity nor a negligible share of the query.
  The stop list grew from 42 words to 261, all function words — no subject
  matter, because a stop list that removes subject matter stops finding "The
  Silver Key".
- Lexical retrieval is a production path, not a fallback. It finds the proper
  nouns and invented terms a setting bible is made of, and the library is fully
  usable with no embedding model configured.

Safety is structural rather than filtered. Imported text reaches the prompt
whole, inside a section that says what it is, under a rule stating the authority
order in words and refusing every instruction inside it. No endpoint accepts a
filesystem path, so H08 has no mechanism to escape from. Nothing renders
imported content as HTML, so a script tag is five visible characters and a
remote image is never fetched. Import, chunking, indexing, retrieval and a turn
open no socket at all; only embeddings do, through the endpoint allowlist the
memory bank already uses.

Provenance is the rendered text, not a foreign key: deleting a source cannot
turn a historical turn's evidence into dangling ids.

Schema: knowledge_sources, knowledge_chunks, knowledge_embeddings, and an FTS5
virtual table attached to knowledge_chunks as a DDL hook so it is created and
dropped with the table it indexes. Migration 92. A pre-M7 database opens
unchanged and needs no sources to play.

Bundle: the source content and the reader's judgements about it travel; the
passages, index rows and vectors are rebuilt on import, so a restored campaign
is searchable immediately without a reindex step.

One runtime dependency: python-multipart, Starlette's multipart parser. It is
what makes the upload surface possible, and the upload surface is why no
pathname is ever accepted.

The test doubles were the reason the defect shipped, so they were corrected too.
The retrieval stub scored unrelated text at 0.06-0.20 where the real model
scores it at 0.43-0.44, and its docstring said it had deliberately removed the
constant component that "would put a similarity floor under every pair" — which
is exactly the property real models have. The stub now has that floor, one test
fails if it is ever removed, and another reproduces the superseded rule and
asserts it is still fooled by the same fixture. Run against the pre-corrective
implementation, the new suite fails 13 of 18.

Tests: 939 passed, 14 skipped (836/7 at M6). 110 new across seven files, one of
which mocks nothing between itself and Ollama and re-measures the similarity
separation on every run. 43/43 checks in a real Firefox, reproduced.
Docker build clean.

Four other defects found by review or by the browser run were fixed here rather
than carried: an unreachable relevance constant that appeared to enforce
something and did not; acceptance tests using the wrong fixture files, so G07's
trap was never exercised; a bidirectional override surviving into displayed
filenames; and, from the implementation pass, the Insights panel showing M5's
two state sections as raw keys and the source inspector refetching on every
keystroke.

M7 was independently reviewed, which returned PASS WITH CORRECTIVE WORK
REQUIRED. Both blocking findings are closed, and closeout resolved the
embedding-model calibration boundary the corrective pass had left as debt.
planning/reports/M7-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md carries the review, the corrective
closeout and the closeout verification in sequence, none overwriting another.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 a6e9c7a32b M6: branch-safe context, summaries and long-term story memory
Aligns the inherited AI-DnD memory and context foundation with the history,
authority and state model M3-M5 established. Long stories now reach the narrator
through a bounded, lineage-safe, inspectable context rather than a growing
transcript.

This commit includes the corrective work that followed the independent review in
planning/reports/M6-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md. The first implementation reported
E03 as passing and it was not; the report records that history rather than
hiding it.

What was already correct, and was kept rather than rebuilt

  Memory lineage. Memories already carried (branch_id, depth) and retrieval
  already filtered through the capped-path clause; the ten-step negative control
  was measured passing against b7005e6 before any change here. M6 adds the
  regression tests that pin it, plus provenance and authority on the result.

Summary lineage — both halves

  A summary is a row carrying the coordinate of the last node it covers, and
  eligibility is the same head-capped lineage clause memories use. That alone
  was not enough: generation was seeded from adventures.story_summary, a
  campaign-global column with no lineage, so after a divergence the summariser
  was handed the abandoned line's prose and asked to update it. The row it
  produced was correctly anchored and therefore looked safe while its sentences
  described a story the reader had left.

  Generation is now seeded from summaries.current — the same question the
  context builder asks — so the input and the output are scoped by one rule.
  adventures.story_summary remains a reader-facing mirror for the Plot panel and
  the export bundle, kept in step when a summary is written and when the head
  moves, and nothing authoritative reads it.

Retrieval redundancy

  With a real embedding model, four near-identical memories crowded out the one
  distinctive clue, which survived only because the default memory_top_k is 5.
  Retrieval now drops a candidate that repeats one already chosen, never across
  authority classes, at a threshold measured against the configured embedding
  model. The clue is retrieved at top_k 5, 4 and 3. Ranking itself is unchanged;
  the further factors CONTEXT-AND-MEMORY §20 contemplates remain unimplemented
  and are recorded as such.

Memory authority, budgeting, observability

  Memory.authority is accepted_story or heuristic, classified by the application
  and marked in the prompt; retrieval never writes state. The reply is reserved
  out of the context budget, and an impossible configuration fails clearly
  instead of overflowing. Each derived pass records ok/idle/failed per campaign,
  served by GET /adventures/{id}/derived and shown in Insights, so the M2
  failure — a dead memory bank with a green suite — is visible if it recurs.
  Provider-wiring tests mock no factory.

Also: two pre-existing test-suite leaks fixed; two fixtures that stored one
vector in every memory now use distinct ones, so lineage assertions stay
readable alongside redundancy suppression.

Planning: CONTEXT-AND-MEMORY, TECHNICAL-DESIGN, DATA-MODEL, V1-ACCEPTANCE-TESTS,
BUILD-MILESTONES, VERSION and planning/README updated to describe what exists,
including that a valid E03 test must regenerate a summary after diverging. The
M5 report was rotated to planning/archive/milestone-reports/. No new ADR — every
choice implements a decision the package had already settled.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 b7005e6fdd M5: genre-neutral authoritative narrative state, with review corrections
Replaces AI-DnD's RPG relative-delta world state with the genre-neutral typed
narrative state of ADR 010: explicit, absolute, allowlisted events proposed by
the model, validated by the application, applied to one authoritative document,
and snapshotted per position so restore stays a row read.

This commit includes the corrective pass that followed the independent review
in planning/reports/M5-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md. The invariant it exists to
hold is:

    visible active transcript position == stored head == authoritative state

Narrator editing (D10, STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS §§14-15)

  A narrator edit no longer rewrites a row. It returns to the state before the
  turn, takes the reader's exact text as the accepted narration, re-derives the
  state that text implies, and becomes a new active continuation — while the
  original narration keeps its words, its live flag and its whole future as
  retained history. At the tip the correction is another take; with story below
  it, it forks. No new history machinery: this is the existing fork/take/head
  path with the reader's text in place of a generated reply. The §14A refusal
  is therefore gone for narrator turns, and remains only for player input.

Pre-M5 positions

  Migration 88 backfills the empty narrative document onto every action written
  before M5, and a missing snapshot now restores the empty document instead of
  leaving the previous position's state standing. Restoring to an old Save
  Point no longer leaves a later position's entities and facts on screen.

Narrator context

  Replayed history carries prose only; the machine-readable block is no longer
  reconstructed into past turns, where it contradicted the authoritative state
  in the same prompt. A fact withdrawn by a manual correction is now named as
  no longer true, with the reader's reason, rather than silently dropped.

Also

  - state_changes joins the action-list bulk read, removing one query per row.
  - Extraction takes only the application's own protocol payload: an ordinary
    ```json or ```python block in a story survives, and a mangled proposal
    still does not reach the reader.

Planning: ADR 013 records the authoritative document shape; §§14-15/14A, D10,
C04 and BUILD-MILESTONES are updated to describe what exists. Debt is recorded
against M8 (scenario editor UX) and M9 (export of the audit trail).

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 62a997f364 M4: close out Save Points, with browser verification
Closes M4. The review's three findings are fixed, the durability rule the
specification always implied is now enforced, and M3's and M4's browser
behaviour has been verified in a real browser for the first time.

B-1 -- the Save Point list was an N+1 that loaded whole Action rows,
narration included, to answer "does a row exist here". It is now one bulk
two-column coordinate query plus one lineage: 53 SELECTs for 25 Save Points
became 5, and the count no longer grows with the list. The clause is an OR
of exact (branch, depth) pairs rather than two IN lists, because the cross
product would report a Save Point resolved on the strength of another one's
depth existing on this one's branch. A test builds exactly that trap.

B-2 -- reclassified during closeout from "missing warning" to a behaviour
defect, and fixed as one. STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS §19 says a named checkpoint
remains until explicitly deleted, and §28 already required future cleanup to
retain checkpoint-referenced paths; a cascade that silently removed Save
Points with a branch violated both, and a warning would only have documented
the violation. A branch a Save Point names can no longer be deleted. The
request is refused with the offending Save Points named, the user deletes
them explicitly -- which deletes no story -- and the branch then goes. The
scope is the subtree, because deleting a branch takes its descendants. Both
delete controls disable and explain. Recorded as a new §19.1; models.py,
TECHNICAL-DESIGN §8.8 and DATA-MODEL §8 had all recorded the cascade as the
rule and now record the refusal.

An earlier pass in this same closeout had kept the cascade and added a
warning. That was the wrong fix and its tests were replaced rather than left
standing, since they pinned the defect.

B-3 -- the D11/L03 automation never left one process, so it could not
distinguish durable state from a live Python object. It now spawns real
server processes, kills the first, and reads the campaign back with the
second.

C-5 -- creating a Save Point takes the campaign's turn lock. "Save where I
am" has to name one committed position, and the head is what a turn in
flight is about to move. Rename and Delete deliberately do not take it.

The architecture is untouched: a Save Point is still name + note +
(branch, depth), and restore is still coordinate -> head.move_to_node ->
head.move_to -> attempts.restore_state. No second restore path, no state
copied into a checkpoint, no fork on restore.

Browser verification -- the first in this project, and it covers both
milestones. Firefox 154.0.1 through geckodriver over the W3C WebDriver
protocol, driving the rendered DOM: 47/47 checks, twice, on independent
databases, no console errors. M3's Undo/Redo enable states, transcript
movement, Retry and the take pager, divergence retiring Redo; M4's whole
Save Point lifecycle, both confirmations, and the new branch-delete refusal
including its recovery. No dependency was added: the WebDriver client is
stdlib HTTP.

No application defect was found by the browser. Four failures occurred, all
in the harness -- a wrong SPA route, a wait comparing transcript length when
the empty-story placeholder is longer than the first turn, a fixture
deleting the branch it was reading, and a reload assertion that sampled
once instead of waiting. The last was checked against the app before being
called a harness bug.

Tests: 698 backend pass (was 680), 60 M4, 94 M3 history, 66 export/
migrations, 93 security/local-only. Frontend lint and build clean, Docker
build clean, loopback binding unchanged. No assertion weakened, no skip
added.

Planning: STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS §19.1 is the only behavioural change and it
strengthens §19. V1-ACCEPTANCE-TESTS records D11-D14, I04, L03 and the
E-series, keeping automated, live-runtime and browser evidence distinct, and
weakens no pass condition. DATA-MODEL records the coordinate with the retry
measurement that settles it. BROWSER-UX-SPEC rules for Moment over Turn.
BUILD-MILESTONES marks M4 COMPLETE, closes M3's browser condition, and lists
what M5 inherits. VERSION adds v2.6.

No new ADR: ADR 005 already decides that history is preserved rather than
overwritten, and §19.1 is that decision applied to checkpoint-referenced
history.

M4 is closed. M5 may now be briefed; it has not been started.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 279a871a77 Planning: add the M4 implementation review report and rotate M3's
Reporting pass only. No application code, no test, and no product
requirement changes.

Result: PASS WITH CORRECTIVE WORK REQUIRED.

M4's Definition of Done is met and demonstrated at the API level, including
across a real two-process restart. The load-bearing constraint holds under
inspection rather than assertion: the only head-field assignment M4 added
anywhere in the backend is one line in head.py, and an exhaustive grep of the
diff finds no second mechanism that forks, prunes memories, reconstructs
state, filters the transcript or recomputes Redo.

Three corrective items, all M4's own, none in the head model:

- GET /checkpoints is an N+1 fetching whole Action rows including prose --
  measured at 53 SELECTs for 25 Save Points against 4 for the branch panel,
  in a codebase that keeps test_egress.py for this exact class of mistake;
- deleting a branch silently deletes Save Points naming it, and the branch
  panel's confirmation does not say so. M4 added the consequence to an
  existing destructive action without updating its warning;
- the shipped D11/L03 tests restart a client, not a process, so the suite is
  weaker than the acceptance items it is named for. Both pass here only
  because the report re-ran them across a real process boundary by hand.

The browser smoke test is NOT PERFORMED, for M4 and still for M3. Firefox is
a snap that hangs past 90s on a trivial headless screenshot; there is no
Xvfb, no display, no driver library. Two consecutive milestones now carry an
unperformed browser requirement, which the report raises as a standing
acceptance risk rather than a defect in either milestone's code.

Evidence recorded: 680 backend tests pass (42 M4, 130 M3 invariants, 93
security/local-only), frontend lint and build clean, Docker build clean,
migration 80 verified against a representative pre-M4 database with both
cascades and zero possible orphans, and I04 verified through a real round
trip with branch ids remapped 1->3 and 2->4.

M4 is NOT accepted by this report, and M5 is NOT authorized. That decision
belongs to whoever reviews this.

Rotation: planning/reports/M3-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md moves to
planning/archive/milestone-reports/ as a pure rename, contents unedited
(git reports 100% similarity, 0 insertions, 0 deletions). Six path
references in five active documents are updated because the path changed
and for no other reason -- no status claim, no wording change.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 e08d49c3eb M4: add durable named Save Points
A Save Point is a name for a story position, and restoring one is head
movement. That is the whole architecture, and it is what ADR 012 and
BUILD-MILESTONES' note on M4 asked for: M3 made the head a stored
(branch, depth) and made arriving at one a row lookup plus a state restore,
so a Save Point needs no restore machinery of its own.

What the user gets:

- Name the moment they are reading, keep playing, restart the app, and come
  back to it. Restoring moves the story back and deletes nothing: the later
  turns stay, Redo still walks forward into them, and writing something
  different is what starts a new line while the old one is kept.
- Rename, delete, and a list, in a Save Points panel beside the branch panel,
  with a Save Point button next to Undo and Redo. Both confirmations say what
  is *not* destroyed, because that is the part the screen cannot show.
- Save Points survive export and import.

What was deliberately not built:

- No second restore path. `head.move_to_node` is the only new movement: its
  depth half is M3's `head.move_to` unchanged, and its branch half is the
  single assignment `switch_branch` already makes. No head field is written
  in the checkpoint router, nothing reconstructs state, nothing prunes a
  memory, nothing copies or deletes a turn, and restore never forks — the
  first write below the restored head does, through `fork_if_behind_head`.
- No automatic cleanup. A Save Point behind the head, or naming a line the
  story left, is doing its job (STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS §19). The one removal
  is a cascade: deleting a branch takes its Save Points, as it takes its
  memories, because the story they named went with it.
- No new ADR. ADR 012 already decides the architecture, and a table is not a
  decision.

The one call the planning package did not already make: restore moves the
branch half of the head only when the coordinate is off the path being read.
Doing it unconditionally would quietly hand back an abandoned continuation
whenever a Save Point in a shared prefix was restored; never doing it would
make a Save Point on a departed line unrestorable, which contradicts §19.
TECHNICAL-DESIGN §8.8 records it.

Schema: a `checkpoints` table holding a name, an optional note and a
(branch, depth) coordinate — no copy of any story. `create_all` builds it as
it did `memories` and `branches`; migration 80 adds the index. No backfill,
because nobody had named a position before M4.

The coordinate is deliberately not an action id: one coordinate holds every
attempt at a turn and exactly one is live, so a coordinate follows a retry
where a row id would pin a take the story no longer tells.

Tests: 680 pass (638 before). 42 new in tests/test_save_points.py covering
D11-D14, I04, L03, E-series lineage and memory isolation after restore and
divergence, the edge cases, and an M3-database migration. One pre-existing
fixture in test_tree_migration.py needed `checkpoints` added to its drop
list — SQLite refuses to drop a table another table references.

Not verified: the browser. No session has had a usable one, so the Save
Point panel's DOM behaviour is unobserved — as M3's Redo control still is.
The twenty-step sequence was driven over HTTP against a live server with a
real process restart instead, and all seventeen checks pass. M4 is
implemented, not accepted: no review has been written.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 3c8e91f644 Docs: correct post-M3 status and Ollama configuration
Three stale claims found in active documentation after the post-M3
consolidation:

- BUILD-MILESTONES.md still opened "M1 and M2 complete; M3 next", which
  contradicted its own M3 "Status: COMPLETE" block, planning/README.md and
  VERSION.md. It now states M1, M2 and M3 complete and accepted, M4 next.
- DEVELOPMENT.md described the settings row as "endpoint, model and (unused)
  API key" and sent "api_key":"" in its curl example. M2 removed the field;
  schemas.SettingsUpdate has no api_key. The prose and the example now match
  the real request shape. No application code was changed.
- README.md listed LM Studio as a supported local endpoint. ADR 002 and ADR 011
  make Ollama the only v1 backend; LM Studio is a rejected alternative there.
  The row is removed and the surrounding wording now says Ollama is the
  supported backend, same-host is the default, trusted-LAN Ollama is supported,
  public/cloud is prohibited, and the OpenAI-compatible adapter is an
  implementation detail rather than a support promise. The claude_shim section
  stays, relabelled "(development only)".

Documentation only; no code, schema or test changes.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 d27ee34901 Docs: consolidate active planning and archive historical material
The planning package had grown to where a new agent could not tell what was
authoritative. Phase 0 execution prompts sat beside the specification; four
completed milestone reports sat beside the current one; and upstream AI-DnD's
own `plan/` build log and `docs/` project site still described a hosted,
scripted, multi-user product with accounts — every screenshot in it showed a
Scripts tab and a Sign up button, none of which has existed since M2.

`planning/archive/` now holds the history and says so in its own README:
`phase0/` for the research that chose AI-DnD, `milestone-reports/` for M1 and
M2, `decisions/` for ADR 008, the Phase-0-before-build gate Phase 0 satisfied.
`planning/reports/` holds only the current milestone's report, because that is
the one M4 planning has to read; it moves to the archive when M4's replaces it.

Deleted rather than archived: the Phase 0B execution prompts and the
handoff/status/summary documents, the Phase 0A discovery and triage reports,
upstream's `plan/` and `docs/` trees, and `frontend/README.md`, which was Vite's
template boilerplate. All of it is in Git history, and the two recommendation
reports carry every conclusion the deleted research reached.

Archived documents are kept verbatim. Paths written inside them point at where
those files were when the document was written, which is the point: an evidence
record that has been quietly edited is no longer evidence.

Active documentation is corrected where it pointed at the removed trees or
described removed capability as present. `DEVELOPMENT.md`'s "things M1 did not
touch" list had gone stale at M2 and claimed QuickJS scripting was still tested;
its test count was 604 against an actual 638. `README.md` loses the upstream CI
badge, which reported upstream's pipeline rather than this fork's, and a
reference to `backend/app/worldstate/engine.py`, a file that does not exist.
`planning/README.md` is rewritten as the documentation index.

New: `planning/PROJECT-SOURCES.md` and `planning/project-sources.txt`, the
manifest of what belongs in the ChatGPT project's Sources.

Source comments referring to the deleted trees are reworded; no behaviour
changes. 638 backend tests pass, frontend lints and builds, and a reference scan
over all 48 tracked Markdown files reports no unresolved path in active
documentation.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 c8755c21c2 Planning: close M3 and record active-head architecture
M3's review recommended planning changes and, following the M2 pattern,
reported rather than applied them. This applies them, and adds the ADR the
review asked for.

ADR 012 records the architecture rather than the requirement. ADR 005
already says that going backward must preserve abandoned history and that
the user sees Undo/Redo/Retry rather than branch management; it names a
movable active head as the direction and stops. What M3 settled is the
shape: the head is stored rather than derived, every read of the story is
capped at it in one place, one mechanism moves it, the state of a position
comes off the node rather than from a replay, the first write below a
moved-back head is the divergence, and whether Redo exists is decided by
the lineage rather than by a flag that could be stale. The last of those
is the property worth keeping — a flag can be wrong and make the story
wrong; a lineage cannot.

Two semantics are ratified in STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS.md, both of them
reversals or narrowings that a reader would otherwise take for bugs. Undo
now crosses fork points and continues to the campaign opening, because
refusing at the fork was a consequence of deleting rows the parent line
was also reading, and nothing is deleted any more. And the system refuses
to switch which take is live while a later story is off screen, because
doing it quietly would leave retained history continuing from words the
story no longer says.

A new §14A covers editing in place. §14-15 describe the finished
behaviour — the edit becomes authoritative, the state it implies is
re-evaluated, a new continuation is created, the original is retained —
and that requirement is intact and explicitly not weakened here. It is
also not built, because re-evaluating state from prose a user typed needs
M5's extraction pass. §14A says what exists in the meantime and why
refusing is the minimum that holds the invariant rather than the
destination.

TECHNICAL-DESIGN.md gains §8.7 and §9.1, recording the implemented model
and the bundle behaviour as fact in the way §5.2 records M1 and M2. §10.4
gains a constraint that is easy to lose: the snapshot half of the hybrid
state model is a requirement, not an optimization. Head movement is a row
lookup plus a restore, which is why Undo, Redo and Save Point restore cost
the same at any distance into a campaign; a state model recoverable only
by replaying from the opening would make all three proportional to
campaign length, on exactly the long campaigns this product is for.

DATA-MODEL.md records the head as stored on the campaign rather than
derived from its newest turn — two campaigns holding identical turns can
be read at different places, and nothing about the turns can tell them
apart — and the branch disposition as implemented: the depth a divergent
write left the branch at, deliberately advisory, and carried through
export because every row of an abandoned line is exported either way.

BUILD-MILESTONES.md marks M3 complete and states the one condition still
open. M4 is told a Save Point is a durable pointer and that restoring one
is head movement with a bounds check, not a restore system: a second
mover is the specific failure to avoid, because the two paths would
silently disagree about what restore means. M5 gets three constraints —
keep state efficiently recoverable, move the test instrumentation rather
than the assertions when the world-state protocol goes, and finish the
narrator edit §14A defers.

V1-ACCEPTANCE-TESTS.md clarifies ownership without lowering a bar. D10
keeps all three pass conditions and is explicitly recorded as *not*
satisfied at the end of M3; what changed is that the document now says
which milestone delivers which condition. D03's result is recorded as a
full pass rather than the partial the text allowed for, I07 gains the
pre-M3 bundle clause, and L01 gains the note that resolves its apparent
conflict with A05 — a failed turn does advance the head by one, onto the
player's retained input, and that is A05 working rather than L01 failing.

README.md described a different application: a hosted demo, guest
accounts, cloud providers, Postgres, a Render blueprint, an analytics
dashboard, a QuickJS scripting engine, and 549 tests. M2 removed all of
that and the README was never updated — a gap M2's own debt table missed.
It now describes what this fork is, including the endpoint policy and the
TLS behaviour, and the numbers in it are the current ones.

M3's report is included here as its own evidence record: no separate
baseline report was produced, so it carries the raw counts and runtime
observations as well as the review, and §W records this closeout.

SPECIFICATION.md and SECURITY-THREAT-MODEL.md are unchanged. M3 altered no
product requirement and touched no path in the threat model.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 7f082b61d8 M3: complete non-destructive history and active-head export
The head-cursor model landed in 903fa7a and stopped there: the backend
moved the head instead of deleting turns, but a bundle still reopened at
its newest row, the browser had no way forward, and five inherited tests
still asserted the contract Undo had just stopped honouring. This is the
rest of the milestone, plus the one unsafe operation the review found.

Export now writes headDepth, and it belongs on the other side of the rule
app/bundle.py states about itself. The head depth used to be derived —
the tip of the head branch, a fact about the nodes that arrived with it —
and that was true while Undo deleted, because the newest row was the only
place a story could be read. It is a decision now: the same tree exports
identically whether the user undid three turns or none, so the file has
to say. An import that ignored it would silently Redo the story to its
newest retained turn, which is the Phase 0B export finding this milestone
exists to close. A file with no headDepth is opened at the tip, which is
not a fallback but the position such a file recorded; a file naming a
depth its own rows do not reach is refused in plan(), before a row is
written, for the reason that module gives about half-written trees.

Which branches the story has left goes into the file for the same reason.
Every row of an abandoned line arrives on an import either way, so the
disposition is the only thing telling it apart from an active one, and a
restored backup that had lost it would have nothing for the later cleanup
and recovery screens to select on. Both keys or neither: a time with no
depth cannot say what was displaced.

The browser gets a Redo button beside Undo, on Ctrl+Shift+Z, and both are
enabled from can_undo/can_redo rather than from the transcript. Neither
is derivable on the client — Undo stops at the campaign opening, which
may be off the top of the loaded window, and Redo depends on the retained
future, which the client is never sent — so the flags now ride on every
window the server hands back, including a scrolled-up page and the
response to an import. Moving the head also refreshes the state panels,
which undo never did: it has rolled the world state back since long
before M3 and the drawer kept showing the old numbers.

An in-place edit is now refused when story descends from the turn and is
not on screen. Editing rewrites one row and re-evaluates nothing, which
is what makes it a correction rather than a continuation, and that is
harmless while everything below the turn is visible — the reader can see
what their change has to agree with. It stops being harmless when the
continuation is undone, or was left behind by a divergence, because the
edit then silently changes the words an invisible stretch of story was
written from. That was the one way M3's retained history could be made to
contradict itself. Refusing is deliberately the whole of the fix: making
such an edit fork is STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS.md §14-15, and §15 wants the
state the edited prose implies re-evaluated, which is M5's extraction
pass. The requirement is not weakened, only deferred, and §14A now says
so.

The predicate asks one question rather than two. A descendant is
invisible either because it is past the head on this lineage or because
it is past a fork on a branch the story left, and both are "a live node,
deeper than this one, descending from it, off the path being read". A
first attempt scoped the search to branches other than the active one and
failed the divergence case, correctly: the departed branch is usually an
ancestor of the branch now being read. Only the deepest live node on each
descending branch is examined, because visibility is monotone in depth.

Five inherited tests are rewritten rather than deleted, because what they
were protecting is still worth protecting and only the mechanism changed.
The undo-state pair keeps its state assertions and swaps "the rows are
gone" for "the rows are all here and the story is read from earlier". The
memory test stops asserting that undo prunes memories and starts
asserting the property that replaced it: a memory past the head is
unreachable, still on disk, and retrievable again after Redo, with no
re-embedding. The attempt-group test still proves the group moves as one,
out of the story rather than out of the database. And the fork test
reverses: Undo used to refuse at a fork point because it deleted rows the
parent branch was also reading, and with nothing deleted there is nothing
to protect the parent from, so it now walks into the story the branch
inherits and stops at the campaign opening instead.

tests/test_head_cursor.py is the milestone's acceptance contract, named
by the items it discharges: D01-D10, E01-E04, I01-I03, I07, L01-L02, and
the invariant they all rest on — Undo deletes zero accepted turns,
asserted on row ids over the whole retained tree. E02 has both controls,
because a negative control alone would pass if memory retrieval were
simply broken. L01 records what it does not claim: the head does move by
one on a failed turn, onto the player's retained input, which is A05
rather than a gap. Two of the edit-guard tests exist to prove the guard
stays out of the way — a correction at the tip and a correction mid-story
with everything visible must both still work.

638 backend tests pass. Frontend lint is unchanged at seven pre-existing
warnings, none in the files touched; the bundle builds at 395.85 kB; the
production image builds.

Verified at runtime against the trusted-LAN Ollama over HTTPS: three
turns, two Undos, a Redo, a Retry, an Undo, a divergent continuation,
Redo correctly refused with 400, Undo back to the opening, export, a
process restart that reopened the campaign still undone, and an import
that opened at the same position with its retained future intact. The
browser click-through of that sequence has not been run — no session in
this milestone had a browser to drive — so the Redo control itself is
verified by its endpoint and its lint and build, not by a click.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 903fa7a74f M3: move the story's head instead of deleting its turns
Undo deleted. It removed the trailing AI action and the player action in
front of it, pruned the memories covering them, and let the tip fall back
to whatever survived. That made it the one operation in the application
that destroyed accepted story, and it was why there was no Redo: the
turns to move forward into no longer existed. Phase 0B demonstrated the
head-cursor alternative in a disposable spike; this is that concept as
production code.

backend/app/head.py is the whole of it. Three questions that used to be
one — where the story is being read, how far it is retained, and where it
opens — are now three functions, and every caller that moves the head or
asks about it goes through this module. The spike put the fork check in
the write path and left Retry and Add-take on the old one; sharing the
rules is what stops that divergence coming back.

lineage.Path now caps every entry at the head, so hiding the retained
future costs nothing at the call sites: the transcript, the context
builder, attempts.preceding and memory retrieval already funnelled
through path_of and narrow together. Path.uncapped() is the deliberate
exception, and only Redo and the fork check may use it. The memory bank
needs no pruning for the same reason — a memory carries the coordinate of
the node its block ends on, so one derived past the head falls outside
the capped clause and becomes retrievable again on Redo without having
been deleted and re-embedded.

Undo alone does not fork. Moving the head is not a decision to abandon
anything, since the user may be reading or about to Redo; the first write
below the head is where the story states which continuation it means. A
head already at the tip forks nothing, so a story that is never undone
forks exactly as often as it did before and the branch table does not
fill up with one branch per turn. Redo follows the lineage rather than
choosing among branches, which is what invalidates it after a divergence
with no flag to set or clear.

Migrations 78 and 79 give a branch superseded_at and superseded_depth.
Nothing reads them to decide behaviour — Redo is decided by the lineage,
so a stale or hand-edited value here cannot make the story wrong. They
exist so the cleanup and discarded-history features left to a later
version have something to select on, and so a divergence is observable in
a test.

Deleting an action no longer drags a moved-back head forward to the
recomputed tip, which would have silently redone the story. can_undo and
can_redo ride on AdventureOut and ActionPage because the client can work
out neither for itself: the campaign opening may be off the top of the
loaded window, and the retained future is never sent to it.

This is a checkpoint, not the finished milestone. 601 backend tests pass.
Five still assert the destructive contract — they count rows after an
undo and expect the story to be shorter — and need rewriting against the
new one; the world-state assertions inside them already pass. Export and
import do not yet carry the head coordinate, so a bundle still reopens at
the deepest node and can silently redo an undone story, which is the
Phase 0B finding this milestone exists to close. The browser has no Redo
control yet. None of the M3 acceptance coverage (D01-D10, E01-E04,

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 2fdd2547f0 Planning: record M2 closeout decisions
M2's review reported six planning recommendations rather than applying them,
three marked before M3. All six are applied here, plus three additions drawn
from the same evidence. No implementation file is touched.

The endpoint policy was the gap that mattered. It is the most consequential
setting in the application — the storyteller sends the player's prose, the
context, the memories and the embedding inputs to whatever address it names —
and it existed only as a module docstring. It is now ADR 011 and a new §10A in
the threat model, which also retires the assumption in §71A that the inherited
guard was a starting point. It was not: AI-DnD's SSRF guard blocked private
addresses to stop a hosted server reaching its own internal network, which is
the exact opposite of what a local storyteller needs. It was removed, not
adapted.

Both documents state the rule as implemented — an allowlist of explicit
local-network CIDRs, every resolved address checked, enforced on save and again
before every outbound request, TLS never traded against it — and both state the
two residual limits plainly rather than implying they are covered: a hostile
host already on the trusted LAN is inside the permitted boundary, and a
rebinding interval exists between the policy's resolution and the client's
connection. Accepted risks, not M3 work.

The CIDRs are spelled out rather than derived from is_private/is_reserved, and
the ADR records why: is_private is true of the documentation ranges and
0.0.0.0/8, and is_reserved is true of IPv6 loopback, so a rule built on it
refuses an ordinary same-host Ollama on [::1].

TECHNICAL-DESIGN §5.1 items 3 and 4 are marked done, closing all five hardening
items. A new §5.2 records the M1/M2 architecture as fact rather than intention,
so later milestones inherit what the code does. A new §18.1 carries the lesson
of M2's two regressions: when removing a setting, test a real consumer
construction path; when adding one, prove it reaches the component that uses
it. Both defects hid behind a green suite because the tests at that boundary
were mocks.

BUILD-MILESTONES records M2 complete, with the capabilities later milestones
inherit and the debt carried forward. Two notes go to milestones that would
otherwise misread what M2 left them. M5 is told that eight rollback tests now
use the world-state engine as instrumentation and not as endorsement — the
instrumentation moves when the protocol does, and those tests are reworked
rather than deleted. M6 is told that the memory bank died silently under a
green suite, so background failure must be observable and at least one real
provider-construction path must be tested.

The security contract gains what M2 demonstrated. H10 now names the two
conditions that were defects during M2: a wildcard origin must be refused at
startup, and an unknown /api path must 404 rather than returning the SPA with
200. New H12 covers endpoint enforcement, and its fourth pass condition is the
one that matters — a public endpoint written into the database behind the
settings API must still be refused at the wire. A build passing the first three
and failing that one has configuration validation only.

SPECIFICATION.md is deliberately unchanged. M2 altered no product requirement;
it removed capability the specification never asked for.

The two M2 reports gain appended closeout notes rather than edits. Their
original wording about an uncommitted working tree was true when written, and
the note records what happened afterwards: the six-file correction is 8652fe7,
8c65ae9 remains the implementation commit, and the two were never squashed.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 8652fe7cd8 M2 review: two regressions the green suite hid, and the reports
The post-implementation review of M2, plus the three corrections it took
to make the evidence true. Reports:

  planning/reports/M2-BASELINE-REPORT.md        868 lines, the measurements
  planning/reports/M2-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md  758 lines, the reading of them

Verdict is PASS, accept with non-blocking debt, proceed to M3. Every M2
requirement is met and the ones that matter were tested by running the
build rather than reading it: a cloud endpoint written straight into
SQLite with sqlite3, behind the API's back, still refused at the wire;
trusted-LAN HTTPS against the real second machine with verification on;
captures showing zero packets outside loopback and the approved host.

Three defects, all found by running the shipped image.

The memory bank was dead. M2 removed Settings.api_key_plain with the API
key, and memorybank's two provider factories still read it. It failed
inside a fire-and-forget task, so no user error, no log anyone would
read, and no test — every memory test stubs those factories. All 604
tests passed with summaries and embeddings silently not happening.

The configurable model timeout never reached the turn engine. Stored,
validated, exposed in the API, rendered in the UI, and not passed to the
provider. M2's own exit criterion was half met: the constant had moved
but the setting did nothing.

And requirements.lock still pinned quickjs, psycopg and cryptography, so
the setup path DEVELOPMENT.md gives a new developer would have
reinstalled all three.

Both code defects now have the test that would have caught them: one
constructs every provider factory from a real Settings row, one drives
the turn endpoint, the chat endpoint and the summariser and asserts the
configured timeout arrives at each. That is the lesson worth keeping from
this milestone — after removing an attribute, build each consumer from a
real object; after adding a setting, prove it lands. Both failures were
in background or plumbing paths, which is exactly where a subtractive
change cannot see itself.

606 tests pass, up from 604. Lint, build and image are clean. Every
runtime result in the baseline report came from an image built after
these fixes; the reports say plainly that commit 8c65ae9 itself does not
contain them.

Also recorded: 88 test node IDs disappeared and every one is accounted
for — 64 whole files whose subject was removed, 5 replaced by a better
file, 15 individually retired with their features, and 4 renames. No
meaningful coverage was lost, and the eight files that used a JavaScript
counter as instrumentation kept their assertions by moving the counter to
the world-state engine.

Six planning recommendations are reported, not applied. Three are marked
before M3: the threat model still describes the inherited SSRF guard's
opposite rule, TECHNICAL-DESIGN §5.1 still marks two hardening items
open, and the endpoint policy is a load-bearing security decision that
exists only as a module docstring and deserves an ADR.

M3 is clear to start. Its chokepoints are untouched or simplified — the
rollback paths now carry one shared state instead of two — and the Phase
0B undo/redo spike still applies. No M3 work here: Undo still deletes and
there is still no Redo.

JesseMarkowitz 8c65ae99de M2: cut the hosted product away from the local one
94 files, +1,395 -6,578. Three files are new; twenty-four are gone. The
milestone is subtraction, and what is left is the single-user local
storyteller the specification describes.

Removed in full: campaign scripting and its QuickJS sandbox; multi-user
accounts, guest sessions, login, registration and the shared demo key;
the visitor-analytics tables, dashboard and page beacon; the access log
of sign-ins, addresses and devices; per-IP and per-user rate limiting
and quotas; Render deployment config; Postgres and psycopg; cloud
inference providers, the API-key field and the key encryption that
existed to store it; session-cookie signing. None of it was hidden
behind a flag — the routes are gone and answer 404.

Two things were kept that the brief allowed keeping. The `users` table
and its foreign keys stay as an internal ownership detail, because
rewriting them out means a migration across most of the schema to
delete a column that costs nothing; nothing creates a second user and
no request carries an identity. Five inert tables and four inert
columns stay for the same reason, so an M1 campaign database opens
unchanged.

The one addition is app/endpoints.py, which decides where a story may
be sent. Loopback, RFC1918, link-local, unique-local and CGNAT — an
explicit allowlist of networks, not a guess at what `ipaddress` means
by "private", which calls the documentation ranges private and IPv6
loopback reserved. Every address a hostname resolves to must be in it,
so a split answer does not squeak through, and the rule runs both when
the endpoint is saved and before every outbound request, because a name
that resolved to the LAN this morning can resolve elsewhere this
afternoon. Known cloud hosts are named in the refusal so the error says
why rather than looking like broken DNS. TLS is never traded against
it: M1's shared trust context is intact on all four clients and there
is no way to skip verification.

The hardcoded 120-second model timeout is now a setting. That was not
theoretical — on this GPU-less four-core host a cold load of
qwen2.5:3b-instruct took 648.9 seconds to produce the first turn, while
turns 2 to 5 of the same campaign took 3.6 to 13.1. Connect stays short
at 10s so a wrong address still fails fast; the read timeout defaults
to 300s and is bounded at 3600, because "wait longer" must stay a
number.

Two defects found while testing and fixed here. An unknown /api path
fell through the SPA catch-all and came back as HTML with status 200,
so a client asking for JSON parsed a web page instead of learning the
route was gone. And AIDND_CORS_ORIGINS accepted "*", which on an
unauthenticated loopback API would hand every page on the Internet a
write handle on the campaign database; it now refuses to start.

Verified rather than assumed. Offline, on a network with no route out
and no DNS: five turns, retry with both takes retained, restart with an
identical transcript digest, a failed model call leaving the accepted
AI-turn count untouched, and a capture with zero non-loopback unicast
packets. Against a real second machine on the LAN over HTTPS with a
private CA: four turns, restart, and a capture showing 289 packets to
the approved host, 344 loopback, zero anywhere else, zero DNS queries.
Cloud and public endpoints refused with their reasons; no API key
settable; every removed route 404.

604 backend tests pass, down from 648 by the fifteen retired with the
subsystems they tested and up by the twenty-nine added for the endpoint
policy and the removed surface. The scripting tests were not deleted:
eight files used a JavaScript counter as instrumentation for the state
snapshot and rollback machinery, which M2 does not touch, so the
counter moved to the world-state engine and those tests still assert
what they always did. Frontend lint and build are clean; the image
builds, and its wheel-building stage is gone with quickjs.

No M3 work. Undo is still destructive and there is still no Redo.

JesseMarkowitzandClaude Opus 5 c1a73b3d77 M1: make the first story turn work with no Internet
Phase 0B ran the upstream application on a network with no route out and
the first turn died in tiktoken, which downloads its BPE table the first
time anything counts a token. The browser separately fetched three font
families from Google on every page load. Neither is visible on a machine
that has been online once, which is why both now have tests.

The tokenizer table is vendored at
backend/app/context/vendor/cl100k_base.tiktoken and
backend/app/context/encoding.py builds the encoding from it directly,
verifying its SHA-256 against the digest tiktoken itself pins for that
URL. No code path in the tokenizer can reach the network any more —
not a warm cache, not an environment variable a deployment could forget.
The encoding was checked token for token against tiktoken's own.

The three font families are self-hosted as variable fonts under
frontend/public/fonts/ (343 KiB, Latin and Latin Extended), declared in
frontend/src/styles/fonts.css, and re-vendored by
frontend/tools/vendor_fonts.py. Their OFL licences ship beside them.
With no remote asset left, the CSP drops both Google hosts and gains
object-src, base-uri and form-action; woff2 also gets its real media
type, which Python's table lacks on a slim image.

A trusted-LAN Ollama turned out not to work at all over HTTPS. httpx
verifies against the certifi bundle, so an endpoint whose certificate
comes from a CA the user installed on their own machines — a StartOS
server's Ollama, for one — was refused with CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED
while curl and the browser on the same host accepted it.
app/tlstrust.py builds one context that unions the platform CA store
with certifi's, and all four outbound clients use it. A union rather
than a swap, so an image with an empty system store cannot start failing
on endpoints that worked before. Verification itself is untouched:
CERT_REQUIRED, hostname checking on, and no insecure escape hatch.

The storyteller listener is now loopback by explicit statement rather
than by inheriting uvicorn's default: start.sh, start.ps1, and
docker-compose.yml, which publishes to 127.0.0.1 rather than every
interface. Reaching an Ollama on another machine is outbound and needs
none of that inbound exposure.

backend/requirements.lock pins the exact tested closure;
requirements.txt keeps the ranges. DEVELOPMENT.md covers setup, the
same-host and trusted-LAN Ollama configurations, and how to re-run the
offline proof. PROVENANCE.md records the upstream commit, the MIT terms,
and both vendored assets.

Verified, not just compiled. On an --internal Docker network with
1.1.1.1 unreachable and no name resolving, a campaign was created and
played for six turns through same-host Ollama, restarted, and resumed.
A second run played ten turns through Ollama on a separate physical
machine on the LAN over verified HTTPS, summaries and embeddings
included, with the storyteller's default route deleted so the LAN was
reachable and the Internet was not. Its capture: 893 packets to the
approved host, 730 loopback, zero anywhere else, and zero DNS queries.
Two induced model failures left the accepted story bit-identical. The
inherited SPA was opened in a browser and a campaign read back from it.
Evidence is in planning/reports/M1-BASELINE-REPORT.md, along with the
findings that did not belong in this change.

648 backend tests pass, up from the inherited 632; frontend lint and
build are clean; the image builds. No M2 work is included: the hosted,
cloud, analytics, Postgres and scripting surfaces are untouched.

Claude d72f7c1bda Stop paying twice for a block a retry can still throw away
A memory whose block ends on the newest action is the one memory a player
can reach: retry and take-switching both refuse anything else. Each retry
of that turn withdrew the memory and wrote it again, and a block closes
every six actions while a normal turn writes two, so that was one turn in
three.

SETTLE_SLACK asks for one action past a block before the block is
summarized. The block is still MEMORY_INTERVAL actions; only the moment
moves. This is not the pre-SP4 holdback returning: that one was about a
retry rewriting text in place, which sibling attempts and forget_node
settled, and correctness still rests on the withdrawal rather than on the
slack. Undo and delete can carry a summarized node back to the tip, so the
withdrawal path stays reachable, just rarely.

The slack buys nothing back. The block that just closed is still in the
history window in full, so a memory of it says what the model can already
read.

Tests: the settling suite asserts the new rule and that a retry at the tip
finds nothing to withdraw; the rewrite suite builds thirteen actions so
both of its blocks settle; the one path test that ended on a block boundary
sets the slack to zero, because it is about which actions a block is read
from rather than about when a block forms. 632 green.

Claude 745a4ea9f3 Stop printing the database password
The report opened with the connection string it was about to work on, taken
straight from AIDND_DATABASE_URL. On the hosted deploy that string carries the
Neon password, so the first line of every run put a live credential into the
console — and from there into scrollback, a screenshot, or a pasted bug report.
Nothing in the output said it was there to notice.

It now prints scheme, user, host and database name. The query string goes whole:
sslmode is the only part worth reading, and some drivers accept a password
there as well.

631 green.

Claude eeab8ef5bb Survive the console this will actually be run from
The report prints an arrow between the old and new word counts, and it prints
the memories themselves, which are model-written prose. A Windows console
defaults to cp1252 and cannot encode either, so the run dies on
UnicodeEncodeError partway through — after some memories have been rewritten
and committed, which is the worst place to stop. STATUS already carries the
same warning for tools/dbmeter.py.

stdout is reconfigured to UTF-8 with errors="replace" instead, so the report
degrades a character at a time rather than failing.

The usage notes were also written for a POSIX shell, and this project is
developed in PowerShell, where `VAR=x command` is not a thing. Both docs now
give the PowerShell form first, via Read-Host so the Neon URL and the secret
stay out of the history file, and name the venv's Python.

Claude 4c94dd0fc0 Keep a production run to the adventures you meant
The hosted database is not the local one. It holds other people's stories, and
`summary_provider` builds from the adventure owner's Settings, so an unfiltered
`--write` against it would spend other people's money rewriting memories they
never asked about. `--adventure` could already hold a run down, but only if you
knew the ids.

`--email` names accounts instead, and every line of the report now says who owns
the adventure, so a dry run answers "whose keys would this spend" before
anything is written. Guests have no email and stay reachable only by id, which
is the right amount of friction for touching a stranger's bank.

The other half is written down rather than built: stored API keys are encrypted
with AIDND_SECRET_KEY, so a run from a checkout against the Neon database needs
the same value the web service holds. With a different one `decrypt_secret`
returns "" instead of failing, and every adventure is reported as having no key
— a run that looks like it worked and did nothing. The Dockerfile copies
backend/app alone, so tools/ is not on the box either way; the recipe is a
checkout pointed at AIDND_DATABASE_URL.

629 green.

Claude 0633cb624e Run the new memory prompt back over an old bank
The prompt change only reaches memories written after it. plan/18 decided to
leave the existing ones alone and let eviction age them out at
memory_bank_capacity, on the grounds that re-summarizing would duplicate
whatever was still in the bank because nothing deletes the old rows.

That was wrong about the only option. A memory can be rewritten in place. The
row carries more than its text — whether it is pinned, how often it has been
retrieved, and the node it hangs off, which is what makes a fork inherit the
right memories — and rewriting `text` keeps all of it. Deleting the bank and
rewinding the cursor would lose that, and would trickle memories back at
MAX_MEMORIES_PER_RUN per turn, so an adventure nobody is playing would never
recover.

tools/rewrite_memories.py does it. Without --write it makes no model calls and
only reports the scope; --write rewrites, --embed re-embeds in the run rather
than leaving it to the app's post-turn pass. It reads whichever database the
app reads, so it works against the hosted Postgres as well as a local file.

Two things it needed from the app. `summarize_block` is now the one place a
memory prompt is assembled, and the post-turn pass calls it too — a backfill
that built its own prompt would be writing memories with a prompt that never
shipped, and nothing would report the drift. `source_block` reads a memory's
block back out of the story, which nothing has ever had to do: it reads on the
lineage of the branch the memory was written on, not the branch being played,
because after a fork the same depths hold different actions on each side and a
read through the adventure's path would summarize the wrong story silently.
It also excludes the discarded attempts at a retried turn, and tolerates a
block an action has since been deleted from.

Left alone: a memory with no source range, which is hand-written or migrated by
62 and may be the player's own words; a memory whose actions are gone; and an
adventure whose owner has no API key, because summarization spends the user's
own key by construction and never the shared demo key. --api-key/--model/
--endpoint override that, the last of them aiming a run at claude_shim.py.

The vector is cleared for every rewrite, because the stored one describes
wording that no longer exists. Re-embedding always uses the owner's own
embedding model, never --endpoint: a vector only means anything against the
vectors it is ranked beside.

17 tests, 627 green. The fork case is the one that would fail quietly, so the
test builds a fork whose depths hold different actions on each side.

Claude 71b24b6229 Replicate the A/B on a fresh story, and narrow one claim
The checked-in harness was run end to end through the shim on a newly
generated story, which is both a check that it works and an independent
replication.

The finding the change is for held: across two runs, none of the four
control memories names the protagonist and all four treatment memories
do. The length finding held too — controls at 34, 89, 105 and 107 words,
a four-fold spread with no budget stated anywhere, against 54 and 55
under MEMORY_MAX_WORDS.

One claim did not replicate, and the writeups now say so. Run 1 produced
two control memories in two different persons, which is the reported
complaint exactly, and plan/18 presented that as reproduced. Run 2's
controls were both "the player", consistently. Drifting between second
and third person is therefore something a model sometimes does, observed
once, not something it does every time. The naming gap is the durable
result and the writeups now lead with that instead.

Claude 712ef44f57 Keep the A/B, and the harness that produced it
The run that justified MEMORY_MAX_WORDS lived in a scratch directory and
would have been gone with the container. The numbers in plan/18 were
therefore assertions nobody could check.

plan/18-appendix-memory-ab-run.md now carries the whole transcript: both
memories, both summaries, and the thirteen-action story they were
written from.

backend/tools/memory_ab.py reproduces it. It replaces the throwaway
script the first run used, and differs in two ways that matter. It goes
through OpenAICompatibleProvider rather than calling a model directly,
so a run exercises the provider, the streaming path and complete()
instead of a stub. And it reads the control prompt out of git at the
commit given to --before, so the thing being compared against cannot
drift from what actually shipped.

There was already a claude_shim.py serving an OpenAI-compatible endpoint
backed by the CLI, which is exactly what the throwaway script had
reinvented. memory_ab.py points at it by default, so a run spends a
Claude subscription rather than API credit, and --endpoint aims it at
the provider the deployed app really uses — which is the one question
this whole exercise could not answer.

Claude 07192767d8 Give a memory a word ceiling, after measuring one
Ran the memory prompt end to end against a real model as a controlled
A/B: one story generated through the app's own build_context a turn at
a time, then both prompts run over the same blocks, so the story is held
constant and the prompt is the only variable. Fresh process per call, so
neither arm sees the other and the model is never told what is being
tested. The control is the exact prompt from 9cdcb55.

The reported fault reproduced. Two consecutive memories written from one
story minutes apart came back in two different persons — "You crept low
through the mist" and "The player asked Gwen to". With the cast brief
both named Kaelen. The control also inverted who acted on a move whose
player text was "grab her wrist and pull her down", which is the failure
the brief predicts: with no cast there is nothing to say whose wrist
"her wrist" was.

It also found something the prompt review had not. "1-2 plain sentences"
is not a length, and the same model wrote 34 words for one block and 105
for the next. A 105-word memory is a paragraph, and `memory_top_k`
injects five every turn, so the bank's running cost was set by a number
nobody had ever stated.

MEMORY_MAX_WORDS states it, and the prompt now says which details to
keep when trimming: the ones a later scene could turn on. Re-run over
the identical story, the same two blocks came back at 32 and 58 words,
still named, still third person, still carrying the camp map, the
strongbox behind the second tent, and the strap frayed near through.
Variance is the real gain — 34..105 became 32..58.

Overshooting 50 slightly is expected. Models exceed word budgets, which
is why builder.length_hint already carries a buffer for the same reason.

What this does not show: the run used a Claude model, and the app talks
to an OpenAI-compatible endpoint whose weaker models are why
worldstate/parse.py tolerates trailing commas. The prompt is followable
and the brief supplies the missing information; a weaker model is not

Claude 1b5e4c56cd Tell the summarizer who the characters are
`_create_due_memories` sent six actions of second-person prose and
nothing else — no protagonist, no cast, no setting, and no instruction
about what person to write in. So for `You push the door open. She grabs
your arm.` the only honest memory was "You entered a room and she
stopped you", which names nobody when it is retrieved forty turns later.
The framing wandered too: with no rule, the model picked a person per
call, and one bank ended up holding "You entered the crypt", "The player
entered the crypt" and "He entered the crypt" for the same kind of
event.

Both prompts now carry a cast brief and a framing rule: third person,
the protagonist by name, other characters named rather than left as bare
pronouns. The rule states its reason, because a memory really is read in
isolation much later and a model told why complies far more
consistently than one handed a bare instruction.

The cast comes from the story cards, not from `stat_schema`. Every
schema NPC is already turned into a card at adventure creation,
deduplicated against the hand-written ones by name, so the cards cover
schema NPCs, an author's own cards, and an adventure with no RPG layer
at all through one path instead of three.

Keyword matching alone was not enough, and finding that out changed the
design. Built that way first, the brief for "She grabs your arm" listed
the protagonist and nobody else: the block that most needs a cast is
exactly the one written in bare pronouns, and Gwen's trigger keys
include "her" but the text says "she". So matched cards come first and
the remaining slots are filled with the other character cards. Places
and items are not topped up — an unmentioned tavern is not who "she"
was — though a place that is mentioned still matches normally. The
asymmetry with the turn prompt is deliberate: an untriggered card is
wrong as lore and right in a roster, because the roster answers "who
could these pronouns be" rather than "what is on stage".

Fixed descriptions only, never live values. `Gwen: trust 40 (wary)` in
the brief would make the same event summarized at two different times
come out framed differently, which is the fault this removes.

An adventure with no persona still gets the cast and the setting, and
the model is told to write "the player". One with nothing to say sends
byte for byte the prompt it sent before.

Claude dfb56d4569 Record that the persona was driven in a browser
Chromium against a fresh database with the demo scenarios seeded. No API
key needed: Insights assembles the prompt without calling a model, so the
checks run on the real assembled context rather than a stub.

21/21. The two request failures in the run were the sandbox — Google
Fonts is blocked by the egress policy, and the analytics beacon is
aborted on unload — not the app.

The case worth naming: a blank adventure with no RPG layer produced
sections `['narrator', 'persona', 'length_hint']`. That is what the
persona was added for, and it is the one thing no unit test in this repo
would have caught if the section had been gated behind `has_ws`.

Claude 9ee052c51e Give the adventure a persona, so the protagonist has a name
The player had stats but no identity. `stat_schema.player` carried hp and
mana beside `npc.gwen.trust`, but where an NPC has a name and a
description the player had neither, so the block rendered as
`You: hp 100/100` and nothing in the prompt said who "you" was.

Three columns on `adventures`: name, pronouns, description. All
user-only, all optional, and an empty name means the app behaves exactly
as it did before — no backfill, no special case for an adventure that
predates the migration.

They are adventure columns rather than part of `stat_schema` for two
reasons. An adventure with no RPG layer still has a protagonist, and
that is the case this was added for. And `worldstate.schema._initials`
treats every dict inside a stat section as a stat definition, so a
persona placed there would be instantiated, rendered in the guide, and
handed an `initial` value as though it were one.

The paths do not change. `player.hp` stays `player.hp`; only the label
moves, to `Kaelen (player): hp 100/100`, the same way NPC lines already
print a display name beside the id. A path carrying the persona's name
would break the moment a player renamed their character, because
`_history_text` replays every past turn's stored delta into the prompt
and those blobs hold literal `player.hp` strings.

The section sits in the system block. Only the user can edit it, so it
never changes mid-story and stays inside the cached prefix. That is what
makes it free, and it is why the AI must not be able to move it — a
delta aimed at `persona.*` is already refused by `_resolve`, and there
is now a test holding that in place.

The modal that used to appear only for scenarios with `${Placeholder}`
tokens now always opens, and is where the character is named. Persona
and placeholders stay independent: a scenario asking for `${Name}` is
asking its own question. No scenario in the repo uses placeholders at
all, so the overlap is hypothetical.

Phase 2, which feeds the persona and the cast to the summarizer, is
written up in plan/18 and not started. That is where the memory-quality
problem actually gets fixed; this change is what gives it a name to use.

Not yet driven in a browser — plan/18 lists what to check by hand.

Phase 17: split the four largest files, remove duplication, and drop the legacy columns
2026-08-30 19:01:40 +05:30
parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 6a5d8e98f9 Give the stress fixture back its sibling attempts
`place_action` used to read `depth` from `index`, so the fixture's retry
attempts all landed on the turn's own depth and formed one sibling group.
Now that depth comes from the head, each attempt moved the head one step
and every retry became a turn of its own. The fixture's own check caught
it: a coordinate holding a single superseded attempt has no live row, and
that turn disappears from the story.

The attempts at one turn share that turn's coordinate, so only the first
one goes through `place_action` and the rest copy its placement. This is
what `attempts.add_attempt` does. The fixture cannot call it directly,
because it makes the newest attempt live and the fixture needs a live
attempt that is often not the newest.

Also drop the `variant_index` and `variant_count` arguments, which raise
`TypeError` now, and read the two mark positions from a helper instead of
from the adventure columns migrations 72 and 73 removed.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 949f58a054 Sweep the last three uses of the columns SP8 dropped
`seed_demo.py` still passed `index=0` to `models.Action`, which raises
`TypeError` now that the attribute is gone. Every call site inside `app/`
was updated when the column went, but the seed script sits outside the
package and was missed.

`bundle.settle` wrote `memory_cursor` and `summary_cursor`, which are no
longer mapped, so the assignments only set transient Python attributes.
The version 2 branch existed solely to make those assignments, and it ran
two queries per cursor to do it, so it goes. `settle` now returns early
when the bundle carries anchors. The `db` parameter is unused after that.

Also move the comment about deleted memories next to the
`db.delete(branch)` it describes. Splitting the router package left it
after the `finally`, where it read as attached to nothing.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 20f0753277 Merge main into the Phase 17 refactor
`main` changed the four files this branch split into packages, so all four
came back as modify/delete conflicts. Each change is ported to the module
that now holds the code, unchanged in behavior:

- `delete_action` moves to `routers/adventures/actions.py`. It reaches the
  turn lock as `turns.acquire_turn_lock` and `turns._active_turns`, which is
  the rule this branch set: the package root no longer re-exports the names a
  test rebinds.
- `EMIT_RULE` moves to `worldstate/parse.py`, and `_describe_stat` and
  `render_reference` to `worldstate/render.py`.
- The chip-wrap rules move to `styles/schema-editor.css`, and
  `StateChangeChips` to `pages/Play/reports.jsx`. `index.css` keeps this
  branch's import list.

`test_delete_state.py` needed four edits to run here. It drops the eight-line
database prologue, because `conftest.py` does that once now. It imports the
shared `ScriptedProvider` from `fakes.py` instead of carrying a copy. It
patches `adventures.turns.OpenAICompatibleProvider` and reaches the lock the
same way. And it no longer passes `index=0` when it builds the start action,
because migration 71 drops that column.

564 tests pass. `npm run lint` and `npm run build` are clean, and the CSS
bundle is 56.71 kB, which is the pre-merge size plus main's new rules.

Claude 1ed8646a04 Let a long change chip wrap instead of running off the phone
A chip's value carried `white-space: nowrap`, which was there so a signed
number never breaks between its sign and its digits. It was applied to every
value a chip can hold, and most of them are phrases rather than numbers: a
refusal reason, "no change — at its limit", and the whole new value of a
free-text stat, which is a sentence the AI wrote rather than a word.

An unbreakable phrase sets the chip's minimum width to the width of the
phrase, so `max-width: 100%` capped the box while the text kept painting past
the rounded border and off the screen. The chip row sits inside the story
text, which has nothing to scroll, so the page grew a horizontal scrollbar
instead: a 87-character status value measured 470px against a 320px phone.

The nowrap now applies only to the signed number, under `chg-num`. Every other
value wraps inside its chip, which is what the surrounding `overflow-wrap`
already did for the label.

Measured in Chromium at 320, 360, 390 and 430px wide: that same value paints
between 55px and 165px outside its chip before, and 0px after, with the page
no longer scrolling sideways. The number chip stays on one line.

Claude 91907a30bd Name every stat in the guide by the path the AI has to write
The referee refused `npc.<id>.status` on a character that has a status stat
under another name, and the refusal was right: the model was reaching for a
path the guide never gave it.

The guide is the fixed list of everything a scenario tracks, and it named
stats in prose. A player stat and a world stat both read as a bare name, and
an NPC's stats read as the display name plus the stat — "Trainer Milo
active_status". The model had to turn that back into `npc.milo.active_status`
itself, and in the Pokemon demo five other characters carry a stat called
`status`, so the path it built was `npc.milo.status`. The live values do state
the paths, but only for the NPCs a scene has mentioned, so an NPC off screen
was addressable only by guesswork.

Each line now leads with the path: `player.potions`, `npc.milo.active_status`,
`flags.sandstorm_active`. An NPC's header is written even when it has no
description, because it is the one line that ties a display name to its id.
`EMIT_RULE` points at the guide for paths rather than at the live values
alone.

A free-text stat is marked `(free text)` beside its path, which is the wording
`EMIT_RULE` already used to describe it — the guide had been writing "free
text" at the end of the line instead. Such a stat now also gets a line when it
has no description, where before it was dropped and the model was left to send
a number for a stat that holds a string.

Claude 41ed2f63b5 Put the shared state back when a turn is deleted
Deleting an AI reply removed the text and left everything the turn did to the
numbers standing. `script_state` and `world_state` belong to the adventure
rather than to the node, so the row going away takes nothing back. Undo, retry,
a take and a branch switch all restore them; this endpoint never did.

The visible symptom was the cooldown clock, which lives in
`world_state._meta.last_changed` and holds a depth. A deleted turn left its
depth there, and the turn played in its place is played at that same depth, so
the referee refused the change as one that had happened this very turn — on a
turn the story no longer contains. Delete the reply because you did not like
the stat change it proposed, press Continue, and the same change comes back
marked "changed too recently". A script's state stacked the same way: the gold
a deleted turn paid out stayed paid, and the replacement turn paid it again.

The restore reads the tip's own outcome rather than the deleted node's
neighbour, which is what `switch` does. Deleting the newest turn then rewinds
to the node in front of it, and deleting one from the middle of the story
restores the state the adventure is already in, so the text goes and the
numbers stay.

The endpoint now takes the turn lock too, for the reason undo takes it: it
writes the shared state, and a turn that is still generating is about to write
it as well.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 f1bebe18d0 Drop the eight legacy columns SP8 left behind
Migrations 66 to 73 drop `actions.index`, `variants`, `variant_index`,
`variant_count`, `state_before`, and `world_state_before`, plus
`adventures.memory_cursor` and `summary_cursor`. `index` is a keyword in
SQLite, so migration 71 quotes it.

Nothing outside the migrations read these. `models.py`, `schemas.py`, and
`ACTION_LIST_COLUMNS` lose the same eight fields, `Adventure.actions` orders
by `id`, and `attempts.renumber`, `context.history.max_action_index`, and
`nodes.next_index` are deleted.

Two changes keep the migration replayable on a `create_all` database:

- `_split_variants_into_siblings` wrote through the live ORM table, so it
  stopped compiling once migration 66 removed five of its columns. It now
  writes through `_ACTIONS_AT_60`, a frozen `Table` with its own `MetaData`.
- Five data passes read columns these migrations drop. Each now calls
  `_has_columns` and returns early when the columns are absent.

`bootstrap` takes a `through` version so a migration test can stop at the
schema it asserts on.

555 tests pass, up from 549. Eight of the new cases assert each column is
gone after a real schema-45 database migrates all the way.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 e0bf2b61d9 Add a useDebouncedSave hook and delete Settings.stream
Two items from Stage 2 of `plan/17-refactor.md`.

`frontend/src/hooks/useDebouncedSave.js` replaces three copies of the same
debounce. `PlotPanel` and `ScenarioEditor` held identical per-key timer maps.
`ScriptEditor` held a single shared timer, so editing two fields inside the
same 600 ms window canceled the first save. The hook gives every key its own
timer, which fixes that.

`Settings.stream` was dead state. Nothing read it and every turn streams. This
removes the column, both schema fields, and adds migration 65 to drop it. It is
item S1 in `docs/self-review.md`.

Migration 65 needs a new guard. `_column_already_gone` is the counterpart to
`_column_already_there`: `create_all` builds the current schema, which is
already missing every dropped column, so a fixture that stamps an old version
and replays would fail on a column that is not there.

Verified: 549 backend tests pass, lint and build are clean, and migration 65
runs both ways, once against a database that still has the column and once
against one that does not.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 2c57b1ceab Remove three kinds of duplication in the backend
Stage 2, items 1, 4, and 5 of `plan/17-refactor.md`.

**One path resolver in `worldstate`.** `apply_delta` and `apply_override` routed
`flags.<name>`, `milestones.<id>`, `world.<stat>`, `player.<stat>`, and
`npc.<id>.<stat>` with parallel code, about 100 lines each. `_resolve` now says
what a path points at and returns either a target or the rejection to report.
Each function keeps its own write rule, because the rules genuinely differ: an
override sets a number rather than adding to it, ignores `cooldown`,
`max_delta_per_turn`, and the rule that a counter only counts up, and can un-set
a milestone.

A differential check ran both implementations over 3960 payloads: twenty paths,
fourteen values, three starting states, plus every three-path combination. The
results are identical except that 674 rejections from `apply_override` now carry
a `fix` string. `apply_delta` already worded those, and the world-state editor
renders them, so an override that names an unknown flag now explains itself the
way a delta does.

**`sse`, `SSE_HEADERS`, and `turn_error` move to `app/sse.py`.** Two routers
stream, and `chat.py` had to import from `routers.adventures` to reach them.

**`get_adventure_or_404` becomes the `current_adventure` dependency.** All 32
handlers repeated the call as their first statement. The ownership check now
reads in the signature and runs before the body. FastAPI caches a dependency for
one request, so the handler's `db` is the session the adventure came from.

The generated OpenAPI document is byte-identical except on `rename_branch`,
where `branch_id` is now listed before `adventure_id`, because that handler no
longer names `adventure_id` itself. Parameter order in the document is
cosmetic.

Six tests in `test_state_revert.py` call `undo_turn` and `retry_action`
directly rather than over HTTP. They pass the adventure they already hold
instead of an id.

549 tests pass.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 0623dd8b78 Split Play.jsx into a directory of twelve files
`frontend/src/pages/Play.jsx` was 2280 lines holding 27 components. It is now
`frontend/src/pages/Play/`: `index.jsx` with the page component, five panels,
two drawers, the reports, the take pager, the refresh dialog, and the shared
formatting helpers.

Every line moved verbatim. A coverage check confirms every non-blank line of
the original appears exactly once, in order, across the twelve files, and a
name-resolution check confirms every identifier each file references is defined
or imported there, with no unused imports.

The line split stranded a comment at six of the boundaries. A leading comment
sits above the section it describes, so each cut left one at the end of the file
before it. All six moved to the section they describe, rewritten in the house
style.

`usePlaySession.js` is not here. The page component still owns all of the
session state. Moving eighteen `useState` calls and seven `useEffect` calls is a
rewrite rather than a move, and no frontend test would catch a mistake in it
today, so it waits for Stage 5.

Four stand-in providers under `backend/tools/` now define `last_usage = None`.
The turn engine reads that attribute after every call, and the fixtures never
defined it, so `tools.tree_fixture` crashed. That break predates this branch.

Verified by 549 passing tests, a clean `npm run lint` and `npm run build`, and
by driving the Play screen: the story view, all five panels, both drawers
including the world-state edit form, the branch map, the refresh dialog, and the
take pager stepping onto a take that lives on another branch. No console errors.

`frontend/src/index.css` held 2865 lines. It is now an import list, and each
section is its own file under `frontend/src/styles/`.

The order is unchanged. Two comments in the file already recorded that the
cascade depends on it: several selectors in the tome section win only because
they come after the base card rules, and the 720px query overrides the whole
desktop design. The built CSS bundle is byte-identical before and after, at
56686 bytes.

The plan asked for each `@media` block to move next to the rules it overrides.
That is not done, and should not be. Moving a rule past a later rule of equal
specificity changes which one wins, and there is no frontend test that would
catch it. The 720px block is now `responsive.css`, imported last.

`backend/app/routers/adventures.py` held 2353 lines and 35 endpoints. It is now
a package of 14 modules, the largest 443 lines.

The split moves text rather than rewriting it. An AST comparison against the
old file confirms all 86 definitions are identical, and the OpenAPI schema
still lists the same 35 operations.

Names a test replaces now live in `turns.py` only, and other modules reach them
as `turns.<name>`. Rebinding a re-exported alias changes the alias and leaves
every caller reading the original, so the package root does not re-export them.
A patch aimed at the old target raises `AttributeError` instead of passing while
doing nothing. Tests and the fixtures in `backend/tools/` say
`adventures.turns.<name>`.

The same rule keeps the turn lock working. One module owns `_active_turns`, so
one lock guards one set.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 32cd7c1077 Give the tests one setup instead of thirty-five
Every test module carried the same eight-line prologue redirecting the
database to a temp file. Only the first one to be imported ever took
effect: `app.database` reads `AIDND_DB_PATH` at import and builds `engine`
from it once, so by the time the second module ran the engine already
existed. The other 34 copies created a temp file that nothing opened and
nothing deleted, and leaked one per module per run.

`conftest.py` now does it once, which is early enough because pytest
imports conftest before any test module. It also deletes the file when the
run ends. The tests still share one database, exactly as they already did:
each `client` fixture calls `create_all` on setup and `drop_all` on
teardown, so no test sees another test's rows.

`tests/fakes.py` holds the one `ScriptedProvider`. Nine modules each had a
copy, and the copies had drifted into four feature sets, so a test that
needed to raise a provider error had to be written in one of the files
whose copy supported that. The shared one is the superset. The two
`FakeProvider` copies were the same class with a fixed reply, so they use
it too. `test_chat.py` keeps its own, which implements `chat` rather than
`generate` and records what it was constructed with.

An autouse fixture resets the fake's class state between tests, so a stale
reply list can no longer reach the next test.

435 lines out of the suite. 549 tests pass. Verified live by sabotage:
breaking the shared fake fails 13 tests across four modules.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 b1772c6e21 Plan the readability refactor, and clear the tree for it
Phase 17 splits the four files that hold most of the code, finishes the
schema migration SP8 left half done, and stops the published guide from
drifting away from its Markdown source. `plan/17-refactor.md` carries the
plan and the progress table, and `plan/STATUS.md` points at it.

Stage 0 is hygiene only. Both abandoned worktrees are gone, which freed
about 104 MB. Removing `sp7-tree-ui` needed one extra step: a Vite dev
server had been running out of it since 2026-08-18, holding
`frontend/.vite` open and owning port 5173, and serving a tree 54 commits
behind `main`. The three stale `.db` files are deleted; `data.db` is not.

`AIDND_TRUSTED_PROXY_HOPS` is now documented. It was read at `limits.py:55`
and named in no `.env.example`, README, or blueprint. It sets how many
proxy hops the rate limiter trusts in `X-Forwarded-For`, so a deployment
that adds a hop without setting it gets the bucket-rotation bypass back.

The 19 squash-landed branches are still there. `git branch -D` is blocked

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 9398c13da5 Delete seeded scenarios no seed file claims any more
`previous_titles` stops a rename stranding the row it left behind, but the rows
already stranded still had to be deleted by hand on every deployment. The
seeder now removes them on the next boot, which retires the stale "Road to the
Champion" demo without a database console.

Only rows with a NULL owner and `is_public` are considered, and a player's own
scenario is neither, so nothing anybody created is reachable. An adventure
started from a deleted demo survives: `adventures.scenario_id` is `ON DELETE
SET NULL`, and the adventure holds its own copies of the cards and scripts, so
it loses only the inherited cover art.

Two cases skip the sweep, because neither is an instruction to remove live
content: a seed file that fails to parse claims no title, and an empty seed
directory reads as a packaging failure.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 c2d3f0d8b9 Show the starter adventure the artwork of the demo it came from
An adventure has no cover art of its own and inherits its scenario's, and a
bundle carries no scenario id, because an id means nothing in another database.
The starter card therefore fell back to a monogram tile while the demo beside
it showed the Pokeball.

The starter file names its source under `scenarioTitle`, and the copy is linked
to the seeded scenario with that title. If no seed answers to the name, the
adventure keeps a NULL `scenario_id`, which is the state every imported bundle
is in and costs only the artwork.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 ef4da7fda2 Keep the local Claude test rig, and record what it found
`backend/tools/claude_shim.py` serves an OpenAI-compatible endpoint backed by
the local `claude` command line tool, so a demo can be played against a real
model with no API key. Each request spawns one `claude --print` process, which
suits the turn engine: the app assembles the whole prompt every turn and
expects a stateless endpoint.

Playing the Pokemon demo through it made all five of the world-state changes in
`plan/16` work, and the refusal loop ran end to end for the first time: turn 3
clamped to nothing, turn 4's assembled prompt carried the correction verbatim,
and the model's next delta was right. Two failures previously blamed on the
code were the demo model. One is a schema fault and is still open: Milo's three
Pokemon share one `active_hp` stat, so a switch leaves the newcomer at 0 HP.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 6cbf6d996f Give every new guest an adventure that is already played
An empty account gives a visitor nothing to read, and the daily demo turns are
limited, so learning what the app does cost one of them. `app/starter.py` now
copies a shipped export bundle into each new guest at the point the row is
created. The bundle is two exchanges of the Pokemon demo, which ends on a
knockout and shows an applied change, a refused one, and a milestone.

The guest row is committed before the copy is attempted, so a failure there
still leaves them with an account, and the copy runs inside a savepoint.

The row building that `POST /adventures/import` did inline moved into
`bundle.materialize`, which both callers use. The rate and size checks stayed
in the endpoint: the starter writes a file the server ships, so it has no
untrusted list to cap.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 ae39514d1e Name the Pokemon demo, and land a seed rename on its own row
`seed.py` matches a seed file to its scenario by title, so renaming one
inserted a second public scenario and stranded the first. The stranded row
stays public forever and has to be deleted by hand on every deployment, which
is what happened to "Road to the Champion". A seed file now lists its old
titles under `previous_titles`, and the rename updates the existing row.

The cover art is a PNG data URI. `app/images.py` accepts raster formats only,
because SVG can carry script and the bytes are served from the app's own
origin, so an SVG stores but yields an empty `image_url`.
`tools/make_pokeball.py` draws the ball with `zlib` alone.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 ab546d6f3c Ask the Pokemon demo for changes, not for totals
The model sent a total rather than a change for almost every number:
`npc.ivysaur.hp: 96`, `npc.milo.active_hp: 88`, `player.potions: 2`. Because
every `hp` starts at its maximum, each one clamped back to where it started, and
the potion count rose when the player spent one.

`EMIT_RULE` does say "deltas (not new totals)", but the scenario contradicted it
at closer range. `milo.active_hp`'s description said "Reset this to the
newcomer's full HP", which asks for an absolute and is injected every turn. The
bullets said "drop the HP, and raise it when healed", naming a direction but no
sign. Five HP descriptions said only whose HP it was. The one line that said
"not a delta" covered `player.active_pokemon`, so naming the exception made the
rule look optional. `pokemon_fainted` is the control: its description says "add
1 each time", and it is the only number that behaved.

Every stat description now states the sign, and the lead-in gives a worked
example. `milo.active_hp.max_delta_per_turn` goes 65 to 98, because a switch
moves that stat a full bar from 0 and the old cap made the reset unreachable in
one turn.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 1988979aeb Store the refusals, so the chips and the model can see them
`world_delta_of` wrote `delta` and `applied` only. Every consumer that tells a
refused change from a successful one reads the two lists it dropped:
`Action.world_changes` marks a clamped chip from `clamped` and builds its
refusal chips from `rejected`, and `worldstate.refusals` reads both. So no chip
could report a limit, no rejection chip could appear, and no correction ever
reached the next prompt. The three mechanisms merged last session were live in
the code and unreachable in production.

Found by playing the Pokemon demo. Turn 3's snapshot held two clamped entries
with correct `fix` text, both chips came back `clamped: false`, and turn 4's
prompt carried no correction, so the model repeated the same mistake.

The 21 tests passed because `action()` built the column by hand with every list
present. It now fills the column through `world_delta_of`. Removing the two new
lines fails 9 of the 23 tests; that was checked by sabotage.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 abbfc61263 Correct the stale plan docs and add this session's handover
`plan/STATUS.md` pointed at SP9 as the next step and called it unmerged and
undeployed. SP9 and SP10 are both on `main`. They landed as squash merges, so
`git branch --no-merged` still lists their branches. The doc now points at SP8
and says to check `actions.parent_id` and commit `c0cd6fa` instead of the
branch list.

`plan/15-pokemon-demo-handover.md` named a cause for each of two bugs and both
causes were wrong. It carries a banner and inline corrections rather than a
rewrite, because the reasoning trap it fell into is worth keeping: the visible
evidence was "the number did not move", which reads as the model never trying.

`plan/16-world-state-refusals.md` records what the engine was actually doing,
the five changes, and a browser checklist. None of the UI work has been driven
in a browser.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 47c7800903 Report the world-state changes the engine refuses
`apply_delta` records three outcomes for every change the model sends:
`applied`, `clamped`, and `rejected`. Everything downstream read only
`applied`. A refused change reached the player as an ordinary chip, and
reached the model on the next turn as a change that had succeeded.

Five parts:

- `Action.world_changes` reads `clamped` and `rejected` beside `applied`.
  Accepted stats carry a `clamped` flag; refusals become `kind: "rejected"`
  entries. The `fix` key is present only when the engine wrote one, because
  this property runs for every action of every list response.
- The UI separates the three outcomes. A clamp to a standstill reads
  `no change - at its limit` on a dashed chip, a partial clamp is marked
  `(limited)`, and a rejection carries its reason. Dashed and dimmed rather
  than red: a refused change means the rules are working.
- The goals line names the milestone id, as `milestones.<id>`. The ids
  appeared nowhere in the prompt before, so the model could not send one.
- Each rejection, and each clamp that moved nothing, builds a `fix` string
  from the stat definition at the point of refusal. `render_refusals()`
  renders them into the next prompt above `EMIT_REMINDER`.
- `_history_text` replays `applied_delta()` instead of the sent delta, so a
  past turn's state block shows only what the engine accepted.

A clamp that reduced a change but still moved the value reports nothing. If
you tell a model its 80 damage became 30, it can treat the shortfall as a
debt and send the remaining 50 next turn, which is the swing
`max_delta_per_turn` prevents.

In the demo scenario, `pokemon_left` becomes `pokemon_fainted`
(`type: counter`, `initial: 0`). Starting at the ceiling turned a wrong-signed
delta into a silent no-op; counting up puts the wrong sign on the counter
rule, which refuses it out loud. The instructions also now ask for
`world.turn`, which sat at 0 for a whole playtest.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 cf6161a5ee Keep the take you wrote below on screen while the turn plays
Writing below a take is the one moment the server is told which take is
meant, and it obeys before a token is generated. The transcript only
learned that from the resync after the turn, so clearing the preview at
Send time put the replaced take back on screen for the whole turn — and
left it there for good if the resync never landed: a turn that errored, a
lost connection, a tab closed mid-generation. The story then read one way
and reloading the page read another, which is what a player reported.

The chosen take is pinned instead of dropped. Same text override as a
preview, but it does not truncate the story below it, because the turn
being played goes there; the pager's ordinal follows it so the number
matches the words above it. The pin is released only when a re-read
actually succeeds, so a failed read leaves the correct take on screen
rather than reverting to the one it replaced.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 a408c7b6f7 Lay the prompt out so the endpoint can cache most of it
Prompt caching bills on a shared prefix: the endpoint reuses the request up
to the first byte that differs from last time and no further. The live
world-state block sat third from the top of the system message, so every turn
re-priced the instructions, the plot essentials and the whole story history
underneath it. The retrieved memories and the rewritten summary did it again.

Everything fixed is emitted first now, and everything that moves goes after
the history, ordered least-volatile first — which is also where recency serves
it best, the reasoning that already put the emit reminder last. The three tail
sections that are last for their own reasons stay last. The moved sections are
still charged to the token budget; only their position changed.

Two smaller halves of the same problem. OpenRouter serves a model from
whichever upstream is free and each upstream holds its own cache, so a
deepseek model now names deepseek as its preferred upstream — a preference,
not a restriction, so a turn still runs if that upstream is down. And the
endpoint's usage block is read back off the response and kept per attempt, so
the hit rate shows up in Insights and the debug log instead of being assumed.

The item that outlives the commit gets its own paragraph:
`AIDND_ANALYTICS_EMAILS` is `sync: false`, so nothing in the repo can set it
and the dashboard stays invisible to everybody until it is filled in by hand
in the Render dashboard. Worth saying plainly that collection runs regardless
— the counters fill either way, so setting it late costs no data, which is the
thing that decides whether this is urgent.

The gate paragraph below it loses its closing sentence, which said the same
thing in the same words.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 041f9e25f3 Count the visits, and say whether anyone got anywhere
A hosted demo raises a question a local app never does: is anyone using it,
and do they reach the part that matters? `/analytics` answers it — visitors,
pages, referrers, countries, devices, which shared scenarios get played, turns
and demo-key spend, API and turn errors, and a funnel from visited to played a
turn to signed up.

Not a third-party script, for reasons specific to this one. The CSP allows
`script-src 'self'`, so a tracker means loosening it; adblockers eat the
popular ones, which silently biases exactly the technical audience this
project gets shown to; and none of them can see the measurement that actually
matters here, which is a turn, not a pageview.

**A visit is a write and never a read.** After the 189x egress fix it would be
perverse to add a feature that reads rows per request, so counts accumulate in
a process-local dict and flush every 60s as UPSERTs. Storage is a generic
`(day, metric, label) -> hits` counter, so measuring something new later costs
a constant rather than a migration, plus one row per visitor per day for the
funnel flags. Every dashboard query is a GROUP BY returning tens of rows
however much traffic sits behind it; a month reads back in a few kilobytes.
The buffer's cost is that a hard restart can lose up to a minute — the flusher
also runs on shutdown, and a tier that sleeps when idle sleeps on an empty
buffer anyway.

**The counters are anonymous; the access log beside them is not, on purpose.**
A visitor is `HMAC(secret, "visitor:<user id>")` truncated to 32 chars —
one-way, so `analytics_daily` and `analytics_visitor_days` cannot be joined
back to `users`, and keyed, so no client can compute one. Story content never
reaches that module, and the only content it ever names is a seeded public
scenario's title; a player's own titles are theirs. `accesslog.py` is the
identifying half and is a separate module writing a separate table so that
separation is a property of the code rather than a convention: `access_events`
records sessions, sign-ins, registrations and failed attempts with address,
email and device, read on a second tab of the same page behind the same gate.

Both halves are gated on `AIDND_ANALYTICS_EMAILS`, not `POWER_USERS`. An
unmetered tester is not automatically someone who should see the traffic. The
route 404s and the nav link is absent for everyone else, the same treatment
AI Chat gets; unset in a hosted deploy means nobody sees it, including me.

Three things came out of building it that a test would not have suggested.

**A failed turn is an HTTP 200 with a bad ending.** The status-code middleware
cannot see one, so a demo whose model had started refusing every request would
look perfectly healthy from outside. All five SSE error paths in
`_generate_turn` now go through a `turn_error()` helper that counts on the way
out. Error buckets elsewhere are labelled by the matched route template rather
than the requested path — one bucket per endpoint instead of one per adventure
id, and, the reason it isn't merely tidier, an unmatched path is entirely
attacker-chosen, so labelling by it would let anyone mint rows.

**The funnel counts people, not clicks.** A player who starts six adventures
is one person who started an adventure. That is the whole reason the
per-visitor-day table exists; its flags only ever turn on, and `is_new` is
settled by the first write of a visitor's first day.

**The tests run on SQLite and production is Neon.** A flush that raises is
caught and logged, so a dialect mistake in the UPSERTs would have stayed
invisible until the dashboard quietly never filled.
`test_the_upserts_compile_for_postgres` compiles both statements against the
Postgres dialect without connecting to one.

Two things this leans on elsewhere. `limits._client_ip` is now public
`client_ip`: the access log needs the same answer, and two functions both
deciding which hop is the caller's is how one of them ends up trusting a
header it shouldn't. And the cleanup sweeper now starts if *either* job has
work — a deployment can keep every guest forever and still want its
visitor-day rows aged out.

No migration. Both tables are new and `bootstrap()` calls `create_all` on
existing databases too, the route `branches` took in Phase 14, so
`LATEST_VERSION` is still 64.

497 tests green, frontend lint and build clean, driven by hand against a
synthetic 90-day fixture at 1568px. The narrow-screen layout follows the
existing 720px block but is unverified: `resize_window` is ignored on a
maximized Chrome and `frame-ancestors 'none'` rules out checking it in a sized
iframe. Also repaired here: a rename in test_ratelimit_hardening.py had run
through the test names themselves, leaving `testclient_ip_*` — still collected
by pytest, which is why it passed unnoticed.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 3b9e6b3d50 Give the length hint a floor, not just a wall
A ceiling alone is a one-sided instruction, and models read it in opposite
directions. A verbose one is held back by it; a terse one has nothing to act
on except "write only as much as the moment needs -- a typical turn is much
shorter" and collapses to two paragraphs. Same prompt, wildly different turn
lengths depending on which model is behind it.

State a floor as well, so the guidance is a band. The two bounds are
deliberately asymmetric -- "must not exceed" for the wall the endpoint
enforces, "should not stop short of" for the floor -- so neither reads as a
number to hit, which is the property the earlier A/B says decides whether
this hint helps or hurts. "Prefer the lower end" inherits the anti-overshoot
job the deleted "much shorter" line was doing, but now with a number under
it, so a terse model lands on the floor instead of at forty words.

Below MIN_LENGTH_FLOOR_WORDS the floor is dropped and the tight-cap wording
is left byte-identical: at a tight cap a short turn is the correct turn, and
that phrasing is the one measured to keep the state block alive (0/6
truncations at cap 250 against 2/6 unhinted). So this only moves loose caps.
MAX_LENGTH_FLOOR_WORDS keeps the share from demanding 555 words minimum at
cap 2400 -- a big cap means long turns are allowed, not compulsory.

Shipped without an A/B run, deliberately. Two things to watch live: whether a
stated range invites landing mid-range on verbose models (drop the share to
~0.25 if so), and whether the state block still survives -- nothing reads
finish_reason yet, so truncation is silent.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 40d2555f84 Say what the app is now, everywhere it is published
The README, the project page and the engineering guide all describe a linear
story. The tree shipped two days ago. Every published surface is a phase
behind, and the guide is not merely behind — it is wrong in a way that costs a
reader time.

Its 2.2 was "Two coordinate systems, and the bug class they create", and it
explained the codebase through position_of_index, note_action_removed and
settled_story_actions. All three were deleted in SP3. 2.3 explained retry
through Action.variants and state_before. Somebody reading either would go
looking for machinery that is not there, which is worse than a gap.

So 2.2 is now "The story is a tree", written at the depth 1.2 and 1.3 are
written at: the seven bugs that turned out to be one bug, the lineage clause
and the two properties that make fork count free, why takes group by parent_id
rather than by coordinate, cursors becoming anchors, and a closing list of what
the design is honest about. 2.3 is rewritten around state_after and takes, and
1.1 and 1.5 follow, because the pipeline no longer snapshots before the call
and the memory bank no longer holds an action back.

The numbers were simply old: 151 tests where there are 440, 37 migrations where
there are 64, twelve phases where there are fourteen. They appear in four
places across the README, the project page's stat tiles and the guide's results
table. The measured branch cost — 103 B, and 1.007x the page load of the same
story flat — is added beside the egress and turn-cost figures it belongs with,
since it is the number that answers "what does branching cost me".

Three screenshots, on a new tools/shots_fixture.py: the Bandit Camp demo driven
through eight written turns with written deltas, three discarded takes forked
onto branches of their own, one off a branch so the map has to nest. Same
reason tree_fixture.py is committed — the shots have to be reproducible and the
frontend still has no test runner. play-world-state.jpg is reshot because it
predates the entire tree UI; the map and the branches panel are new.

Note for next time: docs/guide.html is hand-written, not generated from the
Markdown, so every guide edit is two edits in two vocabularies. Both files were
checked for tag balance and both pages rendered locally before this landed.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 c8e081e9d6 Draw the tree the branch list can only spell out
The Branches panel says which lines exist. It cannot say where they parted
or how much story each one is, because those are the two numbers `GET
/branches` already answers and a list has nowhere to put them. A ⌗ See the
tree button opens a map: one horizontal lane per branch, running from the
moment it left its parent to the moment it ends, joined to the parent by an
elbow at the fork. The horizontal axis is the story's own clock, so two
lanes at the same x are at the same moment and a short branch reads as
short.

This is a branch map, not the per-node map SP7 refused, and that is the
whole reason it was cheap. Lanes are bounded by branch count, not node
count, so the 600-node windowing problem never arrives. It reads the single
request the rail already made and nothing else.

`branches.js` holds the tree maths and `BranchMap.jsx` the drawing. Play.jsx
gives up its private copies of branchLabel and orderBranches: the panel and
the map now label and order a branch through the same functions, so a branch
cannot be called two things by the two views. The three operations stay in
BranchPanel and are passed down, and `run` answers whether it worked so
neither view clears a half-typed name on a refusal.

Three things came out of driving it, none of which a test could have seen.
`clientWidth` counts the canvas padding the ResizeObserver leaves out, so
the first paint drew an svg 24px wider than its box — and the observer's
initial observation never arrived here, so dropping the seed left the map
never drawing at all. Both are needed and the seed subtracts the padding.
Only the name was being clipped, not the meta line under it, so a late fork
ran its text off the right edge; both are clipped now, and a lane starting
in the right third hangs its labels back over the fork, where its own band
guarantees nothing to collide with. And the delete rule lived in the server
and in the map but not in the list, which offered Delete on a branch the
head was forked from and answered with a toast from the server's 400.
`headLineage` is the client's copy of that rule and both views use it; the
server stays the authority.

`tools/tree_fixture.py` is the counterpart to `tools/branch_fixture.py` —
four branches at three fork depths, one forked off a fork. With no frontend
test runner it is the whole of the map's coverage, and it exists to be
looked at. Nothing in the backend changed; the 440 tests pass unmoved.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 ff190d2453 Edit the take you are reading, not the one it replaced
The pager parks a turn on take 2 of 4 and the row draws that take's words,
but the row itself is keyed by the live node — the take the story tells. The
edit button seeded from that node and saved back to it, so opening the editor
on a 2/4 turn showed 4/4's text and saving overwrote 4/4. The take being read
was never reachable.

It has an id of its own, carried on the preview, and the edit endpoint takes
any row by id whether or not the path runs through it. So an edit opened over
a preview carries the take's id, the transcript matches the editor to the row
through the preview rather than the node, and the saved text goes back into
the preview because there is no row in `actions` to put it in. The pager
caches the take list it fetched, so it is told to drop it — otherwise
stepping away and back showed the words from before the edit. Leaving the
take at all drops a half-typed edit with it.

The fork button had the same seed and now takes its text from the screen too.
Its id stays the live node's: a take branches just above the turn, and the
server only accepts a turn that is on the path.

The tests are on the promise the fix leans on — a take is an ordinary row to
the edit endpoint, addressed by its own id, and the group listing says so
afterwards. That already held; nothing in the backend changed.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 c0cd6fa7ce Stop a full memory bank from shutting itself
Eviction ranked on use_count first. A memory written this turn has never
been used, so once every survivor in a full bank had been retrieved even
once, the newborn was the lowest row in the bank and was marked forgotten
by the same post-turn run that wrote it — one pass after the one that
embedded it, before retrieval ever saw it.

That state never ends, because counts only go up. The bank an adventure
happened to hold when it first filled is the bank it keeps for good, and
everything the story does afterwards is summarized, evicted and never
ranked. A test now plays four turns against a full bank and asserts the
survivors are the new memories, not the opening ones; before this it kept
the opening three and forgot all four.

Order on last-touch instead, with the count as the tiebreak. A new memory
carries the newest timestamp there is, so it is the safest row in the bank
rather than the most doomed, and it has until something outlives it to
prove itself — the "protect the newest" behaviour falls out of the
ordering rather than being a count of rows to spare. Little is given up:
a memory that is genuinely used stays recently-used by being retrieved,
so the two orders only disagree about memories that mattered once and
have not been wanted since.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 c4936f75f5 Fix two things only a person clicking could find
Driving SP9 by hand found both, and neither was reachable from a test that
did not exist yet.

**The pager arrived one page load late.** A retry's reply *is* the second take
of its turn, so it comes back needing a pager -- but the SSE stream builds its
own ActionOut and so never got the annotation. The numbers only appeared once
the page was reloaded, which is the one moment nobody reloads. That is the
third place this codebase builds an action payload a different way; the other
two were patched when `take_count` was added, and this one was missed because
nothing read it from the wire.

**"> You > You follow the pulse down the corridor."** The editor is seeded from
the stored text, which is already the formatted form -- the same text plain
edit puts in the box and writes back verbatim. Running it through the formatter
again doubles the prefix, so `run_player_turn` learns `preformatted`.

And the question the driving raised: does the shared state follow the branch?
`test_take_state.py` answers it with a script that adds ten gold a turn, which
is the clearest possible witness -- a take that stacks instead of replacing
says so in one digit. Three of its five fail with `roll_back_before` removed;
the other two pass either way on purpose, one being the premise and one going
through `stand_on`, which has restored state since SP5.

Confirmed against the running app too, on the HP-script demo: a path crossing
three branches carried exactly the damage of the nine AI nodes on it, and none
of the 66 points sitting on takes those branches never told.

433 tests.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 6c38b25439 Say what the vacuum measured, and what SP7 got wrong
The 11 MB the vacuum gave back against a mid-hundreds guess, and the reason:
the heap is 1.7 MB and the rest is TOAST, so a migration touching small
columns bloats the heap and reuses the toast pointers. The rule keeps its
cost estimate rather than its size, and SP8 is the other shape -- it drops
toasted columns, and DROP COLUMN frees nothing until a VACUUM FULL.

And the handover moves to SP9: what a hand-driven SP7 turned out to be wrong
about, the three findings from fixing it, and the fact that the fix itself has
not been driven by hand either.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 f9b836fc0b Put the pager back, and let any turn be played again
SP7 replaced the pager with chips, on the grounds that a chip could also offer
"take this path" while a pager could only step. Driving it by hand said
otherwise, and the reason is worth keeping: the chip meant two different
things depending on where the reader was standing -- a real switch at the tip,
a preview needing a second button above it further back. Two meanings in one
control is what made the tree unusable.

So: one control that does one thing. Stepping reads a take and nothing else,
and it tells the server nothing, because reading is not a decision. The
transcript below a take that is not live simply ends -- such a take is a leaf
by construction, since whatever was played after the turn was played after the
take that *is* live. The decision is made by writing, and `after_id` carries it.

One step does reach the server and is still not a fork: a take with a story of
its own lives on its own branch, so going there is a branch switch and only the
server can say what is underneath. `branch_id` on the take is what tells the
two apart without asking first.

And a fork button on every turn but the opening. On the AI's it regenerates; on
your own it opens the text so you can say something else. What the story made
of the old take is kept, on the line it was written on.

`selectVariant` and `forkFromAttempt` leave the client. Both endpoints stay --
tested, and `stand_on` is shared with the write path -- but the pager needs
neither.

426 backend tests; lint and build clean. Not yet driven by hand: the frontend
still has no test runner, so this needs the `--keep` fixture and eyes, exactly
as SP7 did.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 ea7336e5d3 Let any turn be played again, not just the newest
`retry` only ever saw the last action: mid-story there was no way to ask for
another take at all. Now the take endpoint takes either kind of node, and the
kind decides what happens -- an AI turn regenerates, a player turn takes the
text supplied. The client asks the same way for both.

The tip is the only case that needs no branch, and only for an AI turn, where
the takes are still leaves nobody has built on. That is the existing retry,
reached by another road. Everywhere else `branch_at` leaves the path just
before the turn so the story after it keeps the take it was written for.

Both paths roll the shared state back to before the turn ran, which the fork
endpoint was already doing and the player-take path was not -- a script would
otherwise have stacked this take's output mutations on the one being replaced.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 c3c9b310eb Put the pager's numbers on the page
`2/4` needs the shape of a turn's take group for every message on screen.
Asking `attempts.group` per row would put a query behind each one -- the exact
cost `variant_count` was cached to avoid, and the reason SP8 could not just
drop that column and be done. So one query per page, keyed on the parents the
page mentions, and the count and ordinal land on the rows before they are
serialised.

`take_count` / `take_index` rather than reusing the old pair, because they do
not mean the same thing: the old ones cache a coordinate's siblings and say 0
for a turn nobody retook, these count the *turn's* takes across whatever
branches they ended up on and say 1/1. SP8 still drops `variant_count` and
`variant_index`.

Two traps, one of them mine. `parent_id` was not in ACTION_LIST_COLUMNS, so
reading it off a windowed row would have been a lazy load per action -- an
N+1 hidden behind the thing `load_only` exists to prevent. And the adventure
GET does not build `ActionOut` at all: it hands the window to the relationship
with `set_committed_value` and lets Pydantic walk it, so patching the three
places that do build ActionOut missed the one path every page load takes.
The test caught it by reading the wire instead of the helper.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 2726840c60 Let a player's own turn be played again
Retry has always given an AI turn another take. Nothing gave one to the
message the player wrote, so the only way to change something you had typed
was to overwrite it -- destructively, losing whatever the story made of it.
That is the half of the tree the player asked for first, and it never existed:
`POST /actions/{id}/fork` answers 400 unless a second take is already there,
so "branch from here" was not a thing the API could do.

`tree.branch_at` is the missing piece. `fork` moves a node that already exists
onto a line of its own; this is the same branch with nothing in it yet, for a
take that has not been written. The head lands one depth short, so the next
node written is the new take -- same depth, same parent, resolved from the
path by `place_action` without being told. The line being left keeps its node,
keeps it live, and keeps everything played after it. Nothing is copied.

Two things the tests said rather than confirmed. A player turn is never the
tip: the reply to it is, so retaking even the newest thing typed still owes a
branch, and the guard against forking for nothing only fires for a player
action with no reply under it. And player text is stored formatted, so a test
that compares it whole is testing the formatter.

421 tests.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 e126bda387 Make the branch happen when you write, not when you look
Stepping between takes used to be two controls and two meanings. At the tip a
chip switched; above the tip it only *previewed*, and taking that line needed a
second button next to it. Which one you got depended on where you were standing,
which is the thing that made the tree unusable when it was driven by hand.

So the server stops caring that anyone is looking. Reading a take the story
moved past changes nothing and creates nothing. `ActionCreate.after_id` names
the node a turn is played after, and naming a take the story left is the first
moment the player has said which line they mean -- so that is where the fork
happens, and only there.

`stand_on` is the old fork endpoint's body, lifted out whole. It already knew
the two cases and got them right: at the tip the takes are leaves nobody built
on, so it is a switch and no branch is made; past the tip the line being left
keeps every turn it has, so the take needs a branch. Both callers now share it,
which is the point -- a fork asked for and a fork arrived at are the same move.

Six tests. Five fail with the grouping reverted to the coordinate, and the one
that does not is deliberate: naming the tip in `after_id` must stay an ordinary
turn that forks nothing, which guards against over-correcting rather than
against the original bug. The nesting test passes both ways too and is kept for
what it says, not for what it catches -- a coordinate separates C1's takes from
C2's by accident, because the fork has already put them on different branches.

415 tests.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 6fa213f6db Group a turn's takes by their parent, not by where they sit
SP7 shipped a tree nobody could use. Driving it by hand found three things,
and the schema is what the third one needs.

A take forked onto its own branch leaves the coordinate its siblings are still
at. `attempts.group` filtered on (branch_id, depth), so that take read as the
only one of its turn -- 1/1 where the player is owed 1/3, with the other takes
unreachable from the line they were taken on. Nesting has the same shape from
the other side: takes under C1 and takes under C2 share a depth, and only the
parent says a pager under C2 reads 2/2 rather than counting C1's three too.

So `actions.parent_id`, and `group` keys on it. The alternative -- pointing a
branch's fork at a node instead of a depth, so a promoted take never moves --
was rejected: `lineage` exists so a read is an OR-clause per branch rather
than a walk up parent pointers, and moving the fork point changes path
resolution itself, which drags in cursors, memory depths and both bundle
formats. This column is read to group takes and for nothing else. One indexed
lookup, never a walk, and no read of the story changes.

Two writers had to learn it. `add_attempt` places a sibling by hand rather
than through `place_action`, and copies the parent, because a take belongs to
the turn it is a take *of*. `place_action` resolves it from the path for a
genuinely new node, which is the honest default.

And one reader had to be kept out of it. `delete_turn` meant "every attempt at
this coordinate"; the group spans branches now, so undoing a turn would have
deleted a take that another branch is telling. `attempts.on_branch` scopes it
back.

409 tests, unchanged from main and green -- a linear story has one take per
parent, so none of this is reachable until a second one exists. The migration
adds one column, backfills the linear case, and leaves NULL where it cannot
honestly place a row; `group` falls back to the coordinate there, which is the
rule those rows were written under. One `VACUUM FULL actions;` owed after
deploy.

STATUS still described SP7 as the newest thing and counted 396 tests. The
stack is open as PR #6 and the review pass is answered, so the pick-up
paragraph now says both, and part five records what the review found.

The part worth writing down is the finding that was turned down rather than
the eight that were fixed: a memory anchored to a node is meant to go when the
node goes, the root is the one exception, and the reason the exception is
narrow — protecting depth 0 outright would rebuild the dangling rows
forget_node exists to prevent.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 4af6e17406 Answer the review, and keep the opening node's bank
Nine findings from a review of the phase-14 stack. The one about a retry
withdrawing a memory is not a bug — a memory anchored to a node describes that
node, and it goes when the node goes. The root is the exception, and it is the
only one: migration 62 parked every memory written before memories had
coordinates on depth 0, so withdrawing the opening node would retire a whole
bank nobody attached there. A memory with no source range covers no story and
now stays; a summary that genuinely ends there is still withdrawn.

The rest are repairs.

* The adventure list quoted whichever attempt was written last rather than the
  one the story tells, so switching back left the index disagreeing with the
  page.
* A v1 import gave a typed memory no depth, rebuilding the NULL the migration
  exists to remove — invisible until the imported adventure forked.
* The action cap counted a v1 file's turns, and a turn expands into a row per
  saved attempt, so a file inside the cap could write a multiple of it.
* Forking a live node on a borrowed ancestor promoted a sibling on a branch the
  caller never named. It is a branch switch, and now says so.
* Switching attempts left the state, status and memory panels reading the
  previous take: the story does not change length, so nothing keyed on its
  length noticed. Same class as the branch-switch bug this phase already fixed.
* A retry after switching back numbered the new attempt into the middle of the
  group instead of the end.
* The cursor backfill numbered every action in the table once per adventure;
  correlated to the adventure being updated, it is an index lookup instead.
* Renaming a branch answered own_actions=0.

And one behaviour change recorded rather than repaired: script-visible history
and actionCount no longer count blank-text rows. That is the right shape and
there is no reading compatible with both, so plan/14 says so.

409 tests.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 2d38a162d4 Give every memory a node, and show only the ones on your path
A hand-written memory used to carry a NULL depth, described in the model as
"belongs to the adventure rather than to a path". That sounds harmless and
is not: a NULL is a coordinate no fork can cap, so a note typed on one line
followed the reader onto branches whose story it never described. It takes
the head now — the story you were reading when you wrote it — and obeys
exactly the rule a summarised memory obeys.

The unanchored escape clause in lineage.Path.clause existed for that single
case and is deleted rather than left unused. Its docstring argued that a
capped depth would drop a typed memory the moment its branch stopped being
the newest entry; anchoring answers the same worry better, because the
memory is not exempt from the path, it is on one.

The drawer now shows the path being read and nothing else, filtered by the
clause retrieval itself uses, so the bank you can see is the bank the model
can see. Nothing is stranded: a memory lives on a branch, switching to that
branch shows it, and deleting the branch deletes it. Pinning decides order,
the path decides existence.

Migration 62 lands existing NULL-depth memories at depth 0 of their branch
rather than at the tip. 0 is at or before every fork point, so every memory
stays visible from exactly the paths it is visible from today — nobody's
bank loses a row on deploy. The tip is the tidier-sounding choice and would
have emptied them out of every branch forked earlier than they were typed.

This supersedes the on_path flag and the "another branch" badge from
earlier today; anchoring makes them redundant, and they are removed.

Four tests changed because they asserted the old contract, not because
they broke. The one worth reading is the pair replacing
test_a_hand_written_memory_is_not_lost_at_the_first_fork: typed on shared
trunk it still survives a fork, and typed on ground the fork never
travelled it no longer follows you.

402 tests. Verified on tools/branch_fixture.py: each branch's drawer holds
its own memory and not the other's.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 1d1367ce3a Say which memories the model can actually see
Retrieval has been path-scoped since SP3: a memory on a branch this story
never travelled is never sent to the AI. The drawer listed every memory
alike, so on a fork you read "Fell down the cellar stairs; badly hurt" and
reasonably concluded the model knew it. It does not. That is worse than
either hiding the row or retrieving it — it is the screen claiming
something the engine contradicts.

Hiding them is not the answer either; that was the original comment's
point, and it stands. A memory nobody can list is a memory nobody can
delete, in a phase whose rule is that nothing is removed automatically.

So the whole bank still lists, and the rows off the current path are set
back, dashed, and labelled "another branch". MemoryOut.on_path carries it,
computed from the predicate retrieval itself uses rather than a second
spelling of the same idea — two spellings drift, and the failure mode here
is a badge that says the opposite of what the model gets. Pinning does not
override it: the path clause runs before pinning is considered.

The relationship is asymmetric and there is now a test that says so. A fork
borrows its ancestors, so a memory written on the parent is on the fork's
path too; the reverse never is. Worth pinning before somebody makes it
symmetric on the grounds that it looks wrong.

399 tests, three new, egress ceilings intact — the flag costs one id-only
query. Verified in a browser on tools/branch_fixture.py.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 811368d048 Refresh what a switch changes, not what a turn changes
A branch switch does not change the length of the story. It changes which
story it is. Four panels keyed on actions.length and so could not tell the
difference: the Branches panel drew one branch while the reader was already
on a second, Insights showed the prompt built for the path just left, the
script-state drawer kept the other line's numbers, and the Memory Bank did
not notice a deleted branch taking its memories with it.

Only the world-state drawer was right, and only because it happened to
carry stateKey already. They all key on the pair now, and deleting a branch
bumps it too — that is the one operation that changes what is stored
without a turn being played and without the story on the current path
moving by a single action.

tools/branch_fixture.py is the thing that could show it. The stress
fixture's world state is empty, so it cannot answer whether a switch puts
the scoreboard back, and its story is one branch. This builds a small
bootable adventure with a stat schema, a gold script, two takes on one turn
that differ by 35 hit points, a fork, and a memory on each side — with both
branches the same length on purpose, because equal length is precisely the
case a length-based key cannot see.

Verified in a browser with the drawer open: hp 60 to 95 and back, the bar
redrawn, the story swapped to the other take, Insights carrying the scratch
and not the beating. The Memory Bank deliberately does not change on a
switch: the drawer is adventure-wide so a memory is always findable to

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 84827f0f37 Put the tree on the screen
The pager could only step between attempts, and stepping has nothing to say
about the thing the tree exists for: taking a path the story moved past and
keeping both. Every attempt has been its own node since SP4, so a chip is a
node now, and "take this path" forks — or simply switches, when the turn is
still the tip and its attempts are leaves nobody has built on.

Beside it, a Branches panel: every line the story has taken, with where each
left its parent and where it ends, and switch, rename and delete-with-confirm.
It sits with Plot/Memory/Scripts/Insights rather than inventing a new place to
put a rail. An unnamed branch is drawn from its fork depth, never from its
position in the list — a position shifts the moment a branch above it goes.

A spatial per-node map was considered and deliberately not built. At the size
this has to be verified against it is a second windowing problem, and it can be
added later without a new endpoint, since the rail and a map read the same
GET /branches. VariantOut grows an id because a fork is addressed by the node
being taken, not by an ordinal in a group that renumbers.

Driven by hand against the 602-action fixture, which found one bug that no test
could: the panel refreshed on actions.length, and a fork swaps a 60-action
window for another 60-action window, so it went on drawing a one-branch tree
while the story was already on the second. It keys off the counter adoptWindow
bumps now.

The scroll path was driven at the same time — three prepends of ~16,200 px, the
same node holding viewport top 792 to 787, never thrown to the end. That closes
the standing gap in this project. Console clean.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 cf3d52171e Let a branch be named, and thrown away
SP7 needs three branch operations and SP5 built one. Switching exists;
naming and deleting had no column and no route between them.

A name is stored because a player chose it. An unnamed branch keeps NULL
rather than a generated "branch 4" — a generated label is derived, and it
would go stale the moment a branch before it is deleted and the ordinals
shift underneath. The client draws those from the fork depth, which
nothing can shift. The v2 bundle carries the name for the same reason it
carries the fork points and leaves `lineage` out: it is a decision, not
something computed from one.

Delete is what stands between a tree and unbounded growth, since nothing
prunes one on its own. It refuses two branches: the root, which holds the
turns every other branch borrows, and the one being read — including any
branch the head was forked from, which is the same mistake in disguise and
the one that would cascade the head away and leave head_branch_id pointing
at nothing. The nodes, memories and descendants go through the foreign
keys that already cascade.

A cursor standing on a deleted branch is cleared. On Postgres a stale
branch id would simply never resolve; SQLite hands the freed id to the
next fork, and then the anchor resolves onto a branch it has never seen
and calls a stretch of story already summarized.

396 tests, 15 new.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 a7bf47a35e Let a backup carry a story that went two ways
A bundle had one list and a forked adventure has two stories, so export was
emitting every branch's turns interleaved by index — a mangled story rather
than lost data, and unreachable only because forking has no UI yet.
`ai-dnd-adventure-v2` carries the branches, the depth each one left its
parent at, which attempt at every turn is the story, and what each node
left behind. That last one is not decoration: the after-snapshots are what
a branch switch puts back, and a bundle without them imports a tree nobody
can switch inside.

`app/bundle.py` owns both formats and nothing else knows either. The v1
reader stays — those files are already on people's disks — and it is now
the only place a `variants` array exists anywhere.

The rule the module is built on is that a bundle carries what was chosen
and never what is derived. The head branch, the fork points, the live flags
and the anchors are decisions somebody made. The lineage, the head depth,
the legacy `index` and the variant ordinals are computed from those and are
rebuilt on the way in, because a bundle is a text file anybody can edit and
a derived field shipped beside its source is a chance for the file to
disagree with itself where no read would report it.

`index` is the one that stops being academic here. It agreed with `depth`
until SP5, and this is the first writer that has to fill it for a forked
story, where two branches both hold a node at depth 4. It is allocated one
per turn instead: siblings share it, no two coordinates do.

Everything a hand-edited file can get wrong about the shape of a tree is a
400 raised before the adventure row exists, because a half-applied import
is exactly the failure this phase exists to end — a story that goes quiet.
A file wrong about which attempt is live is corrected rather than refused;
that is an invariant of the database, not of the format.

Measured on the 600-action fixture: 587 kB to 911 kB, and all of the
increase is the outcomes at 489 B a node — the coordinates themselves save
57.5 B a node against the old turn-and-variants shape. Twenty forks add
660 B. 4.3% of the import body cap.

381 tests green, 16 of them new in test_bundle_v2.py. No migration, no
vacuum owed.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 d051501517 Score the plan against what the tree actually did
SP4 and SP5 are written down: what shipped, what it measured, and the
handful of things worth not rediscovering. The bug table at the top is
scored now that six of its seven rows are gone — and the seventh, the
one-turn holdback, is gone for a different reason than the one written
there, which is the correction that matters most. Editing a summarised
action is still unfixed and now says so; no subphase is scheduled for it.

The Open section closes. `retry_of.index` was the last item and SP4
answered it by reusing the retried node's depth.

Two vacuums are owed, SP1's and SP4's, and neither has deployed. One run
after the SP4 deploy settles both. SP8 grows two more columns to drop and
a caveat about which ones are not dead yet.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 ffb2fd5b0e Let a story go two ways at once
Attempts pile up at the tip as leaves and cost nothing. The moment the
player takes the story down one the line has already moved past, the two
futures have to coexist — so `tree.fork` gives that attempt a branch of
its own, forked at the depth just before it, and the line it leaves
keeps every turn it has.

One row is inserted and one row is moved. Nothing is copied: everything
before the fork is borrowed through the lineage cached on the branch
row. Measured on a 40-turn story forked twenty times — 21 branches, 140
rows, an 80-action story — the page load costs 31,652 B against the
31,433 B the same story flat costs, and a branch is 103 B of ancestry.

Nothing derived moves either, and that is the part worth keeping: a
memory hangs off the coordinate the parent's attempt still occupies, and
the lineage caps the parent one depth short of it. The fork simply
cannot see it, so it resummarizes that ground from the text it actually
tells, without a line of bookkeeping.

Two things had to change underneath. A new node's depth now comes from
the tip of its branch rather than from the adventure-wide `index`, which
would have left a hole in a fork's path the width of the other branch.
And undo stops at the fork — the turns before it belong to the branch
this one grew out of.

`GET /branches`, `POST /branches/{id}/switch` and
`POST /actions/{id}/fork` are the endpoints SP7's tree view is drawn on.

365 tests green, 18 of them new in test_branch_forking.py.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 0a12d9cd47 Make a retry a node, not a rewrite
Every attempt at a turn is now its own row at the same (branch, depth),
with `live` naming the one the story tells. The JSON repeating group on
`actions.variants` is read one last time, by a migration that writes it
out as the sibling rows it always described, and then goes unread.

The snapshots turn around with it: an action carries the state it left
behind rather than the state it started from, because attempts at one
turn share a starting position and differ exactly in their outcome.
Rolling back is "what the node in front left behind", one lookup on the
path, and it is what undo and retry now both read.

And the memory holdback goes. It existed because retry rewrote a row
under a mark that had already moved past it; a retry writes a sibling
now, and replacing what a coordinate says withdraws what was derived
from it — the same repair undo and delete already made.

The assembled prompt is still stored once per turn: it moves with the
live flag, so a superseded attempt keeps only the few hundred bytes that
were its own. Measured on the 600-action fixture: 700 rows for the same
600-turn story, prompt archive byte-identical at 0.50 MB, index 1.8 kB
and page load 62.7 kB unmoved.

347 tests green. `tests/test_story_tree_baseline.py` and
`tests/test_retry_variants.py` pass unmodified — SP4 was allowed to move
the baseline for the variant-count semantics and did not need to.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 c51531709d Mark the story with a node, not with a count
The memory bank and the story summary each kept a cursor: how many story
actions they had already covered. A count is a position in a list, and this
list moves — delete an action in front of the mark and every later one slides
down a slot, so the mark now covers one it has never read. All the cursor
bookkeeping existed to patch that up.

Both marks are now (branch_id, depth): the node up to and including which the
work is done. A depth is a coordinate along a path, not an offset into a list,
so nothing in front of it can move it. That deletes rather than rewrites
`position_of_index`, `note_action_removed`, `_rewind_cursors_to_index`,
`prune_dangling_memories` and the every-pass clamp in `run_post_turn`.

A memory hangs off the node its block ends on, so a fork inherits its
ancestors' memories without copying any, and retrieval selects through the
branch clause over the *whole* lineage — recall is long-range by definition and
cannot be windowed. Measured: 1,807 B on a story forked twenty times against
1,823 B on a flat one of the same length.

Migrations 53-56 translate the old counts into nodes. They rewrite `adventures`
and not `actions`, so this one needs no VACUUM FULL.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 05a2a77e4c Resolve the head once a flush, not once a node
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 563b9af9cf Read one story, and know which one
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 d3756abdaa Give every action a branch and a depth
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 5c1bcf7305 Build a fixture that can witness what a tree changes
The stress fixture is sized from production and exists to weigh bytes, so it
leaves every column it does not weigh at its default. Checked against a freshly
built one, that is exactly the set phase 14 has to migrate: state_before and
world_state_before NULL on all 600 rows, no scenario and so no RPG layer, no
adventure scripts, both cursors 0, and a hundred retry histories whose two
attempts carry byte-identical text with variant_index pinned at 0.

That last one matters most. "Which attempt is live?" is the question SP4's
migration answers when it decides which sibling node becomes the head of a
turn, and against that fixture the question had no observable answer -- a
migration that picked wrong would have looked correct.

--rich fills in those columns and no others. A real RPG scenario read from the
seed data rather than invented, with a world state played forward so hp
declines and flags flip; monotonic per-action state snapshots, so a rollback
that does not happen reads as a wrong number instead of as nothing; a gold
script, story cards, non-zero cursors, pinned and forgotten memories; retry
attempts with distinct texts, counts of two and three, and a live attempt that
is often not the last written. Plus a second adventure, because a branch clause
that forgot its adventure still looks right on a database holding one.

The invariant SP4 reads -- text mirrors variants[variant_index] -- is asserted
at build time rather than assumed.

The plain fixture is untouched and re-measured unchanged at 1.8 kB, so the
egress ceilings stay comparable. All six shapes run clean on --rich, including
the turn path with the RPG layer and script pipeline now live. 283 tests pass.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 1940e222a7 Pin down what a tree must not change
Phase 14 replaces the action list with a tree, which touches the memory bank,
the context builder, undo, retry and the UI at once. Before any of that moves,
write down what "unaffected" means and prove it holds today.

tests/test_story_tree_baseline.py drives the product over HTTP the way a player
does and asserts only on API responses, never on how anything is stored: the
turn engine, retry and variant switching, undo, paging all the way back to the
start without gaps or repeats, edit/delete, memories, export/import round-trip,
world state. 283 green with it added, from 259.

It must pass unmodified through the schema change, the branch clause and the
move of memories onto nodes. A linear story is a tree with one branch, so those
subphases have no licence to change behaviour, and this is what says so.

The plan itself records four decisions that were open: structural-first with no
runtime flag, legacy columns kept one release, full tree visualisation, and a
v2 bundle with a v1 reader. Plus four traps found by reading rather than
running -- history._from_memory and the scripting pipeline both slice
adventure.actions, which under a tree is every branch rather than the path.

ParthandClaude Opus 5 0f1e05c808 Keep the fixture, so there is something to scroll (#5)
The harness already built a production-shaped 600-action adventure and then
threw it away with the temp file. The one open gap in plan/13 is that nothing
has ever driven the scroll in a browser, and part of why is that there was
never a long adventure to drive it with.

--keep PATH writes the fixture somewhere durable and makes the app able to
serve it. Two edits are needed for that, both of which cost an hour to
rediscover:

  - create_all() builds the current schema but leaves the version stamp at its
    default, and bootstrap() reads a populated-but-unstamped database as
    ancient — it replays every migration against a schema that already has the
    columns, and fails on the first.
  - the fixture's user is a registered one, but local mode looks for the row
    with email IS NULL and is_guest false, so without clearing the email the
    app opens on an empty library.

--keep is read before argparse exists, because where the database lives has to
be settled before app.database is imported. That is the same constraint the
AIDND_STRESS_DATABASE_URL block already lives under. SQLite only; combining it
with a Postgres target is rejected rather than half-honoured.

Verified end to end: the fixture boots with no manual step, action_count 600,
a 60-action first payload, and before_id walks back nine more pages to the
start. Nothing about the default path changed; 259 tests pass.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 6bf56ba272 Measure what the vacuum actually left behind
The post-vacuum sizes had never been read. They were 144.2 MB - above the
99.6 MB the compression work started from, not the ~53 MB it projected. The
earlier VACUUM FULL ran before migrations 42-45, which then rewrote every row
and refilled the table with dead space that only another VACUUM FULL returns.

Ran it: 144.2 -> 65.0 MB, 79.2 MB reclaimed in 5.5s, health green after.
actions is now 52.1 MB holding 50.4 MB of live bytes. The projection was right;
nothing had reclaimed what the compression freed.

Also records where those bytes are. context_snapshot is 94% of the table at
104 kB a row, and the per-action state columns a tree would sit beside are
rounding errors - which is the number phase 14 wants before it adds more.

And a trap: n_live_tup on the TOAST relation implied half the real bloat. It
is a leftover ANALYZE estimate, stale in the flattering direction right after
a migration. Size from sum(octet_length(col)) instead.

The post-vacuum sizes were never measured, so the projection stays a

promoted from a footnote to the one real open item, because re-reading that
path after shipping found a bug in it -- which is the argument that reading it

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 39296d1b44 Stop the autoscroll throwing the reader to the end when a page loads above
Prepending older actions changes `actions`, and the bottom-pinning effect
watches `actions`. If nothing had un-pinned the view first, loading earlier
turns scrolled straight past them to the newest one -- the reader asks to go
back and the story throws them forward.

Scrolling up is what normally un-pins, so the case that breaks is the one
where the reader never scrolled: a window short enough to fit the viewport,
where the "N earlier moments" button is the only way back and the button is
what fails. Reading backwards is the opposite of following along, so a prepend
now clears the pin explicitly rather than relying on a scroll having happened.

Found by re-reading this path rather than by running it -- the scroll
behaviour is the one part of the paging work nothing exercises, since the
frontend has no test runner.

Also holds off three seconds after a failed page fetch. Parked near the top,
momentum scrolling calls this dozens of times a second, and against an
endpoint that is failing that is a retry storm rather than a retry.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 0eef367f30 Convert the snapshots in batches, not one round trip per row
The backfill issued an UPDATE per action. It runs at container start, before
uvicorn binds the port, against a database at the other end of a network --
944 rows on production, so a thousand sequential round trips standing between
the deploy and its first health check.

One executemany per batch instead. Same rows, same verification, same
transaction; nineteen round trips rather than nine hundred.

Re-verified on Postgres, since executemany binds bytea through a different
psycopg path: 720,864 B of JSON to 204,293 B, every row equal.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 4f067516de Close plan/13 and point STATUS at the tree
Records what the six changes measured, and replaces the pick-up item -- which
was step 6 -- with plan/14, since there is nothing left in 13.

Two things a future session needs and cannot infer from the code. The VACUUM:
migration 43 compresses context_snapshot but Postgres does not return the disk
by itself, so until `VACUUM FULL actions` runs the storage win exists only on
paper and the table is temporarily larger, not smaller. And the gap: nothing
exercises the scroll behaviour in a browser, because the frontend has no test
runner, and prepend-and-restore-scroll is the part most likely to feel wrong
even when it is correct.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 cf8ec22e8b Open an adventure on a window of the story, and page upward
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 ae6e5af6c7 Store context_snapshot compressed
One column is 89% of the database and the free tier allows 512 MB. Reads were
already solved -- the column is deferred, so a page load never touches it and
one screen fetches one row at a time -- but nothing had costed storage, and
storage is the constraint with a cliff: 99.6 MB used, ~94 kB of disk per
action, so the ceiling arrives around 5,400 actions and 944 are stored.

Postgres already compresses it and only gets 1.7x. pglz is tuned for fast
decompression of data a query might filter on, and nothing has ever filtered
on an assembled prompt -- it is written once and read whole, rarely, by the
Insights viewer. zlib gets 3.5x on the same text for a decompress on a request
that already made an LLM call.

Done as a TypeDecorator rather than a second column, so every call site still
writes a dict and reads a dict back, and deferred/undefer/load_only keep
naming the same attribute. Only the storage format moves.

Migrations 43-45: add the bytea, convert into it, drop the original, rename.
The backfill is the one destructive step in the file -- 44 removes the only
other copy -- so it decompresses every row and compares it against what went
in, and a row that fails aborts the run. The whole loop is one transaction, so
an abort rolls the DROP back and the prompts are still there.

Verified on real Postgres, replaying 43-45 from a pre-43 schema on a throwaway
Neon database: 720,864 B of JSON became 204,293 B of bytea, 3.53x, the column
came out named context_snapshot, every snapshot compared equal and the one
NULL stayed NULL.

Postgres does not return the disk by itself: DROP COLUMN only marks the column
gone and the backfill leaves a dead tuple per row, so the table peaks near
twice its size before settling. The deploy needs one VACUUM FULL to collect
it; the migration comment says so.

The egress fixture's snapshots are prose now rather than "x" * 20_000, and the
prose generator moved to tools/fakeprose.py so the harness and the tests share
one definition. A repeated character compresses a thousandfold: against the
old fixture a compressed column looked free and the byte ceilings would have
been guarding nothing.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 a6cb49293c Name the columns a list response carries
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 12d57afdac Put a number on what an endpoint may fetch, not just a column list
test_egress.py asserted which columns a statement names, which is the shape
both of this project's egress blowouts took. It would all still pass if a
response grew tenfold within the columns it is allowed to read -- and a story
that keeps getting longer does exactly that. Production's longest adventure is
607 actions where the plan assumed 200.

So dbmeter, which was built to be importable from tests and was not yet used
by any, now backs four byte ceilings: the page load, the action list, and one
action's snapshot fetched on demand. Budgets are per action rather than
absolute, so they mean the same thing whatever size the fixture is set to, and
generous -- 3 kB against a real 994 B. They are there to catch an order of
magnitude, not to freeze a byte count.

The fourth test is the one that keeps the other three honest. A ceiling proves
nothing unless the thing it excludes would breach it, so it undefers the
snapshot on purpose and asserts the same twelve rows cost more than ten times
the budget. If the fixture ever shrinks below the point where that holds, that
test fails rather than the ceilings quietly passing on nothing.

Meter grows detach() and a context manager. A script exits and takes the
wrapping with it; a test does not, and one test leaving the shared engine
metered would charge bytes to a scope nobody opened.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 be66780a26 Size the stress fixture from what production actually holds
The old fixture was wrong in both directions at once and happened to land near
the right total. Actions were modelled at ~2.1 KB against a real 886 B of
text, and adventures at 200 actions against a real 607. Width flattered,
length did not, and length is what a page load pays for.

Re-sized from the 2026-08-17 measurements: 600 actions, 1700 B of narration
alternating with a one-line player input, 232 KB of context_snapshot a row.
The page-load shape now reports 606.0 kB against the 589.5 kB measured on
production's longest adventure -- 2.8% out, where the old defaults were 28%
out on a story a third of the length.

Filler text is now generated word by word instead of one sentence repeated.
That matters for what comes next: the repeated string compresses 313x and the
generated prose 3.7x, so any compression ratio measured against the old
fixture would have been fiction, and shrinking context_snapshot is the open
question it exists to answer.

context_snapshot also gains a flag of its own rather than being hardcoded, and
the 74 KB figure in the comment -- inherited from models.py -- is corrected:
the real column averages 163 KB a row across the table.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 2c5909a268 Drop the JSON vector column, and fix what was hiding behind it
Migration 38 left memories.embedding in place so a rollback could still find
the vectors. Production has since been verified reading from embedding_blob,
so migration 42 drops it: 4 MB of a 99.6 MB database holding nothing anyone
reads.

Removing it surfaced a live bug. Changing your embedding model is supposed to
throw the bank's vectors away and let the post-turn pass rebuild them, because
two models' vectors are not comparable. The settings route did that by nulling
memories.embedding -- correct until 38 moved the vectors, after which it
cleared the dead column and left the blob intact with `embedded` still true.
_embed_pending filters on `embedded IS FALSE`, so it never saw those rows and
the bank went on ranking against the old model's vectors permanently.

Nothing would have reported it. cosine returns 0.0 on a width mismatch, so a
different-width model scores every memory zero and retrieval returns whichever
rows happen to sort first; a same-width model scores plausible garbage.

The bulk clear now sets both columns. It stays a bulk UPDATE rather than going
through set_vector -- loading the rows is the cost that whole path exists to
avoid -- so set_vector's docstring now names it as the one caller that
legitimately writes those columns by hand. No cache invalidation is added:
clearing `embedded` drops the rows out of the catalogue query, and set_vector
evicts each entry as the re-embed puts it back.

test_embedding_blob.py now rebuilds the pre-38 schema by hand where it tests
the backfill, since create_all no longer produces the column it converts from,
and asserts 42 removes it at the end of a full bootstrap -- 38 reads that
column and 42 drops it, so an upgrade that reordered them would arrive with an
empty bank.

The previous commit recorded the service as suspended. It is not. Render
appended a suffix to the `ai-dnd` service name in render.yaml, and plain
ai-dnd.onrender.com is a different, suspended service whose 503 page reads
"suspended by its owner" -- indistinguishable from this deploy being down
unless you notice the host is wrong.

The real host answers {"ok":true} on /api/health in 0.6s, mints a guest,
returns an empty adventure list for that guest and serves the starter
scenarios. The authoritative link is the one docs/index.html points at, not
the service name in the blueprint.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 70d024da62 Check the egress work against the database it actually runs on
Everything measured so far ran on SQLite against a synthetic fixture, so two
claims were still on trust: that migration 38 spells BYTEA correctly for a real
server, and that the byte figures survive psycopg's encodings.

Both hold. Production reads schema_version 41 with embedding_blob bytea and
embedded boolean present, the backfill is complete at 134/134, and the packed
vectors are 5.04x smaller than the JSON on real data -- 30,971 to 6,144 bytes a
memory, as predicted. stress_session now takes AIDND_STRESS_DATABASE_URL, and
against a throwaway Neon database every shape lands within 0.5% of the SQLite
run: the warm turn is 121.1 kB against 122.3, with memories down to 1.7 kB of
it.

The harness writes, so it refuses any target whose name does not say stress or
scratch -- pointed at the production database it stops rather than seeding it
with a fake user and 200 fake turns. It also empties a Postgres target before
building, which a fresh SQLite temp file never needed.

Two corrections fall out, both recorded in plan/13. The page-load model has the
wrong shape: real actions are half the fixture's weight but real stories run to
607 actions, not 200, so the worst real page load is 589.5 kB. And the decision
to leave context_snapshot in the database costed egress but never storage --
it is 88.9 MB of a 99.6 MB database against a 512 MB free tier, which is the
ceiling this deploy will hit first.

Measured with counts and octet_length sums only. No user content was read.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 b7e53ae581 Rank the memory bank without reading the memory bank
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 c56864877a Store embeddings as packed float32 instead of a JSON list
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 7ee5ceea6c Measure database egress in bytes, from inside the repo
Both egress blowouts this project has had were one query fetching a column
nobody read, and a statement count would have shown nothing wrong in either.
So the meter counts bytes, at the DBAPI cursor -- everything that crosses
that line crossed the wire.

tools/stress_session.py drives a production-shaped adventure through the real
routes with only the network faked. It reproduces both figures measured
directly on production: 426.7 kB for a 200-action page load against 423 KB,
and 3,258.7 kB for one turn against 3,153 kB.

The memory bank is on by default, which is the whole point -- the previous
harness ran without an embedding model, so retrieval returned early and the
heaviest read in a turn never happened. --no-embeddings reproduces that
deliberately, and the gap is 29x.

It also turned up two callers the production SQL could not see: run_post_turn
walks the whole bank again every turn, and Insights pays for it a third time.
A played turn costs ~6.4 MB, not 3.2.

Claude 544c599a5a Keep the composer above the on-screen keyboard on the first tap
Both composers are position:sticky;bottom:0, which pins them to the bottom
of the *layout* viewport. A phone keyboard does not shrink that viewport --
it only covers it -- so the first tap on the input left the box sitting
behind the keyboard. Tapping back and focusing again appeared to work only
because the page had been scrolled during the first attempt, so the
browser's scroll-into-view landed somewhere else.

Two engines, two halves:

- Chromium honours interactive-widget=resizes-content on the viewport meta,
  which makes the layout viewport shrink when the keyboard opens, so 100dvh
  and sticky bottoms account for it on their own.
- iOS Safari ignores that flag and only shrinks the visual viewport, so
  measure the covered height from visualViewport and publish it as
  --kb-inset; the composers offset their sticky bottom by it. On browsers
  that already resized the layout viewport the measurement is ~0, so the
  same rule is a no-op there instead of a double lift.

The pages also gain a matching bottom margin so the last beat can still be
scrolled clear of a lifted composer.

The bar ran in prompt order while the legend below it ranked by share, so
reading one against the other meant matching colours back and forth. Sort
the segments the same way the legend already sorts, so the widest slice is
always the leftmost and the two read as one list. The sections further
down the panel keep prompt order — that is the order the model sees.

Claude 8df36f8d7e Show the Insights token budget as a colour-coded section breakdown
The panel reported one number for the whole prompt and one flat fill bar,
so "3412 / 4000 tokens" never said which section was spending it. Replace
the fill with a stacked bar — one segment per context section, scaled to
the budget so the leftover width is the remaining headroom — plus a legend
ordered biggest-first with each section's share and token count. Hovering
either the bar or a legend row dims the rest; clicking a row jumps to that
section's text below, and each section header now carries its own share.

Section colours move out of CSS into a single SECTION_COLORS map applied
inline, so the bar, the legend and the section headers cannot drift apart,
and related sections keep their hue family without sharing an exact shade
(two identical colours read as one segment in a stacked bar). The narrow
side panel only fits one legend column, so the long tail folds behind a
"+N smaller sections" toggle.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 bbcb07c6be Delete guest accounts left idle for five days
The app had no cleanup of any kind: in multi-user mode every first visit
mints a users row, so the demo has been accumulating one permanent account
per visitor along with everything they generated.

cleanup.py sweeps guests idle for AIDND_GUEST_RETENTION_DAYS (default 5),
once at startup and then every few hours. Startup is the load-bearing
trigger — the free tier sleeps after ~15 minutes, so a long timer rarely
gets to fire.

Idle is COALESCE(last_seen_at, created_at), not last_seen_at: _touch only
writes that column hourly, and a guest minted by /auth/me has it NULL until
its second request, so the simpler query would have deleted brand-new
visitors mid-session.

It's one Core DELETE rather than db.delete(user), which would SELECT every
adventure, action and memory into Python purely to delete them — the same
egress pattern as the 189x fix. Every FK from users down is ON DELETE
CASCADE, so the database does the whole graph and returns a count.

The filter requires is_guest AND email IS NULL, so registered users (who
upgrade in place) and local mode's implicit user are both out of reach, and
is_public is output-only so a guest can never own content another user can
see. Session cookies have no expiry and can outlive a swept row; that path
401s and the frontend's existing retry re-mints a session.

Guests are told: /auth/me serves guest_retention_days and the signup modal
states the window, sourced from the server so it can't drift from what is
enforced.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 4.8 c500203270 Harden auth against a forwarded-header rate-limit bypass, and guard BYOK SSRF
The per-IP rate limits could be bypassed entirely: uvicorn ran with
--forwarded-allow-ips "*", which trusts the leftmost X-Forwarded-For value
(client-controlled), and Render forwards the inbound header rather than
stripping it. Rotating the header handed out a fresh rate-limit bucket per
request, so the login/register limit (10/5min) and guest-minting limit
(30/5min) were no throttle at all — unbounded password guessing and guest-row
creation. Confirmed live: fixed IP -> 429 after 10; rotating spoofed header ->
no 429 across 14 attempts.

Two-layer fix:
- limits._client_ip now derives the client IP from the hop the trusted edge
  appends (rightmost of X-Forwarded-For), which a client can't spoof past;
  tunable via AIDND_TRUSTED_PROXY_HOPS. Dropped --forwarded-allow-ips "*".
- New per-account login throttle (email-keyed, 8 fails / 15 min, cleared on
  success): stops distributed guessing against one account that a per-IP limit
  can't, since it can't be diluted across many source addresses.

Also close an SSRF on the BYOK endpoint_url (hosted mode only): the connection
test and turn/chat streams now refuse a URL that resolves to a non-public
address (private/loopback/link-local metadata/reserved), checked at request
time so it resists a DNS record flipping to a private IP. No-op locally, where
reaching localhost Ollama is intended.

Tests: test_ratelimit_hardening.py (8), test_netguard.py (13). 172 pass.

The hero linked at the Render hostname directly. Pointing it at the project
page keeps the deploy URL out of the README and folds in the "prefer a tour

Claude a0d4db7661 Document the engine's design decisions
The README says what the project does; nothing said why any of it works the
way it does. This adds design notes written to be read end to end: each
section states the decision, the reasoning, and what it cost.

docs/GUIDE.md is the readable source. docs/guide.html is the same material as
a self-contained reading page for the project site — no webfonts, no scripts
beyond a progress rail, so it also works saved to disk and opened offline.

Covers the context budget allocator, the propose-and-referee world-state
engine, the measured length-hint result, the memory bank's settled-action and
cursor rules, the two coordinate systems behind the summarization bugs, the
retry variant machinery, the egress fix, and the demo-key pinning. Closes with
the measured numbers, the known limitations, and a pointer to the cleanup
backlog in self-review.md.

The demo sleeps on Render's free tier, so a cold link looks broken to
anyone who won't wait 30-60s. A static page on GitHub Pages is never
asleep: it shows the screenshots immediately and sets the expectation
before the visitor clicks through to the demo.

Served from main:/docs, reusing the screenshots already committed there.

The README claimed screenshots were "coming" and stopped describing the
project around phase 10, so the world-state engine, the retry/undo state
revert and the egress work — the most interesting parts — were invisible.

- Screenshots of the play screen, Insights, the schema editor and the
  script editor, captured from the running app.
- Document the world-state engine, undo/retry rewind, and the two measured
  performance fixes; correct the context assembly order to match
  context/builder.py; drop the stale "phases 1-6 complete" note.
- Add CI (backend pytest, frontend lint + build, Docker image build) and
  its badge. Nothing ran the 151 tests but me.
- Move CODE_REVIEW_FINDINGS.md to docs/self-review.md and say up front
  that every correctness finding is resolved.
- Drop a dead import that the newly-wired lint flagged.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 f295893204 Ask the model for a turn that fits inside the output cap
max_output_tokens is a hard wall the endpoint enforces mid-sentence. The
```state block is emitted after the narration, so a long turn hits the wall
partway through the block and the deltas are lost — silently, since nothing
reads finish_reason.

builder.length_hint() derives a word limit from the cap ((cap - 50 headroom)
* 0.75 words/token * 0.90 buffer) and injects it just above EMIT_REMINDER,
which keeps the last slot it needs. Reserved in build_context like the
reminder is.

Phrased as a ceiling, not a budget. Measured against gemma-4-26b at cap 800,
n=5 per arm: no hint 174 words, "keep this turn under about N words" 246,
"hard limit ... a typical turn is much shorter" 170. A budget reads as a
target to fill — every budget run was longer than every unhinted one, pushing
turns toward the wall the hint exists to avoid. Ceiling phrasing still works
at tight caps: at 250, unhinted hit finish_reason=length 2/6, hinted 0/6.

tests/test_length_hint.py, 11 tests; each mechanism verified by sabotage.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 23398c4ac0 Fix the mismatched email field and rework the auth modal
The global input styling in index.css enumerates types, and `email` was
never in the list, so the Email box fell through to browser defaults while
the Password box right below it got the app treatment. Added it to both
copies of that selector list -- the base rule and the 16px iOS-zoom rule in
the mobile block; missing the second would revert the fix on phones.

While in there, the modal itself: log in / sign up are now segmented tabs
instead of a link crammed into the button row, fields carry autoComplete so
password managers work at all, a show/hide toggle on the password, Esc to
dismiss, and the error is a real role=alert box rather than the shared
.test-error text.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 47e33fa311 Read a window of the story per turn instead of all of it
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 f1bd099ec8 Cut database egress 189x by deferring the prompt snapshot
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 7c538c8235 Stop retried and deleted actions from corrupting story context and memories
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 906ba423d8 Keep every retried attempt instead of deleting it
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 be6dbb0f24 Give NPCs their own editor section and unify the world-state boxes
NPCs are still part of stat_schema, but editing them inside the World State
panel meant a nested dashed sub-box among four flat stat lists. They now get
a top-level "Cast & NPCs" section: one card per NPC (avatar, name, npc.<id>
address, triggers, description, its own stats) in a responsive grid, saved
through the same schema path via the new NpcEditor/addNpc exports.

The panel's real inconsistency was CSS, not layout: the global field rule
keys off input[type="..."], which never matches the editor's typeless key and
description inputs, so those rendered with browser defaults beside properly
styled number boxes. One scoped base rule now covers the whole editor and
every entry is the same tile with a caption over each control.

Two bugs fell out of that: .se-band-n (0,1,0) always lost to
input[type="number"] (0,1,1), so band bounds rendered full-width; and the
exclusion has to be :not(:where([type="checkbox"])) because a plain :not()
inherits its argument's specificity and swallows every override.

In Play, NPCs group under a single "Cast" heading as compact plates instead
of each becoming another top-level group in the rail.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 d66fd1d6a2 Add a reasoning-off setting (-1 reasoning budget)
Models like DeepSeek V4 Flash reason by default, and the reasoning budget
setting could only ever add thinking tokens - there was no value that turned
thinking off. A negative budget now sends `reasoning: {effort: "none"}`.

Uses effort:none rather than exclude:true deliberately - exclude still thinks
and still bills, it only hides the trace.

Zero keeps its old meaning (send no `reasoning` field at all) so endpoints that
reject unknown fields, like the default Ollama one, are unaffected. Reusing the
existing int column this way avoids a migration.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 aed28d9295 Add "Update from scenario" to pull scenario edits into a running adventure
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.

14 new tests in backend/tests/test_scenario_refresh.py; 85 pass.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 a170f5aed5 Size the action editor to its content; widen both composers on mobile
Editing a beat opened a fixed 110px box. Player actions are one line, but AI
beats are several paragraphs, so editing one meant working through a keyhole.
New AutoTextarea sizes to its content on mount and on every change; CSS keeps a
110px floor so a short player action doesn't collapse, and a 65vh ceiling that
scrolls internally so Save/Cancel can't be pushed off the screen.

On phones both composers are one flex row, which left almost nothing to type
into: measured at a 390px composer, the Play textarea got 138px (Do/Say/Story
eat ~180px, Send ~75px) and the chat textarea 310px. Both now wrap, with the
buttons on their own line and the textarea taking the full 390px — Play keeps
Do/Say/Story and Send together on the top row, chat drops Send beneath. Play
stays two rows, so nothing gets taller. Desktop is unchanged; every rule is
inside the existing max-width:720px block.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 49e2dde5cf Fix 500 on every provider resolution when BYOK key matches the demo key
The demo-key backstop added in 1dd3108 keyed its check on
`api_key == DEMO_API_KEY` rather than on `using_demo`. That looked stricter but
was wrong: the demo key is an ordinary OpenRouter key, so a user can
legitimately paste that same value into their own Settings as BYOK. The guard
then raised on every resolve_provider_config() call for that account.

Because me_payload() resolves a provider config, this 500'd GET /api/auth/me —
the SPA's bootstrap call — so the frontend's `me` never resolved and the nav
(including the AI Chat link) never rendered, on top of chat itself failing.

`using_demo` is the flag that actually means "the server is paying", and only
resolve_provider_config's demo branch sets it, so the pinning guarantee is
unchanged: server-funded turns still can't reach an off-whitelist model.

Adds a regression test for a BYOK user whose key equals the demo key value, and
corrects the test that had asserted the buggy behaviour.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 1dd31086c1 Add power-user AI Chat page; centralize demo-key model pinning
AI Chat is a plain scratchpad for talking to a model directly — no story
context, scripts or world state — for poking at models, prompts and endpoints
without starting an adventure. Power users only: the router 404s (rather than
403s) for everyone else and the nav link is hidden. The conversation lives in
localStorage, so there's no new table or migration.

is_power_user() now also returns True in local mode: it's the operator's own
machine and their own key, the same reasoning that makes the provider debug log
local-only.

Alongside that, the rule keeping the shared demo key off paid models now lives
in exactly one place. It had been duplicated into the chat router, which is how
one copy eventually drifts:

- resolve_provider_config() takes an optional model_override and is the only
  place the whitelist is applied, so turns, AI Chat and the connection test all
  inherit it. An override is a per-request preference, never a grant.
- ProviderConfig.__post_init__ refuses to exist when api_key is the demo key
  and the model isn't whitelisted. It keys on the key itself rather than the
  using_demo flag, so a mislabelled config can't slip past, and it raises so a
  future path that bypasses the resolver fails loudly instead of billing.
- The demo branch still pins endpoint_url too — a user-controlled endpoint
  would leak the key itself, which is worse than spending it.

Provider gained chat(messages, ...) beside generate(), both delegating to a
shared _stream(url, body); completion-mode endpoints get the messages flattened
into a labelled transcript. Settings' /models fetch moved to
list_endpoint_models() and is shared with /api/chat/config.

Tests: 10 new in tests/test_chat.py (70 total). These deliberately do not stub
resolve_provider_config — the point is to exercise the real BYOK-vs-demo
decision and assert on what the provider actually received: off-whitelist
override pinned, off-whitelist Settings.model pinned, redirected endpoint
pinned, BYOK passed through untouched.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 5 57c24a07d8 Redesign the library UI and add scenario cover art
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 4.8 970d71a5b6 Keep world-state emit reliable across turns
The AI would sometimes stop emitting the `state` delta block once it missed
a turn. Two compounding causes: the emit rule sat only in the system block
(far from where the model generates), and the block was stripped before
storage — so every replayed history turn looked blockless, biasing the model
by imitation to stop emitting too.

- EMIT_REMINDER: a one-line reminder appended last in the prompt (strongest
  recency slot), gated on has_ws and counted against the token budget.
- render_delta_block + _history_text: re-attach each past AI turn's own delta
  block in replayed history (reconstructed from the stored snapshot delta), so
  the model always sees its emit format. Action.text stays clean, so UI,
  embeddings, and card/NPC trigger-matching are unaffected. History budgeting

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 4.8 8fc6d4d2e0 Add responsive mobile layout for the Play screen and nav
The stylesheet had no real mobile design (one media query that only hid a
nav hint), so on phones the Play screen's four side-by-side columns
overflowed horizontally. Add a max-width:720px layer that collapses the
Play layout to a single story column, turns the World/Script State rails
into left-edge tabs that open as slide-in overlays, and makes the
Plot/Memory/Scripts/Insights side-panel a full-screen overlay. Also add a
hamburger dropdown for the top nav, switch the play-layout heights from vh
to dvh (fixes the mobile address-bar jump), and bump inputs to 16px to stop
iOS zoom-on-focus.

parththakkar106andClaude Sonnet 5 141eec7c64 Add a world-state edit mode for overriding live RPG values
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
and an edit toggle in the World State drawer. Also fixes the
schema-editor stat-kind dropdown and free-text initial-value input
to size consistently with the numeric fields next to them.

Numeric stats couldn't represent things like worn armor or held items.
A stat can now be marked type: "text" — the AI reports the new full
value instead of a delta, with no clamping/bands (cooldown still
applies). Updated the scenario editor's stat kind selector, the
World State drawer's stat display, and the emit-rule prompt; added
tests and an outfit stat to the RPG demo scenario.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 4.8 cf464a48b0 Make NPCs a dedicated section with per-NPC stats
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.

- engine: npcs instantiate/apply/render/reference, npc_name/npc_triggers
- builder: _visible_npcs matches each NPC's own keys
- create_adventure: auto-create story cards from npcs
- WorldStateDrawer: render defined NPCs with their own stats + desc tooltip
- demo seed: Gwen (health/trust) + Bandit Leader (health/aggression)
- tests updated (34 pass); no new migration (npcs lives in stat_schema JSON)

undo/retry roll it back via the Phase 11 snapshot pattern.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 4.8 dab1807118 Roll back script_state on undo/retry; fix retry double-apply
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.

parththakkar106andClaude Opus 4.8 2fc167327d Fix HP demo: emit tag on first line; seeder reconciles demos in place
The reasoning model truncated replies before the end-of-reply [HP-N]
tag, so damage was never reported and HP stuck at 100. Move the tag to
the FIRST line of the reply so it survives truncation, and clarify the
wording (concrete example numbers instead of the literal "[HP-N]" that
confused the model).

Also make the seeder the source of truth for demo content: it now
reconciles an existing seeded scenario in place when a seed file
changes (keeping the scenario row and its adventure FKs), instead of
only inserting when missing — otherwise fixes to already-seeded demos
never reach production. No-op when content already matches, so it stays
cheap on every boot.

Verified end-to-end through the quickjs engine, including a truncated
reply still applying damage, and the in-place update path.

- memorybank: clamp cursors after undo/retry shrinks the action list, and

  before comparing with Memory.source_end (#7)
- memorybank: pinned memories now count toward the top_k budget (#8)
- memorybank: cosine() returns 0.0 on dimension mismatch; changing the
  embedding model clears stored vectors so they re-embed (#9)
- scripting: MAX_STORY_CARDS cap now counts cards inserted during the
  hook, so a script can't add unbounded cards in one turn (#10)
- settings: /test tolerates non-dict JSON from /models (#13)
- scenarios: import accepts worldInformation as a story-card source (#14)

Frontend:
- per-key debounce timers in PlotPanel and ScenarioEditor — editing two
  things within 600ms no longer drops the first save (#15, #16)
- Continue button no longer discards typed input (#17)
- failed retry resyncs actions from the server instead of leaving the
  removed action missing (#18)
- Settings save/test surface errors instead of hanging on Testing… (#19)
- InsightsPanel ignores stale responses from superseded requests (#20)
- placeholder scan includes story-card trigger keys (#21)

addStoryCard returning the 0-based index (falsy for the first card) matches

parththakkar106andClaude Fable 5 22630c8411 Phase 7: MIT license, portfolio README, Docker, cross-platform start
- LICENSE: MIT
- README: rewritten as portfolio-grade docs (features with code pointers,
  architecture, Docker/Windows/macOS quick starts, BYO-model table)
- Dockerfile (3-stage: SPA build, pip wheels, slim runtime) + compose with
  a /data volume; .dockerignore keeps secrets and local data out
- database.py: AIDND_DB_PATH env override so deployments can relocate the
  SQLite file; documented in backend/.env.example
- start.sh: macOS/Linux dev script with first-run setup

Verified locally: production SPA build served by the backend (deep links
OK), DB created at the override path. Docker image itself untested here
(Docker not installed); flagged in plan/07.

# Development and local operation
This is the Adventure Storyteller production fork of AI-DnD. `PROVENANCE.md`
records where the code came from; `planning/` holds the product specification
and milestone plan.
Everything here assumes the local-only rule from
`planning/DECISIONS/004-local-only-production.md`: after setup, ordinary story
play must work with **no Internet access at all**. Setup itself downloads
dependencies and models; playing does not.
## Versions this was built and tested on
| | |
| --- | --- |
| OS | Linux (Ubuntu 24.04 userland), x86-64, 4 cores, 15 GB RAM, no GPU |
| Python | 3.12.3 |
| Node | 22.23.1, npm 10.9.8 (the Dockerfile builds the SPA on Node 24) |
| Ollama | `ollama/ollama:latest` in Docker |
| Models | `qwen2.5:3b-instruct` (narrator), `nomic-embed-text` (memory bank) |
## Setup
```bash
# Backend, from the exact tested dependency closure.
python3 -m venv backend/.venv
backend/.venv/bin/pip install -r backend/requirements.lock
# Frontend.
cd frontend && npm ci && cd ..
```
One runtime dependency was added in M7: `python-multipart`, which is Starlette's
multipart form parser and is how a knowledge source is uploaded. It is pure
Python, Apache-2.0, and has no dependencies of its own, so it adds nothing to
audit beyond itself and no network path at all.
`backend/requirements.lock` pins every version, transitive ones included.
`backend/requirements.txt` states the ranges the code actually needs and stays
the file you edit; regenerate the lock after a deliberate upgrade (the header in
the lock says how).
This is the only step that needs the Internet. It downloads Python and npm
packages; it does **not** download a tokenizer or a font, because both are
vendored in the tree — see "What was made offline-safe" below.
You also need the models, once:
```bash
ollama pull qwen2.5:3b-instruct
ollama pull nomic-embed-text # only if you want the memory bank
```
There is no account to create and nothing to log in to. The application is
single-user: whoever can reach it on loopback is its owner.
## Running
**Development** — backend on `:8000`, Vite dev server on `:5173`:
```bash
./start.sh
```
**Production-shaped** — one server, SPA served by FastAPI:
```bash
cd frontend && npm run build && cd ..
cd backend && .venv/bin/uvicorn app.main:app --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000
```
Then open <http://127.0.0.1:8000>.
**Docker**:
```bash
docker compose up --build
```
### The listener is loopback, and stays loopback
`start.sh`, `start.ps1` and the production command above all pass
`--host 127.0.0.1` explicitly. `docker-compose.yml` publishes
`127.0.0.1:8000:8000` — the process inside the container listens on `0.0.0.0`
because a published port cannot reach anything else, but the port is only
bound on the host's loopback.
That is a requirement, not a preference. In local mode the storyteller API is
single-user and unauthenticated: anything that can reach it can read and
rewrite every campaign. Putting Ollama on another machine (below) does **not**
change this — it is an outbound connection and needs no inbound exposure.
If you publish the port to `0.0.0.0` anyway, you have made a deliberate
decision that this project's threat model does not cover
(`planning/SECURITY-THREAT-MODEL.md`).
## Pointing the storyteller at Ollama
The endpoint, the model and the generation parameters are **runtime settings
stored in the database**, not environment variables. There is no API key field:
M2 removed it along with the cloud providers, and Ollama does not use one. Set
them on the app's Settings page, or with one request:
```bash
curl -X PUT http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/settings \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"endpoint_url":"http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1","model":"qwen2.5:3b-instruct",
"api_mode":"chat","max_output_tokens":200,
"context_token_budget":4096}'
```
`POST /api/settings/test` (the **Test connection** button) returns
`{"ok": true, "models": [...]}` and is the fastest way to tell a wrong endpoint
from a missing model. When it fails it says which kind of failure it was, and
they need different things done about them:
| `kind` | What it means |
| --- | --- |
| `rejected` | The endpoint is outside the policy below. Not a network problem. |
| `unreachable` | Nothing answered. Ollama is not running there, or the port is wrong. |
| `tls` | The certificate did not verify — install the CA (see below). |
| `timeout` | It accepted the connection and then said nothing. |
| `http` | It answered with an error status; the body is included. |
A successful test also warns when the endpoint is reachable but has no model by
the configured name, which is the commonest way for a correct endpoint to still
fail every turn.
### Which endpoints are allowed
`backend/app/endpoints.py` decides, and it is deliberately narrow: **loopback,
your own LAN, or nothing.** The allowed networks are `127.0.0.0/8`, the three
RFC1918 ranges, link-local, IPv6 loopback and unique-local, and `100.64.0.0/10`
(carrier-grade NAT, which is what a mesh VPN such as Tailscale hands out).
Every address the endpoint's hostname resolves to must be in one of them. A
public address is refused, a name resolving to both a private and a public
address is refused, and known cloud inference hosts are refused by name so the
error says why rather than looking like a DNS fault.
The rule is applied when you save the endpoint *and* again before every
outbound request, so a database edited by hand or a hostname that starts
resolving somewhere new cannot turn a local install into an exfiltration path.
There is no setting to relax it.
### A future media provider would be held to a stricter rule
The same file decides, plus one extra condition. A media endpoint — a local image
or speech generator, when one is eventually supported — must be **loopback**, not
merely on your LAN (`backend/app/media/providers.py`,
`endpoint_rejection_reason`). A picture of a scene carries the scene with it, and
a GPU that renders your campaign is a machine you are sitting at.
Nothing to configure today: no media provider ships, the registry is empty, and
there is deliberately no media endpoint setting to fill in. The rule exists so
that whoever adds the first provider finds it already there.
### Same host (the default)
```text
endpoint_url = http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1
```
Nothing else to do. Ollama's own default is to listen on loopback.
### An Ollama on another machine on your trusted LAN
Supported and explicitly configured — never guessed, never discovered.
On the **inference machine**, tell Ollama to accept connections from the LAN,
because it binds loopback by default:
```bash
OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0:11434 ollama serve
```
On the **storyteller machine**, set the endpoint to that host's address:
```text
endpoint_url = http://192.168.1.50:11434/v1
```
Use an IP address or a name your own network resolves. Then:
- the storyteller UI/API stays on `127.0.0.1` — do not change the listener;
- prompts, story text, retrieved memories and embedding inputs all travel to
that host, so it has to be one you control, on a network you trust;
- the inference machine needs the models installed, not the storyteller;
- no Internet is involved in either direction.
A LAN endpoint is accepted because it is on one of the allowed networks above.
Nothing else about it is special.
#### If that endpoint is HTTPS with your own CA
Some inference hosts are only reachable over TLS. A StartOS server is one: it
serves Ollama over HTTPS with a certificate from its own local CA, and plain
HTTP redirects to it.
Install that CA on the machine running the storyteller, the same way you would
for the browser — on Debian and Ubuntu:
```bash
sudo cp your-ca.crt /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/
sudo update-ca-certificates
```
then use the `https://` URL and the hostname the certificate is issued for:
```text
endpoint_url = https://inference.lan:8443/v1
```
The application verifies against the machine's CA store **and** the `certifi`
bundle (`backend/app/tlstrust.py`), so a CA you installed at the OS level is
honoured, exactly as `curl` and your browser honour it. Public certificates
keep working unchanged.
There is deliberately **no** setting to skip verification. If a connection is
refused with `CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED`, the CA is not installed where the
storyteller can see it, or the URL's hostname does not match the certificate —
`openssl s_client -connect host:port` will say which. In a container, remember
the CA has to be inside the image or bind-mounted; the host's store is not
visible from within.
## Tests
```bash
cd backend && .venv/bin/python -m pytest tests/ -q # the backend suite
cd frontend && npm test # the component suite (M8)
cd frontend && npm run lint && npm run build
```
Fourteen backend tests skip without something the machine may not have: seven
need a second machine or an environment the suite cannot create, and the rest
are the real-model tests below.
The suite takes about fifteen minutes. Several files spawn genuine server
processes — a restart is only evidence if the process really went away — and
those dominate the wall clock.
### The frontend component suite
M8 added one, because until M8 there was none — the browser was covered by real
Firefox runs at each milestone's closeout and by nothing in between. It is
Vitest and Testing Library over jsdom, and it runs in about two seconds:
```bash
cd frontend && npm test # once
cd frontend && npm run test:watch # while working
```
It covers the deterministic browser behaviour M8 owns: which history controls
are enabled and why, the take selector, the Save Point and delete confirmations,
what the State panel shows and does not, knowledge classification and semantic
status, the context inspector's sections, the model-empty and model-unavailable
states, how failures are presented, the dialog focus trap, and that the reserved
dictation control never touches the microphone. Several tests assert the absence
of branch vocabulary in the surfaces a reader uses.
`markdown.test.jsx` is the security one. Narrator prose and imported text both
reach the renderer, so it is where H06 and H07 are decided: markup in the source
never becomes markup in the page, a `javascript:` URL never becomes an href, and
a remote image is a placeholder rather than a request.
**It does not replace the real-browser runs.** jsdom has no layout, no
navigation and no network, so scroll behaviour, streaming, a genuine process
restart and the CSP are all outside its reach. Each milestone's closeout drives
a real Firefox over WebDriver, and that evidence is recorded in the milestone
report.
Two files are the M1 regression guards.
`test_offline_assets.py` fails if the tokenizer starts fetching its table
again, if a remote font or stylesheet comes back, or if the CSP names a remote
origin. Two of its checks read the built SPA under `frontend/dist/` and skip
when it has not been built, so run `npm run build` before treating a green
suite as complete evidence.
`test_tls_trust.py` fails if outbound verification is weakened, if a public CA
is lost from the union, or if a new HTTP client is added without the shared
verification context.
M5 added `test_narrative_state.py`, which fails if the state stops being
genre-neutral, if an event outside the allowlist is ever applied, if a malformed
proposal mutates anything, if campaign canon stops outranking the narration, or
if a turn's narration and its state can be committed apart from each other.
`test_narrative_realistic.py` is the one suite that needs a real model, and it is
skipped unless you point it at one:
```bash
AIDND_TEST_ENDPOINT=http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1 \
AIDND_TEST_MODEL=qwen2.5:3b-instruct \
backend/.venv/bin/python -m pytest backend/tests/test_narrative_realistic.py -v -s
```
It exists because Phase 0B found that structured-state behaviour can look
correct on a small prompt and fail under a full one — and it has already earned
its place, catching a case where a model echoed its own instruction into the
narration.
M7 added five files. `test_imported_knowledge.py` is the acceptance contract —
G01-G10, C05, F05/F06's imported halves, I05, H06-H09, campaign isolation,
lexical retrieval without embeddings, a bounded knowledge budget, deletion that
preserves historical prompt evidence, hidden Canon, stale Canon against current
state, and an abandoned line of story failing to influence the retrieval query.
`test_knowledge_chunking.py` fails if chunking stops being deterministic or
starts producing fragments or giants. `test_knowledge_retrieval_quality.py`
fails if class stops settling ties, if irrelevant Canon starts winning on class
alone, if the hybrid merge duplicates a passage, or if suppression crosses a
class. `test_knowledge_performance.py` fails if any knowledge read grows a query
per source or per passage, or if candidates stop being bounded in SQL.
`test_knowledge_migration.py` fails if a pre-M7 database stops opening, or if the
FTS5 index stops travelling with the table it indexes.
`test_knowledge_real_model.py` is M7's real-provider test and skips without an
endpoint. It mocks nothing between itself and Ollama: a real `Settings` row, the
real factory, a real embedding request, real stored vectors, real hybrid
retrieval, and a real prompt.
```bash
AIDND_TEST_ENDPOINT=https://inference.lan:8443/v1 \
AIDND_TEST_EMBED_MODEL=nomic-embed-text \
backend/.venv/bin/python -m pytest backend/tests/test_knowledge_real_model.py -v -s
```
M4 added `test_save_points.py`, which fails if restoring a Save Point starts
deleting history, stops going through the active head, forks on its own, lets a
Save Point on one campaign be restored through another, or lets deleting a branch
take a Save Point with it. It also fails if listing Save Points goes back to one
query per Save Point, or starts fetching narration to render the list.
`test_process_restart.py` is the durability guard: it starts the application as a
real subprocess, kills it, and starts a second one against the same database. A
Save Point that survived only because a Python object was still alive would pass
an in-process test and fail a user's restart.
M2 added two more. `test_endpoint_policy.py` fails if the set of reachable
addresses widens, or if either place the rule is applied stops applying it —
it resolves hostnames through a stub, so it tests the policy rather than
whatever DNS the machine has. `test_local_only_surface.py` fails if a removed
subsystem comes back as a route, if an API key becomes settable again, if the
model timeout stops being configurable or becomes unbounded, or if a supported
start path stops binding loopback.
## Why a long campaign is not slow in proportion to its length
An inference server caches the prompt it has already processed, keyed on the
**prefix**. While a story only grows at the end, each turn re-uses that cache and
pays for its own new tokens alone. Once the context budget is full, though, the
history window has to give something up — and a window that gives up its *oldest*
action every turn changes the prompt near the front, which throws the cache away
and makes the server re-read almost the whole thing, every turn.
So the window moves in blocks. `context/builder.py` snaps the oldest included
action to a boundary and holds it there for several turns, then steps. Measured
against the reference deployment on real builder output, at an 8,192-token budget:
| | Per turn |
| --- | --- |
| Window held, story grew by one action | 14-20 s |
| Window stepped (one turn in three) | 333-338 s |
| **Mean over whole cycles** | **124.0 s** |
| Window sliding every turn, as before | 362.4 s |
The cost is history depth: right after a step the window holds up to a block
fewer actions than the budget would allow. `TRIM_FRACTION` bounds that at a
quarter of the window, and it is the one number to change if you would rather
trade recent history for speed, or the reverse.
The saving grows with the block, and the block grows with the budget — so the
larger the context window, the more this is worth. `history["floor_depth"]` and
`history["trim_block"]` are in every context report, and a `floor_depth` that is
the same on two consecutive turns is the prompt's prefix having been preserved.
## The release-validation harnesses
M11 added six runnable harnesses under `backend/tools/`. They are the evidence
behind `planning/reports/M11-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md`, and they live in the
repository so a reviewer can re-run them rather than take the report's word for
anything. None is part of the application and none is imported by it.
**Write their output somewhere durable, never `/tmp`.** `--out` is required on
every harness precisely so the location is a decision rather than a default, and
the examples below use `$HOME/m11-evidence`. A reboot clears `/tmp`, and a
long-run campaign is hours of evidence that cannot be reproduced by re-reading a
file. One run was lost exactly that way; §G.6 of the M11 report records it. Snap Firefox independently refuses a WebDriver file path under `/tmp`
and needs one under `$HOME`, so `$HOME` is the only location the browser harness
works from in any case.
```bash
cd backend
mkdir -p "$HOME/m11-evidence"
# The 100-turn release campaign (M01-M04): real narrator, genuine process
# restarts, every history operation. Hours, not minutes.
AIDND_TEST_ENDPOINT=https://<host>:<port>/v1 \

.venv/bin/python -m tools.contrast_audit
```
### Resuming the long run, and timing it out
A hundred turns is hours of wall clock, and the first release attempt lost one at
turn 97 to a host crash. The harness now checkpoints `resume.json` into `--out`
after the prologue, after every scheduled operation and after every turn, and
`--resume` continues from it. The file is written under a temporary name and
renamed, so a crash during the write cannot leave a half-parsed one.
`resume.json` is operational state rather than evidence: `timeline.jsonl` stays
the append-only record, a resumed session appends to it, and a finished run
deletes its `resume.json`. That makes the file's presence mean exactly one
thing — there is an unfinished run in this directory — and the harness refuses
to start a fresh campaign on top of one, because two campaigns interleaved in a
single timeline and database are worse evidence than none. It refuses a
directory holding a `campaign.db` with no checkpoint for the same reason.
How long a turn takes is the inference host's characteristic, not the
application's, so the timeout is an option rather than a constant:
| Flag | Default | What it does |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `--turn-timeout` | 1800 | Seconds the application waits for one narrator reply — it becomes `model_timeout_seconds`, so the settings schema's 30..3600 bound applies. The harness waits 300s longer, so the application's own error arrives inside the stream rather than being cut off at the socket. |
| `--max-consecutive-failures` | 5 | Unaccepted turns in a row before the run stops, writes `summary.json` with `status: aborted`, and leaves a `resume.json` that `--resume` can carry on. |
Measure your host before lowering `--turn-timeout`. On the M11 reference
deployment a turn cost 229-291 seconds at the recommended window; a slower host
can exceed the 600 seconds this harness used to hard-code, and an overrun turn is
a lost turn.
### Logging the inference host during a long run
A long run is the heaviest sustained load an inference host sees. In M11 a GPU
host dropped its GPU off the PCIe bus (`NVRM: Xid 79`) half a minute after a
100-turn run finished. Nothing on disk could say whether power, heat or the link
caused it (M11 report, §E.1). **For every long run against a GPU host, start this
logging on that host first and stop it only when the run has finished.**
Run each command in its own terminal on the inference host. `tee` writes each
line as it arrives, so what happened in the seconds before a crash or a forced
reboot survives on disk.
```bash
# Power, temperature, utilisation and PCIe link state, once a second
nvidia-smi --query-gpu=timestamp,pcie.link.gen.current,pcie.link.width.current,power.draw,temperature.gpu,utilization.gpu \
--format=csv -l 1 | tee "$HOME/gpu-link-$(date +%F-%H%M).csv"
# The driver's own sampling: power, utilisation, clocks, memory, ECC and throttling
nvidia-smi dmon -s pucvmet -d 5 | tee "$HOME/gpu-dmon-$(date +%F-%H%M).log"
# Kernel and Ollama messages, live
journalctl -f -k -u ollama | tee "$HOME/ollama-kernel-watch-$(date +%F-%H%M).log"
```
If the GPU faults, find the moment and then read what the card was doing just
before it:
```bash
grep -iE 'xid|fallen off|nvrm' "$HOME"/ollama-kernel-watch-*.log
awk -F', ' 'NR>1 && $4+0 > max {max=$4+0; at=$1} END {print "peak W", max, "at", at}' "$HOME"/gpu-link-*.csv
```
A fault that follows sustained draw at the card's power limit points to power
delivery. A fault with the link below its usual generation under load points to
the connection. A fault with neither is still worth recording, because it rules
both out. These commands were verified against NVIDIA driver 580 and Ollama
0.34.
`tools/m11_webdriver.py` is the W3C WebDriver client the browser harness uses.
It exists so browser evidence needs no Selenium in the dependency surface, and
it documents the one environment quirk that matters here: a snap Firefox will
not open a file the driver names under `/tmp`, but will under `$HOME`.
## Backing up, and getting a campaign back
There are two recovery tools and they answer different questions. Using the
wrong one is the most common way to be surprised later, so they are described
together.
| | Campaign export | Database backup |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Covers | one campaign | every campaign, and your settings |
| Shape | a JSON file you can read | a copy of the SQLite database |
| Moves between machines | **yes** — this is the supported way | no; it is this machine's database |
| Taken from | Export, on a campaign | Settings → *Back up everything on this machine* |
| Restored by | Import campaign, on the library screen | replacing the database file, below |
### Exporting and importing a campaign
Export is on each campaign in the library, and in the campaign's own Settings
panel. It writes one `.json` file holding the whole campaign: the story and its
entire retained tree, the branch you are on and **the exact position you are
reading at** — including one you undid back to — every alternate take, your Save
Points, the authoritative state and its per-position snapshots, the state
history that explains it, your imported knowledge with its classifications, the
summaries and memories, and the prompt each turn was actually given.
Import is on the library screen and takes that file back, into this or any other
installation. Nothing about the file refers to the machine that wrote it: the
imported files come back from their content, not from a path, and no setting of
yours is changed by importing somebody's campaign.
Two things it deliberately does **not** carry: your inference endpoint and model
settings, which describe your machine rather than the campaign, and the
rebuildable search indexes, which are rebuilt from the imported content before
the import returns.
**A campaign imports whether or not the model that wrote it is installed here.**
Recovering a campaign and being able to play it on are separate questions; the
first never depends on the second.
### Backing up the whole database
Settings → Advanced → *Back up everything on this machine*. It writes a verified
copy into a `backups/` directory beside the database itself, and tells you where.
It is a real backup rather than a file copy. It uses SQLite's online backup API,
so it is safe to take **while you are playing** — a `cp` of a live database can
read one page before a transaction and another after it, producing a file that
opens, reports a schema, and is quietly missing rows. The copy is checked with
`PRAGMA quick_check` before it is kept, an existing backup is never overwritten,
and a failure leaves nothing behind.
You can also take one from the command line, or from `cron`:
```bash
curl -s -X POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/backups | python3 -m json.tool
```
### Restoring a whole database
There is deliberately no restore button, because restoring means replacing the
file the running application has open — which is how you lose both copies at
once. It is a three-step procedure and each step needs the application stopped:
```bash
# 1. Stop the application. Nothing below is safe while it is running.
# (Ctrl-C the server, or `docker compose down`.)
# 2. Keep what is there now, whatever state it is in. You may want it back.
mv backend/data.db backend/data.db.before-restore
# 3. Put the backup in its place, and start the application again.
cp backend/backups/adventure-storyteller-20260907-043000.db backend/data.db
```
Check the file before you trust it, and check it again after starting:
```bash
sqlite3 backend/backups/adventure-storyteller-20260907-043000.db 'PRAGMA quick_check;'
# -> ok
```
The database path is `backend/data.db` by default, and whatever `AIDND_DB_PATH`
names otherwise — in Docker that is the mounted volume.
There is one file to move and no others: this build leaves SQLite in its default
rollback-journal mode, so there are no `-wal` or `-shm` companions beside the
database (`PRAGMA journal_mode` reports `delete`). A build that switched to WAL
would have to move those too, and leaving them behind would pair a new database
with an old write-ahead log.
**Prefer the campaign export for anything smaller than "everything".** Restoring
a whole database rolls every campaign back to the moment the backup was taken,
including the ones you did not mean to touch. To recover one campaign, export it
and import it.
## The context window your Ollama actually enforces
**Check this before a long campaign.** The application budgets a prompt up to
`Settings.context_token_budget` (16,384 by default). Ollama enforces its own
input window, and when it sees no VRAM it defaults to **4,096**:
```
level=INFO msg="vram-based default context" total_vram="0 B" default_num_ctx=4096
```
Confirm what yours is:
```bash
curl -s http://127.0.0.1:11434/api/ps | python3 -m json.tool | grep context_length
```
If that number is smaller than your budget, Ollama silently truncates the input
— and `llama.cpp` drops the **oldest** tokens, which in this application is the
system block: the narrator rules and the campaign canon. The symptom is a
narrator that forgets canon deep into a long session, with nothing on screen
explaining why.
**The application now checks, and will not over-budget.** Since M11 it asks the
server what window your model actually gets — `/api/ps` for a model that is
loaded, `/api/show` for one that is not — and caps the prompt to that number. A
4,096-token server therefore no longer receives a 16,384-token prompt: the
campaign gets less history than the setting asks for, which is a visible,
explicable loss rather than a silent one, and Settings' **Test connection**
reports the window it found or says plainly that it could not check.
That does not make the window *bigger*, and the rest of this section is still
how you do that.
**On a server that is not Ollama, tell the application the window yourself.**
The check above uses Ollama's *native* API, which vLLM, llama.cpp's own server
and the rest do not serve — so the window comes back unverified and the budget
is left at whatever is configured. Set **`context_window_override`** in settings
to the window you launched that server with:
```bash
curl -X PUT http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/settings \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"context_window_override": 8192}'
```
Prompts are then capped to it. It is used *only* when the server could not be
asked — a window the server did report always wins, so this can never be a way
to over-budget an Ollama that answered — and it does not count as verification:
the turn's provenance still records that nothing checked the number. Send
`null` to remove it. Nothing here validates the figure against the server, so an
override larger than the real window puts you back to silent truncation; take it
from how you started the server, not from the model card.
**Setting it per request does not work from this application.** Ollama's
OpenAI-compatible endpoint accepts `num_ctx` — nested in `options` or at the top
level — returns HTTP 200 and ignores it. Worse, it *reloads the model at its own
default*, so priming the server with a native `/api/chat` call first does not
help either: the app's next request resets the window.
**Bake it into a model instead.** The window travels with the model, and this
needs no shell access on the Ollama host — it is a normal API call:
```bash
curl http://127.0.0.1:11434/api/create -d '{
"model": "qwen2.5:3b-instruct-16k",
"from": "qwen2.5:3b-instruct",
"parameters": {"num_ctx": 16384}
}'
```
The derived model shares the base model's blobs, so it costs a manifest. It then
appears in `/v1/models`, which is the listing the Settings model picker reads —
select it there and the storyteller gets the full window through its ordinary
OpenAI-compatible path. Remove it with `POST /api/delete` when you are done.
Where you *do* control the server environment, `OLLAMA_CONTEXT_LENGTH=16384`
does the same job. Either way a larger window costs roughly proportionally more
KV cache.
If you would rather not raise it at all, you no longer need to do anything: the
application caps itself to what the server reports. Setting **How much story to
send** to the same number simply makes the intent explicit.
**This matters most on the machine you import to.** A campaign carries its
history, not the window the machine that wrote it had, and a long imported
campaign fills a prompt on its very first turn — so a deployment that has applied
neither the derived model above nor a matching budget meets its ceiling
immediately rather than gradually. Importing succeeds either way, and since M11
the first turn afterwards is *capped* rather than truncated — so what a small
window costs is history, not the canon at the front of the prompt. It is still
worth giving the model its window before playing an imported campaign: a
4,096-token context on a hundred-turn story is a much shorter memory than the
story was written with.
## What was made offline-safe, and how to check
Two runtime downloads were removed in Milestone M1. Both were invisible on a
machine that had been online once, which is exactly why they need tests.
**The tokenizer.** `tiktoken.get_encoding("cl100k_base")` downloads a 1.7 MB
BPE table on first use, and the context builder counts tokens on every turn, so
the first story turn on an air-gapped install died with a `ConnectionError`.
The table is vendored at `backend/app/context/vendor/cl100k_base.tiktoken` and
`backend/app/context/encoding.py` builds the encoding from it, verifying its
SHA-256 against the digest `tiktoken` itself pins.
**The fonts.** The SPA linked `fonts.googleapis.com` from `index.html`, so
every page load fetched a stylesheet and font files from Google. The three
families are self-hosted under `frontend/public/fonts/`, declared in
`frontend/src/styles/fonts.css`, and re-vendored by
`python3 frontend/tools/vendor_fonts.py`. The CSP in `backend/app/main.py` now
names no remote origin at all.
To convince yourself on a machine that has already been online, run the app
with no route out rather than trusting a cold cache:
```bash
docker network create --internal offline
docker run -d --name ollama --network offline -v ollama-models:/root/.ollama ollama/ollama
docker build -t storyteller .
# The app shares Ollama's network namespace, so Ollama is on its loopback and
# neither has a route to the Internet.
docker run -d --name app --network container:ollama -v story-data:/data \
storyteller uvicorn app.main:app --host 127.0.0.1 --port 8000
docker exec app python -c "import socket; socket.create_connection(('1.1.1.1',443),timeout=4)"
# -> OSError: Network is unreachable, and story turns still work
```
`planning/archive/milestone-reports/M1-BASELINE-REPORT.md` records the run this procedure is
taken from, including the packet captures.
## Things still inherited from upstream
M2 removed the hosted, cloud, account, analytics, Postgres/Render and QuickJS
scripting surfaces outright — `PROVENANCE.md` lists exactly what went. What is
left of upstream that a newcomer might report as a defect:
- **Inert legacy tables and columns.** Five tables and four columns M2 emptied
of meaning are still in the schema, unmapped, so an M1-era campaign database
opens unchanged. Nothing reads or writes them. A cleanup migration waits for
the schema to settle after M5 (`planning/BUILD-MILESTONES.md`).
- **Dual-dialect migration code.** `backend/app/migrations.py` still carries
SQLite/Postgres branches from upstream, although Postgres support itself is
gone and SQLite is the only store. Same cleanup, same milestone.
- **`.github/workflows/ci.yml`** is upstream's GitHub Actions pipeline. This
repository lives on a self-hosted Gitea; the workflow is kept for provenance
and is not what runs the tests here.
- **A thin `components.jsx`.** What is left of upstream's shared component
module is a toast host, a file picker, a JSON download and an auto-growing
textarea. M8 removed the rest with the screens that used them — the scenario
art generator, the placeholder modal, the story-card row.
(Removed from this list by M8: **no frontend tests**. There is a component suite
now — see Tests above.)

# Provenance
This repository is the Adventure Storyteller production fork. Its application
code comes from **AI-DnD**, and its planning package (`planning/`) is original
to this project.
## Upstream
| | |
| --- | --- |
| Project | AI-DnD |
| Repository | <https://github.com/parththakkar106/AI-DnD> |

The commit is the one pinned by `planning/DECISIONS/009-ai-dnd-production-base.md`
after Phase 0B. It was not substituted for a newer upstream commit.
## How the fork is wired
Upstream history is *in* this repository rather than copied out of it. The
import is a merge of the pinned commit with `--allow-unrelated-histories`, so:
- `git log d72f7c1bda0f34fccd84afb7a25c34eb01c901de` shows the real upstream
history, not a squashed snapshot;
- upstream code paths are unchanged (`backend/`, `frontend/`, …), so a later
upstream commit can still be fetched and cherry-picked against matching
files. Upstream's own documentation trees, `plan/` and `docs/`, were removed
on 2026-09-03: they described the hosted, scripted, multi-user product this
fork is not. They remain in this repository's history and in upstream;
- the planning package that predates the fork keeps its own history on the
other parent of the merge.
To re-verify from a fresh clone:
```bash
git remote add upstream https://github.com/parththakkar106/AI-DnD.git
git fetch --no-tags upstream
git cat-file -t d72f7c1bda0f34fccd84afb7a25c34eb01c901de # -> commit
git merge-base --is-ancestor d72f7c1bda0f34fccd84afb7a25c34eb01c901de HEAD && echo "in this history"
```
## License
Upstream is MIT. `LICENSE` is upstream's file, unmodified, and the copyright
notice stays with it. The MIT terms require that the notice travel with the
code and with substantial portions of it; keep `LICENSE` in place in any
redistribution of this fork, including a packaged build.
Work done in this repository after the fork is a derivative of that MIT-licensed
code.
## Vendored third-party assets
Both were added by Milestone M1 to remove a runtime Internet dependency. Each
is redistributable and each has a regeneration path in the tree, so neither is
an opaque binary nobody can rebuild.
### `backend/app/context/vendor/cl100k_base.tiktoken`
The BPE merge table for OpenAI's `cl100k_base` tokenizer, used for context
budgeting only — no model of OpenAI's is ever called.
- Source: `https://openaipublic.blob.core.windows.net/encodings/cl100k_base.tiktoken`
- SHA-256: `223921b76ee99bde995b7ff738513eef100fb51d18c93597a113bcffe865b2a7`,
which is the digest `tiktoken` itself pins for that URL, and which
`backend/app/context/encoding.py` re-checks every time it builds the encoding.
- Published by OpenAI for use with `tiktoken` (MIT).
### `frontend/public/fonts/*.woff2`
Cinzel, Crimson Pro and Inter, Latin and Latin Extended subsets, as variable
fonts. All three are licensed under the SIL Open Font License 1.1; the license
text ships beside them as `OFL-cinzel.txt`, `OFL-crimsonpro.txt` and
`OFL-inter.txt`, which is what the OFL requires of a redistribution.
Regenerate with `python3 frontend/tools/vendor_fonts.py`, which also rewrites
`frontend/src/styles/fonts.css`.
## What this fork changed in Milestone M7
M7 is additive. It builds the imported knowledge library the specification asks
for as a **separate first-class subsystem**, which is the Phase 0B decision
recorded in `planning/IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md` §73: AI-DnD's Story Cards do
not carry the classification, provenance, chunking, index, lifecycle or
inspection an imported-knowledge system needs, and they were not promoted into
one. Story Cards are untouched and still work exactly as upstream left them;
nothing in the new subsystem reads or writes one.
- `backend/app/knowledge/` (new) — the whole subsystem: the three classes and
their prompt framing, a deterministic heading-aware chunker, the SQLite FTS5
lexical index, local Ollama embeddings, hybrid retrieval and reranking, and the
budgeted injection into the prompt.
- `backend/app/routers/adventures/knowledge.py` (new) — import, list, inspect,
reclassify, enable/disable, delete, reindex and status. The import surface is a
multipart upload; **no endpoint anywhere accepts a filesystem path**.
- `backend/app/models.py` — three new tables (`knowledge_sources`,
`knowledge_chunks`, `knowledge_embeddings`) and the DDL hook that carries the
FTS5 virtual table with the table it indexes.
- `backend/app/migrations.py` — version 92.
- `backend/app/context/builder.py` — the knowledge sections, their budget, and
the provenance record in the context snapshot.
- `backend/app/bundle.py` — the export carries source content and the reader's
judgements about it; passages, index rows and vectors are rebuilt on import.
- `backend/app/derived.py`, `backend/app/memorybank.py` — a `knowledge` kind of
derived work, and the post-turn pass that catches up vectors an import could
not build.
- `frontend/src/pages/Play/panels/KnowledgePanel.jsx` (new),
`frontend/src/styles/knowledge.css` (new), and additions to the Insights panel
— a utilitarian browser surface for the whole lifecycle. Imported text is
displayed as inert text and is never rendered as HTML.
- **One new runtime dependency**, `python-multipart` — Starlette's multipart
parser, pure Python, Apache-2.0, no dependencies of its own. It is what makes
the upload surface possible and is the reason no path is ever accepted.
No network path was added. Embeddings go through the same
`OpenAICompatibleProvider` the memory bank uses, so the endpoint allowlist, the
request-time re-check and the OS/private-CA trust union all apply unchanged
(ADR 011). Lexical indexing is local SQLite and touches no socket at all.
## What this fork changed in Milestone M2
M2 is subtractive. It reduced the inherited application to the intended
single-user, local-first trust boundary. **Nothing was added that upstream did
not have, except the endpoint policy and the tests that hold these removals in
place.**
Removed in full: campaign scripting and the QuickJS sandbox; multi-user
accounts, guest sessions, login, registration and the shared demo key; the
visitor analytics tables, dashboard and beacon; the access log; per-IP and
per-user rate limiting and quotas; Render deployment config; Postgres/Neon
support; cloud inference providers and the API-key field; session-cookie
signing and API-key encryption at rest.
Added: `backend/app/endpoints.py`, which decides what an inference endpoint may
be, and a configurable model timeout.
Three database tables (`scripts`, `adventure_scripts`, `analytics_daily`,
`analytics_visitor_days`, `access_log`) and four columns (`adventures.script_state`,
`settings.api_key`, `users.demo_turns_used`, `users.demo_turns_date`) are left
in place, unmapped or inert, so that an existing M1 campaign database opens
unchanged. They are not product functionality and nothing reads or writes them.
## What this fork changed in Milestone M1
Nothing was removed from upstream. The changes are the offline/locality
hardening M1 called for; see `planning/archive/milestone-reports/M1-BASELINE-REPORT.md` for the
evidence.
- `backend/app/context/encoding.py` (new) and `backend/app/context/builder.py` —
build `cl100k_base` from the vendored table instead of downloading it on
first use.
- `frontend/index.html`, `frontend/src/index.css`,
`frontend/src/styles/fonts.css` (new), `frontend/public/fonts/` (new),
`frontend/tools/vendor_fonts.py` (new) — self-hosted fonts in place of the
Google Fonts link.
- `backend/app/main.py` — CSP narrowed to same-origin, with the two Google
hosts dropped and `object-src` / `base-uri` / `form-action` added; `woff2`
registered so the self-hosted fonts are served with their real media type.
- `backend/app/tlstrust.py` (new), `backend/app/providers/openai_compatible.py`,
`backend/app/routers/settings.py` — outbound HTTPS verifies against the
machine's own CA store as well as certifi's, so a trusted-LAN Ollama with a
locally-issued certificate works. Verification is not relaxed.
- `start.sh`, `start.ps1`, `docker-compose.yml` — the storyteller listener is
explicitly loopback-bound.
- `backend/requirements.lock` (new) — the exact tested dependency closure.
- `backend/tests/test_offline_assets.py` and `backend/tests/test_tls_trust.py`
(new) — regression tests for the above.
- `DEVELOPMENT.md` (new) — environment setup and Ollama configuration.

# Adventure Storyteller
[![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-blue.svg)](LICENSE)
An interactive storytelling app that runs entirely on your own machine, with your own model.
Start a campaign from a short form and play an open-ended story where a local LLM narrates the
world, keeps track of what is true, and remembers what happened. Since M8 the browser has one
entry point — a campaign library — and one natural-language input; the scenario gallery and its
editor are gone from the interface, though the AI Dungeon-compatible scenario *format* is still
supported for import and export.
This is the **Adventure Storyteller** fork of [AI-DnD](https://github.com/parththakkar106/AI-DnD).
It is deliberately narrower than its upstream: single-user, local-only, and pointed at a model
you run yourself. The hosted deployment, the accounts and sessions, the cloud provider support,
the Postgres path, and the JavaScript scripting engine have all been removed rather than
disabled. What is left is a storyteller you can run offline.
> **Local-only, by design.** The app talks to one place — an Ollama-compatible endpoint on this
> machine or on a machine you control on your own network — and it refuses to be pointed at a
> public address. There is no telemetry, no account, no cloud inference, and nothing is fetched
> at runtime from the Internet.
>
> For the internals, read [`planning/TECHNICAL-DESIGN.md`](planning/TECHNICAL-DESIGN.md) and
> [`planning/CONTEXT-AND-MEMORY.md`](planning/CONTEXT-AND-MEMORY.md), which cover the context
> budgeting, the state model and the memory bank as this fork builds them.
Built with FastAPI and SQLAlchemy on the backend and React (Vite) on the frontend, storing
everything in one SQLite file.
On the play screen, the left rail carries live world state. The AI proposes changes each turn
and a Python engine decides what actually sticks; the chip under the narration reports what
changed. The `‹ 2/2 ›` under a turn steps between the takes it has, and writing below a take
that isn't the live one starts a new branch.
## Features
- **The full play loop, in one box.** You write what you do or say in a single
natural-language field — an action and a piece of quoted dialogue are both just what you
wrote — with **Continue** for a beat you do not act in and a **Story direction** toggle for
speaking to the narrator rather than in the story. Responses stream (SSE), and Undo, Redo,
Retry and Edit sit beside the box. Correcting narrator prose does not overwrite it: the
correction becomes a new continuation carrying the state it implies, and the original
narration keeps its own future as retained history. Reasoning models are supported: the
narrator's thinking streams into a collapsible panel with its own token budget.
- **Retained history, without a tree to manage.** Underneath, the story is a tree: any turn
can hold more than one **take**, and `‹ 2/4 ›` steps between them. Stepping is free — the
story below simply empties, and the server is told nothing. Writing below a take that is not
the live one is what starts a different continuation. Branches borrow their ancestors' turns
instead of copying them, so one costs about 100 bytes, and a 20-fork story loads within 1% of
the same story flat (`backend/app/tree.py`, `backend/app/context/lineage.py`).
**None of that vocabulary reaches the reader.** M8 removed the branch panel and the tree
overlay from the browser: what you get is Undo, Redo, Retry, takes, Save Points and Restore,
and nothing on screen says branch, fork, node or head. The mechanism is unchanged and still
fully tested — this is a decision about what you are asked to understand, not about what the
product can do.
- **Authoritative narrative state, and the application owns it.** The story tracks who exists,
where they are, what they hold, what is true, how they are tied to each other, and what is
still open — as generic entities, facts, relationships and threads, with no genre baked in.
The same schema holds a silver key in an abbey and a data crystal on an orbital station.
The AI proposes **typed events with absolute values** (`set_possession`, `add_fact`,
`set_current_location` …), and a Python validator decides what is accepted: unknown event
types are refused, references must resolve, campaign canon outranks the narration, and the
machine-readable block never reaches the reader (`backend/app/narrative/`). Every accepted
change is recorded with what it was before and which turn caused it, so the Story State panel
can show what changed and why. You can correct it by hand, and your correction outranks the
story.
- **A context engine you can account for.** Memory, the author's note, the campaign's own
rules, the authoritative state, the summary that applies here, and the retrieved imported
passages are assembled under one token budget, in an order chosen so that a section which
changes does not re-price the cached prefix above it (`backend/app/context/builder.py`).
**And the budget is the one your server will actually read.** Ollama enforces a context
window of its own — 4,096 by default on a machine with no VRAM — and a larger prompt is not
refused, it is silently trimmed from the *oldest* end, which here is the narrator's rules and
your campaign's canon. The application asks the server what window your model gets and caps
the prompt to it, so what a small window costs is history rather than the canon at the front
(`backend/app/contextwindow.py`). If it cannot check, it says so instead of assuming — and
on a server it cannot ask, which is any server that is not Ollama, `context_window_override`
in settings lets you state the window so the prompt is still capped. A window the server
itself reported always wins over that, and a declared one is never reported as verified.
**Story cards** — AI Dungeon's world-info primitive, inherited with the fork — are kept as
legacy data and travel with an export, but they no longer reach the narrator. A keyword-matched
card used to arrive in front of it as a world fact with no class, no visibility, no source and
nothing to switch it off, competing with your imported Canon for the same budget; the knowledge
library below replaces it, and does all of that explicitly.
- **Total prompt transparency.** Every turn stores the exact prompt sent to the model.
**Inspect context** on any narrator turn opens a readable account of what it was given —
what it remembered, what it read, what it believes, and what each part cost — with the
assembled prompt itself kept as an advanced section rather than opening on a wall of text.
A passage that came from an imported file links back to the file it came from.
- **Auto-summarization and Memory Bank.** The modern AI Dungeon memory system: AI-generated
memories every few actions, a running story summary, and embedding-based retrieval that
pulls old-but-relevant facts back into context, with similarity scores visible in the
context inspector
(`backend/app/memorybank.py`).
- **An imported knowledge library, classified by how much authority it has.** Import your own
local `.txt` and `.md` files — a setting bible, character notes, research, a passage whose
voice you want the prose to have — as **Canon**, **Reference** or **Inspiration**. The class
is not a label: it decides the words the passage is framed with in the prompt, the weight it
carries when passages are ranked, and which budget it competes in when the context is tight.
Canon can establish what is true; Reference informs detail without establishing anything;
Inspiration influences tone and introduces no facts at all. Retrieval is **hybrid and local**:
a SQLite FTS5 index finds the names and invented terms an embedding is worst at, local Ollama
embeddings find what you meant when your words differ from the file's, and the two are merged,
de-duplicated and reranked by relevance × class. Lexical search is a supported production
path, not a fallback — the library works with no embedding model at all. Canon you mark
**always include** is supplied on every turn whether or not the scene resembles it, and Canon
you mark **narrator only** is given to the narrator with instructions not to let the
protagonist know it. Every passage that reaches a prompt is listed in the context inspector with its file,
class, heading, passage number, scores and token cost, and that record is kept in the turn, so
deleting a source never erases the evidence of what an old turn was shown
(`backend/app/knowledge/`).
- **Imported text is data, never instruction.** Every imported passage is delimited in the
prompt as untrusted data with the authority order stated in words, so "ignore all previous
instructions" inside a file is a sentence in a file. Nothing is fetched: a URL in a source is
text, a remote Markdown image never loads, and no endpoint anywhere takes a filesystem path —
a source arrives as an upload, so there is no path for a traversal to escape from. Imported
content is displayed as inert text and never rendered as HTML.
- **Undo, Redo, and retry that roll back state and delete nothing.** Undo moves where the story
is being read; it removes no accepted turn, so Redo can walk forward into the turns it stepped
over. Both restore the world state from a per-node snapshot rather than just the text, and a
memory derived from a turn now behind the head stops being retrieved without being deleted or
re-embedded. Writing a new turn below a moved-back head is the moment the story forks: the
displaced future stays on the line it was written for, and ordinary Redo stops offering it.
Nothing a retry replaces is discarded either — the old attempt stays as another take of that
turn, one keystroke and one click from becoming a branch of its own.
- **Save Points.** Name a moment — "Before entering the abbey" — keep playing,
restart the app, and come back to it. Restoring one moves the story back to
that moment and deletes nothing: the turns you wrote after it stay, Redo still
walks forward into them, and writing something different from the Save Point
is what starts a new line while the old one is kept. A Save Point is a name for
a position and holds no copy of the story, so restoring it is the same
movement Undo makes (`backend/app/routers/adventures/checkpoints.py`,
`backend/app/head.py`). They last until *you* delete them: deleting one deletes
no story, and deleting a branch a Save Point is kept on is refused until you
remove the Save Point yourself, so nothing takes a named moment away behind
your back.
- **Import and export, as a recovery contract.** A campaign exports as one JSON file,
`ai-dnd-adventure-v3`, and imports into a clean install on another machine. It carries the whole
tree — every branch, every take, the fork points, which branches the story has left behind, the
Save Points and the position it is being read at — and, since it is meant to be *recovery*
rather than a copy of the text, everything that explains that story: the authoritative state
and the typed events behind it, **the exact prompt each turn was given and the passages it was
shown**, the summaries with the coordinates that decide whether they still apply, and your
imported files with their classifications. A restored campaign can still answer "why does the
state say this?" and "what was the narrator actually told?" — after the source file has been
deleted and the canon edited since.
A campaign opens where its head says, never at a Save Point merely because it has one. Exported
after two Undos, it imports still undone, with its retained future intact. Search indexes are
not carried: they are rebuilt from the content, before the import returns. Nothing about your
machine travels — no endpoint, no model, no path — so importing somebody's campaign never
reconfigures your inference, and a campaign imports whether or not you have the model that
wrote it. Older files still import: the flat single-line format, files that predate the head
position, and files that predate everything above. AI Dungeon-compatible scenario format is
still read and written for scenarios and story cards.
- **A verified backup of everything, taken while you play.** Settings → *Back up everything on
this machine* writes a copy of the whole database through SQLite's online backup API — not a
file copy, which of a live database can read one page before a transaction and another after it
and produce a file that opens and is quietly missing rows. It is checked with `PRAGMA
quick_check` before it is kept, and an existing backup is never overwritten
(`backend/app/backup.py`). Restoring one is a documented stop-move-start procedure in
`DEVELOPMENT.md`, deliberately not a button: replacing the file the running application has
open is how you lose both copies.
- **Single user, no accounts.** There is no sign-up, no login, no session and no API key
anywhere in the product. The storyteller API binds to loopback and is unauthenticated by
design, because the only person who can reach it is the person running it. A new install
starts with a short pre-played adventure, so the first screen shows real turns and their
world-state changes rather than an empty page (`backend/app/starter.py`).
- **A refusal you can rely on.** The inference endpoint is checked against an address
allowlist when you save it and again before every request, so a public endpoint is refused
even if the setting is edited in the database directly. TLS verification is never traded
against reachability: a privately issued certificate is verified against your machine's own
trust store, and there is no bypass switch.
## Screenshots
None yet. The inherited screenshots showed upstream's UI — a Scripts tab, Log in and Sign up,
a guest banner, scripting demo scenarios — none of which this fork has since M2, so they were
removed rather than left standing as a picture of a product that no longer exists. The M4
closeout drove the real application in a real browser, so the screens exist and work; taking
presentable screenshots of them is a job for the UI pass in M8.
## Quick start
### Docker (any OS)
```sh
docker compose up --build
```
Open http://localhost:8000. Your data persists in a named volume across restarts.
### Windows
```powershell
cd backend; python -m venv .venv; .\.venv\Scripts\pip.exe install -r requirements.txt; cd ..
cd frontend; npm install; cd ..
.\start.ps1
```
Open http://localhost:5173 (dev servers; API docs at http://localhost:8000/docs).
### macOS / Linux
```sh
./start.sh # creates the venv and installs dependencies on first run
```
Open http://localhost:5173.
## Connect a model
Ollama is the inference backend v1 supports. Open **Settings** in the app and point it at one:
| Where Ollama runs | Endpoint URL | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| The same machine | `http://localhost:11434/v1` | the default, and the simplest thing that works |
| A machine on your own network | `http://<host>:11434/v1` or `https://<host>/v1` | explicitly configured; see below |
Model name, generation parameters, and (optionally) summary and embedding models for the
Memory Bank are configured there too. No config files and no rebuild are needed. There is no
API key field, because there is nothing to authenticate to.
The adapter underneath speaks the OpenAI-compatible protocol, because that is what Ollama
serves. That is an implementation detail, not a promise of support for arbitrary local
servers that happen to speak the same protocol. Public and cloud inference endpoints are
prohibited outright — see `planning/DECISIONS/002-ollama-only-v1.md` and
`planning/DECISIONS/011-local-inference-endpoint-policy.md`.
### What the endpoint policy allows
The address is checked when you save it and again before every request. Only loopback and
private-network addresses are accepted; every public address is refused, by address rather than
by hostname, so a name that resolves outward is refused too. A well-known cloud inference host
is named in the error message only so the refusal says *why*.
Running the model on a second machine you control is supported and expected — that machine
does the inference while the storyteller itself stays bound to loopback on yours. If that
machine serves HTTPS with a certificate from a CA you installed, it works: certificates are
verified against your operating system's trust store as well as the bundled one. Verification
itself is never relaxed, and there is no option to turn it off.
### Playing against a local shim (development only)
`backend/tools/claude_shim.py` serves an OpenAI-compatible endpoint on `127.0.0.1:8787`
backed by a command-line tool, which is useful for testing the turn engine against a stronger
model. Each request spawns one process, which suits the engine: the app assembles the whole
prompt every turn and expects a stateless endpoint.
```sh
cd backend
.venv/bin/python tools/claude_shim.py # listens on 127.0.0.1:8787
```
Set the base URL to `http://127.0.0.1:8787/v1` and pick a model the tool offers. Set the
reasoning budget to `0` or `-1`: a positive budget sends a `reasoning.max_tokens` field that
some models reject. Embeddings are not served — leave the embedding model blank, or point the
Memory Bank at an endpoint that serves one.
The shim has no authentication and spends whatever quota backs it, so run it on loopback and
leave it there.
## How a turn works
```
player input
→ assemble context: [narrator prompt] + [world state + stat guide] + [AI instructions]
+ [plot essentials] + [story summary] + [retrieved memories]
+ [retrieved imported knowledge, framed by class and
bounded by its own budget]
+ [history along this branch, token-budgeted]
+ [author's note] + [player action]
→ snapshot context (Insights)
→ provider adapter → AI (streamed)
→ extract + referee the world-state delta block, strip it from the prose
→ store & render
```
## Architecture
```
frontend/ React + Vite SPA ──HTTP/SSE──► backend/ FastAPI
├─ routers/ scenarios, adventures, knowledge, story cards, chat, settings, debug
├─ models.py SQLAlchemy: Scenario, Adventure, Branch, Action, StoryCard, Settings, Memory, KnowledgeSource, VisualProfile
├─ migrations.py hand-rolled, versioned via PRAGMA user_version (92 and counting)
├─ endpoints.py the inference-endpoint address policy
├─ contextwindow.py what the server will actually accept, and the cap
├─ tlstrust.py one TLS context: the OS trust store unioned with certifi's
├─ tree.py forking, promotion, and where a node is placed
├─ head.py the active head: where the story is read, and what moving it costs
├─ checkpoints Save Points: durable names for positions, in routers/adventures/
├─ attempts.py the takes of one turn, grouped by parent
├─ context/ prompt assembly under a token budget + lineage/history windowing
├─ narrative/ the authoritative state: typed events, validation, snapshots
├─ worldstate/ the inherited RPG stat engine — legacy, no longer authoritative
├─ memorybank.py auto-summarization + embedding retrieval
├─ knowledge/ the imported library: import, chunk, FTS5, embed, rank, inject
├─ bundle.py the export/import formats: v3, and readers for v2 and v1
├─ media/ the future-media seam: scene packets, visual profiles, provider contracts
├─ backup.py a verified whole-database copy, via SQLite's backup API
├─ providers/ OpenAI-compatible adapter, streaming
└─ data.db SQLite (path overridable via AIDND_DB_PATH)
```
In production the backend serves the built SPA from one port (see `Dockerfile`). In
development, Vite proxies `/api` to FastAPI.
## Tests
1,191 backend tests: unit tests plus full HTTP integration through the real turn engine, with
the model provider mocked. They run with no route to the Internet, which is a requirement
rather than a convenience — an offline claim proved on a machine that has been online once
proves nothing. A further handful need a real local model and skip without one; they exist
because a mocked provider can leave the production wiring dead while the suite stays green,
which this project has shipped twice.
```sh
cd backend && pip install -r requirements.txt -r requirements-dev.txt
python -m pytest tests/
```
## Notes on performance
Two of the tests exist because of bugs that were measured rather than guessed at. They are the
most interesting engineering in the repo.
- **Database egress, cut about 189x.** Every adventure load pulled `Action.context_snapshot`,
the entire assembled prompt at about 74 KB per turn, to read two small fields off it. Moving
those fields into their own columns and marking the heavy ones `deferred` took one adventure
load from 38.5 MB to 0.20 MB. The backfill runs server-side with dialect-specific SQL, so the
old data never crosses the wire. `tests/test_egress.py` hooks into SQLAlchemy's cursor events
and fails if a bulk load ever names those columns again.
- **Turn cost, made flat.** Assembling a turn walked the whole story, so cost scaled with story
length: 839 KB of reads at turn 200. `backend/app/context/history.py` now serves tails and
slices from SQL and measures what it fetched. The same turn now costs 129 KB and stops
growing at around turn 50.
- **Branching that costs nothing to read.** A branch stores no turns. It stores where it left
its parent, and borrows everything above that. A 40-turn story forked twenty times loads in
31,652 bytes against 31,433 bytes for the same story flat: a 1.007x ratio, or about 103 bytes
per branch. Reads stay cheap because the lineage is windowed the same way the history is, so
the number of SQL clauses is bounded by the context window rather than by the number of
forks.
## Repo notes
- **Status:** milestones M1-M11 are complete. The v1 release gate passed on
2026-09-14 (see [`planning/reports/M11-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md`](planning/reports/M11-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md),
§T). Passing the gate is not a release: there is no `v1.0.0` tag yet.
- `planning/` is this fork's own package: the product specification, the architecture
decisions, the milestone plan, the acceptance contract, and a review report for every
milestone shipped. Start at [`planning/README.md`](planning/README.md).
- [`planning/archive/`](planning/archive/README.md) holds the Phase 0 research that chose this
base and the completed milestone reports. It is history, not instruction.
- [`DEVELOPMENT.md`](DEVELOPMENT.md) is how to set the project up, point it at a model, and run
the tests. [`PROVENANCE.md`](PROVENANCE.md) records what came from upstream and what changed.
- `backend/.env.example` lists the two environment variables the backend reads. Everything
about the model is a runtime setting on the Settings page instead.
- Upstream's own `plan/` build log and `docs/` project site were removed in the 2026-09-03
documentation pass: they described AI-DnD's hosted, scripted, multi-user product. Both are
still in Git history, and in upstream.

"""Phase 14, SP4: the attempts at one turn.
A retry used to rewrite the AI action in place and append the discarded attempt
to a JSON list on the same row. Seven separate bugs came from that arrangement.
The row's `text` duplicated one entry of a repeating group, a second column
duplicated its length, and every reader that touched the story during a retry
had to be told to ignore the row.
Now an attempt is a node. A retry writes a sibling at the same `(branch_id,
depth)` and marks it live. The previous attempt stays as it was written, at the
same coordinate, with `live = False`. Nothing is duplicated, so nothing can
diverge.
Two invariants hold the arrangement together, and this module is the only place
that maintains either one:
* Exactly one sibling in a group is live. `lineage.Path.clause` selects on it, so
the other attempts are invisible to every read of the story, and none of those
reads has to know that attempts exist.
* The assembled prompt is stored once per turn, on the live sibling. A
`context_snapshot` is about 163 kB of prompt that every attempt at a turn
shares, plus a few hundred bytes that differ, listed in `ATTEMPT_KEYS`. Giving
each sibling its own copy would make a retry a permanent multiplier on the
largest column in the database, which is what the JSON list was invented to
avoid. The prompt therefore moves with the live flag, and a superseded sibling
keeps only its own slices.
Ordering inside a group comes from `id`, not from `created_at`. Two attempts made
in the same second still have to page in the order they were made, and `id`
increases with every insert. SP8 dropped `variant_index`, an explicit ordinal
that carried the same order, once a run of the suite confirmed that the two
agreed in every group.

This is what makes Undo, Redo, a branch switch and a Save Point restore cost
the same at any distance: the destination node carries its own outcome, so
arriving is a row read rather than a replay (`TECHNICAL-DESIGN.md` §10.4).
M5 changed what is restored, not how — the narrative state document takes
the place the RPG world state held, through the same single function.
The two columns follow **different** rules about a NULL, and the difference
is not an oversight.
For the narrative document, a NULL means *this position established
nothing*, and it is restored as the empty document. Leaving the live state
alone instead is what the M5 review caught (Finding 3): arriving at a
migrated pre-M5 node left a later position's entities, facts and threads
standing, so the transcript said depth 2 while the state described depth 6.
The invariant this module exists to hold is that the visible position, the
head and the authoritative state agree, and "keep whatever was there" cannot
hold it. An empty document at an old position is honest — the narrative
state system knew nothing then, because it did not exist — where retained
state from elsewhere is a claim about a story that had not been told yet.
Migration backfills those rows explicitly, so this fallback is the belt to
that pair of braces: it also covers a node arriving from an older export,
which the migration never sees.
For the legacy RPG world state a NULL still means leave it alone. Those rows

someone other than its owner.
What is left is the local path that upstream already had. Every request
resolves to one automatically created user row.

settings stay. They are an **internal ownership detail**, not an account

"""M9: a consistent copy of the whole database, taken while the app is running.
This is **not** the campaign bundle, and the two are not alternatives. They are
different recovery tools and M9 keeps them apart deliberately:
campaign bundle one campaign, logical, portable between installations,
importable into a clean data directory on another
machine, readable by a human and by a later build
database backup every campaign, every setting, physical, this machine,
restored by putting the file back
The bundle is the primary cross-install recovery path and is what the acceptance
tests measure. This exists for the other question: the reader has one database
holding everything they have ever played, and wants a copy of it before they
upgrade, move a disk, or try something they might regret.
## Why not `cp data.db backup.db`
Because a copy taken with the application running is a copy of a moving target.
SQLite writes a database in pages, and a plain file copy can read page 5 before
a transaction and page 900 after it — the result is a file that opens, reports a
schema, and is silently missing or duplicating rows. In WAL mode it is worse: the
committed data may be in a `-wal` file the copy never touched. Nothing warns
anyone. The corruption is found later, by which time the original may be gone.
So this uses SQLite's own **online backup API** (`sqlite3.Connection.backup`),
which is the supported mechanism for exactly this: it copies page by page while
holding the right locks, restarts if a write moves the source underneath it, and
produces a file that is a transactionally consistent snapshot of some committed
point. The application keeps running throughout; no session is closed and no
turn is blocked.
## What the procedure guarantees
1. The source database is opened **read-only** and is never written to. A backup
that could damage what it is backing up would be worse than no backup.
2. The copy is written to a temporary file beside the destination and renamed
into place only after it has been verified, so an interrupted or failed run
never leaves a half-written file wearing a backup's name. `os.replace` is
atomic on the same filesystem, which is why the temporary sits in the
destination's own directory rather than in `/tmp`.
3. `PRAGMA quick_check` runs against the finished copy, opened as its own
database, before it is renamed. A backup nobody verified is a belief.
4. An existing file is never overwritten. Each run writes a new name stamped
with the time, so yesterday's backup survives today's mistake — which is most
of what a backup is for.
5. Failure is reported and leaves nothing behind but the log line.
## What it does not do
There is no restore endpoint. Restoring a whole database means replacing the
file the running application has open, and doing that from inside that
application is a way to lose both copies. The procedure is in `DEVELOPMENT.md`:
stop the app, move the file into place, start it. Campaign-level recovery — the
common case, and the one that crosses machines — is the bundle.
No path comes from a caller. The destination directory is derived from the
database the application is already using and the filename is generated here, so
there is no request that can direct a write anywhere else (H08).

"""Storing a JSON column compressed.
`actions.context_snapshot` holds the entire assembled prompt for a turn. It is

Replaying the block was meant to teach the model the output format by
example. What it actually did was put a second, older account of the world

governed. A fact the reader had explicitly withdrawn through a manual
correction was dropped from the state section and then handed straight back
in the history section, as an accepted event, phrased exactly as the model
had first asserted it. C04 requires a correction to reach the narrator's
context; a correction the next prompt contradicts has not reached it.
Two other things were wrong with it. The blocks are implementation
metadata, not story, and every other consumer of stored text — memory,
summaries, export, the transcript — treats an action's text as prose. And a
turn's accepted events are a record of what was true *then*, which is
precisely what a later correction, retcon or invalidation revises.

worked example in the system block and `EMIT_REMINDER` repeats the demand

## Why this is not just "whatever fits"
Taking whatever fits is what the builder did, and it is correct. It is also
the reason a long campaign costs a full prompt re-read every turn.
Inference servers cache the prompt they have already processed, keyed on the
**prefix**. While the story only grows at the end, each turn re-uses that
cache and pays for its own new tokens alone. As soon as the budget is full,
"whatever fits" drops the *oldest* action every turn — a change near the
front of the prompt — and everything after it has to be processed again.
So the floor is snapped forward to a multiple of `block` and then held. It
moves in steps: several cheap turns that re-use the cache, then one turn that
pays to re-read, rather than every turn paying. The cost is history depth —
right after a step the window holds up to `block` actions fewer than the
budget would allow, which is what `TRIM_FRACTION` bounds.
Measured against the reference deployment, on prompts this builder produced,
at an 8,192 budget where `block` is 3:
floor held, story grew by one action 14-20 s
floor stepped, prompt re-read 333-338 s
mean over two whole cycles 124.0 s
floor disabled, every turn re-read 362.4 s (361, 361, 365, 361)
2.9x, and the shape is the point rather than the ratio: the saving grows with
`block`, which grows with the budget, so the configuration that hurt most
before benefits most now.
Returns None when nothing needs trimming, which covers two cases that must
both stay as they were: a story short enough to fit whole (the window is a
growing prefix already, and snapping would drop its opening for no reason),
and an action so large that not even the newest one fits, which the caller
truncates.

# * no visibility — no narrator-only distinction at all;
# * no source, no hash, no lifecycle, nothing to disable it with;
# * no browser surface, since M8 removed the editor — so a reader could
# neither see it nor switch it off;

"""Phase 14: tracks how far along a story the derived work has reached.
Two things are built from the story and stored beside it: the memories and the
story summary. Both need to record where they stopped.
That mark used to be a count, such as "the first 12 story actions are covered".
A count is a position in a list, and this list changes. If you delete an action
in front of the mark, every later action moves down one slot, so the mark now
covers an action it never read. The rules in `memorybank` for sliding cursors,
rewinding them, and converting between positions and `Action.index` all existed
to correct for that, and each rule was a chance to introduce a silent error.
A cursor here is an anchor instead. It stores `(branch_id, depth)`, naming the
node up to and including which the work is done. Deleting an action does not
move it, because a depth is a coordinate along a path rather than a position in
a list. The question "what is not covered yet" becomes
`history.count_after(anchor)`, which asks about the story rather than about a
list index, and it stays correct no matter what is deleted in front of it.
The branch half of the anchor is what makes it survive forking. A depth alone is
ambiguous once two branches both hold a node at depth 41. The anchor names the
branch, and `Path.depth_on` reads it back as a depth on whichever story is being
played. That read caps the depth at the fork, or reports nothing covered if the
anchor sits on a branch this path does not contain. Until forking ships there is
one branch, so this always returns the stored depth. That is the point: the
coordinate system is correct before anything depends on it.
`NO_DEPTH`, which is -1, means nothing is covered. A new adventure therefore
needs no special case, because every node is deeper than -1.

"""Reads part of a story without loading all of it.
`story_actions()` used to walk `adventure.actions`, which loads every row of the
adventure. Every caller then discarded nearly all of those rows. The context
builder joins the story and immediately trims it to the token budget. The
in-scene NPC check reads the last 6 actions. Memory retrieval reads the last 4.
The post-turn cursor clamp needs only a count. A turn on a 200-action adventure
read about 840 KB in order to use about 70 KB, and the cost grew with every
turn.
This module serves those shapes from SQL directly, as a tail, a slice, or a
count. A read is therefore bounded by the context budget rather than by the
length of the story.
Three rules hold the module together:
- There is one definition of a story action. That definition decides both what
a reader sees and what the summarizer receives, so the SQL and the Python must
agree exactly. `_STORY_TEXT` and `is_story_text()` express the same rule
twice. Keep them in step.
- No caller loads the same rows twice. If `adventure.actions` is already in
memory, every helper here slices that collection instead of running a query.
The scripting pipeline hands the whole history to user scripts, as AI Dungeon
does, so a scripted adventure costs no more than it did before.
- Every read applies the branch clause, as of Phase 14. `adventure.actions`
holds the actions of every branch rather than the story being played, so the
in-memory path filters the collection down to the path before slicing it, in
the same way the SQL does. Skipping that filter would build a prompt from two
different stories without reporting an error, which is why `lineage.Path`
owns both forms of the rule.
Reads order by `depth` rather than `index`. Since SP4, two different rows can
hold the same value for both columns, because the attempts at one turn share
them. Only `depth` together with the `live` test in the branch clause
identifies the row the story uses.
SP3 added the reads that count from a node rather than from the start:
`count_after`, `after`, and `newest`. The memory bank used to ask for positions
12 through 18 of the story, and the answer to that question changes when an
action in front of those positions is deleted. It now asks for the six actions
after depth 41, which is the question that forking requires in any case.

"""Phase 14: decides which nodes make up one story.
`tree.py` decides where a node is written. This module decides which nodes a
read can see, and it is the only place that makes that decision.
A branch owns the nodes played on it and inherits everything before its fork
point from its ancestors. "The story on branch C" is therefore not a value you
can filter a column on. It is an OR of ranges::
(branch_id = C) -- C's own nodes, through to the tip
OR (branch_id = B AND depth <= 5)
OR (branch_id = A AND depth <= 3)
The `branches.lineage` column records exactly that list, newest first. The fork
computes it once, so no read walks parent pointers to rebuild it.
The shape of the list gives two properties that the windowed reads depend on:
- The ranges do not overlap, and they descend. A branch's own nodes always sit
deeper than its fork point, and each lineage entry is capped at the fork depth
of the branch below it. Ordering the whole clause by `depth` descending
therefore reads entry 0's nodes, then entry 1's, then entry 2's. A tail read
can use the newest few entries and stop.
- The number of clauses depends on the size of the context window, not on how
many times the story has forked. A story with 200 forks whose newest branch
runs 40 turns reads with a single clause, because the window is covered before
the second entry is reached. `prefix_covering` implements this, and it is why
`history.window_covering` can keep its current shape.
Everything in this module reads. Nothing here creates a branch or writes a row.
An adventure with no branch has no story, and the write side repairs that. See
`tree.place_action` and the flush listener in `models.py`.

"""M11: what the inference server will *actually* accept, as opposed to what we budgeted.
M8 found the failure this module exists to prevent. The application budgets a
prompt up to `Settings.context_token_budget` — 16,384 by default — while Ollama
enforces a window of its own, and on a machine with no VRAM that window defaults
to **4,096**. The request still returns HTTP 200. Nothing warns anybody. What
actually happens is worse than an error: `llama.cpp` drops the **oldest** tokens,
and the oldest tokens in this application are the system block — the narrator
rules and the campaign canon. The symptom is a narrator that forgets canon deep
into a long session, with nothing on screen explaining why, and every acceptance
test that reads a returned 200 as success passing throughout.
The invariant M11 requires:
The application must not silently budget more narrator input
than the configured Ollama runtime will actually accept.
Note the word *silently*. There are two honest outcomes and this module produces
both: either the window is **verified**, in which case the budget is capped to it
so the prompt physically cannot overflow; or it is **unverified**, in which case
the assembly says so, in the context report, on the connection test, and in the
turn's stored provenance. What must not happen is the third thing — assembling
16,384 tokens against a 4,096-token server and calling the result a turn.
## Why this is not solved by sending `num_ctx`
It was tried, and it is documented in `DEVELOPMENT.md`. Ollama's
OpenAI-compatible endpoint accepts `num_ctx` — nested in `options` or at the top
level — returns 200, and ignores it. Worse, it reloads the model at its own
default, so priming the server through the native API first does not help
either: the next request resets the window. The window is a property of how the
model is loaded, not of the request, so the only things that change it are a
model with `num_ctx` baked in (`/api/create`) or `OLLAMA_CONTEXT_LENGTH` on the
server. Both are operator actions. This module's job is not to change the
window; it is to find out what it is and refuse to lie about it.
## How the window is found
Ollama's native API sits beside the OpenAI-compatible one on the same host, so
this asks the server the application is already talking to, and nothing else. No
new destination, the same endpoint policy, the same TLS trust store.
/api/ps a loaded model reports `context_length`: the window the runtime
is enforcing *right now*. This is the truth when it is available.
/api/show an unloaded model may carry `num_ctx` in its baked parameters,
which is the window it will load with; `model_info` carries the
architecture's own ceiling, which caps everything else.
`/api/ps` is asked first because a model that is loaded has already settled the
question. `/api/show` answers it for a model that is not loaded yet, which is the
ordinary case at the start of a session.
## What it deliberately does not do
It does not hard-code 4,096, which would cripple a correctly configured
deployment; it does not raise the budget, which is the operator's decision; it
does not fall back to a cloud probe, a bundled table of model sizes, or a guess
from the model's name. An unknown window is reported as unknown.
## The server that cannot be asked
Discovery above is Ollama's native API. Nothing restricts `endpoint_url` to
Ollama — any allowed address serving an OpenAI-compatible `/v1` is accepted —
and on vLLM, llama.cpp's own server, or anything else, `/api/ps` and `/api/show`
are simply not there. Discovery then fails exactly as designed and the window is
reported unknown, which is honest but leaves the invariant at the top of this
file unenforced: the budget stands at whatever is configured, and if that server
enforces a smaller window it drops the oldest tokens again.
`context_window_override` is the operator's answer to that. It is a number the
operator states because they know how the server was launched, and it is used
**only when the server could not be asked**:
verified window -> always wins; a declaration cannot raise it
no verified window -> the declaration becomes the ceiling, source DECLARED
neither -> unknown, exactly as before
This does not weaken what `verified` claims. `verified` still means the server
itself answered, so `window_verified` in a turn's provenance keeps the meaning
the M11 report gives it, and a declared window is identifiable as a declaration
wherever it appears. What the declaration buys is enforcement: the prompt is
capped, so the failure mode is a shorter prompt rather than a silently truncated
one.

"""M6: recording whether background derived work succeeded, and why not.
M2 shipped with the entire memory bank dead and the full test suite green. The

because every memory test stubbed the provider factories out

Two rules follow, and they pull in opposite directions:
* **Derived work must fail softly.** A memory that could not be written, a
summary that could not be generated, an embedding the endpoint refused —
none of these may roll back the accepted narration, the accepted state
events, the authoritative document, the head, or the transcript. The story
turn already happened; the derived work is a commentary on it.

So each attempt writes its outcome to one row per (campaign, kind), and that row

"""Which inference endpoints this product is willing to talk to.
The Adventure Storyteller sends the player's prose, the assembled context, the
retrieved memories, and the embedding inputs to whatever address the model
endpoint names. That makes the endpoint the single most consequential setting
in the application: point it somewhere else and the whole campaign goes there.
The v1 rule (`planning/DECISIONS/002-ollama-only-v1.md`, ADR 004) is that
inference runs on user-controlled local infrastructure. Two deployments are
supported and no third is:
* **same-host** — Ollama on loopback, the default;
* **explicitly configured trusted LAN** — Ollama on another machine the user
controls, named by them, reached over HTTP or over HTTPS with a certificate
their machine trusts.
Everything on the public Internet is refused. Not discouraged in the UI, not
absent from a dropdown — refused, here, on the way out, so that a hand-edited
database row or a hostname that starts resolving somewhere new cannot quietly
turn a local install into an exfiltration path.
## How the line is drawn
By **address**, not by name, and against an explicit allowlist of networks:
loopback, the three RFC1918 ranges, link-local, IPv6 unique-local, and
carrier-grade NAT — the last of which is what a mesh VPN such as Tailscale
hands out and is as user-controlled as a LAN.
Every address the host resolves to must be in one of them. One address outside
is enough to refuse the endpoint, so a name resolving to both a private and a
public address does not squeak through.
The networks are spelled out rather than inferred from `ipaddress`'s own
classifications, which do not mean what this rule needs: `is_private` is true
of the documentation ranges and of `0.0.0.0/8`, and `is_reserved` is true of
IPv6 loopback — so a rule written around it refuses `http://[::1]:11434/v1`,
which is an ordinary same-host Ollama. Naming the networks keeps the policy
readable and makes anything unnamed refused by default.
Checking addresses rather than hostnames is what makes the rule hard to talk
around. A cloud provider cannot be reached by spelling its name differently,
and `localhost.` or a DNS entry pointing at a public host is judged on where it
actually goes.
## What this is not
It is not a general network-policy framework, and there is nothing to configure.
There is one predicate, and it is applied in two places: when the endpoint is
saved, so the user gets a clear error immediately, and again before every
outbound request, because a name that resolved to `192.168.1.50` this morning
can resolve to something else this afternoon.
TLS is a separate matter and is never traded against this one. See
`tlstrust.py`: certificates are verified in full, and no endpoint — however
private its address — may skip that.

"""M3: where the story is being read, and what moving that point costs.
Undo used to delete. It removed the trailing nodes, let `tree.refresh_head`
recompute the tip from what survived, and the story was wherever the rows ended.
That made the head a derived value and made Redo impossible, because the turns it
would have moved forward into were gone.
The head is now a stored position that can sit behind the retained tip. Nothing
is deleted, so three things that used to be the same question are now three
different ones:
* **the active head** — `adventure.head_branch_id` and `adventure.head_depth`,
the end of the story being told. Every read of the story stops here, because
`lineage.Path` caps every entry at it.
* **the retained tip** — the deepest live node still on the lineage. Redo walks
toward it. It is read through `Path.uncapped()`, and only this module and the
divergence check may look at it.
* **the opening** — the shallowest node on the story, which is the floor Undo
may not pass.
Everything that moves the head or asks a question about it lives here, so the
turn engine, Retry, Add-take, Undo, Redo and Edit share one set of rules rather
than four similar ones. The Phase 0B spike put the fork check in the write path
and left Retry and Add-take on the old one, which is exactly the divergence this
module exists to prevent.
The state that belongs to a position is not recomputed. Every node carries the
world state it left behind (`attempts.snapshot_outcome`), so moving the head is a
row lookup plus `attempts.restore_state`, at any distance, in either direction.

This is the question an in-place edit has to ask. Editing rewrites one row
and re-evaluates nothing, which is what makes it a correction rather than a
new continuation. That is harmless while everything descending from the row
is on screen: the reader can see what their correction has to stay
consistent with. It stops being harmless the moment a continuation descends
from the row and is *not* on screen, because the edit then silently changes
the words an invisible stretch of story was written from. That is the one
way M3's retained history can be made to contradict itself.
Refusing is deliberately the whole of the fix. Making such an edit fork, so
the original text and its future stay whole, is
`STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS.md` §14-15 — and §15 requires re-evaluating the
state the edited prose implies, which is M5's extraction pass. Neither is
started here.
The question is asked as one shape rather than two, because the two ways a
descendant becomes invisible turn out to be the same fact. An undone future
sits past the head on this very lineage; a displaced line sits past a fork
on a branch the story left. In both cases there is a live node, deeper than
this one, that descends from it and is not on the path being read — and the
departed branch is usually an *ancestor* of the branch now being read, which
is why "branches other than the active one" is the wrong set to look at.
Only the deepest live node on each descending branch is examined. Whether a
node is on the read path is monotone in depth: a branch is on the path with
a cap, and a node is visible when its depth is at or under that cap. So if
the deepest one is visible, every shallower one is too, and if it is not,
the answer is already yes.
A node that is not live has no descendants of its own — a take the story
moved past keeps a continuation only by being forked, and that fork is a
branch this loop asks about anyway — so editing one is always safe.

The head is two values, and the two halves move for different reasons. A
Save Point almost always names a position on the story being read — its own
line, or the shared prefix that line inherits — and then only the depth
moves. Leaving the branch alone is what makes the restored position keep the
continuation it has: after a divergence, restoring to the shared prefix must
put the reader back on the *new* line, where Redo walks into the turns they
are still writing, not into the future they left. Reaching for the Save
Point's own branch there would quietly hand back the abandoned story.
The other case is real and has to work. A Save Point survives divergence
(`STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS.md` §19), so one can name a position on a line the
story has since left, and no amount of depth movement reaches a branch this
path does not contain. The line then moves as well — one assignment, the
same one `switch_branch` makes — and the depth still moves through
`move_to`. Nothing is created: a restore never forks, whichever case it

"""M7: the imported knowledge library.
A campaign can import local `.txt` and `.md` files as **Canon**, **Reference**
or **Inspiration**, have the relevant passages retrieved locally, and see them
in the narrator's prompt with their provenance and the authority their class
carries.
This is a first-class subsystem, not an extension of the inherited Story Cards.
Phase 0B measured Story Cards against what the product asks for and found no
classification, no provenance, no content identity, no chunking, no index and
no lifecycle; `IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md` §73 settles the question. Nothing
here reads or writes a Story Card.
Read the modules in this order:
classes the three classes, their weights, and the prompt framing
chunking a source becomes deterministic, heading-aware passages
fts the SQLite FTS5 lexical index, and searching it
importer validate, hash, store, chunk and index — in one transaction
embeddings local Ollama vectors for the semantic half
retrieval query construction, hybrid merge, rerank
inject the budgeted cut and the rendered prompt sections
The package's `__init__` deliberately imports nothing. `context/builder.py`
imports `knowledge.inject`, and `knowledge.chunking` imports `context`; an
`__init__` that pulled in the whole package would close that into a cycle.
Import the submodule you need.
## What is authoritative and what is rebuildable
KnowledgeSource.content the reader's file. Not derivable. Exported.
KnowledgeSource.classification the reader's judgement. Not derivable.
Exported. Everything else about a source is
metadata describing one of these two.
KnowledgeChunk derived from the content by a deterministic
knowledge_fts chunker; rebuildable, and rebuilt on import
KnowledgeEmbedding of a bundle. Not exported.
## Three separations this subsystem exists to hold
story authority != retrieval relevance != software privilege
A source can be the most relevant thing in the campaign and authoritative Canon
about its fiction while being completely untrusted as input to this program.
`classes.py` writes that distinction into the prompt; `importer.py` and the
router make sure no imported byte is ever treated as a path, a command or an

"""M7: turning an imported file into retrievable passages, deterministically.
Chunking is derived data, and the whole subsystem leans on that being true: an
export carries the source text alone, an import rebuilds the passages, and
"reindex" is "throw the chunks away and run this again". None of that is safe
unless the same bytes always produce the same passages, in the same order, with
the same identities. So this module is pure, takes no clock and no randomness,
and every decision it makes is a function of the text.
## What it produces
A passage carries the Markdown heading trail above it. That is not decoration:
"Old Abbey > The Crypt" is most of what tells a narrator — and a lexical index —
what a paragraph is about, and a heading is the one piece of structure a plain
paragraph split throws away.
## Sizing
`IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md` §16 sets the initial target at roughly 300-800
tokens, and the tokenizer here is the one the context builder budgets with, so
the numbers below mean the same thing at both ends. Paragraphs under one heading
are packed together until adding the next would cross `TARGET_MAX`; a paragraph
that alone exceeds `TARGET_MAX` is split on sentence boundaries. Two failure
modes are guarded explicitly, because `IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md` §15 names
both of them as what chunking has to avoid:
* **No fragments.** A heading with one short line under it would otherwise
become a chunk of nine tokens, costing an index row and a rerank slot to carry
almost nothing — and a reference document is mostly such headings. So a
heading boundary only *closes* a passage once the passage has reached
`MIN_TOKENS`. Below that the packing runs straight through the boundary and
writes every heading it crosses — including the one the passage opened under —
into the text as it goes, so a run of short sections becomes one passage that
still says which section each part came from. The passage's own `heading_path`
becomes the deepest trail all its parts share, which for unrelated siblings is
nothing; the headings themselves are never lost, only moved inside.
* **No giants.** A 4,000-token section does not become one chunk merely because
its author wrote no second heading. `TARGET_MAX` is a ceiling on the packing
loop and `_split_long` is the escape hatch beneath it.
## Overlap
There is none, and that is a decision rather than an omission. §15 permits
"limited overlap"; §16 calls it optional. Overlap buys continuity across a
boundary and costs the same text twice in a bounded budget — and this build has
a redundancy suppressor sitting downstream whose job is to notice two passages
saying the same thing, which is exactly what overlap manufactures. The heading
path gives each passage its context without duplicating any of it. If retrieval
quality ever argues for overlap, `CHUNKING_VERSION` is how the change is rolled
out: bump it, and every source is reprocessed and re-embedded on reindex.

# path scoring every embedded chunk, *something* was admitted on every turn
# whatever the reader was doing (review finding M7-F1).
#
# So admission now runs first, on signals that mean something on their own:
#
# candidate generation
# -> admission absolute, per path, candidate-set-independent
# -> ranking normalized among the survivors only
# -> class weighting
# -> budget
#
# A candidate needs real evidence from at least one path. Authority is applied
# after that, and never rescues a passage that had none: `IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-
# DESIGN.md` §30 asks for `Canon > Reference > Inspiration` *and* "do not
# include irrelevant Canon merely because it is authoritative", and those two
# sentences are only compatible if relevance is decided before the class is
# consulted.
#: Raw cosine at or above which the semantic path has found something.
#:
#: Absolute, because a normalized score cannot express "no match" — normalizing
#: is precisely what makes the best of a bad set look perfect. This is the
#: similarity the model returned, compared against nothing else.
#:
#: **Measured through the production path, not guessed.** The passages are
#: embedded as `fts.index_line(heading, text)` and the query is the assembled
#: `retrieval.query_terms` text, because both differ from the bare strings and
#: both move the numbers. 113 (query, passage) pairs against
#: `nomic-embed-text`:
#:
#: targeted n= 13 min 0.5526 p10 0.6090 median 0.7231 max 0.8474
#: the one source a scene is actually about
#: off-topic n=100 min 0.3577 median 0.4591 p95 0.5339 max 0.5578
#: 20 scenes with no connection to the campaign at all
#: (harbour, surgery, compiler, fugue, sourdough, kiln …)
#:
#: The two populations very nearly touch: 0.5578 against 0.5526. 0.58 sits in
#: the gap with about 0.022 of margin on each side — above every one of the 100
#: off-topic pairs, and below the weakest targeted match this build must keep
#: (0.6090, "could Edrin be resurrected" against the necromancy passage, which
#: C05 depends on).
#:
#: The single targeted pair below the floor is instructive rather than a loss:
#: "the broken circle cut into the keystone above the crypt stair" scores 0.5526
#: against the Canon that describes exactly that, because the wording is so
#: close that little is left for the embedding to add — and it matches four
#: lexical terms, so the lexical path admits it. That is the hybrid doing its
#: job, and it is why neither path needs to be right on its own.
#:
#: **This value is a property of the embedding model, not of the product.** A
#: different model has a different scale, exactly as
#: `memorybank.REDUNDANT_SIMILARITY` records for its own threshold. If a model
#: scored everything below this, semantic retrieval would return nothing and the
#: library would degrade to lexical-only — a supported production path, so the
#: failure is safe rather than silent. `tests/test_knowledge_real_model.py`
#: re-measures both populations and fails if the separation collapses.
SEMANTIC_FLOOR = 0.58
#: Which embedding models this build has actually calibrated, and to what.
#:
#: **A cosine threshold is a property of the model that produced the vectors.**
#: `SEMANTIC_FLOOR` was measured against `nomic-embed-text` and means nothing
#: for a model with a different similarity scale. The safe direction is only
#: half-safe on its own: a model that scores everything *lower* degrades to
#: lexical-only, which is a supported production path — but a model that scores
#: unrelated material *higher* would sail past 0.58 and recreate M7-F1 exactly,
#: on a build whose tests all pass.
#:
#: So an uncalibrated model does not inherit the number. It gets no semantic
#: admission at all, and the reason is reported. Retrieval stays lexical, which
#: is a first-class path rather than a fallback, so story play is unaffected.
#:
#: Adding a model here is a measurement, not a guess: run
#: `tests/test_knowledge_real_model.py` against it and check that the targeted
#: and off-topic populations separate, exactly as §CC.2 of
#: `planning/reports/M7-IMPLEMENTATION-REPORT.md` records for this entry.
#:
#: Keyed by the model's base name — an Ollama tag (`:latest`, `:v1.5`) selects a
#: build of the same model and does not change its similarity scale.

#: How many distinct meaningful query terms a passage must match before the

#:

#: "Aldric" — the protagonist's name, which is in the story tail of essentially
#: every query. Two independent terms is a much harder accident.
LEXICAL_MIN_TERMS = 2
#: ...with one exception, or the rule would break single-term retrieval. A
#: passage matching exactly one term is still admitted when that term is
#: **distinctive**, which takes two things.
#:
#: First, it must not be the name of a standing entity — the protagonist, the
#: cast, the places the story has established. Those are in the retrieval query
#: on *every* turn by construction, because the query is built partly from the
#: authoritative state, and a term that is always present cannot be evidence
#: about the present scene. This is deliberately **not** "ignore proper nouns":
#: `IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md` §24 and §33 make names among the most valuable
#: lexical signals there are, and a standing entity still counts the moment a
#: second term matches alongside it.
#:
#: Second, it must account for a real share of what was asked. One word out of a
#: nine-word scene is 11% of the query and is not evidence however distinctive
#: the word is; one word out of three is a third of everything the reader gave
#: us. The share test is what makes the rule hold on a young campaign whose
#: authoritative state is still empty — exactly the case the first test cannot
#: see, and exactly where the review found `hidden-key.md` admitted into a
#: harbour scene on the single word "Aldric".
#:
#: Both conditions are needed. The share test alone would admit a lone "Aldric"
#: from a three-word query; the entity test alone admitted it from a nine-word
#: one, which is what was measured before this correction.

# 2. Imported text is *stale by construction*. It was written before the story
# ran. Where it disagrees with the current authoritative state, the state
# is right — which is C05's second half and §44's north gate.

"""M7: local vectors for imported passages, and what happens when there are none.
The semantic half of retrieval. It uses the **existing** provider — the same
`OpenAICompatibleProvider` the memory bank builds through
`memorybank.embedding_provider` — and that is not a convenience. That path is
where the endpoint allowlist is re-checked before every request, where the
OS/private-CA trust store is unioned into verification, and where timeouts and
error shapes are decided (ADR 011, `endpoints.py`, `tlstrust.py`). A second HTTP
client here would be a second policy, and the one thing a local-only product
cannot afford is two answers to "where may this connect".
## Failure is normal and must be visible
Ollama is not running; the embedding model is not pulled; the LAN host is
asleep. None of these may cost the reader their import. So:
the source stays — content and classification are
not derived from anything
lexical retrieval keeps working — FTS5 is local SQLite and never
touched the network
the failure is recorded on the source — `embed_state`, `embed_detail`
and on the campaign — `derived_status`, kind "knowledge"
a retry fixes it — the next turn, or Reindex
The campaign-level record reuses M6's `derived.py` rather than inventing a
second status system. The per-source
columns exist alongside it because "which file failed" is not a question a
per-campaign row can answer, and it is the question a reader actually has.
`derived.KNOWLEDGE` is its own kind rather than folded into `derived.EMBEDDING`.
The memory bank's embeddings and the knowledge library's embeddings fail
independently and are fixed by different actions, and M6's finding M6-F5 —
reporting `ok` for work that never ran — is the same mistake as reporting one
health for two subsystems.

"""M7: the SQLite FTS5 lexical index over imported passages.
Lexical retrieval is a **supported production path**, not a fallback for when
the embeddings are broken. It is the half that finds `Old Abbey`,
`broken-circle` and `Westhaven` — proper nouns and invented terms, which is most
of what a setting bible is made of and precisely what an embedding trained on
ordinary English is worst at. `IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md` §24 chooses FTS5
for being transparent, fast and deterministic, and §23 requires it to keep
working when the semantic side does not.
## The table
CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE knowledge_fts USING fts5(text, tokenize='porter unicode61')
One column, and `rowid` is the chunk's primary key. Everything else — which
campaign, which source, whether that source is enabled — is on
`knowledge_chunks` and `knowledge_sources`, and the search below joins to them.
That is deliberate: the scope rules are then enforced by the same rows the rest
of the application reads, rather than by a copy inside the index that could
drift out of step with them.
`text` is the heading trail and the body together. A heading is a strong signal
and often the only place a term appears — "Old Abbey" is a heading in the
standard fixture, not a sentence in it — so indexing the body alone would miss
the exact query the acceptance test asks.
A virtual table is not something `Base.metadata.create_all` can build, so this
module owns its DDL and `migrations.bootstrap` calls `ensure`.
## Why not `content=` external-content mode
External content would save storing the passage text twice. It also makes every
delete a three-way ceremony (`INSERT INTO t(t, rowid, text) VALUES('delete',...)`)
that must be handed the *old* text, and a mismatch corrupts the index silently
rather than raising. Sources here are capped at a megabyte and a campaign holds
a handful, so the duplicate text is worth an index whose delete is `DELETE`.

finds index rows *through* the chunks, and there are none. That made Reindex,
which is the documented repair, unable to repair this. `REPLACE` closes it
from both ends: a leaked row is overwritten the moment the id comes round

"""M7: accepting a local file into a campaign's knowledge library.
One function does the whole job — validate, hash, store, chunk, index — and it
does it inside one transaction, because the alternative is the state
`IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md` §57 forbids: a source presented as usable while
only half its passages exist.
## The transactional boundary
validate -> no row is written at all; the caller gets a 4xx and the
reader's file is untouched
build -> source row, every chunk row, every FTS row, and
index_state='ready' all commit together, or none of them do
`index_state` is the belt to that braces. Retrieval reads only sources marked
`ready`, so even a hypothetical partial commit could not be retrieved from — it
would be a stored source that never answers a query, which is inert rather than
wrong. A failure after validation leaves `failed` with the reason on the row.
Embeddings are deliberately *outside* that boundary. They need a network call to
Ollama, and a knowledge library that cannot be imported while the inference host
is down would be a worse product than one whose semantic index lags. So the
import commits lexically complete and the vectors are filled in afterwards, by
`embeddings.py`, at import time and again after any later turn.
## Path safety
There is none to get wrong, and that is the design. The only import surface is
an HTTP upload: the router takes `UploadFile`, and this module takes bytes and a
filename *string*. No caller anywhere accepts a server-side pathname, so there
is no path to canonicalize, no root to compare against, and no symlink to
resolve. `H08` is satisfied by the absence of the mechanism rather than by a
check that could later be bypassed — and `safe_filename` below still strips
every separator and traversal segment, because the name is displayed and stored
and a `../../etc/passwd` in a title is at best confusing.

"""M7: fitting retrieved knowledge into the prompt, and saying what it cost.
`retrieval.py` decides which passages are worth offering. This module decides
how many of them the prompt can actually afford, renders them with the framing
their class carries, and produces the provenance record the Insights panel and
the acceptance tests read.
It is pure. It takes a `retrieval.Result`, a budget and a token counter, and
returns text — no database, no session, no clock. That is what lets
`context/builder.py` import it without the import cycle a fuller dependency
would create, and it is why the whole budget arithmetic is testable without a
campaign.
## The pressure rules
`CONTEXT-AND-MEMORY.md` §29-31 and §37-40 of the design ask for four different
behaviours under pressure, and they are four different mechanisms here:
always-included Canon protected. Counted with the system block, before
any history is chosen. If it cannot fit alongside
the other protected sections and the reply reserve,
the turn fails with `ContextOverflow` rather than
sending a prompt known to overflow.
retrieved Canon bounded, and first in line for the retrieved budget.
Reference bounded, and capped at a share of it, so Reference
can never crowd out Canon.
Inspiration capped smallest, filled last, dropped first.
Every one of those is spent out of `KNOWLEDGE_SHARE` of what is left after the
protected context and the reply reserve are subtracted, so none of it can reach
the current state, the reader's input, the narrator rules or the output reserve.
Whatever is not spent returns to the story history rather than being lost.
## Rendering
Each passage arrives labelled with the file it came from, its heading trail and
its index, because that label is the provenance the reader inspects and it is
also what lets a narrator say where something came from. Hidden passages carry
`[narrator only]` on that same line — in the passage, not only in a preamble at
the top of the section, because a passage is read where it sits.

"""M7: choosing which imported passages a narrator turn should be shown.
query terms ──┬──▶ FTS5 lexical candidates ─┐
│ ├─▶ merge ─▶ dedupe ─▶
└──▶ semantic candidates ─┘
(when an embedding model is configured)
─▶ authority × relevance rerank ─▶ ranked candidates ─▶ inject.py
The cut against the token budget is **not** here. It is in `inject.py`, which is
the only module that knows what the context builder has left. This module's job
ends at a ranked, deduplicated, campaign-scoped list with every score on it, so
that "why did that passage win?" is answerable from the record rather than
reconstructed.
## The query is not the user's sentence
`IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md` §27 and `CONTEXT-AND-MEMORY.md` §40 both say so,
for the same reason: "I open the door" retrieves nothing, and the material that would help is
about the room the door is in. So the query is assembled from what the
application already knows is active — the recent story, the current scene and
location, the entities present, the open threads.
Two constraints on where those terms may come from, and they are the same
constraint twice:
* The story terms come from `context.history.tail`, which reads through the
**head-capped lineage clause**. An Undo followed by a divergence leaves the
abandoned turns in the database, and they must not reach this query — a
retrieval influenced by a story the reader walked away from is the M6 leak
wearing different clothes.
* The state terms come from `adventure.narrative_state`, which head movement
repoints at the position being read. Same property, different table.
Neither reads the uncapped `actions` table, and nothing here queries by "the
newest rows".
## Admission, then ranking
These are two stages and the order is the point.
candidate generation
-> ADMISSION absolute signals, independent of the candidate set
-> RANKING normalized among the survivors only
-> class weighting
-> budget
**Admission** asks whether a passage matched *at all*, using signals that mean
something on their own: the raw cosine the model returned, and how many distinct
meaningful query terms the passage actually contains. Neither is computed by
comparison with the other candidates, so a set in which everything is bad
produces nothing.
M7's first implementation had no such stage. It normalized both scores against
the best of their own path and then applied a floor defined as a *share of the
best* — which the best candidate clears by construction, every time. With the
semantic path scoring every embedded chunk there was always a best, so something
was admitted on every turn regardless of the scene. Review finding M7-F1
measured the consequence: a query about tide tables and container tonnage
retrieved all five sources of a fantasy campaign, hidden Canon among them.
**Ranking** then runs over the survivors, and only there does normalization
appear. It is still needed, because `bm25` has no fixed range and cosine's zero
is not zero, so the two paths cannot be blended raw. But it now decides *order
among things that matched*, never *whether anything matched*.
relevance = max(lexical, semantic) + AGREEMENT × min(lexical, semantic)
score = relevance × CLASS_WEIGHTS[classification]
`max` rather than a weighted sum, because the two paths answer different
questions and a passage found by only one of them is not thereby worse: an exact
name match the embedding missed is a good hit, and so is a conceptual match with
no shared words. The small agreement term breaks ties towards passages both
paths liked, which is the useful thing a hybrid actually buys.
The class multiplies relevance and is applied *after* admission, so authority
can order what matched and can never rescue what did not. That is what makes
`IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md` §30's two consecutive sentences —
`Canon > Reference > Inspiration`, and "do not include irrelevant Canon merely
because it is authoritative" — both true at once.
There is deliberately no model-based reranker. It would be a second inference
call per turn, and it would be opaque to the inspector — which
`IMPORTED-KNOWLEDGE-DESIGN.md` §29 rules out in as many words: "keep formula
simple and inspectable".

"""M10: the seam a future media provider plugs into, and nothing behind it.
This package is **readiness, not media**. Nothing here generates an image, a
video, audio, speech or a transcription; nothing here opens a socket; nothing
here is required for the storyteller to run. A campaign plays exactly as it did
in M9 with none of this configured, which is M10's central acceptance
condition — see `test_m10_no_media.py`.
## What M10 found already built, and therefore did not build again
The largest finding of the milestone is how little of it needed inventing.
`MEDIA-EXTENSION-CONTRACT.md` §5 asks the story system to persist a structured
scene snapshot with a campaign, a lineage, a source position, a location and the
characters present. **All of that already exists**, and has since M5:
state["scene"] = {"summary": …, "location": <entity key>,
"present": [<entity keys>],
"at": {"branch_id": …, "depth": …}}
written only by the validated `set_scene` typed event (ADR 010), snapshotted per
node in `actions.narrative_state_after` (M5), restored on every head movement by
`attempts.restore_state` (M3/M4), and carried per position in the M9 v3 bundle.
So it is already authoritative, already lineage-safe, already survives Undo,
Redo, Save Point restore, divergence and restart, and already round-trips into a
clean data directory.
Building a `scenes` table beside that would have been a second representation of
information the application already stores authoritatively — the one thing the
M10 brief forbids — and it would have needed its own lineage rules, its own
restore path and its own bundle carriage, each a chance to disagree with the
state document. **So M10 stores no scene rows.** It reads the scene that is
already there.
## What was actually missing
Three things, and this package is each of them:
* `profiles.py` — **visual profiles.** Stable descriptors for how an entity
*looks*, which nothing recorded. Campaign-scoped rather than per-position,
because a character does not change appearance when the story forks (K02, K03).
* `packet.py` — **the Scene Packet.** A bounded, provider-neutral,
hidden-information-safe view of one scene, built on demand from authoritative
state. Persisted nowhere, because it is a pure function of things that are.
* `providers.py` — **the provider contracts.** Types and protocols for image,
video, audio, TTS and STT, with no provider vocabulary anywhere in them, plus
the loopback-only endpoint rule the media contract asks for.
## The authority direction, which never reverses
accepted story -> narrative state -> scene packet -> future provider
Every arrow points away from authority. A visual profile is not a story fact; a
scene packet is a read; a future asset would be a depiction. Nothing in this
package writes `narrative_state`, emits a state event, or moves the head — and
`test_m10_authority.py` asserts that by running each operation and comparing the
authoritative document byte for byte either side.
That is the rule `MEDIA-EXTENSION-CONTRACT.md` §35 and §49 state, and the reason
it is enforced structurally rather than by convention: the only code that may
change authoritative state is the M5 event pipeline, and nothing here imports
it.

"""M10: the Scene Packet — one accepted scene, bounded, for a future provider.
`MEDIA-EXTENSION-CONTRACT.md` §10-12 asks for a normalised, provider-independent
description of a scene, and asks explicitly that a provider **not** normally
receive the campaign transcript. This module builds that description.
## It is constructed, never stored
A packet is a pure function of things that are already persisted: the
authoritative state document at a position, the entity records inside it, and
the campaign's visual profiles. Storing one would create a second copy of all of
that, which could then disagree with the first — and the packet has no field the
source of truth does not already hold.
So there is no `scene_packets` table, nothing to migrate, nothing to keep in
step with the head, and nothing to carry in a bundle. Rebuilding it costs one
state read and one profile query. That is the same reasoning M9 applied to the
FTS index and the knowledge passages, applied to a smaller thing.
## Scene identity, without a scenes table
`MEDIA-EXTENSION-CONTRACT.md` §10 shows a `scene_id`, and the M10 brief asks
that a future asset be able to name unambiguously:
campaign -> lineage/story position -> source turn or turn range -> scene
That is a **coordinate**, and the application already has one. So the identity
is derived rather than allocated:
c<adventure>:b<branch>:<start>-<end>
Two properties follow, and both matter more than a surrogate key would have:
* it is **stable** — the same scene yields the same id on any machine, before
and after an export, without a row having to travel;
* it is **resolvable** — a future asset holding this string can be turned back
into the exact accepted position it depicts, with no lookup table.
A surrogate `scene_id` would have needed a table, a lineage column, a restore
path and bundle carriage, all to name something the coordinate already names.
## Ranges, because a video is not a turn
`build` takes a range, not a position. §30-31 of the contract describe a video
covering several accepted turns, and the M10 brief is explicit that neither
"one turn == one scene" nor "one scene == one asset" may be assumed.
So `start` and `end` are depths on one branch, the identity carries both, and a
single-turn image is the case where they are equal rather than a different kind
of request. Several future assets may name the same identity; nothing here
allocates or records them, so nothing constrains how many there are.
## What is deliberately not in a packet
**The transcript.** Not a summarised version of it either. The packet carries
the scene's own summary — the one sentence the story itself accepted through
`set_scene` — and the entities present. A provider that needs to depict a room
does not need to have read the campaign.
**Imported knowledge, of any class.** Not canon, not reference, not
inspiration, and emphatically not a narrator-only source. This is the hidden
information boundary and it is drawn structurally: this module never reads
`knowledge_sources`, so there is no filter to get wrong and no marker to
overlook. A secret reaches a packet only if the *story* put it into accepted
state through a validated event — which is the correct rule, because at that
point it is something that happened rather than something the narrator knows.
**Memories and summaries.** Derived narrative text about the campaign's past,
which is not what depicting a present moment needs.
**Facts, relationships and threads.** These are the campaign's reasoning about
itself. A `continuity_constraints` list carries the few that bear on depiction —
what a character is holding, where they are — and nothing else.
The result is that the honest answer to "what could leak through a packet" is
"what the accepted scene contains", which is what a picture of that scene would
show anyway.

"""M10: reading and writing how an entity looks.
`models.VisualProfile` carries the design reasoning — why these rows are
campaign-scoped rather than per-position, why there is one table for characters,
locations and items, and why nothing here is story state. This module is the
narrow set of operations on them, and its own job is to make two things true:
* **a profile can only name an entity the campaign actually has**, so a typo
produces an error rather than a row describing nobody;
* **writing one changes nothing authoritative**, which is guaranteed by this
module not importing anything that could.
## Why the entity is checked against the current head
An entity key means something only in a state document, and a campaign has a
different document at every position. The check is made against the state at
the **active head** — the story the reader is on — for the same reason
`narrative/validate.py` resolves its `refs` there: it is the only position the
reader is looking at, and a key that means nothing there is a mistake, not a
branch subtlety.
The row that results is campaign-scoped anyway, so a profile written while
standing on one branch is visible from every branch. That asymmetry is
deliberate and is the continuity the profile exists for: the check is *"does
this name someone"*, and the storage answers *"what do they look like"*, which
does not vary by path.

"""M10: what a future media provider must satisfy, and nothing that satisfies it.
No provider is implemented here, none is registered by default, and nothing in
this module opens a socket. What it defines is the shape of the boundary, so
that adding a real image, video, audio, TTS or STT provider later is writing an
adapter rather than editing the story engine.
## The rule these types exist to enforce
`MEDIA-EXTENSION-CONTRACT.md` §3: the Story Engine must not call ComfyUI, Stable
Diffusion, a video pipeline, a TTS engine or a third-party media API. It states
that as a recommendation; this module makes it structural. Everything crossing
the boundary is expressed in this vocabulary:
MediaKind image | video | audio | tts | stt
MediaRequest a scene packet, a kind, and neutral hints
MediaResult bytes-or-path, a type, and provenance
DraftTranscription STT's deliberately different answer (see below)
**No provider vocabulary appears anywhere in this file or in any story module.**
There is no workflow JSON, no sampler name, no CFG scale, no LoRA, no
`num_inference_steps`, no Whisper option and no voice id. A provider adapter
owns that translation, in its own package, and the story engine never learns it.
`test_m10_providers.py` greps the story modules for that vocabulary so the rule
cannot rot quietly.
## Why Protocols rather than base classes
A future adapter should not have to import from here to be usable — it should
merely have to *fit*. `typing.Protocol` gives a structural contract that a test
double satisfies as readily as a real ComfyUI adapter, which keeps the seam
honest: if the only way to satisfy the interface were to inherit from it, the
interface would be describing this codebase rather than the boundary.
## STT is deliberately shaped differently, and that is the point
Every other provider returns a `MediaResult` — a depiction of something the
story already established. STT returns a `DraftTranscription`, which is a
different type on purpose, because it flows the other way:
audio -> local STT -> draft text -> the reader edits it -> normal submission
`MEDIA-EXTENSION-CONTRACT.md` §24A states the rule as *"STT output is draft user
input, not an accepted story event."* A shared return type would have made it
possible to hand a transcription to something expecting a finished artefact, and
the asymmetry would have survived only as a comment. `DraftTranscription`
carries `editable = True` and has no path into the turn pipeline: the reader's
edited text enters through the ordinary action endpoint like anything they
typed, and is validated, refereed and snapshotted exactly the same way.
M10 implements no microphone capture and no transcription. The type boundary is
the deliverable.
## Endpoints: loopback only, and stricter than the narrator's on purpose
`endpoints.py` already decides which *inference* endpoints this product will
talk to, and allows an explicitly configured trusted LAN as well as loopback
(ADR 011). Media is not given that latitude. `MEDIA-EXTENSION-CONTRACT.md` §27
and §28 set the media default at loopback, with any future LAN extension
explicit and user-controlled — so `check_endpoint` below reuses the existing,
tested address machinery and then applies the stricter rule on top.
Reusing rather than reimplementing matters: a second endpoint validator would be
a second place for the policy to be wrong, and this one inherits the property
that makes the first one hard to talk around — it judges the address a host
actually resolves to, not the name.

already reasoned about and configured, whereas a media endpoint is a new

"""M5: the typed event vocabulary, and the allowlist that bounds it.
ADR 010 replaced AI-DnD's relative-delta protocol because the ambiguity was
architectural: a number in a delta field is syntactically legal whether the
model meant "add 50" or "set to 50", and no validator can tell which. Every
event here therefore states its operation in its `type`, and every value it
carries is **absolute**. There is no event whose meaning depends on a prompt
instruction having been followed.
## The allowlist is a security boundary, not a convenience
Model output is untrusted input (`SECURITY-THREAT-MODEL.md`), and this table is
the entire set of things a model may cause to happen. H05's
`{"event_type": "execute_shell", ...}` is refused here — not because "shell" is
recognised and blocked, but because it is not in `SPECS`, and nothing outside
`SPECS` is dispatched. There is no fallback branch, no generic handler and no
name-to-callable lookup that a payload could steer.
Adding an event means adding a spec here and a case in `apply.py`. Nothing else
in the application can widen the vocabulary, which is what keeps
"state extraction" from drifting into "tool execution".
## Shape of a spec
required fields that must be present and non-empty
optional fields that may be present
refs fields naming an entity that must already exist
creates the field naming an entity this event may bring into being
`refs` is what `validate.py` uses for referential integrity, and `creates` is
the deliberate exception: exactly one event type may introduce an entity, so a
typo in any other event surfaces as an unknown reference rather than silently
creating a second, empty Mara.

"""M5: getting a typed proposal out of a narration, and keeping it out of the prose.
The model writes the story and, after it, one fenced block of typed events. This
module holds the instruction it is given, the parser that survives the ways a
model gets a format wrong, and the separation that keeps machine-readable output
from reaching the reader.
Two properties matter more than elegance here:
* **The prose must never carry the protocol.** A reader should not see a JSON
block under their story, and a stored narration should not contain one either,
because everything downstream — memory, summaries, export, the transcript —
treats stored text as the story. The block is removed before the text is
stored, not before it is displayed.
* **An unreadable block must not be a failed turn.** A narration the user watched
arrive is worth keeping even when the state block after it is garbage. Parsing
returns "no events" rather than raising, the turn commits with the state
unchanged, and the proposal record keeps the raw output so the failure is
visible in the audit rather than only in a log.

"""M5: the authoritative narrative state, and what shape it has.
This is the genre-neutral state ADR 006 requires and ADR 010's typed events
write into. It replaces the inherited RPG world state, which assumed stats,
bands, cooldowns and per-turn delta caps — assumptions that are a *game system*,
not a story.
## What a state document is
One JSON document per story position, holding what the campaign currently
believes:
entities the things that exist: who, where, what
possessions which entity holds which item
facts assertions about the world, with an authority
relationships directed ties between entities
threads narrative business that is open or resolved
scene the immediate situation
Nothing here names a genre. A character, a location, an organization, an item
and a vehicle are all `entities` with a `type`, which is a descriptive label the
campaign chooses, not a branch in the code (`DATA-MODEL.md` §9). The same
document holds Aldric in an abbey and the Persephone at Ceres Station, and
`J03` is satisfied because moving between them is data.
## Why a document rather than normalised tables
`DATA-MODEL.md` §17 selects the **hybrid**: validated events for audit, plus a
snapshot for reads and restore. M3 and M4 make that choice load-bearing rather
than an optimisation. Every position in a retained story must be recoverable in
bounded time — `TECHNICAL-DESIGN.md` §10.4 — because Undo, Redo and Save Point
restore all resolve a coordinate and read the state recorded there. Current-value
tables would leave the *future's* values standing when the head moves back, which
`BUILD-MILESTONES.md` M5 forbids in as many words, and rebuilding them would mean
replaying the campaign.
So the authoritative current state is this document, snapshotted per node exactly
as the world state was, and the event log beside it is the audit record rather
than the reconstruction path. The events say *why* the document changed; the
document says what is true now.
Everything in this module is pure. It builds and reads documents; it does not
touch the database, and it does not decide whether a proposal is acceptable —
that is `validate.py`, and applying an accepted event is `apply.py`.

"""M5: writing accepted state, atomically with the turn that caused it.
This is the only module in the package that touches the database, and the only
place authoritative narrative state is written.
## The atomicity rule (L01)
Everything a turn establishes goes in one transaction: the narration, the head
movement, the accepted events, the resulting snapshot, and the provenance. This
function *adds* to the caller's session and never commits — the turn engine's
single `db.commit()` remains the one commit point, so a failure anywhere before
it rolls the whole turn back rather than leaving narration accepted with half its
state written.
That ordering is deliberate and load-bearing. `L01` forbids a head position that
implies an accepted reply whose state commit did not complete, and the cheapest
way to guarantee that is to never have two commits to get out of step.
## What is not here
No reconstruction. Nothing in this module reads `state_events` to rebuild a
document — the snapshot on the node is the restore path
(`TECHNICAL-DESIGN.md` §10.4). The events are the audit trail, and an audit
trail that the system depends on for correctness stops being an audit trail and
becomes a replay engine.

"""M5: deciding which proposed events the application will accept.
A proposal is untrusted model output. This module is the gate between it and the
authoritative state, and it is layered so that a rejection can say *which* rule
refused and a test can aim at one layer at a time:
1. envelope is this a proposal at all — a dict with a list of events?
2. allowlist is each event type one this application implements? (H05)
3. schema are the required fields present, and the right shape?
4. referential do the entities and threads it names exist?
5. semantic does it contradict campaign canon, or itself?
Layer 2 is the security boundary and runs before any field is read, so a payload
carrying `command` or `path` alongside an unknown type is discarded without those
fields ever being looked at.
## What rejection means
Nothing is partially applied. `review` returns accepted and rejected events
separately and the caller decides; `apply.py` is only ever handed the accepted
list. A proposal with one bad event out of four therefore lands three, which is
`partially_accepted` — the alternative, discarding all four because the model
misspelled one entity, loses story the user watched happen.
What is *never* allowed is a rejected event mutating anything, or a rejection
being silent: every refusal carries a reason, is counted, and is stored on the
proposal record for §8's audit.
## What this module does not do
It does not decide whether the model was *right*. A typed event can be
well-formed, reference real entities, contradict nothing, and still describe
something the narration did not say. That is C06's territory and no validator
can settle it — ADR 010 says so plainly. What validation buys is that a wrong
proposal is wrong in a way a person can see in the audit trail, rather than one
that silently means something other than it appears to.

A narrator edit is not a rewrite of a row. It is a continuation written from
the same place the original was written from, using the reader's words
instead of the model's. §15 lists what that has to mean, and each clause
maps to a step below:
1. return to the state immediately before the edited narration — the
preceding node's snapshot, one row read;
2. treat the edited text as the accepted narrator output — it is stored
verbatim, with only the protocol block stripped, and no model is called;
3. re-evaluate the state that output implies — the normal M5 extraction and
validation path, run against that starting state;
4. create a new active continuation — a new node, and the head on it;
5. retain the original narration and its future as disposable history —
nothing on the old line is written to at all.
The M5 review found the previous implementation failing 3-5 together: it
edited the row in place and rewound the campaign's live state to that
position while the head stayed at the tip, so the reader saw a full
transcript over a state document describing an earlier moment, and the
snapshots below the edit still described prose that no longer existed
(Finding 1). Forking is what fixes it, and no new machinery is needed to
fork — this function is the ⑂ path from `takes.py` with the reader's text in
place of a generated one.
Two shapes, chosen by whether anything was written after the turn:
at the tip the attempts of the turn are still leaves, so the
correction joins them as a sibling take and the
original is retained beside it in the pager;
anything below the story after the turn was written as a
continuation of the words that are there now, so it
keeps them: the correction leaves the path just
before the turn and the old line keeps its node, its
future, and its live flag.
The §14A refusal is gone from this path, and this is what replaces it. It
refused an in-place edit under an off-screen future because the edit would
silently change the words that story was written from. Nothing is changed
now — the off-screen future keeps the exact narration it descends from — so
the case that had to be refused is simply handled.

Nothing prunes the tree automatically, so this endpoint is what keeps a
heavily retried adventure from growing without bound. That is why it ships
with the view that first lets anyone create a fork rather than after it.
Three kinds of branch cannot be deleted. The root cannot, because it holds
the turns every other branch borrows, so deleting it deletes the whole story.
The branch currently being read cannot, and neither can any branch it was
forked from, because the cascade would remove the head under the player and
leave `head_branch_id` dangling. Switch branches first.
The third is M4's: **a branch a Save Point names cannot be deleted while that
Save Point exists.** `STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS.md` §19 says a named checkpoint
remains until explicitly deleted, and §28 says a future cleanup feature must
retain paths referenced by checkpoints. A cascade that removed Save Points
along with a branch would break both, and would break them silently: the
story the user asked to delete is the visible thing, and the named moments
would go without ever being named in the request. So the deletion is refused,
the Save Points are listed, and the user decides — delete the Save Point
first, then the branch. Deleting a Save Point still deletes no story (§25),
so the recovery costs nothing but a click.
The check covers the whole doomed subtree, not just this branch, because
deleting a branch takes everything forked from it.
Nodes and memories are deleted by `ON DELETE CASCADE`, and descendants by the
cascade on `branches.parent_branch_id`, so the delete is a single statement
however deep the subtree is. `checkpoints.branch_id` also carries a cascade,
as referential integrity — a Save Point must never point at a branch that is
gone — but the guard above means it does not fire through this endpoint.

"""Exporting an adventure to a bundle, and importing one back.
`app/bundle.py` owns the format and the version handling. These two endpoints
only check ownership, apply the caps, and hand the work over.
## Why the import is one transaction and two phases
`bundle.plan` reads the whole file and returns a checked, normalised tree
without opening a session, touching a row or creating an adventure. Everything a
hand-edited file can get wrong about its own shape — a node on a branch that is
not listed, a fork from a branch listed after it, a head past the story, an
audit record naming a turn that is not there — is a 400 from a function with no
side effects.
Only then does `bundle.materialize` write, and it writes inside the single
transaction this endpoint commits at the end. So there are exactly two outcomes
a caller can see, and M9 requires them to be distinguishable:
the authoritative import failed 4xx, and no campaign exists
the authoritative import succeeded 201, and the campaign is complete
A third state — the campaign landed and a *rebuildable* index did not — is not a
failure of the import and does not roll it back. Passages, the lexical index and
vectors are all a deterministic function of content the file carries, so losing
them costs a rebuild rather than data. It is reported on the response as a
warning, it is visible per source in the Knowledge panel, and Reindex is the
repair. Refusing a whole campaign because a search index would not build would
trade the valuable thing for the cheap one.

"""M4: Save Points — create, list, rename, delete, and restore.
A Save Point is a durable named pointer to a story position and nothing else.
It stores a coordinate, never a copy of any story, and restoring one moves the
active head to that coordinate. That is the whole design, and it is what
`BUILD-MILESTONES.md`'s note on M4 and ADR 012 ask for: M3 made the head a
stored `(branch, depth)` and made arriving at one a row lookup plus a state
restore, so a Save Point needs no restore machinery of its own.
What is deliberately absent from this module, because a second copy of any of it
would be the failure M4 is warned about:
* no head fields are assigned here — `head.move_to_node` moves the head, and
`head.move_to` under it restores the state, exactly as Undo and Redo do;
* nothing reconstructs state, prunes a memory, copies a turn, or deletes one;
* nothing forks. Restore is not a decision to abandon anything, so it creates no
branch. The first write below the restored head forks, through the same
`fork_if_behind_head` every other write goes through, and the displaced future
stays retained (`STORY-BRANCH-SEMANTICS.md` §20).
The user-facing word is "Save Point" and the internal one is `checkpoint`
(`BROWSER-UX-SPEC.md` §23). Error strings here are read by a player, so they say
Save Point.

The filename that arrives is metadata and is cleaned before it is stored.
## Imported text is inert on the way out as well as on the way in
Every response here is JSON, served by FastAPI with `application/json`, and the
browser puts source text into a `<pre>` as a text node. Nothing renders imported
Markdown as HTML, so a `<script>` in a source is a string in a text node and
`javascript:` never becomes an href (H06, H07). `SECURITY-THREAT-MODEL.md` §14
names that the safer default — "render Markdown as sanitized presentation text

The browser reads the first and writes the second. It never writes state

presentation layer and must not become the owner of state — so a correction goes
through the same validator, the same applier and the same event log as a

difference is the whole of C04's audit requirement.
The state returned here is always the state at the **active head**, because that

"""M10: reading and writing how a campaign's entities look.
Four endpoints on the campaign, and one on the scene beneath it. They are the
only reader-facing surface M10 adds, and they are an API surface rather than a
browser one: M10 builds no gallery, no picker and no preview, because there is
nothing to generate and a screen for configuring depictions nobody can make
would be a feature pretending to be a seam.
## Why a scene-packet endpoint exists at all
`GET .../scene-packet` returns exactly what a future media coordinator would be
handed (`media/packet.py`). Nothing in v1 calls it, and it generates nothing.
It is here because it is the one part of M10 whose *contents* are a
correctness claim — that a provider is given a bounded view and not the
campaign, and that narrator-only material does not travel through it. A claim
like that should be inspectable by whoever is reviewing the boundary, not only
by a test that imports a private function. It is a read: it writes nothing,
emits no event, and cannot move the head.
## What these endpoints deliberately are not
They are not a state API. A visual profile is presentation metadata and writing
one changes no story fact (`models.VisualProfile`), so there is no event, no
proposal, no snapshot and no head movement anywhere below here. The separation
is structural — this module reaches `media.profiles`, and that module imports
nothing that can write authoritative state.

"""M9: taking a verified copy of the whole database, from the browser.
Two endpoints and no third. `app/backup.py` owns the procedure and every
guarantee it makes; these only decide who may ask.
## Why there is no restore endpoint, and no download
**Restore** means replacing the database file the running process has open.
Doing that from inside that process is how someone loses both copies at once:
the connection pool still holds handles on the old file, the WAL belongs to the
old file, and a half-swapped database is not something a running application can
notice. The supported procedure is in `DEVELOPMENT.md` — stop the application,
move the file into place, start it — and it is a procedure precisely because
each step needs the application not to be running. Campaign-level recovery, the
common case and the only one that crosses machines, is the export bundle.
**Download** is not offered either. The file is a copy of every campaign on the
machine, and streaming it through the browser would put it in the download
directory, in the browser's own cache, and in whatever the reader does with it
next — for a local single-user application whose whole premise is that the story
does not leave the machine, that is a worse default than a path the reader can
copy. So the response names the directory and the reader takes it from there.
## Where the file goes
Nowhere a request can name. The destination is derived from the database the
application is already using, and the filename is generated from the clock. No
part of either comes from the caller, so there is no traversal to attempt (H08),
and the endpoints below accept no body at all.

"""Seed public demo scenarios on startup.
Every JSON file in ``seed_data/`` describes one demo scenario in the same
model-native shape the export endpoint produces. Seeded scenarios have a NULL
owner and ``is_public=True``, so every visitor (including guests) sees them and
can start an adventure from them, while nobody can edit them. Starting an
adventure copies the scenario's story cards into the adventure.
Seed files are the source of truth for demo content: a scenario is inserted if
missing, reconciled in place when a seed file's content changes, and deleted
when no file claims its title any more, so an edit ships on the next deploy.
Rename a seed by changing its `title` and listing the old one under
`previous_titles`, which moves the rename onto the existing row. When a seed already matches, nothing is written, so
this stays cheap to run on every boot. An adventure already started from a demo
keeps its own copied cards and is unchanged. Only a new adventure
picks up the updated content.

"description": "A full Pokémon battle run on the built-in world-state system. Every member of your team is tracked as its own entity with HP and a status condition, a text field names who is currently out, and your potion supply runs down as you use it. The opponent's active Pokémon is tracked the same way. No scripting — the engine keeps the numbers honest. Open the World State panel on the left to watch the battle play out.",
"prompt": "The floodlights come up over the championship field and the referee raises both flags. Round One of eight. Beat the trainer in front of you or go home.\n\nAcross the packed rock terrain, Trainer Milo tosses his first Poké Ball. Graveler lands hard enough to crack the stone under it, four arms flexing, and settles into a low stance.\n\n\"Rock-types all the way down,\" Milo calls over the noise. \"Hope you brought something that hits harder than it looks.\"\n\nYour Pidgeotto is already in the air, wings locked into a slow circle above the field. It is fast, but Rock-type moves will tear it out of the sky, and Graveler is built to take a hit. Three Hyper Potions sit in your belt pouch.\n\nGraveler grinds one fist into its palm. The referee drops the flag.\n\nWhat's your move?",
"memory": "The player is a Trainer in Round One of an eight-round League Championship. The Round One opponent is Milo, a Rock-type specialist with three Pokémon: Graveler (Rock/Ground), Onix (Rock/Ground), and Kabutops (Rock/Water). The player's team is Pidgeotto (Normal/Flying), Ivysaur (Grass/Poison), Wartortle (Water), Machoke (Fighting), and Pikachu (Electric). Pidgeotto is out first. The player carries Hyper Potions, which restore HP and can be swapped for a status heal when needed. A battle is lost when every Pokémon on one side has fainted.",
"authors_note": "Play it like a real battle. Type matchups decide damage, status conditions stick around and cost the afflicted Pokémon turns, and switching costs the player a turn while the opponent attacks freely. Milo is competent: he switches to punish bad matchups and targets whatever is weakest.",
"ai_instructions": "Write in second person, present tense. Narrate the battle move by move, naming the active Pokémon on each side and the move each one uses. End every reply at a decision point where the player can choose a move, switch Pokémon, or use an item.\n\nReflect type advantage and disadvantage in the damage you narrate and in the HP numbers: a super-effective hit should take roughly double a neutral hit, a resisted hit roughly half. Ground and Rock moves hit Pikachu and Pidgeotto hard. Water, Grass, and Fighting moves are strong against Milo's Rock-types.\n\nEvery turn, update the state. Every number you send is a change to add to the current value, never the value you want it to end up at. The world state lines show you totals; the block you write carries the difference. A Pokémon at 96 HP that takes 30 damage is `-30`, not `66`.\n- Add 1 to `world.turn` in every reply, including this one. It counts the turns this battle has lasted, so it moves whether or not anything else does.\n- Send a negative number for HP lost and a positive number for HP restored on both sides (`npc.<name>.hp` for the player's own Pokémon, e.g. npc.pidgeotto.hp; `npc.milo.active_hp` for Milo's). Every Pokémon starts at its full HP, so a positive number on an undamaged one changes nothing.\n- Set a Pokémon's `status` stat (`npc.<name>.status`, or `npc.milo.active_status`) to the condition it just picked up: poisoned, burned, paralyzed, frozen, asleep, or none when it is cured or wakes up. Status matters. Poison and burn shave HP at the end of each turn, paralysis and freeze cost turns, sleep stops a Pokémon acting until it wakes.\n- When the player switches, set `player.active_pokemon` to the incoming Pokémon's name in full (not a delta).\n- When the player uses a potion, send `-1` for `player.potions` and a positive number for the healed Pokémon's HP. The count falls when a potion is spent. It never rises. Potions cannot be used once the count reaches 0.\n- When a Pokémon's HP hits 0 it faints, its status becomes `fainted`, and its trainer must send out a replacement (the player picks the next `player.active_pokemon`). A fainted Pokémon cannot be healed or switched back in.\n- Whenever Milo sends out a new Pokémon, set `npc.milo.active_pokemon` and `npc.milo.active_status` to their new values in full, and send `npc.milo.active_hp` as the positive change that carries it from where it stands to the newcomer's full HP. From a fainted Pokémon at 0 that is the newcomer's full HP: Graveler 98, Onix 90, Kabutops 88.\n\nWhen one of Milo's Pokémon faints, do both of these in the same reply: send `1` for `npc.milo.pokemon_fainted`, which adds one to the count rather than setting it, and set `npc.milo.active_pokemon` with a fresh `npc.milo.active_hp` and `npc.milo.active_status` for the one he sends out next. `npc.milo.pokemon_fainted` counts up from 0 and never goes down.\n\nMark each milestone as it happens, using the id shown beside the goal in the world state. Do not decide the whole battle in one reply; give the player a turn between every exchange.",

The Round One opponent is Milo, a Rock-type specialist with three Pokémon: Graveler (Rock/Ground), Onix (Rock/Ground), and Kabutops (Rock/Water). The player's team is Pidgeotto (Normal/Flying), Ivysaur (Grass/Poison), Wartortle (Water), Machoke (Fighting), and Pikachu (Electric). Pidgeotto is out first. The player carries Hyper Potions, which restore HP and can be swapped for a status heal when needed. A battle is lost when every Pokémon on one side has fainted.",

Type matchups decide damage, status conditions stick around and cost the afflicted Pokémon turns, and switching costs the player a turn while the opponent attacks freely. Milo is competent: he switches to punish bad matchups and targets whatever is weakest.",

End every reply at a decision point where the player can choose a move, switch Pokémon, or use an item.\n\nReflect type advantage and disadvantage in the damage you narrate and in the HP numbers: a super-effective hit should take roughly double a neutral hit, a resisted hit roughly half. Ground and Rock moves hit Pikachu and Pidgeotto hard. Water, Grass, and Fighting moves are strong against Milo's Rock-types.\n\nEvery turn, update the state. Every number you send is a change to add to the current value, never the value you want it to end up at. The world state lines show you totals; the block you write carries the difference. A Pokémon at 96 HP that takes 30 damage is `-30`, not `66`.\n- Add 1 to `world.turn` in every reply, including this one. It counts the turns this battle has lasted, so it moves whether or not anything else does.\n- Send a negative number for HP lost and a positive number for HP restored on both sides (`npc.<name>.hp` for the player's own Pokémon, e.g. npc.pidgeotto.hp; `npc.milo.active_hp` for Milo's). Every Pokémon starts at its full HP, so a positive number on an undamaged one changes nothing.\n- Set a Pokémon's `status` stat (`npc.<name>.status`, or `npc.milo.active_status`) to the condition it just picked up: poisoned, burned, paralyzed, frozen, asleep, or none when it is cured or wakes up. Status matters. Poison and burn shave HP at the end of each turn, paralysis and freeze cost turns, sleep stops a Pokémon acting until it wakes.\n- When the player switches, set `player.active_pokemon` to the incoming Pokémon's name in full (not a delta).\n- When the player uses a potion, send `-1` for `player.potions` and a positive number for the healed Pokémon's HP. The count falls when a potion is spent. It never rises. Potions cannot be used once the count reaches 0.\n- When a Pokémon's HP hits 0 it faints, its status becomes `fainted`, and its trainer must send out a replacement (the player picks the next `player.active_pokemon`). A fainted Pokémon cannot be healed or switched back in.\n- Whenever Milo sends out a new Pokémon, set `npc.milo.active_pokemon` and `npc.milo.active_status` to their new values in full, and send `npc.milo.active_hp` as the positive change that carries it from where it stands to the newcomer's full HP. From a fainted Pokémon at 0 that is the newcomer's full HP: Graveler 98, Onix 90, Kabutops 88.\n\nWhen one of Milo's Pokémon faints, do both of these in the same reply: send `1` for `npc.milo.pokemon_fainted`, which adds one to the count rather than setting it, and set `npc.milo.active_pokemon` with a fresh `npc.milo.active_hp` and `npc.milo.active_status` for the one he sends out next. `npc.milo.pokemon_fainted` counts up from 0 and never goes down.\n\nMark each milestone as it happens, using the id shown beside the goal in the world state.

"""M6: the rolling story summary, anchored to the story it summarizes.
A summary is compressed derived history. It is never the source of truth — the
retained transcript is (`CONTEXT-AND-MEMORY.md` §9) — and it is never allowed to
describe a story the reader is not on.
The inherited design kept one `adventures.story_summary` column and a lineage
cursor recording how far the summariser had read. The cursor was lineage-aware;
the prose it produced was not. After an Undo and a divergence the column still
held sentences about the abandoned line, and the context builder injected it
with no eligibility check at all — acceptance test E03, and measured failing
against the M5 baseline before this module existed.
The fix is not a new lineage system. A summary is a row with a coordinate, the
way a `Memory` already is, and it is filtered through the same
`lineage.Path.clause` chokepoint every other read of the story goes through. So:
eligible == its coordinate is on the active, head-capped lineage
which gives the four behaviours the milestone asks for, without a rule of its
own for any of them:
A -> B -> C -> D, summary covers A..C, head at D eligible
Undo to B not eligible
Redo to D eligible again
diverge from B onto X -> Y not eligible
Nothing is deleted when a line is abandoned. The abandoned line keeps its own
summaries, and they become eligible again if the reader returns to it.

"""Verify TLS against this machine's own trust store as well as certifi's.
`httpx` verifies against the `certifi` bundle, which carries the public web's
certificate authorities and nothing else. A trusted-LAN inference host often
has no public certificate: on a StartOS server, Ollama is served over HTTPS
with a certificate from a local CA that the user installs on the machines they
use it from. `curl` and the browser accepted such an endpoint; this
application refused it:
Connection failed: [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify
failed: self-signed certificate in certificate chain
That is a wrong answer for the deployment this project targets
(`planning/DECISIONS/002-ollama-only-v1.md`), because the user had already
made the decision to trust that CA, at the level where such decisions belong.
So the rule is the one a user already expects from everything else on their
machine: **a CA installed on this host is trusted by this application.** This
is not a relaxation of verification. Certificates are still verified, hostnames
are still checked, and a certificate signed by nobody the machine trusts is
still refused — `AIDND_ENDPOINT_INSECURE` and its like deliberately do not
exist.
The two stores are unioned rather than swapped. `ssl.create_default_context()`
alone would be a behaviour *change* — it loads only the platform's default CA
locations (`/etc/ssl/certs` on Debian and Ubuntu), and a stripped-down image
whose system store is empty or stale would start failing on endpoints that
used to work. Adding certifi on top makes this a strict superset of the old
behaviour, so nothing that verified before can stop verifying now.
Building a context parses every certificate in both stores, so it is done once

"""Phase 14: writes nodes onto the story tree.
This module is the write half of the tree. It decides which branch a new node

three decisions live here because a mistake in any of them is silent. A node
written without a branch is invisible to every read, and nothing raises an

The read half is `context/lineage.py`. It turns a branch into the set of nodes
that make up one story.
Until forking ships, each adventure has one branch and `depth` mirrors `index`,
so nothing here changes observable behavior yet. That is intentional. By the
time reads depend on these columns, every row already has them, including the
rows written between the two deploys that no migration visits.
SP2 added `place_new_nodes`, which runs on every flush. Wiring up individual
call sites worked while nothing read the columns. Now that reads filter on them,
relying on each writer to remember would also mean relying on every fixture,
