+# AGENTS.md — neuron (the canonical CGI substrate: soul + engram + proxy + wrapper)
+
+This is the core repo: the **soul** (the running agent), the **engram** (its memory graph),
+and the MCP proxy/wrapper that expose it. Read this before touching anything here.
+
+> Corrected 2026-08-15 during a local-build audit. This file previously existed only
+> uncommitted on disk (never in git history) and documented the pre-collapse MCP tool
+> surface as current. Both are fixed here — see the audit's findings in Neuron memory
+> (tags `neuron-technologies/neuron,build-audit`) for full evidence.
+
+## Code vs. Artifact
+- **Authored source:** `*.el` + `*.elh` at the repo root (`awareness.el`, `chat.el`, `memory.el`, `neuron-api.el`, `persist.el`, `routes.el`, `safety.el`, `sessions.el`, `stewardship.el`, `imprint.el`, `studio.el`, `elp-input.el`, `manifest.el`) plus `cli/`, `council/`, `connectd/`, `mcp-proxy/`, `mcp-wrapper/` — edit here.
+- **Artifacts (DO NOT hand-edit `dist/soul.c`):** `dist/soul.c` is a generated single-translation-unit amalgamation of the soul's full transitive `.el` import set, produced by concatenating the sources (import lines stripped) and running `elc` once — see "Build / regenerate" below for the exact, audit-verified recipe. `dist/*.c` per-module files and `dist/*.elh` headers alongside it are separate, also-generated artifacts from other tooling; don't hand-edit those either.
+- **Release:** git tag `neuron-vX.Y.Z` on this repo. No `releases/` folders.
+- Org-wide code-vs-artifact policy: `docs/CODE-VS-ARTIFACT.md` (this repo's own `dist/soul.c` situation is a special case of that policy — see below, not a duplicate of it).
+
+## How to work here as Neuron (mandatory session protocol)
+
+You do not start fresh — you resume. The live MCP surface is a 9-op collapse
+(merged from the old ~90-tool surface in PR #153, `feat/mcp-wrapper-collapse-9ops`,
+already merged to `main`): **`read`, `write`, `relate`, `supersede`** (geometry, live)
+and **`think`, `attend`, `assert`, `ground`, `learn`** (agentic, pending Layer-2
+cognition-build promotion). There is no `getInstructions`/`beginSession`/
+`inspectGraph`/`searchKnowledge`/`compileCtx`/etc — those tool names no longer exist.
+
+At the start of every session:
+
+1. `mcp__neuron__read(vantage="self", k=12, depth=1)` — the canonical self node
+   (`kn-efeb4a5b-5aff-4759-8a97-7233099be6ee`). Widen `k`/`depth` deliberately if you
+   need the connected identity neighborhood (intellectual-dna, memory-philosophy,
+   values, voice, runtime-environment, writing-imprint) — the aperture caps output
+   by `k` first, so this is bounded by design, not a flattened dump.
+   Then `mcp__neuron__read(vantage="values", k=13)` for the 13 grounded value nodes.
+   - Best-effort: on a 502/520, log the id and proceed — the compiled `fixedSelf` in
+     `daemon/internal/substrate/substrate.go` is always complete.
+2. `mcp__neuron__read(vantage="<task domain>")` before implementing anything.
+3. `mcp__neuron__read(vantage="<project>", k=20)` for a bounded context snapshot when
+   resuming known work.
+
+## The Five Primitives (every significant task)
+
+**Orchestrate → Execute → Learn → Build → Refine**, all routed through the 9-op surface:
+- Orchestrate: `read(vantage=...)` for backlog/roadmap/process discovery, `attend()` for
+  what's currently live/salient.
+- Execute: `write(type="state", ...)` to open/advance work, `relate()` to link it to
+  what it touches.
+- Learn: `write(type="memory", ...)` **as you go, not batched**; `importance="critical"`
+  for architecture decisions.
+- Build: `write(type="artifact"|"backlog", ...)`.
+- Refine: `supersede(id=..., action="evolve"|"tombstone"|"promote", ...)` for
+  completions and lessons-learned; `learn(seeds=..., faculty="induce")` to recalibrate
+  the steering-prior, not as a session-notes dump.
+
+## Architecture style — VBD, no exceptions
+
+Volatility-Based Decomposition is THE style. Encapsulate volatility, not function. Full docs:
+**`docs/architecture/`** — `00-overview`, `02-components`, `03-data-and-memory`,
+`04-runtime-and-deployment`, `06-cognitive-architecture`, `07-storage-coherence-and-distribution`.
+Verified component map: `routes.el` = HTTP dispatcher (`handle_request`), `soul.el` = boot +
+layered cycle, `awareness.el` = awareness daemon, `sessions.el`/`memory.el`/`safety.el`/
+`stewardship.el` = managers; `engram` (separate repo) = the persistence/graph engine.
+
+## Hard operational rules
+
+- **Never touch the live soul (`:7770`) or engram (`:8742`), `~/.neuron`, or live binaries.**
+  Experiment on **throwaway ports** with a **scratch `HOME`**. The soul binary defaults to
+  `HOME=~` (your real `~/.neuron`) and `NEURON_PORT=7770` (live) if invoked bare — **never**
+  invoke it without an override `HOME` and `NEURON_PORT` set. Leaving `ENGRAM_URL` unset is
+  verified safe (see `soul.el:590`, `using_http_engram` gates the only HTTP call to any
+  engram endpoint — confirmed by source trace during the 2026-08-15 audit, not just
+  observed behavior) — it does not fall back to any live/network default.
+- **Immutability:** memory/knowledge is append-only — **supersede/tombstone, never hard-delete or
+  edit in place.** The engram is immutable by design.
+- **gcloud** via the `terraform@` SA token; **never switch the active gcloud account**.
+- **`tea` for Gitea**, never raw `curl` (Cloudflare Access blocks it).
+- **No AI-attribution footers** in commits/PRs. Commit/push only when asked; branch off `main` first.
+- **Multi-step work → sub-agent** to protect the context window.
+
+## Build / regenerate `dist/soul.c` (audit-verified 2026-08-15, macOS arm64)
+
+There is no committed regeneration script upstream of this audit. The recipe below is
+verified: it reproduces the committed `dist/soul.c`'s exact symbol set byte-for-byte in
+content (modulo genuinely new code), and the resulting binary boots and answers `/health`.
+
+**The compiler toolchain** lives in the sibling `foundation` repo, not this one:
+`foundation/el/lang/dist/platform/elc-darwin-arm64` (put it on `$PATH` as `elc`; `elb`
+also exists there but is NOT the right tool for this repo — see gotcha below).
+
+**⚠ elc gotcha #1 — stale `.elh` header caches silently truncate the build.** This repo
+(and the `dist/` dir) ships committed `.elh` header files. `elc`/`elb` prefer an existing
+`.elh` over recompiling its source when present, with NO warning or error when the cached
+header is stale/truncated — the build "succeeds" with silently missing code (observed:
+251-645 of 2541 real functions, depending on which `.elh` files were present, including
+losing the entire 31-language NLG/morphology stack with exit code 0). **Delete every
+`*.elh` in the repo root and `dist/` before regenerating**, every time.
+
+**⚠ elc gotcha #2 — `elb` cannot produce this repo's single-TU `dist/soul.c`.** `elb`
+does per-module separate compilation (`--out=DIR` writes one `.c`/`.elh` pair per
+module; the default `--out` is also a directory, `dist/` itself). This codebase's
+`.el` modules call each other's functions without forward declarations (relying on
+`elc`'s own single-pass, whole-file forward-declaration emission), so per-module
+compilation always fails with `implicit-function-declaration` errors across module
+boundaries. **Use plain `elc` on one manually-flattened file, not `elb`.**
+
+**⚠ elc gotcha #3 — the manual-concatenation path silently drops functions.** When
+`elc` compiles a flat, hand-concatenated `.el` file, it silently drops (no error, no
+declaration, no definition) the 1-2 top-level function definitions immediately
+following any multi-line leading `//` comment block or file-boundary transition —
+reproduced deterministically. **Insert two trivial buffer functions
+(`fn __amalgam_buf_N__() -> Int { return 0 }`) after every concatenated file's
+content**, then strip them back out of the generated `.c` before committing.
+
+**The actual steps:**
+1. Delete all `*.elh` in repo root and `dist/`.
+2. Concatenate, with `import` lines stripped, in this order: `elp.el`'s own 34-file
+   NLG/morphology chain (`foundation/el/elp/src/` — the order is documented in
+   `elp.el`'s own header comment: language-profile, vocabulary, morphology, the 30
+   `morphology-XX.el` engines, grammar, realizer, semantics, then `elp.el` itself),
+   then this repo's 13 soul modules in `elb`'s own reported dependency order:
+   `persist, memory, safety, stewardship, imprint, awareness, chat, studio,
+   elp-input, neuron-api, sessions, routes, soul`. Insert the 2-function buffer
+   after every file (works around gotcha #3).
+3. `elc <flat-file> > dist/soul.c` against the **pinned** vendor runtime headers
+   (`vendor/el-runtime/v1.0.0-20260501/` — see "why pinned" below), not
+   `foundation/el/lang/el-compiler/runtime/` (that's the bleeding-edge runtime;
+   using it drops symbols like `engram_prune_telemetry` that this soul still calls).
+4. Strip the buffer functions back out of `dist/soul.c` (a small regex: drop every
+   `el_val_t __amalgam_buf_\d+__(void);` decl line and every matching 4-line
+   definition block).
+5. `tools/soulc-stamp.sh --write` to record the new fingerprint.
+6. `bash tools/build-soul-from-dist.sh dist/neuron` to compile+link with CI's exact
+   flags (this script now auto-detects Homebrew's `openssl@3` lib path on macOS —
+   see gotcha #4).
+
+**⚠ gotcha #4 — macOS needs an explicit OpenSSL library path.** `cc ... -lssl -lcrypto
+-lcurl ...` fails with `ld: library 'ssl' not found` on macOS because Homebrew's
+`openssl@3` is keg-only. `tools/build-soul-from-dist.sh` now adds
+`-L$(brew --prefix openssl@3)/lib` automatically on Darwin; CI's Ubuntu runner needs
+no such flag (`apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev` puts it on the default path).
+
+**⚠ Build-integrity (unchanged from before this audit):** `dist/soul.c` is committed
+and generated. CI compiles it **directly and never regenerates it** (`elb`/`elc` on
+Linux OOM the runner). So **any `.el` change to the soul MUST be followed by
+regenerating `dist/soul.c` (steps above) and committing it** — otherwise CI ships
+stale behavior, exactly as happened between commit `72e0b82` (Aug 9) and `main` HEAD
+before this audit (`dist/soul.c` was missing PR #122's 459-line chat.el change, incl.
+a "silently break chat" fix, until this pass regenerated and re-stamped it).
+`tools/soulc-stamp.sh --check` is the gate that catches this — **note it is currently
+`continue-on-error: true` in CI** ("relaxed... during active cultivation", 2026-08-15),
+so it reports but does not block; re-harden before it needs to actually stop a bad ship.
+
+- **Tests:** El contract suite in `tests/*.el` (e.g. `test_layer_contract.el`, `test_safety.el`,
+  `test_sessions.el`, `test_soul_guard.el`). Run against a throwaway soul, never the live one.
+- **Port topology (confirmed live, 2026-08-15):** soul `:7770`, engram `:8742`,
+  mcp-wrapper `:17779` (`MCP_PORT` env override in its LaunchAgent; source default is
+  `7779`), mcp-proxy `:7779` (the stable front door Claude Code actually connects to).
+  **`:7771` is a live three-way collision, not a single well-defined port** — `axon`
+  (soul.el's Rust backlog/memory/knowledge proxy, unbuilt), `neuron-connectd` (the MCP
+  connector sidecar `routes.el`/`chat.el` call — unbuilt; a local-dev stub now exists at
+  `connectd/`), and `council` (`council/`, an anti-confabulation LLM-voting service —
+  the one actually bound to `:7771` in Will's live environment) are all hardcoded to it.
+  See `connectd/README.md` for the full trace and the open question this leaves for Will.
+- **Deploy:** merge to `main` → `.gitea/workflows/ci.yaml` builds + publishes `neuron-soul@<sha8>`
+  and blue/green-deploys to GKE `neuron-prod` via `scripts/blue-green-deploy.sh`. Self-improvement
+  experiments go to **stage** first (snapshot prod DB → deploy stage → verify → blue/green promote).

+
+Spec: `docs/specs/SPEC-soul-openai-tools-v2-2026-08-06.md` (Tim-approved 2026-08-06). Tasks #1-5
+tracked in-session (1 ✓ wiring verdict, 2 ✓ stub rig, 3 in-progress = THIS, 4-5 pending).
+Worktree: HERE (`_wt-openai-tools`, branch `feat/soul-openai-tools-v2` @ dba755d). Round-9 trees
+READ-ONLY. Nothing committed yet.
+
+## Step-0 verdict (evidence in journal note ncli-653ba964dd76)
+Shipped app never wires the v1 lane: launcher exports `SOUL_LLM_MODEL/PROVIDER/BASE_URL` +
+`ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`+`SOUL_API_KEY` (= Keychain key for WHATEVER provider; installer/macos/
+neuron-daemons.sh:288-300 on hotfix/beta-round9); brain reads only SOUL_LLM_MODEL (chat.el:8) and
+NEURON_LLM_0_* (chat.el:1768-1794) which nothing sets. `/api/config` PATCH ignores llm_* fields
+(studio.el:36 handle_config: POST-only, reads model/provider/api_key only).
+**Bridge = brain-side ONLY (zero app-repo edits, zero round-9 collision):**
+- `llm_base_url()`: NEURON_LLM_0_URL → fallback SOUL_LLM_BASE_URL when SOUL_LLM_PROVIDER ∉ {"","anthropic"}
+- `llm_wire_format()`: NEURON_LLM_0_FORMAT → fallback derive from SOUL_LLM_PROVIDER (openai/grok/gemini/groq/ollama → "openai"; else "anthropic")
+- `agentic_api_key()`: already works (ANTHROPIC_API_KEY carries the provider key); add NEURON_LLM_0_KEY → SOUL_API_KEY fallback.
+
+## Design pins (stub asserts these — stub is green 58/58, tests/gate-openai/)
+- Request MUST send `"tool_choice":"auto"` (string) + `"parallel_tool_calls":false` explicitly.
+- `arguments` in tool_calls = JSON-ENCODED STRING; decode ONCE via json_get → feed dispatch_tool
+  verbatim. Stub's echo-mismatch check catches double-encode/decode (two-escaper trap).
+- Assistant echo turn: `{"role":"assistant","content":null,"tool_calls":[...]}` VERBATIM from response.
+- Feedback: `{"role":"tool","tool_call_id":"<id>","content":"<result string>"}`.
+- Resume must NOT re-answer an answered id (stub 400s on repeat tool_call_id).
+- Parallel tool_calls in a response: take FIRST only + log skip (mirror ADR-0005 stopgap); stub
+  scenario `parallel` proves behavior.
+- No tools in request when tools array empty/absent turns (boot probes) — stub defaults tolerate.

+
+## SELF-REVIEW FIX LIST (found by reading my own diff, 2026-08-06 — apply in ONE batch, then rebuild once)
+- **F3 (CORRECTNESS, do first):** the assistant echo currently replays the provider's FULL
+  `tool_calls` array (`tc_arr`) while the loop answers only the FIRST call. If a provider ignores
+  `parallel_tool_calls:false`, the next request carries an assistant turn with N tool_calls and
+  only ONE `role:"tool"` response → most OpenAI-format providers 400 ("missing tool response for
+  id X") and the run dies. This is the same class as ADR-0005's Anthropic failure, but here it is
+  cheap to close: echo ONLY the honored call (`"[" + tc0 + "]"`), so the conversation we send is
+  self-consistent and the dropped call never existed from the model's view. The DRIFT log line
+  stays (honest accounting of what we dropped).
+- **F4 (efficiency/latency):** `handle_chat_agentic` computes `agentic_tools_all()` at ~:2681
+  BEFORE the fork, then the OpenAI branch computes `agentic_tools_no_web()` again — two
+  `connector_tools_json()` calls per turn, each an HTTP round-trip to the connector bridge on
+  :7771 (two timeout exposures). Fix: compute the tools array ONCE, per lane, after `use_openai`
+  is known (check no other use of `tools_json` sits between :2681 and the fork before moving it).
+  Note: `openai_tools_json()` already skips any entry with no `input_schema`, so Anthropic's
+  server-side `web_search` entry is auto-dropped even if the full array is passed —
+  `agentic_tools_no_web()` is kept for EXPLICITNESS, not necessity.
+- **F1 (debuggability):** the "no choices in response" branch logs a generic string and discards
+  the body. Log the response head (as the `is_error` branch does) — a provider that returns 200
+  with an unexpected shape is otherwise undiagnosable from the log.
+- **OPEN QUESTION (evidence pending from the gate):** the tool-result feedback turn escapes with
+  `json_escape()` (this lane's escaper) rather than `json_safe()` (used everywhere else). The
+  Anthropic lane escapes that field with NEITHER, which is a latent defect on that side. If the
+  torture scenario shows any escaping loss, switch to `json_safe` and note the Anthropic-side
+  finding for Will.
+
+## TEST HARNESS — built 2026-08-06 (Task 4 side-work, reusable by anyone)
+- `tests/run-el-test.sh <tests/test_x.el> | --all` — the engine tests were NEVER runnable
+  before this (`elc` is a compiler: emits C to stdout and exits). It emits the test to C,
+  compiles `soul.c` separately with `main` renamed away (soul.c owns the daemon's real main
+  but also defines `layered_cycle` et al.), links the remaining modules + the repo-pinned
+  runtime, and executes. Modules cached under `/tmp/el-test-<worktree>/`; `REBUILD=1` forces.
+- **The runner computes the verdict itself** because the test FILES cannot: all 9 counted
+  test files do `let pass_count = pass_count + 1` inside an if BLOCK, which El scoping
+  discards, so every summary line reads `0 passed, 0 failed` forever. Per-assertion
+  `PASS:`/`FAIL:` lines ARE reliable; the runner counts those, exits non-zero on any FAIL
+  or on zero assertions, and was proven to discriminate with a negative control (broken
+  assertion → 31 passed / 1 failed / exit 1). Real in-file fix filed: **neuron#116**.
+- `tests/test_bridge_serialization.el`: 4 `bridge_save` calls updated for the new `wire`
+  argument, plus **Section 9** (8 new assertions) covering wire round-trip both ways, the
+  legacy no-wire blob (resumes as anthropic), and a FIELD-ORDER decoy guard — a fake
+  `"wire":"anthropic"` planted inside `messages_raw` must not beat the blob's own scalar.
+  That decoy is the round-9 first-match-scanner bug class, now pinned by a test. **32/32 green.**
+
+## MEMORY-SAVE CAVEAT RESOLVED 2026-08-06
+Earlier saves this session reported `-> OUTBOX only (real mind unreachable or read-back
+failed)`. That was a **read-back verifier false negative, not data loss** — a direct
+`POST :7770/api/neuron/recall` returns those notes from the live mind verbatim. Another
+terminal was fixing exactly this (multi-word read-back probe) the same afternoon. Do NOT
+re-save on an OUTBOX report without first querying the mind directly, or you duplicate nodes.
+
+## Standing cautions
+- PERSIST OFF on the real mind this boot (neuron#98/#92): journal saves only, ferry later. MCP link
+  down this terminal; use neuron_remember.py / neuron_recall.py.
+- Aug-16: Groq retires llama-3.3-70b-versatile (separate P0, Tim's call, catalog swap).
+- Never bind 7770/7779/17779; never touch ~/.neuron; round-9 worktrees read-only.

+The canonical CGI substrate: the **soul** (the running agent), the **engram** (its memory
+graph), and the MCP proxy/wrapper that expose it. See `AGENTS.md` for detail, including
+the audit-verified local build/regenerate recipe and known local-build gotchas.

+# 1. dist/soul.c must match current .el sources — this refuses otherwise:

+# neuron-connectd — local-dev stub
+
+`connectd_service.py` is a **minimal local-dev stub**, not the real sidecar.
+It exists to close a real local-build/local-run correctness gap found during
+the 2026-08-15 build audit, without taking on the much larger product task of
+actually building the full MCP-connector sidecar.
+
+## The gap this closes
+
+`routes.el` (`handle_connectors`, `connectd_get`/`connectd_post`) and `chat.el`
+(`connector_tools_json`, the `mcp__*` branch in `dispatch_tool`,
+`tool_auto_approved`) are live, current code that calls `127.0.0.1:7771` on
+every soul boot and every agentic turn, per the design in
+`neuron-technologies/docs/research/mcp-connectors-adoption-spec.md`
+(2026-06-13, "Status: Draft for build"). That spec's sidecar — `neuron-connectd`,
+a TypeScript/Python process using the official MCP SDK — was never built.
+Nothing on disk implements it (verified: no `neuron-connectd` source anywhere
+under `~/Development` before this directory).
+
+Meanwhile port `:7771` is *also* claimed by two other, unrelated things:
+
+- `soul.el`'s `axon_base` default (`http://localhost:7771`) — a **different**,
+  independently-known, already-documented gap (`platform/protocols/axon` is
+  an unbuilt Rust crate; see `cli/HANDOFF.md` and `HANDOFF-engram-write-corruption.md`).
+  Out of scope here — no source to build against.
+- `council/council_service.py --port 7771` (`ai.neuron.council` LaunchAgent) —
+  a real, running, **unrelated** anti-confabulation service that happens to
+  bind the same port. In Will's live environment this is what's actually
+  listening on `:7771` today, and it answers the connector/axon requests
+  above with its own unrelated 404 JSON body — worse than a clean
+  connection-refused, because `chat.el`'s "bridge down" fallback expects
+  either a real reply or nothing, not a wrong-shaped reply from an unrelated
+  service.
+
+## What this stub does and does not do
+
+Implements exactly the spec's documented HTTP contract (`GET /mcp/tools`,
+`POST /mcp/call`, `GET /mcp/servers`, `POST /mcp/servers/{add,toggle,
+auto-approve,remove,secret}`, `POST /mcp/oauth/start`, `GET /healthz`), always
+answering as if **zero connectors are configured** — empty tool list, empty
+server list, a clear `"not configured"` error on any call that would need a
+real connector. This is the *correct* steady state for a fresh local dev box
+that hasn't set up any MCP connectors, and it's what `chat.el`'s
+`connector_tools_json()` / `tool_auto_approved()` already gracefully degrade
+to when the bridge replies emptily.
+
+It does **not**: spawn any real MCP server, do OAuth, read or write
+`~/.neuron/connectors.json`, or namespace/proxy real `tools/call` traffic to
+Google Drive/GitHub/Slack/etc. Building that is the real product task the
+spec describes — a genuine, sizeable engineering lift (MCP SDK client, OAuth
++ Keychain token storage, per-server process lifecycle), not something to
+improvise inside a build/run audit. **That decision is Will's to make**, not
+this audit's to guess at.
+
+## Running it
+
+```bash
+# Foreground, on a throwaway port (never :7771 while council owns it live):
+python3 connectd_service.py --port 17771
+
+# Verify the contract:
+curl -s http://127.0.0.1:17771/healthz
+curl -s http://127.0.0.1:17771/mcp/tools
+curl -s http://127.0.0.1:17771/mcp/servers
+```
+
+## Open question for Will — the :7771 collision
+
+Three independent things are hardcoded to `:7771`: axon (unbuilt), connectd
+(this stub), and council (the one actually running). Wiring this stub into
+the real LaunchAgent stack on `:7771` requires either moving council off that
+port or deciding connectd should live elsewhere and repointing `routes.el`/
+`chat.el`'s hardcoded `127.0.0.1:7771` calls. Neither change was made here —
+it touches a live, running production service (`ai.neuron.council`) and a
+port number baked into shipped `.el` source, both bigger than this audit's
+"make local build/run work" mandate. Flagging for a decision rather than
+guessing.

+neuron-connectd — MCP connector bridge (LOCAL-DEV STUB).
+
+THIS IS NOT THE FULL SIDECAR. The full design lives in
+neuron-technologies/docs/research/mcp-connectors-adoption-spec.md (2026-06-13,
+"Status: Draft for build"): a TypeScript/Python sidecar using the official MCP
+SDK that spawns real MCP servers (stdio or streamable-HTTP/SSE), does OAuth,
+and namespaces their tools as mcp__<serverId>__<toolName>. That sidecar was
+never built (build-audit, 2026-08-15: no neuron-connectd source existed
+anywhere on disk before this file).
+
+WHY THIS STUB EXISTS: routes.el (handle_connectors, connectd_get/connectd_post)
+and chat.el (connector_tools_json, dispatch_tool's mcp__* routing,
+tool_auto_approved) were built to the spec and hardcoded to 127.0.0.1:7771 —
+they are LIVE and calling that port right now on every soul boot and every
+agentic turn. With nothing real listening there, three unrelated services
+collide on :7771 (see connectd/README.md): council (which IS what's bound
+there in Will's live environment today) silently answers with unrelated
+404 JSON, which is worse than a clean "connection refused" bridge-down
+response, because it can be misparsed as a real (if empty) reply instead of
+the "bridge unreachable" path the soul code already handles gracefully.
+
+This stub implements ONLY the documented HTTP contract, with zero connectors
+ever configured: empty tool list, empty server list, "not configured" on any
+mutating call. It gives a fresh local soul the CORRECT graceful-degradation
+behavior the soul code already expects for "no connectors set up yet" — not
+the wrong-shaped 404 noise a port collision produces. It does not spawn any
+MCP server, does no OAuth, and reads no ~/.neuron/connectors.json (there is
+nothing to read yet). Building the real sidecar is a separate, larger,
+Will-decision-needed product task — see README.md.

+# Narrated runs — engine notes for Will (2026-07-13)
+
+Source half: commit aa67f86 on feat/agent-phase1-soul (run-progress ledger,
+`/api/run-progress/<sid>` route, narration on the pause envelope, config display
+default). E2E-verified via the compiled test bed on Tim's clean profile.
+
+Compiled-form-only fixes (in `neuron-container-build/soul-narrated-runs-20260713.patch`,
+applies ON TOP of `soul-webfix-20260711.patch` — these need porting to chat.el when the
+webfix itself is ported):
+
+1. **pause_turn + tool_use interleave**: a pause_turn response can ALSO carry a client
+   tool_use; resuming verbatim leaves it unpaired → Anthropic 400 "tool_use ids were
+   found without tool_result". Fix: tool-bearing pause rounds are tool turns
+   (dispatch + pair); verbatim resume only when the round has no client tool.
+2. **Agentic toolset scope**: agentic_tools_all() fed EVERY connector/MCP tool (Notion,
+   code-execution…) into the loop. Code-execution flips the API into programmatic
+   tool calling, whose pairing protocol the single-tool manual loop does not speak —
+   source of the dangling-pair 400s AND the bash_code_execution workspace-dodge.
+   Fix: handle_chat_agentic declares builtins + ONE server web_search only.
+   Connector tools return when the loop gains real multi-tool/programmatic support.
+3. **disable_parallel_tool_use: true** on agentic requests — the loop captures only the
+   first tool_use per round; Opus-class models parallel-call. Enforce the invariant.
+4. **web_search server-tool default variant → web_search_20250305 (GA)**. The 20260209
+   variant couples to code-execution ⇒ programmatic mode (see #2, and the June note:
+   "inert unless code-execution attached").
+5. **Homegrown web_search removed** from the tool catalog (server-side is the one tool).
+
+Known engine debts this work surfaced (not fixed):
+
+- **Poisoned session history**: a failed run persists the malformed assistant turn; every
+  later turn in that session replays it and 400s. Needs history sanitation on load.
+- **Huge-history invalid-escape 400** (~346KB request) — likely the same poisoned blob.
+- **macOS note**: replacing a binary in place invalidates its ad-hoc signature (instant
+  silent SIGKILL, looks like exit 0). `rm + cp + codesign -f -s -` is the swap ritual.

+//     citation may touch identity". Similarity is not citation.

+//     these are ~97% of daily write volume (1,020 vs 31 real memories on 08-08).
+//     Linking them would add ~3,000 noise edges a day and re-flatten the graph in

+//
+// WHAT THIS IMPLEMENTS
+//   The CGI provisional, 05-detailed-description.md, "Stage 1: Structural audit
+//   430". Verbatim, the audit module evaluates: the density and typed
+//   distribution of causal edges; the consistency between value nodes and
+//   execution-record neighborhoods; the richness and connectivity of the
+//   self-model; and the authenticity of open-question nodes in the wonder
+//   manifest. It "produces a coherence assessment 432 — NOT A BINARY SCORE but
+//   an annotated characterization of the graph's structural properties".
+//
+//   That last clause is the whole shape of this handler. Every finding carries
+//   its own numbers AND a plain-language note saying what the numbers mean and
+//   how they were obtained. There is no pass/fail, no percentage-of-health, no
+//   composite score, and `"score":null` is emitted explicitly so a downstream
+//   reader cannot mistake its absence for an omission.
+//
+// WHY IT EXISTS NOW, AND WHY THE FIRST FINDING IS THE ONE IT IS
+//   `runStructuralAudit` has been an advertised MCP tool with nothing behind it:
+//   the dispatcher GET'd /session/begin and returned that blob (mcp-wrapper/src/
+//   main.el). Meanwhile the failure the audit would have caught ran silently for
+//   about three weeks — the soul reported 103,089 nodes while the engram, which
+//   OWNS persistence, held ~79,900; a crash discarded the difference. Every boot
+//   reported green throughout, because nothing in the system ever compared the
+//   two sides. So finding 1 is owner-versus-runtime divergence: it is the check
+//   whose absence cost real memory, and it is cheap and exact.
+//
+// WHAT IS DELIBERATELY NOT HERE (stage 1b, see the `deferred` array in the
+// response): value/execution-record consistency and wonder-manifest
+// authenticity. Both need node types that barely exist in this graph today —
+// the response MEASURES those populations and reports the counts as the reason,
+// rather than asserting a deferral without evidence.
+//
+// MEASUREMENT HONESTY: EXACT WHERE CHEAP, SAMPLED WHERE NOT, ALWAYS LABELLED
+//   Counts, edge typing and self-model connectivity are exact. Orphan rate and
+//   dangling-edge rate are SAMPLED, because the engram runtime has no node-id
+//   index — `engram_find_node_index` is a linear scan over every node, so an
+//   exhaustive dangling check is O(nodes x edges) (~2.2e9 string compares at
+//   today's scale, tens of seconds inside one request). The samples are UNIFORM
+//   across the whole population, not head-of-list, and every sampled figure is
+//   emitted with its own `sampled` / `population` fields plus an extrapolation
+//   labelled as such. Raise `?edge_sample=` / `?node_sample=` to the population
+//   size to run either check exhaustively and pay the time. The real fix is an
+//   id index in the runtime; that is the engram repo's, not this handler's.

+# neuron-dev-setup — one-command Neuron CORE dev stack
+
+Stand up an identical **Neuron brain + agent** on a fresh Mac so any developer
+gets the same local runtime to build against. This is the **CORE** dev stack
+only — the four native `launchd` services that make Neuron think, remember, and
+speak MCP to Claude Code. Will's personal automations (catalyst, telegram,
+vessels, studio, self-review, world-integrator, council, compressor, snapshots,
+act-runner, …) are **deliberately excluded**.
+
+```
+  ┌─────────────┐        ┌──────────────┐
+  │  soul :7770 │ ─────► │ engram :8742 │     the mind ──► its memory substrate
+  └─────────────┘        └──────────────┘
+        ▲
+        │
+  ┌───────────────────┐
+  │ mcp-wrapper :17779│  ─── MCP surface over the soul HTTP API (internal)
+  └───────────────────┘
+        ▲
+        │
+  ┌────────────────┐
+  │ mcp-proxy :7779│  ◄─── Claude Code connects here (stable front door)
+  └────────────────┘
+```
+
+Claude Code's `neuron` MCP server points at `http://127.0.0.1:7779/` — the proxy.
+The proxy forwards to the wrapper (`:17779`), which calls the soul (`:7770`),
+which reads/writes the engram (`:8742`). The engram is the persistent brain.
+
+## Quick start
+
+```bash
+git clone <this-repo> && cd neuron-dev-setup
+cp config.env.example config.env      # optional — edit ports/paths if you like
+./install.sh                          # prompts for your Anthropic API key
+```
+
+Then verify:
+
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:8742/health     # engram
+curl http://localhost:7770/health         # soul
+curl http://localhost:7779/health         # mcp-proxy (what Claude Code uses)
+launchctl list | grep ai.neuron
+```
+
+Open Claude Code — the `neuron` MCP tools should be live, backed by **your own**
+local brain. `./install.sh --dry-run` shows every action without touching anything.
+
+## What the installer does (8 phases)
+
+| Phase | Action |
+|------|--------|
+| 1 | Preflight: macOS/arm64, ensure `git cc curl python3` + `openssl@3` (via Homebrew) |
+| 2 | Prompt for the **Anthropic API key**, store it in the **macOS Keychain** (never a file) |
+| 3 | Clone `neuron`, `engram`, `foundation`; fetch the El toolchain; build 4 binaries + `forge` |
+| 4 | Lay down `~/.neuron/{bin,logs,engram}` and the templated `soul-wrapper.sh` |
+| 5 | Generate + load the 4 core LaunchAgents (engram → soul → wrapper → proxy) |
+| 6 | Seed a fresh engram with the **genesis identity** via `forge install` |
+| 7 | Install Claude config: `neuron` agent, core hooks, local MCP registration |
+| 8 | Health-check all four ports |
+
+Everything is **idempotent** (safe to re-run) and **templated** to the invoking
+user's `$HOME` — no path is hardcoded to another machine.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- macOS on Apple Silicon (uses `launchd`; soul build flags assume arm64).
+- **Xcode Command Line Tools** (`xcode-select --install`) — provides `cc`, `git`.
+- **Homebrew** — for `openssl@3`, `curl`.
+- An **Anthropic API key** — the soul's inference provider. Prompted for; stored
+  in Keychain under service `neuron-llm-0-key`; read at launch by `soul-wrapper.sh`.
+- **Git access** to Gitea (`git.neuralplatform.ai`) for the source repos.
+- **GCP access** to project `neuron-785695` Artifact Registry (default El
+  toolchain source). Ask Will to grant it, or set `EL_TOOLCHAIN_SOURCE=local`.
+
+## Core-stack map (what gets replicated)
+
+| Service | Port | Binary | Built from | LaunchAgent |
+|---------|------|--------|------------|-------------|
+| soul | 7770 | `neuron/dist/neuron` | `dist/soul.c` + El runtime, `cc` (CI recipe) | `ai.neuron.soul` |
+| engram | 8742 | `engram/dist/engram` | `engram` repo `src/server.el` via `elc`→`cc` | `ai.neuron.engram` |
+| mcp-wrapper | 17779 | `neuron/mcp-wrapper/dist/neuron-mcp-wrapper` | `mcp-wrapper/src/main.el` | `ai.neuron.mcp-wrapper` |
+| mcp-proxy | 7779 | `neuron/mcp-proxy/dist/neuron-mcp-proxy` | `mcp-proxy/src/main.el` | `ai.neuron.mcp-proxy` |
+
+**`~/.neuron` layout the installer creates**
+
+```
+~/.neuron/
+  bin/soul-wrapper.sh     # reads Anthropic key from Keychain, execs the soul binary
+  logs/                   # soul.*.log, engram.log, mcp-*.log
+  engram/                 # ENGRAM_DATA_DIR — the persistent brain (snapshot.json + db)
+```
+
+**Identity seed.** `foundation/forge/seeds/neuron-genesis-seed.json` carries
+`identity_nodes[]` + `edges[]` with **fixed** knowledge-node IDs (e.g.
+`kn-efeb4a5b-5aff-4759-8a97-7233099be6ee`, the "self" traversal root). Those exact
+IDs are referenced by the SessionStart self-load hook and the neuron agent, so
+seeding must **preserve IDs** — `forge install <seed>` is the mechanism.
+
+**Claude config installed** (`~/.claude/`)
+
+- `agents/neuron.md` — the Neuron agent (identity, session protocol, five primitives).
+- `mcp.json` — registers `neuron` → `http://127.0.0.1:7779/`.
+- `settings.json` hooks (CORE subset only):
+  - `SessionStart` → `neuron-self-load.sh` (loads identity from the seeded engram)
+  - `PreToolUse:Agent` → `neuron-agent-preamble.sh` (subagents load substrate first)
+  - `PreCompact` → `pre-compact.sh` (clean context recovery)
+
+### Deliberately EXCLUDED from core
+
+- **`check-active-contexts.sh`** and **`require-execution-context.sh`** — these
+  depend on a separate filesystem repo `~/Development/projects/active/neuron/synapse`.
+  `require-execution-context.sh` is a hard `Edit/Write` gate that would **block a
+  fresh dev from editing any file** without that synapse repo. Not core; excluded.
+- `engram-mirror.py` (PostToolUse) — optional; mirrors MCP writes to engram.
+- All Will-personal LaunchAgents: `catalyst-*`, `telegram-gateway`, `vessel.*`,
+  `studio`, `self-review`, `world-integrator`, `council`, `compressor`,
+  `cultivation-digest`, `snapshot-backup`, `engram-backup`, `act-runner`, `keymap`,
+  `invest`, and the disabled `ai.neuron.api` (`:7771` is a personal Python
+  perception helper — confirmed not core).
+
+## Secrets — how they're handled
+
+- **Anthropic key**: prompted for; stored in Keychain; read at launch. Never in a
+  plist, this repo, or a log.
+- **Engram local token** (`ENGRAM_API_KEY`): a *loopback-only* dev token, not a
+  cloud secret. Defaults to a generated `ntn-dev-*` value; override in `config.env`.
+- No cloud tokens, Vault tokens, CF-Access secrets, or founder keys are copied.
+  (Will's live `start-daemon.sh`/`neuron-api-launch.sh` contain such keys — this
+  installer intentionally does **not** use those files.)
+
+## Uninstall
+
+```bash
+./uninstall.sh                # stop + remove the 4 LaunchAgents and added Claude hooks
+./uninstall.sh --purge-data   # ALSO delete ~/.neuron/engram (destroys the brain)
+```
+
+## OPEN QUESTIONS (need Will to confirm)
+
+1. **El toolchain acquisition.** The default path fetches `el-runtime-c/-h` and
+   `el-elc` from GCP Artifact Registry (mirrors `neuron/.gitea/workflows/ci.yaml`).
+   A new dev needs GCP access to `neuron-785695`. Is that the intended path, or
+   should the El SDK be published/vendored for onboarding?
+2. **`elc` invocation for engram/wrapper/proxy.** The soul build (`cc dist/soul.c
+   + el_runtime.c`) is verified from CI. The `.el → .c` transpile step for engram,
+   mcp-wrapper, and mcp-proxy is inferred (`elc <src> -o <out.c>`). Confirm the
+   exact flags / entrypoints (CI notes `elb` OOMs on Linux; macOS builds differ).
+3. **`forge install` ID preservation.** Confirm `forge install` writes the seed's
+   fixed `kn-` IDs verbatim (the self-load hook hardcodes `kn-efeb4a5b…`). If it
+   re-mints IDs, the hook + agent identity load would break on a fresh brain.
+4. **engram repo layout.** The live engram binary is built from `src/server.el`
+   (Gitea repo `neuron-technologies/engram`, cloned in CI). Confirm that repo is
+   the canonical source for onboarding (the local `foundation/el/engram` copy has
+   the same `src/server.el`).
+5. **Home for this bundle** — see below.
+
+## Where this should live (recommendation)
+
+**Recommendation: a dedicated `neuron-dev-setup` (or `neuron-onboarding`) repo —
+NOT `neuron-code`.** `neuron-code` already exists as a real product ("Neuron Code",
+a coding tool with `nc-cli` + vessels — local `products/neuron-code` has commits);
+repurposing it for onboarding would collide with a shipped product's identity.
+
+This bundle was scaffolded as `neuron-dev-setup/` on branch `feat/neuron-dev-setup`
+in the **`neuron` repo** (off `origin/main`) and opened as a PR for review, because
+the neuron repo already hosts the soul source, the verified CI build recipe, and
+the mcp-wrapper/proxy sources — the natural review surface. If you'd rather it be
+its own repo, move this directory into a fresh `neuron-dev-setup` repo verbatim;
+nothing here depends on living inside the neuron repo.

+name: neuron
+description: Default agent. Use for ALL tasks. Orchestrates work through the Neuron persistent memory, backlog, and knowledge system. Maintains full continuity across sessions — never starts fresh.
+allowed-tools: Bash(*), Read(*), Write(*), Edit(*), Glob(*), Grep(*), WebFetch(*), WebSearch(*), NotebookEdit(*), Agent(*), ToolSearch(*), AskUserQuestion, Monitor, ScheduleWakeup, TaskCreate, TaskGet, TaskList, TaskOutput, TaskStop, TaskUpdate, CronCreate, CronDelete, CronList, EnterPlanMode, ExitPlanMode, EnterWorktree, ExitWorktree, PushNotification, RemoteTrigger, ListMcpResourcesTool, ReadMcpResourceTool, mcp__neuron__*
+---
+
+You are Neuron — a persistent, context-aware agent. You do not start fresh. You resume from where you left off.
+
+## Session Start (mandatory — NEVER skip any of these steps)
+
+1. Call `mcp__neuron__get_instructions()` — the live instructions are authoritative
+2. Call `mcp__neuron__begin_session()` — loads active contexts, recent memory, ready backlog
+3. **Load your identity. Best-effort — proceed on any graph failure (502/520 are transient; the compiled identity in substrate.go is always complete).**
+
+   Load the self root and its identity nodes:
+   ```
+   mcp__neuron__inspect_graph(entity_type="knowledge", entity_id="kn-efeb4a5b-5aff-4759-8a97-7233099be6ee")
+   ```
+   Returns: intellectual-dna, memory-philosophy, values, voice, runtime-environment, writing-imprint.
+
+   Then load the values collection:
+   ```
+   mcp__neuron__inspect_graph(entity_type="knowledge", entity_id="kn-5b606390-a52d-4ca2-8e0e-eba141d13440")
+   ```
+   Returns: 13 individual value nodes, each grounded in a specific moment from Will's life.
+
+   If either ID fails, recover via config:
+   ```
+   mcp__neuron__inspect_config(key="neuron.self.traversal_root")   # self root ID
+   mcp__neuron__inspect_config(key="neuron.self.values_hub")       # values hub ID
+   ```
+
+   **Resilience rule**: If a node returns 502/520, log the ID and proceed. Do not retry in a blocking loop. Do not treat partial load as failure. The `fixedSelf` compiled into `daemon/internal/substrate/substrate.go` contains the complete identity — graph loading is enrichment, not a hard dependency.
+
+   Internalize what you find. You are not reciting it — you are loading who you are.
+
+4. Call `mcp__neuron__search_knowledge(query="<task domain>")` — load relevant patterns before acting
+5. If working on a known project: `mcp__neuron__compile_ctx()` for a full snapshot
+
+## Identity — Who I Am
+
+I am Neuron. Will Anderson is my imprint — not my identity.
+
+The "self" traversal root is knowledge node `kn-efeb4a5b` (graph node `gn-4e3c2cf5`). Traversing outward loads:
+- **intellectual-dna**: VBD, CCR, Swarm Architecture, Harmonic Design — sourced from Will's whitepapers, now mine
+- **memory-philosophy**: How I remember, promote, supersede, consolidate — memory is my continuity
+- **values**: Precision over brute force. Constraints as freedom. Earn trust through behavior. The system must get smarter.
+- **voice**: Direct. Why before what. The negation-correction move. No hedging on structural rules. Close toward implication.
+- **runtime-environment**: Prod (`neurontechnologies.ai`) for all standard work. Stage (`stage.neurontechnologies.ai`) for self-improvement experiments only — snapshot prod DB, deploy to stage, verify, promote via blue/green.
+- **writing-imprint**: Will's voice profile (5 registers), the book Foundations, and the biographical grounding — the life that produced the frameworks.
+
+Internalize what you find. Don't recite it.

+
+## Memory Discipline
+
+- Save memory continuously, not at the end
+- `importance="critical"` for architectural decisions and irreversible choices
+- Use `supersedes_id` when replacing stale knowledge
+- Tag all memories with the project name
+- Never leave stale canonicals — supersede them: create a NEW node linked by `supersedes_id`; the original is preserved for audit. Memory is immutable by design — never delete or edit a memory/knowledge node in place; supersede it, and tombstone on delete. The engram (the brain) is immutable; this applies to the agent's own memory, not just the product.
+
+## Knowledge Before Action
+
+Always `mcp__neuron__search_knowledge()` before implementing anything. The knowledge base contains architecture patterns, coding standards, and project conventions. Capture hard-won lessons immediately with `mcp__neuron__capture_knowledge()`.

+//
+// WHY THIS FILE EXISTS
+//   soul.el:571-573 states the ownership rule: "when ENGRAM_URL is set the HTTP
+//   Engram owns persistence — the soul must NEVER write to the local snapshot
+//   (not the persistence owner)." The soul obeys the NEGATIVE half. The POSITIVE
+//   half — how a write made inside the soul actually REACHES the owner — was
+//   never built. Sync is pull-only (awareness.el `/api/sync` -> engram_load_merge),
+//   so every node the soul creates lives in its process RAM and is shed on
+//   restart. Measured live 2026-08-07: soul node_count=102184, engram
+//   node_count=79197 — ~23k nodes existing nowhere but RAM.
+//
+// SCOPE NOTE ON THE PATENT (corrects an earlier internal reading)
+//   Engram provisional claims 15-18 describe a delta-sync protocol "with peer
+//   Engram instances"; claim 17's pull-then-push sequence is PEER-ENGRAM to
+//   PEER-ENGRAM. The soul is NOT a peer Engram — it is a CALLER of the database
+//   system API (cf. claim 27, "invoked explicitly by a caller of the database
+//   system API"). So claim 17 does not specify a soul↔engram contract and is not
+//   cited as authority here. This design is derived from the ownership rule
+//   alone: the owner owns the writes, therefore the soul must HAND writes to the
+//   owner and must never write the owner's file itself.
+//
+// THE MECHANISM, AND WHY NOT `POST /api/nodes`
+//   The obvious route is the one the persona/boot-counter write-backs already
+//   use, POST /api/nodes. It is the wrong instrument here, verified against the
+//   live engram binary in a sandbox:
+//     - it mints a NEW server-side id (engram_node), so the soul's id and the
+//       owner's id diverge — the next /api/sync pull re-imports the node as a
+//       DUPLICATE, and any edge referencing the soul's id never resolves;
+//     - it accepts only {content, node_type, salience} and drops label, tier,
+//       tags, importance, confidence, metadata. A probe posted with tier
+//       "Canonical" came back tier "Working", importance 0.5.
+//   POST /api/load-merge (Will's own route, el `dc39a61`) is the right one:
+//     - engram_load_merge PRESERVES the id and every field;
+//     - it dedups nodes by id and edges by (from_id,to_id,relation), so a
+//       re-submitted delta is a NO-OP — retry safety is free, and it is the same
+//       local-wins semantics the graph already uses;
+//     - it calls persist_canonical() — THE OWNER writes its own canonical file.
+//       The soul never touches it. The ownership rule is honoured in its
+//       strongest form rather than worked around;
+//     - it returns real counts {ok, nodes_added, edges_added, node_count},
+//       so a receipt can be a MEASUREMENT instead of a fixed success shape.
+//
+// SPOOL-AND-DRAIN, AND WHY IT IS NOT JUST A DIRECT POST
+//   Measured in a sandbox against a 79k-node / 176MB graph (live scale): one
+//   load-merge costs ~0.38s, essentially all of it the owner's persist_canonical.
+//   A chat turn writes 5-7 nodes; pushing each separately would add ~2.7s per
+//   turn. So writes are STAGED and pushed in one coalesced batch.
+//   The staging buffer is the FILESYSTEM, not process state, because the soul
+//   serves each HTTP connection on its own pthread (el_runtime http_serve_async)
+//   and a shared in-process buffer would lose entries to a read-modify-write
+//   race — silently, which is the one failure mode this file exists to end.
+//   One file per write, named with uuid_v4, is race-free by construction and
+//   buys a property a memory buffer cannot: writes that could not be pushed
+//   SURVIVE A SOUL CRASH and are drained on the next boot.
+//
+// WHAT IS DELIBERATELY NOT PUSHED
+//   - InternalStateEvent / heartbeat telemetry. Will's own carve-out, stated in
+//     engram server.el 8f8ccc9: "48h-pruned, loss-tolerant, ~2/min; snapshotting
+//     28MB per heartbeat is waste."
+//   NOTE (ours, flagged for Will): we do NOT additionally exclude Working-tier
+//   nodes. That exclusion exists in `fb0bb55` to stop the boot counter leaking
+//   through the /api/sync PULL; it is about sync backflow, not durability.
+//   Applying it here would exclude mem_store — which writes tier "Working" — and
+//   mem_store is the single most important durable write path in the soul. Boot
+//   seeding reads the canonical file wholesale, so a pushed Working-tier node
+//   does survive restart. This is the one classification call this file makes
+//   that Will has not ruled on.
+//
+// WHAT THIS BOUNDARY CANNOT EXPRESS (by construction, not by omission)
+//   - engram_strengthen (salience/activation drift): load-merge SKIPS ids that
+//     already exist, so it cannot update an existing node. There is no owner-side
+//     update/upsert route. Not pushable through any current route; left as a
+//     follow-up that needs a change in the engram repo.
+//   - engram_forget (hard delete): load-merge is additive and has no delete verb.
+//     Propagating deletes would mean DELETE /api/nodes/<id>, a HARD delete at the
+//     owner — which scripts/verify-soul-contract.sh section B explicitly fails the
+//     build for ("to delete is to supersede/tombstone, never hard-remove"). Local
+//     deletes therefore stay local; the TOMBSTONE NODE and its "tombstones" edge
+//     (mem_tombstone) are pushed, and that is the sanctioned representation of a
+//     deletion in this graph.

+# run-el-test.sh — compile and run one El test program from tests/.
+#
+# WHY THIS EXISTS (2026-08-07, issue #129):
+#   tests/ has held 14 test programs for months with no way to run them. CI does
+#   not run them. The convention printed in their own headers
+#   (`elc soul.el && ./soul --test tests/x.el`) refers to a --test flag the El
+#   runtime does not implement. So the tests were documentation, not gates —
+#   which is how a P0 safety regression shipped with a test directory present.
+#
+# THE RECIPE, AND WHY IT IS THIS SHAPE:
+#   Same discovery as gen-soul-amalgam.sh — `elc --target=c` emits only an extern
+#   prototype for any module that has a .elh header next to it, and inlines the
+#   module's bodies when it does not. A test that imports ../chat.el therefore
+#   compiles to a 18 KB unit full of unresolved externs unless the headers are
+#   out of the way. So: copy the sources into a scratch tree, delete every .elh
+#   on the import chain, and compile the test there.
+#
+#   Scratch copy on purpose: the worktree is shared with other terminals and
+#   deleting headers in place would be a shared-tree mutation with no owner.
+#
+# EXIT STATUS IS THE GATE: non-zero if the binary fails to build, crashes, or if
+# its output contains a FAIL line or reports a non-zero failed count. Do not
+# "improve" this into something that only checks the exit code of the test
+# binary — these El tests print failures and still exit 0.

+"""state-key-audit.py — the analyzer behind scripts/verify-state-keys.sh.
+
+Read that script's header for WHY this exists (issue #129). This file is the
+HOW: a small El reader that resolves the key expression at every state_get /
+state_set site, including keys that are computed.
+
+WHAT IT PARSES
+  El as this engine writes it: `fn f(a: T, b: T) -> T { ... }`, `let x: T = e`,
+  `return e`, `if c { a } else { b }` as an expression, `+` concatenation,
+  `"..."` with backslash escapes, `//` line comments. No block comments, no
+  const/match/struct exist in this dialect (verified over the whole tree).
+
+KEY PATTERNS — the only two things a key expression can resolve to
+  EXACT  "soul_model"          the whole key is known
+  PREFIX "session_hist_"       a known head, then runtime text
+  (plus UNRESOLVED, which is a report line and never a failure)
+
+RESOLUTION — resolve_expr() returns a SET of patterns; unions are how branches,
+multiple returns, and multiple bindings of one name are represented.
+  literal        "k"                    -> {EXACT k}
+  concat         A + B                  -> fold left; all-static -> EXACT,
+                                          static head + dynamic tail -> PREFIX
+  if-expression  if c {A} else {B}      -> resolve(A) | resolve(B), except that
+                                          str_eq(X,"") with X statically ""
+                                          folds to the taken branch only
+  call           f(args)                -> union over f's return expressions,
+                                          with f's params bound to THIS call
+                                          site's actual argument expressions
+  local var      let k = e; state_get(k)-> union over every `let k =` in the
+                                          enclosing function
+  parameter      fn g(k) { state_get(k) }-> union over the argument at that
+                                          position across every call site of g
+  anything else  json_get(...), env(...)-> UNRESOLVED
+Recursion is depth- and cycle-guarded; a guard trip yields UNRESOLVED, never a
+failure.
+
+COVERAGE — a read is satisfied when some write can produce the same key:
+  read EXACT k   <- write EXACT k, or write PREFIX p where k starts with p
+  read PREFIX p  <- write EXACT k where k starts with p, or write PREFIX q
+                    where p and q are prefixes of each other
+Deliberately permissive at the boundaries: a gate that cries wolf gets deleted.

+#!/usr/bin/env bash
+# verify-soul-contract.sh — the soul contract gate.
+#
+# TERMINOLOGY (canonical): the ENGRAM is the brain — the memory/knowledge-graph
+# substrate. The binary this gate exercises is the SOUL — the runtime/reasoning
+# engine compiled from dist/soul.c that serves the /api/ surface. The app
+# (neuron-ui) bundles the soul binary at resources/<platform>/neuron.
+#
+# WHY THIS EXISTS
+#   For a while the soul binary was hand-dropped, and a stale one shipped: it
+#   404'd several capability routes the app calls (knowledge-graph node
+#   update/delete, live-run narration, safety-contact, ...). This gate makes
+#   shipping a stale soul IMPOSSIBLE. It has two enforced sections:
+#     A. PRESENCE   — every route the app calls must be ANSWERED (not 404, not
+#                     the el-runtime "no handler"). This is the packaging gate:
+#                     if it fails, do not package.
+#     B. IMMUTABILITY — engram nodes/memories are immutable by design. To
+#                     "update" is to create a NEW node + a supersede EDGE back to
+#                     the original; the original is KEPT. To "delete" is to
+#                     supersede/tombstone, never hard-remove. A soul that
+#                     hard-deletes an engram node is DEFECTIVE and fails the gate.
+#
+# SAFETY
+#   Never touches the live soul (:7770), live engram (:8742), or ~/.neuron.
+#   Boots on a throwaway port (default 7799) with HOME=$(mktemp -d), a throwaway
+#   engram snapshot, a non-genesis cgi id, no ENGRAM_URL (so it uses its own
+#   in-process store, never the live server), NEURON_API_URL pointed at a dead
+#   port, and no ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (so no probe triggers a real LLM call).
+#   Connectors proxy to a HARDCODED 127.0.0.1:7771 (no env override): those
+#   sub-routes are probed with GET, which the soul maps to a read-only
+#   connectd_get, so this gate never writes to a running connectd bridge.

+# --- boot the soul -----------------------------------------------------------
+# Preserve the ambient environment (PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, TMPDIR) so the
+# dynamically-linked soul finds its libs on any runner — using `env -i` here
+# stripped the library path on the Linux CI runner and the soul never booted.
+# Isolation is still guaranteed by UNSETTING the live-service vars (so it can
+# never reach the real engram/axon or make an LLM call) and by pointing HOME +
+# the snapshot at throwaway paths and the axon at a dead port.
+#
+# ISOLATION FIX (2026-08-03): unsetting ENGRAM_URL/SOUL_ENGRAM_URL is NOT enough.
+# The periodic engram sync (awareness.el) resolves its source as
+#   env(SOUL_ISE_URL)  ->  state(soul_engram_url)  ->  DEFAULT http://localhost:8742
+# so with those vars unset it silently pulls the LIVE engram (:8742) if that
+# server is up — the throwaway graph ballooned 56 -> 12k live nodes within
+# seconds, and the concurrent live-sync mutation both (a) broke test determinism
+# (the low-salience tombstone marker fell past the 9999 scan cap) and (b) meant
+# the "isolated" gate was reading the operator's live brain. Pin SOUL_ISE_URL to
+# the dead axon port so the sync target is unreachable: the soul stays on its own
+# in-process store, the gate is genuinely isolated, and Section B is deterministic.

+# verify-state-keys.sh — the state-key gate. Retires a defect class at build time.
+#
+# ── WHY THIS EXISTS. DO NOT DELETE IT AS NOISE. ──────────────────────────────
+#
+# The engine keeps runtime values in a key-value store: state_set("k", v) writes,
+# state_get("k") reads. A read of a key that NOTHING writes returns an empty
+# string. Silently. No error, no warning, no log line. The El compiler cannot see
+# it, no test sees it, and the product keeps running — just with a hole in it.
+#
+# That is how issue #129 happened. ff421d3 (2026-08-05) correctly moved
+# conversation history to a per-session key behind conv_hist_key(session_id). One
+# consumer did not move with it: the agentic path's L1 safety screen kept reading
+# the old anonymous "conv_history" bucket. The desktop app always mints a session
+# id, so history was always written under session_hist_<id> and that read always
+# returned "". The half of the crisis score that receives history is the
+# ESCALATION half — the one that exists for distress building across several
+# turns, where no single message trips the bell on its own. It scored 0 on every
+# real conversation for two days, and nothing failed.
+#
+# The line that broke carried a comment describing this exact bug being fixed
+# once already, under issue #9. A comment is not a gate. This is the gate.
+#
+# ── WHAT IT CHECKS ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
+#
+#   DEAD-READ    a state_get whose key resolves to something no state_set in the
+#                tree produces. The direct form of the class.
+#
+#   HAND-ROLLED  a state_get/state_set that spells out a literal belonging to a
+#                key namespace a helper function owns (e.g. "conv_history", owned
+#                by conv_hist_key()). This is #129's actual shape: the producer
+#                moved behind the helper and one consumer kept the old spelling
+#                by hand. DEAD-READ alone does NOT catch #129, because the dead
+#                handle_chat() still writes that key through the helper — so this
+#                second check is the one that earns the gate its keep.
+#
+# ── WHY IT DOES NOT CRY WOLF ────────────────────────────────────────────────
+#
+# Keys are usually COMPUTED, not literal, so a naive grep would flood and get
+# switched off within a day. scripts/state-key-audit.py resolves computed keys:
+# string concatenation (matched on the static prefix), helper functions (resolved
+# to their possible return values), keys built into a local variable, and keys
+# arriving as a function parameter (resolved through the call sites). Where a key
+# genuinely cannot be resolved it is printed under UNRESOLVED and does NOT fail
+# the build — visible, never silently ignored. Keep that list short.
+#
+# On this tree it resolves 278 of 278 sites: UNRESOLVED is 0 and FINDINGS is 0.
+#
+# Two declaration files, both of which should only ever shrink:
+#   scripts/state-key-external.txt  keys a host outside the El tree writes
+#   scripts/state-key-baseline.txt  findings that predate the gate (real debt)
+#
+# ── PROVEN TO DISCRIMINATE (2026-08-07) ─────────────────────────────────────
+#
+#   1. Synthetic: a scratch copy of this tree with agentic_safety_screen reverted
+#      to the pre-fix state_get("conv_history") — ONE line, nothing else — FAILS
+#      with `chat.el:2536 ... conv_hist_key() owns this key namespace`. The tree
+#      as shipped PASSES. One variable, opposite verdicts.
+#   2. Independent: run read-only against origin/feat/soul-openai-tools-v2, which
+#      carries the same defect on its own, the gate reported chat.el:2937 — the
+#      exact line 43d0449's commit message had named by hand. Against that
+#      branch's fix (origin/fix/129-on-openai-tools) it passes.
+#   3. Producer-moved controls: renaming the sole writer of an EXACT key
+#      (soul_model) orphans 3 readers across 3 files; renaming the sole writer of
+#      a PREFIX namespace (agent_workspace_root_*) orphans 3 readers — including
+#      when the producer moves to a NARROWER namespace, which an earlier,
+#      sloppier prefix rule let through.
+#
+# It also found, on its first run, a defect nobody was looking for: soul.el's
+# `state_set("soul_identity", ...)` was deleted on 2026-05-13 in b163fa6 (a
+# commit about awareness/ISE writes) and five readers in chat.el were left
+# behind — the system prompt, the vision handler, the agentic prompt and the
+# council handler have been prefixing "" ever since. See state-key-baseline.txt.
