//
// WHY THIS EXISTS (2026-08-07 self-review, measured on the live system).
// Yesterday's eligibility-trace fix made Hebbian learning work: hebb_max
// 0.000799 -> 0.4725, and 1,198 hebbian-associate edges formed in 23h48m.
// A census this morning found all 1,198 of them living in this process's RAM
// and nowhere else:
//
// soul daemon in-process graph: 42,426 edges, 1,198 hebbian
// engram server (:8742, durable): 41,213 edges, 49 hebbian
//
// The soul pulls from the server every 10 min (GET /api/sync) and never
// pushes. It also cannot save its own snapshot: soul.el only sets
// soul_snapshot_path inside `if is_genesis && safe_to_seed`, and safe_to_seed
// is unconditionally false when ENGRAM_URL is set which it is, in the
// launchd plist because the HTTP server owns persistence and a soul writing
// snapshot.json would clobber it. That guard is right. So mem_save() below has
// literally never run, and this daemon (the ONLY process doing idle cognition,
// therefore where essentially all co-activation happens) was throwing away
// every association it learned, every restart, silently.
//
// The fix is not to let the soul write the file. It is to make consolidation a
// message: hand each newly-formed edge to the durable store over the API the
// server already exposes. Fast volatile store learns online; slow durable store
// keeps what cleared the threshold. Only edges past ENGRAM_HEBB_LINK_MIN are
// ever queued, so what crosses the boundary already earned it.
//
// Failure is non-fatal by construction: a drained entry that fails to POST is
// gone, and that is fine a real association re-forms from live co-activation.
// The counts go into the heartbeat (hebb_wb_*) so a consolidation path that has
// stopped delivering is visible in the stream rather than in a later autopsy.
