will.anderson 4bff40fa4a fix(api): bound inspect_graph with relevance-ranked projection; regen soul.c
Neuron Soul CI / build (pull_request) Failing after 14m5s
Neuron Soul CI / deploy (pull_request) Has been skipped
High-fanout identity anchors (voice, writing-imprint, self-root) have ~670KB
neighborhoods. inspect_graph returned the full traversal, which overflowed the
MCP client's context and socket-closed the wrapper mid self-load -- the soul
could not traverse its own identity graph.

handle_api_inspect_graph gains an opt-in `compact` projection (compact=1|true):
the neighborhood is relevance-ranked, the top K (default 12) keep a UTF-8-safe
content snippet (default snip=600), and the remainder collapse to lightweight
{id,label,node_type,tier,edge,pointer:true} stubs. This bounds the voice node
from 669,799B -> 25,353B (HTTP 200, valid JSON) and the wrapper's soul-load no
longer socket-closes. New helpers: api_compact_neighbors, api_neigh_full,
api_neigh_pointer, api_neigh_rank, api_neigh_better, api_float_or.

The flag is gated: ABSENT it, the response is byte-identical to the old plain
traversal, so the studio app (which never sends it) is unaffected. The MCP
wrapper (mcp-wrapper/src/main.el) appends &compact=1 on its inspectGraph and
fetch-by-id paths.

dist/soul.c is REGENERATED so CI ships the fix: CI compiles the committed
single-TU dist/soul.c directly (running elb/elc on the Linux runner OOM-kills
it), so an .el-only change would build the OLD behavior. Regenerated and verified
on macOS -- compiles with the CI cc line (0 errors) and, on a throwaway soul over
a copy of the live snapshot, serves compact ~25KB / non-compact ~670KB. The regen
also syncs the amalgamation to this branch's .el sources, which had drifted
several self-review commits ahead of the previously-committed soul.c.

Docs: docs/architecture/00-05 added; 01/02/05 corrected so the relevance-ranked
inspect_graph projection reads as committed source, not an in-flight concern.

Tim Lingo 7b86e6f72c feat(soul): Stage 1 structural audit as a real route — an annotated characterization, not a score (#91)
`runStructuralAudit` has been an advertised MCP tool with nothing behind it: the
dispatcher GET'd /session/begin and returned that unrelated session digest under
an audit tool's name. Meanwhile the failure the audit would have caught ran
silently for about three weeks — the soul reporting 103,089 nodes while the
engram, which OWNS persistence, held ~79,900, a crash discarding the difference,
and every boot reporting green throughout, because nothing in the system ever
compared the two sides.

WHAT THE PATENT SPECIFIES, AND HOW IT SHAPED THIS
  CGI provisional, 05-detailed-description.md, "Stage 1: Structural audit 430".
  Two clauses did the design work. First the four things the module evaluates:
  the density and typed distribution of causal edges; value/execution-record
  consistency; the richness and connectivity of the self-model; and wonder-
  manifest authenticity. Second, and decisively: it "produces a coherence
  assessment 432 — NOT A BINARY SCORE but an annotated characterization of the
  graph's structural properties."

  So every finding carries its numbers AND a plain-language note saying what
  they mean and how they were obtained. There is no pass/fail and no composite
  health figure, and `"score":null` is emitted explicitly so a reader cannot
  mistake its absence for an omission.

WHAT IS IN STAGE 1 (four findings)
  owner_runtime_divergence   — the motivating case. Runtime counts vs the owner's
      own GET /api/stats, the delta, and the trend against the previous audit, so
      a second call answers "is the gap growing?" rather than restating it.
  self_model_connectivity    — the three identity pillars plus the self root:
      present, content length, one-hop degree. This RETIRES the Claude-side vitals
      identity block, which lived outside the system it was checking and went on
      reporting green while the memory-philosophy pillar was absent from the live
      graph. Asking the running soul is the designed mechanism; a shell probe was
      the fourth patch on the same hole.
  typed_edge_distribution    — exact counts against the claim-10 vocabulary, plus
      density, plus a separate count of LOWERCASE near-misses ("causes" vs
      "Causes"): "the vocabulary is unused" and "the vocabulary is misspelled by
      the write paths" are different defects with different fixes.
  orphans_and_dangling_edges — the tool's own long-standing promise.

WHAT IS DEFERRED, AND WHY IT IS DATA RATHER THAN A COMMENT
  Value/execution-record consistency and wonder-manifest authenticity ship as a
  `deferred` array that MEASURES the populations they would need (Prediction and
  WonderQuestion nodes) and reports those counts as the reason. Both are ~0 today
  — WonderQuestion because of a known write/read node-type mismatch. Asserting
  value coherence or a pull-weight correlation on an empty population would be a
  fabricated result, which is worse than a stated gap.

MEASUREMENT HONESTY: EXACT WHERE CHEAP, SAMPLED WHERE NOT, ALWAYS LABELLED
  Counts, edge typing and self-model connectivity are exact. Orphan and dangling
  rates are sampled, because engram_find_node_index is a linear scan — an
  exhaustive dangling check is O(nodes x edges), ~2.2e9 string compares at today's
  scale. Samples are UNIFORM across the whole population (str_index_of_all gives
  every edge offset in one pass, so any index is O(1); json_array_get would have
  been O(n^2)), never head-of-list, and each figure ships with its own sampled /
  population / exhaustive fields. ?edge_sample= and ?node_sample= at population
  size run either check exhaustively. The real fix is an id index in the runtime.

ONE BUG THIS FOUND IN ITSELF, CAUGHT IN TEST
  http_get does not return "" when the owner is unreachable — it returns a JSON
  error object. Testing only for "" made a DEAD owner read as reachable with
  node_count 0, so the audit reported 100% divergence and named it data loss.
  Reachability is now proved by the presence of the node_count field, and the
  owner's raw reply is attached. A confident wrong answer is exactly what this
  route exists to stop.

  Edge findings need relation labels and the runtime has no edge-enumeration
  builtin, so they use the same scratch export GET /api/graph/edges already uses
  (engram_save to TMPDIR, never the owner's canonical file — #117). That is a
  large write on a large graph, so this is a manual route, not a timer; ?edges=0
  skips it.

Rung: E2E-VERIFIED. Soul built from this branch (gen-soul-amalgam + cc-brain,
921,192 bytes, 16 warnings, 0 errors), booted on throwaway ports 7893/7896/7897
with throwaway HOMEs against a stub owner on 7894. Three scenarios pass: owner
reachable (runtime 62 vs owner 42, delta 20 / 32.2%, trend flat on the second
call; 12/20 edges claim-10 typed, 3 lowercase near-misses; 50/62 orphans, 3/20
dangling — every figure matches the fixture by construction), owner unreachable
(reported as a finding with the raw reply, not a crash), and file mode (owner
"none", divergence undefined). Reached end-to-end through the MCP tool via a
locally built wrapper. verify-soul-contract.sh: GATE PASS, 27/27 routes +
immutability. No process left running; live :7770 and :8742 untouched (GET only).

will.anderson 86e269fa91 self-review 2026-08-07: push what was learned; stop a read route writing the canonical store
Two fixes, one found by making the other.

1. HEBBIAN WRITE-BACK. This daemon learned 1,198 associations in 23h48m and
kept none of them: it syncs FROM the engram server and never pushes, and
mem_save() is unreachable in HTTP mode by design (soul.el only sets
soul_snapshot_path inside `is_genesis && safe_to_seed`, false whenever
ENGRAM_URL is set, because the server owns persistence). So the one process
that runs idle cognition -- where essentially all co-activation happens -- was
the one process that could not remember what it learned.

hebb_consolidate() now drains the runtime's write-back queue on every heartbeat
and POSTs it as ONE batch to /api/edges/batch. One request, one durable write,
not one 60MB snapshot per edge. Also drains on clean shutdown, so an exit
between beats doesn't take the last 8 minutes of learning with it.

_auth is required and its absence is silent: check_auth_ok exempts GET and
/api/neuron/state-events (which is why ise_post works keyless) but gates every
other mutation on "_auth" in the BODY -- http_serve surfaces no headers, so
there is no Bearer path. An unauthorized reply is NON-EMPTY, so the obvious
`if resp == "" return 0` check would have reported delivery of edges that were
refused, after the drain had already destroyed them. Caught before it shipped.
Gauges hebb_wb_pending/_drained/_dropped/_sent go into the heartbeat so a
consolidation path that stops delivering is visible in the stream.

2. A READ ROUTE MUST NEVER WRITE THE CANONICAL SNAPSHOT. GET /api/graph/edges
serialized this process's graph straight over $HOME/.neuron/engram/snapshot.json
-- the engram SERVER's durable store -- and read the edges back out of it. I
triggered it myself this morning fetching edges for the census above:
snapshot.json went from the server's 41,213 edges to the soul's 42,431, and the
next engram restart loaded the soul's graph as canonical. It happened to be a
superset (Knowledge 1198->1218, Memory 1238->1242, no durable type down), so
nothing was lost. That was luck. Had the soul been running a partial load --
the exact failure soul.el's safe_to_seed guard exists to catch -- one GET would
have destroyed the store, with no write-side guard able to see it coming.

The engram server fixed this same class of bug on 2026-07-21 by routing exports
to a dotted sidecar; the soul kept the original pattern. Same fix: exports go to
.soul-edges-export.json. Also stops a 60MB serialize-and-reread per GET.

Verified: boot 26 loaded 42,432 edges with hebb_max 0.4941 carried across the
restart -- the first time this daemon has ever started knowing what it learned.

will.anderson 6a27fd231e feat(neuron-api): add identity/values write protection
Block evolve_knowledge, evolve_memory, forget, and link_entities (to_id
direction) from modifying the 15 hardcoded identity and values node IDs.
Returns HTTP 403 with a hint to use the cultivation path instead.

Add POST /api/neuron/cultivate — the bypass endpoint for intentional
cultivation sessions. Accepts { "operation": "...", ...args } and performs
the same operations without the protection check.

Add handle_api_forget and handle_api_evolve_memory as new protected-by-
default handlers, routed at /api/neuron/memory/forget and
/api/neuron/memory/evolve respectively.

Tested: 10 verification cases — 403 on all blocked targets, 200 on
non-protected nodes and FROM-direction links, cultivate bypass confirmed.

will.anderson ffadafb0bf soul: native cognitive API — port all MCP logic to soul daemon
neuron-api.el is a new first-class El module that implements all Neuron
cognitive API handlers natively — no HTTP round-trips, no MCP wrapper,
direct engram builtin calls. All capabilities that previously lived in
the MCP wrapper adapter now live here in the soul.

Handlers: begin_session, compile_ctx, remember, recall, search_knowledge,
browse_knowledge, capture_knowledge, evolve_knowledge, promote_knowledge,
browse_processes, define_process, log_state_event, list_state_events,
inspect_config, tune_config, inspect_graph, link_entities, list_typed,
consolidate.

Routes wired in routes.el under /api/neuron/* (GET + POST).

Also compiles all loop-1/loop-2 .el source changes into dist/*.c and
rebuilds the binary. memory.elh and neuron-api.elh updated with new exports.
