soul: graph API depth=1 caps the neighbor list (~11 bare / ~24 observed) and tag edges crowd out identity edges — inspection hides real wiring #88

Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Found 2026-07-18. GET /api/neuron/graph?id=&depth=1 on the values hub returned only tag edges + 1 identity edge while the snapshot held 97 hub edges (13 of them hub↔Value identity wiring). The response appears capped and ordered so 'tagged' edges fill the budget before identity/canonical edges.
Impact: any client inspecting the graph (MCP inspectGraph, session boot identity checks) concludes wiring is missing when it exists — this contributed to a false '8/13 values' diagnosis during the split-brain audit. Suggest: raise/paginate the cap, or rank identity/canonical relations above 'tagged', or accept a relation filter param.
Workaround in place: our vitals script counts wiring from the snapshot file, not this endpoint.
GROOMING — 2026-08-03
Status: Open — graph API depth=1 caps the neighbor list and lets tag edges crowd out identity/canonical edges, so inspection under-reports real wiring (contributed to a false 8/13-values diagnosis); a snapshot-file workaround is in place.
Next action: Will to raise/paginate the cap or rank identity/canonical edges above tagged (or add a relation-filter param).
