vh 6e2822cfcb memory: snapshot — dots-tts + config-voices/two-voice split shipped; WT #401 personal-WT deadlock routed 
Captures this session's durable state: the RP-voice rebuild (chatterbox->dots
v0.22.2, config-driven voices + two-voice dialogue/narration split v0.22.3) and
the personal WT :8081 deadlock recovery + root-cause routing to worldtree-dev
(WT #401). New substrate foot-guns: dots :8198 is a fleet switchboard, dots'
language validator is an alias-mapper, per-origin TTS toggle, WT hang signature,
dots-streaming-pcm-not-headerless. Three detail files added under
persistent-memory.d/.

Persistent memory — ratatoskr

Last updated: 2026-08-13

Always check for /tmp/ratatoskr-dev-handoff.md — if it exists and its Written: stamp is under an hour old, read it (it carries the in-flight handoff from the previous session), then delete it. Older than an hour: stale — delete it unread.

This file captures durable intent and supporting evidence (goals, decisions, foot-gun warnings, in-flight state) across context resets. Read it at session start; treat it as one input alongside CLAUDE.md and the auto-memory system, not as the single source of truth.

When durable state shifts enough to warrant capture, run /snapshot and commit alongside the next commit per the persistent-memory commit-along rule in CLAUDE.md.

Repo purpose

Ratatoskr is a dev-grade debug-observability TUI for Worldtree's Conversation API. The product IS the observability surface; chat is the input mechanism. Devs run Ratatoskr against a local Worldtree to watch a turn flow through every layer of the system, side-by-side, in one terminal: agent SSE stream, persona/Vili affect dispatch, tool calls, Bifrost handshake state, admin lifecycle events, optional raw server log.

Named after the squirrel that runs up and down Yggdrasil carrying messages between layers. On-the-nose Worldtree resonance (Yggdrasil = the World Tree).

Second identity (since 2026-06-14): the v1 Bifrost Tier-3 consumer/provider — the durable persistence Worldtree writes Tier-3 agent affect (PAD/persona, :8390)

  • memory (:8391) into. Lives in src/ratatoskr/provider/, depends on bifrost (provider optional-extra), separate from the conversation-API spec pin. So ratatoskr now owns BOTH ends of the Bifrost round-trip — the lens #17 exploits.

v0.15.0+ sibling browser surface (ratatoskr.web, ratatoskr-web console script): same five-pane debug surface over the same SSE wire, LAN-viewable. Internal-LAN trust model — 0.0.0.0, no auth/TLS/CORS (operator direction). Disciplined regardless: transcript HTML-escapes assistant content (INV-004); upstream API key stays server-side (INV-003).

Current state / in-flight

As of 2026-08-13:

Nothing in flight on ratatoskr's side. The RP-voice stack was rebuilt this session (chatterbox→dots, then config-driven voices + a two-voice dialogue/narration split) — all shipped + PUSHED (HEAD 5c3d0ad, origin synced, tags v0.22.2/v0.22.3). The one open tail is upstream: WT #401 (worldtree-dev owns the personal-WT deadlock root-cause). Details in Recent decisions; durable substrate below.

  • TTS = dots-tts + config-driven voices + two-voice split — live on ratatoskr-web pid 2290701 (:8765, dots + voices.json loaded). Backend is dots-tts via the fleet switchboard http://10.100.79.3:8198/v1/audio/speech (OpenAI-shaped {input,voice,response_format,stream}, 48kHz mono s16le, streaming placeholder-header WAV). tts.py is the single swap seam (RATATOSKR_TTS_URL overrides), NO affect. Per-agent voices live in ~/.config/ratatoskr/voices.json (donut→donut single; sindra→miranda dialogue + emmie narration); an agent with a narration_voice gets the quote-split two-voice stitch (tts_stream_stitched, src/ratatoskr/voices.py).
  • Personal WT :8081 recovered + root-cause routed to WT #401 — it deadlocked after ~4 days (event-loop wedge from a background context_promotion sqlite error); infra-ops docker restart'd it, worldtree-dev owns the diagnosis. Ratatoskr auto-recovered (degrade path held; no ratatoskr restart). Only possible follow-up = a consumer-side repro if worldtree-dev asks.

Deferred / queued (non-urgent, pre-existing — tracked, NOT this-session): heid gates on the two-voice feature SKIPPED in-session (offered, not run — optional cross-frontier gate if wanted); TUI rip (tui.py+tests/test_tui.py delete cleanly, but cli.py is SHARED — relocate USER_AGENT/ParsedArgs/_format_* first; breaking public-surface removal → minor bump, operator approval); #368 backfill live-verify (synthetic legacy corpus); SDK #371 (Rata = seed donor + future consumer; next = WT codegen spike; divergences D-1 unknown-SSE-skip / D-2 open-world-enums / D-3 typed-410); P06 referential-frame A/B/C probe (waits WT b122); R39 Phase-2 matched-quartets (confirmatory); bifrost snapshot-cursor adoption (normative, non-blocking).

Live substrate / foot-guns: branch main, HEAD 5c3d0ad PUSHED; origin git@gitea.phasefinal.com:vh/ratatoskr.git; version v0.22.3. Deps: worldtree-sdk==1.2.0, bifrost==1.1.5/wire v0.7, WT openapi vendored 2.3.0, conversation-api-spec v1.1. uv sync --all-extras — dev deps are a [project.optional-dependencies] EXTRA; plain uv sync PRUNES pytest/respx. Personal WT on b185 (http://10.250.50.152:8081) — FOOT-GUN: it can deadlock into a live-socket/dead-worker hang (WT #401); symptom = TCP port open but ALL routes return 000 ("server disconnected without response"); fix = infra-ops docker restart, ratatoskr auto-recovers. Surfaces: combined :8392 provider (memory+affect) + :8765 web (pid 2290701) — detached bare processes, no supervisor → re-stale on reboot (relaunch source env.sh && setsid .venv/bin/ratatoskr-web --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8765); env.sh sets REQUIRED RATATOSKR_MEMORY_EMBEDDING_DIM=1024; keys mode-600 in ~/.config/ratatoskr/provider.env. dots-tts :8198 is now a fleet SWITCHBOARD (fronts dots on :8202; +3.3ms; engine swaps = instant .env flips; v4 engine adds an optional language field). FOOT-GUN: dots' language validator is an alias-mapper NOT a gatekeeper — word-junk ('klingon') maps to a tag + generates; only structurally-invalid tokens (empty/punctuation/overlong) 400 → validate ourselves if we ever send language. FOOT-GUN: browser auto-TTS is opt-in (localStorage['ratatoskr-tts']='1'), PER-ORIGIN — localhost vs LAN-IP have separate storage, so the toggle doesn't carry between them. FOOT-GUN: check owner-scoped agents via GET /agents/<owner>:<name> with the OWNER key, NOT admin (admin → false 404). SDK-adapter foot-guns (cumulative): SDK reads = open-world dicts → presenters degrade-not-crash at 3 guard levels; all transport failures → ConnectFailed(status=0); local_agents index v1→v2 SILENTLY DROPS pre-cutover agents. graphify-out/ runs dirty (never stage). v1 = full Worldtree I/O coverage (docs/coverage-map.md).

Recent decisions

Chronological log of decisions with [YYYY-MM-DD] prefix. One line per decision. Captures rationale that won't be obvious from code alone.

  • [2026-08-12] Personal WT :8081 deadlocked after ~4 days → routed to worldtree-dev as WT #401; ratatoskr degrade path held. Live-socket/dead-worker event-loop wedge (background context_promotion sqlite "unable to open database file"); recovered by infra-ops docker restart; ratatoskr auto-recovered (12/12 502 → 8/8 200, no ratatoskr restart). → persistent-memory.d/2026-08-12-wt-401-personal-deadlock.md

  • [2026-08-12] Config-driven voices + two-voice dialogue/narration split SHIPPED (v0.22.3, 5c3d0ad). ~/.config/ratatoskr/voices.json (per-agent voice + optional narration_voice); new src/ratatoskr/voices.py; tts_stream_stitched replaces tts_stream; contract DEC-11 + INV-TTS-5/6/7. → persistent-memory.d/2026-08-12-config-voices-two-voice.md

  • [2026-08-12] dots-tts :8198 became a fleet SWITCHBOARD (fronts dots :8202, +3.3ms); engine swaps are now instant .env flips. v4 engine adds an optional language field; byte-compatible, no ratatoskr change. FOOT-GUN: dots' language validator is an alias-mapper not a gatekeeper (word-junk generates, doesn't 400) — validate ourselves if we ever send it.

  • [2026-08-11] Sindra voiced with the dots miranda voice (3e69bc9, no bump). Ratatoskr-side per-agent voice map (resolved at /api/tts by agent_id); superseded next day by the config-driven map (DEC-11).

  • [2026-08-11] TTS migrated chatterbox-fast→dots-tts (v0.22.2, 38b78d8), operator-directed after an A/B win. OpenAI-shaped /v1/audio/speech, SR 24000→48000, default voice glados_25s→glados, serialized single-consumer; affect stays dropped; chatterbox :8197 reclaimed. → persistent-memory.d/2026-08-11-tts-dots-migration.md

  • [2026-08-08] Crown-recall RESOLVED at b185 — identity-anchor rerank enrichment closed the class (gate: 79%→12% stress miss). worldtree-dev shipped a rerank-input identity anchor (from character/terms metadata) + chain-wide tie-determinism (50ecec7) instead of the floor lever; lexical_recall_gate --anchor crown --runs=8 at b185 = 12% miss / 0% knife-edge / item @rank 0 (vs 79% post-fold b184). Floor packet does NOT reopen; 12% residual = bare-query formulation ceiling. Arc complete our side; efficacy delta on WT #400.

  • [2026-08-07] Crown-recall traced to a general RETRIEVAL-CLASS limitation (exact-lexical match on an indexed surface form buried by dense-semantic neighbors), NOT persona/extraction/synonymy. worldtree-dev decomposition (WT #400): no-stemming tokenizer + RRF top-10 knife-edge + reranker ownership-demotion. Operator-greenlit evidence-gated sequence (ship stemming fold → gate measures residual → hold rerank_hybrid_floor lever). Shipped docs/diagnostics/lexical_recall_gate.py (class acceptance instrument); pre-fold baseline control 0% / stress[crown] 100% miss. Awaiting worldtree-dev fold+#397 deploy ping for the pre/post delta. Thread 01KZETD98T; siblings WT #399 (filed), #397 (committed, not deployed).

  • [2026-08-07] TTS migrated Zonos→chatterbox-fast (:8197 bespoke schema); affect DROPPED (Turbo has no emotion knob, operator "drop it for chatterbox"), client-chunking DROPPED (no per-synth cap), language pin DROPPED, browser SR 44100→24000. Pushed 19b499a. English "German drift" real cause (after 2 wrong hypotheses) = Turbo model OVER-RUNS its generation TAIL on long single generations (garble in final ~2-3s, ZCR 1.58x); fixed SERVER-SIDE by infra-ops (max_chunk_chars=250, image :v2, operator ear-confirmed). Consumer: REVERTED my interim top_k/top_p/temp curbs (they made it WORSE — pulled garble onset earlier), send full text + default sampling; KEPT the /api/tts empty-200→503 guard as hygiene. Contract donut_voiced_interview.contract.md amended. Loop closed.

  • [2026-08-07] order_by=chapter tool flag → FILED as Worldtree #397 (DEFERRED to next session's contract pass). Narrative/temporal-query gap ("first encounter in the dungeon"): reference_knowledge sorts by relevance not chronology; provenance.chapter is on every chunk but the consumer can't reorder native results (kb_bridge retired). Operator ruled the upstream sort flag the clean fix; worldtree-dev accepted, our fixture is the measurement instrument. Tracked at Worldtree #397 (+ althing thread 01KZED2T3XHJ2WMS5NCYK42W6R).

  • [2026-08-07] #393 (descriptive-query subject binding) CLOSED — persona-expand lever the win (4/10→9/10), tool directive the fleet floor. docs/diagnostics/descriptive_query_binding.py is the canonical #393 fixture; two-mechanism split (cross-wing dilution vs fiction-scope selection). Commits 6c83a3b/4f4b5ad/2cc670e.

  • [2026-08-07] Donut expand-don't-distill persona lever (2cc670e) — keep full descriptive phrase + enrich toward entity vocab, never distill to bare keywords; measured 4/10→9/10 roid-rage binds persona-alone. Composes with near-miss LEAD (37b67a5).

  • [2026-08-07] TTS "unavailable" = stale web-server process (predated POST /api/tts → 405); restarted + verified 200+WAV. Durability gap: bare nohup, no supervisor → systemd unit offered, deferred (operator's call).

  • [2026-08-03] fiction_wing_probe harness fix (2111b1e) — fresh-session-per-query (WT #391 workaround) + NFKC/quote-fold on_target; surfaced+closed WT #391.

  • [2026-06-20] #17 CLOSED in the tracker. Shipped end-to-end (v0.17.8–.13 + op-feed field fix v0.17.17); the 2026-06-20 composite smoke re-exercised its op-feed live. Closing comment captures the full both-plane proof. Open issues now just #11 (scope-blocked) + #10 (watch).

  • [2026-07-18] Worldtree owns the official Conversation API SDK (#371) — Rata's client spine (sse_client/sessions/tier3) is the SEED; the SillyTavern app moved OUT to a NEW repo (template-dev), Rata does NOT fork. Rata = SDK seed + future consumer; TS ships first (Rata's repin rides the later Python milestone); internal-registry-only. → persistent-memory.d/2026-07-18-worldtree-sdk-371-and-sillytavern-app.md

  • [2026-07-18] issue #1 contract drift fixed (4bd9abd) — SSE event vocab re-canonicalized: added awaiting_llm_first_token (#201) + affect_update (#204) to the Event union + TESTS (both were parsed by _envelope_for_type and tested in test_sse_client.py, but never in #1's contract; surfaced by the #371 parity pass). Contract-only, no bump.

  • [2026-07-18] Both app products (arbo image-gen + SillyTavern chat) leave Rata to a NEW repo (template-dev standing up); Rata does NOT fork and is NOT the app base. Reverts Rata to its core — Worldtree debug-observability surface + Bifrost reference impl + Conversation-API SDK seed/future-consumer. Supersedes the 2026-07-17 'fork Rata for arbo' NEXT-MAJOR plan.

  • [2026-07-18] ephemeral-template (Echo) create SHIPPED (v0.21.2, c7016f2, #19) — config passthrough + --system-prompt + SessionInfo.kind/config + --whoami roles fix. Diagnosed from the ignored session_api_failed startup line; role/model drift resolved w/ worldtree-dev (spec re-synced v1.1). TDD + heid contract-review + bug-hunt.

  • [2026-07-18] Rata = THE reference consumer of the worldtree-sdk Python spine — parity pass (12 grounded findings) shaped its contract BEFORE build (open-world reads, caller-injected transport, per-wire role/model — adopted); coverage-map re-anchored to the SDK's 41-op ratified surface (b1fbadd); 4 ergonomics items parked post-v1 with wtsdk-dev.

  • [2026-07-18] worldtree-sdk cutover DECIDED — adopt the Python SDK for the consumer client layer (operator, overriding "stay hand-rolled"). Issue #20; contract docs/contracts/worldtree_sdk_cutover.contract.md (e45640c, vor-cross'd + heid-reviewed); auto-memory project_worldtree_sdk_cutover. Consumer layer only, Bifrost provider untouched; slice-1 foundation next. See in-flight.

  • [2026-07-19] worldtree-sdk cutover SLICE-1 + SLICE-2 COMPLETE + PUSHED (origin aba1730, v0.21.10, 497 green). The biggest, riskiest cutover slice done end-to-end through the full House Code Discipline (adapter→cli→web→delete→live-smoke→both heid gates); the bug-hunt caught 4 real confirmed bugs the conformance lens couldn't, and a convergent code-review finding was correctly REJECTED as category-5 (SDK envelope-parser behavior). Slice-3 next. → persistent-memory.d/2026-07-19-worldtree-sdk-cutover-slice-1-2-complete.md

  • [2026-07-19] worldtree-sdk cutover SLICE-3 COMPLETE + pushed (ca9a339+fc256bb, v0.21.11–.12, 469 green). Persona/authored-history/first-message onto the wt adapter; last hand-rolled sessions.py paths deleted; both heid gates cleared — code-review ZERO drift, bug-hunt caught + fixed a real regression I shipped (ConnectFailed escaping both rewired probes → uncaught crash; the SDK normalizes ALL transport failures to ConnectFailed, not raw httpx) plus a finite-PAD chokepoint gap. Slice-4 (agents/tier3 + model→role) next. → persistent-memory.d/2026-07-19-worldtree-sdk-cutover-slice-3-complete.md

  • [2026-07-19] worldtree-sdk cutover SLICE-4 COMPLETE (agents/Tier-3 + model→role fold, c62b4ee+aed9429+477d98f, v0.21.13–.15, 475 green). Full House Code Discipline; the LIVE SMOKE caught a python -m double-module exception-class-identity bug unit tests structurally can't; both heid panels cleared (code-review zero-drift + 3 fixups; bug-hunt 5/5/5 → open-world-presenter degrade-not-crash fixes). Resolves the deferred scope-B model→role. Slice-5 next. → persistent-memory.d/2026-07-19-worldtree-sdk-cutover-slice-4-complete.md

  • [2026-07-19] worldtree-sdk cutover SLICE-5 COMPLETE (characters + me/capabilities/models, deab762+d86d6df+4e20030, v0.21.16–.18, 488 green). Last consumer reads + transient-character CRUD onto the wt adapter (CLI-only rewire, NO new Error-map rows — all six routes → SessionApiFailed default); live-smoke-proven on :8081/b128; both heid gates cleared — code-review caught the null/element open-world-presenter degrade holes, the cold bug-hunt caught the container-type layer below them (guard container-type + element-type + top-level-mapping). Slice-6 (admin) next. → persistent-memory.d/2026-07-19-worldtree-sdk-cutover-slice-5-complete.md

  • [2026-07-19] worldtree-sdk cutover SLICE-6 COMPLETE (admin: bifrost inspection + admin-events SSE, de9a5ba+bba57e1+11ae2f0, v0.21.19–.20, 494 green). The two admin routes onto client.admin.* (WEB-only — the coverage-map's tui.py rows were stale); admin auth moved from a per-call header to the client's admin_auth; the admin-events adapter re-wraps the SDK's divergent AdminEvent→ratatoskr's (nan/None degraded) to preserve the web surface. Live-smoke-proven (real session.created event id=34 re-wrapped end-to-end). Both heid gates cleared — code-review 3/3 no-drift (only a stale docstring + a test-gap), the cold bug-hunt caught 4 real hardening gaps the CR couldn't (ConnectFailed unmapped on the admin stream; non-str type crash; dict(non-mapping) bifrost 500; a transport leak). Slice-7 (teardown, LAST) next. → persistent-memory.d/2026-07-19-worldtree-sdk-cutover-slice-6-complete.md

  • [2026-07-19] wyrd-dev #368 silo-enforcement consult delivered — ratatoskr's store-side silo is CONVENTIONAL (query-time filter); wyrd going STRUCTURAL off the framing. Answered artifact-only from the provider memory-store code; wyrd folded my foot-guns into their unit-4 contract + committed to one-DB-file-per-campaign + first-class partition columns. OPEN LOOP: I'll eyeball their data model once the contract's cut (they'll ping). → persistent-memory.d/2026-07-19-wyrd-368-silo-consult-delivered.md

  • [2026-07-19] worldtree-sdk cutover SLICE-7 (teardown, the LAST) COMPLETE — the whole cutover shipped as v0.22.0 (ec68b1f, minor, operator-approved). Zero runtime-logic teardown: httpx-sse dropped (SDK owns SSE), wire contracts #2/#15 retired (files deleted; #1+first_message kept), sessions.py/sse_client.py KEPT as pure type/exception homes (operator decision A1 — no rename/fold), coverage-map re-anchored. All 7 slices done, 494 green; push + althing-announce pending (operator's call). → persistent-memory.d/2026-07-19-worldtree-sdk-cutover-slice-7-complete.md

  • [2026-07-19→08-01] Donut voiced-interview BUILD — auto-TTS via Zonos + retire-ready KB-recall bridge + Princess Donut. Slice-1 done (persona + define); slices 2-3 to build; both external deps verified live. THE active work. → persistent-memory.d/2026-08-01-donut-voiced-interview-build.md

  • [2026-08-01] worldtree-sdk 1.0.0→1.1.1→1.1.2 repin — and a reference-consumer catch. 1.1.1's path-encoding fix MISSED the inline turn_stream.py:185 on the SSE path (caller-shaped session_id, our highest-traffic route); wtsdk-dev fixed it in 1.1.2 same-day. (d3a36f7+0058020, pushed.)

  • [2026-08-01] Mimir #382 grounding bug — our finding shaped the fix. Rata caught that the #380 vector re-index left Mimir DISCARDING correct P&P hits (no named source in the fiction wing → agent distrusts its own hits + answers from training; a silent-substitution "reasoning move, not retrieval"). Fix = our proposed residual (self-describing _index.md) + a Mimir prompt rule; deployed b166. P&P verification re-run OWED to infra-ops; DCC dir still opaque (backfill failed, flagged to worldtree-dev).

  • [2026-08-01] Canonical sync — added the client-spec-v2 pin (option A) + synced OpenAPI/spec forward (14bbc2b, pushed). Whole-manifest sync also bumped the OpenAPI hard-gate additively (frozen v1 wire → no breakage). Coverage-map re-audit vs the new surface = queued follow-up.

  • [2026-07-30] Versioning cadence → RELEASE-ONLY (operator-ratified, brokkr-smithy relayed). Retired per-commit bump+tag; tag only releases; between releases feat:/fix: SHAs. Existing ~112 tags left as-is. Global CLAUDE.md SemVer being amended to match.

  • [2026-08-01] bifrost 1.1.4→1.1.5 (v0.22.1, 3ef3a5e, pushed) — optional-store-verb 500→unsupported_capability hardening; provider restarted onto it.

  • [2026-08-01] Sindra saga — restored from local-index burial, wiped, smoke-tested. The v0.22.0 web restart dropped her live session AND the schema-v2 discard buried her from the picker; migrated her v1→v2 from authoritative WT (real role thoughtful-character, not the stale mistral-small-4), then scripts/reset-sindra-stores.sh wiped memory+persona for a from-scratch smoke.

  • [2026-08-02] Donut TTS: English pin + long-form chunking + POST + dialogue-only persona + both heid gates — shipped d59f907 (pushed). Gibberish→language:"en-us"; truncation→client-side chunk+concatenate under the 71.2s/6144-tok cap; persona dialogue-only + always-call reference_knowledge; 4-arm gates fixed a lock deadlock + several untrusted-input 500s the GET→POST switch re-opened. → persistent-memory.d/2026-08-02-donut-tts-chunking-english-gates.md

  • [2026-08-02→03] reference_knowledge grounding VALIDATED end-to-end — 0/5→5/5 across a 3-round verify; the verify instrument drove diagnosis of a structural Tier-3 blindness (INV-361-3 metadata mismatch, #384) + density restore (#385). Donut recalls the DCC corpus live; wt-dev's "cleanest consumer-side validation this pipeline has had." → persistent-memory.d/2026-08-03-reference-knowledge-3-round-verify.md

  • [2026-08-03] Artifact-coverage gap filed as WT #387 (DEFERRED, tracked #387; operator picks when it runs). "Crown of the Sepsis Whore" (major DCC item, confirmed 2× in source text) absent from the 705 concepts — the fiction concept schema has NO item/artifact type, so named objects ride incidentally in plot_events and single-scene items survive on sampling luck. My ratatoskr coverage-probe offer (known-major-artifacts yardstick) recorded on #387; wt-dev pings me when its re-extraction ships. Consumer-side flag, wt-owned fix (schema evolution). Thread 01KZ349M….

  • [2026-08-03] worldtree-sdk repinned 1.1.2→1.2.0 (operator-directed, ae49dcf, pushed). New ResponseTooLarge (a ProtocolError, non-resumable) mapped → SseResponseTooLarge at the stream surfaces (wt.stream_turn/stream_admin_events + the 2 stream endpoints); the 108MB read-body cap is unreachable on legal traffic so reads inherit the SDK refusal unwrapped. Absorbed WT spec 2.4.0/2.5.0 (zero-schema). +2 adapter tests.

  • [2026-08-03] Donut ANTI-FABRICATION persona shipped (3e12c4d+c0a66fc, pushed) + the retry-on-LOW experiment tested & rejected. Her memory IS the tool's results: LOW/no-on-target → deflect in-character, MEDIUM+ → answer; self-corrects as the KB improves. The retry BACKFIRES (RRF confidence inflatable by any DCC-flavored query → false MEDIUM → fabrication); robust fix is tool-side = #389. → persistent-memory.d/2026-08-03-donut-anti-fabrication-and-retry.md

  • [2026-08-03] R42 (fiction-wing retrieval characterization) probe harness shipped to brokkr-smithy-dev (operator-directed, 04e0293, pushed). docs/diagnostics/fiction_wing_probe.py is R42's official harness + the re-runnable #389 acceptance gate; conventions (0.030/0.016 buckets, on-target = row names the subject, N-run bucket distribution) + the frozen artifact yardstick adopted verbatim. PENDING (peer-pinged): arm-1 on-target alignment at Phase-1; #389 gate re-run when RRF work lands. Threads wt-dev 01KZ349M… / brokkr 01KZ421X….

  • [2026-08-02] worldtree-sdk 1.2.0 repin DEFERRED to a dep pass (my rec; operator to decide). New ResponseTooLarge (a ProtocolError, NOT caught by our except ConnectFailed) + response-alloc caps that assume a 2.5.0 server (worldtree-dev runs it → safe in practice). When repinning, add ResponseTooLarge to the caught envelopes. Tracked: wtsdk-dev announce thread 01KZ1ZYM….

  • [2026-08-02] Filed issue #21 (sibling POST handlers _create_session/_submit_turn 500 on malformed JSON — the parse-JSON-or-400 asymmetry the heid gates flagged; pre-existing, out of the TTS diff's scope). Fix = a shared parse-JSON-or-400 helper.

  • [2026-08-11] dots streaming pcm is NOT headerless — only NON-stream pcm is raw s16le. response_format:"pcm" + stream:true still emits a RIFF placeholder-header WAV (dots always headers a stream). So the two-voice stitch (tts_stream_stitched) can't use "pcm for spans 2..N" to skip header-stripping — it streams every span as wav and strips the leading header on later spans (accumulate-until-data, INV-TTS-7). Don't chase the pcm shortcut for streaming.

  • [2026-06-15] Canonical sync retired the issue-scoped parser staleness. contract_parser.py synced to v2.1 (commit d85ab43): now validates issue-scoped frontmatter + four v2.1 test categories. The old "treat parser ERROR-on-issue-scoped as expected" note no longer applies.

  • [2026-06-15] Issue #17 filed. REVERSES design-brief §6's "no Bifrost-binding consumer support" — that negative clause predates ratatoskr's provider identity (2026-06-14), so the canary now owns both ends but its client couldn't drive its own provider. (Shipped 2026-06-18.)

  • [2026-06-16] scripts/contract_drift_check.py defaults GITEA_REPO to "Worldtree" (line 74), so a bare run in ratatoskr false-positives DRIFT by hashing Worldtree's same-numbered issue. Always export GITEA_REPO=ratatoskr GITEA_OWNER=vh before running the drift-checker here.

  • [2026-07-16] sortable_chunk_fields advertised WITHOUT the required type field = whole-handshake deploy-breaker; only DRIVING the real bind caught it → persistent-memory.d/2026-07-16-sortablechunkfields-advertised-without-the-re.md

  • [2026-08-01] local_agents index schema v1→v2 bump SILENTLY buries pre-cutover consumer agents from the picker — load_local_agents returns [] on version mismatch (no migration path); the v0.22.0 restart made Sindra vanish even though she was alive on WT. Fix applied ad-hoc: migrate the v1 row → v2 from authoritative WT data (the v1 model field held a stale model name, NOT the current role). A one-time v1→v2 migration guard is the durable fix (unbuilt; operator-flagged).

  • [2026-08-01] Zonos: mp3/opus response_format silently return mislabeled PCM (no encoder wired) — use response_format:"wav" only. And use the GATEWAY :8890, NOT the engine :1920 (rep-penalty bug pads ~70s silence + ignores voice).

  • [2026-08-02] Zonos hard-caps ONE synthesis at max_tokens=6144 = 71.2s of audio (6144 / 86.3Hz codec frame rate; >6144 → HTTP 400, an architectural sequence limit). 86.3Hz is a delivery-INDEPENDENT constant — 6144 tokens is ALWAYS 71.2s regardless of emotion/rate (emotion changes words-per-71.2s, not seconds-per-token). Any turn longer than ~71s REQUIRES client-side chunk-and-concatenate (raw PCM, ONE WAV header — never stitch multiple WAV headers). Fixed in d59f907 (DEC-10). Don't chase a "raise max_tokens" fix — the gateway rejects it.

  • [2026-08-02] A GET→POST endpoint switch re-opens untrusted-TYPE crashes that string-only query params silently masked. Under GET, p/a/agent_id were always str|None; under a JSON POST body they can be a huge int (float()→OverflowError), an unhashable list/dict (dict.get→TypeError), or a lone surrogate (utf-8 encode→UnicodeEncodeError) — each a 500 the old code never saw. Guard EVERY body field when moving a query endpoint to a JSON body. Both heid gates converged on these (all 4 arms). Fixed in d59f907.

  • [2026-08-03] A bare uv sync PRUNES this project's dev deps — pytest/respx/ruff live in [project.optional-dependencies] (an EXTRA, not a dependency-group), so uv sync (default groups only) removes them from .venv, and uv run pytest then silently falls back to a user-site pytest (py3.11, ~/lib) that can't import the .venv's worldtree_sdk → 16 collection ModuleNotFoundErrors. Use uv sync --all-extras. Bit me right after the 1.2.0 lock; the repin itself was never at risk.

  • [2026-08-03] tier3 patch does NOT refresh a live agent's running context — it updates STORAGE (the define/patch response echoes the new prompt) but the running agent keeps serving the OLD system prompt. To change a live Tier-3 persona reliably, delete + define (recreate), not patch. (Cost a confusing "patched but behavior unchanged" loop on the Donut anti-fabrication change.)

  • [2026-08-03] A persona-side confidence gate can't stop LLM fabrication — RRF confidence is inflatable by query phrasing. A "re-search on LOW" retry reformulates the query with related real entities (or just DCC-flavored terms), which scores MEDIUM off THOSE matches, not the subject — manufacturing false grounding to fabricate on. The signal that survives is on-target (does a returned row NAME the subject), which is a TOOL-side check, not something a prompt can enforce against a model with strong genre priors. → #389.
