# Service profile: service-aligned MCP surface — three tools, one per
# memory service:
#   `retrieve`     — graph-aware hybrid retrieval (Retriever projection)
#   `remember`     — single write entry point (Ingestor projection)
#                    * mode=log     → zero-LLM event-folder upsert
#                    * mode=distill → LLM R-M-W into topic graph
#   `maintain`     — vault hygiene sweep (Maintainer projection)
#                    runs lint + decay; merge/split require an LLM and
#                    are off by default.
#
# The agent calls `remember(mode=log, name=…, content=…, materials=…)`
# continuously through the task — picking a stable `name` per logical
# thread so each call extends the same event folder rather than
# fragmenting. At task completion (or PreCompact / SessionEnd) it
# calls `remember(mode=distill, content=…, related_paths=…)` once to
# distill the active events into topic-level cognition. `maintain` is
# typically cron-driven, but the agent can invoke it explicitly when
# it suspects vault drift.
#
# For full direct control over every memory_* primitive (raw writes,
# fine-grained reads, separate sync/ingest tools, memory_lint) see
# ./expert.yaml.

      Graph-aware hybrid retrieval: vector + keyword + 1-hop wikilink
      BFS fusion. Use for "what do I know about X" / "did I work on Y" /

      Single write entry point — projects the Ingestor service. Two
      modes via the `mode` parameter:

      * `mode: log` (zero LLM, hot path) — idempotent upsert of an
        event FOLDER under `events/{date}/{name}/`. The folder
        contains the index `{name}.md` (Event schema, frontmatter +
        narrative + Materials footer) plus any raw materials you
        pass — conversation snippets, tool outputs, data dumps. The
        watcher indexes everything inside.

        CONTINUITY MODEL: pick a stable `name` per logical thread
        and call `remember(mode=log, ...)` repeatedly through the
        task. Each call extends the same folder:
          - new `content` → appended under a `## Update — {iso}`
            section
          - new `materials` → siblings (auto-suffix on filename
            collision)
          - `topics` + `tags` merged (union) into frontmatter
          - Materials footer regenerated to list every artifact

        First call (folder doesn't exist) → CREATE; subsequent calls
        with the same `name` while the event is `status: active` →
        APPEND. If `status: distilled` / `archived`, REFUSES and
        returns `suggested_name` so you start a fresh thread instead
        of mutating prior cognition. Call CONTINUOUSLY through a task
        as facts land, especially at PreCompact to dump verbose raw
        text into `materials` before context truncation.

      * `mode: distill` (LLM R-M-W loop, cold path) — DEFAULT. Run
        on EXPLICIT HANDOFF only: task completion / SessionEnd / when
        you decide the working set is ready. Not a per-turn tool.

        Hand off the working set in two interchangeable forms:
          - `content` — inline material to distill (hint, summary, or
            raw text)
          - `related_paths` — pointers (event folder indexes; the
            Ingestor follows `## Materials` to read each artifact,
            individual material files, candidate topics).

        The Ingestor reads the working set + linked topics, decides
        which existing topics to update / create, and flips each
        distilled event's status to "distilled". Returns an audit
        trail.

      Vault hygiene sweep — projects the Maintainer service. One pass:
      scan signals → propose ops → resolve conflicts → apply. Returns
      an audit trail of what ran and what changed.

      Default behavior runs `lint` (broken wikilinks, schema violations,
      stem collisions — read-only diagnostics) and `decay` (move stale
      events past their freshness window under `<vault>/Archive/`).
      Merge / split require an LLM and are off unless explicitly opted
      into via `ops`.

      Typically cron-driven; the agent invokes it on demand when it
      suspects vault drift (after a heavy session of edits, after a
      bulk rename, etc.). Dry-run by default — flip `dry_run=false` to
      apply changes.
