# HyperTwist Phase 6R-M4 first-party cognitive consolidation implementation packet

Created on `2026-05-28`

## Status

- first-party HyperTwist packet
- bounded `Phase 6R-M4` implementation slice

## Purpose

This packet lands the bounded first-party cognitive consolidation seam under
the canonical `Memory Lanes` doctrine.

The landed slice is:

- provenance-backed cognitive facts
- contradiction handling
- supersession links
- confidence decay

It is not:

- a broad memory federation packet
- a replay of `6R-M1`, `6R-M2`, or `6R-M3`
- a curated knowledge-promotion packet
- a user-notes packet
- a compact reducer/digest packet

## Current authority basis

This implementation packet stands on:

- `docs/ops/HYPERTWIST_MEMORY_LANE_AUTHORITY_AND_PHASE_IMPLEMENTATION_DOCTRINE_2026-05-21.md`
- `docs/ops/HYPERTWIST_CONTINUITY_LATTICE_AND_CONTEXT_ASSEMBLY_PROFILE_DOCTRINE_2026-05-23.md`
- `docs/ops/HYPERTWIST_IMPLEMENTATION_PHASE_1_KICKOFF.md`
- `docs/v6_5_deep_manual_pack/HyperTwist/ARCHITECTURE.md`
- `docs/v6_5_deep_manual_pack/HyperTwist/FEATURE_REGISTRY.md`
- `docs/v6_5_deep_manual_pack/HyperTwist/PROVENANCE_AND_TRUST_MODEL.md`
- `docs/arch/HYPERTWIST_PHASE6R_M4_FIRST_PARTY_COGNITIVE_CONSOLIDATION_PREPARATION_PACKET_2026-05-28.md`

The preserved owners do not change:

- first-party HyperTwist remains the top-level owner for live cognitive
  consolidation product surfaces
- the landed `Phase 6R-M1` ledger remains the provenance substrate beneath this
  packet
- the landed `Phase 6R-M2` chronicle/continuity layer remains the current
  history/open-work substrate beneath this packet
- the landed `Phase 6R-M3` recall/shared-context layer remains the current
  explicit retrieval and scoped-sharing substrate beneath this packet
- current training, replay, coaching, and repository code remains the raw
  evidence substrate beneath this packet
- the VectorShell memory doctrine remains the external synchronization
  entrypoint and authority map, not a frozen imported implementation

## Landed scope

The current code now owns a bounded first-party cognitive consolidation seam
through:

- canonical cognitive-fact, contradiction, supersession, confidence-decay, and
  cognitive-consolidation state types in:
  - `HyperTwistMemoryTypes.h`
- first-party cognitive-consolidation derivation from current training
  repository state over the already-landed `6R-M1`, `6R-M2`, and `6R-M3` seams
  in:
  - `UHyperTwistMemoryCoreLibrary`
- current bounded cognitive coverage for:
  - review pressure
  - follow-up posture
  - carry-forward posture
  - archive posture
  - persistent weak-case pressure
  - dominant guidance-lane posture
- current bounded contradiction and supersession coverage that preserves both
  sides of contested derived conclusions and keeps stale conclusions explicit
  instead of silently overwriting them
- current bounded confidence-decay coverage for:
  - no-direct-authoritative-lineage cases
  - contradiction-review cases
  - superseded derived conclusions
- sample contract helpers in:
  - `UHyperTwistContractLibrary::MakeSampleTrainingMemoryCognitiveConsolidationState()`
  - `UHyperTwistContractLibrary::SerializeMemoryCognitiveConsolidationStateToJson(...)`
  - `UHyperTwistContractLibrary::DeserializeMemoryCognitiveConsolidationStateFromJson(...)`
- focused automation coverage in:
  - `HyperTwistMemoryPhase6RM4CognitiveConsolidationContractTest.cpp`

## Why this is still intentionally bounded

This packet lands cognitive consolidation only.

Still deferred:

- curated knowledge objects and reviewable promotion flows
- user-authored notes
- broad long-form summaries or compact digests
- reducer packets or reduced-context federation

## Validation

Build validation:

- `UnrealHyperTwistEditor Win64 Development`

Focused automation validation:

- `HyperTwist.FirstParty.Memory.Phase6R.M4.FactExtraction`
- `HyperTwist.FirstParty.Memory.Phase6R.M4.ContradictionSupersession`
- `HyperTwist.FirstParty.Memory.Phase6R.M4.SerializationRoundTrip`

Observed:

- `3` focused `Phase 6R-M4` automation tests succeeded

Non-blocking warnings stayed limited to the existing Unreal headless/editor
noise, expected Python-stub regeneration noise, headless CEF/web-browser
warnings, and benign asset-registry/cache journal chatter during editor
startup.

## Queue effect

This packet consumes the current `Phase 6R-M4` implementation slice.

Memory implementation is now live at the provenance-backed cognitive
consolidation layer through bounded cognitive facts, contradiction records,
supersession links, and confidence-decay entries over the landed `6R-M1`
ledger, `6R-M2` chronicle/continuity, and `6R-M3` recall/shared-context seams.

If later memory implementation continues:

- the next clean move is `Phase 6R-M5`
- do not reopen `6R-M4` as one broad "memory packet"
