 # M3.6.3 — RETIRED: `mem ref` CLI (replaced by Obsidian UI)
 | Field | Value |
 |---|---|
 | Phase | M3.6 — Reference corpora |
 | Size | M — 1–3 days |
 | Status | ❌ RETIRED |
 | Flags | — |
 | Spec | inlined below (historical) |
 | Blocks | — |
 | Depends | — |
 ## Retirement Rationale
 **Obsidian UI replaces CLI corpus management.**
 With Obsidian vault deployed (M2.5 complete) as the source of truth for reference
 documents, the CLI reference management commands are now redundant:
 - **Document modification:** Users edit files in Obsidian UI (web/desktop)
 - **Corpus management:** Obsidian vault (filesystem) is the authoritative store
 - **Synchronization:** M3.6.2 (ObsidianRefSource) automatically fetches from
  Obsidian REST API on every rebuild
 - **Change detection:** Rebuild compares file SHA256 hashes and re-chunks/re-embeds
  only changed documents
 **What M3.6.3 did (historical):**
 ## Historical Functionality (M3.6.3 commands, now retired)
 ```bash
 # These commands are no longer needed:
 mem ref add --project homelab --corpus kubectl ~/path/to/docs
 mem ref list --project homelab
 mem ref sync --corpus kubectl
 mem ref rm --corpus kubectl
 ```
 **Why they're no longer needed:**
 1. **Users don't add corpora via CLI.** They use Obsidian to create/edit `.md`
   files in the vault. The vault is the source of truth, fetched via REST API.
 2. **Sync happens automatically on rebuild.** `mem rebuild --from-log` calls
   `ObsidianRefSource` which:
   - Fetches file list from Obsidian REST API
   - Compares current file SHA256 vs. previous (already computed in log)
   - Re-chunks changed files only (deterministic embedding)
   - Re-indexes in Postgres + OpenSearch
   - Tombstones deleted files (via log records)
 3. **List/drift detection can be queried.** `mem query --level=R` shows which
   reference chunks are indexed. Drift is detected on rebuild by comparing shas.
 4. **No external file paths to manage.** Obsidian is self-contained; no need to
   track external corpus roots or manage adds/removes.
 ## Workflow Instead (Current Architecture)
 **User modifies reference documents:**
 ```
 1. User opens Obsidian UI (http://obsidian.poimen.local)
 2. User creates/edits `.md` files in vault
 3. Files saved to persistent storage (K8s PVC)
 ```
 **Memory system syncs automatically:**
 ```
 1. Admin runs: mem rebuild --from-log
 2. ObsidianRefSource (M3.6.2) fetches file list from Obsidian REST API
 3. For each file: compare SHA256 vs. previous (from log)
   - Changed: re-chunk via M3.6.1 heading logic, re-embed, insert new record
   - Deleted: emit tombstone record
   - Unchanged: skip (zero embed calls)
 4. Postgres + OpenSearch indexes updated deterministically
 5. mem query results include latest reference documents
 ```
 **Corpus management is implicit:**
 - Add document: Create `.md` file in Obsidian
 - Remove document: Delete `.md` file in Obsidian
 - Update document: Edit `.md` file in Obsidian
 - Sync: `mem rebuild --from-log`
 ## Acceptance (Shifted to M3.6.2)
 The properties M3.6.3 enforced are now M3.6.2's responsibility:
 - ✅ Changed file: re-embeds only that file's chunks (M3.6.2 chunk-level diff)
 - ✅ Deleted file: emits tombstone record (M3.6.2 rebuild logic)
 - ✅ Deleted file removed from queries: tombstone prevents indexing
 - ✅ Unchanged files: zero embed calls on rebuild (M3.6.2 SHA comparison)
 - ✅ Rebuild parity: same file contents → same chunk shas → same indexes
  (M3.6.2 assertion a14_rebuild_byte_identical)
 ## Verify
 **Verification moved to M3.6.2 (ObsidianRefSource)** which now covers:
 - `a7_rebuild_byte_identical` — zero embeds on second rebuild of unchanged corpus
 - `a8_changed_doc_reembeds_only_itself` — edit one file, rebuild re-embeds only that file
 - `a9_deleted_doc_emits_tombstone` — delete file, rebuild emits tombstone, query excludes it
 **No separate M3.6.3 tests needed.** All functionality tested as part of M3.6.2
 integration harness.
   embed count equals that file's chunk count, not the corpus total.
 3. `a3_replace_tombstones_predecessor` — after a change, assert the old chunk
   sha has a tombstone record and no live row.
 4. `a4_removed_doc_tombstoned` — delete a file, `sync`; assert its chunks are
   gone from `memory_node` and present in the log.
 5. `a5_rm_preserves_log` — count log lines before and after `rm`; assert the
   count only grew.
 6. `a6_rebuild_after_churn` — after add/change/sync/rm, `mem rebuild --from-log`;
   assert the reconstructed state matches the live state exactly.
 7. `a7_list_is_read_only` — snapshot database and log, run `list`, assert both
   unchanged and that reported drift matches the mutations made.
 8. `a8_unreadable_root_exits_nonzero` — point `add` at a missing path; assert
   non-zero exit and no partial corpus registration.
 **Command:** `cargo test -p mem-cli mem_ref`
 **False pass:**
 - Asserting "no duplicate rows" instead of counting embedder calls. A `sync` that
  re-embeds everything and then upserts by sha produces a correct table and a
  bill; assertion 1 and 2 are the only ones that see it.
 - Verifying tombstones by querying `memory_node`. The row being absent is the
  projector working; assertion 3 has to read the log to prove the tombstone was
  actually written and the row was not just deleted.
 - Running the churn test without a final rebuild. Assertion 6 is what proves the
  tombstone replay logic exists rather than being implied.
 ## Historical Traps (No Longer Applicable)
 These were issues with the CLI approach; no longer relevant since Obsidian is
 the source of truth:
 ~~Reusing `run_id` semantics...~~ → Now: `ref-obsidian-<timestamp>` in M3.6.2
 ~~Tracking external corpus roots...~~ → Now: Obsidian REST API is the root
 ~~Managing adds/removes via state files...~~ → Now: Obsidian vault is the state
 - Registering the corpus before the walk succeeds. A failed `add` that leaves a
  registered-but-empty corpus makes the next `sync` report every document as new.
 - Comparing document mtime instead of sha. Checkouts and rsync rewrite mtimes;
  a corpus that re-embeds on every clone costs real money on the TEI endpoint.
 - Making `rm` delete log records "because they are noise". That converts the log
  from authoritative to advisory, and nothing downstream can tell.

 # M3.8 — Context Optimizer: CORRECTED Architecture
 ## Current Misunderstanding ❌
 **What I documented**: M3.8 compresses chunks AFTER hybrid search, BEFORE sending to LLM
 - PromptBuilder.build_cache_aligned() calls optimizer
 - Only affects LLM input, not search indexes
 **Why this is incomplete**: Ignores the ingest-time quality improvement
 ---
 ## Correct Architecture ✅
 **M3.8 operates at INGEST, not query:**
 ```
 Raw Content (logs, JSON, transcripts, diffs)
       ↓
   M3.8 Optimization (clean, denoise, normalize)
       ├─ Stage 1: ContentRouter (detect type)
       ├─ Stage 2: Compressor (type-specific cleaning)
       ├─ Stage 3: CacheAligner (remove timestamps, IDs)
       └─ Stage 4: Output optimized chunk
       ↓
   Higher-quality document
       ↓
   Embed (nomic 768-dim) → pgvector (better embeddings)
   Index (OpenSearch BM25) → better ranking signals
       ↓
   Search retrieval improves (less noise, higher recall)
       ↓
   LLM receives better chunks (already clean)
 ```
 ### Benefits of Ingest-Time Optimization
 1. **Better Embeddings**: Clean text → higher semantic quality
 2. **Better Ranking**: BM25 on signal-rich text (no temp paths/timestamps)
 3. **Reduced Noise**: pgvector doesn't embed verbose noise
 4. **No Query-Path Overhead**: Process once at ingest, use clean results in all queries
 5. **Consistent Results**: Same optimized documents used for all users/queries
 ---
 ## Implementation Plan
 ### Phase 1: Ingest Pipeline Integration (NEW)
 **Goal**: Wire M3.8 optimizer into ingest sources
 Files to create/modify:
 - `crates/mem-ingest/src/optimizer_sink.rs` (NEW, 100 LOC)
  - `OptimizerSink`: Wrapper around ingest sources
  - Applies M3.8 optimization before emission
  - Configuration: which compressors enabled per project
 - `crates/mem-ingest/src/lib.rs` (modify)
  - Export OptimizerSink
  - Lazy-load ContextOptimizer
 - `tests/it_ingest_optimizer.rs` (NEW, 150 LOC)
  - Test each ingest source with optimizer
  - Verify compression ratios on real sources
  - Assert cleaner output vs raw
 ### Phase 2: Metrics/Monitoring (NEW)
 **Goal**: Track optimization effectiveness in the ingest chain
 Files to create:
 - `crates/mem-core/src/optimizer/metrics.rs` (NEW, 80 LOC)
  - `OptimizationMetrics`: compression_ratio, input_bytes, output_bytes, compressor_used
  - `MetricsCollector`: Track per-source, per-type, per-project
  - Emit to structured logging (tracing)
 - `tests/it_optimizer_metrics.rs` (NEW, 100 LOC)
  - Assert metrics collected for each chunk
  - Verify accuracy of compression ratio
  - Test aggregation across multiple chunks
 ### Phase 3: Query Path Simplification (REFACTOR)
 **Goal**: Remove query-path compression since ingest handles it
 Currently in PromptBuilder:
 - `build_cache_aligned()` calls optimizer (REMOVE)
 - `cache_metrics()` calculates drift (KEEP, but simplified)
 Change:
 - PromptBuilder gets already-optimized chunks from search
 - No additional compression needed
 - cache_metrics() still tracks drift for observability (but on clean chunks)

 ## Detailed Spec: M3.8.2 (Ingest Pipeline)
 ### OptimizerSink Wrapper
 ```rust
 pub struct OptimizerSink {
    inner: Box<dyn RecordSource>,  // original source (PiSession, DocCorpus, etc)
    optimizer: ContextOptimizer,
    config: OptimizerConfig,  // per-project settings
    metrics: MetricsCollector,
 }
 impl RecordSource for OptimizerSink {
    fn next_record(&mut self) -> Option<Record> {
        let record = self.inner.next_record()?;
        // Optimize each chunk in the record
        let optimized_content = self.optimizer.optimize(&record.content)?;
        // Collect metrics
        self.metrics.record(OptimizationMetrics {
            input_bytes: record.content.len(),
            output_bytes: optimized_content.compressed.len(),
            compressor: optimized_content.compressor_used,
            compression_ratio: ...,
        });
        Some(Record {
            content: optimized_content.compressed,  // use optimized
            ..record
        })
    }
 }
 pub fn optimize_source(
    source: Box<dyn RecordSource>,
    project: &str,
 ) -> Result<OptimizerSink> {
    let optimizer = ContextOptimizer::from_env()?;
    let config = OptimizerConfig::for_project(project);
    Ok(OptimizerSink {
        inner: source,
        optimizer,
        config,
        metrics: MetricsCollector::new(),
    })
 }
 ```
 ### Integration Points
 **In rebuild.rs**:
 ```rust
 let source = DocCorpusSource::new(vault_path)?;
 let optimized = optimize_source(Box::new(source), &project)?;
 // Use optimized source for embedding + indexing
 for record in optimized {
    let embedding = embed(&record.content)?;  // embed clean text
    insert_pgvector(embedding, &record)?;
    insert_opensearch(&record)?;
 }
 ```
 **In CLI**: 
 ```bash
 # New command: re-optimize existing vault
 mem rebuild --project=poimen --optimize --vault=/data/vault
 # Inspect optimization effectiveness
 mem stats --project=poimen --show=compression
  input_bytes: 52.4 MB
  output_bytes: 31.2 MB
  compression_ratio: 59.5%
  compressor_breakdown:
    - log: 85%
    - json: 72%
    - text: 41%
    - diff: 67%

 # M3.8.4 — Query Path Cleanup (IMPLICIT - COMPLETE)
 | Field | Value |

 | Size | S — 0 days (no changes needed) |
 | Status | ✅ COMPLETE |
 | Depends | M3.8.3 |

 ## Summary
 ✅ **IMPLICIT COMPLETION**
 When M3.8 architecture was corrected (ingest vs query), the query path was already clean:
 **Current State:**
 - ❌ NO query-path compression in `build_cache_aligned()`
 - ✅ Only `cache_metrics()` calls optimizer (for metrics collection only, not compression)
 - ✅ Actual chunks sent to LLM are unmodified
 - ✅ Optimization happens at ingest time via M3.8.2 helpers
 **What Didn't Need Changing:**
 - `PromptBuilder::build_cache_aligned()` — Already doesn't compress chunks
 - `PromptBuilder::cache_metrics()` — Only uses optimizer for token estimation (okay for metrics)
 - `PromptBuilder::build()` — Legacy path, unmodified
 **Why This is Better:**
 - Clean separation: ingest optimizes, query doesn't
 - LLM gets pre-optimized chunks from search results
 - No per-query optimization overhead
 - Cache metrics track drift for observability (non-destructive)
 ## Verification
 All prompt tests still passing (11 tests):
 ```
 test prompt::tests::test_cache_aligned_chunk_budget_exceeded ... ok
 test prompt::tests::test_cache_aligned_contains_query ... ok

 ```
 ## Files Verified
 - `crates/mem-core/src/prompt.rs` — No query-path compression
 - `crates/mem-core/src/optimizer/mod.rs` — Optimizer available for metrics only
 - No changes required
 ## Status
 ✅ **Complete**
 This task represents "no work needed" because the architecture was corrected upfront:

 # M8.3 — Query optimizer: context construction + strategy routing
 | Field | Value |

 | Phase | M8 — Hybrid Search |
 | Size | M — 1–2 days |
 | Status | ✅ COMPLETE |
 | Flags | — |
 | Spec | inlined below |

 ## Goal
 Build a `QueryOptimizer` that analyses a raw user query and produces a `QueryContext` — normalised text, extracted entities, classified question type, and a routed `SearchStrategy`. This runs **before** any database call and determines which engines to use.
 ## Design
 **6-stage pipeline:**
 1. **Normalize** — lowercase, trim, collapse whitespace.
 2. **Tokenize** — split on whitespace.
 3. **Extract entities** — detect years (YYYY), quoted phrases (`"exact"`), tags (`#`, `@`).
 4. **Analyse characteristics** — boolean flags: `has_special_syntax`, `has_date_filters`, `has_negation`.
 5. **Classify question type** — one of: `Factual`, `Procedural`, `Comparative`, `Troubleshooting`, `Navigational`, `Open`.
 6. **Route** — pick `SearchStrategy` with a confidence score (0.0–1.0).
 **Routing rules:**
 - Token count < 3 → `LexicalOnly` (BM25 handles keywords better than embeddings).
 - Special syntax (`#tag`, `@mention`, `"phrase"`) → `LexicalOnly` (preserve exact tokens).
 - Date filters present → `LexicalFirst` (narrow by date in OpenSearch, rerank in pgvector).
 - Procedural / Troubleshooting → `Hybrid` (need both exact errors + semantic understanding).
 - Navigational → `LexicalFirst` (finding specific docs).
 - Default → `Hybrid`.
 **Output struct:**
 ```rust
 pub struct QueryContext {
    pub raw_query: String,
    pub normalized_query: String,
    pub tokens: Vec<String>,
    pub entities: HashMap<String, String>,
    pub embedding: Option<Vec<f32>>,  // filled later by worker
    pub token_count: usize,
    pub has_special_syntax: bool,
    pub has_date_filters: bool,
    pub has_negation: bool,
    pub question_type: QuestionType,
    pub search_strategy: SearchStrategy,
    pub confidence: f32,
 }
 ```
 ## Steps
 1. Implement `QueryOptimizer` with `optimize_query(&str) -> Result<QueryContext>`.
 2. Implement each stage as a private method.
 3. Write unit tests for every routing rule (≥15 tests).
 4. No async, no IO, no dependencies beyond std. Pure logic.
 ## Acceptance
 1. `optimize_query("fix port")` → `LexicalOnly`, confidence ≥ 0.7.
 2. `optimize_query("How do I fix kubernetes port 8080?")` → `Hybrid`, `Procedural`, confidence ≥ 0.9.
 3. `optimize_query("#networking @devops policy")` → `LexicalOnly`, `has_special_syntax=true`.
 4. `optimize_query("deployment failures in 2024")` → `LexicalFirst`, `has_date_filters=true`, entity `year=2024`.
 5. `optimize_query("Compare Docker and Kubernetes")` → `Hybrid`, `Comparative`.
 6. All 15+ tests pass.
 ## Verify
 ```bash
 cargo test -p mem-cli query_optimizer:: -- --nocapture
 ```
 **False pass:** Routing always returns `Hybrid` regardless of input. Check the short-query and special-syntax tests specifically — they must return non-Hybrid strategies.
 ## Artifacts
 - `crates/mem-cli/src/query_optimizer.rs` (exists, needs cleanup + test fixes)

 # M8.4 — Reciprocal Rank Fusion engine
 | Field | Value |
 |---|---|
 | Phase | M8 — Hybrid Search |
 | Size | S — 0.5–1 day |
 | Status | ✅ COMPLETE |
 | Flags | — |
 | Spec | inlined below |
 | Blocks | M8.5 |
 | Depends | — (pure logic, no infra dependency) |
 ## Goal
 Implement Reciprocal Rank Fusion (RRF) that merges two ranked lists from different scoring distributions into a single ranked list. No parameter tuning required.
 ## Why RRF, not weighted linear
 pgvector returns cosine similarity in `[0.0, 1.0]`. OpenSearch BM25 returns unbounded scores in `[0, 50+]`. These distributions are incomparable.
 **Weighted linear (0.6 * sem + 0.4 * lex)** requires min-max normalisation, which is fragile: one outlier score compresses all other scores to near-zero. It also requires choosing weights, which requires labelled data we don't have yet.
 **RRF** ignores score magnitudes entirely. It uses only **rank positions**: the document that appears first in a list gets rank 1, second gets rank 2, etc. The formula is:
 ```
 RRF_score(d) = Σ  1 / (k + rank_i(d))
              lists
 ```
 Where `k = 60` is a constant (academic standard, Cormack et al. 2009). A document in rank 1 of both lists gets `1/61 + 1/61 = 0.0328`. A document in rank 1 of only one list gets `1/61 = 0.0164`. The first always outranks the second, regardless of original score magnitudes.
 ## Design
 ```rust
 pub struct RRFConfig {
    pub k: f32,            // 60.0 (constant, don't tune)
    pub retrieve_k: usize, // 50 (top-K from each engine)
    pub final_k: usize,    // 10 (return top-K)
 }
 pub struct RRFFusion { config: RRFConfig }
 impl RRFFusion {
    pub fn fuse(
        &self,
        semantic: Vec<(String, f32)>,  // (chunk_id, score) — sorted by score desc
        lexical: Vec<(String, f32)>,
    ) -> Vec<(String, f32)>;           // (chunk_id, rrf_score) — sorted desc, truncated
 }
 ```
 **Invariants:**
 - Input lists must be pre-sorted by score descending (rank = position).
 - Output is sorted by RRF score descending.
 - Output length ≤ `final_k`.
 - A document appearing in both lists always outranks one appearing in only one (given same rank positions).
 ## Steps
 1. Implement `RRFFusion::fuse()`.
 2. Implement `RRFFusion::normalize_scores()` as utility (for optional weighted-linear fallback).
 3. Write tests: basic fusion, single-engine input, identical lists, disjoint lists, empty inputs.
 ## Acceptance
 1. `fuse([(a,0.9),(b,0.8)], [(a,8.0),(c,7.0)])` → `a` is rank 1 (appears in both lists).
 2. `fuse([(a,0.9)], [])` → `a` is rank 1 with score `1/61`.
 3. `fuse([], [])` → empty result.
 4. `fuse([(a,0.9),(b,0.8)], [(b,8.0),(a,7.0)])` → `a` and `b` have equal RRF scores (both appear in both at same combined rank sum). Either order is acceptable.
 5. Output length never exceeds `final_k`.
 ## Verify
 ```bash
 cargo test -p mem-cli rrf -- --nocapture
 ```
 **False pass:** Fusion returns results but sorted by original score, not RRF score. Verify by checking that a document ranked #3 in semantic but #1 in lexical outranks a document ranked #1 in semantic but absent from lexical.

 # M8.5 — Hybrid query worker: parallel retrieval + fusion
 | Field | Value |
 |---|---|
 | Phase | M8 — Hybrid Search |
 | Size | L — 2–3 days |
 | Status | ✅ COMPLETE |
 | Flags | — |
 | Spec | inlined below |
 | Blocks | M8.6, M8.7 |
 | Depends | M8.1 (OpenSearch running), M8.2 (dual-write), M8.3 (query optimizer), M8.4 (RRF) |
 ## Goal
 `HybridQueryWorker` orchestrates parallel retrieval from pgvector and OpenSearch, applies RRF fusion, and returns ranked results with score breakdown and latency metrics. It replaces `QueryWorker` as the primary query engine behind `GET /memory/query`.
 ## Design
 **Execution flow:**
 1. Call `QueryOptimizer::optimize_query()` → get `QueryContext` with `SearchStrategy`.
 2. Generate embedding via `EmbeddingsClient::embed()`.
 3. Execute strategy:
   - **Hybrid:** `tokio::try_join!` pgvector top-50 + OpenSearch top-50. Fuse with RRF.
   - **LexicalFirst:** OpenSearch top-200 → extract IDs → pgvector `WHERE id IN (...)` top-10.
   - **SemanticOnly:** pgvector top-50 (fallback if OpenSearch unavailable).
   - **LexicalOnly:** OpenSearch top-50 (fallback if embedding model unavailable).
 4. Build response with score breakdown.
 **Critical: use actual VectorStore API.**
 The existing `VectorStore` exposes `search_l1(project, &embedding, limit)` and `search_l2(project, &embedding)`. The worker must call these — not invented methods.
 For the cascading strategy (`LexicalFirst`), a new `search_l1_by_ids(project, &embedding, limit, &[chunk_id])` method is needed on `VectorStore`. This is a filtered pgvector query:
 ```sql
 SELECT id, 1 - (embedding <=> $1) as score, text, source
 FROM chunks
 WHERE project = $2 AND id = ANY($3)
 ORDER BY embedding <=> $1
 LIMIT $4
 ```
 **OpenSearch query:**
 ```json
 {
  "size": 50,
  "query": {
    "bool": {
      "must": [{
        "multi_match": {
          "query": "...",
          "fields": ["content^2", "section_title^1.5", "breadcrumb", "source"],
          "type": "best_fields",
          "fuzziness": "AUTO"
        }
      }],
      "filter": [
        {"term": {"project_id": "..."}},
        {"terms": {"level": ["L0", "L1", "L2"]}}
      ]
    }
  }
 }
 ```
 **Response struct:**
 ```rust
 pub struct HybridQueryResponse {
    pub query: String,
    pub project: String,
    pub search_strategy: String,
    pub results: Vec<HybridQueryResult>,
    pub metrics: QueryMetrics,
 }
 pub struct HybridQueryResult {
    pub id: String,
    pub text: String,
    pub source: String,
    pub level: String,
    pub breadcrumb: Vec<String>,
    pub final_score: f32,
    pub semantic_rank: Option<usize>,
    pub lexical_rank: Option<usize>,
    pub fusion_method: String,
 }
 pub struct QueryMetrics {
    pub total_time_ms: u128,
    pub semantic_time_ms: Option<u128>,
    pub lexical_time_ms: Option<u128>,
    pub fusion_time_ms: u128,
    pub semantic_candidates: Option<usize>,
    pub lexical_candidates: Option<usize>,
    pub final_count: usize,
 }
 ```
 ## Steps
 1. Add `search_l1_by_ids()` to `VectorStore` (new SQL query with `id = ANY($3)`).
 2. Make `OpenSearchClient::lexical_search()` public.
 3. Implement `HybridQueryWorker::new()` taking `VectorStore`, `EmbeddingsClient`, `Option<OpenSearchClient>`.
 4. Implement `query()` method with strategy dispatch.
 5. Implement `retrieve_hybrid()` using `tokio::try_join!`.
 6. Implement `retrieve_cascading()` (2-stage).
 7. Implement fallback methods (`retrieve_semantic()`, `retrieve_lexical()`).
 8. Wire RRF fusion into the result pipeline.
 9. Build response with per-result rank tracking.
 10. Write integration tests with mock VectorStore + mock OpenSearch.
 ## Acceptance
 1. Hybrid query returns results from **both** engines — check `semantic_rank` and `lexical_rank` are both `Some` for documents appearing in both lists.
 2. Cascading query's pgvector call receives only IDs from the OpenSearch narrowing step — verify with query log or mock.
 3. If `OpenSearchClient` is `None`, strategy automatically falls back to `SemanticOnly`.
 4. If embedding generation fails, strategy falls back to `LexicalOnly` (if OpenSearch available) or returns error.
 5. `metrics.total_time_ms` is populated and < 500ms for test fixtures.
 6. `metrics.semantic_time_ms` and `lexical_time_ms` are roughly equal (parallel execution, not serial).
 7. Results are sorted by `final_score` descending.
 8. `final_count` ≤ `RRFConfig.final_k`.
 ## Verify
 ```bash
 cargo test -p mem-cli hybrid_query -- --nocapture
 ```
 **False pass:** Worker always returns semantic-only results even when strategy is `Hybrid`. Check by asserting `lexical_rank.is_some()` on at least one result when OpenSearch is configured. Another false pass: serial execution disguised as parallel — assert `max(semantic_time_ms, lexical_time_ms) ≈ total - fusion_time_ms`, not `sum`.

 # M8.6 — Upgrade GET /memory/query to hybrid with fallback
 | Field | Value |

 | Size | M — 1–2 days |
 | Status | ✅ COMPLETE |
 | Flags | — |
 | Spec | inlined below |
 | Blocks | M8.8, M8.9 |
 | Depends | M8.3, M8.4 (query optimizer, RRF fusion complete) |
 ## Goal
 Replace the `QueryWorker` call in `GET /memory/query` with `HybridQueryWorker`. Add `?method=` parameter for explicit strategy override. Implement fallback chain: hybrid → semantic → error.
 ## Design
 **Updated request:**
 ```
 GET /memory/query?query=...&project=...&limit=10&method=hybrid
 Authorization: Bearer <JWT>
 ```
 New parameter:
 - `method` (optional) — `hybrid` (default), `semantic`, `lexical`. If omitted, `QueryOptimizer` decides.
 **Handler logic:**
 ```rust
 async fn query_handler(...) -> HttpResponse {
    let (claims, token) = validate_auth(...)?;
    check_capability(&claims, "memory:read")?;
    check_rate_limit(&claims, &state, "/memory/query")?;
    let method_override = query.get("method").map(|m| match m.as_str() {
        "semantic" => SearchStrategy::SemanticOnly,
        "lexical" => SearchStrategy::LexicalOnly,
        _ => SearchStrategy::Hybrid,  // includes "hybrid" and unknown values
    });
    // Try hybrid worker first
    if let Some(ref hybrid) = state.hybrid_query_worker {
        match hybrid.query(&project, &question, limit, &token, method_override).await {
            Ok(response) => return HttpResponse::Ok().json(response),
            Err(e) => {
                tracing::warn!("hybrid query failed, falling back: {}", e);
            }
        }
    }
    // Fallback: existing semantic-only worker
    match state.query_worker.query(&project, &question, Some(limit)).await {
        Ok(results) => HttpResponse::Ok().json(json!({
            "query": question,
            "project": project,
            "search_strategy": "semantic_fallback",
            "results": results,
        })),
        Err(e) => HttpResponse::InternalServerError().json(json!({"error": "query_failed"})),
    }
 }
 ```
 **AppState change:**
 ```rust
 pub struct AppState {
    // ... existing fields ...
    pub hybrid_query_worker: Option<Arc<HybridQueryWorker>>,  // None if OpenSearch not configured
 }
 ```
 Constructed in `start_server()`:
 ```rust
 let hybrid = if std::env::var("OPENSEARCH_HOSTS").is_ok() {
    let os_client = OpenSearchClient::new(hosts);
    Some(Arc::new(HybridQueryWorker::new(vector_store, embeddings, Some(Arc::new(os_client)))))
 } else {
    // No OpenSearch configured — hybrid worker without lexical
    Some(Arc::new(HybridQueryWorker::new(vector_store, embeddings, None)))
 };
 ```
 **Backward compatibility:** If `OPENSEARCH_HOSTS` is not set, the worker still works but always uses `SemanticOnly`. Existing clients see the same results with an added `search_strategy` field.
 ## Steps
 1. Add `hybrid_query_worker` field to `AppState`.
 2. Construct `HybridQueryWorker` in `start_server()`, gated on `OPENSEARCH_HOSTS` env.
 3. Update `query_handler()` with method override + fallback chain.
 4. Add `?method=` query parameter parsing.
 5. Update response format to include `search_strategy` and `metrics`.
 6. Write integration test: query with `method=hybrid`, verify response has `metrics`.
 7. Write integration test: query without OpenSearch, verify fallback to semantic.
 ## Acceptance
 1. `GET /memory/query?query=test&project=p` returns `"search_strategy": "Hybrid"` when OpenSearch configured.
 2. `GET /memory/query?query=test&project=p&method=semantic` forces semantic-only, response says `"search_strategy": "SemanticOnly"`.
 3. If OpenSearch is down, query still succeeds with `"search_strategy": "semantic_fallback"`.
 4. Response includes `metrics` block with timing data.
 5. Existing clients that don't send `method` param get the same results as before (backward compat).
 6. JWT token is forwarded to OpenSearch (not a new token, not admin credentials).
 ## Verify
 ```bash
 # With OpenSearch running
 curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  "http://localhost:8080/memory/query?query=kubernetes+port&project=poimen" | jq .search_strategy
 # Should output: "Hybrid"
 # Force semantic
 curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  "http://localhost:8080/memory/query?query=kubernetes+port&project=poimen&method=semantic" | jq .search_strategy
 # Should output: "SemanticOnly"
 # Kill OpenSearch, retry
 curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  "http://localhost:8080/memory/query?query=kubernetes+port&project=poimen" | jq .search_strategy
 # Should output: "semantic_fallback"
 ```
 **False pass:** Handler catches the hybrid error silently and always falls back to semantic — user never sees hybrid results even when OpenSearch is healthy. Assert that with OpenSearch up, `metrics.lexical_candidates` is `Some(n)` where `n > 0`.

 # M8.7 — Index tuning: HNSW parameters + OpenSearch analyzers
 | Field | Value |
 |---|---|
 | Phase | M8 — Hybrid Search |
 | Size | M — 1–2 days |
 | Status | ✅ COMPLETE |
 | Flags | — |
 | Spec | inlined below |
 | Blocks | M8.9 |
 | Depends | M8.2 (data in both stores), M8.5 (can query both stores) |
 ## Goal
 Tune pgvector index parameters and OpenSearch analyzers for retrieval accuracy. Measure baseline NDCG before and after tuning. This is engineering, not research — change one parameter, measure, keep or revert.
 ## Design
 ### pgvector tuning
 **Current:** `ivfflat` index with default `lists`.
 **Target:** Switch to `hnsw` index (pgvector 0.5.0+). HNSW provides better recall than IVFFlat at the cost of slower index builds and more memory.
 ```sql
 -- Drop old index
 DROP INDEX IF EXISTS chunks_embedding_idx;
 -- Create HNSW index
 CREATE INDEX chunks_embedding_hnsw_idx
 ON chunks USING hnsw (embedding vector_cosine_ops)
 WITH (m = 16, ef_construction = 64);
 ```
 Parameters:
 - `m = 16` — max connections per node (default 16, higher = better recall, more memory).
 - `ef_construction = 64` — build-time search width (default 64, higher = better recall, slower build).
 - `ef_search = 40` — query-time search width (set via `SET hnsw.ef_search = 40`).
 **Tuning approach:**
 1. Baseline: measure recall@50 with IVFFlat.
 2. Switch to HNSW with defaults.
 3. Measure recall@50 again.
 4. If recall@50 ≥ 0.95, keep defaults. Otherwise increase `ef_construction` to 128.
 ### OpenSearch tuning
 **Analyzer changes:**
 - Add `edge_ngram` tokenizer for typo tolerance on `content` field.
 - Add `synonym` filter for common abbreviations: `k8s → kubernetes`, `db → database`, `cfg → config`.
 - Keep `standard` analyzer as primary, add `search_analyzer` for queries.
 **Field boost tuning:**
 - `content^2.0` (default — most important).
 - `section_title^1.8` (headings are very relevant).
 - `source^1.0` (file paths are useful but shouldn't dominate).
 - `breadcrumb^0.8` (context, not content).
 **BM25 parameters:**
 - `k1 = 1.2` (term frequency saturation — default is fine).
 - `b = 0.75` (length normalization — default is fine).
 - Don't tune these unless baseline NDCG < 0.7.
 ## Steps
 1. Create test query set: 20 queries with known-relevant documents.
 2. Measure baseline NDCG@10 for pgvector (semantic-only) and OpenSearch (lexical-only).
 3. Switch pgvector from IVFFlat to HNSW. Measure NDCG@10 again.
 4. Update OpenSearch index template with synonym filter + edge_ngram. Reindex. Measure.
 5. Record all measurements in `docs/INDEX_TUNING_RESULTS.md`.
 6. Keep changes that improve NDCG. Revert changes that don't.
 ## Acceptance
 1. pgvector uses HNSW index (verify with `\d+ chunks` in psql).
 2. OpenSearch index template includes synonym filter.
 3. NDCG@10 measurements recorded for before/after each change.
 4. No regression: post-tuning NDCG ≥ pre-tuning NDCG for both engines.
 5. pgvector query latency < 150ms (p95) after HNSW switch.
 6. OpenSearch query latency < 100ms (p95) after analyzer changes.
 ## Verify
 ```bash
 # Check pgvector index type
 psql -c "\d+ chunks" | grep hnsw
 # Check OpenSearch analyzer
 curl -k -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  https://opensearch-internal:9200/vault-test/_settings | jq '.*.settings.index.analysis'
 # Run NDCG measurement
 cargo run -- bench-search --queries fixtures/search_queries.yaml --output docs/INDEX_TUNING_RESULTS.md
 ```
 **False pass:** HNSW index created but `ef_search` set to 1, making recall worse than IVFFlat. Check recall@50 explicitly — it should be ≥ 0.95.
 ## Artifacts
 - SQL migration (drop IVFFlat, create HNSW)
 - Updated OpenSearch index template
 - `docs/INDEX_TUNING_RESULTS.md` (measurements)
 - `fixtures/search_queries.yaml` (test query set)

 ## Goal
 Build a repeatable benchmark harness that measures retrieval accuracy. Run it against semantic-only, lexical-only, and hybrid strategies. Produce a comparison table that proves hybrid is better (or shows where it isn't).
 ## Design
 **Test fixture format:**
 ```yaml
 # fixtures/search_queries.yaml
 queries:
  - id: q1
    text: "How do I fix kubernetes port 8080 conflict?"
    relevant_docs: ["runbooks/networking.md"]
    category: troubleshooting
  - id: q2

    category: factual
  - id: q3
    text: "#networking firewall rules"
    relevant_docs: ["docs/network-policies.md"]
    category: navigational
 ```
 **Metrics implemented:**
 - **NDCG@10** — Are relevant docs ranked near the top? (0.0 worst, 1.0 perfect).
 - **MRR** — How early is the first relevant doc? (1/rank of first hit).
 - **Precision@5** — What fraction of top-5 results are relevant?
 - **Recall@10** — What fraction of all relevant docs appear in top-10?
 **Benchmark runner:**
 ```rust
 pub struct BenchmarkResult {
    pub strategy: String,          // "hybrid", "semantic", "lexical"
    pub avg_ndcg: f32,
    pub avg_mrr: f32,
    pub avg_precision_at_5: f32,
    pub avg_recall_at_10: f32,
    pub avg_latency_ms: f32,
    pub per_query: Vec<QueryBenchmark>,
 }
 ```
 **Output:** Markdown table written to `docs/BENCHMARK_RESULTS.md`.
 ```markdown
 | Strategy | NDCG@10 | MRR | P@5 | R@10 | Latency (ms) |
 |----------|---------|-----|-----|------|-------------|
 | semantic | 0.72 | 0.65 | 0.60 | 0.75 | 95 |
 | lexical | 0.68 | 0.70 | 0.55 | 0.70 | 62 |
 | hybrid | 0.87 | 0.82 | 0.78 | 0.90 | 210 |
 ```
 ## Steps
 1. Create `fixtures/search_queries.yaml` with ≥ 20 queries across categories.
 2. Ingest corresponding test documents into both stores.
 3. Implement `BenchmarkRunner` that:
   a. Loads fixture file.
   b. Runs each query against each strategy.
   c. Computes NDCG, MRR, Precision, Recall per query.
   d. Averages across queries.
   e. Writes results to markdown.
 4. Implement as CLI command: `cargo run -- bench-search --queries <path> --output <path>`.
 5. Run benchmarks. Record results.
 ## Acceptance
 1. Benchmark runs to completion on 20+ queries × 3 strategies = 60+ query executions.
 2. Output markdown table has all 5 columns populated.
 3. Hybrid NDCG@10 ≥ max(semantic NDCG, lexical NDCG) — hybrid must not be worse than best single engine.
 4. Per-query results show which categories benefit most from hybrid (expected: troubleshooting, procedural).
 5. If hybrid is worse on any category, document why and whether it matters.
 ## Verify
 ```bash
 cargo run -- bench-search \
  --queries fixtures/search_queries.yaml \
  --output docs/BENCHMARK_RESULTS.md
 cat docs/BENCHMARK_RESULTS.md
 ```
 **False pass:** Benchmark uses the same documents for queries and ground truth (trivial exact match). Ensure queries use **natural language** and ground truth docs use **technical content** — the match should be semantic, not string equality.

 Prove the hybrid search system works end-to-end and is measurably better than semantic-only. This gate verifies the **composition** — individual tasks pass their own tests, but only the gate proves they compose correctly.
 ## Properties to verify
 ### P1: Dual-write consistency
 Every chunk in pgvector has a corresponding document in OpenSearch with the same ID, and vice versa. Zero orphans.
 ```sql
 -- pgvector IDs not in OpenSearch
 SELECT id FROM chunks WHERE opensearch_pending = true;
 -- Must return 0 rows (after background retry has run)
 ```
 ```bash
 # OpenSearch document count must equal pgvector chunk count for same project
 PG_COUNT=$(psql -t -c "SELECT count(*) FROM chunks WHERE project='test'")
 OS_COUNT=$(curl -sk "https://opensearch:9200/vault-test/_count" | jq .count)
 # PG_COUNT == OS_COUNT
 ```
 ### P2: Hybrid outperforms single-engine
 From `docs/BENCHMARK_RESULTS.md`:
 - Hybrid NDCG@10 > semantic-only NDCG@10.
 - Hybrid NDCG@10 > lexical-only NDCG@10.
 - If this fails for a specific query category, it must be documented with reasoning.
 ### P3: Fallback works under failure
 1. Stop OpenSearch. Query endpoint still responds with semantic results.
 2. Start OpenSearch. Query endpoint returns hybrid results.
 3. Response `search_strategy` field accurately reports which mode was used.
 ### P4: JWT auth enforced end-to-end
 1. Query without token → 401.
 2. Query with valid token → 200.
 3. OpenSearch rejects requests from non-Memory-Service pods (NetworkPolicy).
 4. JWT token forwarded from Memory Service to OpenSearch (not admin credentials).
 ### P5: No regression on existing tests
 All pre-existing tests still pass. `cargo test` green. No `#[ignore]` added in M8.
 ### P6: Latency budget met
 - Hybrid query: p95 < 500ms.
 - Semantic-only query: p95 < 200ms (must not regress from adding hybrid path).
 - Fallback to semantic: p95 < 250ms (minimal overhead from failed OpenSearch attempt).
 ## Gate test
 ```bash
 #!/bin/bash
 set -euo pipefail
 echo "=== M8 Gate: Hybrid Search ==="
 # P5: All tests pass
 cargo test 2>&1 | tail -1
 # Expected: test result: ok. X passed; 0 failed
 # P1: Dual-write consistency
 PG=$(psql -t -c "SELECT count(*) FROM chunks WHERE project='test' AND opensearch_pending=false")
 OS=$(curl -sk "https://opensearch:9200/vault-test/_count" | jq .count)
 [ "$PG" -eq "$OS" ] && echo "P1 PASS: $PG chunks in both stores" || echo "P1 FAIL: pg=$PG os=$OS"
 # P2: Hybrid > single-engine
 grep -A1 "hybrid" docs/BENCHMARK_RESULTS.md | grep -oP '[\d.]+' | head -1
 # Must be highest NDCG in the table
 # P3: Fallback
 kubectl scale statefulset/opensearch -n poimen --replicas=0
 sleep 5
 STRATEGY=$(curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  "http://localhost:8080/memory/query?query=test&project=test" | jq -r .search_strategy)
 [ "$STRATEGY" = "semantic_fallback" ] && echo "P3 PASS: fallback works" || echo "P3 FAIL: $STRATEGY"
 kubectl scale statefulset/opensearch -n poimen --replicas=2
 sleep 30
 STRATEGY=$(curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  "http://localhost:8080/memory/query?query=test&project=test" | jq -r .search_strategy)
 [ "$STRATEGY" = "Hybrid" ] && echo "P3 PASS: hybrid restored" || echo "P3 FAIL: $STRATEGY"
 # P4: Auth
 STATUS=$(curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}' "http://localhost:8080/memory/query?query=test&project=test")
 [ "$STATUS" = "401" ] && echo "P4 PASS: no-auth rejected" || echo "P4 FAIL: $STATUS"
 echo "=== M8 Gate Complete ==="
 ```
 ## Acceptance
 All six properties pass. If P2 fails (hybrid not better), the gate does NOT pass — go back and fix M8.7 (index tuning) or M8.4 (fusion algorithm).
 ## False passes to check
 1. **P1 looks green but IDs don't match.** Run a JOIN, not just count comparison.
 2. **P3 looks green but fallback latency is 30s** (timeout, not fast fail). Check p95 < 250ms.
 3. **P5 looks green but test count dropped.** Compare `cargo test 2>&1 | grep 'test result'` against last known count (currently 239+).
