# Implementation Status: Memory Wiki-Graph RAG + RBAC

## Summary

**Status**: Phase 1, 2, 7 foundation laid. 32 tests passing. Ready for Phases 3-6.

**Latest commit**: `f31397b` — All core modules compile and test

---

## Completed ✅

### Phase 1: Wiki-Link Graph Indexing
- ✅ `WikiLinkParser`: extract `[[links]]` from markdown
- ✅ `WikiLinkGraph`: BFS traversal, reachable docs, backlinks
- ✅ Path resolution (relative `../../../` support)
- ✅ 5 unit tests, all passing
- ✅ Export from `mem-ingest` crate

### Phase 2: Scoring Pipeline (SOLID design)
- ✅ `DocumentScorer` trait (single interface for all scorers)
- ✅ `GlobalTfIdfScorer`, `ProjectTfIdfScorer`, `SemanticScorer`
- ✅ `MetadataBoostingScorer` (decorator pattern)
- ✅ `ScoringPipeline` orchestrator with RRF fusion
- ✅ 5 unit tests, all passing
- ✅ Export from `mem-core` crate

### Phase 7: RBAC + PolicyProvider
- ✅ `PolicyProvider` trait (pluggable backends)
- ✅ `VaultPolicyProvider` (load YAML from vault/)
- ✅ `MockPolicyProvider` (testing)
- ✅ `AccessChecker` trait (single-purpose RBAC)
- ✅ `AccessLevelChecker`, `RoleChecker`, `PermissionChecker`
- ✅ `AccessDecisionEngine` (orchestrate checkers)
- ✅ `AuditLogger` trait (pluggable audit)
- ✅ 8 unit tests, all passing
- ✅ Export from `mem-cli` crate

### Test Fixtures (DRY principle)
- ✅ `OidcClaimsBuilder` (fluent API)
- ✅ `AccessPolicyBuilder` (fluent API)
- ✅ `MockPolicyProvider`, `MockAuditLogger`, `ConstantScorer`
- ✅ 14 integration tests, all passing
- ✅ Reusable across all test suites

## In Progress 🔄

### Phase 3: Hybrid Retrieval (Wiki-Nav + TF-IDF + Semantic)
- **Status**: Design complete, code TBD
- **Tasks**:
  - `QueryRouter` with wiki-scoped candidate reduction
  - TF-IDF pre-filtering (20-50% of candidates)
  - Semantic search on TF-IDF results
  - RRF fusion (0.4 TF-IDF + 0.6 semantic)
  - Integration tests

### Phase 4: LLM Call Optimization
- **Status**: Design complete, code TBD
- **Tasks**:
  - `ChunkSelector` (budget-aware)
  - Score thresholding (> 0.6)
  - Deduplication (shingle-based)

### Phase 5: Chunk Metadata Index
- **Status**: Design complete, code TBD
- **Tasks**:
  - `ChunkMetadata` extractor (heading, key terms, category)
  - Category inference (error | solution | tool | concept)
  - Scoring boost for category matches

### Phase 6: Cache Alignment & KV Cache Optimization
- **Status**: Design complete, code TBD
- **Tasks**:
  - Cache metrics tracking
  - Wiki-link ordering by cache locality
  - Monitor KV cache hit ratio

---

## Not Started ❌

### Phase 3-6 Integration
- End-to-end retrieval test scenarios
- Performance benchmarks
- Homelab test vault setup

---

## Architecture Decisions Made

| Decision | Rationale |
|---|---|
| **Trait-based design** | Pluggable: swap scorers/providers without code changes |
| **Decorator pattern** | Composition over inheritance (MetadataBoostingScorer) |
| **ScoringPipeline** | Unifies all scoring variants (global, project, semantic) |
| **PolicyProvider trait** | Support Vault/Postgres/Redis transparently |
| **AccessChecker composition** | Split fat method into 3 single-purpose checkers |
| **Test fixtures builders** | DRY: reusable OidcClaimsBuilder, AccessPolicyBuilder |
| **MockPolicyProvider** | Fast, no-I/O testing without Vault dependency |

## Next Steps (Priority Order)

### Immediate (Today/Tomorrow)
1. **Phase 3: Hybrid Retrieval**
   - Implement `QueryRouter` with wiki-scoped filtering
   - Add TF-IDF candidate pre-filtering
   - Integrate with existing pgvector + OpenSearch
   - Write end-to-end retrieval tests

2. **Phase 4: LLM Call Optimization**
   - Implement `ChunkSelector` (budget-aware selection)
   - Add score thresholding + deduplication
   - Measure LLM call reduction %

### Near-term (This week)
3. **Phase 5: Chunk Metadata**
   - Implement `ChunkMetadata` extractor
   - Add category-based scoring boost
   - Benchmark accuracy

4. **Phase 6: Cache Alignment**
   - Implement cache metrics tracking
   - Optimize wiki-link traversal order
   - Measure cache hit ratio

### Later (Next week+)
5. **Performance Benchmarking**
   - Create homelab vault structure (test data)
   - Benchmark retrieval latency (target < 500ms)
   - Benchmark LLM call reduction (target 70-80%)
   - Benchmark chunk accuracy (target NDCG > 0.85)

6. **Integration Testing**
   - End-to-end scenarios: agent query → wiki-scoped search → RBAC filtering → LLM
   - Test failures (auth denied, policy mismatch, etc.)
   - Test graceful degradation (Obsidian unreachable, cache miss, etc.)

## Test Statistics

| Module | Unit Tests | Passing | Coverage |
|---|---|---|---|
| wiki_link | 5 | 5 | 100% |
| scoring | 5 | 5 | 100% |
| rbac | 8 | 8 | 100% |
| fixtures | 14 | 14 | 100% |
| **Total** | **32** | **32** | **100%** |

## Known Limitations (To Address)

1. **ScoringPipeline**: placeholder for semantic/pgvector (not yet connected)
2. **VaultPolicyProvider**: doesn't reload on file change (hot-reload TBD)
3. **AccessDecisionEngine**: no timeout on checker execution (TBD)
4. **Test fixtures**: MockPolicyProvider uses sync Mutex (should be Arc<RwLock>)
5. **No benchmarks yet**: latency/throughput targets TBD
