Four temperatures, three runs each, on the 36-case talk fixture. 0.40 leads the
mean by 5.6 points and the spread inside one temperature is 11, so three runs
cannot tell the effect from the noise. The default stays 0.7.
The result worth having is not about temperature. Sixty failures across the
twelve runs are one parse error, every one of them in the reply family, two of
them in all twelve runs. That is deterministic and caps the fixture at 30/36.
Filed as V-537.
Praxis reach is zero on all twelve cases under both embedders, and it is
structurally impossible rather than merely weak: handlePraxisAct dispatches
on fn equality, and no praxis alias can ever enter the fn slot, because that
slot is filled from the deployment's tool allowlist.
Hexis reach is 9/10. All three services are up and answer; both praxis feeds
are empty, so the gap is entirely on Maven's side of the wire.
The swap itself already landed: deploy loads
models/embedder/multilingual-e5-small/model_quantized.onnx, and
onnxembedder.go grew EmbedQuery/EmbedPassage with the query:/passage:
prefixes the model was trained with. What was missing is the half of #371
that says "re-run make eval-recall and compare against the recorded numbers",
so nothing in the repo says whether it worked.
It worked, on every axis at once. recall@1 60.0% → 70.4%, recall@3 80.0% →
85.2%, answered after the gate 48.0% → 63.0%, false recall 1/5 → 0/5, and
latency p50 59ms → 23ms because the quantized file is 118MB against the 470MB
fp32 one the old config loaded. The guitar-chords note no longer beats the
docker-logs note.
One premise of the task did not come true and the new doc says so. #371
expected a better retriever to separate the score distributions and make
query_min_score tunable. It did not: right-first top-1 runs 0.791-0.890 and
must-stay-silent runs 0.795-0.835, still overlapping, just higher and
tighter. The margin separates them instead — 0.024 median against 0.002 — and
0.008 is the knee where all five silent cases are silenced at no cost. The
score gate is close to inert now; the margin is the live dial. Neither is
changed here, since #412 is where a sweep belongs.
docs/evals/2026-08-04-recall-e5-small.md is the dated measurement.
rearchitecture.md's "upgrade MiniLM → bge-m3 later" is now done and says so,
CLAUDE.md names the retriever and the prefix rule where it already promises
the embedder never leaves homesrv, and the Makefile comment points at this
eval instead of the one that asked for the swap.

#496 asked to skip the veto when the question and the hit are in
different scripts, so an English question stops losing a Russian note.
Measured first: the fixture has no cross-language case, and en-hard-024
is an English question against an English note. Both proposed fixes are
no-ops.
What the veto actually does on the fixture, with the real embedder: it
costs en-hard-024 and buys ru-silent-029. Pass count is 22/32 either
way; false recall is 0/5 with it and 1/5 without. The two cases are one
lexical class, so no rule cheap enough for RecallAllowed separates them.
Accepts the loss and pins both sides in a test.

The forwarded log named the cause in one line: the prompt cache limit
defaults to 8192 MiB. llama-server saves the full KV state of every idle
slot it evicts, 112 kiB per token, so RSS climbed about 170MB per
distinct prompt until the deployed server held 7.9GB for a 1.1GB model.
Measured on homesrv today, uncapped versus `--cache-ram 512`: RSS
plateaus at 932MB from the fourth distinct prompt instead of climbing.
The task's leading guess was wrong. `-ngl 99` costs almost no RSS,
because RADV keeps device memory outside the process. Numbers and method
in docs/evals/2026-08-03-llama-prompt-cache.md.
`-c 4096` is untouched. The knob is `phraser.cache_ram_mib`, unset means
512, negative passes no flag for a llama-server too old to know it.
The deploy still runs the old image, so the box keeps its 8 GiB default
until mavend is rebuilt.

"что я говорил про бэкапы?" is his data by definition, and nothing outside the
box has ever heard him say anything. The boundary matched possession words only,
so the question walked past it into SearXNG and came back answered out of a Habr
article about somebody else's backups.
A speech-verb marker class was written first and dropped. Russian gives every
verb a dozen surface forms and the "как я говорил, ..." preamble list has no end,
so each form the lexicon missed was one more question reaching the world, and a
missing verb looks exactly like no bug.
The boundary now embeds two frozen seed sets and scores the turn's own query
vector, already computed upstream, against both. Nearest side wins. The
possession markers stay as the offline floor for a handler with no embedder.
19/19 held-out utterances correct against multilingual-e5-small; see
docs/evals/2026-08-03-personal-boundary.md. The live probe on the deployed box is
not done.

Both fixtures, run from homesrv across the LAN with the proxy env stripped.
Routing: 84.4% full / 93.5% intent-only at p50 329ms through the cascade, against
72.7% / 77.9% at p50 0.80-1.04s for Qwen3-1.7B. Talk: 25/27 against 20/27, with
knowledge 9/9. Nudges 15/15. Settles #485's first assumption by measurement.

Seventeen markdown files at the repo root, twelve of them dated one-shot
reports sitting next to CLAUDE.md. That is why stale docs read as
current: nothing in the path said which was which.
Root now keeps CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md. Living docs move under docs/
and carry a Last verified line. Dated measurements move to docs/evals/
ISO-prefixed, and are never edited after the day, so a newer number is
a new file. The senior review moves to docs/archive/.
Every reference was rewritten across markdown, Go comments, the Makefile
and the recall fixture. The touched Go packages still build.
