Things arrive at Maven from eight directions — a relayed Android
notification on POST /api/ambient, mail candidates from mavmaild, RSS
items, changed pages from the crawler, zenmoney and wg reads from
mavpoll, CalDAV events, presence probes, meeting transcripts and image
descriptions. Each grew its own shape and its own log line, and nothing
could answer "what came in today, from where".
internal/event is that answer: a flat source-agnostic envelope (Source,
Kind, EntityIDs, Title, Body, Priority, OccurredAt, Payload) plus a
bounded in-memory journal. Both are pure — Publish and Normalize take
`now` as a parameter, so no clock read sits on a path a replay would
drive.
Adopting it did not touch eight callers, because every intake path
already converges on three ipc.CoreAPI methods: WriteFact, WriteNote and
CaptureTask. cmd/mavend/intake.go decorates that ONE interface, so
mavweb, mavcaldav, mavpoll, mavmaild and the in-core feed/crawl/capture/
vision workers publish envelopes without knowing events exist. The lone
exception is cmd/mavend/mail.go, which captures through the store
directly and now publishes explicitly.
Nothing dispatches on an event. It is a report that something arrived,
never an instruction to speak — "a feed item appeared" becoming a
notification is the nag this repo refuses. Digestion may read the
journal later; it will still go through internal/loop's rules and the
severity/presence routing table.
Read surface: ipc.MethodRecentEvents (AuthRead, daemon-cached like
TickTrace — a bare store cannot serve a ring) and a read-only /events
page in mavweb.
Production is unchanged when nobody is watching: a nil *event.Bus makes
Publish a no-op and newIntakeAPI returns the wrapped API untouched, so
config.intake_journal < 0 leaves no decorator on the call path at all.
The default is 512 entries; the "off unless configured" rule is for
capabilities that reach out, and a bounded in-memory log of writes core
already performed reaches nowhere.
Verified: make build, make test (go test -race) both clean. New tests
cover the envelope and ring (internal/event, 95.7%), the decorator's
invariants — a failed write publishes nothing, a deduped capture
publishes nothing, OccurredAt is the fact's Ts and not notice time — and
the /events page including escaping of feed-supplied titles.
Second half of the MCP client: the tools the manager discovers become rows in
the existing act allowlist instead of a parallel capability system.
An MCP tool is encoded in the columns that already exist — cmd
["mcp",<server>,<tool>], scope mcp:<server> — so no migration, and
ProposeTool/EnableTool/DisableTool, tool.Matcher and the confirm turn need no
changes. One branch in Executor.Exec routes such a row to the manager instead
of exec, and "mcp" is never run as a binary.
Discovery only ever PROPOSES. destructive comes from the inverse of the MCP
readOnlyHint, so a tool that does not promise to be read-only inherits the
confirm turn, and enabling stays on /tools behind step-up.
Voice args are positional and MCP args are named, so CallPositional binds only
what it can defend: no required properties runs bare, and a read-only tool with
exactly one required string or number gets the tail. Everything else refuses
with ErrNeedsArgs rather than guessing. The read-only condition was learned
against the live Vikunja server: update_task requires only task_id and takes
the rest as optional, so one guessed argument blanked the fields it did not
mention. A partially-filled write destroys what it omits, so a mutating tool
never receives a guessed argument.
Also: a read-only mcp_servers IPC method and an "MCP servers" card on /tools
showing transport, target and state, with the trust level of a local target
spelled out. There is deliberately no call-a-tool IPC method and no run button,
so mutation keeps exactly one path.
Vikunja #251
The plan answers "какие планы на сегодня?" by putting one day in order:
calendar events (with #126's ambient provenance carried through and hedged),
pending reminders, and one line per morning routine that still has items
outstanding. "что дальше?" trims what has already passed.
It lives in internal/morning, not in a parallel system, because it is the same
question the checklist asks at a different scale — the routine knows what is
missing from a window, the plan knows what the whole day holds, and both read
the same facts and the same idea of "today". BuildPlan is pure; tickLoop.dayPlan
is the impure half that reads the store.
It is not a nag. Nothing here fires, schedules or announces: the plan is built
only when asked, over IPC (day_plan) or on the existing /morning page.
Unprompted delivery stays with the morning nudge and the dispatcher's policy.
The query source sits before "calendar" in querySources because both match
"…на сегодня" and the plan's matcher is the more specific one; IsDayPlanQuery
matches whole words so "планёрка" (a meeting) is not read as a request for the
plan, and refuses any utterance naming another day, since the plan is built for
the clock's own day only.
Verified: make build and make test both exit 0; new tests cover plan ordering,
the checklist-only-what-is-left rule, other-day rejection, the RU rendering
against the persona checks, rest-of-day trimming, the source ordering, and the
matcher's refusals.
The digestion tick already runs the pattern detector over all recorded
events (67563ed) and writes a proposed_routines row. What was missing is
the other half of #247: a proposal that nobody is at the mic for reaches
nothing but the /routines page, so a pattern noticed at 03:00 is only
seen if he goes looking.
This wires the tick's proposals into the existing care-delivery path
rather than a second channel: sev1 nudge, loop.Gate, dispatcher, same
routing table as an accepted routine. Restraints, since a feature that
speaks unprompted is the easiest way to turn Maven into a nag:
- off unless configured — the new pattern_proposals block, absent by
default, and deploy/mavend.json ships notify: false;
- at most one announcement per tick however many patterns surfaced;
- at most one per cooldown (24h default) across all pairs;
- sev1, so quiet hours, away and snooze suppress it;
- suppressed means dropped, not queued — /routines still has it;
- once per pair for good, since proposed_routines is
UNIQUE(action, object) and the row survives dismissal.
The body is pattern.PhraseRoutine's literal Russian, not LLM-worded, so
an inferred routine cannot arrive describing something never observed.
Also raises pattern.MinEvents from 3 to 4 — the interval-quality item on
#43. Two intervals with a ±50% band is a coincidence with a mean, not a
pattern, and now that a scan of all history can announce itself the cost
of a false positive is a permanent dismissal of that pair.
Vikunja #281. The interruption policy promised four outcomes — deliver_now,
queue, digest, drop — but only three existed: a care candidate the restraint
gate suppressed for quiet hours / away / calendar-busy simply vanished in
loop.Tick's `continue`, with only the trace remembering why.
internal/morning turned out not to be the natural drain: it's a fixed
Item/FactKey checklist engine, not a generic message bundler, so gate-
suppressed nudge text has nowhere to plug into its evidence model. Built a
parallel (but small, reusing the outbox's shape) durable digest instead:
- internal/store: digest_entries table + EnqueueDigestEntry (dedupes by
rule+body, mirroring the delivery outbox's bodyHash), PendingDigestEntries,
ExpireStaleDigestEntries, DrainDigestEntries (mark, never delete — an
audit trail of what she actually said).
- internal/loop: DigestEligible(severity, blockedBy) is the pure boundary —
only genuine restraint blocks (quiet_hours/calendar_busy/presence) even
qualify (cooldown/snooze are not "suppression"); within care, Sev2 (break)
digests, Sev1 (water/meal — stale by the time anyone could resurface them)
drops. High severity never digests; alarms bypass the gate and deliver
unchanged, on purpose.
- cmd/mavend/tick.go: each tick scans ExplainTick's trace for eligible
blocked candidates, enqueues them, sweeps stale entries (24h expiry — the
care rules are daily-cadence, so anything older is describing a day
that's over), and drains the bundle only once the suppression reason has
actually cleared, capped at 3 spoken items plus a trailing count so a
digest can't turn into the exact nagging it was built to avoid.
Tests: store-level round-trip/restart-survival/dedupe/expiry/drain, loop-
level severity-boundary unit tests, and tick-level integration tests for
the drain-only-when-clear and never-digest-high-severity behavior.
detectPattern only ever fired as a side effect of a voice fact-write, so a
recurring pattern already sitting in history went unnoticed until he
happened to mention it again by voice — the opposite of proactive.
Split the pipeline: extraction (fact -> normalized event) stays where a fact
is written, in voice.go, since it's tied to that write regardless of who's
talking. Detection (events -> stable pattern -> proposed_routines row) moves
into shared code (patterns.go's detectAndPropose) that both the voice path
and the new tick.go:detectPatterns call. The tick runs it every cycle over
every action+object pair on record (store.DistinctEventPairs, added), so a
pattern gets noticed on the daemon's own schedule.
Idempotence and the dismiss-must-stick requirement turned out to already be
handled by the store, not something the tick needs to reinvent:
proposed_routines has UNIQUE(action, object) and CreateProposedRoutine does
ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING, and DismissProposedRoutine flips status in place
without deleting the row. So a pair already proposed, accepted, OR
dismissed is a silent no-op on every later tick — a dismissed pattern can
never resurface, and re-running the scan never spams the /routines page.
Kept the voice-path call (immediate spoken confirmation is a nice feature
UX-wise and is now redundant-but-harmless with the tick, since both paths
share the same guarded detectAndPropose).
Tick-side detection only ever writes a row; it does not notify, ring, or
speak, keeping Maven "not a nag, not autonomous" — the /routines page is
still the only place a proposal becomes visible, and only accepting it
starts producing nudges (fireAcceptedRoutines).
Also fixed the stale vikunja#46 reference in proposed_routines.go — the
TODO it named is what this commit does.

The tick loop now reads accepted routines from the store and nudges when
their interval has passed; accepting no longer builds a one-shot reminder.
Look at routine.DueAccepted for the schedule rule (no catch-up backlog) and
at fireAcceptedRoutines for the restraint gate — routines do not bypass it.

Data layer only. Migration #8 adds accepted_ts and last_fired_ts to
proposed_routines, plus ListAcceptedRoutines and MarkRoutineFired so the
tick loop can own the schedule. Accepting no longer links a reminder id.
Look at the TODO(vikunja#366) in cmd/mavend/tick.go for the next commit.

Backlog item #3 (20-07-2026-BACKLOG.md). A morning routine is a checklist for
a daily window: several items, each evidenced by a fact key, completed in any
order, checked once near the end of the window. Modelling it as four
independent reminder timers would stack into exactly the kind of noise Maven is
supposed not to produce, so the engine nags at most once per day per routine
and only for what is actually still missing.
internal/morning follows the established pure-engine pattern (loop, routine,
pattern): no store, no clock of its own. Evaluate answers "what's still
missing" at any point; Due decides whether to nag. The impurity — reading
facts under the store lock, holding the last-nudge map across ticks — stays in
the tick driver, which calls Due each tick exactly as it does for loop.Rule
and routine.Routine.
Completion evidence is a fact key's latest non-voided value timestamped inside
today's window, so manual ("выпил воды", voice-tapped) and inferred (another
daemon writing the same key) are indistinguishable and both count. Weekdays
scopes which days a routine applies to, so weekday/weekend variants are two
routine rows rather than a special case in the engine.
Exposed read-only: a MorningStatus RPC over ipc, and a /morning page in mavweb
built on the same server-rendered shape as /trace — no live-update loop, since
checklist state moves on the scale of minutes.

Two additive proactive/recall features.
Routines (internal/routine): a third proactive class beside reminders
(user-stated) and care rules (world-state) — operator-declared clockwork.
config.routines[] (cron + literal RU body + severity) fire through the
normal dispatcher on schedule. Bodies are literal, not LLM-phrased (can't
hallucinate); rule name routine:<name> keeps them out of the care
autotuner; a cold-start guard seeds on first sight so a restart never
replays a missed schedule. Pure routine.Due + config validation, unit-
tested; the tick driver holds the last-fired map and calls fireRoutines.
Persistent memory (internal/store/memory.go): store.MemoryStore backs the
memory.Store interface with the SAME encrypted sqlite db — survives
restarts and recall text inherits at-rest encryption (no plaintext
sidecar). float32-blob vectors, brute-force cosine (ANN is a later swap
behind the interface), upsert-by-id. The daemon wires st.VectorMemory()
into wireVoice; the in-memory impl stays the test/no-store floor. Closes
the "in-memory only, lost on restart" gap (PROGRESS #8).
Gate green: gofmt/vet clean, -race across routine/config/store/mavend.

ExplainTick and ExplainGate produce a full TickTrace for every tick,
recording per-rule: predicate result, gate result, first gate blocker,
gate detail (snooze/cooldown/presence etc.), and win/loss info.
IPC layer: new MethodTickTrace, DTOs (TickTrace, RuleTrace, GateDetail),
dispatch, client proxy, and CoreAPI interface method.
Daemon: tickLoop caches the latest trace; daemonAPI wraps storeAPI
with a TickTrace override that returns the cached trace.
Tests: 15 new tests for ExplainGate (all blockers, bypass conditions,
ordering) and ExplainTick (nothing fires, one fires, tiebreak,
winner/lost_to recording, gate-blocked recording).
When enabled, eligible nudges (sev ≤ ceiling) are queued in memory
instead of sent immediately. Every 'window' duration (or when
'max_items' reached), the queue is flushed as a single digest
notification with concatenated bodies.
Config:
digest:
enabled: true # default false
window: 30m # flush window (default 30m)
max_items: 5 # flush at this count (default 5)
severity_ceiling: 2 # max sev batched (default 2; sev3+ bypass)
Changes:
- config.go: add DigestConfig struct with defaults
- tick.go: QueuedNudge type, digest queue/flush in TickLoop,
shouldQueue/maybeFlush/flushDigest helpers
- main.go: pass cfg.Digest to newTickLoop
- tick_test.go: 6 new tests covering queue, flush, bypass, dedup
