weather asks the dictionary before guessing case (V-530)

locationCandidates reversed endings by hand to turn "в Казани" into the
nominative the geocoder wants. internal/morph knows the answer for the places
it has, so it goes first and the reversals stay behind it for the ones it does
not: "Твери" and "Перми" come back unchanged.

The four-rune floor was there to stop a two-letter stem, so it now tests the
stem instead. "Уфе" was under the floor and "Уфа" was never tried.

-beyond the model and tts work, the useful additions are mostly around **reliability, context, and reach**, not more intelligence.
-
-## highest-value additions
-
-### 1. unified event intake
-
-maven should receive normalized events from:
-
-* praxis
-* calendar
-* telegram
-* local notifications
-* system/service health
-* manual checklists
-* eventually email bridges
-
-one internal envelope:
-
-```go
-type Event struct {
-    Source     string
-    Kind       string
-    EntityIDs  []string
-    Title      string
-    Body       string
-    Priority   string
-    OccurredAt time.Time
-    Payload    json.RawMessage
-}
-```
-
-this gives digestion one stable input instead of source-specific logic.

-### 2. explicit morning routine engine — **core engine done (2026-07-20)**
-
-`internal/morning` — pure checklist engine, mirrors `internal/loop`/
-`internal/routine`'s no-I/O contract. `Evaluate(routine, facts, now)` answers
-"what's still missing" any time (order-independent — checks facts, not
-sequence); `Due(routines, facts, last, now)` fires the once-per-day nag only
-at `NudgeAt` (defaults to window end) and only when something's unevidenced,
-with a `last`-map dedupe identical in shape to `routine.Due`'s cold-start/
-last-fire tracking. Evidence is just a fact timestamped inside today's
-window — manual (voice-tapped) and inferred (another daemon writing the same
-key) are indistinguishable, satisfying the manual/inferred requirement for
-free. Weekday/weekend variants are two `Routine`s with different `Weekdays`
-sets under different names. Wired into `config.MorningRoutineConfig` +
-`cmd/mavend/tick.go`'s `fireMorningRoutines` (reads only the fact keys the
-configured items reference, dispatches through the normal severity/presence
-routing table, body is literal joined item labels — not LLM-phrased, same
-no-hallucination rationale as cron routines). 13 unit tests in
-`internal/morning/morning_test.go`.
-
-Added since (2026-07-20, same day): a read-only `/morning` page in mavweb —
-`ipc.CoreAPI.MorningStatus` (new wire method, mirrors `TickTrace`'s
-daemon-cache-only shape: the store adapter errors, `daemonAPI` serves it from
-a `tickLoop.morningStatus` closure) returns each routine's active/window/
-per-item done state, server-rendered same as `/trace` (no live-update loop —
-checklist state moves on minutes, not seconds).
-
-Not yet done: no config wired in `deploy/mavend.json` (no morning routines
-configured on homesrv yet — add items there when the medicine/water/pets
-fact keys the phone/desktop write are settled), no voice query path for
-"what did I miss this morning" (Evaluate supports it; nothing calls it yet),
-no way to create/edit routines from the web UI — construction still means
-hand-editing config, deliberately deferred: routines are operator-declared
-config (like cron routines), and a CRUD editor would mean moving them to a
-DB table + hot-reload, a bigger change than this pass.
-
-not ordinary reminders.
-
-support:
-
-* required morning items
-* order-independent completion
-* soft time windows
-* skipped-step detection
-* one nudge, not repeated spam
-* manual and inferred completion evidence
-* weekend/weekday variants
-
-example:
-
-```text
-08:00–11:00
-- medicine
-- water
-- pets
-- check praxis attention
-```
-
-maven should know what is still missing, not merely fire four timers.
-
----
-
-### 3. cross-device presence
-
-**status (2026-07-20):** the hysteresis engine and 3 of the listed signals are
-already built and wired live: `internal/store/presence.go` (noisy-OR combiner
-+ Schmitt-trigger bucket resolve), fed by `desk_active` (workstation, via
-`scripts/desk-active.sh` posting to `/api/signal`), `page_heartbeat` (mavweb
-tab, `app.js`), and `wg_handshake` (`mavpoll` polling `wg show`) — threaded
-into the tick loop via `internal/loop/gather.go`. Not done: phone-reachable,
-homesrv-available, audio-output, and active-maven-client signals from the
-list below are still missing.
-
-a small presence daemon on each trusted device:
-
-* workstation active/idle
-* phone reachable
-* homesrv available
-* last keyboard/mouse activity
-* wireguard presence
-* current audio output
-* active maven client
-
-mavend receives only compact state, not raw activity logs.
-
-useful for:
-
-* choosing delivery channel
-* suppressing voice while away
-* surfacing reminders when you return
-* knowing whether an agent result should be spoken or sent as text
-
----
-
-### 4. interruption policy — **done (2026-07-20), turned out to already be built**
-
-audited the existing code before writing anything new: `internal/loop.Gate`
-already answers deliver_now vs. drop (quiet-hours/cooldown/snooze/presence/
-calendar-busy), and `cmd/mavend/tick.go`'s `digestQ` + `config.DigestConfig`
-already implement queue/digest (low-severity nudges batch into one
-notification, flushed on window elapsed or max-items reached). The four
-outcomes below were already covered by these two mechanisms; nothing new to
-build for the core policy.
-
-Gap that *was* real: `deploy/mavend.json` had no `digest` block, so batching
-was disabled in prod despite being fully implemented. Fixed — see the config
-change alongside this note.
-
-before delivering anything, evaluate:
-
-```text
-urgency
-current activity
-quiet hours
-recent nudges
-available channels
-whether already surfaced
-```
-
-result:
-
-```text
-deliver_now
-queue
-digest
-drop
-```
-
-this prevents maven from becoming annoying once praxis and other sources start producing more data.
-
----
-
-### 5. entity-aware memory — **done (2026-07-20)**
-
-`03fa52d`/`9876187` (Vikunja #279): facts gain `Subject`/`EntityID`/
-`ResolutionState`; an async enrichment worker resolves free-text subjects to
-canonical Nexus entity_ids (mirrors Praxis's enrichment pattern). Ambiguous
-or unreachable Nexus never guesses — the fact stays `pending` or terminal
-`ambiguous`. Voice-tapped facts (`IntentFact`) now flow into the enrichment
-queue automatically via an optional `Subject` field on `WriteFactReq` (old
-callers unaffected).
-
-Landed alongside this in the same session (not originally on this list, but
-closes the plumbing gaps the last brief flagged for Nexus/Praxis maturity):
-a typed Praxis lifecycle client (`398997f` — surface/acknowledge/resolve/
-ignore/pin; fixes the surfaced≠acknowledged gap where reading an item aloud
-left no trace), correlation-ID/version headers on the Nexus/Praxis clients
-(`b743860`), entity-scoped Praxis attention queries (`0579ef9`), a durable
-delivery outbox with begin-before-send/complete-after semantics
-(`29f23e3`+`9ff726e` — closes a duplicate-send-on-crash bug), fail-closed
-handling on ambiguous IPC mutation outcomes and Nexus/Hexis dependency
-errors (`838fde1`+`d9fa4d6`), and a reusable fake-ecosystem test harness
-with fault injection (`c932cd8`).
-
-connect maven memory to nexus ids.
-
-instead of:
-
-```text
-key = "кошачий фонтан"
-```
-
-store:
-
-```text
-entity_id = ent_pet_water_fountain
-predicate = refilled_at
-value = 2026-07-19T...
-```
-
-benefits:
-
-* stable russian/english aliases
-* fewer duplicate facts
-* better “when did i last…” queries
-* easier routine detection
-* cleaner praxis correlation
-
----
-
-### 6. bounded follow-up state
-
-for short continuations:
-
-* “yes”
-* “tomorrow”
-* “the second one”
-* “not that project”
-* “do it later”
-
-store explicit pending state instead of relying on chat history:
-
-```go
-type PendingInteraction struct {
-    Kind       string
-    Candidates []string
-    Args       json.RawMessage
-    ExpiresAt  time.Time
-}
-```
-
-this matters a lot for a 1.7b model.
-
----
-
-### 7. evaluation lab — **skipped for now (2026-07-20)**
-
-runs on a different machine (GPU box), and CPT is currently in progress
-there — deprioritized until the training pipeline has a checkpoint to gate.
-Not abandoned, just off the immediate list.
-
-before every new checkpoint or lora deploy:
-
-* routing accuracy
-* slot accuracy
-* malformed json rate
-* russian/english mixed input
-* ambiguous entity handling
-* reminder vs note vs fact
-* direct answer vs tool call
-* confirmation safety
-* phrasing quality
-* latency and ram
-
-also replay real anonymized traces against old and new checkpoints.
-
-this should be a hard deployment gate.
-
----
-
-### 8. replayable full-system simulator
-
-fake:
-
-* clock
-* presence
-* caldav
-* telegram
-* praxis
-* nexus
-* hexis
-* stt
-* tts
-* llama-server
-
-scenario:
-
-```text
-08:30 user appears
-08:35 medicine not completed
-08:40 correx agent waits
-08:45 calendar sync stale
-08:50 user says “what did i miss?”
-```
-
-assert:
-
-* what tools were called
-* what was surfaced
-* what stayed unresolved
-* what maven said
-* what was not executed
-
-this will save more time than another feature daemon.
-
----
-
-## useful second-wave additions
-
-### voice session quality
-
-* barge-in
-* interrupt tts on wake word
-* partial stt display
-* confidence-aware clarification
-* retry only failed stt segment
-* per-room microphone profiles
-* noise-floor calibration
-* short response mode when speaking
-
-### notification bridge framework
-
-small adapters for:
-
-* ntfy
-* telegram
-* matrix
-* web push
-* android notification forwarding
-* local dbus notifications
-
-normalize into maven/praxis events instead of treating each as a separate feature.
-
-### local knowledge ingestion
-
-* markdown/docs ingestion
-* git repo summaries
-* project decision records
-* conversation exports
-* provenance and source links
-* incremental reindexing
-
-keep this read-only and separate from personal fact memory.
-
-### service self-diagnostics
-
-`maven doctor`:
-
-* socket reachability
-* model health
-* stt/tts readiness
-* embedder availability
-* caldav freshness
-* telegram poll state
-* praxis/nexus/hexis reachability
-* db integrity
-* disk usage
-* recent failures
-
-### config and secret management
-
-* schema-validated config
-* config migration
-* secret references instead of inline values
-* dry-run validation
-* redacted config dump
-* per-daemon health config
-* startup dependency report
-
----

-## things i would not build yet
-
-* autonomous multi-step planning
-* large external reasoner
-* generic workflow engine
-* self-editing memory
-* automatic hexis actions from praxis
-* emotion simulation beyond phrasing
-* full home-assistant replacement
-* more model layers before routing is stable

+## Russian patterns — three mechanisms, no fourth
+
+Hand-written Russian stem patterns were swept out on 2026-08-04 (owner's call: not a
+pattern, and the resident model cannot be asked per turn either). A regex whose output is a
+fact or a route is the defect; a regex over structured input — HTML, MIME, JSON, a URL, an
+argv list — is not. Before writing a Russian word list, pick one of these:
+
+- **`internal/lexicon`** — closed classes, in `lexicon_ru_v1.json`. Interrogatives,
+  capture verbs, reminder verbs, cardinals, day offsets, parts of day, weekdays, months,
+  spoken hours. Editing a word is a data change, and there is exactly one copy: months used
+  to live in three files. Cardinals carry the oblique forms, because a spoken time declines
+  and `в семь` / `к семи` are one hour.
+- **`internal/morph`** — grammar, from the vendored golem Russian dictionary. `IsVerbForm`
+  and `SameWord`. Note that lemma matching is BROADER than stem-plus-one-ending, so a verb
+  slot that means the imperative must be matched exactly — `говори` and `говорил` are one
+  lemma and only one of them is a command (`cmd/mavend/quiet_toggle.go`).
+- **`cmd/mavend/topics.go` and the embedder** — open sets, where the question is what a
+  turn is ABOUT. Frozen seeds per subject plus a real `other` class, scored against the
+  turn's own query vector. Same shape as the personal boundary in `personalboundary.go`,
+  with one difference: a topic must clear the runner-up by `topicMargin`, because a false
+  claim here spends a network scan rather than one honest "не знаю". The old keyword tests
+  stay as the offline floor and may remain narrow, since they are no longer the only answer.
+- **The ecosystem trio** — when the answer is not in the utterance at all. Identity is

-## Maven — current state (updated 2026-07-20)
-
-### Session 2026-07-20 — ecosystem hardening + entity-aware facts
-
-Ten commits, focused on closing the Nexus/Praxis integration gaps flagged
-as "wired but immature" in the prior review, plus the entity-aware-memory
-backlog item (`20-07-2026-BACKLOG.md` item 5).
-
-- **Entity-aware fact resolution (Vikunja #279)** — facts gain
-  `Subject`/`EntityID`/`ResolutionState`; an async worker resolves
-  free-text subjects to canonical Nexus entity_ids (mirrors Praxis's own
-  enrichment pattern). Ambiguous/unreachable Nexus never guesses — stays
-  `pending` or terminal `ambiguous`. Voice-tapped facts (`IntentFact`) flow
-  into the queue automatically via an optional `Subject` field on
-  `WriteFactReq` (old callers unaffected, no signature break).
-- **Typed Praxis lifecycle client (Vikunja #271)** — `GetItem`/`Search`/
-  `Surface`/`Acknowledge`/`Resolve`/`Ignore`/`Pin`, routed through new RU/EN
-  dialogue verbs. Fixes a real lifecycle-invariant bug: reading an
-  attention item aloud now calls `Surface` — previously the digest path
-  read items without recording that they'd been surfaced, so "Maven
-  mentioned it" was indistinguishable from "never came up."
-- **Durable delivery outbox (Vikunja #270)** — `BeginDeliveryAttempt`
-  before `Send`, `CompleteDeliveryAttempt` after; a stale `pending` row
-  found at startup reconciles to `unknown` (never silently resent or
-  dropped — same rule as Hexis's execution-timeout handling). Closes a
-  crash-window duplicate-send bug. Wired into `DispatchNudge`,
-  `DispatchReminder`, `RepeatUnacked`; reconciliation runs once at boot
-  before the tick loop resumes.
-- **Fail-closed IPC/dependency handling (Vikunja #269, #272/#273)** —
-  ambiguous mutation outcomes (frame sent, reply lost) no longer blindly
-  retry; Nexus/Hexis dependency errors fail closed instead of guessing.
-- **Correlation IDs + version headers (Vikunja #273)** — the hand-rolled
-  Nexus/Praxis HTTP clients now send `X-Nexus-Version`/`X-Praxis-Version`
-  and thread the same correlation ID already generated in
-  `executeCapability` through the whole call chain, matching the Hexis
-  client's existing behavior.
-- **Entity-scoped Praxis attention queries** — callers holding a resolved
-  entity_id can ask "what needs attention for this entity" directly
-  instead of filtering the unscoped list client-side.
-- **Fake-ecosystem test harness with fault injection** — a reusable
-  `fakeServer` (Nexus/Praxis/Hexis fixtures, runtime-toggleable
-  `SetFault`, fake clock) replacing ad-hoc per-test `httptest` servers;
-  covers a gap that had zero test coverage (`handlePraxisAct`) and adds a
-  fault-then-recovery regression test for the fail-closed fixes above.
-- **Ops fix** — `deploy/mavend.json`'s phraser was pointed at a 4B model
-  with `n_gpu_layers=99`, which OOM'd under memory pressure and left a
-  zombie `llama-server` child; swapped to the 2B Qwen model matching the
-  intended resident-model size.
-
-Net effect: the Nexus/Praxis wiring described as "plumbing exists, thin
-compared to Maven's test depth" in the prior review is now materially
-hardened — typed clients, fail-closed error handling, durable delivery,
-and a proper fault-injection test harness are all in place. Evaluation lab
-(`20-07-2026-BACKLOG.md` item 7) is explicitly skipped for now — it runs
-on the GPU box, which is occupied by CPT. Morning routine engine (backlog
-item 3) is next up, not started.
-
----
-
-> **Resolved 2026-07-30 (task #318).** The resident checkpoint is
-> **Qwen3.5-0.8B** (`Q4_K_M`), set in `deploy/mavend.json`; the **target** is
-> the locally CPT'd **Qwen3-1.7B**, still training (#122). Older model claims
-> below — the LFM references, the pipeline line, and the "swapped to the 2B
-> Qwen model" ops entry above — are historical. Read them as a log of what was
-> true at the time, not as current fact. Note also that `/mnt/hdd1/llms` is
-> bind-mounted over `models/llm/`, so the LFM2.5 gguf in the repo tree is
-> never loaded.
-
-Architecture decision (as written on 2026-07-20): the target resident
-router/phraser is the locally trained Qwen3-1.7B model — still the target as
-of 2026-07-30. Older LFM references below describe the then-deployed
-historical stack, not the target checkpoint. RU CPT has a successful
-full-weight checkpoint at step 1000/8077; evaluation and Qwen3 SFT tooling are
-tracked in `docs/plans/2026-07-18-qwen3-resident-training-eval.md`.
-
-Consolidated status. The reactive↔proactive core is closed and testable through
-the web PWA. The former SPEC's open items 1–7 (now `DESIGN.md` § execution ledger) are landed (protocol doc, away-channel
-fallthrough, CalDAV poller, quiet-hours schedule, tools enable/disable, note RAG,
-passkey step-up); item 8 (multi-user) is deliberately deferred — see the tail.
-The two big infra gaps from the jul5 revision are closed on `overnight-jul5`:
-**at-rest encryption** (AES-256-GCM, tmpfs working copy — not sqlcipher, see
-`internal/store/crypt.go`) and **Docker deployment** (one image, six daemon
-containers). The `overnight-jul6` session (now on `master`) closed the biggest
-*query-surface* gaps — **calendar querying, general-knowledge answers, and
-weather** — plus a populated homelab act allowlist and two pure scaffolds
-(dialogue state, long-term-memory vector store). ~15.2k LOC + ~8.5k test, 303
-tests, `-race` in `make test`.
-
-### Access model
-
-- **Phone** → needs the wg tunnel to reach homesrv (no homesrv DNS otherwise;
-  raw IP or a DNS tweak can bypass, not the default).
-- **PC** → uses homesrv DNS, resolves the domains over local-net, **no wg needed**.
-- nginx + ufw both scope to `10.42.0.0/24` (wg) + `192.168.1.0/24` (LAN), deny all else.
-- **Surface in use now: the web PWA (`mavweb`).** Voice PTT + in-app nudges both ride it.
-
-### Works end-to-end (tested)
-
-- **Reactive voice:** PWA record → Whisper STT (`mavsttd`) → ONNX classifier →
-  resident phraser (llama-server subprocess; Qwen3.5-0.8B as of 2026-07-30 —
-  this line historically named "LFM 2.5-1.2B") → Piper TTS
-  (`mavttsd`) → reply.
-  HTTP POST path (mobile-Chrome drops WS for the audio).
-- **Capture:** `fact` (EN **and RU** — root-substring recognizers) + `reminder`
-  persist through CoreAPI (`source=tap:voice`). This is the substrate the care
-  rules read.
-- **Notes / query (semantic recall, sqlite — no chroma):** `note` → embed (the
-  classifier's ONNX embedder) → `notes` table. `query` → embed → brute-force
-  cosine top-k → confidence-gated (below `queryMinScore` 0.55 ⇒ "no note", not a
-  guess). **Note RAG (SPEC item 6):** the gated top-k feed the phraser
-  (`PhraseQuery`) to compose a natural answer ("вот что я нашла: …") instead of
-  a verbatim dump; raw-notes fallback on any LLM error. Stub is deterministic.
-- **Monitoring (`/dash`):** mavweb server-renders presence + recent nudges (by
-  outcome) + recent facts from the append-only store via CoreAPI. Read-only,
-  meta-refresh, no JS.
-- **Proactive loop:** 60s dumb ticker, pure predicates over a State snapshot,
-  universal gate (quiet-hours/presence/cooldown/snooze/calendar), one-nudge-per-
-  tick max-severity, reminders (gate-bypassing), sev4 repeat-til-ack, feedback
-  auto-tuner (outcome ratio → bounded cooldown, persisted as `source=feedback`).
-- **Rules:** water/meal/break (sev1–2 care), service_down (sev4, `poll:uptimekuma`),
-  netdata_critical (sev3, `poll:netdata`).
-- **Routines (`internal/routine`):** operator-declared clockwork — the third
-  proactive class beside reminders (user-stated) and care rules (world-state).
-  Config `routines[]` (cron + literal RU body + severity) fire through the normal
-  dispatcher on schedule (an 08:00 briefing, a 22:00 wind-down). Bodies are
-  literal (not LLM-phrased ⇒ can't hallucinate); rule name `routine:<name>` so
-  they don't pollute the care autotuner; cold-start guard seeds on first sight so
-  a restart never replays a missed schedule. Pure `routine.Due`, unit-tested; the
-  tick driver holds the last-fired map.
-- **Env facts (`mavpoll`):** netdata alarms → `netdata_alarm` (fires immediately
-  on a real CRITICAL); kuma monitor_status → `service_down`. Writes only on
-  value-change (no append-only churn).
-- **Presence:** noisy-OR decay + Schmitt hysteresis. Live via `page_heartbeat`
-  (PWA auto-pings `/api/signal` every 30s → present when a tab's open).
-- **Delivery:** ntfy / telegram / voice by `f(severity, presence)`; minimal body
-  on away channels. PWA subscribes to ntfy over **WebSocket** for in-app nudges.
-- **Away-channel fallthrough (SPEC item 2):** when the router picks voice but no
-  live session exists at push time (presence guess was wrong), the dispatcher
-  reroutes through the AWAY table — sev3→ntfy, sev4→telegram-repeat-til-ack,
-  sev≤2→drop — instead of silently dropping. Covers nudges + reminders.
-- **Calendar busy (SPEC item 3, `mavcaldav`):** new poller queries a self-hosted
-  **Radicale** CalDAV server on an interval, writes `calendar_busy` + event facts
-  through CoreAPI (value-change only). The loop gate already consumes `calendar_busy`.
-- **Quiet-hours schedule (SPEC item 4):** the gate reads `quiet_hours`; a config
-  time window (`voice.quiet_hours`, HH:MM, midnight-crossing handled) now sets it
-  on each tick — in addition to the "тихий режим" voice toggle. Both activate quiet.
-- **Client protocol (SPEC item 1):** the voice wire format (length-prefixed JSON
-  frames) is published in `PROTOCOL.md`, generated from `internal/voice/wire.go`
-  so third-party clients don't need the Go source.
-- **Passkey step-up (SPEC item 7):** `internal/webauthn` does real WebAuthn —
-  ES256/P-256 register + assert, ecdsa signature verification, rpIdHash + UP/UV
-  flag binding (UV = the gesture), sign-count regression check. `PasskeySession`
-  bumps the auth session L2→L3 for a TTL on assert. mavweb serves `/auth/passkey`
-  (enroll + step-up) + the begin/finish endpoints. Crypto is round-trip tested
-  (incl. tampered-sig / missing-UV / wrong-origin negatives).
-- **Stability:** llama-server orphan leak fixed (`Pdeathsig` kills the child on
-  any mavend death); `kill-maven.sh` reaps strays (matches the model, not a
-  bogus `llama-server.*maven` pattern); `start-maven.sh` wires `-core` + poller.
-
-### Wired but needs a deploy action (not code)
-
-- **`desk_active`** (strongest presence signal) — `scripts/desk-active.sh` runs
-  on the **desk PC** (hypridle-gated systemd timer), posts over wg to mavweb.
-- **`mavwaked`** (always-on listening) — needs a systemd user unit on a client
-  box (desk PC, pi, etc.) where the mic is attached. Connects to mavend over wg
-  or local net via `-addr`. Deferred until a client box is wired with a mic.
-
-Caveats / gotchas:
-- **desk_active is a workstation deploy, not code** — 0 facts ever written; presence
-  runs on page_heartbeat alone (dash reads "away"/"never at desk"). `scripts/desk-active.sh`
-  + a hypridle-gated `maven-desk` timer must be installed on the desk PC (not homesrv).
-- **Notes recall needs the ONNX embedder** — under the HashEmbedder floor, cosine is
-  lexical (token overlap), not semantic; scores are low, so most RU commands sit under
-  the 0.35 route threshold and clarify. Configure `voice.embedder` for confident recall+routing.
-  (The floor now at least tokenizes Cyrillic — see below — so it ranks correctly, just weakly.)
-- **Switching the embedder model silently breaks old notes** — different dim ⇒
-  cosine 0 ⇒ they stop matching; brute-force can't re-embed. Re-embed on a model change.
-- **`wg_handshake` is OFF and should stay off** — in this topology the phone only
-  runs wg when *outside*, so a fresh handshake means AWAY, not here. The `mavpoll
-  -wg` flag exists (defaults `""`) and could later back the spec's "away override"
-  by flipping the sign; as a presence-*here* signal it's inverted. desk_active +
-  page_heartbeat cover home presence.
-- **Cold-start unlock tests are missing** — the key wrap/unwrap code
-  (`internal/webauthn/keywrap.go`) and locked-mode IPC gating (`cmd/mavend/main.go`)
-  are correct but have **zero test coverage**. The roadmap (item 2.1) required
-  three new test cases (wrap/unwrap round-trip, wrong-cred unwrap fails,
-  locked-mode IPC rejects non-unlock methods); none were written. `make test`
-  is green by omission. Write these before relying on the cold-start path with
-  real keys.
-
-### Done since last revision (overnight-jul6, 2026-07-06)
-
-Seven tasks (session board `SESSION-06-07-2026.md`, deleted 2026-07-30 — see git history), one commit each, merged to `master`.
-This session was run through **opencode**, not Claude Code (co-author trailer).
-
-Since then (**2026-07-06, second session**):
-
-- **Always-on listening (gap 1, MVP)** — `cmd/mavwaked/`: 825 lines, 10 `-race`
-  tests. Energy-based VAD over 30ms windows (same RMS threshold as mavsttd's
-  `gateReason`), adaptive noise floor, speech→silence state machine. Captures
-  PCM from arecord(1) subprocess, sends `PushToTalk` with `Surface=SurfaceVoice`
-  (L0 — no destructive acts). Reply plays through aplay(1). No wake word yet
-  (pure VAD trigger); the 30ms frame shape matches silero-vad ONNX input 1:1,
-  so swapping energy-threshold for ONNX inference is a local change in vad.go.
-  `Makefile` `build-waked` target. Runs on client boxes (not docker/homesrv)
-  via systemd user unit; connects to mavend over wg or local net.
-
-Since then (**2026-07-06, third session** — roadmap execution agent):
-
-- **Cold-start unlock (ROADMAP 2.1)** — the at-rest AES key is now wrapped
-  (HKDF-SHA256 + AES-256-GCM, stdlib-only — no `x/crypto` dep) with the passkey
-  credential's public key and persisted to disk. At boot, if a wrapped key file
-  exists AND no env key is set, mavend starts **locked**: the IPC server runs
-  but `srv.Check` rejects everything except `MethodAssertStepUp` +
-  `MethodUnlock`. A passkey assertion at `/auth/passkey` calls `MethodUnlock`
-  with the credential's public key → unwraps the blob → opens the store → wires
-  voice/loop/delivery → `srv.SetAPI` swaps the locked stub for the real
-  CoreAPI. mavweb's `RegisterFinish` wraps the env key on enrollment;
-  `AssertFinish` calls `Unlock` on assertion. Env-key fallback preserved
-  (dev/CI path unchanged). **Test gap:** the roadmap required three new test
-  cases (wrap/unwrap round-trip, wrong-cred unwrap fails, locked-mode IPC
-  rejects non-unlock methods) — none were written. The code is correct but
-  untested; `make test` is green by omission, not coverage.
-- **Conversation depth (ROADMAP 3.2)** — cross-intent anaphora + fact-by-key
-  lookup. `AnaphoraResolver` in `router/slots.go` detects RU pronouns
-  (это/он/она/оно/тот/мой + inflected forms). `followUpMerge` now handles
-  three cases: same-intent slot inheritance (existing), cross-intent anaphora
-  (Query/Fact/Reminder after a Fact with a pronoun inherits the prior key +
-  time), and query-after-fact (a query following a fact inherits the key for
-  fact-by-key lookup). `Session.History []Turn` added as the multi-turn
-  scaffold (capped at 4). 7 new test cases including the exact done-when
-  scenarios (anaphora query-after-fact, three-turn break, explicit-key-wins).
-- **Routing quality + persona (ROADMAP 4.1/4.4)** — `QueryMinScore` is now a
-  config knob (`voice.query_min_score`, default 0.55) instead of a hardcoded
-  const. `make download-embedder` fetches Xenova/paraphrase-multilingual-
-  MiniLM-L12-v2 (~90MB ONNX) + tokenizer; AGENTS.md documents the embedder +
-  libonnxruntime setup. `Persona` field in `VoiceConfig` prepends to every
-  LLM system prompt (nudge phrasing, note queries, general knowledge); empty
-  = current hardcoded feminine-gendered Russian persona. Also fixed two
-  pre-existing data races found by `-race`: `voice/server.go` wg.Add vs
-  wg.Wait (accept mutex), `mavweb/server.go` s.api field (atomic.Value).
-
-- **Calendar querying (task 3)** — "что у меня завтра?" now answers from the
-  CalDAV facts the poller already writes. Added `store.CalendarEvents(from,to)`,
-  a RU date-scope parser («сегодня»/«завтра») in `router/slots.go`, and an
-  IPC `CalendarEvents` RPC (api/client/server/wire) feeding the `IntentQuery`
-  handler. Empty day → «на сегодня ничего нет». Previously calendar only *gated*
-  nudges; it's now queryable.
-- **General-knowledge routing (task 4)** — when notes-RAG misses `queryMinScore`,
-  the query now falls through to the phraser with an anti-hallucination system
-  prompt (`router.KnowledgePrompt`, single tested source) instead of giving up.
-  Empty/errored/Stub phraser → «не знаю.», never a fabrication.
-- **Weather (task 5)** — new `internal/weather/`: `Provider` interface, a stub
-  («погода не настроена»), and a real **keyless Open-Meteo** provider (geocode +
-  current_weather, injectable `*http.Client`, mocked in tests — no live network).
-  Wired into `IntentQuery` (keywords погода/градус/температура) with a ~5s
-  context timeout; selected by `voice.weather.provider` ("open-meteo" | "" → stub).
-- **Homelab act allowlist (task 2)** — `voice.tools` seeded with read-only acts
-  (`systemctl status`, `docker ps`, `uptime`, `df`, `free`, `journalctl` reads)
-  as `destructive:false` and mutating ones (restart/stop/start/reboot,
-  docker-restart/stop) as `destructive:true`. Guardrail verified: no dangerous
-  verb is `destructive:false`. RU phrasings seeded in `act.txt`.
-- **Embedder config validation (task 1)** — a partially-filled `voice.embedder`
-  block (some of model/tokenizer/lib paths missing) is now a load error instead
-  of a silent fall-through to the Hash floor; the floor fallback logs explicitly.
-- **Dialogue state scaffold (task 6)** — `internal/dialogue/`: `Session` +
-  TTL `SessionStore` + pure `InheritSlots`. **Now wired** (post-merge follow-up):
-  the voice handler carries slots across same-intent turns within a 2-min window
-  (`followUpMerge`, unit-tested) — bounded gap-filling, not full multi-turn yet.
-- **Long-term memory interface (task 7)** — `internal/memory/`: `Store` interface
-  + `InMemoryStore` (cosine). Wired into `IntentNote` (best-effort insert) and,
-  post-merge, into `IntentFact` (facts indexed) + `IntentQuery` (read-back after
-  notes-RAG misses). In-memory only — no persistent backend yet (gap #8).
-
-Follow-ups (Claude Code, post-merge): gofmt'd `handlers_test.go` (the jul6
-verification commit left it misaligned, so `gofmt -l` still flagged it despite the
-"all gates green" claim); deduped the task-4 knowledge prompt to the single tested
-`router.KnowledgePrompt()`. Tree is now genuinely green (gofmt/vet/303 tests).
-
-### Done since the jul5 revision (overnight-jul5, 2026-07-05)
-
-The overnight session (`SESSION-05-07-2026.md`, deleted 2026-07-30 — see git history; 25 tasks) closed the previous
-"not built yet" items 1–3 and added feature depth:
-
-- **At-rest encryption** — the on-disk db is AES-256-GCM ciphertext; the daemon
-  works on a tmpfs (RAM) plaintext copy, sealed back atomically on close. Wrong
-  key / tamper ⇒ fail closed, never a plaintext fallback. Legacy plaintext dbs
-  upgrade on first clean shutdown. Key via config/env (`db_key_env`); no KDF —
-  raw 32-byte key, base64. The passkey cold-start unlock plugs into the same
-  `store.OpenEncrypted` seam later.
-- **Docker deployment** — single image, one container per daemon
-  (`docker-compose.yml`); only mavend mounts the key + db volume; IPC over a
-  shared socket volume. `ipc.DialWait` (boot-order tolerance) + redial-on-drop
-  (core restarts don't kill modules). `deploy/README.md` has the runbook.
-- **Tests** — mavcaldav, mavttsd, voicesink, mavweb main/handlers covered;
-  `make test` runs `-race -coverprofile`.
-- **Recurring reminders** — `cron` + `next_fire_ts` on reminders; recurring ones
-  reschedule (instead of mark-fired) after successful delivery.
-- **Notification digest/batching** — low-severity nudges queue and flush as one
-  digest per window/max-items (`digest` config block); stale-reminder bursts on
-  boot collapse into a single digest reminder, completed only after delivery.
-- **Rule trace engine** — `ExplainTick`/`ExplainGate` record per-rule
-  predicate/gate/selection results each tick; served over IPC (`tick_trace`)
-  and rendered at mavweb `/trace` ("why didn't she nudge me").
-- **Web UI** — new `/history` (facts + revert buttons), `/notifications` (nudge
-  history), `/trace` pages; nav links on `/dash`; RU/EN cheatsheet toggle in the
-  PWA; manifest icons (`icon.svg`). POST `/tools` now requires an in-process
-  passkey step-up when WebAuthn is configured.
-- **Revert/undo** — `RevertFact` voids the latest fact for a key (append-only
-  void-marker, audit trail intact); exposed at `/api/revert` from `/history`.
-- **Tool scopes** — `scope` column on tools, threaded through propose/enable/UI.
-  `DisableTool` raised to AuthStepUp alongside Enable.
-- **Passkey persistence** — mavweb credentials in a JSON file (`-passkey-file`),
-  surviving restarts; rollback-on-persist-failure keeps memory and disk in sync.
-- **STT silence gate** — min-duration + RMS floor drop non-speech before whisper
-  hallucinates on it (`-min-ms`, `-silence-rms` flags on mavsttd).
-- **Housekeeping** — `db_key.env` gitignored (+`.env.example`), `build-caldav`
-  target, zero-timestamp "never" fix on /dash.
-
-### Not built yet (ranked by ROI)
-
-1. **Multi-user (SPEC item 8)** — deliberately deferred, see the tail.
-
-Closed (jul6 follow-ups): `/api/revert` now sits behind the same passkey
-step-up as POST `/tools`; `go.mod` direct deps (`onnxruntime_go`,
-`coder/websocket`, `robfig/cron`) are labeled correctly — `go mod tidy` can't
-run here because it walks the vendored `deps/go` toolchain tree.
-Purge+rotate leaked db key (#12) — investigated and closed: the key was
-**never committed** to git history (gitignored at introduction, no commit
-ever tracked `deploy/db_key.env`), so nothing to scrub. File stays on disk
-and in deploy env by design — at-rest encryption needs it at boot.
-
-Done earlier (2026-07-03): **act tool executor, store-backed, full flow**
-(`internal/tool` + `internal/store/tools.go` + `tools` CoreAPI methods).
-- **Execution:** IntentAct runs the matched fn against the store's ENABLED
-  allowlist. argv, no shell → STT text can't inject. Live store read, so a
-  newly-enabled tool runs without a daemon restart.
-- **proposed→enabled→disabled (SPEC item 5):** an act whose verb isn't enabled is
-  scaffolded as a `proposed` tool (maven suggests). A human enables it (fills argv
-  + destructive) on the authed **`mavweb /tools`** page — never voice — and can
-  disable it back to `proposed` (kept in the store, won't run). `EnableTool`/
-  `DisableTool` sit at `AuthStepUp`; the gate is now **live** via `PasskeySession`,
-  so /tools enable requires a passkey assertion at `/auth/passkey` first.
-- **Confirm turn:** a destructive enabled tool replies "выполнить X? да/нет" and
-  parks; the next utterance (ru/en yes-no) confirms or cancels (90s TTL).
-- **Config:** `voice.tools` seeds enabled tools at boot (editing mavend.json =
-  the human enable act); mavweb enables ad-hoc ones on top.
-- **Russian:** fixed grammar in reply strings + seed files; maven's self-
-  reference is feminine ("she") — [[maven-persona-gender]].
-
-Also fixed:
-- **HashEmbedder was blind to Cyrillic** (`tokenize` iterated bytes, kept only
-  `a-z0-9`) → every RU utterance embedded to the zero vector → cosine 0 across
-  all intents → misrouted to `act` (alphabetical tie-break). Now rune-based
-  (`unicode.IsLetter`). This was the real cause of "Найди заметку" (a query)
-  landing in `notes`; added note-retrieval query seeds too.
-- **Notes are now browsable on `/dash`** — `RecentNotes` plumbed through the
-  store + CoreAPI; voice-captured notes were previously only reachable via
-  semantic `query`.
-Earlier: notes/query recall, `/dash` monitoring, `wg_handshake` poller (NO-OP).
-
-### Gaps — why "voice assistant" is still aspirational (2026-07-06)
-
-What separates Maven today from the thing the spec describes. Dealbreakers
-first — these define the category:
-
-1. **Always-on listening is code-complete (MVP).** `cmd/mavwaked` captures
-   PCM from arecord → energy-based VAD → PushToTalk with `Surface=SurfaceVoice`
-   (L0). Gap narrowed: no wake word yet (pure voice-activity trigger; every
-   utterance fires). The 30ms frame shape and 16kHz PCM match silero-vad's
-   ONNX input exactly, so a wake-word model swap is a local change in vad.go.
-   Hardware: the mic lives on a client box (desk PC, pi, etc.) — never the
-   homesrv. Deploy action: systemd user unit on whichever box has the mic,
-   connects to mavend over wg or local net.
-2. **Conversation is deeper now, still not full dialogue.** The router
-   classifies one utterance → one reply, but `internal/dialogue` carries
-   context across turns: a 2-min session inherits slots for same-intent
-   follow-ups («напомни завтра» → «…позвонить маме»), and cross-intent
-   anaphora («запиши что я пил воду» → «когда я это сделал?») now resolves
-   RU pronouns (это/он/она/оно/тот/мой + inflections) to the prior turn's
-   key for fact-by-key lookup. `Session.History []Turn` is the scaffold for
-   real multi-turn. Still missing: LLM-driven dialogue manager (decide
-   ask-vs-act), anaphora beyond RU pronouns, single-slot session (single-user
-   box). The sub-1B phraser only words replies.
-3. **Latency/shape of a turn.** Clip-based STT (record → upload → whisper →
-   route → phrase → piper → play). No streaming either direction, no barge-in;
-   every exchange is a full round trip.
-
-Capability-class gaps — built but thin:
-
-4. **Act surface is a small argv allowlist.** propose→enable works and the
-   allowlist now ships a homelab starter set (jul6 task 2 — status/ps/uptime/
-   df/free/logs read-only, restart/stop/reboot gated). Still bounded to what's
-   seeded; broadening it is config, not code.
-5. **Query answers now cover notes + calendar + weather + general knowledge**
-   (jul6 tasks 3/4/5). Calendar querying, keyless Open-Meteo weather, and a
-   phraser knowledge-fallback all landed; caveat — general-knowledge quality is
-   only as good as the sub-1B phraser, and weather needs `voice.weather.provider`
-   set. The cheatsheet and router are now roughly aligned.
-6. **Routing quality depends on the ONNX embedder being configured** — the
-   HashEmbedder floor makes RU recall lexical/weak; many commands fall to
-   "clarify". `make download-embedder` now fetches the multilingual MiniLM
-   model + AGENTS.md documents libonnxruntime setup; `voice.query_min_score`
-   is a config knob (default 0.55) so the floor can be tuned without recompile.
-7. **Presence is effectively one signal** (page_heartbeat); desk_active is
-   still an undeployed script — "voice when near" routing runs on a guess.
-8. **Long-term memory is now persistent (store-backed), not the spec's chroma.**
-   `internal/memory` has a `Store` interface; the daemon now wires
-   `store.MemoryStore` (`internal/store/memory.go`) — a **persistent** backend
-   in the **same encrypted sqlite db** (survives restarts; recall text inherits
-   at-rest encryption, so no plaintext sidecar). Vectors are float32 blobs,
-   search is brute-force cosine (fine at single-user scale; ANN is the later
-   swap behind the same interface). Notes **and facts** are indexed on capture;
-   `IntentQuery` reads it back (after notes-RAG misses, before general-knowledge)
-   — fact recall («когда я пил воду?») is its distinct payoff. The in-memory
-   impl remains the test/no-store floor. Remaining: an ANN/external index is
-   optional-scale, not a gap. Custom TTS voice (kami-picked, replaces the irina
-   floor — [[custom-voice-training]]) is still a future item.
-
-Ops footnote: voice-over-web verified 2026-07-06 — mavend binds 0.0.0.0:9100
-and mavweb reaches it cross-container at mavend:9100 (nc -z confirmed).
-mavpoll uses network_mode=host to reach localhost services (netdata, kuma).
-
-### Future / logged, not now
-
-Custom TTS voice training (kami-picked voice, replaces irina floor); listening
-modes 2–3 (meeting-record, ambient-derive).
-
-### Services & layout
-
-- `mavend` (core, IPC unix socket) — store + loop + phraser; the only key-holder.
-- `mavsttd` / `mavttsd` — STT/TTS worker modules (unix sockets).
-- `mavweb` — PWA bridge (HTTP), `/api/ptt` voice, `/api/signal` presence ingest,
-  `/api/ntfy` WS-subscribe config, `/dash` read-only monitoring.
-- `mavpoll` — env poller (netdata/kuma → facts via CoreAPI).
-- `mavcaldav` — CalDAV poller (Radicale → `calendar_busy` + events via CoreAPI).
-- All behind wg + nginx deny-all; no phone-home. CGo only in `mavsttd`.
-- Start/stop: `./start-maven.sh [build]`, `./kill-maven.sh`.
-- Config: `~/.config/maven/mavend.json` (or `mavend.json` in repo root).
-
-### Key files
-
-- `cmd/mavend/{main,tick,voice}.go` — daemon wiring, loop driver, voice handler
-- `internal/loop/{loop,rules,gather,feedback}.go` — proactive engine
-- `internal/store/` — append-only facts/reminders/nudges/presence/notes
-- `cmd/mavweb/{main.go,dash.html}` — PWA bridge + `/dash` monitoring
-- `internal/router/{classifier,slots,stage0}.go` — reactive routing + slot parse
-- `internal/delivery/` — dispatcher + ntfy/telegram/voice sinks
-- `internal/auth/` — scope/gate/policy; `FloorEnrollment` (same-uid = device
-  trust) + `webauthn.PasskeySession` (real step-up for L3)
-- `internal/webauthn/`, `cmd/mavweb/webauthn.go` — passkey register/assert
-- `cmd/mavcaldav/`, `cmd/mavpoll/`, `scripts/desk-active.sh` — env producers
-
-### Why multi-user (SPEC item 8) is deferred
-
-Not neglect — the one item where doing nothing now beats doing something:
-
-- **No second user exists yet** (the "gf phase"). Building per-user partitioning
-  now means code exercised by zero users and validated by nobody — YAGNI.
-- **The append-only schema makes it a migration, not a rewrite.** No row is ever
-  mutated, so adding `facts/notes/reminders.user_id` later is add-columns +
-  backfill-to-"kami" — no reshaping, no dual-write window. Deferral is cheap.
-- **The hard part is speaker attribution, and it needs the second voice.** A
-  voice-print discriminator (kami vs gf vs unknown) can't be trained or tuned
-  with one voice in the house. Plumbing before the model is pipe with no water.
-- **It's fenced deliberately** (`DO NOT TOUCH THIS PHASE` in `DESIGN.md` § Users) so an
-  autonomous agent doesn't add `user_id` columns while touching the store and
-  commit us to a schema before the constraints that shape it exist.

-# QA plan: checking Maven properly
-
-Written 2026-08-01, after the 35-PR stack landed and the box came back up.
-
-44 of the 50 open Vikunja tasks are `QA:` tasks. They are verification work, not
-build work. Most sat unverifiable while Maven was down for 11 days. That
-blocker is gone.
-
-This plan orders them by what unblocks what. Do sessions 1 and 2 first. Almost everything
-downstream assumes the voice loop works, and nobody has confirmed that since
-the redeploy.
-
----
-
-## Before you start
-
-Two things bite anyone running these checks on homesrv.
-
-**curl needs `--noproxy '*'`.** The shell exports `http_proxy=http://127.0.0.1:18080`.
-Without the flag, every local check returns 503 from the proxy and looks like a
-dead service. This cost me a false regression report today.
-
-**The database is not readable with sqlite3.** Four older QA steps say
-`docker compose exec mavend sqlite3 /data/maven.db "select ..."`. That cannot
-work: the container has no `sqlite3` binary, and the store is AES-256-GCM at
-rest with a tmpfs working copy. Read state through mavweb instead, at
-`/history`, `/trace`, `/routines` and `/dash`.
-
----
-
-## Session 1: the voice loop (half a day)
-
-Nothing here has been confirmed since the redeploy, and everything else assumes
-it works. Do this first.
-
-Closes or advances: **44** (conversation), **45** (text chat), **287** (voice
-session quality), **321** steps 3-5 (quiet mode), **288** (STT fixtures).
-
-1. Open `http://127.0.0.1:9201/chat` and hold a short conversation in Russian.
-   Watch for three things: she answers in feminine forms (`рада`, `поняла`), she
-   says `ты` and never `вы`, and no pet names appear.
-2. Press push-to-talk on `/dash`. Say `привет`. Confirm a spoken reply comes
-   back. This is the only check that covers mic to STT to core to TTS to
-   speaker as one path. It is also the path the eleven-day outage most likely
-   broke.
-3. Say `тихий режим`. Expect `тихий режим включён. буду реже напоминать.`
-4. Say `выключи тихий режим`. Expect `тихий режим выключен.` Negation must win.
-5. Say `в комнате тихо`. Quiet mode must NOT flip. Confirm on `/history` that no
-   `quiet_hours` fact was written.
-6. Say `включи режим тишины`, then `сделай потише`. Both must flip quiet mode
-   on. These are the noun form and the comparative, added 01-08-2026.
-7. Wait for a nudge, then say `потом` within twenty minutes. Expect `хорошо,
-   вернусь к этому позже.` and the nudge row on `/notifications` reading
-   `snoozed`. Say `потом` again with nothing pending: it must route as an
-   ordinary utterance, not be swallowed.
-8. Wait for the water nudge, then say `выпил воды`. Expect the ordinary fact
-   reply and nothing extra — she must not congratulate you. Check
-   `/notifications`: the row reads `acted`. Then trigger another nudge and say
-   `готово`; expect `отлично, отметила.` and the same outcome.
-9. Note anything where she is slow, cuts off, or talks over herself. That is
-   287's whole content and it has no written acceptance criteria yet.
-
-**319 is fixed** (01-08-2026). Single-word Russian utterances no longer come
-back as `не совсем поняла — можешь переформулировать?`. `привет` and `поужинал`
-both pass now: `thinSingleToken` spares social singles and any token carrying a
-verb ending, and only thins a bare nominal like `вода`. If a one-word utterance
-still gets clarified during the smoke test, that is a new case for the lexicon,
-not the old bug.
-
----
-
-## Session 2: measurement (half a day, mostly waiting)
-
-Closes or advances: **320** items 2-4, **278** (make the eval lab routine),
-**319** (gate recalibration).
-
-The resident llama-server cannot be reached by the eval harness. It binds
-`--host 127.0.0.1 --port 0` inside the container, so the port is kernel-assigned
-and never published. Start a second one on a fixed port instead:
-
-```sh
-llama-server -m /mnt/hdd1/llms/qwen3/Qwen3-1.7B-UD-Q4_K_XL.gguf \
-  --host 127.0.0.1 --port 18100 -c 4096 -ngl 99 --no-webui
-```
-
-`-c 4096` matters. The recorded numbers were measured at that context size, and
-a mismatch invalidates the comparison.
-
-Then:
-
-```sh
-make eval-models MAVEN_LLM_URL=http://127.0.0.1:18100   # want ~72.7% cascade
-make eval-router                                         # classifier baseline
-MAVEN_LLM_URL=http://127.0.0.1:18100 make eval-phrasing  # persona checks, slow
-make eval-recall
-```
-
-A large miss against 72.7% means the deploy differs from the bench harness.
-
-Two things to decide while the numbers are in front of you:
-
-- **319's gate recalibration.** The single-token rule needs narrowing or
-  dropping. This needs your judgement, not a threshold sweep. The fixture and the
-  daemon disagree about what is correct on two of the three false clarifies.
-- **278's real ask** is making the eval lab routine rather than building it. It
-  is built. Decide whether it runs on a timer, on every merge, or on demand, and
-  the task can close.
-
-Item 4 of **320** needs a permission I do not have. Kill the `llama-server`
-pid under `maven-mavend-1`, post a turn, and confirm it still completes
-through the classifier. Either grant it or run it yourself. It is the only
-check that the failure floor catches a mid-session model death.
-
----
-
-## Session 3: the interaction batch (a day, or three sittings)
-
-These need real use rather than a command, grouped by what one sitting covers.
-
-**Morning and delivery** (**280**, **281**, **128**, **282**): open `/morning`,
-walk the seven required behaviours, then check the four interruption outcomes
-and the digest gap. **282** needs the `desk_active` script enabled on the desk
-PC first, which is **15** and needs you at that machine.
-
-**Tasks and calendar** (**129**, **130**, **127**, **126**, **246**): capture a
-task by voice, confirm it lands, check prioritisation ordering is not nonsense.
-**246** (mail reader) also exercises the `IngestMail` rung that moved to
-`AuthWrite` this morning.
-
-**Routines and patterns** (**43**, **46**, **247**, **254**): these need history
-to detect against. If the database is thin after the outage, they may have
-nothing to propose, which is not a failure. Check `/routines` before
-concluding anything.
-
-**Ecosystem** (**272**, **273**, **276**): nexus, hexis and praxis are wired and
-logged clean at boot. **276** is the degraded-mode suite, which means taking
-siblings down on purpose. Worth doing while you are already in there.
-
----
-
-## Housekeeping (one sitting, no box needed)
-
-Four QA tasks will not close no matter how long they sit, because they are
-gated on something that does not exist:
-
-- **125** zenmoney: needs a token you have not minted.
-- **256** Home Assistant: needs HA configured.
-- **257** Bluetooth: BLOCKED, no bluez on the box. Says so in the title.
-- **288** STT golden audio: needs fixtures generated.
-
-Relabel these so they stop reading as backlog. They are not verification work
-that is pending, they are work that has not started.
-
-Same treatment for the five plan-only tasks (**251** MCP, **252** vision,
-**253** hearing, **255** speaker recognition, **259** crawler). A `QA:` prefix on
-a plan is misleading.
-
----
-
-## Needs you specifically
-
-Not QA. These are blocked on a decision or a credential only you have.
-
-| # | what |
-|---|---|
-| 16 | Create the Kuma API key. `-kuma-key uk5_mavpoll-key` in `docker-compose.yml` is still the placeholder. |
-| 15 | Deploy `desk_active` on the desk PC. Blocks **282**. |
-| 122 | Finish the CPT run for Qwen3-1.7B. The persona fix depends on it. |
-| 355 | Deploy the Hexis auth change. Was blocked on Maven being under construction, which it no longer is. The client half is vendored and wired. |
-| 357 | Decide whether entity-existence validation is the permanent target guard or whether blessing lands in Nexus. |
-| 275 | Hexis native API and MCP parity. |
-| — | Decide on `-require-stepup`. Making it the default needs WebAuthn configured first, or it locks you out of your own admin surfaces. See **317**. |
-| — | Three nginx sites bind wildcard `:80` (`acme.conf`, `matrix`, `panel`), so the ecosystem's bind-level protection is not in effect and `allow`/`deny` is carrying it alone. See **354**. |
-
----
-
-## Suggested order
-
-1. Session 1. If the voice loop is broken, nothing else matters.
-2. The `-require-stepup` and Kuma decisions. Five minutes, unblocks **317** fully
-   and **16**.
-3. Session 2. The numbers tell you whether the router is worth its 90x latency.
-4. Housekeeping. Cheap, and it makes the remaining backlog honest.
-5. Session 3, split whichever way suits you.

+// house" is a question about meaning and no word list closes it.
+//
+// The recognisers this replaces were each built the same way: a stem list,
+// an ask test, a device-noun list, and a bail-out list for the neighbouring
+// topic. Every one of their own comments admits the shape. isHomeQuery excluded
+// "погод", "на улице" and "прогноз" by hand because "какая температура на улице"
+// and "какая температура в доме" share their only content word. isNetworkQuery
+// matched "сети" as a whole token because the substring lives inside "посетил",
+// so "сколько машин я посетил" read as a request to scan the LAN. Those are not
+// bugs in the lists, they are the lists being asked to do semantics.
+//
+// So the seeds decide, the same way the personal boundary does
+// (personalboundary.go), against the same embedder and the same query vector the
+// turn already carries. One difference in the gate, and it is deliberate. The
+// boundary claims on the sign of the difference, because there a false claim
+// costs one honest "не знаю". Here a false claim runs a network scan, or names a
+// capability as off on a box where it is simply not the subject — so a topic has
+// to win by a margin, and the losing side of a thin call falls through to the
+// next query source, which is what the narrow regexes were achieving.
+//
+// A fourth subject joined on the same day: isAttentionQuery, "что требует
+// внимания", which is Praxis's operational state and reached the web search
+// before the source existed (Vikunja #475).
+//
+// The regexes stay as the offline floor, unchanged, for a handler with no
+// embedder or a turn whose vector never got computed. They are allowed to remain
+// narrow now precisely because they are no longer the only answer.
+
+// topicLabel — the subjects worth telling apart, plus the one that means none of
