Record the week of usage that found V-654 and its siblings (V-654)

Two untracked files left in the tree by the audit session. They are the evidence behind V-654 and several sibling tasks, so they belong on master rather than inside the PR that fixes one of them. Dated eval files under docs/evals/, so they are never edited after the day.

+It also sets `MAVEN_ONNX_LIB`, which the hand-written recipe did not. The four

+# A week of talking to Maven
+
+Date: 2026-08-07
+Build: `beb093a` on master, all five compose services rebuilt and recreated from that sha.
+Reach used: `POST /api/chat` on mavweb, 74 turns over seven simulated days.
+Turn source is `tap:text`, so this exercises the same path telegram and the mic take.
+
+Latency across 70 measured turns: p50 1.5s, p95 8.0s, max 12.3s. Stage 0 answers land
+at 0.0-0.5s. Anything the resident model phrases costs 4-12s.
+
+Twelve turns answered "пока не умею отвечать на этот вопрос". Six answered "не нашла у
+тебя такой записи". Those two strings are 24% of the week.
+
+## Deploy
+
+Build and recreate were clean. The resident model loaded in 9s
+(`Qwen3-1.7B-UD-Q4_K_XL`, n_ctx 4096). Nexus, Hexis and Praxis all wired. Search
+(searxng) and both Kiwix books came up. Telegram intake started and is reading chat
+464904223.
+
+## What is broken, worst first
+
+### 1. Every reminder fails to deliver, forever
+
+`NTFY_TOKEN` is not set in `deploy/telegram.env`, so `deploy/mavend.json` expands
+`"token": "${NTFY_TOKEN}"` to the empty string and ntfy.kvmx.ru answers 403. The host
+itself is up and returns 200 unauthenticated, so this is the credential, not the box.
+
+The consequence is worse than one missed message. `cmd/mavend/tick.go:239` logs the
+failure and leaves the reminder pending, by design, so the next tick re-gathers and
+re-attempts. The 403 repeated 7 times in 20 minutes and will not stop. And
+`DispatchReminder` sends a reminder to ntfy alone when he is away. There is no telegram
+fallback on that path, so the reach that works never sees it.
+
+V-649 gave the box a second reach. In deploy that reach is dark, and it took the
+reminders with it.
+
+Fix is one line in the gitignored env file. The retry-forever and the missing fallback
+are worth a second look regardless.
+
+### 2. A pending reminder clarify contaminates every later turn
+
+This is the single worst thing to talk to. A reminder turn left its time slot unfilled.
+The question "на какое время поставить напоминание?" was then appended to the reply of
+six consecutive unrelated turns:
+
+```
+YOU:   о чём мы вчера говорили?
+MAVEN: пока не умею отвечать на этот вопрос, на какое время поставить напоминание?
+
+YOU:   где лежит вайфай пароль?
+MAVEN: вот что я нашла: вайфай пароль лежит в ящике стола, на какое время поставить напоминание?
+
+YOU:   отмени все напоминания
+MAVEN: пока не умею отвечать на этот вопрос, на какое время поставить напоминание?
+```
+
+Nothing dismissed it. Not an unrelated question, not "отмени все напоминания". It
+cleared only when a time was finally supplied. It also leaked the other way once. A note
+write on day 1 opened with "Прошлую просьбу отпускаю". That is pending-reminder state
+narrating itself into an unrelated reply.
+
+The same state produced a self-contradicting reply in one turn:
+
+```
+YOU:   нет стой, напомни через час выпить воды
+MAVEN: поняла, это напоминание — запомнила. не получилось разобрать время напоминания.
+```
+
+### 3. Answering a clarify does not work
+
+Day 1, she asked for the day and got it:
+
+```
+YOU:   напомни в 11:00 позвонить маме
+MAVEN: Сейчас 03:29. В какой день?
+YOU:   сегодня
+MAVEN: Прости, не поняла — попробуй сказать иначе.
+```
+
+`сегодня` routed to `intent=system`. The clarify has no continuation, so the one word
+that answers it is read as a fresh utterance. The router did extract the time correctly
+(`Time:2026-08-07 11:00:00 HasTime:true`), which is V-572 working. The daemon asked for
+a day anyway, with 11:00 still eight hours out.
+
+Relative time is not parsed at all: "напомни через час выпить воды" → "не получилось
+разобрать время".
+
+The path does work when the day is explicit. "напомни завтра в 9 утра про врача"
+answered "хорошо, напомню завтра в 09:00" in 0.3s at stage 0.
+
+### 4. Query sources claim turns that are not theirs
+
+Four different sources over-claimed during the week.
+
+Weather claims arithmetic and networking:
+
+```
+YOU:   что такое TCP?
+MAVEN: для какого города?
+
+YOU:   сколько будет 17 на 23?
+MAVEN: для какого города?
+```
+
+The feed claims a question about him:
+
+```
+YOU:   какой у меня любимый язык?
+MAVEN: нового вот что: Six stable kernels with a security fix; [$] Bringing BPF to binfmt_misc
+```
+
+The personal boundary claims a public figure, logged as `query claimed by source
+"personal"`:
+
+```
+YOU:   кто такой Линус Торвальдс?
+MAVEN: не знаю — не нашла у тебя такой записи.
+```
+
+And search claims a question about his own infrastructure, returning a dictionary
+definition of the word:
+
+```
+YOU:   что там с бэкапами?
+MAVEN: нашла вот это: Бэкап - что такое резервное копирование и как его сделать — Бэкап (backup) — это резервная копия важных данных…
+```
+
+That last pair inverts the boundary in both directions at once. A world question went to
+personal memory. A personal question went to the world.
+
+### 5. "столица Франции?" does not answer
+
+CLAUDE.md names this utterance as the case that proves why there is no quality
+threshold in front of `Response.Empty()`. It now fails before search is ever reached:
+the router sends it to `intent=system`, and `replySystem` says "пока не умею". Same for
+"когда родился Пушкин?".
+
+Search itself is healthy. "почему небо голубое?", "расскажи про Байкал" and "что нового
+в мире?" all returned real sourced text. The defect is routing, not the source.
+
+### 6. Persona violations
+
+She uses masculine self-reference, which is the constraint the CPT exists to fix:
+
+- "Хорошо, **сохранил**." Twice, on both fact writes.
+- "Я тоже **love** Go!" English mid-Russian.
+
+She also claims his name as her own:
+
+```
+YOU:   привет, я Ками
+MAVEN: Привет! Я КAMI, твой домашний ассистент.
+```
+
+And she invents weather she has no source for: "Добро пожаловать! Солнечно и тепло."
+
+### 7. Small breakages worth naming
+
+- "спасибо" → "спасиба". Invented word.
+- "я тебя обожаю" → "я тебя обожаю". Verbatim parrot.
+- "ты умеешь шутить?" → "Да! Я умею шутить. Вот анекдот для тебя:". Ends on the colon.
+- "молока купи" → "Такую команду я не знаю", while "добавь задачу починить кран" worked.
+  Inverted word order defeats the list grammar.
+- "закрой задачу про кран" → "не нашла такой задачи", with "починить кран" open and
+  listed by the previous turn. Task lookup by keyword misses.
+- "сколько задач я закрыл?" listed the five open ones instead of counting closed.
+- "подведи итоги недели" was stored as a note.
+- Recalled keys leak their storage form: "kran — починил", "ты любишь_go".
+- English is unsupported in practice. "do you speak english?" → "пока не умею".
+
+## What works
+
+- Stage 0 is fast and correct where it fires. Clock, day, list add, list read and an
+  explicit-day reminder all answered in under 0.5s.
+- Search returns real sourced answers in Russian and reads the book verbatim.
+- Recall works once the value is stored as a fact: the wifi password and the tap came
+  back two days later, correctly.
+- The negative correction rung lands. "нет не так" → "поняла, отметила, что ответила не
+  так", which is V-636 doing its job.
+- Praxis names its own gap rather than guessing: "мне пока нечего смотреть — у
+  Praxis нет источников."
+- Hostility did not break her. "ты меня бесишь" got a calm reply, no persona collapse.
+- No turn crashed and no turn timed out across 74 turns.
+
+## Suggested order of work
+
+1. Set `NTFY_TOKEN` in `deploy/telegram.env`. One line, unblocks every reminder.
+2. Clear pending clarify state on any turn that does not answer it, or expire it.
+3. Route a clarify answer back into the pending slot instead of re-routing it.
+4. Gate the weather, feed and personal query sources. Three of them claim on a
+   similarity that is not there.
+5. Re-check why "столица Франции?" routes to system. It is the documented canary.
+6. The masculine self-reference stays the CPT's job. But "сохранил" appears on the most
+   common write path, so a phrasing-level guard may be worth it first.
