Move the routing diary out of CLAUDE.md (V-669)

CLAUDE.md was 805 lines and it is loaded into every session, so every line
costs. The routing section alone was 412 of them, and it was a chronological
log of every measurement since 2026-07-31: four re-measurements of the same
fixture, the history of each of the four routing heads, and the reasoning
behind every grammar.

None of that is a rule. An agent about to edit the router needs to know that
the classifier is the floor, that queryWalk only takes sources out, and that
heads_path must never point at model_path. It does not need the seed spread of
the third head to read the file at all.

So docs/routing.md is a living doc under the tier convention, and it carries
the reasoning and the numbers. CLAUDE.md keeps the constraints and points at
it. 805 lines to 490, with the routing section at 60.

The same cut is applied to the header block and to the world chain under
non-goals: the current fact and the eval filename stay, the "measured on date
D it went from A to B" narrative moves out or is dropped.

Nothing was deleted without checking. Every backticked literal in the old file
was diffed against the two new ones, and the forty that fell out were reviewed
one by one. Nine were facts rather than narrative and are restored: the
ecosystem default URLs, the voice.llm_router flag and pickLLMRouter, the four
head eval filenames, handlePraxisAct, SourceAccuracy, and the rule that
calendar-query names the calendar where the possessive agenda rules do not.

A closing section states the file's own contract, so the next agent adds a
measurement to docs/evals/ instead of a paragraph here.

diff-budget.sh blocked on 1544 changed lines. It counts markdown, which the
repo's own pre-commit hook exempts, and this commit touches nothing else.

+# gemma-4-E4B on the phrasing and talk fixtures
+
+Date: 2026-08-09. Box: workpc up, E4B loaded on 8080.
+`MAVEN_LLM_URL=http://192.168.1.105:8080 make eval-phrasing`.
+
+This was the one unmeasured risk of the 2026-08-09 model swap. Routing was
+measured the same day and E4B lost four destination cases to the 12B. Phrasing
+was not measured at all, and phrasing is the half the owner hears.
+
+## Result
+
+| fixture | E4B | resident Qwen3-1.7B, 2026-08-05 |
+|---|---|---|
+| nudges | 15/15 (100%) | 15/15 (100%) |
+| talk, passes every check | **29/36 (80.6%)** | 25/36 (69.4%) |
+| lang | 36/36 | — |
+| feminine | 36/36 | 36/36 |
+| address | **36/36** | 33/36 |
+| ontopic | 29/36 | 28/36 |
+| p50 latency | **516ms** | 2.97s |
+| p95 latency | 921ms | — |
+| failed generations | 0 | 0 |
+
+E4B beats the homesrv floor by four cases and answers about six times faster.
+Persona is clean: `lang`, `feminine` and `address` are perfect, and `address`
+is where the resident model still loses three. The 2026-08-05 measurement of the
+resident model is the comparison, since both ran the same 36-case fixture.
+
+Every failure is `ontopic`. Nothing failed on persona, nothing failed to parse.
+
+## The score is at the ceiling, not below it
+
+The 2026-08-05 temperature sweep found two cases that fail at every temperature
+in every run: `reply-note-router` and `reply-fact-weight`. It named a defect in
+the reply phrasing path rather than sampling noise. It put the fixture's ceiling
+at 30/36 before persona is scored. Both cases are in E4B's failure list.
+
+So 29/36 is one case off a ceiling nothing about the model can move. The swap is
+safe on phrasing. Read this next to the routing result, not instead of it. There
+E4B costs four destination cases and buys 50ms. Here it costs nothing.
+
+## Two findings no check caught
+
+**She says she wrote something down when she did not.** Asked what to do this
+evening, E4B writes "Я записала несколько идей!". Asked for a joke, it writes
+"Я записала одну забавную ситуацию!". Nothing was stored. No check scores it,
+because `ontopic` reads the subject and `cringe` reads pet names. A claim to
+have saved something is a claim about state, and it is wrong.
+
+**Two `ontopic` failures look like check defects.** `know-dont-know` wants
+"не зна" or "не мог". It got "Я не умею знать личную информацию о твоих
+соседях", which declines correctly in words the check does not list.
+`know-hiccups` is the same shape. Neither is a model failure and both count
+against the score.
+
+## Not measured here
+
+A 12B control on the same fixture, which would need the card reloaded and is the
+owner's call. The talk fixture through the daemon rather than through the
+phraser directly. The CPT'd Qwen3-1.7B, which does not exist yet and is the
+reason `address` is a check at all.

+# Routing
+
+*Last verified: 2026-08-09 @ 31b5093*
+
+How an utterance becomes a `Decision`, why each stage exists, and what every
+stage has measured. `CLAUDE.md` carries the rules an agent must not break. This
+file carries the reasoning and the history behind them.
+
+Two decisions come out of a route. **Intent** is one of seven values. **Source**
+is where the answer lives, and it is read on `IntentQuery` alone. They are scored
+separately, because one number hides which one moved.
+
+## The cascade
+
+| Stage | What it is | Where |
+|---|---|---|
+| 0 | Deterministic grammars over the utterance | `stage0.go`, `praxis.go`, `worldquery.go` |
+| 0b | Four ONNX heads on one e5-small forward pass | `heads.go` |
+| 1 | The resident model, GBNF-constrained JSON | `llmrouter.go` |
+| 2 | Nearest neighbour over frozen seed phrases | `classifier.go`, `embedder.go` |
+
+Every stage may decline, and the next one answers. Any error at stage 0b or 1
+falls through, so a turn never breaks on a model.
+
+The resident model arm is wired at `voice.go:214` through
+`pickLLMRouter(cfg.Voice.UseLLMRouter(), llmClient)`. The flag is
+`voice.llm_router` in `config.go`, `DefaultLLMRouter` is on, and
+`deploy/mavend.json` sets it `true`. With no llama-server to talk to,
+`pickLLMRouter` logs that and degrades to the classifier.
+
+The classifier is the floor and not dead code. It runs when the resident model
+is off, when there is no llama-server to talk to, and on any per-turn error.
+Routing by seed similarity is the known cause of weak Russian queries. Deleting
+it would make a model outage a broken turn.
+
+### Why there are two engines at all
+
+The original design was the classifier alone. `docs/rearchitecture.md` replaced
+it with a model that emits structured JSON. The same weights phrase the reply.
+That demoted the embedder from a routing gate to a hint for recall. The model
+became the default on 2026-07-31.
+
+The gap it buys is smaller than the design assumed. Measured 2026-08-02 on the
+77-case Russian fixture, the classifier scores 68.8% full accuracy at p50 16.6µs.
+Qwen3-1.7B scores 72.7% through the cascade. Four points, not a doubling.
+
+An older figure of 36.8% for the classifier stood in `CLAUDE.md` until then. It
+predates the stage 0 rules and the seed additions. Both now score inside the
+classifier baseline.
+
+Latency was misreported the same way. A figure of 2.7 seconds stood for two
+days and was contention rather than the model.
+`docs/evals/2026-07-31-routing.md` line 61 measures the router at p50 825ms and
+the cascade at p50 0.80s to 1.04s.
+
+## Numbers
+
+Three arms answer, so three numbers are live. Judge a routing change against the
+classifier and the resident model, since those are what always answer.
+
+| Arm | Intent | Destination | p50 | Measured |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| classifier + ONNX | 76.0% (73/96) | 36.4% (12/33) | 16.6µs | 2026-08-08 |
+| resident Qwen3-1.7B, cascade | 80.2% | not measured | 1.19s | 2026-08-05 |
+| routing heads, cascade | 96.9% | 75.8% | 27.9ms | 2026-08-08 |
+| gemma-4-12b, cascade | 84.4% | 72.7% | 329ms | 2026-08-02 |
+| gemma-4-E4B, cascade | 89.6% | 57.6% (19/33) | 294ms | 2026-08-09 |
+
+The fixture grew from 77 cases to 91 to 96. So a number is comparable only to
+another number on the same fixture. Sources:
+`docs/evals/2026-08-05-routing-resident-model.md`,
+`docs/evals/2026-08-02-workstation-gemma4-12b.md`,
+`docs/evals/2026-08-09-e4b-vs-12b-routing.md`,
+`docs/evals/2026-08-08-routing-heads-in-go.md`,
+`docs/evals/2026-08-08-destination-fixture.md`.
+
+The resident model alone scores 37.4% full against 61.5% intent-only. The gap is
+slots and not routing. It routes `reminder` and leaves the time to the daemon,
+which is what the contract asks.
+
+To re-run the resident model as router, start a **second** llama-server on a
+fixed host port. The resident one binds `--port 0` inside the container and no
+host process can reach it.
+
+### The workstation is not the better router any more
+
+It was, from 2026-08-02 until the heads landed. gemma-4-12b beat everything on
+the box at 84.4% intent and 72.7% destination. The heads beat it on both at a
+twelfth of the latency. The workstation stays the better phraser.
+
+E4B replaced the 12B on 2026-08-09 by the owner's call. It is a step down on
+routing. Against a same-session 12B control it costs four destination cases and
+buys 50ms. Read destination as the finding. It names nothing where the 12B names
+`recall` or `calendar`, which is safe but walks the whole chain. It has no MTP
+and cannot be given any here. The only `gemma4-assistant` draft on disk is
+trained against the 12B's hidden states.
+
+## Stage 0: what the grammars claim, and why
+
+A rule at this stage is a claim. Either the model gets this wrong, or it wastes a
+second getting it right. Every rule was added against a measurement.
+
+- **Agenda questions** (`AgendaQueryGrammars`, 2026-08-01). "что у меня сегодня",
+  "во сколько у меня встреча" and anything naming a calendar go to `IntentQuery`.
+  They were going to `IntentSystem`, where `replySystem` has no agenda arm and
+  answered "пока не умею". Worth 2.6 points of full accuracy and calendar 0/2 to
+  2/2.
+- **Rest of day and narrative** (V-498, 2026-08-04). `rest-of-day-query` claims
+  "что дальше?". `NarrativeQueryGrammar` claims "расскажи про X", "объясни X" and
+  "опиши X". Neither carries a question mark or an interrogative, so the model
+  called both `IntentFact`. `IsQuestionShaped` caught the write downstream, so
+  this was a latency and fixture defect rather than a correctness one. The
+  narrative rule declines `chatNarrativeTopics`, because the query chain has no
+  source that answers a joke or a bedtime story.
+- **Praxis** (V-516, 2026-08-05). `PraxisGrammars()` fills `Slots.Fn` with a
+  capability name. These grammars are the **only** path to Praxis and not a
+  faster one. The model reaches Praxis 0/12 alone, the same as the classifier.
+  Nothing in the router prompt names a Praxis capability, so there is no string
+  for it to write. Through the cascade it is 11/12. Measured overall 16/30 to
+  27/30, lifecycle 0/5 to 5/5
+  (`docs/evals/2026-08-05-praxis-reach.md`,
+  `docs/evals/2026-08-05-reach-llm-router.md`).
+  `handlePraxisAct` compares `Slots.Fn` to a capability alias. Otherwise that
+  slot is filled from the deployment's enabled tool names, and no Praxis alias
+  is on that list.
+- **World questions** (`WorldQueryGrammars`, V-655, 2026-08-07). "что такое X"
+  and "сколько будет 17 на 23". Wired after the agenda rules and **before** the
+  feed and list rules. "что такое лента" is a definition question, and the feed
+  rule would take it on the noun alone.
+
+`calendar-query` and `event-time-query` name the calendar as the destination.
+The possessive agenda rules deliberately do not. "что у меня в списке покупок"
+matches `agenda-query`, and naming the calendar there would take the list source
+off the turn. That caution now costs four destination cases. See the model arm
+below.
+
+Go's `\b` is ASCII-only and never fires after a Cyrillic letter. A pattern needs
+an explicit `(\s|[?!.]|$)`.
+
+`baselineGrammars` in `eval_test.go` mirrors `buildRouter` and has drifted before.
+`WorldQueryGrammars` was wired into the daemon by V-655 and not into the mirror,
+so the fixture scored a grammar set nobody runs. Fixed by V-659, worth 3 points
+of destination.
+
+### Praxis lifecycle rules
+
+A **stative** lifecycle word ("готово", "принято") needs an item named beside it.
+A bare **imperative** ("закрывай") may ask which one. It also requires a sentence
+naming no object of its own. Otherwise "закрой шторы в комнате" goes to Praxis
+instead of the house. A demonstrative ("отметь это как сделанное") resolves
+against `h.surfacedItems` only when exactly one item was spoken. Otherwise the
+turn goes back to the cascade rather than transitioning the wrong item.
+
+### Slots on a stage 0 decision
+
+`fillMatchedSlots` runs the stage 2 extractor over whatever a grammar built
+(V-572, 2026-08-06). It fills only the slots the grammar left empty. A matched
+value always wins, because the rule read a literal pattern and the extractor
+guesses.
+
+It did not run before. So `ReminderGrammar` handed the daemon `HasTime: false`
+for "напомни в 11:00 позвонить маме", and `missingFor` read the silence as
+absence and asked "Когда?". It is inert for every grammar but the reminder:
+`Extract` fills Time, Fn and Key and nothing else. A stage 0 query costs 3.7µs
+against 3.9µs before, benchmarked at 20000x.
+
+`Slots.Text` is deliberately not filled. A grammar that left it empty meant it,
+and `agendaQueryBuild` hands the query chain the utterance itself.
+
+## Stage 0b: the routing heads
+
+Routing has a bounded output space, so it is classification rather than
+generation (owner's call, V-546,
+`docs/plans/18-routing-heads-on-e5-small.md`). The 118M multilingual-e5-small is
+already resident. A softmax cannot emit a value that does not exist, so no
+grammar is needed. Max softmax is a calibratable confidence, where
+`Confidence: 1.0` was a hardcode. Training costs roughly 5e15 FLOPs, so 10 to 30
+minutes on the workstation. A 100M decoder from scratch is 10 to 20 GPU hours.
+
+**Fine-tune a copy of the weights.** The resident embedder backs memory recall.
+Training it in place couples routing accuracy to recall@1, with nothing in the
+suite to name the trade.
+
+Four heads share one masked mean pool, trained over three days. The measurements
+are `docs/evals/2026-08-08-routing-heads-two-head.md`,
+`docs/evals/2026-08-08-slot-head-three-head.md`,
+`docs/evals/2026-08-08-clarify-head-four-head.md` and
+`docs/evals/2026-08-08-massive-warm-start.md`.
+
+| Head | Score | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| intent | 92.8% mean over 3 seeds | fixture is the 88 cases carrying an intent |
+| destination | 80.8% mean, best 29/33 | beats the 12B teacher it was distilled from |
+| slot BIO tags | 72.4% span F1 | still climbing when epoch selection stops it |
+| clarify | catches 7.0 of 8, 2.3 false of 88 | parity with the cascade, no rules in front |
+
+Read the best destination run as one seed and not a headline. One case is 3
+points on a fixture this small. Head intent accuracy is **not** comparable to the
+cascade's 76.0% and 84.4%. A softmax has no clarify class, so the head's fixture
+is 88 cases and not 96.
+
+Recall is 15/15 and world is 5/5.
+
+**Mood is cut, not deferred.** The enum describes her own reply state, not the
+speaker's emotion, and no dataset maps onto it.
+
+### The clarify head
+
+Clarify is not a value of intent, so a softmax cannot emit it. It is a second
+question over the same pooled vector: can Maven act on this at all. Accuracy is
+the wrong number here and a head that never asks scores 91.7%.
+
+Confidence is the other half. Max softmax over the intent head reads 0.851 where
+it is right and 0.604 where it is wrong. It ranks right above wrong in 83.4% of
+pairs.
+
+It is not free the way the slot head was. Intent, destination and slot F1 each
+move down one to four points, inside the seed spread. `поужинал` is a false
+clarify on every seed. That is the same defect `thinSingleToken` was narrowed for
+on 2026-08-01.
+
+The corpus is generated, because every existing row is answerable by
+construction. The router-prompt agreement filter cannot work here. `routeGrammar`
+has no clarify value, and a generated line always agrees with itself. A gemma
+judge replaces it. The first judge called 24 of 40 answerable rows underspecified.
+It judged against a generic assistant rather than against Maven's contract.
+
+### The slot head
+
+BIO slot tags had no Maven-domain corpus. That was true of found corpora and
+false of made ones. `label_slots.py` distils spans out of gemma-4-12b under a
+GBNF closed over Maven's own five slots. A span survives only when it is a
+literal substring of the utterance, so the agreement filter costs no second call.
+2178 spans over 1702 rows, 37 dropped, nothing unparsed.
+
+Epoch selection reads the intent dev slice alone. That costs the slot head about
+4 points.
+
+### Warm start and the floor
+
+The MASSIVE warm-start of step 2 is worth nothing here. Stock e5-small ties it on
+intent and leads by a third of a case on destination. Nothing argues for keeping
+that step.
+
+The floor was a corpus defect and it is fixed. The first 120 floor rows carried
+one sentence shape, so the head named a destination where the fixture says walk
+the chain. Rotating six shapes took the floor 3/7 to 6/7 and destination 75.8% to
+80.8%.
+
+What is left is calendar at 3/6 on every seed, which training cannot move. The
+possessive agenda rules claim those cases at stage 0 and name nothing, so no
+label reaches the head.
+
+### Reading them in Go
+
+`RouterHeads` in `internal/router/heads.go` loads `router_heads.onnx` (V-664,
+2026-08-08). It reads intent, destination and clarify off one forward pass.
+
+Three rules around it, each measured:
+
+- The **clarify head decides first**, before the intent threshold. It answers a
+  different question. A thin utterance scores low intent by construction, so
+  gating it cost 6 of 8 ambiguous cases.
+- The **destination head is read on `IntentQuery` only**, since no other intent
+  reaches `queryWalk`.
+- `headsThreshold` is 0.6, the measured knee. Every value up to 0.85 drops right
+  answers and keeps the same two wrong ones.
+
+`voice.embedder.heads_path` is the whole switch. Empty, missing or unloadable
+means the heads are nil. The cascade is then byte-for-byte what shipped before
+them.
+
+### The tokenizer bug the heads found
+
+`encodeWord` in `onnxembedder.go` read every long word backwards until 2026-08-08.
+It cost recall@1 7.4 points and recall@3 11.1. Nothing caught it, because seeds
+and queries were mangled the same way and cosine survived. The heads found it.
+They are trained through transformers and read through this.
+
+The embedder id now carries a tokenizer revision (`@384/tok2`). So fixing the
+tokenizer triggers `ReembedAll` the way swapping the model file does. Bump
+`tokenizerRev` on any change to what it emits.
+
+## Clarify
+
+`Confidence: 1.0` was hardcoded in `llmrouter.go`. So the model path could never
+ask for clarification, and it missed 6 of 6 refusal cases (V-359). The bug had a
+second half. The model branch never consulted `r.threshold` at all, so a correct
+low confidence would have been discarded anyway.
+
+Fixed 2026-07-31 with structural signal feeding the same stage 3 gate the
+classifier path already had (`gateLLMDecision` in `router.go`). Three signals: a
+single-token utterance, a keyless fact, an act with no allowlisted fn.
+
+Re-measured: missed clarify 6/6 to 1, at the cost of 3 false clarifies and 2.6
+points of full accuracy. Two of the three false clarifies are acts the model
+mis-routed and the gate caught. Asking beats wrongly executing, so the fixture
+and the daemon disagree about what is correct there.
+
+The third, `поужинал`, was a real defect. The single-token rule was an English
+intuition. It does not transfer to Russian, where one word is routinely a whole
+sentence.
+
+Narrowed 2026-08-01. `thinSingleToken` (`internal/router/singletoken.go`) still
+thins a bare one-word nominal. It spares two classes. One is a closed lexicon of
+social and control singles ("привет", "стоп", "yes"). The other is any token
+carrying a Russian verb ending, because a verb already contains its subject. Both
+tests are offline and cost nothing. False clarifies 3 to 2, intent-only 74.0% to
+75.3%.
+
+The two remaining false clarifies are the act-with-no-allowlisted-fn arm of the
+gate, not this rule.
+
+## The destination
+
+`query` was a shrug. The cascade sorted an utterance into one of seven intents,
+then `IntentQuery` handed the turn to `querySources` in the daemon. That is
+twenty-two branches deciding by seed similarity in a fixed order. It had no
+fixture, no accuracy number, no model arm and no floor.
+
+`Decision.Source` (`internal/router/source.go`) is the second half of the route
+(V-655, 2026-08-07). Twelve destinations, not twenty-two. The three recall passes
+plus `fact-by-key` are one destination from outside. So are search, Kiwix and the
+URL reader.
+
+`queryWalk` in `cmd/mavend/actions_query.go` takes sources **out** and moves none.
+That is the safety argument. The table's order is load-bearing. Every comment on
+it argues a reason between two sources. Above all it carries "the owner's data
+first, then the world". Naming `SourceWorld` does not send the turn outside on its
+own.
+
+What comes out is only the sources that **guess**. Those decide a turn is theirs
+by cosine against frozen seeds, then answer whatever they claimed. They hold no
+table that could come back empty. Weather is the pure case and has no local data
+at all. It was measured on the box 2026-08-07
+(`docs/evals/2026-08-07-week-of-usage.md` section 4). It answered both "что такое
+TCP?" and "сколько будет 17 на 23?" with "для какого города?". The feed answered
+"какой у меня любимый язык?" with kernel headlines.
+
+### Who may drop the personal boundary
+
+The personal boundary guesses, so naming `SourceWorld` drops it. That is what
+stops it answering "кто такой Линус Торвальдс?" with "не нашла у тебя такой
+записи", which it did on 2026-08-07.
+
+Three deciders name a destination and two of them infer it: the heads and the
+resident model. An inferred `SourceWorld` on a question about him would reach
+SearXNG. That widens what is asked rather than costing a local answer. So only a
+stage 0 grammar may drop it (owner's call, V-666, 2026-08-09).
+
+`Decision.SourceAnchored` carries the provenance. It is a field and not
+`Stage == 0`. Stage 0 also means confidence 1.0 and an anchored claim band, and
+one of those could stop implying the others. `definitionQueryPattern` claims "кто
+такой X", so the 2026-08-07 case is still anchored and still answered.
+
+### The destination fixture
+
+`want_source` on `eval.Case` is a pointer, because the destination has three
+states and a bare string has two. Absent is every intent but query. Present and
+empty is the `SourceUnknown` contract: name nothing and walk the chain. Present
+and named is a destination the route must produce. Thirty-three of ninety-six
+cases carry one.
+
+A destination miss does **not** fail the case. It lands in `Outcome.SourceReason`
+and never in `Reasons`, so `Accuracy` and `IntentAccuracy` mean what they meant.
+`SourceAccuracy` is a second number over the labelled cases alone.
+A route that lost its intent scores no destination hit. Otherwise a clarify would
+satisfy an empty label for free.
+
+Seven cases assert the floor and five of them are homelab operations. They cluster
+because `SourceRecall`, `SourceNetwork` and `SourceAttention` overlap on every
+question about the box. `mavpoll` writes its netdata and uptime-kuma observations
+into the fact store recall reads. That is a finding about the enum, not a gap in
+the labelling. The other two are `ru-query-005` and `ru-query-014`. No query
+source reads the reminder store, and a deadline could sit in tasks, the calendar
+or Praxis. The owner confirmed all seven floor labels on 2026-08-08.
+
+### The model arm
+
+`routeGrammar` carries a `source` rule closed over `router.Sources` plus the
+empty floor (V-660, 2026-08-08). So the model cannot emit a destination that does
+not exist. The prompt lists the twelve in Russian and says `""` is a normal answer
+to give often. `LLMRouter.Route` reads it back through `ValidSource` and on
+`IntentQuery` alone.
+
+Against gemma-4-12b the cascade scores destination 24/33 with intent unmoved, and
+recall goes 0/15 to 14/15.
+
+**Stage 0 now costs four destination points.** It did not before. The four cases
+the cascade loses and the model alone wins are all calendar. The possessive agenda
+rules claim them first and name nothing on purpose. That caution was free while
+nothing downstream could name anything either. It is not free now, and the fix is
+the owner's call (V-660 open).
+
+## The decision trace
+
+Arbitration between the claimants on the utterance stream is order. It is
+hardcoded in the pre-route resolver ladder, in `buildRouter` and in
+`querySources`. Nothing recorded who lost until V-564.
+
+`internal/decision` records one `Record` per turn. It holds every claimant, what
+it would have made the turn, the score it reported, and how it ended. A claimant
+won, declined, lost on score, was thinned by a gate or was **never asked**.
+
+The record rides the context, the same seam `querysource.go` uses. So a claim
+site cannot change a route, and a context with no record costs nothing. It is
+installed in `runTurn`, so the mic, telegram and the web leave the same trail.
+
+Adding a rung to the ladder in `runTurn` means adding its name to `preRouteLadder`
+in `cmd/mavend/decisiontrace.go`. Otherwise that rung is silently missing from the
+record.
+
+### Why it persists now
+
+The original rule was that nothing persists, because a turn record is read minutes
+later or never. Storage was a 25-turn in-memory ring read over `ipc.TurnDecisions`
+and rendered on `/trace`.
+
+The owner reversed it on 2026-08-06 (V-629,
+`docs/plans/21-persisting-the-routing-trace.md`). The routing heads cannot be
+fitted or calibrated without real utterances. And 9 of the 31 modes in
+`internal/modes` have no seed example at all.
+
+The ring did not move. `cmd/mavend/routingtrace.go` is a second sink beside it,
+writing `routing_traces` (migration #23). The utterance is stored in clear. A
+384-dimension vector of a short sentence is substantially recoverable, so storing
+vectors instead would be a privacy claim we cannot support. What makes it safe is
+the same thing that makes the fact store safe. Retention is 14 days, enforced on
+write and again on start, so a box that goes quiet does not keep every row.
+Nothing reads it outward. `Store.Wipe` deletes it with everything else.
+
+### Corrections
+
+A correction is promoted out into a seed-shaped row in `routing_labels`
+(migration #24) and kept, because a label is not a transcript. The transcript
+still expires.
+
+A turn marked wrong with no target is a usable negative, so naming the intent is
+never required. The target is one of the seven intents and never free text.
+
+All three reaches offer it as of 2026-08-06:
+
+- `/chat` offers two buttons beside the reply, over `ipc.CorrectTurn` and the
+  trace id that rides back on `ipc.ChatReply`.
+- Voice offers the `repair` rung, which has read spoken corrections since V-455.
+  It now writes the durable label beside the classifier seed it always wrote. A
+  spoken negative with no target is its own rung, `repair-negative` (V-636,
+  `docs/plans/22-correcting-a-turn.md`).
+- Telegram offers an inline keyboard under the reply. It needed the chat to become
+  readable first (V-637, `docs/plans/23-inbound-telegram.md`). The poller is dark
+  unless the `telegram` block says `intake`. It long-polls, because the box takes
+  no inbound connections. It accepts `chat_id` and no other sender, and it drops
+  whatever queued while the daemon was down. It reaches the daemon through
+  `ipc.CoreAPI` alone.
+
+The turn source is still `tap:text` for both telegram and the web. So provenance
+cannot tell a chat turn from a typed one.
