Basic Memory v0.21.6 first sync over the live memory dir (steward-authorized live-dir trial, Option A 2026-06-06): adds permalink: to frontmatter, refolds long YAML description lines, strips final newlines. Bodies untouched — verified via full diff classification. From this commit forward, any diff in claude/memory shows only what Basic Memory or the session writes. Trial design: MemPalace untouched as incumbent; git status check on this dir at every wrap; end-of-day evaluation (recall quality, sync robustness, rebuild-from-files, malformed-file behavior).

description: Point-in-time state of the L1 stack from the steward's wrap-time question.
|
||
Seb quiet since ~2026-04-20 on BMF + CapableMind-AI; the active L1-stack movement
|
||
the steward perceives is likely MemPalace (Igor's work). Near-term workable items
|
||
for steward-shape execution, items waiting on Seb, and
|
||
metadata:
|
||
node_type: memory
|
||
type: project

# BMF + CapableMind-AI backlog state — 2026-05-22 (midday)
|
||
|
||
Origin: steward asked at midday wrap-time *"I see that Seb has been at work on bettermemories/capableMind — any L1 progress? Anything I can work on there in the near future?"* This file captures the read, since the answer matters for L1 work prioritization and the steward asked it be surfaced for next-session reorientation.
|
||
|
||
**Read before composing the L1 portion of any briefing.** Refresh by running:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
git -C ~/_Dev/BetterMemories.io fetch origin --quiet && git -C ~/_Dev/BetterMemories.io log --pretty="%h %an %ai %s" origin/main -15
|
||
git -C ~/_Dev/CapableMind-AI fetch origin --quiet && git -C ~/_Dev/CapableMind-AI log --pretty="%h %an %ai %s" origin/main -15
|
||
gh issue list --repo CapableMind-ai/betterMemories_app --state open --limit 25
|
||
gh pr list --repo CapableMind-ai/betterMemories_app --state open --limit 10
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If a refresh changes the picture materially, supersede this file.

## §1 — What Seb has actually done recently
|
||
|
||
**BMF (BetterMemories.io):**
|
||
- Last Seb commit: **2026-04-17** (`trial/storage-sqlite-lance`, npm install cross-platform fix)
|
||
- Last Seb commit landing on `main`: **2026-04-19** (`ac1673f` over-context embed batches + char cap to 1000)
|
||
- Big April push: 2026-04-18 (undici fixes, slot disabling, teacher enrichment, BM_CPU_PAUSE_THRESHOLD)
|
||
|
||
**CapableMind-AI:**
|
||
- Last Seb commit: **2026-04-20** (`8584c64` BO spec v0.2 — 7 review-pass fixes)
|
||
- Before that: dense 2026-04-15→18 work on plans 001-008 + BBF spec reorg
|
||
|
||
**Bottom line:** Seb has been **quiet on the L1 stack for ~5 weeks** as of 2026-05-22. The steward's perception that "Seb has been at work" may be either (a) memory of mid-April activity, (b) confusion with MemPalace activity (see §3), or (c) work in a non-public surface I don't have visibility on.

## §2 — Status of comment-posted / awaiting-Seb-response PENDING items
|
||
|
||
| PENDING | Issue | Comment posted | Days waiting | Status |
|
||
|---------|-------|----------------|--------------|--------|
|
||
| PENDING-19 | #165 H2 battery silent recall fail | 2026-05-14 (REVIEWED-21) | 8 days | OPEN — no Seb response |
|
||
| PENDING-21 | #167 H4 hook recall + logchain pollution | 2026-05-14 (REVIEWED-23, comment-4449244331) | 8 days | OPEN — no Seb response |
|
||
| PENDING-17 | (no issue — proposal) Epistemic Integrity (REVIEWED-19) | (authorized 2026-04-03) | ~7 weeks | Awaiting Seb on 6 engineering questions before code |
|
||
|
||
**Read:** the H2/H4 comments have aged past the "1 week then escalate to Option A (sync conversation)" threshold per REVIEWED-21 + REVIEWED-23. **Worth a direct ping to Seb, not another comment.** PENDING-17 is older still and on the critical L0 readiness path.

## §3 — MemPalace as the actual active L1-stack movement
|
||
|
||
Per this morning's MemPalace status checks (×2 across the β session):
|
||
|
||
- **3.3.5 release** cut 2026-05-09/10 by Igor Lins e Silva (maintainer); fatkobra + sjhddh + JPdeB61 also active
|
||
- **3.3.6 release-prep not yet branched** as of 2026-05-22 evening
|
||
- **develop +143 since v3.3.5** as of yesterday; **+13 more between morning and evening checks**
|
||
- **#1440 (bash 3.2 mapfile)** + **#1538 (120 GiB upsert)** merged to develop 2026-05-19 → currently fixes the crashes the steward was hitting
|
||
- **#1540 MERGED** partial CHUNK_SIZE coverage (audit pathway + ~3 sites of 4)
|
||
- **#1569 still OPEN + CONFLICTING** for the 4 remaining crash sites including `tool_diary_write` — needs rebase
|
||
- `tool_diary_write` crash exposure remains live on the current local install (3.3.5)
|
||
|
||
**This is what the steward likely perceives as "L1 progress."** It IS L1-adjacent (the memory substrate) but the work is by Igor + community, not Seb.

## §4 — Open BMF issues that are steward-shape (mechanical, not architectural)
|
||
|
||
From `gh issue list` 2026-05-22, candidates for steward execution in the same shape as PR #172 (H3 fix):
|
||
|
||
| Issue | Title | Shape | Estimated |
|
||
|-------|-------|-------|-----------|
|
||
| **#170** | tracking: BMF backlog-review standing instructions (for David's CC) | **Canonical tracker** — open this first | — |
|
||
| #168 | docs: BM25 score-range comment at query-router.ts:542-543 is factually wrong | Documentation fix | ~10 min |
|
||
| #128 | fix: entity module levenshtein query fails on entities with NONE name_lower | Mechanical bug | ~30 min |
|
||
| #127 | fix: circle max_members defaults to 0, making unbounded circles impossible to join | Mechanical bug | ~30 min |
|
||
| #138 | Vector module embeds bootstrap self-observation events on fresh install | Diagnostic + fix | 1-2h |
|
||
| #171 | circle-forward: buffered-retry behavior for offline peers needs validation | Test work | 1-2h |
|
||
| #161 | GET /v1/circles/:id/members should expose member_base_url | Mechanical feature | ~1h |
|
||
|
||
Architectural / design-discussion items (NOT steward-shape — Seb's call):
|
||
- #148 [DESIGN DISCUSSION] Summarization granularity, purpose, cost, quality
|
||
- #145 [PROPOSAL] Connector-agnostic summarizer contract
|
||
- #147 Restore quality-summarization path for Obsidian notes
|
||
- #144 [HARDENING] Port operations.ts state-machine to SQLite + InvalidTransitionError
|
||
- #115 fix: local BMF MCP stdio conflicts with HTTP server + SurrealKV lock
|
||
|
||
Tracking-shaped (read, don't act):
|
||
- #159 Ollama keep_alive: -1 OOM with multiple slot models on 16 GB
|
||
- #152 [TRACKING] Reconciliation behavior change idempotent replacements in migration

## §5 — Drift correction logged at midday
|
||
|
||
The midday session's wake-up briefing reported BMF as "0 ahead" with PR #172 "already filed" — **but #172 was MERGED 2026-05-14** (commit `345914c` on origin/main). My local `main` was stale (never pulled); the `git log --oneline -5` in the wake-up's loose-ends check showed local state, not origin state. Same drift family as today's `trust-prose-over-read-makefile` + `unreferenced-by-code-claim-on-narrow-grep-scope`: claim made on coverage too narrow for its scope.
|
||
|
||
**Wake-up skill improvement opportunity:** the §2d git-state check should `git fetch --quiet` before `git log` per repo so origin movement is visible. Currently it's not. Surface as feedback/skill-update candidate when continuity-skill work resumes.
|
||

||
|
||
## §6 — Recommended steward shape for near-term L1 work
|
||
|
||
If steward wants L1 work in next session:
|
||
|
||
1. **Open #170 first** — it's the canonical CC-backlog tracking issue; presumably names the priority order
|
||
2. **Pick one mechanical bug** from §4 (#128 or #127 are cleanest cuts)
|
||
3. **Direct ping to Seb on H2/H4** (#165, #167) — not another comment; they've aged 8 days
|
||
4. **Don't autonomously push** the H2/H4 design call forward — Seb's territory
|
||
|
||
If steward wants to step back from L1 and continue ARC Stage F work, that's also coherent — L1 is paused on Seb-shaped decisions for 3 of the 4 active PENDING items.

## §7 — When this file goes stale
|
||
|
||
This is a point-in-time read. Refresh signals:
|
||
- Any new Seb commit on BMF main or CapableMind-AI main (run §0 refresh commands)
|
||
- Any new merged PR on betterMemories_app
|
||
- Steward direct contact with Seb that changes the H2/H4 picture
|
||
- MemPalace 3.3.6 release-prep cut
|
||
|
||
If reading this file >3 weeks from 2026-05-22, refresh first; do not cite stale findings. |
