Faithful port of mcp-server/relevance.ts (Rust observer's adjacency-
pollution filter). Same 5-signal scoring, same default threshold 0.3.
Adds POST /v1/matrix/relevance endpoint via matrixd.
Scoring signals (additive, can sign-flip):
path_match +1.0 chunk source/doc_id encodes focus.path
filename_match +0.6 chunk text mentions focus's filename
defined_match +0.6 chunk text mentions focus.defined_symbols
token_overlap +0.4 jaccard of non-stopword tokens
prefix_match +0.3 chunk source shares first-2-segment prefix
import_penalty -0.5 mentions ONLY imported symbols, no defined ones
What this does and doesn't do:
- DOES filter code-aware corpora (eventually lakehouse_arch_v1,
lakehouse_symbols_v1, scrum_findings_v1) — drops chunks about
code the focus file IMPORTS rather than DEFINES, the
"adjacency pollution" pattern that makes a reviewer LLM
hallucinate imported-crate internals as belonging to the focus
- DOES NOT meaningfully filter staffing data — the candidates
reality test 2026-04-29 had "exact skill match buried at #3"
which is a different problem (semantic-only ranking dominated
by secondary text). Staffing needs structured filtering
(status gates, location gates) that lives outside this
package — future work, not in SPEC §3.4 yet
Headline smoke assertion: focus = crates/queryd/src/db.go which
defines Connector and imports catalogd::Registry. The filter
scores:
Connector chunk: +0.68 (defined_match fires, kept)
Registry chunk: -0.46 (import_only penalty fires, dropped)
unrelated junk: 0.00 (no signals, dropped)
That's a 1.14-point gap between what we ARE and what we IMPORT —
the entire purpose of the filter.
Tests:
- 9 unit tests in internal/matrix/relevance_test.go covering
Tokenize, Jaccard, ExtractDefinedSymbols (Rust + TS),
ExtractImportedSymbols, FilePrefix, ScoreRelevance per-signal,
FilterChunks threshold splitting, and the headline
AdjacencyPollutionScenario
- scripts/relevance_smoke.sh integration smoke (3 assertions PASS):
adjacency-pollution scenario, empty-chunks 400, threshold honored
13-smoke regression sweep all green (D1-D6, G1, G1P, G2,
storaged_cap, pathway, matrix, relevance).
