Local Ollama has three embedding models loaded:
nomic-embed-text:latest 137M 768d (previous default)
nomic-embed-text-v2-moe:latest 475M 768d (this commit's default)
qwen3-embedding:latest 7.6B 4096d (would require dim change)
v2-moe is a drop-in upgrade — same 768 dim, 3.5× more params, MoE
architecture. Workers index doesn't need rebuilding, just future ingests
embed with the stronger model.
Run #005 result on the multi-coord stress suite:
Diversity (same-role-across-contracts): 0.080 → 0.000 (n=9)
→ MoE is more discriminating: zero worker overlap across
Milwaukee / Indianapolis / Chicago for shared role names.
The geo + cert + skill context fully separates worker pools.
Different-roles-same-contract: 0.013 → 0.036 (still ~96% diff)
Determinism: 1.000 (unchanged)
Verbatim handover: 4/4 (100%)
Paraphrase handover: 4/4 (100%)
200-worker swap: Jaccard 0.000 (unchanged — still perfect)
Fresh-resume verify: STILL doesn't surface fresh workers in top-8.
With v2-moe, distances increased (top-1 = 0.43–0.65 vs v1's 0.25–0.39)
— the embedder is MORE discriminating, but the fresh worker's
vector still doesn't outrank the 8th-best existing worker. Now
suspect of being an HNSW post-build add issue (coder/hnsw
incremental adds can land in hard-to-reach graph regions, not an
embedder problem). Better embedder didn't fix it; needs a
different strategy: full index rebuild after fresh adds, or
explicit playbook-layer score boost for fresh workers, or
hybrid (keyword + semantic) retrieval. Phase 3 investigation.
Cost: ingest is ~5× slower (workers 20s→100s; ethereal 35s→112s).
Acceptable for the quality jump on diversity. Real production with
incremental ingest won't pay this once-per-deploy.
