STATE OF PLAY — Lakehouse-Go

Last verified: 2026-04-30 ~01:00 CDT Verified by: live probes + just verify PASS, not memory.

Read this FIRST. When the user says "we're working on lakehouse," default to the Go rewrite (this repo); the Rust legacy at /home/profit/lakehouse/ is maintenance-only. If memory contradicts this file, this file wins. Update it when something is verified working — not when a phase finishes.

VERIFIED WORKING RIGHT NOW

Substrate (G0 + G1 family)

13 service binaries under cmd/ plus 2 driver scripts under scripts/staffing_* build into bin/. 18 smoke scripts all PASS. just verify (vet + 30 packages × short tests + 9 core smokes) green in ~31s wall.

Binary	Port	What
gateway	3110	reverse proxy, single OpenAI-compat-style edge
storaged	3211	S3 GET/PUT/LIST/DELETE w/ per-prefix PUT cap (ADR-002)
catalogd	3212	Parquet manifests, ADR-020 idempotent register
ingestd	3213	CSV → Parquet → catalogd, content-addressed keys
queryd	3214	DuckDB SELECT over Parquet via httpfs
vectord	3215	HNSW indexes (coder/hnsw), persistence to storaged
embedd	3216	Ollama-backed embedder w/ LRU cache
pathwayd	3217	Mem0 ops (Add/Update/Revise/Retire/History/Search)
matrixd	3218	Multi-corpus retrieve+merge + relevance + downgrade + playbook
observerd	3219	Witness loop, workflow runner with DAG executor
chatd	3220	LLM dispatcher: ollama / ollama_cloud / openrouter / opencode / kimi
mcpd	—	MCP SDK port (Bun mcp-server replacement)
fake_ollama	—	Test fixture (used by g2_smoke_fixtures.sh)

Matrix indexer — all 5 SPEC §3.4 components shipped

1. Corpus builders (internal/corpusingest)
2. Multi-corpus retrieve+merge (matrixd /matrix/search)
3. Relevance filter (internal/matrix/relevance.go 376 LoC + 289 LoC test)
4. Strong-model downgrade gate (internal/matrix/downgrade.go, reads cfg.Models.WeakModels after Phase 2)
5. Playbook memory + boost (internal/matrix/playbook.go, learning loop)

Pathway memory (Mem0 substrate)

Full ADR-004 surface shipped. Cycle-detection + retired-trace exclusion proven by tests: TestHistory_CycleDetected, TestRetire_ExcludedFromSearch, TestRevise_ChainOfThree_BackwardWalk. JSONL append-only persistence with corruption tolerance.

Observer + workflow runner

• observerd ring buffer + JSONL persistence
• Workflow DAG executor (Archon-style) with 5 native modes wired: matrix.relevance, matrix.downgrade, matrix.search, distillation.score, drift.scorer. Plus fixture.echo / fixture.upper for runner mechanics smokes.

Distillation + drift

• E (partial) at 57d0df1 — scorer + contamination firewall ported from Rust v1.0.0 (logic only per ADR-001 §1.4; not bit-identical).
• F (first slice) at be65f85 — drift quantification, scorer drift first.

chatd — Phase 4 (shipped 2026-04-30, scrum-hardened same day)

Multi-provider LLM dispatcher routing /v1/chat by model-name prefix or :cloud suffix:

Prefix / suffix	Provider	Auth
ollama/<m> or bare	ollama (local)	none
ollama_cloud/<m> or <m>:cloud	ollama_cloud	Bearer (OLLAMA_CLOUD_KEY)
openrouter/<v>/<m>	openrouter	Bearer (OPENROUTER_API_KEY)
opencode/<m>	opencode	Bearer (OPENCODE_API_KEY)
kimi/<m>	kimi	Bearer (KIMI_API_KEY)

All 5 keys live in /etc/lakehouse/{ollama_cloud,openrouter,opencode,kimi}.env files (mode 0600). Empty/missing files leave that provider unregistered (404 at first call instead of 503). Test request: POST /v1/chat {"model":"opencode/claude-opus-4-7","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"hi"}],"max_tokens":8}.

Request.Temperature is *float64 (pointer) — Anthropic 4.7 deprecates temperature entirely, so we omit the field when caller doesn't set it.

Model tier registry

lakehouse.toml [models] names model IDs by tier so swaps are 1-line:

local_fast       = "qwen3.5:latest"
local_judge      = "qwen3.5:latest"
cloud_judge      = "kimi-k2.6:cloud"
cloud_review     = "qwen3-coder:480b"
frontier_review  = "openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4-7"
frontier_arch    = "openrouter/moonshotai/kimi-k2-0905"
frontier_free    = "opencode/claude-opus-4-7"
weak_models      = ["qwen3.5:latest", "qwen3:latest"]   # matrix.downgrade bypass

Callers read cfg.Models.LocalJudge etc. instead of literal strings. playbook_lift harness, matrix.downgrade, and observerd's MatrixDowngradeWithWeakList factory all migrated.

Code health

• go vet ./... → 0 warnings, 0 errors
• go test -short ./... → all green, 349 test functions
• just verify → PASS (vet + tests + 9 smokes) in ~31s
• 18 smoke scripts (9 core gating verify + 9 domain smokes for new daemons)

Latest scrum: 2026-04-30 cross-lineage wave

Composite 50/60 at scrum2 head c7e3124 (was 35 baseline → 43 R1 → 50 R2). Today's chatd wave reviewed by Opus + Kimi + Qwen3-coder via the chatd's own /v1/chat; 2 BLOCKs + 2 WARNs landed as fixes (0efc736); reusable driver at scripts/scrum_review.sh.

DO NOT RELITIGATE

Ratified ADRs (docs/DECISIONS.md)

• ADR-001: DuckDB via cgo, HTMX UI, Gitea hosting, distillation rebuilt-not-ported, pathway memory clean start, auditor longitudinal signal restarts. 6 sub-decisions, all final.
• ADR-002: storaged per-prefix PUT cap (4 GiB for _vectors/, 256 MiB elsewhere) — implemented at 423a381. Operator-config bump rather than constant change is the documented path if 4 GiB ever insufficient.
• ADR-003: Inter-service auth = Bearer + IP allowlist, opt-in via cfg.Auth.Token. Wiring deferred to Sprint 1 but the design is locked — alternatives (mTLS, JWT, OAuth2, IP-only) all considered + rejected.
• ADR-004: Pathway memory = Mem0 versioned traces, JSONL append-only persistence, opaque json.RawMessage content. Implemented in internal/pathway/.

Today's scrum dispositions (2026-04-30)

Verbatim verdicts at reports/scrum/_evidence/2026-04-30/verdicts/. Disposition table: reports/scrum/_evidence/2026-04-30/disposition.md.

Real findings, all fixed in 0efc736:

• B-1 (Opus+Kimi convergent): ResolveKey 3-arg API → 2-arg
• B-2 (Opus+Kimi convergent): handleProviders direct map lookup, drop synthesis-via-Resolve
• B-3 (Opus single, trace-verified): OllamaCloud.Chat strips ollama_cloud/ prefix correctly
• B-4 (Opus single): Ollama done_reason surfaced to FinishReason

False positives dismissed (3, documented):

• FP-A1: Kimi misread TestMaybeDowngrade_WithConfigList assertion
• FP-A2: Qwen claimed nil-deref in MaybeDowngrade that doesn't exist
• FP-C1: Opus claimed qwen3.5:latest doesn't exist on Ollama hub (it does on this box's local install)

Session frame (don't redo)

• The Rust legacy is maintenance-only until Go reaches feature parity. Don't propose ports of components already shipped here.
• The matrix indexer 5/5 components are shipped. Don't propose to "build the matrix indexer" — it's done.
• qwen3.5:latest IS available locally on this box. Opus's hub-only knowledge is a known-stale signal; the chatd_smoke uses it daily.
• temperature is omitted for Anthropic 4.7 (handled by Request.Temperature *float64); don't re-add it.
• chatd-smoke runs with all cloud providers disabled intentionally so the suite doesn't depend on API keys; that's why it can't catch B-3-class bugs (those need a fake-server fixture, see Sprint 0 follow-up).

OPEN — what's not done yet

Item	What	When to act
Reality test for the 5-loop substrate	playbook_lift_001.json exists at reports/reality-tests/ but the harness hasn't been run against real queries yet (J held it). Driver: scripts/playbook_lift.sh. Needs J's 20+ staffing queries in tests/reality/playbook_lift_queries.txt first (5 placeholders shipped).	When J supplies queries OR explicitly green-lights running with placeholders.
cmd/{matrixd,observerd,pathwayd}/main_test.go absent	3 new daemons each mount ≥4 routes with no wiring test. Original 6 binaries all closed via 0f79bce. New gap reopens R-005.	~1 hr pattern-match against cmd/storaged/main_test.go. Cheap.
Sprint 4 — deployment	No REPLICATION.md, secrets-go.toml.example, deploy/systemd/<bin>.service, Dockerfile. Largest open Sprint. Required input for any G5 cutover plan.	When G5 cutover is on the table.
ADR-005 — observer fail-safe semantics	Observer ported but the upstream "verdict:accept on crash" anti-pattern still has no Go-side decision locked. Doc-only, ~30 min.	Before observer is wired into production paths.
ADR-006 — auth posture for non-loopback deploy	Locks R-001 + R-007 from "opt-in middleware exists" to "wired-by-default for X, opt-in for Y." Doc-only, ~1 hr.	Required before any Go binary binds non-loopback in prod.
chatd fixture-mode storage half	g2_smoke_fixtures.sh closed embed half via fake_ollama; storage half (mock S3) still deferred. Closes R-006 fully.	When CI box without MinIO is needed.
Distillation full port	57d0df1 shipped scorer + contamination firewall (E partial); SFT export pipeline + audit_baselines lineage not yet ported.	When distillation is needed for production.
Drift full quantification	be65f85 is "scorer drift first." Full distribution-drift signal underspecified everywhere — research gap, not a port.	Open research item.

RECENT VERIFIED WAVE (2026-04-30)

05273ac..e4ee002 — 4 phases + scrum + tooling, all gate-tested.

SHA	What
ec1d031	Phase 1: [models] tier config (additive, no callers migrate)
622e124	Phase 2: matrix.downgrade reads cfg.Models.WeakModels
848cbf5	Phase 3: playbook_lift harness defaults from config
05273ac	Phase 4: chatd + 5 providers (1,624 LoC)
0efc736	Scrum: 4 fixes (B-1..B-4) + 2 INFOs from cross-lineage review
e4ee002	scripts/scrum_review.sh — reusable 3-lineage driver

Plus on Rust side (8de94eb, 3d06868): qwen2.5 → qwen3.5:latest backport in active defaults; distillation acceptance reports regenerated (run_hash refresh, reproducibility property still holds).

VISION — what we're actually building

J's framing (canonical at /root/.claude/projects/-home-profit/memory/project_small_model_pipeline_vision.md): a small-model-driven autonomous pipeline that gets better with each run. Frontier APIs (Opus, Kimi, GPT-5) are too expensive + rate-limited for the inner loop — they live in audit/oversight via frontier_* tier. The hot path runs on local qwen3.5:latest given:

1. Pathway memory — what we tried before, how it went (Mem0 substrate ✓)
2. Matrix indexer — multi-corpus retrieve+merge giving the small model the right slice for this task (5/5 components ✓)
3. Observer — watches each run, refines configs (not prompts) toward good pathways

Successful runs get rated and distilled back into the playbook. Each iteration the playbook gets denser, runs get cheaper, results get better. Drift in the distilled playbook is a measured signal, not vibes.

The single load-bearing gate: "the playbook + matrix indexer must give the results we're looking for." Throughput, scaling, code elegance are all secondary. The playbook_lift reality test is the regression gate before Enterprise cutover (where real contracts + live profile updates land).

When evaluating any Go workstream, ask: which of the 5 loops does this advance? Strong workstreams advance ≥1; weak workstreams sit in infra-for-its-own-sake.

SIBLING TOOLS (separate repos, intentional integration target later)

local-review-harness at git.agentview.dev/profit/local-review-harness (also SMB-mounted at /home/profit/share/local-review-harness-full-md/). Local-first code review harness — 12 evidence-bearing static analyzers, Scrum-style reports, no cloud deps. Phase A + B (MVP) shipped 2026-04-30. Phases C–E (Ollama LLM review, validation, memory) pending.

Cross-pollination plan when both stabilize:

• Replace harness's internal/llm/ollama.go with a chatd /v1/chat client → frontier judges via config toggle
• Feed harness findings into Lakehouse pathway memory as a drift signal
• Treat harness's .memory/known-risks.json as a matrix-indexer corpus

Detail at docs/SPEC.md §3.10. Don't re-port harness functionality into Lakehouse-Go — the standalone tool is the design.
