Search results no longer pop in as a single block. New behavior:
- Skeleton list pre-claims the vertical space results will occupy
with shimmering placeholder cards, so arriving results fade in
over the skeleton instead of pushing layout. Sweep is staggered
per row for a "rolling wave" not "everything blinking together".
- Domain-language stage caption ("matching against permits",
"ranking by reliability") rotates on a fixed schedule so users
read progress, not a stuck spinner.
- @keyframes card-in: real worker cards rise 4px and fade in over
350ms with nth-child stagger across the first ~12 rows. Honors
prefers-reduced-motion.
- Avatar imgs filter through grayscale + slight contrast/blur to
pull the SDXL Turbo color cast (which screams "AI generated" at
small sizes). Cert icons get the same treatment.
- Once-per-session hero takeover compresses the Section ⓪ strip
("Not a CRM — an index that learns from you") into a centered
hero on first paint, dismissed by clicking anywhere. Stats
hydrate from live endpoints.
console.html: mirrors the avatar B&W filter for visual consistency,
and removes the headshot insertion entirely — back to monogram
initials. The console (internal staffer view) doesn't need synthetic
faces; the public demo at /lakehouse/ does.

Three problems J flagged ("not matching properly", "same faces", "still
showing old icons") had three different roots:
1. MISMATCH: front-end was first-name only, so "Anna Cruz" / "Patricia
Garcia" / "John Jimenez" all defaulted to caucasian. Added
SURNAMES_HISPANIC / _SOUTH_ASIAN / _EAST_ASIAN / _MIDDLE_EASTERN
dicts to both search.html and console.html. Surname is checked
FIRST (stronger signal for hispanic + asian than first names),
then first-name fallback. Cruz → hispanic, Patel → south_asian,
Nguyen → east_asian, regardless of first name.
2. SAME FACES: pool buckets are uneven — woman/south_asian=3,
man/black=4, woman/middle_eastern=2 — so any worker in those
buckets collapses to 2-4 photos no matter how good the hash is.
/headshots/:key now 302-redirects to /headshots/generate/:key
when the gender × race intersection is below 30 faces. ComfyUI
on-demand gives infinite uniqueness for the sparse buckets
(deterministic-per-worker via djb2 seed). Dense buckets still
serve from the pool — no GPU cost there.
3. STALE CACHE: Cache-Control was max-age=86400, immutable — pinned
old photos in browsers for 24h after any server-side update.
Dropped to max-age=3600, must-revalidate, and added a v=2
cache-buster query param to all front-end /headshots/ URLs so
existing cached entries are bypassed on next page load.
Also surfacing X-Face-Pool-Bucket / Bucket-Size headers for diagnosis.
Verified: playwright run shows surname routing correct (Torres,
Rivera, Alvarez, Gutierrez, Patel, Nguyen, Omar all bucketed
correctly), sparse buckets 302 to ComfyUI, dense buckets stay on
the thumb pool.

Worker cards now ship a real photo per person instead of monogram tiles:
- fetch_face_pool.py pulls 1000 faces from thispersondoesnotexist.com
- tag_face_pool.py runs deepface for gender/race/age, excludes <22yo
- manifest.jsonl: 952 servable, gender/race buckets populated
- /headshots/_thumbs/ pre-resized to 384px webp (587KB -> 11KB,
60x smaller; without this Chrome's parallel-connection budget
drops ~75% of tiles in a 40-card grid)
- /headshots/:key gender x race x age intersection bucketing with
gender-only fallback when intersection is sparse
- /headshots/generate/:key ComfyUI on-demand for the contractor
profile spotlight (cold ~1.5s, cached ~1ms; worker-derived
djb2 seed makes faces deterministic-per-worker but unique
across workers sharing the same prompt)
- serve_imagegen.py _cache_key() now includes seed (was caching
by prompt only -> 3 different worker seeds collapsed to 1
cached image; verified fix produces 3 distinct md5s)
- confidence-default name resolution: Xavier->man+hispanic,
Aisha->woman+black, etc. Every worker resolves to a bucket.
End-to-end: playwright run on /?q=forklift+operators+IL -> 21/21
cards loaded, 0 broken, all 384px webp.
Cache + binary pool gitignored; manifest tracked.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Three layers shipped:
1. SCRIPT — scripts/staffing/fetch_face_pool.py
Pulls N synthetic StyleGAN faces from thispersondoesnotexist.com
into data/headshots/face_NNNN.jpg, writes manifest.jsonl. Idempotent:
re-running skips existing files. Optional gender tagging via deepface
(currently unavailable on this box; the script handles ImportError
gracefully and tags everything as untagged). Fetched 198 faces with
concurrency=3 in ~67s.
2. SERVER — /headshots/:key route in mcp-server/index.ts
Loads manifest at first hit, caches in globalThis._faces. Hashes the
key with djb2-style mixing → pool index → returns the JPG. Same
key always gets the same face (deterministic). Accepts
?g=man|woman&e=caucasian|black|hispanic|south_asian|east_asian|middle_eastern
to bias pool selection — the gender/ethnicity buckets fall back to
the full pool when no tagged matches exist. Cache-Control:
86400 immutable so faces ride the browser cache after first hit.
/headshots/__reload re-reads the manifest without restart.
3. UI — search.html + console.html worker cards
Re-added overlay <img> on top of the monogram .av circle. img.src
= /headshots/<encoded-key>?g=<hint>&e=<hint>. img.onerror removes
the failed image so the monogram stays visible if the face pool
isn't fetched / CDN is blocked. .av now has overflow:hidden +
position:relative to clip the img to a perfect circle.
Forced-confident name resolution (J: "we're CREATING the profile,
created as though you truly have the information Xavier is more
likely Hispanic and he's a male"):
genderFor(name) — looks up MALE_NAMES + FEMALE_NAMES,
falls back to a deterministic hash split
so unknown names spread ~50/50. Sets now
include cross-cultural names: Alejandro/
Andres/Mateo/Santiago/Joaquin/Cesar/Hugo/
Felipe/Gerardo/Salvador/Ramon (Hispanic),
Raj/Anil/Vikram/Krishna/Pradeep (South
Asian), Wei/Yi/Hiroshi/Akira/Hyun (East
Asian), Demetrius/Kareem/DaQuan/Khalil
(Black), Omar/Khalid/Hassan/Ahmed/Bilal
(Middle Eastern). FEMALE_NAMES extended
in parallel.
guessEthnicityFromFirstName(name)
— confident default of 'caucasian' for any
name not in the cultural buckets so every
worker resolves to a category the face
pool can be biased toward. Order: ME → Black
→ Hispanic → South Asian → East Asian →
Caucasian (matters where names overlap,
e.g. Aisha appears in ME + Black, biases
toward ME for visual fit).
Both helpers also ported into console.html so the triage backfills
and try-it-yourself rendering get the same hint stack.
Privacy note in the script + route comments: the synthetic data uses
the worker's name as the seed; production should hash worker_id (not
name) to avoid leaking PII to a third-party CDN. The fetch URL itself
is referenced once per pool build, not per-worker.
.gitignore — added data/headshots/face_*.jpg (~100MB for 198 faces;
the manifest + script are tracked). Re-running the script on a fresh
checkout rebuilds the pool from scratch.
Verified end-to-end via playwright on devop.live/lakehouse:
forklift query → 10 worker cards
10/10 with face images (real synthetic headshots, not monograms)
0/10 broken
Alejandro G. Nelson → ?g=man&e=hispanic
Patricia K. Garcia → ?g=woman&e=caucasian
Each name → unique face, deterministic across loads.
Console triage backfills get the same treatment.
J: "can you update Staffer's Console too the same look." Console
rendered worker rows in three places (Chapter 4 permit-contract
candidates, Chapter 8 triage backfills, Chapter 9 try-it-yourself
results) with the original 28px square avatar + flat backgrounds —
inconsistent with the new dashboard design.
Three changes:
1. CSS — .worker now has a 3px left-edge border that color-codes the
role family, and .av is a 32px circle with a muted dark background
+ 1px ring + monogram initials. Five role-band colors mirror
search.html: warehouse blue / production amber / trades purple /
driver green / lead orange. Plus a .role-pill style matching the
dashboard's small uppercase chip.
2. Helpers — added ROLE_BANDS regex table + roleBand() classifier and
a new workerRow(name, role, detail, opts) builder. Same regex
patterns as search.html so a "Forklift Operator" classifies
identically on every page. opts.endorsed adds the green endorsed
chip; opts.score appends a rank badge.
3. Replaced the three inline avatar+row constructors with workerRow()
calls. Net: console.html lost ~20 lines of duplicated DOM building
while gaining role bands + pills.
Verified end-to-end via playwright on devop.live/lakehouse/console:
Chapter 8 triage scenario "Marcus running late site 4422":
5 backfill rows render with [warehouse] band + WAREHOUSE pill +
monogram avatars (SBC, ETW, SHC, WMG, MEB).
Same sober look as the dashboard worker cards. No emojis, no
cartoons, color-coded role family on the left edge.
J: "it's outdated." Console walkthrough was stuck on the original 6
chapters (legacy-bridge / permits / catalog / ranking demo / playbook
memory / try-it-yourself). Three weeks of new work weren't visible.
Three new chapters added between the existing playbook-memory chapter
and the input box; all pull live data from the running system:
Chapter 6 — Three coordinators, three views of the same corpus
Renders Maria/Devon/Aisha cards from /staffers with their
territories. Frames the per-staffer hot-swap as the relevance
gradient that compounds independently per coordinator. Same query
"forklift operators" returns 89 IN / 16 WI / 167 IL workers
depending on who's acting.
Chapter 7 — The hidden signal — public issuers in your contractor graph
Pulls /intelligence/profiler_index, builds the basket, shows
issuer count + attributed build value + contractor count as the
three top metrics. Lists top 8 issuers with attribution counts
and direct-link to the profiler. This is the BAI / Signal Engine
pitch in walkthrough form: every contractor name is also a forward
indicator on a public equity. Cross-metro replication explicit
in the closing paragraph.
Chapter 8 — When something breaks — triage in one shot
Live triage demo against /intelligence/chat with body
{message:"Marcus running late site 4422"}. Renders the worker
card + draft SMS + 5 backfills + duration_ms. The 250ms-vs-20min
moment, made concrete with real Quincy IL workers.
Chapter 9 (was 6) — Try it yourself
Updated input examples to demonstrate each new route:
"8 production workers near 60607" → headcount + zip parser
"Marcus running late site 4422" → triage handler
"Marcus" → bare-name lookup
"what came in last night" → temporal route
"reliable forklift operators with OSHA certs" → hybrid SQL+vector
Each is a click-to-run link beneath the input.
Two new accent classes: .accent-g (green for issuer-count) and
.accent-r (red for triage event).
Verified end-to-end on devop.live/lakehouse/console: 9 chapters
render, ch6 shows 3 staffer personas, ch7 shows 11 issuers / $347M /
200 contractors, ch8 shows Marcus V. Campbell + draft SMS + 5
backfills.
J asked for "a profiler index that shows a history of everyone." This
is a /profiler directory page (also reachable via /contractors) that
ranks every contractor who's filed a Chicago permit, by total permit
value. Rows are clickable into the full /contractor profile.
Defaults: since 2025-06-01, min permit cost $250K, top 200 contractors
by total_cost. Server pulls two Socrata GROUP BY queries (one keyed on
contact_1_name, one on contact_2_name), merges them so contractors
listed in either applicant or contractor slot appear once with combined
counts/cost. ~300ms cold.
UI: live search box, since-date selector, min-cost selector, sortable
columns (name / permits / total_cost / last_filed). Live numbers as of
this write: 200 contractors, 1,702 permits, $14.22B aggregate. Filter
"Target" returns TARGET CORPORATION + CORPORATION TARGET (name variants
from Socrata).
Also fixes J's other complaint — "no new contracts, Target is gone":
/intelligence/permit_contracts was hard-capped at $limit=6 + only
the most recent 6 over $250K, so any day with 6 fresh permits would
push older contractors (Target) off the panel entirely. Now defaults
to 24 (caller can pass body.limit up to 100), so 2-3 days of permits
stay on the panel. Added body.contractor — passes a name into the
WHERE so the staffer can pin a specific contractor to the panel
("Target Corporation" → 3 of their permits over $250K).
Server-side:
- new POST /intelligence/profiler_index — paginated contractor index
(since, min_cost, search, limit) with merged contact_1+contact_2
aggregations
- /intelligence/permit_contracts — body.limit + body.contractor
- /profiler and /contractors routes serve profiler.html
Front-end:
- new mcp-server/profiler.html — sortable table, live filter, deep
links to /contractor?name=... (prefix-aware via P, so /lakehouse
works on devop.live)
- search.html + console.html nav: added "Profiler" link
Verified end-to-end via playwright on the public URL.
J reported https://devop.live/contractor?name=3115%20W%20POLK%20ST.%20LLC
returned 404. Cause: the anchor href was a bare /contractor, which on
devop.live routes to the LLM Team UI (port 5000) at the main site root,
not the lakehouse mcp-server (which lives under /lakehouse/*).
Every page that renders a contractor link now uses the same prefix
detector the dashboard already had:
var P = location.pathname.indexOf('/lakehouse') >= 0 ? '/lakehouse' : '';
Files updated:
- search.html: entity-brief anchor + preview anchor → P+/contractor
- console.html: permit-card contractor list → P+/contractor
- contractor.html: history.replaceState + back-link + the
/intelligence/contractor_profile fetch all use P prefix. The page
is reachable at /lakehouse/contractor on the public URL and bare
/contractor on localhost; both work without further config.
Verified:
https://devop.live/lakehouse/contractor?name=3115%20W%20POLK%20ST.%20LLC
→ 200, 29.9 KB, full profile renders. Contractor has 1 permit on
file (a small LLC), 1 geocoded so the heat map plots one marker.
The contractor.html click-target J asked for: a separate page (not a
modal, not a fall-through search) showing every angle on a contractor.
Reachable from the Co-Pilot dashboard, the staffers console, and the
search box — all anchor-wrap contractor names to /contractor?name=...
What's new on the page:
1. PROJECT INDEX — build-signal score
Single 0-100 number with the drivers laid out beneath. Driver list
is staffer-readable: "59 Chicago permits in 180d (+30) · OSHA 20
inspections (-25) · federal contractor (+15)". Score weights are
placeholders to be replaced by an ML model once the 12 awaiting
sources ship — the current 6 wired signals would not give a real
model enough features.
2. HEAT MAP — every Chicago permit they've been contact_1 or contact_2
on, last 24 months, plotted on a leaflet dark map. Color by cost
(green <$100K, amber $100K-$1M, red ≥$1M), radius proportional to
cost so the staffer sees where money + activity concentrates. Click
a marker for permit detail (cost, date, work type, address, permit
ID). All 50 of Turner Construction's geocoded recent permits in
Chicago plot end-to-end.
3. ACTIVITY TIMELINE — monthly permit count, bar chart, with the
first/last month labels so the staffer sees momentum. Tooltip on
each bar gives the count and total cost for that month.
4. 12 AWAITING SOURCES — placeholder cards for the public datasets
that would 3× the build-signal feature count. Each card has:
- source name (real, e.g. DOL Wage & Hour, EPA ECHO, MSHA, BBB)
- one-liner in coordinator language ("Has this contractor stiffed
workers? Will they pay our staffing invoices?")
- "Would show:" sample shape so the engineering scope is concrete
Order is staffing-decision relevance:
1. DOL Wage & Hour (WHD violations)
2. State Licensure Boards (active license + expiry)
3. Surety Bond Capacity (bonding ceiling)
4. EPA ECHO Compliance (env violations at sites)
5. DOT/FMCSA Carrier Safety (crash + OOS rates)
6. BBB Complaints + Rating
7. PACER Civil Suits (FLSA / Title VII / ADA)
8. UCC Lien Filings (cash flow distress)
9. D&B / Credit Bureau (PAYDEX, payment behavior)
10. State UI Employer Claims (workforce stability)
11. MSHA Mine Safety (excavation / aggregate / heavy)
12. Registered Apprenticeships (DOL RAPIDS pipeline)
Server-side: entity.ts fetchContractorHistory now pulls the 50 most
recent permits with id + lat/lng + work_description, so the heat map
and timeline have what they need without a second SQL hop. The
ContractorHistory.recent_permits type gained the optional fields.
Front-end: contractor.html got 4 new render sections, leaflet wiring
(stylesheet + script in head), placeholder grid CSS, and a PLACEHOLDERS
const at the bottom with the 12 sources. All popup HTML is built via
DOM construction (textContent + appendChild) — no innerHTML, no XSS.
console.html: contractor names from /intelligence/permit_contracts now
anchor-wrapped to /contractor?name=... so the click-through J described
works from the staffers console too. Click stops propagation so the
permit details element doesn't toggle on the same click.
Verified end-to-end via playwright — Turner Construction profile shows:
PIX score "Mixed signals — review drivers below"
Heat map: "50 permits plotted · green/amber/red"
4 section labels in order
12 placeholder cards in the documented order
Phase 8.5 was fully built on the Rust side (WorkspaceManager with
create/handoff/search/shortlist/activity/get/list, persisted to
object storage, zero-copy handoff between agents). Nothing surfaced
it in the recruiter UI. This page closes that gap.
/workspaces — split-pane UI:
Left: scrollable list of all workspaces, sorted by updated_at.
Each card shows name, tier pill (daily/weekly/monthly/pinned),
current owner, count of shortlisted candidates + activity events.
Right: selected workspace detail with five sections:
1. Header — name, tier, owner, created/updated dates, description,
previous-owners audit trail (each handoff is preserved)
2. Actions row — Hand off, Shortlist candidate, Save search, Log activity
3. Shortlist — candidates flagged with dataset + record_id + notes
4. Saved searches — named SQL queries the staffer wants to rerun
5. Activity — chronological (newest first) log of what happened
Four modals for the add/edit actions (create, handoff, shortlist,
save-search, log-activity). All forms POST through the existing
/api/* passthrough to the gateway's /workspaces/* routes.
End-to-end verified live:
1. Sarah creates 'Demo: Toledo Week 17' workspace
2. Shortlists Helen Sanchez (W500K-4661) with notes about prior endorsements
3. Logs activity: 'called — Helen confirmed Tuesday 7am shift'
4. Hands off to Kim with reason 'end of shift'
5. Kim opens the workspace: owner=kim, previous_owners=[{sarah→kim}],
sees all 3 prior events + the shortlisted Helen
— no data copy, pointer swap only (Phase 8.5 design)
Security: all dynamic content built via el(tag,cls,text) DOM helper.
Zero innerHTML on API-derived strings. Modal close-on-backdrop-click
is guarded to the backdrop element.
Nav updated across all 7 pages. Workspaces is the 7th tab.

Converts the app from 'dashboard you visit' to 'system that finds you.'
Critical for the phone-first staffing shop that won't open a URL —
the system reaches out when something matters.
Daemon:
- Starts once per Bun process (guarded via globalThis sentinel)
- Default interval 15 min (configurable, min 1, max 1440)
- On each cycle, buildDigest() compares current state against prior
snapshot persisted in mcp-server/data/notification_state.json
- Events detected:
- risk_escalation: role moved to tight or critical (was ok/watch)
- deadline_approaching: staffing window falls within warn window
(default 7 days) AND deadline date differs from prior
- memory_growth: playbook_memory entries grew by >= 5 since last run
Channels (all opt-out individually via config):
- console: always on, logged to journalctl -u lakehouse-agent
- file: always on, appends JSONL to mcp-server/data/notifications.jsonl
- webhook: optional, POSTs {text, digest} to configured URL
(Slack incoming-webhook / Discord webhook / any custom endpoint)
Digest format (human-readable, fits in a Slack message):
LAKEHOUSE DIGEST — 2026-04-20 23:24
3 staffing deadlines within window:
• Production Worker — 2d to 2026-04-23 · demand 724
• Maintenance Tech — 4d to 2026-04-25 · demand 32
• Electrician — 5d to 2026-04-26 · demand 34
+779 new playbooks (total 779, 2204 endorsed names)
snapshot: 0 critical · 0 tight · $275,599,326 pipeline
/alerts page:
- Current status table (daemon state, interval, webhook, last run)
- Config form: enable toggle, interval, deadline warn window, webhook
URL + label (saved to data/notification_config.json)
- 'Fire a test digest now' button — force a cycle without waiting
- Recent digests panel shows the last 10 dispatches with full text
End-to-end verified live:
- Daemon armed successfully on startup
- First-run digest dispatched to console + file in <1s
- Events detected correctly: 3 deadlines within 7 days from real
Chicago permit data; 779 playbook entries surfaced as memory growth
- Digest text format is Slack-pastable
- Dispatch records appear in /alerts recent list
TDZ caveat: startAlertsDaemon() invocation moved to end of module so
all const/let in the alerts block evaluate before daemon reads them.
Previously failed with 'Cannot access X before initialization' when
the call lived near the top of the file. Nav added to all 6 pages:
Dashboard · Walkthrough · Architecture · Spec · Onboard · Alerts.
New /onboard page. Client-facing wizard for getting real data into
the system without engineering help.
Flow:
1. Drop a CSV (or click 'Use the sample as my data' — ships a 25-row
realistic staffing roster under /samples/staffing_roster_sample.csv)
2. Browser parses client-side. Columns auto-typed (text/int/decimal/
date). PII flagged by name hint AND content regex (emails, phones).
First rows previewed. Read-only — nothing written yet.
3. Name the dataset (lowercase+underscores). Commit.
4. Post-commit: dataset is live. Shows 4 next steps the operator can
take (SQL query, vector index, dashboard search, playbook training).
Backend:
- /onboard serves onboard.html
- /samples/*.csv serves CSV files from mcp-server/samples/ with
filename validation (only [a-zA-Z0-9_-.]+.csv, prevents path traversal)
- /onboard/ingest forwards multipart/form-data to gateway /ingest/file
preserving the boundary. The generic /api/* passthrough breaks
multipart because it reads as text and forwards as JSON; this route
uses arrayBuffer + original Content-Type.
Verified end-to-end: upload sample roster (25 rows, 12 columns) →
parse in browser → show columns + PII flags + preview → commit →
gateway writes Parquet, registers in catalog → immediately queryable:
SELECT * FROM onboard_demo2 LIMIT 3
→ Sarah Johnson, Forklift Operator, Chicago, IL, 0.92
Round-trip <1 second.
Nav updated on all pages to link Onboard. Shipped with a sample CSV
so the full flow is demonstrable without real client data.
When a real client shows up, same path — they upload their CSV.
No engineering ticket, no code change, no schema pre-definition.
Security: sample filename regex prevents path traversal. CSV parse
is client-side pure JS (no DOM injection). Commit uses existing
/ingest/file validation (schema fingerprint, PII server-side,
content-hash dedup).
J's ask: explain the full architecture so someone reading a README
can dispute it or recreate it. The repo isn't public yet; this page
IS the spec until it is.
Ch1 Repository layout — 13 crates + tests/multi-agent + docs + data,
with owned responsibility and file path per crate.
Ch2 Data ingest pipeline (8 steps) — sources (file/inbox/DB/cron),
parse+normalize with ADR-010 conservative typing, PII auto-tag,
dedup, Parquet write, catalog register with fingerprint gate,
mark embeddings stale, queryable immediately.
Ch3 Measurement & indexing — row count / fingerprint / owner /
sensitivity / freshness / lineage per dataset. HNSW vs Lance
tradeoff table with measured numbers (ADR-019). Autotune loop.
Per-profile scoping (Phase 17).
Ch4 Contract inference from external signal — Chicago permit feed
→ role mapping → worker count heuristic → timeline → hybrid
search with boost → pattern discovery → rendered card. All
pre-computed before staffer opens UI.
Ch5 What a CRM can't do — 11-row comparison table of capabilities.
Ch6 How it gets better over time — three paths:
- Phase 19 playbook boost (full math)
- Pattern discovery meta-index
- Autotune agent
Ch7 Scale story: 20 staffers, 300 contracts, midday +20/+1M surge
- Async gateway + per-staffer profile isolation + client blacklists
- 7-step surge handling flow (ingest, stale-mark, incremental refresh,
degradation, hot-swap, autotune re-enter)
- Known pain points: Ollama inference serial, RAM ceiling ~5M on
HNSW (mitigated by Lance), VRAM 1-2 models sequential,
playbook_memory unbounded.
Ch8 Error surfaces & recovery — 10-row table covering ingest schema
conflicts, bucket failures, ghost names, dual-agent drift,
empty searches, Ollama down, gateway restart, schema fingerprint
divergence. Every failure has a named surface and recovery path.
Ch9 Per-staffer context — active profile, workspace, client blacklist,
audit trail, daily summary. How 20 staffers don't see the same UI.
Ch10 Day in the life — 07:00 housekeeping → 07:30 refresh → 08:00
staffer opens → 08:15 drill down → 08:30 Call click → 09:00
second staffer shares memory → 12:30 surge → 14:00 no-show →
15:00 new embeddings live → 17:00 retrospective → 22:00
overnight trials.
Ch11 Known limits & non-goals — deferred (rate/margin, push, confidence
calibration, neural re-ranker, pm compaction, call_log cross-ref)
and explicitly out-of-scope (cloud, ACID, streaming, CRM replace,
proprietary formats, hard multi-tenant).
Also: nav updated on /dashboard, /console, /proof to link /spec.
Every architectural claim in the spec cites either a code path, an
ADR number, or a phase reference so someone skeptical can target
the specific artifact.
Old console was a chat playground. New console is a guided,
chapter-based explanation that a non-technical staffing staffer
can read top-down and finish convinced — without needing to
understand any of the underlying technology.
Six chapters, each loading live data:
1. Right now, this system is already thinking
Four stats cards pulled live: construction pipeline $, predicted
worker demand, rows under management, playbooks remembered. Then
a narrative that names the current alert posture (critical/tight/ok).
2. The demand signal is real, not made up
Expandable rows per Chicago permit work_type, with a direct link to
data.cityofchicago.org for verification. Pill labeled LIVE ·
DATA.CITYOFCHICAGO.ORG leaves no ambiguity.
3. Where your own data would live
Catalog enumerated with three pill classes:
- SWAP FOR YOUR DATA (purple) — the synthetic tables that would
be replaced by the client's ATS/CRM/call-log exports
- SYSTEM-GENERATED (blue) — playbook memory, threat_intel, kb_*
produced by the system itself
Row counts + columns visible. Names it honestly.
4. Watch the system rank candidates in real time
Takes the freshest Chicago permit, walks the staffer through all
three steps (derive need → narrow via SQL → rank + boost), shows
the top-5 workers with why, boost chip, memory chip, timeline,
and a plain-English narrative of the CRM gap.
5. Every action compounds
Playbook memory count + sample + narrative about what it means
when the staffer logs a fill.
6. Try it yourself
Free-text input hitting /intelligence/chat, renders response
with memory chip + boost chips + ranked workers.
Security: all API-derived strings go through textContent or
el(tag,cls,text) helper. Zero innerHTML usage on dynamic content.
Passes security reminder hook.
File size: 419 → ~500 lines. Visual style matches the dashboard
(same palette, typography, chip styles) so the two pages feel
like one app.
"find me a warehouse worker available today near Nashville" now:

New page at /lakehouse/console — a $200/hr consultant's intelligence product:
Morning Brief (auto-loads in ~120ms across 500K profiles):
- Workforce Pulse: total, reliable %, elite %, archetype breakdown
- Geographic Bench: state-by-state reliable % with weakest-state alert
- Comeback Watch: 15K improving workers who crossed 80% reliability
- Risk Watch: 5K erratic + 5K silent workers flagged automatically

Conversational Chat with 5 intelligent routes:
- "Find someone like [Name] but in OH" → vector similarity search
- "Who could handle industrial electrical work?" → semantic role discovery
(finds workers for roles that DON'T EXIST in the database)
- "What if we lose our top 5 forklift operators?" → scenario analysis
with risk rating, bench depth, state-by-state breakdown
- "Which workers should we stop placing?" → risk flagging
- Default: hybrid SQL+vector search with LLM summary
Every response shows: query steps, records scanned, response time.
Transparency kills the "AI is making it up" argument.
