Two coupled changes from the 2026 agent-memory research + tool
asymmetry findings.
SCENARIO (weak-tier cloud substitute):
qwen2.5 collapsed to 0/14 across the basic/minimal tool_levels.
Replace with cloud kimi-k2.5 on Ollama Cloud — same family as k2.6
(pro-tier locked today, on J's upgrade path). Plumb cloud flag
through ACTIVE_EXECUTOR_CLOUD / ACTIVE_REVIEWER_CLOUD into
generateContinuable so executor/reviewer can route to cloud when
tool_level requires. think:false supported by Kimi family.
Tool level mapping (revised):
full — qwen3.5 local + qwen3 local + cloud gpt-oss:120b T3 + rescue
local — qwen3.5 local + qwen3 local + local gpt-oss:20b T3 + rescue
basic — kimi-k2.5 cloud + qwen3 local + local T3, no rescue
minimal — kimi-k2.5 cloud + qwen3 local, no T3, no rescue.
Playbook inheritance alone on the decision path.
This is the honest version of J's "minimal tools still works via
inheritance" hypothesis — with the executor no longer broken at the
tokenizer level, we can actually measure whether playbook retrieval
substitutes for missing overseers.
PLAYBOOK_MEMORY (multi-strategy retrieval):
Zep / Mem0 research shows multi-strategy rerank (semantic + keyword +
graph + temporal) outperforms single-strategy cosine. Lakehouse now
has a two-tier:
1. Exact (role, city, state) match: skip cosine, assign similarity=1.0,
take up to top_k/2+1 slots. These are identity-class neighbors —
the strongest possible signal.
2. Cosine fallback within the same (city, state) but different role:
fills remaining slots.
Exposed as compute_boost_for_filtered_with_role(target_geo, target_role).
Backwards-compatible: compute_boost_for_filtered forwards with role=None
so existing callers keep their current behavior.
Service.rs wires both: extract_target_geo and extract_target_role pull
from the executor's SQL filter. grab_eq_value is factored out of
extract_target_geo so both lookups share one parser. Diagnostic log
now prints target_role alongside target_geo for every hybrid_search:
playbook_boost: boosts=88 sources=39 parsed=39 matched=5
target_geo=Some(("Nashville", "TN")) target_role=Some("Welder")
Verified: Nashville Welder query returns 5/10 boosted workers in
top_k with clean role+geo provenance.

kimi-k2.6 on current key returns 403 — pro-tier upgrade required.
kimi-k2.5 is the substitute today; swap to k2.6 by renaming one line
in applyToolLevel once the subscription lands.
