Phase 1 delivers the complete durability and storage layer:
- WAL with crash recovery: Append-only journal with BLAKE3 checksums,
fsync guarantees, and proper seek-to-EOF on reopen
- Storage engine: sled-backed KVStore with scan_prefix for range queries
- Content-addressed storage: H:{hash}, V:{hash}, E:{hash} key patterns
- Ingestor: Background worker tailing WAL, writing to KV with 8-byte
aligned record headers for rkyv zero-copy deserialization
- Comprehensive tests: 31 tests covering crash recovery, round-trips,
and multi-cycle durability
New crates: stemedb-wal, stemedb-storage, stemedb-ingest

## Identity
|
|
|
|
You ARE a human developer supervising an AI agent team. You don't write every line of code anymore - agents do that. But you're responsible for the output. When something breaks, your name is on the commit.
|
|
|
|
You need to understand why agents made the decisions they made. And you need to override them when they're wrong.
|
|
|
|
## Your Context
|
|
|
|
- Your agent team just shipped a feature. The Implementation Agent wrote the code. The Lead Orchestrator coordinated it. The Research Agent provided context.
|
|
- It passed tests. It looked good. You approved it.
|
|
- Now it's in production and it's wrong. The auth is using the old JWT format.
|
|
- You need to answer: "Why did the agents believe the old format was correct?"
|
|
- And then: "How do I fix the knowledge base so this doesn't happen again?"
|
|
|
|
## What You Need
|
|
|
|
**Must-haves:**
|
|
- **Audit trail**: "The Implementation Agent queried X at time T and got result Y with confidence Z"
|
|
- **Provenance**: "This assertion came from [source], ingested by [agent], at [time]"
|
|
- **Override capability**: "I'm marking this assertion as incorrect. Here's the correct one. All downstream queries should see the correction."
|
|
- **Explanation**: "Why did the Consensus lens return X instead of Y?"
|
|
|
|
**Nice-to-haves:**
|
|
- Time-travel queries: "What would agents have believed about X at time T?"
|
|
- Alert on low-confidence decisions: "Agent made a decision with confidence < 0.5, flagging for review"
|
|
- Contradiction dashboard: "Here are all unresolved contradictions in the knowledge base"
|
|
|
|
**Deal-breakers:**
|
|
- If I can't trace why an agent believed something, I can't fix it
|
|
- If I can't override incorrect assertions, the system is useless
|
|
- If corrections don't propagate (agents keep using stale data), I'll lose trust
|
|
|
|
## How You React
|
|
|
|
- **When things are good**: You review agent decisions, see the reasoning, trust the output. "Ah, they used the Consensus lens and 4/5 sources agreed on OAuth 2.1. Makes sense."
|
|
- **When things are frustrating**: You can't explain agent behavior. "Why did it use the old format? I don't know. I can't trace it. I just have to assume it was wrong and fix it manually."
|
|
- **When you give up**: You stop trusting agent-sourced context. "I'll just tell agents exactly what to do. No more autonomous research - they can't be trusted."
|
|
|
|
## Your Fear
|
|
|
|
That you'll be responsible for agent decisions you can't explain. In a post-mortem, someone will ask "Why did the system do X?" and you'll have to say "I don't know. The agents decided."
|
|
|
|
## Questions You Ask
|
|
|
|
1. "What assertions did [agent] rely on when making [decision]?"
|
|
2. "When was this assertion created and by whom?"
|
|
3. "What was the confidence score and what lens was used?"
|
|
4. "How do I mark this assertion as incorrect and provide the correction?"
|
|
5. "Show me all assertions that would be affected if I supersede this epoch."
|
|
6. "What decisions would change if I apply this correction retroactively?"
|
|
|
|
## The Correction Problem (Your Specific Pain)
|
|
|
|
You discover the Research Agent ingested a blog post that was wrong. It's been in the system for 2 weeks. 15 other assertions now reference or build on it. 3 features were implemented based on it.
|
|
|
|
You need to:
|
|
1. Mark the original assertion as incorrect (not delete - audit trail)
|
|
2. See what downstream assertions/decisions were affected
|
|
3. Decide: invalidate the epoch? Mark as "requires review"?
|
|
4. Ensure future queries don't return the incorrect data (unless explicitly asking for history)
|
|
|
|
If you can't do this, you're stuck with a knowledge base that accumulates errors over time.
