merge: T118 phase 4.5 docs sweep — Phase 4.5 status + Phase 5 backlog

Phase 4.5 carry-over from Phase 3. Tests across test_turn_flow.py,
test_meanwhile_turn_flow.py, and the phase3/4 integration suites built
positional canned-response arrays for MockLLMClient — adding a new
classifier call to a code path required updating the array index in
many places.

This change ships tests/fixtures.py with a fluent CannedQueue builder
that lets tests declare classifier expectations by name and call order
instead of by index. Each method appends one item to an internal queue
and returns self for chaining; build() emits the flat list[str] queue
that MockLLMClient(canned=...) already consumes. The mock's contract
is unchanged.

Builder methods cover: parse_turn, detect_addressee, state_update
(with zero_state alias), detect_interjection,
detect_interjection_targeted, detect_scene_close,
detect_event_transitions, summarize_scene_pov, detect_threads,
meanwhile_digest, score_significance, and a narrative() helper for
streaming bot beats. raw() is a passthrough escape hatch.

Migration scope: ship the builder + 2 sanity tests + migrate 3
representative tests in test_turn_flow.py as proof of concept
(test_single_bot_turn_no_guest_regression,
test_turn_with_event_transition_appends_started_event,
test_turn_with_no_active_events_skips_classifier). The remaining
positional-array tests stay as-is; the builder docstring documents
the migration template for Phase 5 work.

 ### Phase 4.5 / 5 backlog
 
-New follow-ups discovered during Phase 4 reviews and execution. None are blocking; pick up at any time.

-#### From T88 review
+## Phase 4.5 status
 
-- **`embeddings` FK lacks `ON DELETE CASCADE`**: deindex events are the only deletion path; if memories ever get deleted directly (raw SQL), embedding rows orphan. Defensible since projector model uses explicit deindex events, but worth a comment or `ON DELETE CASCADE` addition.
+Phase 4.5 cleanup shipped 13 of 14 planned tasks (T103–T117 with T115 deferred; T118 is this docs sweep). Two CLAUDE.md backlogs (Phase 3.6/4, Phase 4.5/5) are now empty; deferred follow-ups discovered during execution are tracked in a new "Phase 5 backlog" section below. Schema baseline advanced from version 13 to **14** (migration 0014: `memories.event_id`). Test count grew from ~413 (Phase 4) to ~457 (+~44 new tests across the wave).
 
-#### From T89 review
+- **Wave 1 — trivial polish (parallel)**:
+  - **T103** branches polish — global-branch (`chat_id IS NULL`) leak documented in `list_branches`; branch-switch to nonexistent name now logs a warning.
+  - **T104** `memory.py` DRY — `MAX(id)` helper extracted; `fts_rank=None` contract documented for vector-only rows.
+  - **T105** `snapshots.py` polish — `datetime`/`timezone` imports hoisted to module level; strict `kind` validation in restore/preview (rejects missing); `created_at` from file mtime documented.
+  - **T106** `search.py` polish — `k=50` extracted to module constant; N+1 `get_bot`/`get_chat`/`get_scene` lookups batched.
+  - **T107** `embeddings.py` — `timeout_s` fallback-path warning when non-default model misconfigured.
+- **Wave 2 — scene-close-on-cancel (single)**:
+  - **T108** strengthened the T74.3 regression test + documented rationale in `turns.py`. **Surfaced a deferred bug**: existing pin only passes because `asyncio` isn't imported in the test module (NameError caught instead of CancelledError). When CancelledError fires for real, `post_turn`'s end-of-function re-raise causes `open_db`'s dependency teardown to skip `conn.commit()`, rolling back ALL post-cancel writes. Documented and deferred to Phase 5 triage.
+- **Wave 3 — schema 0014 (single)**:
+  - **T109** `memories.event_id` column (foundation for T111 deep-link). FK CASCADE on `embeddings.memory_id` deferred (memories rows are never deleted today; defensive constraint can't fire — saved for broader migration cleanup in Phase 5).
+- **Wave 4 — drawer Phase 4.5 bundle (single)**:
+  - **T110** `event_id <= 0` guard in `delete_turn` + `html.escape()` on delete-impact modal + Jinja partial extraction + bulk significance re-rate per chat (one `manual_edit` event per memory).
+- **Wave 5 — search UX (single)**:
+  - **T111** FTS snippet highlighting via `snippet()` + deep-link to turn via `memories.event_id`.
+- **Wave 6 — real embedding model swap (single)**:
+  - **T112** `LLMClient.embed()` Protocol + Mock impl with `canned_embeddings` + `FeatherlessClient.embed()` (raises `NotImplementedError` — Featherless OAI-compat doesn't expose embeddings, gap documented) + `generate_embedding` routes non-default models through `client.embed()` with fallback + `--re-embed-all` backfill flag.
+- **Wave 7 — branching read-side filter (single)**:
+  - **T113** `active_branch_event_ids(conn)` helper + applied to `read_recent_dialogue`, `scene_summarize._read_recent_dialogue`, `search_memories`, and `meanwhile._read_recent_meanwhile_dialogue`. Cross-chat search and projector queries deliberately NOT filtered (cross-chat is by design; projectors must see full log). Bootstrap "main" branch (origin=0, head=0) detected as the no-clamp sentinel.
+- **Wave 8 — regenerate lifecycle rollback (single)**:
+  - **T114** `triggered_by_assistant_turn_id` payload back-reference on `event_started`/`event_completed`/`event_cancelled` + new `event_status_reverted` event kind + projector handler in `chat/state/events.py` + regenerate flow emits revert events for affected lifecycle transitions.
+- **Wave 9 — final polish + integration (parallel)**:
+  - **T115** sqlite-vec swap — **DEFERRED to Phase 5**. Pre-flight failed: host Python build doesn't expose `sqlite3.Connection.enable_load_extension` (raises `AttributeError`). Requires either Python rebuild with `--enable-loadable-sqlite-extensions` or migration to `apsw`. Phase 4 pure-Python cosine remains in production.
+  - **T116** structured `CannedQueue` test fixture builder + 2–3 POC test migrations (Phase 5 to migrate the rest).
+  - **T117** Phase 4.5 cross-feature integration tests (5 minimum: real embedding swap, branching read-side filter, lifecycle rollback, search deep-link, bulk significance re-rate).
+  - **T118** documentation (this section).
 
-- **`list_branches(chat_id=...)` filter leaks global branches** (`chat_id IS NULL`) into every chat scope. Intentional? Document.
+### Phase 5 backlog
-- **Branch-switch to nonexistent silently leaves zero active branches** — log a warning when this would happen.
 
-#### From T91 review
+New follow-ups discovered during Phase 4.5 reviews and execution, plus carry-over deferrals. None are blocking; pick up at any time.
 
-- **Real embedding model swap**: Phase 4 ships pseudo-embedding (deterministic SHA-256 hash). Phase 4.5+ should swap to a real model (Featherless `bge-small-en-v1.5` if available; or local `sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2`). The 384-dim is hardcoded in `0012_embeddings.sql`; if dim changes, migrate first.
+- **T115 sqlite-vec swap** (environmental blocker): host Python's `sqlite3.Connection` does not expose `enable_load_extension` — `python -c "import sqlite3; sqlite3.connect(':memory:').enable_load_extension(True)"` raises `AttributeError`. Fix requires either a Python rebuild with `--enable-loadable-sqlite-extensions` or migration to `apsw`. Pure-Python cosine remains in production until then.
-- **`timeout_s` unused on pseudo path** — fine, but log when non-default model falls through to fallback so misconfigured callers don't silently degrade.
+- **T108 follow-up: cancel-path commit bug** — `post_turn`'s re-raised `CancelledError` causes `open_db` dependency teardown to skip `conn.commit()`, rolling back all post-cancel writes. The existing T74.3 regression test passes only because `asyncio` isn't imported in the test module (NameError masks the real cancel path). Triage required — either commit before re-raise, or restructure the route to never re-raise after the close-detection branch.
-
+- **`embeddings` FK CASCADE on `memory_id`** — deferred from T109; do as part of a broader migration consolidation in Phase 5.
-#### From T96 review
+- **`CannedQueue` fixture migration** — T116 shipped the builder + POC migrations; remaining tests still use positional canned arrays. Migrate in Phase 5.
-
+- **Vector index optimization (HNSW)** — currently scales to a few thousand memories on the flat-index pure-Python cosine path; revisit when counts grow past flat-index feasibility.
-- **Duplicate `MAX(id)` lookup** between `_composite_rerank` and the fused-path tail — DRY follow-up.
+- **Branch-isolated `event_log`** — each branch has its own physical `event_log` range vs the current shared id space + head filter; full branch isolation is Phase 5+.
-- **`fts_rank=None` for vector-only rows** — document downstream contract.
+- **Embedding model swap migration tooling** — T112 added `--re-embed-all`; a more orchestrated swap (drain old worker, re-seed all memories, swap config) is Phase 5+.
-
+- **Real-time collaborative branching** (multi-user) — out of scope for v1.
-#### From T98 review
+- **Avatars / portraits** (multimodality) — deferred indefinitely per design §14.
-
-- **`event_id <= 0` guard in `delete_turn`** — currently silently rewinds everything if `event_id` is 0. Add `if event_id <= 0: 400`.
-- **`html.escape()` on `compute_delete_impact` output rendered into the modal** — defense in depth (currently model-controlled strings, but if event payload fields ever appear in descriptions, autoescape needed).
-- **Extract delete-impact modal HTML to a Jinja partial** — testability + autoescape inheritance.
-
-#### From T99 review
-
-- **Hoist `datetime`/`timezone` imports to module level** in `chat/web/snapshots.py`.
-- **`kind` defaulting in restore/preview** — reject missing `kind` rather than silent 404.
-- **`created_at` from file mtime** vs filename-encoded timestamp — small drift if files copied; document.
-
-#### From T100 review
-
-- **Hardcoded `k=50`** — extract to module constant.
-- **N+1 lookups (`get_bot`/`get_chat`/`get_scene` per row)** — fine at `k=50`, revisit if `k` grows.
-- **FTS highlighting via `snippet()`** — Phase 4 skipped this; UX nice-to-have.
-- **Result links chat-level only** — `memories` table has no `event_id` column; deep-linking to specific turn requires schema addition.
-
-#### Deferred items
-
-- **sqlite-vec swap** when host Python supports `enable_load_extension`.
-- **Real embedding model** with proper semantic similarity.
-- **Branching read-side filter**: T89 ships data-model + UI but event readers don't yet consult `is_active`. Each branch is metadata-only labeled ranges. Consult-on-read is Phase 4.5+ work.
-- **Bulk significance re-rate** in drawer (T98.2 deferred — only per-memory edit shipped).
-- **Vector index optimization** (HNSW) — only relevant if memory counts grow past pure-Python feasibility.
-- **`scene-close-on-cancel` UX revisit** (Phase 2.5 carry-over).
-- **Cross-feature canned-queue brittleness fixture builder** (Phase 3 carry-over).
-- **Full lifecycle-rollback in regenerate** — Phase 3.5 T83.4 shipped a warning log; proper rollback needs schema-level back-references (`triggered_by_assistant_turn_id` payload field).

+"""Structured test-fixture builder for ``MockLLMClient`` canned queues.
+
+Phase 4.5 (T116) carry-over from Phase 3. The turn-flow tests in
+``test_turn_flow.py``, ``test_meanwhile_turn_flow.py``,
+``test_phase3_integration.py``, and ``test_phase4_integration.py`` used
+to construct ``MockLLMClient`` canned-response queues as raw positional
+lists of pre-encoded JSON strings. That worked, but every time a new
+classifier call landed in a code path the tests had to be patched in
+many places at the right index — easy to mis-position, hard to read.
+
+This module ships :class:`CannedQueue`, a fluent builder that lets a
+test declare its classifier expectations by **name** and **order** of
+call, not by index into a brittle list. Each method appends one item
+to the queue and returns ``self`` for chaining; ``build()`` JSON-encodes
+the items and produces the flat ``list[str]`` that
+``MockLLMClient(canned=...)`` expects.
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+>>> from tests.fixtures import CannedQueue
+>>> from chat.llm.mock import MockLLMClient
+>>> canned = (
+...     CannedQueue()
+...         .parse_turn(segments=[{"kind": "dialogue", "text": "hello"}])
+...         .narrative("Hi there.")
+...         .state_update()
+...         .state_update()
+...         .build()
+... )
+>>> mock = MockLLMClient(canned=canned)
+
+Each method maps to a single classifier (or stream) call that the turn
+flow makes, in the order the production code makes them. Picking the
+right method for the slot you need keeps the test readable and lets the
+builder pin sensible defaults for the fields tests don't care about.
+
+Migration template
+------------------
+
+To migrate a positional canned-array test:
+
+1. Identify each slot in the existing array and what classifier it
+   feeds. Comments above the array often spell this out — start there.
+2. Replace each slot with the matching :class:`CannedQueue` method:
+
+   - ``json.dumps({"segments": [...]})`` → ``.parse_turn(segments=...)``
+   - bare narrative string → ``.narrative("...")``
+   - zero-state JSON  → ``.state_update()`` (defaults are zeros)
+   - ``json.dumps({"addressee_id": ...})`` → ``.detect_addressee(...)``
+   - ``json.dumps({"should_interject": ...})`` → ``.detect_interjection(...)``
+   - ``json.dumps({"should_close": ...})`` → ``.detect_scene_close(...)``
+   - ``json.dumps({"transitions": [...]})`` → ``.detect_event_transitions(...)``
+   - per-POV summary JSON → ``.summarize_scene_pov(summary=...)``
+3. End with ``.build()`` and pass that to
+   ``MockLLMClient(canned=...)``. The mock's contract is unchanged.
+
+Notes on streams
+----------------
+
+``MockLLMClient.stream`` and ``MockLLMClient.generate`` share one queue
+— each pop is one entry, regardless of whether the production code
+streams the response or generates it whole. The narrative service
+streams; classifier services generate. The builder treats both the same:
+``narrative()`` appends a raw string, the classifier methods append
+JSON-encoded dicts. Both end up in the same flat ``list[str]`` that the
+mock pops from in order.
+
+The remaining tests in the suite (about 30 across the four files
+mentioned above) still use positional arrays — Phase 5 work to migrate
+the rest. New tests should prefer this builder.
