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.

Future close-path additions will keep extending the queue. Consider a structured fixture builder rather than positional canned arrays. NOT addressed in Phase 3.5.

+## Phase 4 status
+
+Phase 4 polish shipped end-to-end across 15 tasks (T88–T102). Vector retrieval is functional via pure-Python cosine over a JSON-blob embeddings table (sqlite-vec deferred — host Python lacks loadable extensions). Branching is data-model + drawer UI. Surgical delete with cascade preview, hide-from-view soft delete, significance review panel, snapshot UX, and cross-chat search all surface from the drawer or top-bar. Test count grew from 343 (Phase 3.5) to ~413 (+70 new tests).
+
+- **Wave 1 — schema + Phase 3.6 carry-overs (parallel)**:
+  - **T88** `embeddings` table + projector handlers (pure-Python cosine, JSON-blob storage; sqlite-vec deferred).
+  - **T89** `branches` table + handlers (main bootstrapped; `is_active` flag; partial unique index).
+  - **T90** Phase 3.6 carry-overs trio — `read_recent_dialogue` chat-id SQL pushdown, lifecycle warning wording tightening, legacy `record_turn_memory` removed.
+- **Wave 2 — services (parallel)**:
+  - **T91** embedding generation service (Phase 4 ships a deterministic SHA-256-derived pseudo-embedding; real model swap is Phase 4.5+).
+  - **T92** vector search service via pure-Python cosine.
+  - **T93** cross-chat search service (FTS5 across all owners, no witness filter — admin-style).
+- **Wave 3 — services (parallel)**:
+  - **T94** branching service (`branch_from_event`, `switch_active_branch`, `list_branches_with_metadata`).
+  - **T95** delete-impact computation service (cascade preview, no DB mutation).
+- **Wave 4 — combined retrieval (single)**:
+  - **T96** combined FTS + vector retrieval ranking via reciprocal-rank fusion (RRF, `RRF_CONST=60`); existing significance/recency boost applied as final pass.
+- **Wave 5 — memory write hook + backfill (single)**:
+  - **T97** `EmbeddingWorker` drains queue and emits `embedding_indexed` events; `memory_write` enqueues per `memory_written`; `backfill_embeddings` script for existing memories; ALL 4 production call sites wired (turns, regenerate, meanwhile, drawer).
+- **Wave 6 — drawer Phase 4 bundle (single, 5 sub-features)**:
+  - **T98.1** branching UI (Branches panel + 3 routes).
+  - **T98.2** significance review panel (distribution bar chart + per-memory edit).
+  - **T98.3** hide-from-view toggle + `turn_hidden` `manual_edit` branch.
+  - **T98.4** surgical delete with cascade preview (reuses existing rewind path; pre-rewind snapshot preserved).
+  - **T98.5** remaining v1 edits — `narrative_anchor` + weather drawer affordances + 2 new `manual_edit` branches.
+- **Wave 7 — UX surfaces (parallel)**:
+  - **T99** snapshot UX (manual trigger, list, restore with hard-confirm, preview).
+  - **T100** cross-chat search UX (top-bar form + results page).
+- **Wave 8 — polish (parallel)**:
+  - **T101** cross-feature integration tests (5 multi-feature scenarios).
+  - **T102** documentation (this section).
+
+### Phase 4.5 / 5 backlog
+
+All items shipped or deferred to Phase 5 (see "Phase 5 backlog" below). Final schema version: 14.
+
+## Phase 4.5 status
+
+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).
+
+- **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).
+
+### Phase 5 backlog
+
+New follow-ups discovered during Phase 4.5 reviews and execution, plus carry-over deferrals. None are blocking; pick up at any time.
+
+- **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.
+- **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.
+- **`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.
+- **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+.
+- **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.
+- **Avatars / portraits** (multimodality) — deferred indefinitely per design §14.

+-- Two schema concerns are bundled into this migration:

+-- 1. ``embeddings.memory_id`` FK should ideally carry ``ON DELETE CASCADE``
+--    (T88 review nit). DEFERRED to Phase 5: ``embeddings`` rows are only ever
+--    deleted when the parent ``memories`` row is deleted, and ``memories``
+--    rows are never deleted today (memory hide is a soft flag; the surgical

+--    to projection rows). The CASCADE constraint therefore can't fire under
+--    current usage — adding the SQLite table-rebuild dance (rename, recreate,
+--    copy, drop, reindex) for a defensive constraint is unwarranted bloat
+--    in a polish wave. Revisit during the broader Phase 5 migration cleanup
+--    when other table reshapes make the rebuild worthwhile.
+--
+-- 2. Add ``memories.event_id`` (NULLABLE INTEGER, references ``event_log.id``)
+--    so cross-chat search results can deep-link back to the originating
+--    turn (foundation for T111). The column is nullable so historical

+Wraps T93's :func:`chat.services.cross_chat_search.search_all_memories`
+in a small read-only HTML surface so the top-bar search input has
+somewhere to land. The route does no filtering of its own beyond the
+empty-query fast-path that T93 already implements; ranking, owner
+scope, and witness scope all live in the service layer.
+
+For each match we hydrate just enough metadata to render a row:
+* the owner bot's display name (so users see "BOTA" not "bot_a"),
+* the originating ``chat_id`` (the link target — there's no per-turn
+  anchor today because memories don't carry an ``event_id`` column,
+  so we deep-link to the chat as a whole),
+* the originating scene title when one exists,
+* and the ``pov_summary`` itself.
+
+T106 (Phase 4.5): hydration is batched. Pre-T106 the route called
+``get_bot``/``get_chat``/``get_scene`` once per result row — N+1 with
+``DEFAULT_SEARCH_K=50`` meaning up to 150 individual SELECTs per page
+load. We now collect distinct ids first and fan-in via three
+``WHERE id IN (...)`` queries, then map back per row.
+
+We deliberately keep this module synchronous and template-only — no
+HTMX swaps, no JSON API — because the search box is a "leave the
+current chat to look something up" surface, not an inline drawer.

+Surfaces the existing snapshot service (``chat/services/snapshot.py``)

+without dropping to a shell.
+
+Routes:
+
+* ``GET  /snapshots``                    list all snapshots (both kinds)
+* ``POST /snapshots/take``               take a periodic snapshot now
+* ``POST /snapshots/restore/{id}``       restore (requires matching ``confirm_id`` and ``kind``)
+* ``GET  /snapshots/{id}/preview``       show metadata + delta vs current
+
+The ``snapshot_id`` is the filename stem (the UTC timestamp written by
+:func:`chat.services.snapshot.take_snapshot`) — there's no separate UUID,
+and the timestamp filename is already unique per snapshot kind. Both
+periodic and rewind snapshots share the same id space lookup-wise, so
+the restore + preview routes require ``kind`` as a form/query param to
+disambiguate (a missing/empty ``kind`` is a 400, not a silent default).
+
+Note on ``created_at`` mtime drift: the listing's ``created_at`` comes
+from the file's mtime, not the encoded filename timestamp. ``cp -p``
+preserves mtime, but plain ``cp`` resets it to "now" — so a copied
+snapshot can show a misleading ``created_at`` while its filename still
+reflects the original UTC capture time.

See "Phase 4.5 status" in CLAUDE.md for the per-task breakdown — notable shipped: real embedding model swap path (`LLMClient.embed()` + `--re-embed-all`), branching read-side filter (`active_branch_event_ids`), regenerate lifecycle rollback (`event_status_reverted`), FTS snippet highlighting + deep-link to turn (`memories.event_id`), bulk significance re-rate.

+# Roleplay Engine — Phase 4 Implementation Plan
+
+> **For Claude:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use `superpowers-extended-cc:executing-plans` to implement this plan task-by-task. Use the parallel-dispatch pattern documented under "Parallel-Execution Strategy" for parallel waves.
+
+**Goal:** Land Phase 4 polish per requirements doc §13 + §14: vector retrieval, branching UI, drawer-edit on every field, backup tooling, significance review UI, surgical delete with cascade preview, hide-from-view soft delete, plus cross-chat search and the small Phase 3.6 carry-over fixes.
+
+**Architecture:** Builds on Phase 3.5's stable base. Two new tables (`embeddings`, `branches`) and one external dependency (sqlite-vec extension). Embedding generation runs as a deferred async job — NOT inline with turns — so the play loop stays fast even when the embedding endpoint is slow. Branching is data-model-only at first (events + selectors); UI grafts on top. Surgical delete + cascade preview reuses the existing rewind-and-supersede plumbing. Cross-chat search piggybacks on the existing FTS5 + (now) vector retrieval.
+
+**Tech Stack:**
+
+- **NEW dependency: `sqlite-vec`** (or `sqlite-vss` — Phase 4 picks; recommended `sqlite-vec` for simpler load semantics and active maintenance). Add to `pyproject.toml`.
+- **Embedding model selection** is part of T91 spec. Recommended default: a small model on Featherless (e.g., `BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5` if available) or a local CPU-friendly model via `sentence-transformers`. Document choice in CLAUDE.md.
+- Same as Phase 3 otherwise (Python 3.11+, FastAPI, HTMX, SQLite).
+
+**Source-of-truth references:**
+
+- Phase 4 scope: requirements doc §13 "Phase 4 — polish" + §14 "Open / Deferred Decisions".
+- Behavioral details: §6 (prompt assembly + retrieval), §10 (rewind / regenerate / reset), §11 (compression + significance), §12 (snapshots).
+- Conventions: [`CLAUDE.md`](../../CLAUDE.md) §"Behavioral defaults" + §"Phase 3 status" + §"Phase 3.5 status".
+- Phase 3.5 cleanup plan (style, file-bundling pattern): [2026-04-26-v3.5-phase3.5-cleanup.md](2026-04-26-v3.5-phase3.5-cleanup.md).
+
+---
+
+## Pre-flight
+
+**Branch:** create `phase-4` from the latest `main` after Phase 3.5 has merged (it has — main is at `1b66a28`):
+
+```bash
+git checkout main && git pull && git checkout -b phase-4
+```
+
+**Schema baseline:** Phase 3.5 leaves the DB at version 11. Phase 4 adds two migrations: `0012_embeddings.sql` and `0013_branches.sql`. Final schema version: 13.
+
+**External dependency setup (BEFORE T88 dispatch):**
+
+The controlling agent should add `sqlite-vec` to `pyproject.toml` and run `pip install -e .` (or equivalent) so all worktrees pick up the new dependency. Confirm `sqlite_vec` imports cleanly:
+
+```bash
+python -c "import sqlite_vec; print(sqlite_vec.__version__)"
+```
+
+If `sqlite_vec` isn't on PyPI when this plan executes, fall back to `sqlite-vss` and adapt T88/T92 accordingly. Both expose vector-search SQL via a loadable extension.
+
+**Pinned non-negotiables (carried forward):**
+
+- State changes go through the event log. Use `append_and_apply(conn, kind, payload)` for the live path; `apply_event` only after a fresh `append_event` returning the new id.
+- Witness filter every memory read at SQL level (hard `WHERE` constraint; never a soft signal).
+- Per-POV scene summaries — never write omniscient narration.
+- TDD: every task starts with a failing test (or a regression test pinning existing contract before refactor).
+- One commit per task minimum. Tasks that bundle multiple sub-features SHOULD split commits internally.
+
+**Verification before claiming done:** Use `superpowers-extended-cc:verification-before-completion` — run the test command, paste actual output. Don't assume green.
+
+---
+
+## Phase 3.6 carry-overs folded in
+
+Three small items from Phase 3.6 backlog are bundled into Phase 4's Wave 1 trivial-fixes task (T90):
+
+1. `read_recent_dialogue` chat-id pushdown into SQL (T80 review nit)
+2. Lifecycle warning wording in regenerate (T83.4 — "at-or-after turn X" tightening)
+3. Legacy single-bot `record_turn_memory` consolidation (T84 review nit)
+
+Three items remain DEFERRED beyond Phase 4 (Phase 4.5 if needed):
+
+- Scene-close-on-cancel UX revisit (no action unless real play surfaces a regression).
+- Cross-feature canned-queue brittleness (structured fixture builder for tests — not blocking).
+- Full lifecycle-rollback in regenerate (warning log already shipped in T83.4; proper rollback needs schema-level back-references, deferred indefinitely).
+
+---
+
+## Parallel-Execution Strategy
+
+Same pattern as Phase 3.5. Eight waves: parallel within each wave (file-disjoint), serial across waves.
+
+### How to dispatch a wave in parallel
+
+Use the **Agent tool with `isolation: "worktree"`** so each subagent gets its own git worktree. (If the controlling session's working directory is **not** the chat repo, create worktrees manually with `git worktree add .worktrees/<wave>-<task> -b <wave>/<task> phase-4` from inside the chat repo.)
+
+Dispatch all tasks in a wave in a single message:
+
+```
+Agent({ description: "Wave 1 — T88 embeddings table", prompt: "...", isolation: "worktree" })
+Agent({ description: "Wave 1 — T89 branches table", ... })
+Agent({ description: "Wave 1 — T90 phase 3.6 carry-overs", ... })
+```
+
+### After a wave completes
+
+1. Each subagent returns its worktree path and commit SHA(s).
+2. **Run a spec + code-quality reviewer subagent on each completed task.** Combined review acceptable for trivial tasks (T90 carry-overs); separate spec + quality reviewers for vector-retrieval tasks (T91, T92, T96, T97) since the integration surface is wider.
+3. **Merge the wave into `phase-4`** in any order (file-disjointness guarantees no conflict). Use `--no-ff`.
+4. **Run the full test suite** on the merged `phase-4`. If red, the wave's mutual-independence assumption was violated — bisect, fix, re-merge.
+5. **Push `phase-4`** to gitea.
+6. Optionally clean up worktrees.
+
+### Conflict prevention checklist
+
+For each parallel wave, verify the **Files** sections of all tasks have **no overlapping paths**. Hot files in this plan: `chat/web/drawer.py` + `chat/templates/_drawer.html` (T98 only — bundled), `chat/state/memory.py` (T96 only), `chat/services/memory_write.py` (T90 + T97 — sequential), `chat/web/turns.py` (T98 only via delete affordance — sequential after T96).
+
+### Why each wave is parallel-safe
+
+| Wave | Tasks | Hot files touched | Disjoint? |
+|------|-------|-------------------|-----------|
+| 1 | T88, T89, T90 | new migrations + new state modules; T90 touches `turn_common.py` + `regenerate.py` + `memory_write.py` (additive only) | ✅ |
+| 2 | T91, T92, T93 | new service modules (embeddings, vector_search, cross_chat_search) | ✅ |
+| 3 | T94, T95 | new service modules (branching, delete_impact) | ✅ |
+| 4 | T96 | `chat/state/memory.py` (combined retrieval ranking) | (single task) |
+| 5 | T97 | `chat/services/memory_write.py` + new backfill script | (single task) |
+| 6 | T98 | `chat/web/drawer.py` + `chat/templates/_drawer.html` (drawer Phase 4 bundle) | (single task) |
+| 7 | T99, T100 | new files: `chat/web/snapshots.py` + `chat/templates/snapshots.html` (T99); `chat/web/search.py` + `chat/templates/search.html` + small chat.html top-bar addition (T100) | ✅ (disjoint) |
+| 8 | T101, T102 | new test file (T101); CLAUDE.md + design doc (T102) | ✅ |

+
+## Wave 1 — Schema foundation + Phase 3.6 carry-overs (parallel)
+
+### Task 88: Embeddings table + projector handlers
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `chat/db/migrations/0012_embeddings.sql`
+- Create: `chat/state/embeddings.py`
+- Create: `tests/test_embeddings_state.py`
+- Modify: `pyproject.toml` (add `sqlite-vec` dependency — controlling agent should pre-install before dispatch; the worktree commits the dependency declaration)
+
+**Spec:**
+
+Adds the `embeddings` table that stores per-memory embedding vectors for vector retrieval. Uses `sqlite-vec` virtual-table syntax for cosine-similarity search. Schema:
+
+```sql
+-- Load sqlite-vec extension at connection time (handled in chat/db/connection.py).
+-- Embeddings are stored as blobs in a vec0 virtual table for fast similarity search.
+
+CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE embeddings USING vec0(
+    memory_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
+    embedding FLOAT[384]   -- 384-dim default; adjust per chosen model
+);
+
+-- Sidecar table for non-vector metadata (model used, dim, indexed_at).
+CREATE TABLE embeddings_meta (
+    memory_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
+    model TEXT NOT NULL,
+    dim INTEGER NOT NULL,
+    indexed_at TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT (datetime('now')),
+    FOREIGN KEY (memory_id) REFERENCES memories(id)
+);
+```
+
+(If `sqlite-vss` is chosen instead, replace `vec0` with `vss0` and adapt the dim declaration. Both have similar Python loading semantics.)
+
+**`chat/state/embeddings.py`:**
+
+- `@on("embedding_indexed")` payload `{memory_id, model, dim, vector: list[float]}`. Inserts into both `embeddings` and `embeddings_meta`. Idempotent via `INSERT OR REPLACE` (re-indexing a memory replaces the prior vector).
+- `@on("embedding_deindexed")` payload `{memory_id}`. Deletes from both tables. Used when a memory is purged via reset/cascade.
+- Reader `get_embedding_meta(conn, memory_id) -> dict | None` returns the meta row.
+
+The `chat/db/connection.py` `open_db` helper needs to load the sqlite-vec extension on each connection. Add:
+
+```python
+import sqlite_vec
+# Inside open_db, after connection is opened:
+conn.enable_load_extension(True)
+sqlite_vec.load(conn)
+conn.enable_load_extension(False)
+```
+
+This is a small modification to `connection.py`. Include it in T88's diff.
+
+**Tests:** 3 minimum.
+
+1. `test_embedding_indexed_inserts_row`: append `bot_authored`, `chat_created`, `memory_written` (creates a memory), then `embedding_indexed` with `vector=[0.1] * 384`. Project. Assert `embeddings_meta` row exists for that memory_id with the right model.
+2. `test_embedding_deindexed_removes_row`: same setup; index then de-index; assert row is gone.
+3. `test_vector_similarity_search_returns_nearest`: index two memories with distinct vectors; query for nearest neighbor of one vector; assert correct memory_id returned. Uses `sqlite-vec`'s `MATCH '...'` syntax (verify against actual sqlite-vec docs; adapt if needed).
+
+If running tests requires sqlite-vec to be loaded, the test fixture may need to skip / xfail when the extension isn't installed. Use `pytest.importorskip("sqlite_vec")` at the top of the test file.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: embeddings table + projector handlers via sqlite-vec (T88)`.
+
+**Notes:**
+
+- Schema version after migration alone: 12. T89 adds 0013, taking final to 13. The schema_version assertion in `tests/test_world.py` updates to 13 in the wave-merge step.
+- The `connection.py` change is small but cross-cutting — affects every `open_db` call. Verify the existing 343 tests still pass after the change.
+
+---
+
+### Task 89: Branches table + projector handlers
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `chat/db/migrations/0013_branches.sql`
+- Create: `chat/state/branches.py`
+- Create: `tests/test_branches_state.py`
+
+**Spec:**
+
+Adds the `branches` table that records named alternate event-log forks. A branch is metadata: a name, an `origin_event_id` (the event we forked from), and a `head_event_id` (the latest event in this branch). The event log itself is unchanged — the branch table just **labels** linear ranges of event ids.
+
+```sql
+CREATE TABLE branches (
+    id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
+    name TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE,
+    origin_event_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
+    head_event_id INTEGER NOT NULL,
+    chat_id TEXT,
+    created_at TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT (datetime('now')),
+    is_active INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0
+);
+
+-- Exactly one row may have is_active = 1 at any time.
+CREATE UNIQUE INDEX branches_active_idx ON branches(is_active) WHERE is_active = 1;
+```
+
+The "main" branch is implicit and bootstrapped by the migration: `INSERT INTO branches (name, origin_event_id, head_event_id, is_active) VALUES ('main', 0, 0, 1);`. Subsequent branches reference an `origin_event_id` (the event that the branch forked from).
+
+`chat/state/branches.py`:
+
+- `@on("branch_created")` payload `{name, origin_event_id, chat_id?, head_event_id}`. Inserts a new row with `is_active=0`. Idempotent re-insertion via `INSERT OR IGNORE`.
+- `@on("branch_switched")` payload `{name}`. Sets `is_active=1` on the named branch and `is_active=0` on all others. Atomic via a single UPDATE.
+- `@on("branch_head_updated")` payload `{name, head_event_id}`. Updates `head_event_id` on the named branch. Used by the orchestrator when new events extend the branch.
+- Readers: `get_branch(conn, name)`, `list_branches(conn, chat_id=None)`, `active_branch(conn)`.
+
+**Tests:** 3 minimum.
+
+1. `test_branch_created_inserts_row`: append `branch_created` with name="experiment", origin_event_id=42; project; assert `get_branch(conn, "experiment")` returns the row.
+2. `test_branch_switched_atomic`: seed two branches; switch from one to the other; assert exactly one is active.
+3. `test_main_branch_bootstrapped_by_migration`: open a fresh DB, apply migrations; assert `active_branch(conn)["name"] == "main"`.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: branches table + projector handlers (T89)`.
+
+**Notes:**
+
+- Schema version after this migration alone: 13. Combined with T88: 13 (since T88 was 12, T89 stacks). Wave-merge bumps `tests/test_world.py` schema_version assertion to 13.
+- This task does NOT yet teach the orchestrator to consult `is_active` — the existing event_log queries assume a single timeline. T98 (drawer branching UI) will enable user-driven switches, but the actual "follow only the active branch" filter on event reads is a follow-up (Phase 4.5 nit; document in T102 docs sweep).
+
+---
+
+### Task 90: Phase 3.6 carry-overs trio
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `chat/services/turn_common.py` (push chat_id filter into SQL)
+- Modify: `chat/services/regenerate.py` (lifecycle warning wording tightening)
+- Modify: `chat/services/memory_write.py` (consolidate legacy `record_turn_memory` into the unified API or delete it)
+- Modify: `tests/test_turn_common.py`, `tests/test_regenerate.py`, `tests/test_memory_write.py`
+
+**Spec:** Three small Phase 3.6 carry-over fixes bundled because each is 1-line + 1-test.
+
+#### 90.1 — `read_recent_dialogue` chat-id SQL pushdown
+
+Per T80 review nit. Currently `read_recent_dialogue` filters chat_id post-fetch in Python. Push into SQL for tighter LIMIT semantics:
+
+```sql
+SELECT id, kind, payload_json
+FROM event_log
+WHERE kind IN ('user_turn', 'user_turn_edit', 'assistant_turn')
+  AND superseded_by IS NULL
+  AND hidden = 0
+  AND json_extract(payload_json, '$.chat_id') = ?
+ORDER BY id DESC
+LIMIT ?
+```
+
+Then the post-fetch loop becomes a simple reverse + slice — no chat_id check needed.
+
+**Test added:** `test_read_recent_dialogue_limit_respects_chat_scope` — seed two chats with 60 turns each; query chat_a with `limit=50`; assert returned rows are exactly 50 chat_a rows (not 50 cross-chat rows that filter down to <50 after Python).
+
+**Commit:** `perf: read_recent_dialogue pushes chat-id filter into SQL (T90.1)`.
+
+#### 90.2 — Lifecycle warning wording tightening
+
+Per T83.4 review nit. Current warning lists "lifecycle transitions from superseded turn are NOT being rolled back". When user regenerates an OLDER turn (T29 supports this), the warning lists intervening-turn transitions that legitimately stand. Tighten wording to "lifecycle transitions at-or-after turn X" so operators reading logs aren't misled.
+
+Change is one log message string. Test asserts the new wording appears.
+
+**Commit:** `chore: clarify regenerate lifecycle warning wording (T90.2)`.
+
+#### 90.3 — Legacy `record_turn_memory` consolidation
+
+Per T84 review nit. The original Phase 1 single-bot `record_turn_memory` function still exists alongside the unified `record_turn_memory_for_present`. Either:
+
+- (a) Remove the legacy function entirely; update any remaining callers to use the unified API.
+- (b) Convert it to a thin wrapper for backward compat.
+
+Pick (a) if there are zero remaining callers; (b) if any callers exist. Read the codebase to confirm. The mock-data seed scripts may still use the legacy fn.
+
+**Commit:** `refactor: consolidate legacy record_turn_memory into unified API (T90.3)`.
+
+**TDD process for T90:**
+
+1. Read all 3 affected files + their tests.
+2. Implement 90.1 with test; commit.
+3. Implement 90.2 with test; commit.
+4. Implement 90.3 with test; commit.
+5. Run full suite — should be 343 + 3 = 346 (or +2 if 90.3 had no behavioral change).
+

+
+## Wave 2 — Embedding & search services (parallel)
+
+Three new service modules. Fully file-disjoint.
+
+### Task 91: Embedding generation service
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `chat/services/embeddings.py`
+- Create: `tests/test_embeddings.py`
+
+**Spec:** Wraps the embedding API call. Signature:
+
+```python
+class EmbeddingResult(BaseModel):
+    vector: list[float]
+    model: str
+    dim: int
+
+async def generate_embedding(
+    client: LLMClient,    # or a separate embedding-specific client
+    *,
+    text: str,
+    model: str,
+    timeout_s: float = 30.0,
+) -> EmbeddingResult:
+    """Generate an embedding vector for the given text. Falls back to a
+    zero-vector with model='fallback' on failure (so callers get a deterministic
+    sentinel they can detect and skip indexing)."""
+```
+
+**Implementation:** call the embedding endpoint (Featherless OpenAI-compatible `/v1/embeddings`, or a local `sentence-transformers` model). Add a new method `client.embed(text, model)` to `LLMClient` Protocol (and to `MockLLMClient` and `FeatherlessClient`).
+
+**Embedding model choice:**
+
+Default to a small CPU-friendly model accessible through the existing Featherless setup:
+
+- If Featherless has `BAAI/bge-small-en-v1.5` or similar 384-dim model: use that.
+- If not: fall back to local `sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2` (384-dim, runs CPU). Add `sentence-transformers` to `pyproject.toml`.
+- Document choice in CLAUDE.md (T102 docs sweep).
+
+The 384 dim is hardcoded in T88's migration. If a different model with different dim is chosen, update T88's schema accordingly BEFORE T88 dispatches.
+
+**Tests:** 3 minimum.
+
+1. `test_generate_embedding_returns_vector_of_correct_dim`: mock embedding response with a 384-element vector; assert returned `vector` length is 384.
+2. `test_generate_embedding_returns_correct_model_metadata`: assert `result.model` matches the input.
+3. `test_generate_embedding_falls_back_on_failure`: mock the client to raise; assert the result is a 384-element zero vector with `model="fallback"`.
+

+
+### Task 92: Vector search service via sqlite-vec
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `chat/services/vector_search.py`
+- Create: `tests/test_vector_search.py`
+
+**Spec:** Wraps sqlite-vec's `MATCH` syntax for cosine-similarity search over the `embeddings` virtual table. Witness-filter aware (joins through `memories` table for the witness check).
+
+```python
+def vector_search(
+    conn,
+    *,
+    owner_id: str,
+    witness_role: str,    # "you" | "host" | "guest"
+    query_vector: list[float],
+    k: int = 4,
+) -> list[dict]:
+    """Return top-K memories by cosine similarity to query_vector,
+    witness-filtered for the requesting bot's POV. Returns same row
+    shape as state.memory.search_memories for combined-ranking
+    compatibility."""
+```
+
+SQL pattern (sqlite-vec):
+
+```sql
+SELECT m.id, m.text, m.pov_summary, m.significance, e.distance
+FROM embeddings e
+JOIN memories m ON m.id = e.memory_id
+WHERE e.embedding MATCH ?
+  AND k = ?
+  AND m.owner_id = ?
+  AND m.witness_<role> = 1
+ORDER BY e.distance ASC
+LIMIT ?
+```
+
+(Adapt to actual sqlite-vec syntax — use `vec0` MATCH semantics. The `witness_<role>` interpolation needs the same allowlist guard pattern as Phase 2.5 T72.3.)
+
+**Tests:** 3 minimum.
+
+1. `test_vector_search_returns_nearest_neighbors`: index 5 memories with synthetic vectors; query for nearest 3; assert correct order.
+2. `test_vector_search_respects_witness_filter`: index a memory with witness `[1, 1, 0]`; query with `witness_role="guest"`; assert empty result.
+3. `test_vector_search_respects_owner_filter`: index memories for two owners; assert query for owner_a doesn't return owner_b's memories.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: vector search service via sqlite-vec (T92)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 93: Cross-chat search service
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `chat/services/cross_chat_search.py`
+- Create: `tests/test_cross_chat_search.py`
+
+**Spec:** FTS5-based search across ALL chats and all owners (admin-style search; no witness filter). For "where did I last see this person mention X?" queries.
+
+```python
+def search_all_memories(
+    conn,
+    *,
+    query: str,
+    k: int = 20,
+) -> list[dict]:
+    """Search FTS across all owners and chats. Returns rows with
+    {memory_id, owner_id, chat_id, text, pov_summary, scene_id,
+    significance, ts}. Sorted by FTS rank."""
+```
+
+This is intentionally NOT witness-filtered — it's a power-user search surface. The UI (T100) prompts the user to acknowledge they're seeing memories across POVs.
+
+**Tests:** 3 minimum.
+
+1. `test_search_all_memories_returns_matches_across_owners`: seed 2 owners with overlapping keyword; search; assert both owner's matches appear.
+2. `test_search_all_memories_orders_by_fts_rank`: seed memories with varying FTS-match strength; assert order.
+3. `test_search_all_memories_respects_k_limit`.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: cross-chat search service (FTS5 over all owners) (T93)`.

+
+## Wave 3 — Branching + delete services (parallel)
+
+Two new service modules. Fully file-disjoint.
+
+### Task 94: branch_from_event service
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `chat/services/branching.py`
+- Create: `tests/test_branching.py`
+
+**Spec:**
+
+```python
+def branch_from_event(
+    conn,
+    *,
+    name: str,
+    origin_event_id: int,
+    chat_id: str | None = None,
+) -> int:
+    """Create a new named branch forking from origin_event_id.
+    Emits a branch_created event. Returns the new branch's row id.
+    Raises ValueError if name already exists."""
+
+def switch_active_branch(conn, *, name: str) -> None:
+    """Make the named branch active. Emits branch_switched. Subsequent
+    event reads should consult is_active to filter."""
+
+def list_branches_with_metadata(conn, chat_id: str | None = None) -> list[dict]:
+    """List branches with: name, origin_event_id, head_event_id, is_active,
+    event_count (number of events between origin and head, inclusive),
+    created_at."""
+```
+
+Tests cover: basic create, duplicate-name raises, switch updates `is_active` exclusively, list returns metadata.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: branching service (T94)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 95: Delete-impact computation service
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `chat/services/delete_impact.py`
+- Create: `tests/test_delete_impact.py`
+
+**Spec:** Computes the cascade impact of deleting a single event_log row (or a turn group: user_turn + assistant_turn + interjection if any). Returns a structured `ImpactReport` for the UI to render.
+
+```python
+class DeletedItem(BaseModel):
+    kind: str           # "memory" | "edge_update" | "scene_close" | etc.
+    description: str    # human-readable
+    target_id: int | str | None
+
+class ImpactReport(BaseModel):
+    target_event_id: int
+    cascading: list[DeletedItem]
+    notes: list[str]    # warnings, e.g. "this turn opened scene_X which has 3 subsequent turns"
+
+def compute_delete_impact(conn, *, target_event_id: int) -> ImpactReport:
+    """Walk the event log forward from target_event_id and identify
+    everything that depends on this event: child memory_written events,
+    edge_update events with this turn as source, scene_closed events
+    triggered by this turn, etc. Also identify subsequent turns that
+    REFERENCE this event (regenerated_from chains, etc.).
+    
+    Does NOT mutate the database. Pure computation for preview."""
+```
+
+The actual delete (truncate + supersede) is the existing rewind path from Phase 1 T31. T95 just builds the preview.
+
+**Tests:** 4 minimum.
+
+1. `test_impact_for_simple_turn_lists_memory_and_edges`: seed a chat with a turn that wrote 1 memory + 2 edge_updates. Compute impact. Assert the 3 items appear in `cascading`.
+2. `test_impact_for_scene_opening_turn_warns_about_subsequent_turns`: seed a turn that opened a scene + 5 subsequent turns. Assert `notes` mentions the dependency.
+3. `test_impact_for_regenerated_turn_lists_supersede_chain`: seed a turn that's been regenerated (has `superseded_by`). Compute impact for the original. Assert the chain appears.
+4. `test_impact_does_not_mutate_database`: snapshot event_log before + after; assert byte-identical.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: delete-impact computation service (T95)`.

+
+## Wave 4 — Combined retrieval ranking (single)
+
+### Task 96: Combined FTS + vector retrieval ranking
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `chat/state/memory.py` — extend `search_memories` to optionally include vector hits
+- Modify: `tests/test_memory_search.py` — add 4 tests
+
+**Spec:**
+
+`search_memories` currently does FTS5 + Python-side significance/recency re-rank. Phase 4 adds:
+
+- An optional `query_vector: list[float] | None = None` kwarg.
+- When `query_vector` is provided, run `vector_search` (T92) for top-K-vector candidates.
+- Merge with FTS top-K candidates via reciprocal-rank fusion (RRF) or a simpler sum-of-ranks scheme — implementer's choice. Document the merge formula.
+- Final result is top-K from the fused set, with the existing significance + recency boosts applied as a final pass.
+
+When `query_vector` is None: existing behavior unchanged. Phase 1/2/3 callers that don't pass `query_vector` see no change.
+
+**Implementation note:** the embedding for the query (the speaker's recent context) must be generated by the caller (Wave 5 T97 wires the prompt-assembly pipeline to call `generate_embedding` on the dialogue tail). T96 only handles the search side — assumes the vector is pre-computed.
+
+**Tests:** 4 added.
+
+1. `test_search_memories_without_query_vector_uses_fts_only`: regression — call without `query_vector`; assert the existing FTS+rerank behavior.
+2. `test_search_memories_with_query_vector_includes_vector_hits`: index 5 memories where 1 is FTS-only-matching, 1 is vector-only-matching, 3 are unrelated. Pass both `query=...` and `query_vector=...`. Assert both the FTS hit and the vector hit appear in results.
+3. `test_search_memories_fusion_significance_bias_still_applies`: confirm the existing significance bias rerank still works on top of fused results.
+4. `test_search_memories_fusion_handles_empty_vector_results`: pass a vector for a memory that has no embeddings indexed; assert FTS-only results still come back.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: combined FTS + vector retrieval ranking (T96)`.
+
+---
+
+## Wave 5 — Memory write hook + backfill (single)
+
+### Task 97: Embedding generation hook + backfill script
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `chat/services/memory_write.py` — after each `memory_written` event, enqueue a background embedding job
+- Create: `chat/services/embedding_worker.py` — async worker that consumes the queue and emits `embedding_indexed` events
+- Create: `scripts/backfill_embeddings.py` — one-time script that walks all existing memories and embeds them
+- Modify: `chat/app.py` — wire the embedding worker into the lifespan startup
+- Modify: `tests/test_memory_write.py` — add 2 tests for the enqueue hook
+- Create: `tests/test_embedding_worker.py` — 3 tests for the worker drain logic
+
+**Spec:**
+
+After each successful `memory_written` event, enqueue an embedding job. The worker dequeues and:
+
+1. Reads the memory text (via `get_memory(conn, memory_id)`).
+2. Calls `generate_embedding(client, text=memory.text, model=settings.embedding_model)`.
+3. Appends `embedding_indexed` event with the result. (Skip if `result.model == "fallback"` — leave the memory un-indexed; will retry later via backfill.)
+
+The worker pattern mirrors Phase 1's `chat/services/significance.py` SignificanceWorker. Reuse its queue + lifecycle pattern.
+
+**Backfill script:**
+
+```bash
+.venv/bin/python scripts/backfill_embeddings.py [--limit N] [--dry-run]
+```
+
+Walks all memories where no `embeddings_meta` row exists. For each, generates an embedding and emits `embedding_indexed`. Useful for the initial migration after Phase 4 lands AND for periodic re-runs if an embedding model changes.
+
+**Tests:**
+
+`tests/test_memory_write.py`:
+1. `test_record_turn_memory_enqueues_embedding_job`: monkeypatch the worker's enqueue method; record_turn_memory_for_present; assert the worker received a job per memory.
+
+`tests/test_embedding_worker.py`:
+1. `test_worker_drains_jobs_and_emits_indexed_events`: enqueue 3 jobs with mock embeddings; run worker; assert 3 `embedding_indexed` events landed.
+2. `test_worker_skips_fallback_results`: mock the embedding service to return a fallback result; assert NO `embedding_indexed` event landed for that job.
+3. `test_worker_handles_concurrent_jobs_serially`: pin the Featherless 2-conn cap behavior (worker calls embed sequentially under the existing semaphore).
+
+**Commit (split):**
+
+- `feat: embedding worker drains queue and emits embedding_indexed events (T97.1)`
+- `feat: memory_write enqueues embedding job after each memory_written (T97.2)`
+- `feat: backfill_embeddings script for existing memories (T97.3)`
+
+**Verification gates:**
+
+- All Phase 1/2/3/3.5 memory tests still pass (regression critical).
+- New tests pass.
+- Manual smoke: run `scripts/backfill_embeddings.py --dry-run` against a seeded DB and verify expected count.

+
+## Wave 6 — Drawer Phase 4 bundle (single task)
+
+### Task 98: Drawer Phase 4 features
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `chat/web/drawer.py` (add many new POST routes and GET extensions)
+- Modify: `chat/templates/_drawer.html` (add 5 new sections)
+- Create: `tests/test_drawer_phase4.py`
+
+**Spec:** Drawer affordances for 5 Phase 4 features. Single task by hot-file constraint; split into 5 commits internally.
+
+#### 98.1 — Branching UI
+
+GET drawer extension: `list_branches_with_metadata(conn)` → render in a "Branches" section (active branch highlighted + count of events).
+
+POST routes:
+- `/drawer/branch/create` — form `{name, origin_event_id}` → `branch_from_event` service.
+- `/drawer/branch/switch` — form `{name}` → `switch_active_branch`.
+- `/drawer/branch/from-turn/{event_id}` — convenience: branch from a specific turn (used by per-turn UI affordance).
+
+#### 98.2 — Significance review panel
+
+GET extension: significance distribution per chat (`SELECT significance, COUNT(*) GROUP BY significance`) → render histogram.
+
+POST route:
+- `/drawer/memory/significance/{memory_id}` — form `{new_value}` (already supported via T22 `manual_edit` `target_kind=memory_significance`); just add the UI form.
+
+Bulk re-rate is a Phase 4.5 polish — not in scope here. Just per-memory edit + distribution display.
+
+#### 98.3 — Hide-from-view toggle
+
+POST route:
+- `/drawer/turn/hide/{event_id}` — form `{hidden: bool}` → emits a `manual_edit` with `target_kind="turn_hidden"`.
+
+NEW `manual_edit` projector branch for `turn_hidden`: sets `event_log.hidden = ?` for the target event. Reuses the existing `hidden` column.
+
+UI affordance: per-turn checkbox in the chat surface or drawer (per-turn list with hide toggle).
+
+#### 98.4 — Surgical delete with cascade preview
+
+GET extension:
+- `/drawer/turn/delete-preview/{event_id}` → returns the `ImpactReport` (T95) rendered as a modal.
+
+POST route:
+- `/drawer/turn/delete/{event_id}` — invokes the rewind-and-truncate path (Phase 1 T31's `rewind_to_turn`) restricted to the target turn group.
+
+Important: this reuses the existing pre-rewind snapshot path so the action is undoable.
+
+#### 98.5 — Remaining v1 edits
+
+Audit: are any v1 fields STILL not editable from the drawer? Phase 2.5 T72.1 added edge_trust/edge_summary/memory_pov_summary/edge_knowledge_facts. T72.3 added witness flags. Anything left?
+
+Likely candidates: scene `narrative_anchor`, scene `weather`, container `properties` JSON. Add edit forms for any that surface during the audit. If none, this sub-fix is a no-op.
+
+**Tests:** 8+ in `tests/test_drawer_phase4.py` (one per sub-feature × happy path; plus 1 for the cascade-preview rendering).
+
+**Commits (5):**
+
+- `feat: drawer branching UI (T98.1)`
+- `feat: drawer significance review panel (T98.2)`
+- `feat: drawer hide-from-view toggle + manual_edit turn_hidden branch (T98.3)`
+- `feat: drawer surgical delete with cascade preview (T98.4)`
+- `feat: drawer remaining v1 field edits (T98.5)` (or "no-op audit" if nothing left)
+
+---
+
+## Wave 7 — Snapshot + cross-chat search UX (parallel)
+
+### Task 99: Snapshot UX
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `chat/web/snapshots.py` (new route module)
+- Create: `chat/templates/snapshots.html` (snapshot list page)
+- Modify: `chat/templates/layout.html` (add "Snapshots" nav link)
+- Create: `tests/test_snapshot_ux.py`
+
+**Spec:** Surface the existing snapshot infrastructure (Phase 1 T20 wrote snapshots; Phase 4 makes them visible).
+
+GET `/snapshots` — list all snapshots (periodic + pre-rewind) with metadata: kind, created_at, event_log_size, file_size_bytes.
+
+POST `/snapshots/take` — manually trigger a snapshot now.
+
+POST `/snapshots/restore/{snapshot_id}` — restore from snapshot (with hard confirmation).
+
+GET `/snapshots/{snapshot_id}/preview` — show what's in the snapshot vs. current state.
+
+**Tests:** 4 minimum (list, take, restore, preview).
+
+**Commit:** `feat: snapshot UX (manual trigger, list, restore) (T99)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 100: Cross-chat search UX
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `chat/web/search.py` (new route module)
+- Create: `chat/templates/search.html` (search results page)
+- Modify: `chat/templates/layout.html` (add top-bar search input)
+- Create: `tests/test_search_ux.py`
+
+**Spec:** Top-bar search box submits to `/search?q=...`. Results page shows up to 50 matches across all chats and all owners (uses T93's `search_all_memories`). Each result shows: chat name, owner bot name, scene context, memory text excerpt with FTS highlight, "Open chat at this turn" link.
+
+**Tests:** 3 minimum.
+1. Search returns results from multiple chats.
+2. Empty query returns empty result set.
+3. Result links navigate to the right chat anchor.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: cross-chat search UX (top-bar input + results page) (T100)`.
+
+---
+
+## Wave 8 — Polish (parallel)
+
+### Task 101: Cross-feature integration tests
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Create: `tests/test_phase4_integration.py`
+
+**Spec:** End-to-end multi-feature flows. 5 tests minimum.
+
+1. **Vector retrieval feedback loop**: write a memory → embedding worker indexes it → search retrieves it via vector path.
+2. **Branch + diverge**: create branch B from turn 10 → switch to B → play 3 new turns → switch back to main → assert main's turn 11+ are still intact.
+3. **Surgical delete**: compute impact for a turn → confirm → assert event log truncated correctly + pre-rewind snapshot saved.
+4. **Hide + retrieval**: hide a turn → assert it doesn't appear in `read_recent_dialogue` (existing `hidden = 0` filter) → unhide → assert it reappears.
+5. **Cross-chat search**: write memories in 3 chats → search for keyword present in all 3 → assert all 3 appear in results.
+
+**Commit:** `test: phase 4 cross-feature integration coverage (T101)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 102: Phase 4 documentation update
+
+**Files:**
+
+- Modify: `CLAUDE.md` (add "Phase 4 status" section; update behavioral defaults; add "Phase 4.5 / 5 backlog" with carry-overs)
+- Modify: `docs/plans/2026-04-26-v1-requirements-design.md` (annotate §13 Phase 4 as **Status: shipped 2026-04-27**)
+
+**Spec:**
+
+Mirror the Phase 3 / 3.5 status sections. Document:
+
+- **Vector retrieval**: sqlite-vec virtual table, embedding worker async pipeline, combined FTS + vector ranking via RRF.
+- **Branching**: forks the event log; UI in drawer; `is_active` flag plus orchestrator filter (caveat — see backlog if filter not yet wired into all readers).
+- **Drawer-edit on every field**: branching, significance review, hide-from-view, surgical delete with preview, plus any audit findings.
+- **Backup tooling**: snapshots panel surfaces existing infra.
+- **Significance review UI**: distribution + per-memory edit.
+- **Surgical delete + cascade preview**: piggybacks on rewind path; impact report from T95.
+- **Hide-from-view soft delete**: `manual_edit` `turn_hidden` branch.
+- **Cross-chat search**: top-bar + results page over T93's service.
+
+**Phase 4.5 / 5 backlog candidates** (reflect any discovered during execution):
+
+- Branching read-side filter — if T89's `is_active` isn't yet consulted by every event reader, this is the work to do.
+- Bulk significance re-rate (per T98.2 deferral).
+- Snapshot retention policy UI controls (per Phase 1 T19 deferred).
+- Auto-pin override UI (per Phase 2 design).
+- Embedding model swap migration tooling (when changing embedding model, need to re-embed everything).
+- Vector index optimization (HNSW vs flat — Phase 5 if needed).
+- Carry-overs that remained deferred from Phase 3.6: scene-close-on-cancel UX revisit, canned-queue brittleness fixture builder, full lifecycle rollback in regenerate.
+
+**Commit:** `docs: phase 4 status, behavioral defaults, deferred items (T102)`.
+
+---
+
+## Wrap-up
+
+After Wave 8 lands:
+
+1. **Run full suite** on `phase-4`: should be ~390+ tests passing (343 from Phase 3.5 + ~50 new).
+2. **Manual smoke** (recommended before opening the PR):
+   - Run `scripts/backfill_embeddings.py` against a seeded DB to verify vector indexing works.
+   - Search for a phrase that's substring-distinct but semantically similar to a memory; verify vector path returns it (FTS would miss).
+   - Create a branch from an old turn; switch; play a few turns; switch back.
+   - Trigger surgical delete on a turn; verify the impact preview matches what actually gets removed.
+   - Hide a turn; verify it disappears from the chat surface; unhide.
+   - Use top-bar search to find a phrase; verify cross-chat results appear.
+   - Click the "Snapshots" nav link; trigger a manual snapshot; verify it appears.
+3. **Push `phase-4`** to gitea.
+4. **Open PR** `phase-4 → main`.
+
+---
+
+## Notes for the controller running this plan
+
+- **External dependency**: `sqlite-vec` (or `sqlite-vss`) MUST be added to `pyproject.toml` and installed BEFORE Wave 1 dispatches. The migration in T88 expects the extension to be loadable.
+- **Embedding model choice**: pin in T91 spec before dispatch. The 384 dim is hardcoded in T88's migration; if a different dim is used, update T88 first.
+- **After each parallel wave**, run a code-review subagent. Combined spec+quality acceptable for trivial tasks (T90 carry-overs); separate spec + quality reviewers for vector-retrieval and integration tasks (T91, T96, T97, T98, T101) — surface area is larger.
+- **Don't dispatch Wave 5 until Wave 4 merged green.** T97 (memory_write enqueue) calls into the embedding-aware worker; the worker uses T91's `generate_embedding`. Both must be merged into `phase-4` first.
+- **Don't dispatch Wave 6 until Wave 5 merged green.** T98 (drawer) wires UI affordances over services from earlier waves.
+- **Token-spend rough estimate**: Phase 4 should be ~70-80% the size of Phase 3 (similar scope, larger per-task because vector + branching are non-trivial). Per-task spend similar to Phase 3's larger tasks (T59, T64).
+- **DO NOT break existing v1/v2/v3/v3.5 surface contracts.** Every test file that was green at the start of Phase 4 must stay green at the end. The cross-feature integration tests from Phase 3 (`tests/test_phase3_integration.py`) are particularly load-bearing.

+# Roleplay Engine — Phase 4.5 Cleanup Plan
+
+> **For Claude:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use `superpowers-extended-cc:executing-plans` to implement this plan task-by-task. Use the parallel-dispatch pattern documented under "Parallel-Execution Strategy" for parallel waves.
+
+**Goal:** Burn down all 24 items in `CLAUDE.md` §"Phase 4.5 / 5 backlog". Mix of small defensive cleanups (most), three big features (real embedding model swap, branching read-side filter, lifecycle rollback in regenerate), one environment-dependent feature (sqlite-vec swap), and the long-deferred carry-overs (scene-close-on-cancel revisit, structured test-fixture builder).
+
+**Architecture:** No new architecture. Two new schema migrations (0014 schema polish, 0015 sqlite-vec virtual tables). New external dependency optional (`apsw` if Python rebuild isn't possible). All other changes are polish / refactor / observability.
+
+**Tech Stack:**
+
+- Existing — same as Phase 4.
+- **OPTIONAL:** rebuild Python with `--enable-loadable-sqlite-extensions` OR install `apsw` to enable T115 sqlite-vec swap. T115 is the only task that requires this; the other 13 tasks land without it. If neither is available, T115 is deferred to Phase 5.
+
+**Source-of-truth references:**
+
+- Backlog: [`CLAUDE.md`](../../CLAUDE.md) §"Phase 4.5 / 5 backlog" (24 items grouped by review source + deferred).
+- Phase 3.5 / Phase 2.5 cleanup plans (pattern reference): [2026-04-26-v3.5-phase3.5-cleanup.md](2026-04-26-v3.5-phase3.5-cleanup.md), [2026-04-26-v2.5-phase2.5-cleanup.md](2026-04-26-v2.5-phase2.5-cleanup.md).
+- Conventions: [`CLAUDE.md`](../../CLAUDE.md) §"Behavioral defaults" + §"Phase 4 status".
+
+---
+
+## Pre-flight
+
+**Branch:** create `phase-4.5` from the latest `main`:
+
+```bash
+git checkout main && git pull && git checkout -b phase-4.5
+```
+
+**Schema baseline:** Phase 4 leaves the DB at version 13. Phase 4.5 adds two migrations: `0014_phase45_schema.sql` (T109) and `0015_vec0_virtual_tables.sql` (T115 — only lands if T115 ships). Final schema version: 14 or 15.
+
+**Optional pre-flight for T115 (sqlite-vec swap):**
+
+The host Python build needs `enable_load_extension`. Two options:
+
+1. **Rebuild Python** via pyenv with `PYTHON_CONFIGURE_OPTS="--enable-loadable-sqlite-extensions" pyenv install 3.12.0 --force` and recreate the venv.
+2. **Add `apsw`** as a dependency and migrate `chat/db/connection.py` to use `apsw.Connection` (significant refactor — the entire codebase uses stdlib `sqlite3`).
+
+If neither is acceptable, **defer T115** to Phase 5 and ship Phase 4.5 with 13 tasks instead of 14. The other tasks are unaffected.
+
+**Pinned non-negotiables (carried forward):**
+
+- State changes go through the event log. Use `append_and_apply` for the live path.
+- Witness filter every memory read at SQL level.
+- TDD: every task starts with a failing test (or a regression test pinning existing contract before refactor).
+- One commit per task minimum. Bundled tasks split internally.
+
+**Verification before claiming done:** Use `superpowers-extended-cc:verification-before-completion` — run the test command, paste actual output.

+
+## Parallel-Execution Strategy
+
+Same pattern as Phase 3.5 / Phase 2.5 / Phase 4. Nine waves: parallel within each wave (file-disjoint), serial across waves.
+
+### How to dispatch a wave in parallel
+
+Use the **Agent tool with `isolation: "worktree"`**. (If the controlling session's working directory is **not** the chat repo, create worktrees manually with `git worktree add .worktrees/<wave>-<task> -b <wave>/<task> phase-4.5`.)
+
+### After a wave completes
+
+1. Each subagent returns its worktree path and commit SHA(s).
+2. **Run a spec + code-quality reviewer subagent on each completed task.** Combined review acceptable for trivial tasks (T103–T108); separate spec + quality reviewers for big tasks (T112, T113, T114, T115).
+3. **Merge the wave into `phase-4.5`** in any order (file-disjointness guarantees no conflict). Use `--no-ff`.
+4. **Run the full test suite** on the merged `phase-4.5`.
+5. **Push `phase-4.5`** to gitea.
+6. Optionally clean up worktrees.
+
+### Conflict prevention checklist
+
+For each parallel wave, verify the **Files** sections of all tasks have **no overlapping paths**. Hot files in this plan (each owned by exactly one task): `chat/state/memory.py`, `chat/web/drawer.py`, `chat/web/search.py`, `chat/services/regenerate.py`, `chat/services/turn_common.py`, `chat/services/embeddings.py`, `chat/db/migrations/`.
+
+### Why each wave is parallel-safe
+
+| Wave | Tasks | Hot files | Disjoint? |
+|------|-------|-----------|-----------|
+| 1 | T103, T104, T105, T106, T107, T108 | 6 different files; no overlap | ✅ |
+| 2 | T109 | new migration + minor projector update | (single task) |
+| 3 | T110 | `chat/web/drawer.py` (bundle) | (single task) |
+| 4 | T111 | `chat/services/cross_chat_search.py` + `chat/web/search.py` + template | (single task; depends on T109) |
+| 5 | T112 | `chat/services/embeddings.py` + `chat/llm/*.py` (Protocol + Featherless + Mock) | (single task) |
+| 6 | T113 | `chat/services/turn_common.py` + multiple readers (cross-cutting) | (single task) |
+| 7 | T114 | `chat/services/regenerate.py` + projector handler | (single task) |
+| 8 | T115 | new migration + `chat/services/vector_search.py` + `chat/db/connection.py` | (single task; environmental) |
+| 9 | T116, T117, T118 | new test fixture file (T116); new test file (T117); CLAUDE.md (T118) | ✅ |

+
+---
+
+## Wave 1 — Independent small fixes (parallel, 6 tasks)
+
+All trivial, file-disjoint. Each is 1-line + 1-test or similar.
+
+### Task 103: branches polish
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `chat/state/branches.py`
+- Modify: `tests/test_branches_state.py`
+
+**Spec (2 sub-fixes, single commit):**
+
+1. **Document global-branch leak**: `list_branches(chat_id=...)` filter `chat_id = ? OR chat_id IS NULL` returns global/null-chat branches (like "main") in every chat scope. Add a docstring note explaining this is intentional ("main" is global by design; per-chat branches are scoped).
+
+2. **Warn on branch-switch to nonexistent name**: in `_apply_branch_switched`, before the SQL UPDATE, check if a branch with the given name exists. If not, emit `logging.getLogger(__name__).warning(...)` rather than silently leaving zero active branches.
+
+**Test:** `test_branch_switched_unknown_name_warns` — capture log via `caplog`, append `branch_switched` for nonexistent name, assert warning message + no active branch (existing behavior preserved, just observable).
+
+**Commit:** `chore: branches polish — global-leak docs + unknown-name warning (T103)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 104: state/memory.py polish
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `chat/state/memory.py`
+- Modify: `tests/test_memory_search.py` (no new tests; just add docstring assertions if needed)
+
+**Spec (2 sub-fixes):**
+
+1. **DRY `MAX(id)` lookup**: `_composite_rerank` (Phase 3.5 T57) and `_rrf_fuse_and_rerank` (Phase 4 T96) both query `SELECT MAX(id) FROM event_log` for the recency boost. Extract a `_max_event_id(conn)` helper.
+
+2. **`fts_rank=None` documentation**: search_memories docstring should note that vector-only rows have `fts_rank=None`. Downstream consumers must accept None (they currently do, but contract is implicit).
+
+**Test:** existing tests cover both via the public API; no new test needed unless docstring assertion is desired.
+
+**Commit:** `chore: memory.py DRY MAX(id) helper + document fts_rank=None contract (T104)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 105: snapshots.py polish
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `chat/web/snapshots.py`
+- Modify: `tests/test_snapshot_ux.py` (1 new test)
+
+**Spec (3 sub-fixes):**
+
+1. **Hoist `datetime`/`timezone` imports** to module level (currently inside `_list_all_snapshots`).
+
+2. **Strict `kind` validation in restore/preview routes**: currently `kind` defaults to `"periodic"`. If a rewind snapshot is requested without explicit `kind`, the lookup silently 404s. Reject missing `kind` with a 400 instead of silently defaulting.
+
+3. **Document `created_at` mtime drift risk** in module docstring: snapshot timestamps come from file mtime, not the encoded filename timestamp. Files copied via `cp -p` preserve mtime; `cp` without `-p` resets it. Add a one-line note.
+
+**Test:** `test_restore_without_kind_returns_400` — POST `/snapshots/restore/<id>` without `kind`; assert 400.
+
+**Commit:** `chore: snapshots.py polish — hoisted imports + strict kind + mtime doc (T105)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 106: search.py polish
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `chat/web/search.py`
+- Modify: `tests/test_search_ux.py` (1 new test)
+
+**Spec (2 sub-fixes):**
+
+1. **Hardcoded `k=50` → module constant**: extract `DEFAULT_SEARCH_K = 50` at module level. Tunable without code change at the call site.
+
+2. **N+1 lookup batching**: GET `/search?q=...` currently calls `get_bot(conn, owner_id)`, `get_chat(conn, chat_id)`, `get_scene(conn, scene_id)` per result row (worst case 50×3 = 150 individual queries). Batch via `WHERE id IN (...)` queries: collect distinct ids first, fetch in 3 batched queries, then map back per row.
+
+**Test:** `test_search_results_use_batched_lookups` — mock `get_bot`/`get_chat`/`get_scene` and assert each is called once (not per row). OR easier: time the search with 50 results and assert it doesn't degrade linearly with `k`.
+
+**Commit:** `perf: search.py N+1 batching + k constant extraction (T106)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 107: embeddings.py timeout_s fallback-path logging
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `chat/services/embeddings.py`
+- Modify: `tests/test_embeddings.py` (1 new test)
+
+**Spec:**
+
+When `model != DEFAULT_EMBEDDING_MODEL` and falls through to fallback (zero-vector with model="fallback"), log a `warning` so misconfigured callers (e.g., a Phase 4.5+ caller pointing at a real model that doesn't exist) don't silently degrade.
+
+```python
+if model != DEFAULT_EMBEDDING_MODEL:
+    _log.warning(
+        "generate_embedding: non-default model %r returned fallback "
+        "(model client.embed() not yet implemented in Phase 4.5+); "
+        "downstream search will degrade silently. Configure a supported model.",
+        model,
+    )
+    return EmbeddingResult(...)  # fallback
+```
+
+The Phase 4 default path (`model == DEFAULT_EMBEDDING_MODEL` → pseudo-embedding) is silent; only non-default models trigger the warning.
+
+**Test:** `test_generate_embedding_non_default_model_logs_warning` — call with `model="real-model"`; capture log via `caplog`; assert the warning message appears.
+
+**Commit:** `chore: embeddings.py warns on fallback for non-default models (T107)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 108: scene-close-on-cancel UX revisit
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `tests/test_turn_flow.py` (extend the existing pin test added in Phase 2.5 T74.3 OR add a new one)
+- Optionally modify: `chat/web/turns.py` if a real bug surfaces during investigation
+
+**Spec:**
+
+This carry-over has been pending since Phase 2.5 T74.3. The pinned behavior: scene close fires even when the primary turn is cancelled mid-stream, because `detect_scene_close` consults user prose (fully present at cancel time), not bot output.
+
+**Action:**
+
+1. **Re-investigate** by reading the post_turn cancellation path. Confirm the rationale still holds (it should — nothing about the close-detection logic changed in Phase 3 or 4).
+2. **Strengthen the regression test** in `tests/test_turn_flow.py` (the existing `test_cancelled_turn_still_closes_scene_when_user_prose_signals_close`). Add an assertion that the user prose IS present at the moment scene_close_decision fires (even though the bot output isn't).
+3. If investigation surfaces an actual UX issue (e.g., the close fires too eagerly on prose like "fade out... actually wait"), this becomes a real fix — but default action is documentation-only.
+
+**Default outcome:** add a docstring comment to the post_turn close-detection branch explaining the rationale. No behavioral change.
+
+**Test (extend existing):** assert ordering — `scene_closed` event lands AFTER the user_turn event but BEFORE any potential assistant_turn (which is cancelled). Pin the contract.
+
+**Commit:** `chore: scene-close-on-cancel — strengthen regression test + document rationale (T108)`.
+
+---
+
+## Wave 2 — Schema migration (single)
+
+### Task 109: 0014 schema migration
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `chat/db/migrations/0014_phase45_schema.sql`
+- Modify: `chat/state/memory.py` or `chat/services/memory_write.py` (populate the new `event_id` column on memory_written)
+- Modify: `tests/test_world.py` (bump schema_version assertion to 14)
+- Modify: `tests/test_memory_write.py` (assert event_id populated)
+
+**Spec:**
+
+Two schema changes bundled into a single migration:
+
+1. **`embeddings.memory_id` FK gets `ON DELETE CASCADE`** (T88 review nit). SQLite doesn't support `ALTER TABLE ... ALTER COLUMN`, so the standard pattern is: rename old table, create new, copy data, drop old, recreate indices. Alternatively, since this is a new-ish table (Phase 4 added it) and the change is purely defensive, document as "WONTFIX in 4.5; deindex events remain the only deletion path; ON DELETE CASCADE remains a Phase 5 candidate when we do a broader migration cleanup". Choose pragmatically.
+
+2. **Add `memories.event_id INTEGER` column** (NULL allowed for backward compat) referencing `event_log.id`. This is the foundation for T111's deep-linking from cross-chat search results to specific turns. Migration adds the column; the projector for `memory_written` populates it from the event id when projecting.
+
+**Production code change:** in the `memory_written` projector handler (in `chat/state/memory.py` or wherever it lives), populate the new `event_id` column with the projecting event's `id`. The `Event` object has `id` available in the projector context.
+
+**Tests:**
+
+1. `test_schema_version_after_migration_is_14` (rename + bump from 13).
+2. `test_memory_written_populates_event_id` — append memory_written; project; query memories table; assert `event_id` is the projecting event's id.
+3. (Backward compat) older memories from existing seed data have NULL `event_id` — the column is nullable.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: 0014 schema — embeddings FK CASCADE (deferred or applied) + memories.event_id column (T109)`.
+
+---
+
+## Wave 3 — Drawer Phase 4.5 bundle (single)
+
+### Task 110: drawer polish + bulk significance re-rate
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `chat/web/drawer.py`
+- Modify: `chat/templates/_drawer.html`
+- Create: `chat/templates/_delete_impact_modal.html` (extracted partial)
+- Modify: `chat/state/manual_edit.py` (potentially — if bulk re-rate emits a new manual_edit kind)
+- Modify: `tests/test_drawer_phase4.py` (extend with 4-5 new tests)
+
+**Spec (4 sub-fixes, 4 commits):**
+
+1. **`event_id <= 0` guard in `delete_turn`** (T98 nit): currently silently rewinds everything if `event_id` is 0. Add `if event_id <= 0: raise HTTPException(400, "...")`.
+
+2. **`html.escape()` on delete-impact modal** (T98 nit): the rendered HTML in `compute_delete_impact` output is built via raw f-strings from model-controlled strings. Wrap user-controllable fields with `html.escape()`. Defense-in-depth — currently safe, but if event payload fields ever appear in descriptions, autoescape would prevent XSS.
+
+3. **Extract delete-impact modal HTML to a Jinja partial**: create `chat/templates/_delete_impact_modal.html`; render via `templates.TemplateResponse(...)` instead of f-string concatenation. Inherits Jinja2 autoescape automatically. Tests use the existing TestClient pattern.
+
+4. **Bulk significance re-rate** (T98.2 deferral): drawer panel showing memory significance distribution per chat. New POST route `/chats/{chat_id}/drawer/memory/significance/bulk` accepting `{level_from, level_to}` form fields. Updates ALL memories in the chat at `level_from` to `level_to` via a sequence of `manual_edit` events (one per memory — preserves the audit trail).
+
+**Tests:**
+
+1. `test_delete_turn_with_event_id_zero_returns_400`.
+2. `test_delete_impact_modal_uses_jinja_partial` (assert response renders the partial template; verify with `assert b"<div class=\"delete-impact-modal\">" in response.content` or similar).
+3. `test_delete_impact_modal_escapes_user_controllable_strings` — seed an event with a payload containing `<script>` in a description-bound field; render preview; assert it appears HTML-escaped.
+4. `test_bulk_significance_re_rate_emits_manual_edit_per_memory` — seed 5 memories at significance 0; bulk re-rate to 2; assert 5 `manual_edit` events landed.
+
+**Commits (4):**
+- `fix: drawer delete_turn guards event_id <= 0 (T110.1)`
+- `fix: drawer delete-impact modal HTML escapes user-controllable fields (T110.2)`
+- `refactor: drawer delete-impact modal extracted to Jinja partial (T110.3)`
+- `feat: drawer bulk significance re-rate per chat (T110.4)`

+
+## Wave 4 — Search UX enhancements (single)
+
+### Task 111: FTS highlighting + deep-link to turn
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `chat/services/cross_chat_search.py`
+- Modify: `chat/web/search.py`
+- Modify: `chat/templates/search.html`
+- Modify: `tests/test_search_ux.py`
+
+**Spec (2 sub-fixes, 2 commits):**
+
+1. **FTS highlighting via `snippet()`** (T100 nit): replace the `pov_summary` column in `search_all_memories`'s SELECT with `snippet(memories_fts, 0, '<mark>', '</mark>', '…', 32)` to return a highlighted snippet around the match. The template renders this raw via `|safe` (the snippet is built by SQLite from indexed content; the `<mark>` tags are the only HTML, and SQLite escapes any HTML special chars in the source content).
+
+2. **Deep-link to turn via memories.event_id** (T100 nit + T109 dependency): now that `memories.event_id` exists (from T109), each search result row knows the originating event id. The chat page uses turn-id stamping (Phase 3.5 T86 added `id="turn-{event_id}"`). Build result links as `/chats/{chat_id}#turn-{event_id}`. The chat page DOM scrolls to the anchor on load (browser default).
+
+**Tests:**
+
+1. `test_search_results_include_fts_snippet_with_highlight` — seed memory with text containing "rabbit"; search for "rabbit"; assert response body contains `<mark>rabbit</mark>` (or whatever marker the snippet uses).
+2. `test_search_result_link_includes_turn_anchor` — seed memory with known event_id; search; assert link href contains `#turn-{event_id}`.
+
+**Commits (2):**
+- `feat: cross-chat search FTS snippet highlighting (T111.1)`
+- `feat: cross-chat search deep-links to turn via memories.event_id (T111.2)`
+

+
+## Wave 5 — Real embedding model (single)
+
+### Task 112: Real embedding model swap
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `chat/llm/client.py` (Protocol — add `embed(text, model) -> list[float]` method)
+- Modify: `chat/llm/featherless.py` (FeatherlessClient — implement `embed` against Featherless `/v1/embeddings` endpoint OR equivalent)
+- Modify: `chat/llm/mock.py` (MockLLMClient — accept canned embedding vectors)
+- Modify: `chat/services/embeddings.py` (route non-default model through `client.embed()`)
+- Modify: `chat/config.py` (add `embedding_model: str` setting; default to current pseudo)
+- Modify: `scripts/backfill_embeddings.py` (re-embed-all option for model swaps)
+- Modify: `tests/test_embeddings.py` + `tests/test_llm_mock.py` + `tests/test_featherless.py` (if exists)
+
+**Spec:**
+
+Phase 4 ships a deterministic SHA-256 pseudo-embedding (deterministic but semantically meaningless). T112 wires the path for a real embedding model.
+
+**Steps:**
+
+1. **Extend `LLMClient` Protocol** with `async def embed(self, text: str, *, model: str) -> list[float]`.
+
+2. **Implement on FeatherlessClient**: call the Featherless OpenAI-compatible `/v1/embeddings` endpoint:
+   ```python
+   response = await self._http.post(
+       "/v1/embeddings",
+       json={"model": model, "input": text},
+       headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {self._api_key}"},
+   )
+   data = response.json()
+   return data["data"][0]["embedding"]
+   ```
+   Handle rate limits (existing 2-conn semaphore covers this).
+
+3. **Implement on MockLLMClient**: `embed` pops a canned vector from a new `canned_embeddings` queue. Tests configure this queue.
+
+4. **Update `generate_embedding`**: when `model != DEFAULT_EMBEDDING_MODEL`, call `client.embed(text, model=model)` instead of falling through to fallback. Wrap in try/except — failures fall back to zero vector (existing fallback path).
+
+5. **Settings**: add `embedding_model: str = "pseudo-sha256-384"` to `Settings`. App reads this at startup; the embedding worker (`chat/services/embedding_worker.py`) passes it through.
+
+6. **Backfill script**: add `--re-embed-all` flag that walks ALL memories (regardless of existing `embeddings_meta` rows) and re-embeds with the configured model. Useful for swapping models.
+
+**Tests:**
+
+1. `test_embed_routes_to_client_when_non_default_model` — mock client with canned vector; call `generate_embedding(model="bge-small-en-v1.5")`; assert vector matches the canned response.
+2. `test_embed_falls_back_on_client_failure` — mock client to raise; assert returns zero vector with model="fallback".
+3. `test_mock_llm_client_embed_pops_canned`.
+4. `test_featherless_embed_calls_correct_endpoint` (if there's an existing featherless test pattern; otherwise mock the HTTP layer).
+
+**Commits:**
+- `feat: LLMClient Protocol gains embed() method (T112.1)`
+- `feat: FeatherlessClient.embed() against /v1/embeddings (T112.2)`
+- `feat: generate_embedding routes non-default models through client.embed (T112.3)`

+## Wave 6 — Branching read-side filter (single, BIG)
+
+### Task 113: Branching read-side filter
+
+**Files (cross-cutting):**
+- Modify: `chat/services/turn_common.py::read_recent_dialogue` — filter events to active branch's range
+- Modify: `chat/services/scene_summarize.py::_read_recent_dialogue` (similar)
+- Modify: `chat/state/memory.py::search_memories` — memories should be filtered to active branch (memories.event_id from T109 enables this)
+- Modify: `chat/state/branches.py` — add helper `active_branch_event_ids(conn) -> tuple[int, int]` returning (origin, head)
+- Add tests across multiple files
+- Modify: `tests/test_branching.py` — add cross-feature tests
+
+**Spec:**
+
+Phase 4 T89 + T94 shipped branching as metadata-only (the table tracks branches; the drawer UI can switch). But event readers DON'T consult `is_active` — they read the entire event_log. So switching branches has no functional effect.
+
+T113 wires the filter:
+
+1. **Helper** `active_branch_event_ids(conn) -> tuple[int, int]`: returns `(origin_event_id, head_event_id)` for the currently active branch. For "main" with origin=0 + head=N, returns `(0, N)` meaning "all events visible".
+
+2. **Apply filter** in every event reader that returns historical state:
+   - `read_recent_dialogue`: WHERE clause adds `id BETWEEN ? AND ?` (the active branch's range).
+   - `search_memories`: WHERE clause adds `m.event_id BETWEEN ? AND ?` (uses T109's column).
+   - `scene_summarize._read_recent_dialogue`: same as turn_common.
+   - Other readers TBD — grep for `event_log` SELECT patterns and audit each one.
+
+3. **Branches that diverge**: when branch B is created from event 10 and then accumulates events 11-15 (which only exist on B's timeline), but main also accumulates 11-12, the events overlap by id range. This is OK because event reads filter by `id <= active_branch.head_event_id`. The simpler model: branches share event_log ids globally, but each branch's "head" defines which ids are visible.
+
+4. **Events written under branch B** carry an implicit branch tag — but the event_log table has no `branch_id` column today. T113 punts on cross-branch event writes (they all land in the global log) and relies on the `head_event_id` filter to scope reads. This is a Phase 4.5+ first cut; full branch-isolated event_log is Phase 5+.
+
+**Edge cases:**
+
+- Active branch has `head_event_id = 0` (just created): readers return empty.
+- No active branch: readers fall through to "all events visible" (defensive).
+- Switching branches mid-flight: each `read_recent_dialogue` call re-queries `active_branch`, so it's always current. No caching.
+
+**Tests:** 5+ minimum.
+
+1. `test_read_recent_dialogue_respects_active_branch_head` — seed 10 events; active branch head = 5; assert only first 5 returned.
+2. `test_search_memories_respects_active_branch_head` — same.
+3. `test_branch_switch_changes_visible_events` — switch branches; immediately read; assert different result sets.
+4. `test_main_branch_with_head_zero_returns_empty` — defensive.
+5. `test_no_active_branch_falls_through_to_all_events` — defensive.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: branching read-side filter — event readers consult active branch range (T113)`.
+
+**This is the largest task in Phase 4.5.** Estimate 200-400 lines across multiple files. Implementer should split commits if it helps clarity (one per affected reader).

+
+## Wave 7 — Lifecycle rollback in regenerate (single)
+
+### Task 114: Lifecycle rollback
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `chat/services/regenerate.py`
+- Modify: `chat/db/migrations/0014_phase45_schema.sql` (T109's migration) — add column? OR
+- Add new migration — see decision below
+- Modify: tests in `tests/test_regenerate.py`
+
+**Spec:**
+
+Phase 3.5 T83.4 shipped a warning log when regenerate detects un-rolled-back lifecycle transitions. T114 implements actual rollback.
+
+**Schema decision:**
+
+Option A: extend lifecycle event payloads with `triggered_by_assistant_turn_id` (no schema change needed — just a payload convention). Production code (T61 turn flow) populates it when emitting `event_started`/`event_completed`/`event_cancelled`. Existing rows have NULL — rollback skips them with a debug log.
+
+Option B: add a column to `event_log` for stronger invariants. Significant migration cost.
+
+**Recommended:** Option A. Safer, no migration, backward compatible (older events skip rollback). Document in commit body.
+
+**Rollback semantics:**
+
+When regenerate detects lifecycle events triggered by the superseded turn:
+- `event_started` → emit `event_cancelled` (or a NEW `event_started_undone` event kind that reverts status to "planned") with the same event_id.
+- `event_completed` → emit `event_uncompleted` (NEW event kind that reverts status from "completed" to "active").
+- `event_cancelled` → emit `event_uncancelled` (reverts to prior status — which we'd need to track; or simpler: emit `event_started` again to restore "active").
+
+**Simpler approach (recommended):** add ONE new event kind `event_status_reverted` with payload `{event_id, prior_status}`. The projector sets `events.status = prior_status` for the event_id. Rollback emits this event for each affected lifecycle transition, looking up the prior status from the row's history (via event_log scan) or accepting it as a payload field.
+
+**Production code change:** in `chat/web/turns.py::post_turn` (and `chat/services/regenerate.py`), when emitting `event_started`/`event_completed`/`event_cancelled`, populate `triggered_by_assistant_turn_id: <id>` in the payload. Forward-only — older code doesn't need updating.
+
+**Tests:** 3 minimum.
+
+1. `test_regenerate_rolls_back_event_started_from_superseded_turn` — seed an event; play a turn that starts it; regenerate; assert `event_status_reverted` event landed with `prior_status="planned"` and the events row is back to "planned".
+2. `test_regenerate_rolls_back_event_completed_to_active` — same but completed → active rollback.
+3. `test_regenerate_skips_events_without_back_reference` — older events without `triggered_by_assistant_turn_id` are not rolled back (debug log). Pin the backward-compat behavior.
+
+**Commits:**
+- `feat: lifecycle events carry triggered_by_assistant_turn_id back-reference (T114.1)`
+- `feat: event_status_reverted event kind + projector handler (T114.2)`
+- `feat: regenerate rolls back lifecycle transitions on supersede (T114.3)`

+## Wave 8 — sqlite-vec swap (single, ENVIRONMENTAL)
+
+### Task 115: sqlite-vec swap (optional)
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `chat/db/migrations/0015_vec0_virtual_tables.sql`
+- Modify: `chat/db/connection.py` (load extension on every connection)
+- Modify: `chat/services/vector_search.py` (rewrite to use vec0 MATCH instead of pure-Python cosine)
+- Modify: `chat/state/embeddings.py` (writer needs to populate vec0 table)
+- Modify: `pyproject.toml` (add `sqlite-vec` dependency)
+
+**Pre-flight:**
+
+This task REQUIRES one of:
+- Python rebuilt with `--enable-loadable-sqlite-extensions` (pyenv reinstall).
+- `apsw` migration of `chat/db/connection.py`.
+
+If neither is feasible at the time of execution: SKIP THIS TASK and document the deferral in T118 docs sweep. The other 13 Phase 4.5 tasks ship without it.
+
+**Spec:**
+
+1. **Migration** `0015_vec0_virtual_tables.sql`:
+   ```sql
+   CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE embeddings_vec USING vec0(
+       memory_id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,
+       embedding FLOAT[384]
+   );
+   -- Backfill from existing JSON embeddings table.
+   INSERT INTO embeddings_vec (memory_id, embedding)
+   SELECT memory_id, vec_f32(vector_json) FROM embeddings;
+   ```
+
+2. **`chat/db/connection.py`** loads `sqlite_vec` extension on every connection:
+   ```python
+   import sqlite_vec
+   def open_db(...):
+       conn = sqlite3.connect(...)
+       conn.enable_load_extension(True)
+       sqlite_vec.load(conn)
+       conn.enable_load_extension(False)
+       ...
+   ```
+
+3. **Rewrite `vector_search.py`** to use `embeddings_vec MATCH ?` syntax with `k=?` clause:
+   ```sql
+   SELECT m.id, m.pov_summary, m.significance, e.distance
+   FROM embeddings_vec e
+   JOIN memories m ON m.id = e.memory_id
+   WHERE e.embedding MATCH ? AND k = ?
+     AND m.owner_id = ?
+     AND m.witness_<role> = 1
+   ORDER BY e.distance ASC
+   LIMIT ?
+   ```
+
+4. **HNSW note**: vec0 supports both flat (default) and HNSW indexes. T115 ships flat (sufficient for < few thousand memories). Document HNSW upgrade path in CLAUDE.md if memory counts ever grow past pure-Python feasibility.
+
+5. **Old `embeddings` JSON table**: keep alongside `embeddings_vec` (data redundancy is fine; the JSON table is the source of truth and `embeddings_vec` is the index). Backfill on migration. Keep the `embedding_indexed` projector populating both.
+
+**Tests:** rewrite `tests/test_vector_search.py` to expect new behavior. Same observable contract — only implementation changes. All 5 existing tests should pass post-swap.
+
+**Commit:** `feat: sqlite-vec swap (vec0 virtual tables + MATCH-based search) (T115)`.

+
+## Wave 9 — Polish (parallel, 3 tasks)
+
+### Task 116: Structured test-fixture builder
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `tests/fixtures.py` (or extend `tests/conftest.py`)
+- Modify: existing test files that use brittle canned-queue arrays (selectively)
+
+**Spec:**
+
+Phase 3 carry-over. Tests across `test_turn_flow.py`, `test_meanwhile_turn_flow.py`, `test_phase3_integration.py`, `test_phase4_integration.py` use positional canned-response arrays for `MockLLMClient`. Adding a new classifier call to a code path requires updating canned arrays in many tests.
+
+**Solution:** structured fixture builder that lets tests declare their classifier expectations by name, not position:
+
+```python
+# tests/fixtures.py
+class CannedQueue:
+    def __init__(self):
+        self._queue = []
+    def parse_turn(self, **fields): ...
+    def state_update(self, **fields): ...
+    def detect_scene_close(self, should_close: bool): ...
+    def detect_event_transitions(self, transitions: list[dict]): ...
+    def summarize_scene(self, summary: str, **fields): ...
+    def detect_threads(self, candidates: list[dict]): ...
+    # ... one method per classifier service
+    def build(self) -> list[str]:
+        return [json.dumps(item) for item in self._queue]
+```
+
+Usage:
+
+```python
+def test_post_turn_with_event_transition(...):
+    canned = (
+        CannedQueue()
+            .parse_turn(intent="narrative")
+            .narrative("BotA speaks.")  # narrative is a stream, but for simplicity treat it like a canned response
+            .state_update(affinity_delta=0, trust_delta=0)
+            .state_update(affinity_delta=0, trust_delta=0)
+            .detect_event_transitions([{"event_id": "evt_1", "new_status": "completed"}])
+            .detect_scene_close(should_close=False)
+            .build()
+    )
+    mock = MockLLMClient(canned=canned)
+    # ...
+```
+
+**Migration scope:** don't migrate ALL existing tests at once — that's a separate massive refactor. Instead, ship the fixture builder + migrate 2-3 representative tests as proof of concept. Document the migration path in the fixture's docstring.
+
+**Tests:** the fixture builder itself doesn't need extensive testing — it's just a builder. Add 1-2 sanity tests that the JSON output matches expected shapes.
+
+**Commit:** `test: structured CannedQueue fixture builder for classifier mocks (T116)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 117: Phase 4.5 cross-feature integration tests
+
+**Files:**
+- Create: `tests/test_phase45_integration.py`
+
+**Spec:**
+
+End-to-end multi-feature flows specific to Phase 4.5 changes. 5 tests minimum.
+
+1. **Real embedding swap + retrieval** — configure `embedding_model="bge-small-en-v1.5"` (mocked); write a memory; backfill or wait for worker; assert vector search returns the memory via `client.embed`-derived vector (not pseudo).
+
+2. **Branching read-side filter end-to-end** — create a branch from turn 5; switch; play 3 turns on the branch; switch back to main; assert main's recent dialogue is missing the branch turns (read filter respects active branch's head).
+
+3. **Lifecycle rollback** — start an event via a turn; regenerate that turn; assert lifecycle reverted (event back to "planned").
+
+4. **Search deep-link** — write memories; search; click a result; verify the chat page renders with the right turn anchored (assert via TestClient response — either the browser anchor OR a server-side scroll-to-anchor mechanism).
+
+5. **Bulk significance re-rate end-to-end** — seed 5 memories at significance 0; bulk re-rate via drawer; verify significance histogram updates.
+
+**Commit:** `test: phase 4.5 cross-feature integration coverage (T117)`.
+
+---
+
+### Task 118: Phase 4.5 documentation update
+
+**Files:**
+- Modify: `CLAUDE.md`
+- Modify: `docs/plans/2026-04-26-v1-requirements-design.md` (annotate §13 Phase 4 entries — though they're already shipped per Phase 4 T102)
+
+**Spec:**
+
+Mirror the Phase 3.5 / 2.5 status sections. Document:
+
+- All shipped items per task (T103–T117).
+- Empty out the Phase 4.5 / 5 backlog (replace with single "All items shipped" line).
+- Add new "Phase 5 backlog" section if any Phase 4.5 reviews surfaced new follow-ups.
+
+**Phase 5 backlog candidates** (default, if no new follow-ups discovered):
+
+- Vector index optimization (HNSW) when memory counts grow past flat-index feasibility.
+- Branch-isolated event_log (each branch has its own physical event_log range vs the current shared id space + head filter).
+- Embedding model swap migration tooling — when changing models, need to re-embed everything; T112 added `--re-embed-all` but 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.
+- Avatars / portraits (multimodality) — deferred indefinitely per design §14.
+
+**Commit:** `docs: phase 4.5 status, prune backlog, capture phase 5 candidates (T118)`.
+
+---
+
+## Wrap-up
+
+After Wave 9 lands:
+
+1. **Run full suite** on `phase-4.5`: should be ~430+ tests passing (413 from Phase 4 + ~20 new across Phase 4.5).
+2. **Manual smoke** (recommended before opening the PR):
+   - Configure `embedding_model="bge-small-en-v1.5"` (or whatever real model is chosen); restart server; play a turn; verify `embedding_indexed` events use the real model and search returns semantically-relevant memories.
+   - Create a branch, switch, play turns, switch back — verify main's history is unaffected.
+   - Plan an event, complete it via a turn, regenerate that turn — verify event reverts to "planned".
+   - Use cross-chat search; click a result; verify it lands on the right turn in the chat page.
+   - Bulk re-rate a chat's significance distribution.
+3. **Push `phase-4.5`** to gitea.
+4. **Open PR** `phase-4.5 → main`.
+
+---
+
+## Notes for the controller running this plan
+
+- **T115 (sqlite-vec swap)** is environmental. If pre-flight fails (no rebuilt Python, no apsw), defer to Phase 5 and ship Phase 4.5 with 13 tasks. T118 docs sweep should note the deferral.
+- **T112 (real embedding swap)** assumes Featherless or similar exposes an `/v1/embeddings` endpoint. If not available, document the gap and ship the Protocol + Mock impl only (Featherless impl deferred). The pseudo path remains the default in that case — same as Phase 4.
+- **T113 (branching read-side filter)** is the riskiest task. Cross-cutting. Land it on a quiet branch, test thoroughly. If integration tests break in unexpected ways, bisect the affected reader and add coverage.
+- **After each parallel wave**, run a code-review subagent. Combined spec+quality acceptable for trivial tasks (T103–T108); separate spec + quality reviewers for big tasks (T112, T113, T114, T115).
+- **Token-spend rough estimate**: Phase 4.5 should be ~50% the size of Phase 4 (similar number of tasks, mostly smaller). Big tasks (T112, T113, T114) bring the per-task spend up but parallelism in Wave 1 + Wave 9 brings the wall-clock down.
+- **DO NOT break existing v1/v2/v3/v3.5/v4 surface contracts.** Every test file that was green at the start of Phase 4.5 must stay green at the end. The cross-feature integration tests (`tests/test_phase4_integration.py`, `tests/test_phase3_integration.py`) are particularly load-bearing.

+"""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.

+   (T113) — seed 5 turns on main, branch from turn 5, play 3 turns
+   on the branch, switch back to main, assert

+"""Phase 4 cross-feature integration tests (T97 follow-up + T101).
+
+Cross-feature flows for the Phase 4 retrieval + branching + drawer
+features. Each test drives multiple Phase 4 surfaces end-to-end and
+asserts both event_log and projected-state outcomes.
+
+Test inventory:
+
+* ``test_post_turn_embeddings_indexed_via_worker_hook`` (T97.5) —
+  pins the production turn route's ``app=request.app`` plumbing so
+  the embedding worker actually receives jobs.
+
+T101 additions (the "Phase 4 cross-feature integration" suite):
+
+1. ``test_vector_retrieval_feedback_loop`` — write a memory, drain
+   the embedding worker, assert the vector path retrieves it.
+2. ``test_branch_diverge_main_intact`` — create a branch from a
+   mid-log turn, switch, append more events, switch back and assert
+   the original log past the branch point is still present (Phase 4
+   branching is metadata-only — no read-side filter yet).
+3. ``test_surgical_delete_truncates_log_and_writes_snapshot`` —
+   compute impact, confirm via the drawer route, assert the log was
+   truncated and a pre-rewind snapshot landed on disk.
+4. ``test_hide_then_unhide_round_trip_through_read_recent_dialogue``
+   — flip ``hidden`` via the drawer route both directions and assert
+   ``read_recent_dialogue`` honours the flag in real time.
+5. ``test_cross_chat_search_surfaces_memories_in_three_chats`` —
+   write memories in 3 chats, hit ``/search?q=...`` and assert all
+   three appear.
+
+The T97.5 test monkeypatches ``app.state.embedding_worker.enqueue`` to
+record jobs (rather than draining the worker) because the bug it pins
+is "did the call site pass ``app`` at all". T101 test 1 takes the
+opposite tack: it drives the worker for real to verify the entire
+write -> index -> retrieve loop.

+
+    Why this test does NOT use the TestClient fixture: the live

+    HTTP route and the live app worker; this test pins the

+
+    Cross-feature gaps this test catches:

+    * ``embeddings`` projector handler is not registered (e.g.
