Joakim Persson 29e660e18f feeders: stage beside the palace, not in ~/.cache; document Phase 1 exposure
Staging default moves out of ~/.cache to <palace-root>/pi-stage (pi) and
<palace-root>/opencode-stage (opencode), resolved with mempalace's own
palace-path precedence ($MEMPALACE_PALACE_PATH -> $MEMPAL_PALACE_PATH ->
~/.mempalace/config.json -> ~/.mempalace/palace), then dirname.

Why: the convos miner keys dedup on the *staged* path, so a wiped stage plus a
sync scoped to include it prunes the drawers mined from those sources --
deleting memories, not a cache. Under ~/.cache that state was reachable by
anything treating a cache as disposable. Staging inside the palace makes the
coupling structural: the stage cannot be wiped without touching the palace
itself. Overrides ($MEMPALACE_PI_STAGE / $MEMPALACE_SESSION_STAGE, --stage) are
unchanged. Note the old default had never been created on any host, so this
closed a latent hazard, not a live one.

Measured, and the docs now claim only this much: sync prunes only within the
scope it is given -- wing-only, 1299 scanned / 1299 out of scope / 0 removed;
scoped at the palace root, 651 kept / 648 out of scope. The previous blanket
"sync prunes every drawer" wording overstated it, which is a liability: the next
reader disproves the overstatement and discards the real constraint with it.

Also in this change:
- cron log dir ~/.cache/mempalace-session -> ~/.cache/mempalace-logs. The stage
  left that namespace, so the old name now read as "the stage".
- AGENTS.md: the convos miner *does* check mtime (verified against upstream
  convo_miner.py); the previous "no mtime check" claim was wrong.
- smoke-test assertions use `mktemp -d` for --sessions-dir. One pointed at /tmp,
  which still held earlier synthetic transcripts, so a --dry-run exported a fake
  session into the real stage: --dry-run skips the mine, not the export.

docs/phase-1-exposure-runbook.md -- the newt/DNS/auth step that RFC 001 and the
synlig runbook leave open (runbook section 4, items 2 and 5). Port 8765 at /mcp,
newt targets 172.17.0.1, and the authentication is the single shared bearer
token (RFC 6.2, decided 2026-08-09) rather than per-device proxy users. The
latter cannot work today: mempalace validates exactly one token, and Pangolin's
SSO/PIN/password are browser-shaped while every client here is a headless
JSON-RPC POST -- enabling that protection breaks the clients it protects. The
per-device axis that *does* exist is the feeder's SSH key + per-device inbox.

New finding recorded there: a loopback bind does not merely 403 behind a tunnel
(already known, runbook 2.4) -- it also silently starts the server with no token
at all, because auto-minting is gated on the bind being non-loopback.

extensions/pi/README.md: the HTTP transport IS authenticated as of mempalace
3.6.0; the "sessionless and unauthenticated" note dated from the v1.3.0 era.
Closes the RFC section 8 Phase-0 hygiene item.

# mempalace-pi-session — mine pi coding-agent session history into MemPalace
#
# Pi persists every session (verbatim user/assistant turns + tool calls + tool
# results) as newline-delimited JSONL under ~/.pi/agent/sessions/. Pi has no
# upstream MemPalace integration and mempalace-toolkit's existing wrapper
# (`mempalace-session`) only handles opencode's SQLite DB, so pi sessions are
# currently invisible to the palace.
#
# Strategy (mirrors mempalace-session):
# 1. Walk ~/.pi/agent/sessions/**/*.jsonl and export each qualifying session
# to a Claude Code JSONL file (format the mempalace normalizer speaks).
# 2. Stage exports under $MEMPALACE_PI_STAGE/<wing> (default
# <palace-root>/pi-stage/<wing> — alongside the palace it feeds).
# 3. Run `mempalace mine --mode convos` against the staging dir.
#
# TWO PHASES (--prepare), because the palace is single-writer
# mempalace refuses a CLI mine while another process holds the palace:
# "palace ... is held by PID <n> (mempalace-mcp); wait for it to finish"
# A live pi session ALWAYS has a holder — the mempalace extension's own
# mempalace-mcp. So an unattended CLI mine only works when no session is
# live (e.g. a container-start catch-up); during a session the mine must be
# performed by the process that already holds the palace. Hence:
#
# --prepare export + stage (+ rsync in remote mode) and print
# MINE_SOURCE=<path>, without ever opening the palace.
# (default) the above, then mine it ourselves. Contention is treated as
# success-with-nothing-to-do, not failure: the holder's own
# extension will mine what we staged.
#
# The pi mempalace extension drives exactly this: it runs --prepare on
# session_shutdown and on a debounced agent_settled, then calls
# mempalace_mine on MINE_SOURCE through its existing MCP client.
#
# TRANSPORTS (--mode, default auto)
# local Mine into the local palace with the mempalace CLI.
# remote $MEMPALACE_REMOTE_URL is set, so the palace lives on another host.
# There is no remote-palace CLI — only the HTTP MCP server — and
# mempalace_mine expands its source path in the SERVER process, so
# the server cannot see this machine's staged exports. We therefore
# rsync the stage into a per-device inbox on the palace host and ask
# the server to mine its own local path. Requires
# MEMPALACE_PI_SSH_TARGET (where to rsync) and
# MEMPALACE_PI_REMOTE_PATH (what that inbox is called server-side).
#
# Labelling: every exported transcript begins with a synthetic header
# [session: <title> | <cwd> | <YYYY-MM-DD> | source: pi]
# so post-mine search results are self-identifying (pi vs opencode vs other).
#
# Dedup: mempalace convos mode keys on source_file (absolute staging path).
# Staging paths are deterministic per pi session UUID, and the export copies
# the source session's mtime onto the staged file, so re-runs are idempotent
# until session content actually changes. A GROWN session is purged and
# refiled for that source_file by the miner, so re-feeding a live session
# refreshes its drawers instead of duplicating them.
#
# Staging location: source_file dedup keys on the staged path, so if the stage
# is wiped the palace is left with drawers whose source files look deleted.
# `mempalace sync` prunes exactly those — but only within the scope it is
# given. Measured on this layout: scoped at the palace root the staged sources
# are in scope (kept 651), while a wing-only sync reports them out_of_scope and
# leaves them alone. So the data loss is conditional on how sync is invoked,
# which is far too thin a margin to rely on.
#
# The stage therefore defaults NEXT TO THE PALACE (<palace-root>/pi-stage,
# resolved the way mempalace itself resolves the palace: $MEMPALACE_PALACE_PATH
# → $MEMPAL_PALACE_PATH → ~/.mempalace/config.json → ~/.mempalace/palace).
#
# That makes the invariant structural rather than documented: the stage and the
# dedup keys that reference it share one lifetime, so the dangerous state —
# palace survives, stage does not — can no longer be reached by wiping
# something that merely looks disposable. A cache dir (the obvious choice, and
# the old default) is exactly wrong here: it persists just long enough to look
# correct, then takes the memories with it. Override with MEMPALACE_PI_STAGE
# only if the target is at least as durable as the palace.
#
# In remote mode the local stage is only a shipping buffer — dedup lives on the
# server, keyed by the server-side inbox path — so its durability is moot there.
#
# Session filter: two gates, both required.
# 1. --min-messages <N> user+assistant turns (default 4). Tool loops inflate
# assistant turns fast in pi, so a real working session clears this
# easily; a single abandoned prompt does not.
# 2. --min-assistant-chars <N> characters of assistant *text* (default 1000),
# excluding tool results. Assistant volume, not total volume: pi expands
# skills/context into the user prompt, so an abandoned session can carry a
# 13k-char "user" message answered with "Ready. What would you like to
# work on?" — total size says substantial, assistant size correctly says
# nothing happened.

mempalace-pi-session — mine pi coding-agent session history into MemPalace
Usage:
mempalace-pi-session [options]
Options:
--wing <name> Target wing (default: wing_conversations)
--session <prefix> Export one session only (match on UUID prefix)
--since <YYYY-MM-DD> Only sessions last modified on/after this date
--min-messages <N> Skip sessions with fewer than N user+assistant
turns (default: 4)
--min-assistant-chars <N>
Skip sessions with fewer than N characters of
assistant text, tool results excluded (default: 1000).
Catches abandoned sessions whose bulk is injected
skill/context text in the user prompt.
--agent <name> Agent name recorded on drawers (default: $USER)
--sessions-dir <path> Path to pi sessions dir (default: $PI_SESSIONS_DIR
or ~/.pi/agent/sessions)
--stage <path> Staging root (default: $MEMPALACE_PI_STAGE, else
<palace-root>/pi-stage — next to the palace, so the
stage cannot be wiped independently of the dedup keys
that point at it). Exports go in <root>/<wing>.
See "Staging location" in the header before moving it.
--mode <m> auto|local|remote (default: auto — remote when
$MEMPALACE_REMOTE_URL is set)
--prepare Export + stage (+ rsync in remote mode), print
MINE_SOURCE=<path>, and stop without opening the
palace. For callers that will do the mine themselves
through a live MCP connection.
--reason <label> Label this run in its output (e.g. shutdown, tick,
container-start). Useful when triggers log to a file.
--dry-run Export + list; do not mine into palace. Each session
is tagged [NEW] or [SKIP] based on whether its
source_file is already in the palace.
--repair Run `mempalace repair` after mining (opt-in).
WARNING: repair does a destructive in-place HNSW
rebuild. If it races a live MCP connection or
crashes mid-rebuild, it can wipe the collection.
Only pass this from a quiet, interactive context.
Not safe for unattended cron/launchd schedules.
--no-repair (Deprecated; no-repair is now the default.)
-h, --help Show this help
Idempotency:
Re-running on the same corpus is safe. The export step writes every
qualifying session to the cache; the mine step dedups by source_file so
already-filed sessions are skipped without re-embedding.
Transcript shape per session:
- Synthetic header as first user turn:
[session: <title> | <cwd> | <YYYY-MM-DD> | source: pi]
- User/assistant messages extracted from pi JSONL `message` entries
- Assistant toolCall blocks → Claude Code `tool_use` blocks
- `toolResult` role messages → `tool_result` blocks (folded back into
the assistant turn by the normalizer)
- `bashExecution`, `custom(display=true)`, `branchSummary`,
`compactionSummary` → rendered as text annotations
- `thinking` content blocks → dropped (noise)
- Image content blocks → dropped (palace embeds text only)
Dedup:
- source_file = absolute staging path (deterministic per pi session UUID)
- Re-runs skip unchanged sessions; a GROWN session (mtime changed) has its
old drawers purged and is refiled, so re-feeding a live session refreshes
rather than duplicates.
- To force re-mining, delete the staging dir:
rm -rf <palace-root>/pi-stage/<wing>/
That forces a refile — but do NOT run `mempalace sync` while the stage is
missing, or the drawers mined from it get pruned instead.
Rationale:
Two complementary paths feed the palace from pi, and they cover different
failure modes:
- The pi mempalace bridge extension (extensions/pi/mempalace.ts) drives
this script with --prepare on session_shutdown and on a debounced
agent_settled, then mines through its own live MCP connection. That is
the primary path: it needs no scheduling and it is the only way to write
while a session holds the palace.
- Running this script directly is the batch/recovery path: a
container-start or host-level catch-up that picks up transcripts nothing
mined at the time — notably after a SIGKILL, where no pi handler runs at
all. It reads the durable on-disk JSONL, so it does not care whether the
session that produced it exited cleanly.
