fix(dreaming): advance evidence cursor only by reviewed text

[aaf2tbz]

Summary

Finalization advanced a source's evidence cursor for every excerpt search_evidence delivered unless the runbook named the source in deferredEvidence (recordDreamingEvidenceConsumptionInTx). That is how pass 372d1488 read one page, stopped, and still left five unreviewed source revisions at delivered_offset == source_length. The same pass also stalled on the import nudge source:import:..., which the agent's evidence tools cannot resolve.

This PR implements the core of the binding design in the #2094 maintainer comment, "the evidence cursor advances only by reviewed text":

• review_evidence (new direct tool). It takes { agentId, items: [{ sourceRef, contentOffset, through? }] }. Each item names an excerpt delivered by search_evidence in this pass and scope. If through is omitted, the whole excerpt counts as reviewed; otherwise review ends where the first occurrence of the exact through quote ends. The daemon converts the item to an offset against the audited delivery, so the agent never counts characters. A call with any invalid item is rejected as a whole, and each rejected item gets a code: EXCERPT_NOT_DELIVERED, SCOPE_MISMATCH, QUOTE_NOT_IN_EXCERPT, or SOURCE_CHANGED. Calls are audited in dreaming_tool_calls like search_evidence.
• Automatic floor. A successful apply_ontology_ops citation counts as reviewed through the cited quote within the excerpt delivered this pass. This reuses the filedSources work in failedOperationEvidence.
• Finalization. The cursor moves to the contiguous extension of the stored cursor over the acknowledged and floor ranges, computed with extendDeliveredOffset. Delivered text that is never acknowledged contributes nothing. These are unchanged: deferredEvidence, withholding after failed operations, reviewedExcludedEvidence (still terminal and still requires full delivery), and failed or timed-out passes recording nothing.
• Overlap at delivery. When the queue re-delivers a source that was partly reviewed in an earlier pass, it starts 200 characters (10% of the 2,000-character excerpt) before the stored cursor. The start is clamped at 0 and moved back to the nearest sentence or paragraph start using the existing fragment boundary rule. The item reports reviewedChars. The overlap never counts as new progress, and the stored cursor stays the exact reviewed end.
• Stalled sources. A queue-delivered revision that gets no progress in a successful pass increments stalled_passes. A pass that defers the source, or withholds its progress because a write in its scope failed without filing it, is neutral: it neither increments nor resets the count. At 3 it gets an evidence_requeue attention record (reason: evidence-stalled), leaves the continuation-first queue, and sorts behind non-stalled sources in the fresh queue. The record does not schedule a pass by itself; the scheduler's attention trigger ignores it, and the source is still reached by the backlog triggers. Progress resets the count and resolves the record, and so does excluding the revision as reviewed.
• Import attention. source:<importSourceId> is removed from the agent-facing <pending_attention> and from attention_list. Finalization resolves it once every member transcript or artifact (found through source_id) is reviewed, excluded as reviewed, or has a cursor at its stored source_length. The check runs inside the finalize write transaction, so it is bounded. A partial cursor answers "pending" without rendering anything. Fully consumed and reviewed members are filtered out in SQL. Only members that have never been delivered are rendered, in key order, and the check stops at the first non-empty one. Each finalization shares a budget of 8 renders. Members that render empty are remembered in a per-row resume key, and checked rows rotate behind unchecked ones, so drained rows behind busy ones still get resolved. The nudge still schedules a pass, but only until a Dreaming pass for that agent starts after it: the import raiser stamps raisedAt in the nudge details on every committed batch, and the scheduler's attention trigger skips a source: nudge whose raisedAt (or created_at for older rows) is earlier than the agent's latest pass start. A later batch re-arms it. Without this, one unacknowledged member kept the nudge pending and started a scheduled pass at every 5-minute check.
• Schema. Migration 169 adds cursor_basis TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT 'delivery' and stalled_passes. Existing rows keep their offsets and read as 'delivery'. New writes use 'review'.

Refs #2094. This PR covers only part of the issue; see Notes for what remains.

Changes

• platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-evidence-consumption.ts:
  • reviewDreamingEvidenceInDb validates acknowledgements against this pass's persisted deliveries.
  • recordDreamingEvidenceConsumptionInTx now advances the cursor only by acknowledged and cited ranges, and tracks stalls.
  • evidenceCursorForSource added.
  • Continuations exclude stalled revisions, which are served from the fresh scan instead.
  • resolveImportedSourceAttentionInTx added. It uses the new early-exit probeSourceEvidenceDrain, which also backs sourceHasEligibleUnconsumedEvidence (source stats) in place of the old full-count countEligibleUnconsumedEvidenceForSource.
  • failedOperationEvidence also returns the citations of successful operations.
  • Deferred or withheld sources do not count toward a stall.
  • importedSourceAttentionUpsert builds the import nudge upsert (with raisedAt), and SEEN_IMPORTED_SOURCE_ATTENTION_SQL is the shared trigger fragment.
• platform/daemon/src/daemon.ts: the transcript import worker raises its nudge through importedSourceAttentionUpsert.
• platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-capabilities.ts:
  • New review_evidence capability.
  • The queue drain resumes with overlap, reports reviewedChars, and moves stalled fresh sources behind the others.
  • search_evidence description updated.
• platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-evidence.ts: the boundary test is extracted from nextDreamingEvidenceFragment without a behavior change, and dreamingEvidenceResumeStart is added.
• platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming.ts:
  • Finalize passes the filed citations and resolves import attention.
  • The scheduler's attention trigger ignores evidence-stalled records and source: import nudges that a later-started pass has already seen (SEEN_IMPORTED_SOURCE_ATTENTION_SQL).
  • Both content-capable prompts add "then call review_evidence for that page" to the queue step.
  • The codemode note lists review_evidence as a direct tool.
  • Pending attention is agent-facing.
• platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-attention.ts: an agentFacing option filters out source: import nudges.
• platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-evidence-reviews.ts: recording a reviewed exclusion resolves that source's stall record.
• platform/daemon/src/episodic-sources.ts: the delivery queue's consumed/reviewed SQL filter now matches imported transcripts by their import source id and content hash, the same identity their cursor rows are written with. Before, a fully reviewed imported transcript was never filtered out, so with the resume overlap every later pass re-delivered its reviewed tail (found in live verification below).
• platform/daemon/src/db-owner-{protocol,worker,runtime}.ts: new read request dreaming_evidence_review.
• platform/core/src/migrations/169-dreaming-evidence-review-cursor.ts and the registry: new migration.
• Docs:
  • web/docs/src/content/docs/pipeline/extraction-decisions.md documents review_evidence and the cursor rule.
  • web/docs/src/content/docs/sources.md documents how the import nudge is resolved.
• scripts/event-loop-contract-baseline.json and docs/event-loop-contract-audit.md regenerated for the shifted lines.

Migration Notes (if applicable)

• Migration is idempotent: it checks for each column before adding it.
• Rollback / compatibility note included in PR description: the columns are additive. Existing cursors are not rewritten, and rows that are never advanced again keep cursor_basis = 'delivery' so a later recovery step can find them.

Testing

• bun test passes for the touched areas:
  • src/pipeline/ (all files), episodic-sources, imported-source-lifecycle, restore-live-fixture, routes/sources-routes, routes/pipeline-routes, src/mcp, db-owner*, the native Dreaming smoke tests, the memorybench Dreaming gate, and the core migration tests.
  • The run had 9 failures, all in db-owner-client, db-owner-maintenance (FTS crash recovery), and pipeline/provider (ACPX). The same tests fail on unmodified main on this machine.
• bun run typecheck passes (pre-commit workspace typecheck).
• bun run lint passes: biome check reports no new findings on the changed files, and comments:check is current.
• Tested against running daemon
• N/A

Live verification. I ran real daemons from source with an isolated SIGNET_PATH/HOME, and a scripted OpenAI-compatible stub as the Pi executor's openai-compatible target. The stub drives each Dreaming pass through real tool calls. Transcripts came in through the real /api/sources/imports route (3 conversations, one of 24,891 chars), plus one memory from /api/memory/remember. Passes were triggered with POST /api/dream/trigger.

• Main (ea8e8b569), the P1: Dreaming cannot resolve imported-source attention, exits early, and consumes unreviewed evidence #2094 bug: pass 1 read both queue pages and acknowledged nothing. All four sources were left at delivered_offset == source_length, and pass 2's queue returned items: []. The source:import:... nudge showed up in <pending_attention> and in attention_list.
• PR, pass 1: the pass read 2 queue pages (the memory, the long transcript in two excerpts, and two short transcripts) and called review_evidence for the long transcript's first excerpt only. Only that row moved (15918/24891, cursor_basis='review'). The excerpt delivered after it in the same pass did not move the cursor. The other three stayed at 0 with stalled_passes=1. The import nudge was absent from the prompt and from attention_list (items: []), and it stayed pending.
• PR, pass 2: the queue served the continuation first, at contentOffset 15715 with reviewedChars 203. A through quote advanced the second transcript exactly to the end of the quote (669). A cited create_entity floored the third transcript at the end of its quote (84), with no review_evidence call.
• PR, pass 3: those two resumed with reviewedChars 302 and 84, and were reviewed. The memory went unreviewed a third time: it reached stalled_passes=3 and got evidence_requeue / evidence-stalled attention. All three transcripts were now reviewed, so the import nudge was resolved by that pass.
• Scheduler: at the next scheduler check, the only pending record was the stall record, and the scheduler stayed idle and started no pass. An earlier check did start a hygiene pass, but that pass was for a hygiene record raised on the test entity.
• Demotion: a second import added an older transcript. The next queue page served it before the newer, stalled memory. Reviewing the memory reset its count and resolved the stall record, and the second import's nudge resolved in the same pass.
• Finalize timing: with a 400-transcript import pending, the pass reviewed one page. Finalize finished within about 70 ms of the agent's last turn (whole pass 276 ms), /health/live stayed at 1 ms or less, and the import nudge stayed pending as expected.
• Rejections: review_evidence returned EXCERPT_NOT_DELIVERED and QUOTE_NOT_IN_EXCERPT live.
• Upgrade: I started main on a workspace (schema 168, delivery-basis rows), then the PR on the same workspace. Migration 169 applied, and all old rows read cursor_basis='delivery' with their offsets unchanged. The next PR pass resolved the old import nudge, because every member's cursor was at its length.
• Defect found and fixed in 5f95f104b: on that upgraded workspace, the PR's queue re-delivered a 231–249 char, fully reviewedChars tail of every finished imported transcript, on every pass. After the fix, the same workspace has nothing queued, and the pass short-circuits with "No new episodic evidence or semantic attention to process".
• Logs: no errors on either daemon. The only warnings were the known "Dashboard not found" and "synthesis worker exited with code 1", plus shutdown-time "Workspace migration is draining" warnings, which main shows too.

New tests in platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming.test.ts, all of which fail on main:

• Three sources are delivered and the agent reviews one. Only that one advances, and the other two are re-delivered on the next pass. This reproduces the 372d1488 shape.
• A through acknowledgement advances exactly to the end of the quote. The next pass resumes 200–400 characters back at a sentence start, with reviewedChars. Re-reading the overlap without acknowledging it records no progress.
• EXCERPT_NOT_DELIVERED, SCOPE_MISMATCH, and QUOTE_NOT_IN_EXCERPT each reject the whole call, and nothing is recorded. SOURCE_CHANGED is returned when the source is edited between delivery and acknowledgement.
• A successful citation floors the cursor at the end of the quote.
• A continuation that stalls for 3 passes gets evidence-stalled attention and stops leading the queue. Reviewing it later resolves the attention and resets the count.
• A fresh source is served before a stalled continuation, and the stalled continuation is still reached on the next page with reviewedChars.
• A pending stall record alone does not trigger a scheduled pass, and excluding the stalled source as reviewed resolves it.
• A pass that defers a stalled continuation, and a pass whose uncited write fails, leave its stall count unchanged; the next plain pass still counts.
• A fresh import nudge triggers a pass. After a pass runs and leaves it pending, the next check does not trigger on attention. A new batch for the same source triggers again.
• Import attention is hidden from the prompt and attention_list. It stays pending after one of two member transcripts is reviewed, and resolves in the pass that excludes the second.
• The drain probe stops at the first unconsumed member: 1 render for a 40-transcript import, and 0 renders when a stored partial cursor exists.
• A drained import row queued behind 20 still-pending rows is resolved on the next finalization. Under the old ORDER BY created_at LIMIT 20 it was never reached.
• A source whose 26 members all render empty is resolved over 4 finalizations at no more than 8 renders each, resuming from the stored key.
• 52 fully reviewed imported transcripts stay out of the delivery queue on the next pass, so an older unread imported transcript is the only item served.

Existing tests that relied on delivery advancing the cursor now acknowledge their pages with review_evidence. They assert progress with delivered_offset > 0, because unprogressed queue deliveries now leave a stall row at offset 0. Two expected offsets change from 16_000 to 15_800 because of the overlap.

Notes

Not in this PR (still open under #2094):

• Recovery. Rows with cursor_basis = 'delivery' that were advanced by a pass with zero successful operations and no reviewed exclusion are not requeued yet. The existing exclusion requeue (requeue_requested_at) does not by itself make the delivery queue re-serve a fully consumed row; only the reviewed-exclusion requeue deletes the consumption row. That flow needs its own small design decision, so it belongs in a follow-up.
• Fixed-corpus agent evaluation and the compiled runtime test (import → pass → partial review → overlap → group resolution). The scripted-agent tests above exercise the same daemon path in-process, but no live model or compiled binary was run.

Decisions I made where the design left room:

• The stall count is the number of successful passes in which the revision was delivered by the queue without progress, excluding passes that deferred it or withheld its progress after a failed write. Progress resets it. It is not a strict "consecutive passes" window, and lookups by query or sourceRef do not count.
• To track stalls, a stalled revision with no prior progress gets a row at offset 0. Such a row is neither complete nor a continuation, so queue membership and >= source_length checks are unchanged.
• Any cursor advance writes cursor_basis = 'review', even on a row that was first advanced under the delivery rule. This follows "new writes use 'review'".
• The stall attention reuses the evidence_requeue kind with details.reason = "evidence-stalled", because dreaming_attention.kind has a CHECK constraint. It does not overwrite an unresolved requeue record from another reason.
• Stalled sources sort last within the fresh queue's 51-source scan window, not across the whole corpus. If more than 51 of the newest unreviewed sources are all stalled, older non-stalled sources wait until those are fully served in a pass.
• Unacknowledged text stays in the backlog, so an agent that never calls review_evidence keeps the token-threshold and max-interval triggers firing, and an import's source: nudge stays pending. That nudge schedules a pass only until a pass starts after it, so it does not drive a pass every check. Stall records no longer add a trigger of their own, but there is no no-progress backoff yet.
• A through quote is trimmed before matching, as apply_ontology_ops trims its quotes.

Overlap with open PRs: #2106 (the scheduler failure gate) and #2107 (UTC failure timestamps) edit dreaming.ts in other functions, and #2106 also touches scripts/event-loop-contract-baseline.json. Whichever merges second will need that baseline regenerated.

Merge order: merge after #2115. This PR advances a cursor only from review_evidence calls and citations recorded against the pass. On current main, acpx-routed passes reach Dreaming tools through /api/dream/tools/*, which records no pass tool calls (#2102). Without #2115, acpx passes could never acknowledge a delivery, and their sources would be re-delivered every pass. #2115 binds those calls to the running pass and records them in its tool trace.

Review validation and citation evidence platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-capabilities.ts, platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-evidence-consumption.ts	The review_evidence capability accepts acknowledgements for excerpts delivered in the same pass and scope. Filed quotes are also captured as evidence for cursor progress.
Cursor progress and stalled-source handling platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-evidence-consumption.ts, platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-evidence-reviews.ts	Consumption recording advances cursors through contiguous reviewed or cited ranges. It tracks stalled passes, raises source attention after three stalled passes, and resolves stalled attention after progress or reviewed exclusion.
Queue resumption and source-attention handling platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-evidence.ts, platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-capabilities.ts, platform/daemon/src/pipeline/dreaming-attention.ts, platform/daemon/src/episodic-sources.ts	Evidence pages resume near reviewed progress with overlap. Queue ordering prioritizes sources below the stall threshold. Bounded probes track imported-source attention, while agent-facing attention queries exclude source-backed evidence_requeue records. Transcript filters use derived entry IDs and revisions.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 172d3

Evidence review progress and stall handling look sound. One narrow gap remains: a maintenance-only pass can mark a new transcript-import nudge as handled. Newly imported conversations may then wait for the regular schedule instead of being processed promptly. The fix is a small, low-risk change.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Stop counting deferred or withheld sources as stalled passes.

The reviewed loop at Lines 544-550 skips review ranges in two cases:

• The source is in deferredEvidence.
• The source's scope is in withheldScopes because a write failed.

The final loop still treats such a revision as "queued without progress" and calls stall.run at Line 615. A source that the agent reviewed can still have its progress withheld by a failed apply_ontology_ops that cites no source. After DREAMING_EVIDENCE_STALL_PASSES such passes, the source receives evidence-stalled attention. It then leaves pendingDreamingEvidenceContinuations because of dec.stalled_passes < ?. The agent did not cause the lack of progress, but the source is still pushed behind fresh sources.

The documentation describes a stall as a pass "without progress". A withheld or deferred pass makes no recorded progress for reasons outside the review, so treat it as neutral and do not count it as a stall.

Proposed fix

 	for (const { delivery, ranges, queued } of ordered) {
 		const source = verifiedDreamingEvidenceDelivery(db, delivery);
 		if (source === null) continue;
+		const sourceKey = `${delivery.agentId}\u0000${delivery.kind}:${delivery.id}`;
+		const progressSuppressed =
+			params.deferredEvidence.has(sourceKey) ||
+			(params.withheldScopes?.has(delivery.agentId) === true && params.filedSources?.has(sourceKey) !== true);
 ...
-		if (!queued || current >= delivery.length) continue;
+		if (!queued || progressSuppressed || current >= delivery.length) continue;

Exclude hidden imported-source attention from the scheduled trigger.

evaluateDreamingTrigger counts unresolved source:% evidence_requeue rows because it excludes only STALLED_EVIDENCE_ATTENTION_SQL. The scheduled worker starts a pass whenever this query returns attention, before token-threshold or interval checks.

resolveImportedSourceAttentionInTx leaves the parent row unresolved while any member has unconsumed evidence. Delivery without acknowledgement does not advance the reviewed cursor, so an unacknowledged member can keep the parent row pending. The row is hidden from agent-facing attention results.

Reuse the same source:% exclusion in the trigger query.

Suggested fix

-const AGENT_FACING_ATTENTION_FILTER = "AND NOT (kind = 'evidence_requeue' AND subject_ref LIKE 'source:%')";
+export const AGENT_FACING_ATTENTION_FILTER = "AND NOT (kind = 'evidence_requeue' AND subject_ref LIKE 'source:%')";

-import { enqueueDreamingAttentionInTx, getDreamingAttentionWorkloadDiagnostics } from "./dreaming-attention";
+import {
+	AGENT_FACING_ATTENTION_FILTER,
+	enqueueDreamingAttentionInTx,
+	getDreamingAttentionWorkloadDiagnostics,
+} from "./dreaming-attention";

-			 WHERE agent_id = ? AND resolved_at IS NULL AND NOT ${STALLED_EVIDENCE_ATTENTION_SQL} LIMIT 1`,
+			 WHERE agent_id = ? AND resolved_at IS NULL
+			   AND NOT ${STALLED_EVIDENCE_ATTENTION_SQL}
+			   ${AGENT_FACING_ATTENTION_FILTER} LIMIT 1`,

Update the scheduled trigger query in evaluateDreamingTrigger to exclude
unresolved hidden imported-source evidence_requeue rows as well as stalled
evidence attention. Reuse the existing AGENT_FACING_ATTENTION_FILTER, exporting
and importing it if needed, so the trigger matches agent-facing attention
visibility.

Count a nudge as seen only when a pass that reads evidence starts after it.

SEEN_IMPORTED_SOURCE_ATTENTION_SQL compares raisedAt with the latest pass start for the agent. The scheduled worker can select incremental-hygiene when hygiene attention and content work coexist. Hygiene passes do not advance evidence or resolve imported-source attention. Their start time can therefore mark the nudge as seen before a content pass reads the imported transcripts.

Exclude hygiene passes from the subquery.
