Extraction prompt rewritten for signal-aggressive mode. The old prompt
rewarded silence ("durable insight only, empty is correct") which
caused quiet failures — real project signal (Schott quotes arriving,
stakeholder events, blockers) was dropped as "not architectural enough".
New prompt explicitly lists what to emit:
1. Project activity (mentions with context — quote received, blocker,
action item)
2. Decisions and choices (architectural commitments, vendor selection)
3. Durable engineering insight (earned knowledge, generalizable)
4. Stakeholder and vendor events (emails sent, meetings scheduled)
5. Preferences and adaptations (how Antoine works)
Philosophy shift: "capture more signal, let triage filter noise"
replaces "extract only durable architectural facts". Auto-triage
already rejects noise well, so moving the filter downstream gives us
visibility into weak signals without polluting active memory.
Added 'episodic' to the candidate types list to support stakeholder
events with a timestamp feel.
LLM_EXTRACTOR_VERSION bumped to llm-0.4.0.
Also: cron-backup.sh now runs POST /ingest/sources before extraction
so new PKM files flow in automatically. Fail-open, non-blocking.

AtoCore
Personal context engine that enriches LLM interactions with durable memory, structured context, and project knowledge.
Quick Start
pip install -e .
uvicorn src.atocore.main:app --port 8100
Usage
# Ingest markdown files
curl -X POST http://localhost:8100/ingest \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"path": "/path/to/notes"}'
# Build enriched context for a prompt
curl -X POST http://localhost:8100/context/build \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{"prompt": "What is the project status?", "project": "myproject"}'
# CLI ingestion
python scripts/ingest_folder.py --path /path/to/notes
# Live operator client
python scripts/atocore_client.py health
python scripts/atocore_client.py audit-query "gigabit" 5

Operations
scripts/atocore_client.pyprovides a live API client for project refresh, project-state inspection, and retrieval-quality audits.docs/operations.mdcaptures the current operational priority order: retrieval quality, Wave 2 trusted-operational ingestion, AtoDrive scoping, and restore validation.
