The graph becomes useful. Before this commit, entities sat in the DB
as data with no narrative. After: the director can ask "what am I
forgetting?" and get a structured answer in milliseconds.
New module (src/atocore/engineering/queries.py, 360 lines):
Structure queries (Q-001/004/005/008/013):
- system_map(project): full subsystem → component tree + orphans +
materials joined per component
- decisions_affecting(project, subsystem_id?): decisions linked via
AFFECTED_BY_DECISION, scoped to a subsystem or whole project
- requirements_for(component_id): Q-005 forward trace
- recent_changes(project, since, limit): Q-013 via memory_audit join
(reuses the Phase 4 audit infrastructure — entity_kind='entity')
The 3 killer queries (the real value):
- orphan_requirements(project): requirements with NO inbound SATISFIES
edge. "What do I claim the system must do that nothing actually
claims to handle?" Q-006.
- risky_decisions(project): decisions whose BASED_ON_ASSUMPTION edge
points to an assumption with status in ('superseded','invalid') OR
properties.flagged=True. Finds cascading risk from shaky premises. Q-009.
- unsupported_claims(project): ValidationClaim entities with no inbound
SUPPORTS edge — asserted but no Result to back them. Q-011.
- all_gaps(project): runs all three in one call for dashboards.
History + impact (Q-016/017):
- impact_analysis(entity_id, max_depth=3): BFS over outbound edges.
"What's downstream of this if I change it?"
- evidence_chain(entity_id): inbound SUPPORTS/EVIDENCED_BY/DESCRIBED_BY/
VALIDATED_BY/ANALYZED_BY. "How do I know this is true?"
API (src/atocore/api/routes.py) exposes 10 endpoints:
- GET /engineering/projects/{p}/systems
- GET /engineering/decisions?project=&subsystem=
- GET /engineering/components/{id}/requirements
- GET /engineering/changes?project=&since=&limit=
- GET /engineering/gaps/orphan-requirements?project=
- GET /engineering/gaps/risky-decisions?project=
- GET /engineering/gaps/unsupported-claims?project=
- GET /engineering/gaps?project= (combined)
- GET /engineering/impact?entity=&max_depth=
- GET /engineering/evidence?entity=
Mirror integration (src/atocore/engineering/mirror.py):
- New _gaps_section() renders at top of every project page
- If any gap non-empty: shows up-to-10 per category with names + context
- Clean project: "✅ No gaps detected" — signals everything is traced
Triage UI (src/atocore/engineering/triage_ui.py):
- /admin/triage now shows BOTH memory candidates AND entity candidates
- Entity cards: name, type, project, confidence, source provenance,
Promote/Reject buttons, link to wiki entity page
- Entity promote/reject via fetch to /entities/{id}/promote|reject
- One triage UI for the whole pipeline — consistent muscle memory
Tests: 326 → 341 (15 new, all in test_engineering_queries.py):
- System map structure + orphan detection + material joins
- Killer queries: positive + negative cases (empty when clean)
- Decisions query: project-wide and subsystem-scoped
- Impact analysis walks outbound BFS
- Evidence chain walks inbound provenance
No regressions. All 10 daily queries from the plan are now live and
answering real questions against the graph.

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
API Endpoints
| Method | Path | Description |
|---|---|---|
| POST | /ingest | Ingest markdown file or folder |
| POST | /query | Retrieve relevant chunks |
| POST | /context/build | Build full context pack |
| GET | /health | Health check |
| GET | /debug/context | Inspect last context pack |
Architecture
FastAPI (port 8100)
|- Ingestion: markdown -> parse -> chunk -> embed -> store
|- Retrieval: query -> embed -> vector search -> rank
|- Context Builder: retrieve -> boost -> budget -> format
|- SQLite (documents, chunks, memories, projects, interactions)
'- ChromaDB (vector embeddings)
Configuration
Set via environment variables (prefix ATOCORE_):
| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| ATOCORE_DEBUG | false | Enable debug logging |
| ATOCORE_PORT | 8100 | Server port |
| ATOCORE_CHUNK_MAX_SIZE | 800 | Max chunk size (chars) |
| ATOCORE_CONTEXT_BUDGET | 3000 | Context pack budget (chars) |
| ATOCORE_EMBEDDING_MODEL | paraphrase-multilingual-MiniLM-L12-v2 | Embedding model |
Testing
pip install -e ".[dev]"
pytest
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.
