Adolf memory: migrate Cognee -> Hindsight + Kimi quota tooling

Memory migration (H1-H5, kb#73-77,84): - hindsight service in openai/docker-compose.yml: LLM via Kimi (cognee-llm wrapper), multilingual GPU embeddings (bge-m3 via ollama), jina multilingual reranker; pg0 + model cache persisted - openclaw.json/shared-mcp.json: mcp.servers cognee -> hindsight (bank "adolf") - hindsight-openclaw-plugin: forced-hook memory (before_prompt_build recall + agent_end retain), replacing cognee's hook layer; cognify-sweep dropped - verified live: Russian retain->recall, cross-session recall, bank isolation Kimi quota (kb#62): - adolf-llm/server.js: LLM-free GET /usage route (Kimi managed-usage API) - quota-command-openclaw-plugin: /quota readout command Cognee stack left running (decommission is H4/kb#76). Kimi-quota-footer auto-append abandoned (streamed Matrix replies bypass outbound hooks).

+# Adolf memory migration — Cognee → Hindsight
+
+**Status:** Planned · **Date:** 2026-07-13 · **Owner:** alvis
+
+This is the authoritative design + plan for replacing Adolf's long-term memory
+subsystem (**Cognee**) with **Hindsight** (Vectorize, MIT, self-hosted). It
+supersedes the Cognee-specific parts of `docs/ARCHITECTURE.md` and gates 4–5 of
+`docs/SPIKE-FINDINGS.md` in the OpenClaw fork (`/home/alvis/adolf`).
+
+Memory stays integrated into Adolf **exactly the two ways Cognee was** — as a
+**tool** (MCP) and as **forced hooks** (an OpenClaw memory plugin) — so no
+behaviour the user sees is lost; only the backend changes.
+
+> Scope note: this document + the kanboard **Ready** tasks (H1–H5) are the
+> migration. No live service, compose file, `openclaw.json`, or plugin code has
+> been changed yet — those edits are the H-tasks.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Why migrate
+
+Cognee works, but its Agap deployment carries three structural costs, all
+documented in the (now-retired) kanboard cognee tasks:
+
+- **Three bespoke services** to keep the memory stack alive: `cognee` (FastAPI +
+  embedded Kuzu graph + Qdrant vectors), `cognee-mcp` (a patched MCP→HTTP proxy,
+  local build overlay from kb#70), and `cognee-llm` (a stateless Kimi-CLI wrapper
+  that exists *only* to give Cognee an LLM on the flat subscription).
+- **The cognify pipeline is fragile and expensive.** "Cognify" (turning raw
+  turns into a graph) is an LLM step. On the Kimi CLI it runs ~5–24 s per call
+  and drains the single-seat subscription quota (SPIKE gate 5 recommended
+  LiteLLM instead). The plugin's async "cognify sweep" also silently stalled
+  twice (kb#69) because of OpenClaw plugin-lifecycle edge cases, so freshly told
+  facts weren't retrievable cross-session until the sweep was re-armed.
+- **Scoping is best-effort.** Under `ENABLE_BACKEND_ACCESS_CONTROL=False` all
+  datasets share one graph/vector backend, so per-chat isolation leaks (kb#59).
+
+## 2. What Hindsight gives us
+
+- **One container.** `ghcr.io/vectorize-io/hindsight:latest` — REST API on
+  **:8888**, web UI on **:9999**, built-in PostgreSQL (`pg0`, persisted under
+  `/home/hindsight/.pg0`). It owns its own vector + graph + temporal
+  representation internally (the "four-network" model), so **no external Qdrant
+  or Kuzu** is needed for memory.
+- **Built-in MCP server** mounted at `/mcp` on the same port — ~30 tools
+  including `retain` / `recall` / `reflect`. This **removes the need for a
+  separate `cognee-mcp` proxy container entirely**.
+- **Retain learns on its own.** `retain` runs Hindsight's extraction/reflection
+  pipeline internally (optionally `async`), so there is **no separate "cognify
+  sweep" to arm, throttle, or watch** — the whole class of kb#69 bugs disappears.
+- **Memory banks** are first-class isolation units, scoped by URL path
+  (`/v1/{tenant}/banks/{bank_id}/…`), so per-chat / per-user scoping is real, not
+  best-effort.
+- **Bring-your-own LLM/embeddings** — OpenAI-compatible, Anthropic, Ollama,
+  LMStudio, etc. We point it at the infra we already run (LiteLLM `:4000` and/or
+  Ollama), so we can **delete `cognee-llm`** rather than port it.
+
+Net: **3 services → 1**, plus we drop the cognify-sweep machinery.
+

+```
+
+Reused infra: **LiteLLM `:4000`** and/or **Ollama** for Hindsight's model calls.
+**Retired:** `cognee`, `cognee-mcp`, `cognee-llm`, Qdrant-for-cognee, Kuzu, the
+`cognee-openclaw-plugin`, and all `openclaw.json` cognee references.
+
+### 3.1 Surface (a) — forced hooks (the `hindsight-memory` plugin)
+
+A new OpenClaw memory plugin replacing `cognee-openclaw-plugin`, modelled on the
+same Honcho touchpoints Cognee used, so the plugin shape is familiar:
+
+| Cognee plugin (`cognee-memory`)                     | Hindsight plugin (`hindsight-memory`)                         |
+|-----------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------|
+| `before_prompt_build` → LLM-free graph recall inject | `before_prompt_build` → `recall` → inject `prependContext`    |
+| `agent_end` → raw `/add` (no inline cognify)         | `agent_end` → `retain` (`async:true`) the user+assistant turn |
+| throttled **cognify sweep** (dirty-tracker, timers)  | **removed** — retain does extraction/learning internally      |
+| `cognee_recall` registered tool                      | `hindsight_recall` (+ optional `hindsight_reflect`) tool      |
+
+- Activated via `plugins.entries.hindsight-memory` in `openclaw.json` with the
+  same hook grants Cognee needed: `hooks.allowConversationAccess: true` and
+  `allowPromptInjection: true` (external plugins must opt in).
+- **Recall stays off the hot LLM path.** Hindsight `recall` is retrieval
+  (semantic + BM25 + graph + temporal) with evidence scoring — no generative
+  synthesis — so it's the direct analogue of Cognee's LLM-free `onlyContext`
+  recall. The LLM-backed synthesis path is `reflect`, exposed as a deliberate
+  tool, not run per-turn.
+- **No freshness dial / sweep.** Retain with `async:true` returns fast and lets
+  Hindsight extract/consolidate in the background; there is no plugin-owned timer
+  to stall.
+- Same "untrusted metadata" framing on the injected block; same cleaning of
+  OpenClaw's `Conversation info (untrusted metadata):` and the memory block out
+  of stored/queried text.
+
+### 3.2 Surface (b) — tool (built-in MCP)
+
+Replace the `cognee` entry in `openclaw.json` `mcp.servers` with:
+
+```jsonc
+mcp: {
+  servers: {
+    hindsight: {
+      type: "http",
+      url: "http://hindsight:8888/mcp/adolf/",   // bank-scoped by URL path
+    },
+    // openclaw-tools, kanboard, marketplace — unchanged
+  },
+}
+```
+
+The single bank in the path (`adolf`, or a per-chat bank) selects isolation; the
+built-in MCP then exposes `retain`, `recall`, `reflect`, plus mental-model /
+directive / memory-browse tools. This replaces cognee-mcp's `remember` / `recall`
+/ `forget` — and gives deliberate delete via the memory-management tools instead
+of the hand-patched `forget(data_id)` from kb#70.
+
+## 4. REST / MCP API mapping
+
+Base path: `http://hindsight:8888/v1/default` (tenant `default`). Bank id is a
+**path** parameter.
+
+| Operation        | Cognee (old)                                   | Hindsight (new)                                                        |
+|------------------|------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
+| store a turn     | `POST /api/v1/add` (+ later `/cognify`)        | `POST /banks/{bank}/memories`  body `{items:[{content,context,tags,timestamp}], async:true}` |
+| recall (no LLM)  | `POST /api/v1/search` `GRAPH_COMPLETION` `onlyContext:true` | `POST /banks/{bank}/memories/recall`  body `{query, budget, max_tokens, tags}` |
+| deep answer (LLM)| cognee-mcp `recall` (GRAPH_COMPLETION)         | `POST /banks/{bank}/reflect`  body `{query, budget, max_tokens, response_schema?}` |
+| delete an entry  | patched `forget(dataset, data_id)` (kb#70)     | memory-management endpoints / MCP (`delete`, `clear_memories`)        |
+| list / inspect   | dataset status polling                         | `GET /banks/{bank}/memories/list`, `GET /banks`                       |
+| create bank      | dataset created implicitly on add              | `PUT /banks/{bank}`                                                    |
+
+Built-in MCP tools live at `http://hindsight:8888/mcp/{bank}/` (HTTP transport;
+bank via URL path, `X-Bank-Id` header, or `HINDSIGHT_MCP_BANK_ID` default).
+
+> Exact request-body field names and any auth headers must be confirmed against
+> the running instance's OpenAPI (`http://localhost:8888/docs`) and the Hindsight
+> configuration docs during H1 — treat the bodies above as the shape, not gospel.
+
+## 5. Bank scoping
+
+Mirror Cognee's per-conversation `chat_<chatId>` dataset with a per-conversation
+**bank**: derive `bank_id` from OpenClaw's `chat_id` (the
+`Conversation info (untrusted metadata):` block; see SPIKE gate 2), sanitized to
+`chat_<slug>`. A single shared `adolf` bank is the simpler alternative if
+cross-chat recall is actually wanted — decide in H3. Banks are hard isolation in
+Hindsight, so per-chat is now safe (unlike Cognee's leaky datasets).
+
+## 6. Open decisions (resolve in H1)
+
+1. **LLM backend for retain/reflect.** SPIKE gate 5 already concluded the
+   extraction workload should *not* sit on the Kimi CLI (latency + single-seat
+   quota). Recommendation: point Hindsight's LLM at **LiteLLM `:4000`** (or a
+   local **Ollama** model for zero marginal cost). This is why `cognee-llm` is
+   deleted, not ported. Confirm Hindsight's provider env-var names on the image.
+2. **Embeddings.** Prefer the local **Ollama** embedder already available
+   (`nomic-embed` / `bge-m3` at `host.docker.internal:11436`) or Hindsight's
+   built-in, to keep embeddings off any paid path.
+3. **Storage path.** Persist `pg0` under `/mnt/ssd/dbs/hindsight/` to match the
+   Agap storage layout (replaces `/mnt/ssd/dbs/cognee/`).
+4. **UI exposure.** Whether to reverse-proxy the `:9999` UI (Caddy) or keep it
+   internal-only.
+5. **Auth.** Open by default; enable the tenant API-key extension
+   (`HINDSIGHT_API_TENANT_API_KEY`, `Authorization: Bearer`) if the service is
+   reachable beyond the compose network.
+
+## 7. Data migration
+
+Cognee's Kuzu graph is **not** portable into Hindsight's store. The memory corpus
+is low-value conversational history, so **start Hindsight empty** rather than
+building an exporter. Optionally replay a handful of durable facts by calling
+`retain` once at cutover. The two throwaway datasets left in Cognee
+(`chat_verify`, `chat_webchat`) are discarded with the stack.
+
+## 8. Migration phases (kanboard **Ready**, project *Adolf*)
+
+- **H1 · Deploy Hindsight service** — add the `hindsight` container to
+  `openai/docker-compose.yml` (image, ports 8888/9999, `pg0` volume, LLM +
+  embedding provider env → LiteLLM/Ollama), bring it up, confirm `/docs` + a
+  round-trip `retain`→`recall`. Resolves §6 decisions.
+- **H2 · Wire built-in MCP as an Adolf tool** — swap `mcp.servers.cognee` →
+  `mcp.servers.hindsight` (`/mcp/{bank}/`) in `openclaw.json`; verify Adolf can
+  call `retain`/`recall`/`reflect` as tools.
+- **H3 · `hindsight-memory` OpenClaw plugin (forced hooks)** — build the plugin
+  replacing `cognee-openclaw-plugin`: `before_prompt_build`→recall inject,
+  `agent_end`→`retain(async)`, `hindsight_recall`/`hindsight_reflect` tools, bank
+  scoping; activate in `openclaw.json`. Delete the cognify-sweep machinery.
+- **H4 · Decommission Cognee** — remove `cognee`, `cognee-mcp`, `cognee-llm`
+  services + volumes, the `cognee-openclaw-plugin`, and all `openclaw.json`/
+  `shared-mcp.json` cognee references. Free `/mnt/ssd/dbs/cognee`.
+- **H5 · End-to-end verification** — state a fact → fresh session → recalled via
+  injected memory (no LLM on the recall path); measure recall latency; confirm
+  per-bank isolation; confirm no sweep/timer exists to stall.
+
+## 9. What is unchanged
+
+The Kimi/OpenClaw/Matrix substrate is untouched: `adolf` gateway, `adolf-llm`
+(:8010) provider, the SSE-heartbeat/idle-watchdog fix (kb#71), the
+`openclaw-tools` bridge, `kanboard`/`marketplace` MCP servers, Matrix allow-list
+and E2EE. Only the memory backend and its two integration surfaces change.

+/**
+ * Hindsight Memory — an OpenClaw memory plugin, structural successor to
+ * cognee-openclaw-plugin (kb #75, H3). Same three touchpoints as the Cognee
+ * plugin it replaces:
+ *
+ *   before_prompt_build -> recall  => LLM-free retrieval, injected as prependContext
+ *   agent_end           -> retain  => async persist of the turn (extraction runs server-side)
+ *   *_recall / *_reflect tool      => on-demand recall (LLM-free) / reflect (LLM-synthesized)
+ *
+ * Why recall is LLM-free (verified against the live service, kb #75 H3):
+ *   POST /v1/default/banks/{bank}/memories/recall does semantic + BM25 (keyword)
+ *   + spreading-activation graph traversal + temporal scoring and returns ranked
+ *   raw fact/observation text (RecallResult.text) directly — there is no
+ *   generation step on this path. (Verified via a live probe against a
+ *   throwaway bank: POST retain -> POST recall returned the stored fact
+ *   verbatim, no LLM call in the response.) The separate POST .../reflect
+ *   endpoint is the LLM-synthesized path (used only by the optional
+ *   hindsight_reflect tool below, never by the forced hooks).
+ *
+ * Key simplification vs. the Cognee plugin: no cognify-sweep machinery.
+ * Cognee needed an explicit, throttled background "cognify" step (dirty-set
+ * tracker + persisted state + per-dataset throttle) to turn raw added text
+ * into graph facts. Hindsight's retain endpoint does extraction, embedding,
+ * dedup, and entity/temporal linking server-side as part of the retain call
+ * itself (async:true just makes that happen off the request path) — so the
+ * whole class of "sweep never got re-armed after a hot-reload" bugs the
+ * Cognee plugin had to work around does not exist here. There is nothing to
+ * port.
+ *
+ * Bank scoping: a single shared bank ("adolf" by default), NOT per-chat
+ * datasets like the Cognee plugin used. Two reasons this diverges from the
+ * Cognee reference:
+ *   1. H2 (kb #74) already pointed the MCP tool surface at a single bank
+ *      (mcp.servers.hindsight -> http://hindsight:8888/mcp/adolf/). If this
+ *      plugin's hooks wrote to per-chat banks instead, a fact the model
+ *      stores/recalls via the MCP tools would live in a different bank than
+ *      the one the forced hooks read/write, silently fragmenting memory.
+ *   2. Cognee's per-chat "datasets" were explicitly a best-effort mitigation
+ *      for a backend that leaks across datasets when
+ *      ENABLE_BACKEND_ACCESS_CONTROL=False (see the old plugin's
+ *      `datasetFor` comment) — i.e. Cognee could not do real isolation, so
+ *      splitting by chat was the closest available approximation. Hindsight
+ *      banks are hard, real isolation; Adolf has exactly one owner/DM
+ *      allowlist (see channels.matrix.dm.allowFrom in openclaw.json), so
+ *      there is no isolation need that per-chat banks would actually solve
+ *      here — they would only fragment recall across a single user's own
+ *      conversations. The chat/session id is still attached to each stored
+ *      turn as free-text `context` for provenance/debugging, without
+ *      affecting bank-level isolation or recall filtering.
+ *
+ * Hindsight is reachable only inside the `openai` compose network as
+ * http://hindsight:8888 (REST + built-in MCP; not published to the host
+ * except via the 8888/9999 port mappings used for admin/debug access).

+/**
+ * Kimi Quota Command (kb #62) — registers `/quota` on Adolf's Matrix channel.
+ *
+ * OpenClaw's native-command dispatch (`api.registerCommand`) runs a
+ * `/`-prefixed command BEFORE the agent turn: no model is invoked, so this
+ * never spends a Kimi turn (unlike asking Adolf in prose "what's my quota").
+ * It hits adolf-llm's own GET /usage route (server.js, kb #62 piece 1), which
+ * itself talks straight to Kimi's managed-usage API — no LLM anywhere in the
+ * path.
+ *
+ * Gating: `requireAuth: true` (the registerCommand default) restricts the
+ * command to `ctx.isAuthorizedSender`, i.e. the same Matrix DM allowlist
+ * (`channels.matrix.dm.allowFrom` in openclaw.json) that already gates every
+ * other interaction with Adolf. No separate owner-only tier is needed here —
+ * it's a read-only status line, not a privileged action.
