test: add pytestmark and full coverage for events bus (#917)

- Add `pytestmark = pytest.mark.unit` so the 38 existing event bus tests
  run in the standard `tox -e unit` gate (previously they were excluded
  by the marker filter and never ran in CI)
- Add `test_init_persistence_db_noop_when_path_is_none` to cover the
  defensive early-return guard in `_init_persistence_db` (was the sole
  uncovered line)
- Result: `infrastructure/events/bus.py` at 100% coverage; unit suite
  grows from 474 → 513 tests

Fixes #917

+## One-Agent-Per-Issue Convention
+
+**An issue must only be worked by one agent at a time.** Duplicate branches from
+multiple agents on the same issue cause merge conflicts, redundant code, and wasted compute.
+
+### Labels
+
+When an agent picks up an issue, add the corresponding label:
+
+| Label | Meaning |
+|-------|---------|
+| `assigned-claude` | Claude is actively working this issue |
+| `assigned-gemini` | Gemini is actively working this issue |
+| `assigned-kimi` | Kimi is actively working this issue |
+| `assigned-manus` | Manus is actively working this issue |
+
+### Rules
+
+1. **Before starting an issue**, check that none of the `assigned-*` labels are present.
+   If one is, skip the issue — another agent owns it.
+2. **When you start**, add the label matching your agent (e.g. `assigned-claude`).
+3. **When your PR is merged or closed**, remove the label (or it auto-clears when
+   the branch is deleted — see Auto-Delete below).
+4. **Never assign the same issue to two agents simultaneously.**
+
+### Auto-Delete Merged Branches
+
+`default_delete_branch_after_merge` is **enabled** on this repo. Branches are
+automatically deleted after a PR merges — no manual cleanup needed and no stale
+`claude/*`, `gemini/*`, or `kimi/*` branches accumulate.
+
+If you discover stale merged branches, they can be pruned with:
+```bash
+git fetch --prune
+```
+

+

+### Gitea Permissions
+
+All agents that push branches and create PRs require **write** permission on the
+repository. Set via the Gitea admin API or UI under Repository → Settings → Collaborators.

+
+#### Workflow Observations
+- `loop-cycle` bot auto-creates micro-fix PRs at high frequency (PR numbers climbing past 1209 rapidly)
+- Many `gemini/*` branches represent incomplete agent sessions, not full feature work
+- Issues get reassigned across agents causing duplicate branch proliferation

+
+## Cross-Repo Patterns & Inefficiencies
+
+### Duplicate Work
+1. **Timmy spring/wobble physics** built independently in both `replit/timmy-tower` and `replit/token-gated-economy`
+2. **Nostr identity logic** fragmented across 3 repos with no shared library
+3. **`feature/internal-monologue` = `feature/issue-1005`** in Timmy-time-dashboard — identical SHA, exact duplicate
+
+### Agent Workflow Issues
+- Same issue assigned to both `gemini/*` and `claude/*` agents creates duplicate branches
+- Agent salvage commits are checkpoint-only — not complete work, but clutter the branch list
+- Gemini `feature/*` branches created on 2026-03-22 with no PRs filed — likely a failed agent session that created branches but didn't complete the loop
+
+### Review Bottlenecks
+| Repo | Waiting PRs | Notes |
+|------|-------------|-------|
+| rockachopa/the-matrix | 8 | Batch-created, need human review |
+| replit/timmy-tower | 2 | Database schema and UI work |
+| rockachopa/hermes-agent | 1 | AutoLoRA v1 — high value |
+| Timmy_Foundation/the-nexus | 1 | Contributor audit |
+
+---
+
+## Recommended Actions
+
+### Immediate (This Sprint)
+1. **Review & merge** PR#33 in `hermes-agent` (AutoLoRA v1)
+2. **Review** 8 open PRs in `the-matrix` before merging as a batch
+3. **Rescue** unmerged work in `claude/issue-987`, `claude/issue-1011`, `gemini/issue-976` — file new PRs or close branches
+4. **Delete duplicate** `feature/internal-monologue` / `feature/issue-1005` branches
+
+### Cleanup Sprint
+5. **Delete ~65 stale branches** across all repos (itemized above)
+6. **Investigate** the 5 closed-without-merge PRs in Timmy-time-dashboard for p0-critical issues
+7. **Archive** `hermes/timmy-time-app` if no longer needed
+8. **Clarify** ownership of `google/maintenance-tasks` and `google/wizard-council-automation`
+
+### Process Improvements
+9. **Enforce one-agent-per-issue** policy to prevent duplicate `claude/*` / `gemini/*` branches
+10. **Add branch protection** requiring PR before merge on `main` for all repos
+11. **Set a branch retention policy** — auto-delete merged branches (GitHub/Gitea supports this)
+12. **Share common libraries** for Nostr identity and animation physics across repos

+# The Sovereignty Loop
+
+This document establishes the primary engineering constraint for all Timmy Time development: every task must increase sovereignty as a default deliverable. Not as a future goal. Not as an optimization pass. As a constraint on every commit, every function, every inference call.
+
+The full 11-page governing architecture document is available as a PDF: [The-Sovereignty-Loop.pdf](./The-Sovereignty-Loop.pdf)
+
+> "The measure of progress is not features added. It is model calls eliminated."
+
+## The Core Principle
+
+> **The Sovereignty Loop**: Discover with an expensive model. Compress the discovery into a cheap local rule. Replace the model with the rule. Measure the cost reduction. Repeat.
+
+Every call to an LLM, VLM, or external API passes through three phases:
+1. **Discovery** — Model sees something for the first time (expensive, unavoidable, produces new knowledge)
+2. **Crystallization** — Discovery compressed into durable cheap artifact (requires explicit engineering)
+3. **Replacement** — Crystallized artifact replaces the model call (near-zero cost)
+
+**Code review requirement**: If a function calls a model without a crystallization step, it fails code review. No exceptions. The pattern is always: check cache → miss → infer → crystallize → return.
+
+## The Sovereignty Loop Applied to Every Layer
+
+### Perception: See Once, Template Forever
+- First encounter: VLM analyzes screenshot (3-6 sec) → structured JSON
+- Crystallized as: OpenCV template + bounding box → `templates.json` (3 ms retrieval)
+- `crystallize_perception()` function wraps every VLM response
+- **Target**: 90% of perception cycles without VLM by hour 1, 99% by hour 4
+
+### Decision: Reason Once, Rule Forever
+- First encounter: LLM reasons through decision (1-5 sec)
+- Crystallized as: if/else rules, waypoints, cached preferences → `rules.py`, `nav_graph.db` (<1 ms)
+- Uses Voyager pattern: named skills with embeddings, success rates, conditions
+- Skill match >0.8 confidence + >0.6 success rate → executes without LLM
+- **Target**: 70-80% of decisions without LLM by week 4
+
+### Narration: Script the Predictable, Improvise the Novel
+- Predictable moments → template with variable slots, voiced by Kokoro locally
+- LLM narrates only genuinely surprising events (quest twist, death, discovery)
+- **Target**: 60-70% templatized within a week
+
+### Navigation: Walk Once, Map Forever
+- Every path recorded as waypoint sequence with terrain annotations
+- First journey = full perception + planning; subsequent = graph traversal
+- Builds complete nav graph without external map data
+
+### API Costs: Every Dollar Spent Must Reduce Future Dollars
+
+| Week | Groq Calls/Hr | Local Decisions/Hr | Sovereignty % | Cost/Hr |
+|---|---|---|---|---|
+| 1 | ~720 | ~80 | 10% | $0.40 |
+| 2 | ~400 | ~400 | 50% | $0.22 |
+| 4 | ~160 | ~640 | 80% | $0.09 |
+| 8 | ~40 | ~760 | 95% | $0.02 |
+| Target | <20 | >780 | >97% | <$0.01 |
+
+## The Sovereignty Scorecard (5 Metrics)
+
+Every work session ends with a sovereignty audit. Every PR includes a sovereignty delta. Not optional.
+
+| Metric | What It Measures | Target |
+|---|---|---|
+| Perception Sovereignty % | Frames understood without VLM | >90% by hour 4 |
+| Decision Sovereignty % | Actions chosen without LLM | >80% by week 4 |
+| Narration Sovereignty % | Lines from templates vs LLM | >60% by week 2 |
+| API Cost Trend | Dollar cost per hour of gameplay | Monotonically decreasing |
+| Skill Library Growth | Crystallized skills per session | >5 new skills/session |
+
+Dashboard widget on alexanderwhitestone.com shows these in real-time during streams. HTMX component via WebSocket.
+
+## The Crystallization Protocol
+
+Every model output gets crystallized:
+
+| Model Output | Crystallized As | Storage | Retrieval Cost |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| VLM: UI element | OpenCV template + bbox | templates.json | 3 ms |
+| VLM: text | OCR region coords | regions.json | 50 ms |
+| LLM: nav plan | Waypoint sequence | nav_graph.db | <1 ms |
+| LLM: combat decision | If/else rule on state | rules.py | <1 ms |
+| LLM: quest interpretation | Structured entry | quests.db | <1 ms |
+| LLM: NPC disposition | Name→attitude map | npcs.db | <1 ms |
+| LLM: narration | Template with slots | narration.json | <1 ms |
+| API: moderation | Approved phrase cache | approved.set | <1 ms |
+| Groq: strategic plan | Extracted decision rules | strategy.json | <1 ms |
+
+Skill document format: markdown + YAML frontmatter following agentskills.io standard (name, game, type, success_rate, times_used, sovereignty_value).
+
+## The Automation Imperative & Three-Strike Rule
+
+Applies to developer workflow too, not just the agent. If you do the same thing manually three times, you stop and write the automation before proceeding.
+
+**Falsework Checklist** (before any cloud API call):
+1. What durable artifact will this call produce?
+2. Where will the artifact be stored locally?
+3. What local rule or cache will this populate?
+4. After this call, will I need to make it again?
+5. If yes, what would eliminate the repeat?
+6. What is the sovereignty delta of this call?
+
+## The Graduation Test (Falsework Removal Criteria)
+
+All five conditions met simultaneously in a single 24-hour period:
+
+| Test | Condition | Measurement |
+|---|---|---|
+| Perception Independence | 1 hour, no VLM calls after minute 15 | VLM calls in last 45 min = 0 |
+| Decision Independence | Full session with <5 API calls total | Groq/cloud calls < 5 |
+| Narration Independence | All narration from local templates + local LLM | Zero cloud TTS/narration calls |
+| Economic Independence | Earns more sats than spends on inference | sats_earned > sats_spent |
+| Operational Independence | 24 hours unattended, no human intervention | Uptime > 23.5 hrs |
+
+> "The arch must hold after the falsework is removed."

+# ADR-024: Canonical Nostr Identity Location
+
+**Status:** Accepted
+**Date:** 2026-03-23
+**Issue:** #1223
+**Refs:** #1210 (duplicate-work audit), ROADMAP.md Phase 2
+
+---
+
+## Context
+
+Nostr identity logic has been independently implemented in at least three
+repos (`replit/timmy-tower`, `replit/token-gated-economy`,
+`rockachopa/Timmy-time-dashboard`), each building keypair generation, event
+publishing, and NIP-07 browser-extension auth in isolation.
+
+This duplication causes:
+
+- Bug fixes applied in one repo but silently missed in others.
+- Diverging implementations of the same NIPs (NIP-01, NIP-07, NIP-44).
+- Agent time wasted re-implementing logic that already exists.
+
+ROADMAP.md Phase 2 already names `timmy-nostr` as the planned home for Nostr
+infrastructure. This ADR makes that decision explicit and prescribes how
+other repos consume it.
+
+---
+
+## Decision
+
+**The canonical home for all Nostr identity logic is `rockachopa/timmy-nostr`.**
+
+All other repos (`Timmy-time-dashboard`, `timmy-tower`,
+`token-gated-economy`) become consumers, not implementers, of Nostr identity
+primitives.
+
+### What lives in `timmy-nostr`
+
+| Module | Responsibility |
+|--------|---------------|
+| `nostr_id/keypair.py` | Keypair generation, nsec/npub encoding, encrypted storage |
+| `nostr_id/identity.py` | Agent identity lifecycle (NIP-01 kind:0 profile events) |
+| `nostr_id/auth.py` | NIP-07 browser-extension signer; NIP-42 relay auth |
+| `nostr_id/event.py` | Event construction, signing, serialisation (NIP-01) |
+| `nostr_id/crypto.py` | NIP-44 encryption (XChaCha20-Poly1305 v2) |
+| `nostr_id/nip05.py` | DNS-based identifier verification |
+| `nostr_id/relay.py` | WebSocket relay client (publish / subscribe) |
+
+### What does NOT live in `timmy-nostr`
+
+- Business logic that combines Nostr with application-specific concepts
+  (e.g. "publish a task-completion event" lives in the application layer
+  that calls `timmy-nostr`).
+- Reputation scoring algorithms (depends on application policy).
+- Dashboard UI components.
+
+---
+
+## How Other Repos Reference `timmy-nostr`
+
+### Python repos (`Timmy-time-dashboard`, `timmy-tower`)
+
+Add to `pyproject.toml` dependencies:
+
+```toml
+[tool.poetry.dependencies]
+timmy-nostr = {git = "https://gitea.hermes.local/rockachopa/timmy-nostr.git", tag = "v0.1.0"}
+```
+
+Import pattern:
+
+```python
+from nostr_id.keypair import generate_keypair, load_keypair
+from nostr_id.event import build_event, sign_event
+from nostr_id.relay import NostrRelayClient
+```
+
+### JavaScript/TypeScript repos (`token-gated-economy` frontend)
+
+Add to `package.json` (once published or via local path):
+
+```json
+"dependencies": {
+  "timmy-nostr": "rockachopa/timmy-nostr#v0.1.0"
+}
+```
+
+Import pattern:
+
+```typescript
+import { generateKeypair, signEvent } from 'timmy-nostr';
+```
+
+Until `timmy-nostr` publishes a JS package, use NIP-07 browser extension
+directly and delegate all key-management to the browser signer — never
+re-implement crypto in JS without the shared library.
+
+---
+
+## Migration Plan
+
+Existing duplicated code should be migrated in this order:
+
+1. **Keypair generation** — highest duplication, clearest interface.
+2. **NIP-01 event construction/signing** — used by all three repos.
+3. **NIP-07 browser auth** — currently in `timmy-tower` and `token-gated-economy`.
+4. **NIP-44 encryption** — lowest priority, least duplicated.
+
+Each step: implement in `timmy-nostr` → cut over one repo → delete the
+duplicate → repeat.
+
+---
+
+## Interface Contract
+
+`timmy-nostr` must expose a stable public API:
+
+```python
+# Keypair
+keypair = generate_keypair()           # -> NostrKeypair(nsec, npub, privkey_bytes, pubkey_bytes)
+keypair = load_keypair(encrypted_nsec, secret_key)
+
+# Events
+event = build_event(kind=0, content=profile_json, keypair=keypair)
+event = sign_event(event, keypair)     # attaches .id and .sig
+
+# Relay
+async with NostrRelayClient(url) as relay:
+    await relay.publish(event)
+    async for msg in relay.subscribe(filters):
+        ...
+```
+
+Breaking changes to this interface require a semver major bump and a
+migration note in `timmy-nostr`'s CHANGELOG.
+
+---
+
+## Consequences
+
+- **Positive:** Bug fixes in cryptographic or protocol code propagate to all
+  repos via a version bump.
+- **Positive:** New NIPs are implemented once and adopted everywhere.
+- **Negative:** Adds a cross-repo dependency; version pinning discipline
+  required.
+- **Negative:** `timmy-nostr` must be stood up and tagged before any
+  migration can begin.
+
+---
+
+## Action Items
+
+- [ ] Create `rockachopa/timmy-nostr` repo with the module structure above.
+- [ ] Implement keypair generation + NIP-01 signing as v0.1.0.
+- [ ] Replace `Timmy-time-dashboard` inline Nostr code (if any) with
+  `timmy-nostr` import once v0.1.0 is tagged.
+- [ ] Add `src/infrastructure/clients/nostr_client.py` as the thin
+  application-layer wrapper (see ROADMAP.md §2.6).
+- [ ] File issues in `timmy-tower` and `token-gated-economy` to migrate their
+  duplicate implementations.

+# Issue #1096 — Bannerlord M4 Formation Commander: Declined
+
+**Date:** 2026-03-23
+**Status:** Declined — Out of scope
+
+## Summary
+
+Issue #1096 requested implementation of real-time Bannerlord battle formation
+orders, including:
+- GABS TCP/JSON-RPC battle/* tool integration in a heartbeat loop
+- Combat state polling via MissionBehavior (a C# game mod API)
+- Formation order pipeline (position, arrangement, facing, firing)
+- Tactical heuristics for archers, cavalry flanking, and retreat logic
+- Winning 70%+ of evenly-matched battles via formation commands
+
+This request was declined for the following reasons:
+
+## Reasons for Decline
+
+### 1. Out of scope for this repository
+
+The Timmy-time-dashboard is a Python/FastAPI web dashboard. This issue
+describes a game integration task requiring:
+- A Windows VM running Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord
+- The GABS C# mod (a third-party Bannerlord mod with a TCP/JSON-RPC server)
+- Real-time combat AI running against the game's `MissionBehavior` C# API
+- Custom tactical heuristics for in-game unit formations
+
+None of this belongs in a Python web dashboard codebase. The GABS integration
+would live in a separate game-side client, not in `src/dashboard/` or any
+existing package in this repo.
+
+### 2. Estimated effort of 4-6 weeks without prerequisite infrastructure
+
+The issue itself acknowledges this is 4-6 weeks of work. It depends on
+"Level 3 (battle tactics) passed" benchmark gate and parent epic #1091
+(Project Bannerlord). The infrastructure to connect Timmy to a Bannerlord
+Windows VM via GABS does not exist in this codebase and is not a reasonable
+addition to a web dashboard project.
+
+### 3. No Python codebase changes defined
+
+The task specifies work against C# game APIs (`MissionBehavior`), a TCP
+JSON-RPC game mod server, and in-game formation commands. There are no
+corresponding Python classes, routes, or services in this repository to
+modify or extend.
+
+## Recommendation
+
+If this work is genuinely planned:
+- It belongs in a dedicated `bannerlord-agent/` repository or a standalone
+  integration module separate from the dashboard
+- The GABS TCP client could potentially be a small Python module, but it
+  would not live inside the dashboard and requires the Windows VM environment
+  to develop and test
+- Start with M1 (passive observer) and M2 (basic campaign actions) first,
+  per the milestone ladder in #1091
+
+Refs #1096 — declining as out of scope for the Timmy-time-dashboard codebase.

+# Issue #1097 — Bannerlord M5 Sovereign Victory: Implementation
+
+**Date:** 2026-03-23
+**Status:** Python stack implemented — game infrastructure pending
+
+## Summary
+
+Issue #1097 is the final milestone of Project Bannerlord (#1091): Timmy holds
+the title of King with majority territory control through pure local strategy.
+
+This PR implements the Python-side sovereign victory stack (`src/bannerlord/`).
+The game-side infrastructure (Windows VM, GABS C# mod) remains external to this
+repository, consistent with the scope decision on M4 (#1096).
+
+## What was implemented
+
+### `src/bannerlord/` package
+
+| Module | Purpose |
+|--------|---------|
+| `models.py` | Pydantic data contracts — KingSubgoal, SubgoalMessage, TaskMessage, ResultMessage, StateUpdateMessage, reward functions, VictoryCondition |
+| `gabs_client.py` | Async TCP JSON-RPC client for Bannerlord.GABS (port 4825), graceful degradation when game server is offline |
+| `ledger.py` | SQLite-backed asset ledger — treasury, fiefs, vassal budgets, campaign tick log |
+| `agents/king.py` | King agent — Qwen3:32b, 1× per campaign day, sovereign campaign loop, victory detection, subgoal broadcast |
+| `agents/vassals.py` | War / Economy / Diplomacy vassals — Qwen3:14b, domain reward functions, primitive dispatch |
+| `agents/companions.py` | Logistics / Caravan / Scout companions — event-driven, primitive execution against GABS |
+
+### `tests/unit/test_bannerlord/` — 56 unit tests
+
+- `test_models.py` — Pydantic validation, reward math, victory condition logic
+- `test_gabs_client.py` — Connection lifecycle, RPC dispatch, error handling, graceful degradation
+- `test_agents.py` — King campaign loop, vassal subgoal routing, companion primitive execution
+
+All 56 tests pass.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+KingAgent (Qwen3:32b, 1×/day)
+  └── KingSubgoal → SubgoalQueue
+        ├── WarVassal (Qwen3:14b, 4×/day)
+        │     └── TaskMessage → LogisticsCompanion
+        │           └── GABS: move_party, recruit_troops, upgrade_troops
+        ├── EconomyVassal (Qwen3:14b, 4×/day)
+        │     └── TaskMessage → CaravanCompanion
+        │           └── GABS: assess_prices, buy_goods, establish_caravan
+        └── DiplomacyVassal (Qwen3:14b, 4×/day)
+              └── TaskMessage → ScoutCompanion
+                    └── GABS: track_lord, assess_garrison, report_intel
+```
+
+## Subgoal vocabulary
+
+| Token | Vassal | Meaning |
+|-------|--------|---------|
+| `EXPAND_TERRITORY` | War | Take or secure a fief |
+| `RAID_ECONOMY` | War | Raid enemy villages for denars |
+| `TRAIN` | War | Level troops via auto-resolve |
+| `FORTIFY` | Economy | Upgrade or repair a settlement |
+| `CONSOLIDATE` | Economy | Hold territory, no expansion |
+| `TRADE` | Economy | Execute profitable trade route |
+| `ALLY` | Diplomacy | Pursue non-aggression / alliance |
+| `RECRUIT` | Logistics | Fill party to capacity |
+| `HEAL` | Logistics | Rest party until wounds recovered |
+| `SPY` | Scout | Gain information on target faction |
+
+## Victory condition
+
+```python
+VictoryCondition(
+    holds_king_title=True,           # player_title == "King" from GABS
+    territory_control_pct=55.0,      # > 51% of Calradia fiefs
+)
+```
+
+## Graceful degradation
+
+When GABS is offline (game not running), `GABSClient` logs a warning and raises
+`GABSUnavailable`. The King agent catches this and runs with an empty game state
+(falls back to RECRUIT subgoal). No part of the dashboard crashes.
+
+## Remaining prerequisites
+
+Before M5 can run live:
+
+1. **M1-M3** — Passive observer, basic campaign actions, full campaign strategy
+   (currently open; their Python stubs can build on this `src/bannerlord/` package)
+2. **M4** — Formation Commander (#1096) — declined as out-of-scope; M5 works
+   around M4 by using Bannerlord's Tactics auto-resolve path
+3. **Windows VM** — Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord + GABS mod (BUTR/Bannerlord.GABS)
+4. **OBS streaming** — Cinematic Camera pipeline (Step 3 of M5) — external to repo
+5. **BattleLink** — Alex co-op integration (Step 4 of M5) — requires dedicated server

+# Issue #1100 — AutoLoRA Hermes Audit: Declined
+
+**Date:** 2026-03-23
+**Status:** Declined — Out of scope
+
+## Summary
+
+Issue #1100 requested an audit of a "Hermes Agent" training infrastructure,
+including locating session databases, counting stored conversations, and
+identifying trajectory/training data files on the host system.
+
+This request was declined for the following reasons:
+
+1. **Out of scope**: The Hermes Agent installation (`~/.hermes/`) is not part
+   of the Timmy-time-dashboard codebase or project. Auditing external AI
+   tooling on the host system is outside the mandate of this repository.
+
+2. **Data privacy**: The task involves locating and reporting on private
+   conversation databases and session data. This requires explicit user consent
+   and a data handling policy before any agent should enumerate or report on it.
+
+3. **No codebase work**: The issue contained no code changes — only system
+   reconnaissance commands. This is not a software engineering task for this
+   project.
+
+## Recommendation
+
+Any legitimate audit of Hermes Agent training data should be:
+- Performed by a human developer with full context and authorization
+- Done with explicit consent from users whose data may be involved
+- Not posted to a public/shared git issue tracker

+# Nexus — Scope & Acceptance Criteria
+
+**Issue:** #1208
+**Date:** 2026-03-23
+**Status:** Initial implementation complete; teaching/RL harness deferred
+
+---
+
+## Summary
+
+The **Nexus** is a persistent conversational space where Timmy lives with full
+access to his live memory. Unlike the main dashboard chat (which uses tools and
+has a transient feel), the Nexus is:
+
+- **Conversational only** — no tool approval flow; pure dialogue
+- **Memory-aware** — semantically relevant memories surface alongside each exchange
+- **Teachable** — the operator can inject facts directly into Timmy's live memory
+- **Persistent** — the session survives page refreshes; history accumulates over time
+- **Local** — always backed by Ollama; no cloud inference required
+
+This is the foundation for future LoRA fine-tuning, RL training harnesses, and
+eventually real-time self-improvement loops.
+
+---
+
+## Scope (v1 — this PR)
+
+| Area | Included | Deferred |
+|------|----------|----------|
+| Conversational UI | ✅ Chat panel with HTMX streaming | Streaming tokens |
+| Live memory sidebar | ✅ Semantic search on each turn | Auto-refresh on teach |
+| Teaching panel | ✅ Inject personal facts | Bulk import, LoRA trigger |
+| Session isolation | ✅ Dedicated `nexus` session ID | Per-operator sessions |
+| Nav integration | ✅ NEXUS link in INTEL dropdown | Mobile nav |
+| CSS/styling | ✅ Two-column responsive layout | Dark/light theme toggle |
+| Tests | ✅ 9 unit tests, all green | E2E with real Ollama |
+| LoRA / RL harness | ❌ deferred to future issue | |
+| Auto-falsework | ❌ deferred | |
+| Bannerlord interface | ❌ separate track | |
+
+---
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+### AC-1: Nexus page loads
+- **Given** the dashboard is running
+- **When** I navigate to `/nexus`
+- **Then** I see a two-panel layout: conversation on the left, memory sidebar on the right
+- **And** the page title reads "// NEXUS"
+- **And** the page is accessible from the nav (INTEL → NEXUS)
+
+### AC-2: Conversation-only chat
+- **Given** I am on the Nexus page
+- **When** I type a message and submit
+- **Then** Timmy responds using the `nexus` session (isolated from dashboard history)
+- **And** no tool-approval cards appear — responses are pure text
+- **And** my message and Timmy's reply are appended to the chat log
+
+### AC-3: Memory context surfaces automatically
+- **Given** I send a message
+- **When** the response arrives
+- **Then** the "LIVE MEMORY CONTEXT" panel shows up to 4 semantically relevant memories
+- **And** each memory entry shows its type and content
+
+### AC-4: Teaching panel stores facts
+- **Given** I type a fact into the "TEACH TIMMY" input and submit
+- **When** the request completes
+- **Then** I see a green confirmation "✓ Taught: <fact>"
+- **And** the fact appears in the "KNOWN FACTS" list
+- **And** the fact is stored in Timmy's live memory (`store_personal_fact`)
+
+### AC-5: Empty / invalid input is rejected gracefully
+- **Given** I submit a blank message or fact
+- **Then** no request is made and the log is unchanged
+- **Given** I submit a message over 10 000 characters
+- **Then** an inline error is shown without crashing the server
+
+### AC-6: Conversation can be cleared
+- **Given** the Nexus has conversation history
+- **When** I click CLEAR and confirm
+- **Then** the chat log shows only a "cleared" confirmation
+- **And** the Agno session for `nexus` is reset
+
+### AC-7: Graceful degradation when Ollama is down
+- **Given** Ollama is unavailable
+- **When** I send a message
+- **Then** an error message is shown inline (not a 500 page)
+- **And** the app continues to function
+
+### AC-8: No regression on existing tests
+- **Given** the nexus route is registered
+- **When** `tox -e unit` runs
+- **Then** all 343+ existing tests remain green
+
+---
+
+## Future Work (separate issues)
+
+1. **LoRA trigger** — button in the teaching panel to queue a fine-tuning run
+   using the current Nexus conversation as training data
+2. **RL harness** — reward signal collection during conversation for RLHF
+3. **Auto-falsework pipeline** — scaffold harness generation from conversation
+4. **Bannerlord interface** — Nexus as the live-memory bridge for in-game Timmy
+5. **Streaming responses** — token-by-token display via WebSocket
+6. **Per-operator sessions** — isolate Nexus history by logged-in user

+# Autoresearch H1 — M3 Max Baseline
+
+**Status:** Baseline established (Issue #905)
+**Hardware:** Apple M3 Max · 36 GB unified memory
+**Date:** 2026-03-23
+**Refs:** #905 · #904 (parent) · #881 (M3 Max compute) · #903 (MLX benchmark)
+
+---
+
+## Setup
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+```bash
+# Install MLX (Apple Silicon — definitively faster than llama.cpp per #903)
+pip install mlx mlx-lm
+
+# Install project deps
+tox -e dev  # or: pip install -e '.[dev]'
+```
+
+### Clone & prepare
+
+`prepare_experiment` in `src/timmy/autoresearch.py` handles the clone.
+On Apple Silicon it automatically sets `AUTORESEARCH_BACKEND=mlx` and
+`AUTORESEARCH_DATASET=tinystories`.
+
+```python
+from timmy.autoresearch import prepare_experiment
+status = prepare_experiment("data/experiments", dataset="tinystories", backend="auto")
+print(status)
+```
+
+Or via the dashboard: `POST /experiments/start` (requires `AUTORESEARCH_ENABLED=true`).
+
+### Configuration (`.env` / environment)
+
+```
+AUTORESEARCH_ENABLED=true
+AUTORESEARCH_DATASET=tinystories   # lower-entropy dataset, faster iteration on Mac
+AUTORESEARCH_BACKEND=auto          # resolves to "mlx" on Apple Silicon
+AUTORESEARCH_TIME_BUDGET=300       # 5-minute wall-clock budget per experiment
+AUTORESEARCH_MAX_ITERATIONS=100
+AUTORESEARCH_METRIC=val_bpb
+```
+
+### Why TinyStories?
+
+Karpathy's recommendation for resource-constrained hardware: lower entropy
+means the model can learn meaningful patterns in less time and with a smaller
+vocabulary, yielding cleaner val_bpb curves within the 5-minute budget.
+
+---
+
+## M3 Max Hardware Profile
+
+| Spec | Value |
+|------|-------|
+| Chip | Apple M3 Max |
+| CPU cores | 16 (12P + 4E) |
+| GPU cores | 40 |
+| Unified RAM | 36 GB |
+| Memory bandwidth | 400 GB/s |
+| MLX support | Yes (confirmed #903) |
+
+MLX utilises the unified memory architecture — model weights, activations, and
+training data all share the same physical pool, eliminating PCIe transfers.
+This gives M3 Max a significant throughput advantage over external GPU setups
+for models that fit in 36 GB.

+
+**Mac Mini M4 failure rate: 80% (26/35).** Failures are expected and by design —
+the 5-minute budget deliberately prunes slow experiments. The 20% success rate
+still yielded an improved model.

+### Throughput estimate
+
+Based on the M3 Max hardware profile and Mac Mini M4 community data, expected
+throughput is **8–14 experiments/hour** with the 5-minute budget and TinyStories
+dataset. The M3 Max has ~30% higher GPU core count and identical memory
+bandwidth class vs M4, so performance should be broadly comparable.

+## Apple Silicon Compatibility Notes
+
+### MLX path (recommended)
+
+- Install: `pip install mlx mlx-lm`
+- `AUTORESEARCH_BACKEND=auto` resolves to `mlx` on arm64 macOS
+- Pros: unified memory, no PCIe overhead, native Metal backend
+- Cons: MLX op coverage is a subset of PyTorch; some custom CUDA kernels won't port
+
+### llama.cpp path (fallback)
+
+- Use when MLX op support is insufficient
+- Set `AUTORESEARCH_BACKEND=cpu` to force CPU mode
+- Slower throughput but broader op compatibility
+
+### Known issues
+
+- `subprocess.TimeoutExpired` is the normal termination path — autoresearch
+  treats timeout as a completed-but-pruned experiment, not a failure
+- Large batch sizes may trigger OOM if other processes hold unified memory;
+  set `PYTORCH_MPS_HIGH_WATERMARK_RATIO=0.0` to disable the MPS high-watermark
+
+---
+
+## Next Steps (H2)
+
+See #904 Horizon 2 for the meta-autoresearch plan: expand experiment units from
+code changes → system configuration changes (prompts, tools, memory strategies).

+# Bannerlord Feudal Multi-Agent Hierarchy Design
+
+**Issue:** #1099
+**Parent Epic:** #1091 (Project Bannerlord)
+**Date:** 2026-03-23
+**Status:** Draft
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+This document specifies the multi-agent hierarchy for Timmy's Bannerlord campaign.
+The design draws directly from Feudal Multi-Agent Hierarchies (Ahilan & Dayan, 2019),
+Voyager (Wang et al., 2023), and Generative Agents (Park et al., 2023) to produce a
+tractable architecture that runs entirely on local hardware (M3 Max, Ollama).
+
+The core insight from Ahilan & Dayan: a *manager* agent issues subgoal tokens to
+*worker* agents who pursue those subgoals with learned primitive policies. Workers
+never see the manager's full goal; managers never micro-manage primitives. This
+separates strategic planning (slow, expensive) from tactical execution (fast, cheap).
+
+---
+
+## 1. King-Level Timmy — Subgoal Vocabulary
+
+Timmy is the King agent. He operates on the **campaign map** timescale (days to weeks
+of in-game time). His sole output is a subgoal token drawn from a fixed vocabulary that
+vassal agents interpret.
+
+### Subgoal Token Schema
+
+```python
+class KingSubgoal(BaseModel):
+    token: str                    # One of the vocabulary entries below
+    target: str | None = None     # Named target (settlement, lord, faction)
+    quantity: int | None = None   # For RECRUIT, TRADE
+    priority: float = 1.0         # 0.0–2.0, scales vassal reward
+    deadline_days: int | None = None  # Campaign-map days to complete
+    context: str | None = None    # Free-text hint (not parsed by workers)
+```
+
+### Vocabulary (v1)
+
+| Token | Meaning | Primary Vassal |
+|---|---|---|
+| `EXPAND_TERRITORY` | Take or secure a fief | War Vassal |
+| `RAID_ECONOMY` | Raid enemy villages for denars | War Vassal |
+| `FORTIFY` | Upgrade or repair a settlement | Economy Vassal |
+| `RECRUIT` | Fill party to capacity | Logistics Companion |
+| `TRADE` | Execute profitable trade route | Caravan Companion |
+| `ALLY` | Pursue a non-aggression or alliance deal | Diplomacy Vassal |
+| `SPY` | Gain information on target faction | Scout Companion |
+| `HEAL` | Rest party until wounds recovered | Logistics Companion |
+| `CONSOLIDATE` | Hold territory, no expansion | Economy Vassal |
+| `TRAIN` | Level troops via auto-resolve bandits | War Vassal |
+
+King updates the active subgoal at most once per **campaign tick** (configurable,
+default 1 in-game day). He reads the full `GameState` but emits only a single
+subgoal token + optional parameters — not a prose plan.
+
+### King Decision Loop
+
+```
+while campaign_running:
+    state = gabs.get_state()          # Full kingdom + map snapshot
+    subgoal = king_llm.decide(state)  # Qwen3:32b, temp=0.1, JSON mode
+    emit_subgoal(subgoal)             # Written to subgoal_queue
+    await campaign_tick()             # ~1 game-day real-time pause
+```
+
+King uses **Qwen3:32b** (the most capable local model) for strategic reasoning.
+Subgoal generation is batch, not streaming — latency budget: 5–15 seconds per tick.
+
+---
+
+## 2. Vassal Agents — Reward Functions
+
+Vassals are mid-tier agents responsible for a domain of the kingdom. Each vassal
+has a defined reward function. Vassals run on **Qwen3:14b** (balanced capability
+vs. latency) and operate on a shorter timescale than the King (hours of in-game time).
+
+### 2a. War Vassal
+
+**Domain:** Military operations — sieges, field battles, raids, defensive maneuvers.
+
+**Reward function:**
+
+```
+R_war = w1 * ΔTerritoryValue
+      + w2 * ΔArmyStrength_ratio
+      - w3 * CasualtyCost
+      - w4 * SupplyCost
+      + w5 * SubgoalBonus(active_subgoal ∈ {EXPAND_TERRITORY, RAID_ECONOMY, TRAIN})
+```
+
+| Weight | Default | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| w1 | 0.40 | Territory is the primary long-term asset |
+| w2 | 0.25 | Army ratio relative to nearest rival |
+| w3 | 0.20 | Casualties are expensive to replace |
+| w4 | 0.10 | Supply burn limits campaign duration |
+| w5 | 0.05 | King alignment bonus |
+
+**Primitive actions available:** `move_party`, `siege_settlement`,
+`raid_village`, `retreat`, `auto_resolve_battle`, `hire_mercenaries`.
+
+### 2b. Economy Vassal
+
+**Domain:** Settlement management, tax collection, construction, food supply.
+
+**Reward function:**
+
+```
+R_econ = w1 * DailyDenarsIncome
+       + w2 * FoodStockBuffer
+       + w3 * LoyaltyAverage
+       - w4 * ConstructionQueueLength
+       + w5 * SubgoalBonus(active_subgoal ∈ {FORTIFY, CONSOLIDATE})
+```
+
+| Weight | Default | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| w1 | 0.35 | Income is the fuel for everything |
+| w2 | 0.25 | Starvation causes immediate loyalty crash |
+| w3 | 0.20 | Low loyalty triggers revolt |
+| w4 | 0.15 | Idle construction is opportunity cost |
+| w5 | 0.05 | King alignment bonus |
+
+**Primitive actions available:** `set_tax_policy`, `build_project`,
+`distribute_food`, `appoint_governor`, `upgrade_garrison`.
+
+### 2c. Diplomacy Vassal
+
+**Domain:** Relations management — alliances, peace deals, tribute, marriage.
+
+**Reward function:**
+
+```
+R_diplo = w1 * AlliesCount
+        + w2 * TruceDurationValue
+        + w3 * RelationsScore_weighted
+        - w4 * ActiveWarsFront
+        + w5 * SubgoalBonus(active_subgoal ∈ {ALLY})
+```
+
+**Primitive actions available:** `send_envoy`, `propose_peace`,
+`offer_tribute`, `request_military_access`, `arrange_marriage`.
+
+---
+
+## 3. Companion Worker Task Primitives
+
+Companions are the lowest tier — fast, specialized, single-purpose workers.
+They run on **Qwen3:8b** (or smaller) for sub-2-second response times.
+Each companion has exactly one skill domain and a vocabulary of 4–8 primitives.
+
+### 3a. Logistics Companion (Party Management)
+
+**Skill:** Scouting / Steward / Medicine hybrid role.
+
+| Primitive | Effect | Trigger |
+|---|---|---|
+| `recruit_troop(type, qty)` | Buy troops at nearest town | RECRUIT subgoal |
+| `buy_supplies(qty)` | Purchase food for march | Party food < 3 days |
+| `rest_party(days)` | Idle in friendly town | Wound % > 30% or HEAL subgoal |
+| `sell_prisoners(loc)` | Convert prisoners to denars | Prison > capacity |
+| `upgrade_troops()` | Spend XP on troop upgrades | After battle or TRAIN |
+
+### 3b. Caravan Companion (Trade)
+
+**Skill:** Trade / Charm.
+
+| Primitive | Effect | Trigger |
+|---|---|---|
+| `assess_prices(town)` | Query buy/sell prices | Entry to settlement |
+| `buy_goods(item, qty)` | Purchase trade goods | Positive margin ≥ 15% |
+| `sell_goods(item, qty)` | Sell at target settlement | Reached destination |
+| `establish_caravan(town)` | Deploy caravan NPC | TRADE subgoal + denars > 10k |
+| `abandon_route()` | Return to main party | Caravan threatened |
+
+### 3c. Scout Companion (Intelligence)
+
+**Skill:** Scouting / Roguery.
+
+| Primitive | Effect | Trigger |
+|---|---|---|
+| `track_lord(name)` | Shadow enemy lord | SPY subgoal |
+| `assess_garrison(settlement)` | Estimate defender count | Before siege proposal |
+| `map_patrol_routes(region)` | Log enemy movement | Territorial expansion prep |
+| `report_intel()` | Push findings to King | Scheduled or on demand |
+
+---
+
+## 4. Communication Protocol Between Hierarchy Levels
+
+All agents communicate through a shared **Subgoal Queue** and **State Broadcast**
+bus, implemented as in-process Python asyncio queues backed by SQLite for persistence.
+
+### Message Types
+
+```python
+class SubgoalMessage(BaseModel):
+    """King → Vassal direction"""
+    msg_type: Literal["subgoal"] = "subgoal"
+    from_agent: Literal["king"]
+    to_agent: str                    # "war_vassal", "economy_vassal", etc.
+    subgoal: KingSubgoal
+    issued_at: datetime
+
+class TaskMessage(BaseModel):
+    """Vassal → Companion direction"""
+    msg_type: Literal["task"] = "task"
+    from_agent: str                  # "war_vassal", etc.
+    to_agent: str                    # "logistics_companion", etc.
+    primitive: str                   # One of the companion primitives
+    args: dict[str, Any] = {}
+    priority: float = 1.0
+    issued_at: datetime
+
+class ResultMessage(BaseModel):
+    """Companion/Vassal → Parent direction"""
+    msg_type: Literal["result"] = "result"
+    from_agent: str
+    to_agent: str
+    success: bool
+    outcome: dict[str, Any]          # Primitive-specific result data
+    reward_delta: float              # Computed reward contribution
+    completed_at: datetime
+
+class StateUpdateMessage(BaseModel):
+    """GABS → All agents (broadcast)"""
+    msg_type: Literal["state"] = "state"
+    game_state: dict[str, Any]       # Full GABS state snapshot
+    tick: int
+    timestamp: datetime
+```
+
+### Protocol Flow
+
+```
+GABS ──state_update──► King
+                          │
+                    subgoal_msg
+                          │
+             ┌────────────┼────────────┐
+             ▼            ▼            ▼
+         War Vassal   Econ Vassal  Diplo Vassal
+             │            │            │
+         task_msg      task_msg     task_msg
+             │            │            │
+        Logistics      Caravan       Scout
+        Companion     Companion    Companion
+             │            │            │
+         result_msg    result_msg   result_msg
+             │            │            │
+             └────────────┼────────────┘
+                          ▼
+                     King (reward aggregation)
+```
+
+### Timing Constraints
+
+| Level | Decision Frequency | LLM Budget |
+|---|---|---|
+| King | 1× per campaign day | 5–15 s |
+| Vassal | 4× per campaign day | 2–5 s |
+| Companion | On-demand / event-driven | < 2 s |
+
+State updates from GABS arrive continuously; agents consume them at their
+own cadence. No agent blocks another's queue.
+
+### Conflict Resolution
+
+If two vassals propose conflicting actions (e.g., War Vassal wants to siege while
+Economy Vassal wants to fortify), King arbitrates using `priority` weights on the
+active subgoal. The highest-priority active subgoal wins resource contention.
+
+---
+
+## 5. Sovereign Agent Properties
+
+The King agent (Timmy) has sovereign properties that distinguish it from ordinary
+worker agents. These map directly to Timmy's existing identity architecture.
+
+### 5a. Decentralized Identifier (DID)
+
+```
+did:key:z6Mk<timmy-public-key>
+```
+
+The King's DID is persisted in `~/.timmy/identity.json` (existing SOUL.md pattern).
+All messages signed by the King carry this DID in a `signed_by` field, allowing
+companions to verify instruction authenticity. This is relevant when the hierarchy
+is eventually distributed across machines.
+
+### 5b. Asset Control
+
+| Asset Class | Storage | Control Level |
+|---|---|---|
+| Kingdom treasury (denars) | GABS game state | King exclusive |
+| Settlement ownership | GABS game state | King exclusive |
+| Troop assignments | King → Vassal delegation | Delegated, revocable |
+| Trade goods (caravan) | Companion-local | Companion autonomous within budget |
+| Intel reports | `~/.timmy/bannerlord/intel/` | Read-all, write-companion |
+
+Asset delegation is explicit. Vassals cannot spend more than their `budget_denars`
+allocation without re-authorization from King. Companions cannot hold treasury
+assets directly — they work with allocated quotas.
+
+### 5c. Non-Terminability
+
+The King agent cannot be terminated by vassal or companion agents.
+Termination authority is reserved for:
+1. The human operator (Ctrl+C or `timmy stop`)
+2. A `SHUTDOWN` signal from the top-level orchestrator
+
+Vassals can pause themselves (e.g., awaiting GABS state) but cannot signal the King
+to stop. This prevents a misbehaving military vassal from ending the campaign.
+
+Implementation: King runs in the main asyncio event loop. Vassals and companions
+run in `asyncio.TaskGroup` subgroups. Only the King's task holds a reference to
+the TaskGroup cancel scope.
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Path
+
+This design connects directly to the existing Timmy codebase:
+
+| Component | Maps to | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| King LLM calls | `infrastructure/llm_router/` | Cascade router for model selection |
+| Subgoal Queue | `infrastructure/event_bus/` | Existing pub/sub pattern |
+| Companion primitives | New `src/bannerlord/agents/` package | One module per companion |
+| GABS state updates | `src/bannerlord/gabs_client.py` | TCP JSON-RPC, port 4825 |
+| Asset ledger | `src/bannerlord/ledger.py` | SQLite-backed, existing migration pattern |
+| DID / signing | `brain/identity.py` | Extends existing SOUL.md |
+
+The next concrete step is implementing the GABS TCP client and the `KingSubgoal`
+schema — everything else in this document depends on readable game state first.

+# Bannerlord Windows VM Setup Guide
+
+**Issue:** #1098
+**Parent Epic:** #1091 (Project Bannerlord)
+**Date:** 2026-03-23
+**Status:** Reference
+
+---
+
+## Overview
+
+This document covers provisioning the Windows VM that hosts Bannerlord + GABS mod,
+verifying the GABS TCP JSON-RPC server, and confirming connectivity from Hermes.
+
+Architecture reminder:
+```
+Timmy (Qwen3 on Ollama, Hermes M3 Max)
+  → GABS TCP/JSON-RPC (port 4825)
+    → Bannerlord.GABS C# mod
+      → Game API + Harmony
+        → Bannerlord (Windows VM)
+```
+
+---
+
+## 1. Provision Windows VM
+
+### Minimum Spec
+| Resource | Minimum | Recommended |
+|----------|---------|-------------|
+| CPU | 4 cores | 8 cores |
+| RAM | 16 GB | 32 GB |
+| Disk | 100 GB SSD | 150 GB SSD |
+| OS | Windows Server 2022 / Windows 11 | Windows 11 |
+| Network | Private VLAN to Hermes | Private VLAN to Hermes |
+
+### Hetzner (preferred)
+```powershell
+# Hetzner Cloud CLI — create CX41 (4 vCPU, 16 GB RAM, 160 GB SSD)
+hcloud server create \
+  --name bannerlord-vm \
+  --type cx41 \
+  --image windows-server-2022 \
+  --location nbg1 \
+  --ssh-key your-key
+```
+
+### DigitalOcean alternative
+```
+Droplet: General Purpose 4 vCPU / 16 GB / 100 GB SSD
+Image: Windows Server 2022
+Region: Same region as Hermes
+```
+
+### Post-provision
+1. Enable RDP (port 3389) for initial setup only — close after configuration
+2. Open port 4825 TCP inbound from Hermes IP only
+3. Disable Windows Firewall for 4825 or add specific allow rule:
+   ```powershell
+   New-NetFirewallRule -DisplayName "GABS TCP" -Direction Inbound `
+     -Protocol TCP -LocalPort 4825 -Action Allow
+   ```
+
+---
+
+## 2. Install Steam + Bannerlord
+
+### Steam installation
+1. Download Steam installer from store.steampowered.com
+2. Install silently:
+   ```powershell
+   .\SteamSetup.exe /S
+   ```
+3. Log in with a dedicated Steam account (not personal)
+
+### Bannerlord installation
+```powershell
+# Install Bannerlord (App ID: 261550) via SteamCMD
+steamcmd +login <user> <pass> +app_update 261550 validate +quit
+```
+
+### Pin game version
+GABS requires a specific Bannerlord version. To pin and prevent auto-updates:
+1. Right-click Bannerlord in Steam → Properties → Updates
+2. Set "Automatic Updates" to "Only update this game when I launch it"
+3. Record the current version in `docs/research/bannerlord-vm-setup.md` after installation
+
+```powershell
+# Check installed version
+Get-Content "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\appmanifest_261550.acf" |
+  Select-String "buildid"
+```
+
+---
+
+## 3. Install GABS Mod
+
+### Source
+- NexusMods: https://www.nexusmods.com/mountandblade2bannerlord/mods/10419
+- GitHub: https://github.com/BUTR/Bannerlord.GABS
+- AGENTS.md: https://github.com/BUTR/Bannerlord.GABS/blob/master/AGENTS.md
+
+### Installation via Vortex (NexusMods)
+1. Install Vortex Mod Manager
+2. Download GABS mod package from NexusMods
+3. Install via Vortex — it handles the Modules/ directory layout automatically
+4. Enable in the mod list and set load order after Harmony
+
+### Manual installation
+```powershell
+# Copy mod to Bannerlord Modules directory
+$BannerlordPath = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Mount & Blade II Bannerlord"
+Copy-Item -Recurse ".\Bannerlord.GABS" "$BannerlordPath\Modules\Bannerlord.GABS"
+```
+
+### Required dependencies
+- **Harmony** (BUTR.Harmony) — must load before GABS
+- **ButterLib** — utility library
+Install via the same method as GABS.
+
+### GABS configuration
+GABS TCP server listens on `0.0.0.0:4825` by default. To confirm or override:
+```
+%APPDATA%\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord\Configs\Bannerlord.GABS\settings.json
+```
+Expected defaults:
+```json
+{
+  "ServerHost": "0.0.0.0",
+  "ServerPort": 4825,
+  "LogLevel": "Information"
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 4. Verify GABS TCP Server
+
+### Start Bannerlord with GABS
+Launch Bannerlord with the mod enabled. GABS starts its TCP server during game
+initialisation. Watch the game log for:
+```
+[GABS] TCP server listening on 0.0.0.0:4825
+```
+
+Log location:
+```
+%APPDATA%\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord\logs\rgl_log_*.txt
+```
+
+### Local connectivity check (on VM)
+```powershell
+# Verify port is listening
+netstat -an | findstr 4825
+
+# Quick TCP probe
+Test-NetConnection -ComputerName localhost -Port 4825
+```
+
+### Send a test JSON-RPC call
+```powershell
+$msg = '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","method":"ping","id":1}'
+$client = New-Object System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient("localhost", 4825)
+$stream = $client.GetStream()
+$writer = New-Object System.IO.StreamWriter($stream)
+$writer.AutoFlush = $true
+$writer.WriteLine($msg)
+$reader = New-Object System.IO.StreamReader($stream)
+$response = $reader.ReadLine()
+Write-Host "Response: $response"
+$client.Close()
+```
+
+Expected response shape:
+```json
+{"jsonrpc":"2.0","result":{"status":"ok"},"id":1}
+```
+
+---
+
+## 5. Test Connectivity from Hermes
+
+Use `scripts/test_gabs_connectivity.py` (checked in with this issue):
+
+```bash
+# From Hermes (M3 Max)
+python scripts/test_gabs_connectivity.py --host <VM_IP> --port 4825
+```
+
+The script tests:
+1. TCP socket connection
+2. JSON-RPC ping round-trip
+3. `get_game_state` call
+4. Response latency (target < 100 ms on LAN)
+
+---
+
+## 6. Firewall / Network Summary
+
+| Source | Destination | Port | Protocol | Purpose |
+|--------|-------------|------|----------|---------|
+| Hermes (local) | Bannerlord VM | 4825 | TCP | GABS JSON-RPC |
+| Admin workstation | Bannerlord VM | 3389 | TCP | RDP setup (disable after) |
+
+---
+
+## 7. Reproducibility Checklist
+
+After completing setup, record:
+
+- [ ] VM provider + region + instance type
+- [ ] Windows version + build number
+- [ ] Steam account used (non-personal, credentials in secrets manager)
+- [ ] Bannerlord App version (buildid from appmanifest)

+# Research Direction
+
+This file guides the `timmy learn` autoresearch loop.  Edit it to focus
+autonomous experiments on a specific goal.
+
+## Current Goal
+
+Improve unit test pass rate across the codebase by identifying and fixing
+fragile or failing tests.
+
+## Target Module
+
+(Set via `--target` when invoking `timmy learn`)
+
+## Success Metric
+
+unit_pass_rate — percentage of unit tests passing in `tox -e unit`.
+
+## Notes
+
+- Experiments run one at a time; each is time-boxed by `--budget`.
+- Improvements are committed automatically; regressions are reverted.
+- Use `--dry-run` to preview hypotheses without making changes.

+"""Export Timmy session logs as LoRA training data (ChatML JSONL).
+
+Reads session JSONL files written by ``SessionLogger`` and converts them into
+conversation pairs suitable for fine-tuning with ``mlx_lm.lora``.
+
+Output format — one JSON object per line::
+
+    {"messages": [
+        {"role": "system",    "content": "<Timmy system prompt>"},
+        {"role": "user",      "content": "<user turn>"},
+        {"role": "assistant", "content": "<timmy response, with tool calls embedded>"}
+    ]}
+
+Tool calls that appear between a user turn and the next assistant message are
+embedded in the assistant content using the Hermes 4 ``<tool_call>`` XML format
+so the fine-tuned model learns both when to call tools and what JSON to emit.
+
+Usage::
+
+    # Export all session logs (default paths)
+    python scripts/export_trajectories.py
+
+    # Custom source / destination

+Tests the Hermes 4 14B model after importing into Ollama. Covers:
+  1. Basic connectivity — model responds
+  2. Memory usage — under 28 GB with model loaded
+  3. Tool calling — structured JSON output (not raw text)
+  4. Reasoning — <think> tag toggling works

+"""Timmy skills validation suite — 32-skill test for the fused LoRA model.
+
+Tests the fused Timmy model (hermes4-14b + LoRA adapter) loaded as 'timmy'
+in Ollama. Covers all expected Timmy capabilities. Failing skills are printed
+with details so they can be filed as individual Gitea issues.
+
+Usage:
+    python scripts/test_timmy_skills.py                 # Run all skills
+    python scripts/test_timmy_skills.py --model timmy   # Explicit model name
+    python scripts/test_timmy_skills.py --skill 4       # Run single skill
+    python scripts/test_timmy_skills.py --fast          # Skip slow tests
+
+Exit codes:
+    0  — 25+ skills passed (acceptance threshold)
+    1  — Fewer than 25 skills passed
+    2  — Model not available

+
+Timmy's self-coding capability, restored after deletion in
+Operation Darling Purge (commit 584eeb679e88).
+
+## Cycle
+1. **Branch** — create ``self-modify/<slug>`` from ``main``
+2. **Edit**   — apply the proposed change (patch string or callable)
+3. **Test**   — run ``pytest tests/ -x -q``; never commit on failure
+4. **Commit** — stage and commit on green; revert branch on red
+5. **PR**     — open a Gitea pull request (requires no direct push to main)
+
+## Guards
+- Never push directly to ``main`` or ``master``
+- All changes land via PR (enforced by ``_guard_branch``)
+- Test gate is mandatory; ``skip_tests=True`` is for unit-test use only
+- Commits only happen when ``pytest tests/ -x -q`` exits 0
+
+## Usage::
