+"""knowledge_base.py - GOFAI symbolic knowledge base for the Timmy Foundation fleet.
+
+A classical AI knowledge representation system: stores facts as ground atoms,
+supports first-order-logic-style queries, and maintains a provenance chain so
+every belief can be traced back to its source.  No neural nets, no embeddings -
+just structured symbolic reasoning over a typed fact store.
+
+Usage:
+    kb = KnowledgeBase()
+    kb.assert_fact('agent', 'online', 'timmy')
+    kb.assert_fact('task', 'assigned_to', 'task-42', 'timmy')
+    results = kb.query('task', 'assigned_to', '?x', 'timmy')
+    # results -> [{'?x': 'task-42'}]
+
+CLI:
+    python knowledge_base.py --assert "agent online hermes"
+    python knowledge_base.py --query  "agent online ?who"

+
+Implements a classical means-ends analysis (MEA) planner over a STRIPS action

+The planner uses regression (backward chaining) from the goal state to find a

+No ML, no embeddings - just symbolic state-space search.

+    Action: (name, preconditions, add_effects, delete_effects)
+    Goal:   set of literals that must hold in the final state

+Algorithm:
+    Iterative-deepening DFS (IDDFS) over the regression search space.

+"""temporal_reasoner.py - GOFAI temporal reasoning engine for the Timmy Foundation fleet.
+
+A symbolic temporal constraint network (TCN) for scheduling and ordering events.
+Models Allen's interval algebra relations (before, after, meets, overlaps, etc.)
+and propagates temporal constraints via path-consistency to detect conflicts.
+No ML, no embeddings - just constraint propagation over a temporal graph.
+
+Core concepts:
+    TimePoint:  A named instant on a symbolic timeline.
+    Interval:   A pair of time-points (start, end) with start < end.
+    Constraint: A relation between two time-points or intervals
+                (e.g. A.before(B), A.meets(B)).
+
+Usage (Python API):
+    from temporal_reasoner import TemporalNetwork, Interval
+    tn = TemporalNetwork()
+    deploy = tn.add_interval('deploy', duration=(10, 30))
