Rewritten from a coding-rules-only playbook into the full mode: minimal
solutions AND compressed speech, triggered per conversation by tag.
Two rules lead the prompt because a small local model drops whatever is buried
in the middle. Rule 1: anything destructive gets a full-sentence warning BEFORE
the command, naming what is lost and what to back up - brevity never applies
there. Rule 2: an abstraction asked for with a single use gets a one-line
"not needed" and the small version instead. Rule 1 is repeated at the very end,
which is what made it hold in testing.
Tags carry the trigger words. A reference playbook is injected only when one of
its tag words appears in the message (_route_playbooks), so a playbook with no
matching tag never routes in at all.
Known limits, measured against llama3.1:8b: as a reference playbook only the
voice holds reliably. The build ladder and the warning-before-command ordering
need the playbook promoted to first position, because the chat endpoint appends
memory facts, conversation snippets and documents AFTER the reference block - a
reference playbook cannot own the end of the prompt, so a rule needing recency
weighting cannot get it.

Ported from downstream development. Four independent defects.
1. The memory dump was unrestorable. iterdump() serializes sqlite_vec virtual
tables as a raw INSERT INTO sqlite_master(...) followed by inserts into a
table the replaying connection cannot see, so replaying memory.db.sql died
on "no such table: vec_messages" and left ZERO tables behind. dump_db() now
loads the vec0 extension and filters the derived vec tables out of the
iterdump stream, matched on each statement's target table rather than as a
substring - a chat message whose text mentions vec_messages is an
INSERT INTO "messages" and has to survive.
compare() reported an unreadable dump as "diverged", which read like a real
verdict and made both guards refuse backup AND restore, locking the machine
out of syncing in either direction. Unreadable is now its own verdict.
_extra() compared updated_at against a "" default, but the column is REAL,
so the comparison raises TypeError on the first conversation the other side
lacks - exactly the case it counts. It tests membership first now. The
direction test declared updated_at TEXT, which is why this survived: the
test compared str to str while the field compared str to float.
2. The memory curator invented facts. It attributed the ASSISTANT's words to
the user, wrote absence claims read off the existing-memory block, and added
judgements ("favorite") the user never used. The prompt now scopes the USER
line as the only source, and two deterministic guards drop absence claims
and facts whose distinctive tokens appear nowhere in the user's message -
prompt wording alone did not hold on a 7B curator.
3. _best_vulkan_device scored Mesa's llvmpipe above an integrated GPU, pinning
Ollama to a software rasterizer advertising 31 GiB of "VRAM" - CPU inference
with Vulkan overhead on top. Software rasterizers are dropped.
4. Models.jsx compared catalog names to installed names literally, but Ollama
resolves a bare name to ":latest", so an untagged entry (nomic-embed-text)
read as missing forever and the Required gate never opened. Chatbot.jsx
fetched the model list once on mount although App keeps the page mounted
behind display:none, so a newly pulled model never appeared in the picker
until a full browser reload.

Distilled from the private repo's playbook set with names and personal
specifics genericized. Reuses the same IDs as their private counterparts,
matching the existing main.yaml.
