Row-first gate: consumer-inventory.md gains an engine-tier section — the mem-engine need recorded operator-authority, dated 2026-10-10 (wasm32 sandboxing across the alk protocol family + downstream ffi/napi/python-adapter economics; rusqlite/tokio-postgres structurally out on wasm, so mem is the only triad member the sandbox can carry).
ADR-024 (decisions/024-mem-engine.md) pins the decision set: (1) separate `alkstore-mem` crate — discharges and amends ADR-001 §4 (superseded in part: full contract-v1 engine, not an "implementation convenience"; annotation on ADR-001 §4 + Status, class-1 window still open); (2) honest-ephemeral posture — no durability, single-process, ephemeral by design, never fleet-valid (ADR-010 §3's shared-pool predicate fails structurally), riding ADR-016's carriers unchanged (identity + docs + matrix); (3) full contract v1 tier with the asymmetry classification — `PayloadTooLarge` never produced (SQLite arm), no reconnection concept (reconnect-wake/watcher rows absent from mem's per-engine column), receiver close at engine drop, wake coalescing N/A; (4) `MemStore::new()` engine-native constructor — the one documented exception to the open-prose, core-contract.md Store concept amended; shared-instance (two opens → one engine) rejected with the ADR-016 §4-style re-entry gate (consumer-inventory row), register stays closed; (5) wasm32 — compile-clean for wasm32-unknown-unknown plus the suite's mem column green on host under a current-thread runtime flavor are wave-6 acceptance items; on-target suite execution scoped out with a named collapse condition (wasm-bindgen-test adapter crate) — a scope decision, not a pending-client hedge; (6) mem is not a core dev-dependency — core's doc examples stay mock-based, ADR-001 §4's doctest posture declines.
engine-mem.md (draft): the in-process mapping — guarded per-mechanism state (no pool, no schema bootstrap, no forwarder, no spawn_blocking seam), the tx overlay (staged *_tx effects merged atomically at commit; read-your-own-writes easy, drop-=-rollback trivial; wake-at-commit structural — the seam pg needed pg-fix-tx-wake for, mem pins from birth via the existing tx-commit-atomicity rows), ADR-012 §2 third owner of the curve/opts/@every arithmetic (three-way equivalence, ADR-022's StoreFactory reused verbatim — born pinned).
deployment.md: host-semantics row (single-process, ephemeral, never fleet-valid, wasm32-clean), mem connection-budget subsection (none — nothing to budget), durability-knobs row (the honest row is the absence), toolchain row (wasm32 subset + current-thread-clean, acceptance-cited). README/overview: engine-mem.md row, ADR-024 row, family table entry (alkstore-mem, no driver deps), current-state updated to the implementation phase with engine specs' stable statuses reflected.
implementation.md: wave table gains wave 6 (mem engine, depends waves 1 + 5) and renumbers release readiness to wave 7 (fuzzing decision — the one remaining decided-at-implementation deferral — rides wave 7); wave-6 section records the born-pinned posture, acceptance items, the one suite-harness pre-task (past_stamp_sleep blocking sleep → async sleep, review 003's properties.rs:1683 note), and the window riders (review 003 Finding 1: the pg transient-fault seam, MEDIUM, rides wave 6; Findings 2–3 follow their park into wave 7's pre-release); wave-6 review gate defined; Decided points updated (mem discharged, fuzzing renumbered); stale wave-6 references swept across review docs and the landed tasks' notes (release-readiness items renumbered or annotated).
Docs-only change; verified by cross-reference audit (all ADR/OQ/anchor references resolve, residual wave-6 mentions are correct under the new numbering or carry dated annotations).
Supersedes the inventory's single-crate lean (which was inductive from
'feature sets do not diverge'). Reason recorded: the split isolates the
engines' real asymmetry of work — sqlite rides honker's machinery as
the baseline; postgres is the build-heavy side (LISTEN/NOTIFY +
pg-boss-family schema work) — and makes future engines additive rather
than feature-graph edits. The inventory's uniform-feature-family fact
stands, re-read as 'the core contract stays small'; correction noted in
both documents. Phase-0 plan updated (step 2 resolved, step 3 references
the core-crate trait surface).
The inventory graded streams absent because no paused consumer document
names it; the operator correction: type-filtered event watching from
several places (e.g. repo-change subscriptions in a git app at
gitea/gitlab scale) is a basic reactivity requirement — and notify
(fire-and-forget, no replay) cannot serve subscriptions honestly.
The wanters are applications above the paused crates, which is why the
docs don't carry the row.
Inventory: streams row recorded on operator authority (the REQ-2
recording convention from alkblobs requirements.md), confidence system
gains the operator-authority grade; rate-limits becomes the sole
first-cut candidate. phase-0: OQ-ST-01 summary and OQ-ST-04's
contract-candidates updated to match.
consumer-inventory.md: per-feature scope synthesis over the paused
consumers' written artifacts (alkfs phase-0, alkgit architecture,
alkblobs ADRs, alknet-filesystem POC) — dissolves the circular
'deferring to consumers who can't run until we exist' framing.
notify/locks pinned-or-documented (alkfs invalidation + writer coord,
alkblobs fleet sweeper); queues/outbox documented (alkfs sync outbox,
alkblobs embedder-owned cadence); scheduler documented-thin; streams/
rate-limits/result-storage have no named consumer — kept per working
posture with cut flags, to revisit before implementation.
phase-0.md: OQ-ST-01 answered by the inventory; OQ-ST-02 narrowed
(uniform feature family across engines favors single-crate shape);
OQ-ST-07 sharpened (no consumer needs the loadable-extension surface —
cut-only decision); OQ-ST-04 contract-pinning scoped to inventory rows;
plan step 1 marked done; references extended.
AGENTS.md: architecture context gains the inventory with its
add-a-row-before-assuming rule.
