/**
* VFS bulkWrite Race Condition Fix Tests (v6.5.0)
*
* Tests for the race condition where parallel mkdir and write operations
* could create duplicate directory entities, causing files to become invisible.
*
* Bug: When mkdir and write for related paths are in the same parallel batch,
* the mkdir mutex race window can create duplicate entities. Files created
* with the "wrong" parent entity become invisible in tree traversal.
*
* Fix: Sort operations so mkdirs run first (sequentially, by depth), then
* other operations in parallel batches.

fix: recalibrate find({ limit }) cap + two-tier enforcement + caller location Brainy 7.30.0 introduced a memory-derived synchronous cap on `find({ limit })` to prevent OOM. The cap was sound in intent but ~4x too conservative in calibration: assumed 100 KB per result while typical entity footprint is 7-10 KB (384-dim float32 vector ≈ 1.5 KB + standard fields + metadata). On a 900 MB free-memory box the cap derived to 9000 — breaking common safety-cap patterns like `find({ type, where, limit: 10_000 })` that typically return 10-500 entities. Surfaced as a runtime regression with cascading 500s degrading production dashboards. Three concurrent fixes: A. RECALIBRATE THE FORMULA - src/utils/paramValidation.ts:175,196,212 — the three memory-derived priorities (reservedQueryMemory / containerMemory / freeMemory) all divided by 100 * 1024 * 1024 (100 KB per result, ~10-15x over conservative). Replaced with a new MAX_LIMIT_KB_PER_RESULT = 25 constant that matches observed entity size. - Result: 4 GB container cap goes 10_000 → 40_000; 2 GB cap goes 5_000 → 20_000; 900 MB free-memory cap goes 9_000 → ~36_000. 100k hard ceiling unchanged. `maxQueryLimit` / `reservedQueryMemory` constructor overrides unchanged in behavior. B. TWO-TIER ENFORCEMENT (warn-then-throw) - Below cap (limit <= maxLimit): silent pass, unchanged. - Soft tier (maxLimit < limit <= 2 * maxLimit): NEW — one-time warning per call site (dedup keyed on caller stack frame + limit value), query proceeds. Pre-7.30.2 code that relied on the cap silently allowing typical safety-cap limits keeps working; the warning teaches the recipe so consumers can fix it intentionally. - Hard tier (limit > 2 * maxLimit): throw with the same teaching message format. Real OOM territory; the cap stops being a recommendation and becomes a guardrail. - The 2x soft margin absorbs typical safety-cap patterns (limit: 10_000 against a 9 K-cap box) without disabling OOM protection. Real OOM territory on a JS in-memory brain is hundreds of thousands of results, not 10x the safety cap. C. IMPROVED ERROR / WARNING MESSAGE - Same shape as the 7.30.1 enforcement-error messages: state the problem, name the three escape valves (maxQueryLimit / reservedQueryMemory / pagination), include caller location, link to docs. - Extracted findCallerLocation() helper from brainy.ts to a new src/utils/callerLocation.ts so both the subtype enforcement (7.30.1) and the limit enforcement (7.30.2) share one implementation without circular imports. DOCS - New docs/guides/find-limits.md (public: true) — full reference: why the cap exists, the four memory sources the auto-config considers, the three escape valves with when-to-use-which guidance, and an explicit "pagination is the future-proof pattern" callout (8.0 may tighten the cap further; pagination keeps working unchanged). - docs/api/README.md find() entry gets a one-paragraph `limit` tip + pointer to the new guide. - RELEASES.md v7.30.2 entry. TESTS - New tests/integration/find-limits.test.ts (9 tests): below-cap silent pass; soft-tier warns once per call site (dedup verified by exercising same vs. different source lines via wrapper closures); soft-tier message format (names all three escape valves + docs link); soft-tier message includes caller location; hard-tier throws; hard-tier message format same as soft-tier; consumer maxQueryLimit override raises the cap and shifts both tiers accordingly; pre-7.30.2 regression scenario explicitly covered. - tests/unit/utils/memoryLimits.test.ts — 4 tests updated for the recalibrated cap values (hardcoded expected numbers bumped 4x to match new 25 KB/result assumption). - tests/unit/utils/paramValidation.test.ts — auto-limit test extended to cover the three-tier semantics (below-cap pass / soft-tier silent / hard-tier throw). - Existing suites unchanged: subtype-and-facets 26/26, verb-subtype-and- enforcement 30/30, strict-mode-self-test 13/13. Unit 1468/1468. CORTEX COMPATIBILITY - Zero Cortex changes required. Every change is JS-side: formula recalibration runs in ValidationConfig.constructor(), two-tier enforcement runs in validateFindParams(), both fire before any storage / index / Cortex call. - The new guide notes that Brainy 8.0's Datomic-style Db.find() may tighten per-call limits to keep snapshot semantics cheap; pagination remains the pattern that's guaranteed to keep working. REPO-WIDE CLEANUP Brainy is the only Soulcraft project that is open source. This commit also scrubs closed-source product names and product-specific class/field references from every tracked file in the repo (src/, docs/, tests/, RELEASES.md, CHANGELOG.md). Consumer-reported bugs, regression scenarios, and release notes now refer to "a consumer", "a downstream application", "a production deployment", or "an internal report" — never to the named product. Two product-named test files renamed to neutral diagnostic names. CLAUDE.md gains a project-level guard rule documenting the policy and an example list of the identifiers that may not appear in tracked code. Verification - npx tsc --noEmit: clean - npm test: 1468 / 1468 unit - All four integration subtype + verb + strict + find-limits suites: 78/78 - npm run build: clean - Closed-source product reference audit: clean
