-## The Knowledge Operating System
+**Three database paradigms. One API. Zero configuration.**
-**Every piece of knowledge in your application โ living, connected, and intelligent.**
-
-Stop fighting with vector databases, graph databases, and document stores. Stop stitching together Pinecone + Neo4j + MongoDB. **Brainy does all three, in one elegant API, from prototype to planet-scale.**
-
-```javascript
-const brain = new Brainy()
-await brain.init()
-
-// That's it. You now have semantic search, graph relationships,
-// and document filtering. Zero configuration. Just works.
-```
-
-**Built by developers who were tired of:**
-- Spending weeks configuring embeddings, indexes, and schemas
-- Choosing between vector similarity OR graph relationships OR metadata filtering
-- Rewriting everything when you need to scale from 1,000 to 1,000,000,000 entities
-
-**Brainy makes the impossible simple: All three paradigms. One API. Any scale.**
+Built because we were tired of stitching together Pinecone + Neo4j + MongoDB and spending weeks on configuration before writing a single line of business logic. Brainy unifies vector search, graph traversal, and metadata filtering so you don't have to choose.

-## Entity Extraction (NEW in v5.7.6)
+## Three Indexes, One Query
-**Extract entities from text with AI-powered classification:**
+Every piece of knowledge lives in three indexes simultaneously:
+
+- **`data`** โ **Vector index** โ Content for semantic search. Strings auto-embed into 384-dim vectors. Queried with `find({ query: '...' })`.
+- **`metadata`** โ **Metadata index** โ Structured fields for filtering. O(1) lookups. Queried with `find({ where: { ... } })`.
+- **`relate()`** โ **Graph index** โ Typed, directed relationships between entities. Traversed with `find({ connected: { ... } })`.
```javascript
-import { Brainy, NounType } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-const brain = new Brainy()
-await brain.init()
-
-// Extract all entities
-const entities = await brain.extractEntities('John Smith founded Acme Corp in New York')

-## Why Brainy Is Revolutionary
-
-### ๐ง **Triple Intelligenceโข** โ The Impossible Made Possible
-
-**The world's first to unify three database paradigms in ONE API:**
-
-| What You Get | Like Having | But Unified |
-|-------------|-------------|-------------|
-| ๐ **Vector Search** | Pinecone, Weaviate | Find by meaning |
-| ๐ธ๏ธ **Graph Relationships** | Neo4j, ArangoDB | Navigate connections |
-| ๐ **Document Filtering** | MongoDB, Elasticsearch | Query metadata |
-
-**Every other system makes you choose.** Brainy does all three together.
-
-**Why this matters:** Your data isn't just vectors or just documents or just graphs. It's all three at once. A research paper is semantically similar to other papers (vector), written by an author (graph), and published in 2023 (document). **Brainy is the only system that understands this.**
-
-### ๐ฏ **42 Noun Types ร 127 Verb Types = Universal Protocol**
-
-Model **any domain** with mathematical completeness:
-
-```
-42 Nouns ร 127 Verbs ร โ Metadata = 5,334+ base combinations
-Stage 3 CANONICAL: 96-97% coverage of all human knowledge
-```
-
-**Real-world expressiveness:**
-- Healthcare: `Patient โ diagnoses โ Condition`
-- Finance: `Account โ transfers โ Transaction`
-- Manufacturing: `Product โ assembles โ Component`
-- Education: `Student โ completes โ Course`
-- **YOUR domain** โ Your types + relationships = Your knowledge graph
-
-[โ See the Mathematical Proof](docs/architecture/noun-verb-taxonomy.md)
-
-### โก **Zero Configuration Philosophy**
-
-**We hate configuration files. So we eliminated them.**
+Fork your entire database in <100ms. Snowflake-style copy-on-write.
```javascript
-const brain = new Brainy() // Auto-detects everything
-await brain.init() // Optimizes for your environment
-```
-
-Brainy automatically:
-- Detects optimal storage (memory/filesystem/cloud)
-- Configures memory based on available RAM
-- Optimizes for containers (Docker/K8s)
-- Tunes indexes for your data patterns
-- Manages embedding models and caching
-
-**You write business logic. Brainy handles infrastructure.**
-
-### ๐ **Git-Style Version Control** โ Database & Entity Level (v5.0.0+)
-
-**Clone your entire database in <100ms. Track every entity change. Full Git-style workflow.**
-
-```javascript
-// Fork instantly - Snowflake-style copy-on-write
const experiment = await brain.fork('test-migration')
-
-// Make changes safely in isolation
-await experiment.add({ type: 'user', data: { name: 'Test User' } })
-await experiment.updateAll({ /* migration logic */ })
-
-// Commit your work
-await experiment.commit({ message: 'Add test user', author: 'dev@example.com' })
-
-// Switch to experimental branch to make it active
+await experiment.add({ data: 'test data', type: NounType.Concept })
+await experiment.commit({ message: 'Add test data', author: 'dev@co.com' })
await brain.checkout('test-migration')
-// Time-travel: Query database at any past commit (read-only)
-const commits = await brain.getHistory({ limit: 10 })
-const snapshot = await brain.asOf(commits[5].id)
+// Time-travel: query at any past commit
+const snapshot = await brain.asOf(commitId)
const pastResults = await snapshot.find({ query: 'historical data' })
await snapshot.close()
-
-// Entity versioning: Track changes to individual entities (v5.3.0+)
-const userId = await brain.add({ type: 'user', data: { name: 'Alice' } })
-await brain.versions.save(userId, { tag: 'v1.0', description: 'Initial profile' })
-
-await brain.update(userId, { data: { name: 'Alice Smith', role: 'admin' } })
-await brain.versions.save(userId, { tag: 'v2.0', description: 'Added role' })
-
-// Compare versions or restore previous state
-const diff = await brain.versions.compare(userId, 1, 2) // See what changed
-await brain.versions.restore(userId, 1) // Restore v1.0
```
-**Database-level version control (v5.0.0):**
-- โ
`fork()` - Instant clone in <100ms
-- โ
`merge()` - Merge with conflict resolution
-- โ
`commit()` - Snapshot state
-- โ
`asOf()` - Time-travel queries (query at any commit)
-- โ
`getHistory()` - View commit history
-- โ
`checkout()`, `listBranches()` - Full branch management
-- โ
CLI support for all features
+**[Branching Documentation](docs/features/instant-fork.md)**
-**Entity-level version control (v5.3.0):**
-- โ
`versions.save()` - Save entity snapshots with tags
-- โ
`versions.restore()` - Restore previous versions
-- โ
`versions.compare()` - Diff between versions
-- โ
`versions.list()` - View version history
-- โ
Automatic deduplication (content-addressable storage)
+### Entity Versioning
-**How it works:** Snowflake-style COW shares HNSW index structures, copying only modified nodes (10-20% memory overhead).
-
-**Perfect for:** Safe migrations, A/B testing, feature branches, distributed development, time-travel debugging, audit trails, document versioning, compliance tracking

-## What Can You Build?
-
-**If your app needs to remember, understand, or connect information โ Brainy makes it trivial.**
-
-### ๐ค **AI Agents with Perfect Memory**
-Give your AI unlimited context that persists forever. Not just chat history โ true understanding of relationships, evolution, and meaning over time.
-
-**Examples:** Personal assistants, code assistants, conversational AI, research agents
-
-### ๐ **Living Documentation & Knowledge Bases**
-Documentation that understands itself. Auto-links related concepts, detects outdated information, finds connections across your entire knowledge base.
-
-**Examples:** Internal wikis, research platforms, smart documentation, learning systems
-
-### ๐ **Semantic Search at Any Scale**
-Find by meaning, not keywords. Search codebases, research papers, customer data, or media libraries with natural language.
-
-**Examples:** Code search, research platforms, content discovery, recommendation engines
-
-### ๐ข **Enterprise Knowledge Management**
-Corporate memory that never forgets. Track every customer interaction, product evolution, and business relationship.
-
-**Examples:** CRM systems, product catalogs, customer intelligence, institutional knowledge
-
-### ๐ฎ **Rich Interactive Experiences**
-NPCs that remember. Characters that persist across stories. Worlds that evolve based on real relationships.
-
-**Examples:** Game worlds, interactive fiction, educational platforms, creative tools
-
-### ๐จ **Content & Media Platforms**
-Every asset knows its relationships. Intelligent tagging, similarity-based discovery, and relationship-aware management.
-
-**Examples:** DAM systems, media libraries, writing assistants, content management
-
-**The pattern:** Knowledge that needs to live, connect, and evolve. That's what Brainy was built for.
-
----
-
-## Core Features
-
-### ๐ง **Natural Language Queries**
+Save, restore, and compare entity snapshots.
```javascript
-// Ask naturally - Brainy understands
-await brain.find("recent React components with tests")
-await brain.find("JavaScript libraries similar to Vue")
+const userId = await brain.add({ data: 'Alice', type: NounType.Person })
+await brain.versions.save(userId, { tag: 'v1.0' })
-// Or use structured Triple Intelligence queries
-await brain.find({
- query: "React",
- where: { type: "library", year: { greaterThan: 2020 } },
- connected: { to: "JavaScript", depth: 2 }
-})
+await brain.update(userId, { data: 'Alice Smith' })
+await brain.versions.save(userId, { tag: 'v2.0' })

+### Virtual Filesystem
-### ๐ **Zero-Config Hybrid Search** (v7.7.0)
-
-Automatically combines text (keyword) and semantic (vector) search for optimal results:
+File operations with semantic search built in.
```javascript
-// Just works - no configuration needed
-const results = await brain.find({ query: 'David Smith' })
-// Finds exact text matches AND semantically similar content
+const vfs = brain.vfs
-// Override when needed
-await brain.find({ query: 'exact match', searchMode: 'text' }) // Text only
-await brain.find({ query: 'AI concepts', searchMode: 'semantic' }) // Semantic only
-await brain.find({ query: 'hybrid', hybridAlpha: 0.3 }) // Custom weighting
-
-// Highlight structured content (v7.8.0) โ plain text, JSON, HTML, Markdown
-const highlights = await brain.highlight({
- query: 'warrior',
- text: entity.data // Auto-detects TipTap, Slate, Lexical, HTML, Markdown
-})
-// Each highlight has: text, score, position, matchType, contentCategory
-```
-
-**โ [Hybrid Search Documentation](docs/api/README.md#hybrid-search-v770)**
-
-### ๐ **Virtual Filesystem** โ Intelligent File Management
-
-Build file explorers and IDEs that never crash:
-

-
-### โก Enterprise-Ready Operations (v4.0.0)
-
-- **Batch operations** with retry logic (1000x faster deletes)
-- **Gzip compression** (60-80% space savings)
-- **OPFS quota monitoring** (browser storage)
-- **Metadata/Vector separation** (billion-entity scalability)
-- **Circuit breakers & backpressure** (enterprise reliability)
-
-```javascript
-// Batch operations
-await brain.storage.batchDelete(keys, { maxRetries: 3 })
-
-// Monitor storage
-const status = await brain.storage.getStorageStatus()
-```
-
-### ๐ Adaptive Memory Management
-
-Auto-scales 2GB โ 128GB+ based on environment:
-
-- Container-aware (Docker/K8s cgroups)
-- Environment-optimized (dev/staging/production)
-- Built-in cache monitoring with tuning recommendations
-
-```javascript
-const stats = brain.getCacheStats() // Performance insights
-```
-
-**[๐ Capacity Planning Guide โ](docs/operations/capacity-planning.md)**
-
-### Native Acceleration (Optional)
-
-Install `@soulcraft/cortex` for Rust-powered native acceleration: SIMD distance calculations, native metadata/graph indexes, CRoaring bitmaps, and Candle ML embeddings.
-
-```bash
-npm install @soulcraft/cortex
-```
-
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- plugins: ['@soulcraft/cortex']
-})
-await brain.init()
-// [brainy] Plugin activated: @soulcraft/cortex
-```
-
-Plugins are opt-in โ brainy never auto-imports packages unless you list them in `plugins`.

## Requirements
-> **Deprecation Notice:** Browser support (OPFS storage, Web Workers, WASM embeddings) is deprecated in v7.10.0 and will be removed in v8.0.0. Brainy v8+ will be server-only (Node.js >= 22, Bun >= 1.3.0). Migrate browser deployments to a server-side API.
-
**Bun 1.0+** (recommended) or **Node.js 22 LTS**
```bash
-# Bun (recommended - best performance, single-binary deployment)
-bun install @soulcraft/brainy
-
-# Node.js (fully supported)
-npm install @soulcraft/brainy
+bun install @soulcraft/brainy # Bun โ best performance
+npm install @soulcraft/brainy # Node.js โ fully supported
```
-> **Why Bun?** Brainy's Candle WASM engine works seamlessly with `bun --compile` for standalone binary deployment. No external model files, no runtime downloads.
-
----
-
-## Why Brainy Exists
-
-**The Vision:** Traditional systems force you to choose between vector databases, graph databases, and document stores. You need all three, but combining them is complex and fragile.
-
-**Brainy solved the impossible:** One API. All three paradigms. Any scale.
-
-Like HTTP standardized web communication, **Brainy standardizes knowledge representation.** One protocol that any AI model understands. One system that scales from prototype to planet.
-
-**[๐ Read the Mathematical Proof โ](docs/architecture/noun-verb-taxonomy.md)**

-## ๐ Performance Optimization Guide
-
-### When Performance Matters
-
-| Scenario | Best Choice | Why |
-|----------|-------------|-----|
-| **Bulk Import** | `addMany()` | Batched operations, parallel processing |
-| **Metadata-only Search** | `find({ where: {...} })` | Skips vector computation |
-| **Known ID Access** | `get()` | Direct index lookup |
-| **Large Result Sets** | Pagination with `offset`/`limit` | Memory efficient |
-| **Real-time Streams** | Streaming Pipeline | Memory efficient, scalable |
-
-### Memory Usage Optimization
-
-```typescript
-// โ Memory intensive
-const allResults = await brainy.find({ limit: 10000 })
-
-// โ
Memory efficient
-for (let offset = 0; offset < total; offset += 100) {
- const batch = await brainy.find({
- query: "...",
- limit: 100,
- offset
- })
- await processBatch(batch)
-}
-```
-
----
-
-## ๐ฏ Common Use Case Patterns
-
-### Building a Search Interface
-
-```typescript
-// User types query โ Natural language search
-const searchResults = await brainy.find(userQuery)
-
-// User applies filters โ Structured search
-const filteredResults = await brainy.find({
- query: userQuery,
- where: selectedFilters,
- type: selectedTypes
-})
-
-// User clicks "more like this" โ Similarity search
-const similar = await brainy.similar({ to: selectedId })
-```
-
-### Building a Recommendation System
-
-```typescript
-// 1. Get user's interaction history
-const user = await brainy.get(userId)
-
-// 2. Find similar users
-const similarUsers = await brainy.similar({ to: userId, type: NounType.Person })
-
-// 3. Get their liked content
-const recommendations = []
-for (const similarUser of similarUsers) {
- const relations = await brainy.getRelations({
- from: similarUser.id,
- type: VerbType.Likes
- })
- recommendations.push(...relations)
-}
-```
-
-### Building a Knowledge Graph
-
-```typescript
-// 1. Add entities
-const entities = await Promise.all([
- brainy.add({ data: "Person: Alice", type: NounType.Person }),
- brainy.add({ data: "Company: TechCorp", type: NounType.Organization }),
- brainy.add({ data: "Project: AI Assistant", type: NounType.Thing })
-])
-
-// 2. Create relationships
-await brainy.relate({
- from: entities[0], // Alice
- to: entities[1], // TechCorp
- type: VerbType.WorksFor
-})
-
-await brainy.relate({
- from: entities[0], // Alice
- to: entities[2], // AI Assistant
- type: VerbType.WorksOn
-})
-
-// 3. Query the graph
-const aliceConnections = await brainy.getRelations({ from: entities[0] })
-```
-
----
-
-## ๐ง Migration Guide
-
-### From v2.x to v3.x APIs
-
-| v2.x (Deprecated) | v3.x (Current) | When to Use |
-|-------------------|----------------|-------------|
-| `brain.store()` | `brainy.add()` | Adding entities |
-| `brain.search()` | `brainy.find()` | Searching content |
-| `brain.query()` | `brainy.find({ ... })` | Complex queries |
-| `brain.similar()` | `brainy.similar()` | โ
Same API |
-| `brain.connect()` | `brainy.relate()` | Creating relationships |
-
-### Legacy Type Migration
-
-```typescript
-// โ v2.x way
-import { ISenseAugmentation } from '@soulcraft/brainy/types/augmentations'
-
-// โ

-## Storage Configuration
-
-Brainy supports multiple storage backends for different deployment scenarios.
-
-### Storage Types
-
-#### File System Storage (Recommended for Development)
-Persistent local storage using the filesystem.
-
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- type: 'filesystem',
- rootDirectory: './brainy-data'
- }
-})
-```
-
-#### Amazon S3 Storage
-Scalable cloud storage with S3.
-
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- type: 's3',
- s3Storage: {
- bucketName: 'my-bucket',
- region: 'us-east-1',
- accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
- secretAccessKey: process.env.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
- }
- }
-})
-```
-
-#### Cloudflare R2 Storage
-Scalable cloud storage with Cloudflare R2 (S3-compatible).
-
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- type: 'r2',
- r2Storage: {
- bucketName: 'my-bucket',
- accountId: process.env.CF_ACCOUNT_ID,
- accessKeyId: process.env.R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
- secretAccessKey: process.env.R2_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
- }
- }
-})
-```
-
-#### Google Cloud Storage (Native SDK) ๐
-**Recommended for GCS deployments.** Uses native `@google-cloud/storage` SDK with automatic authentication.
-
-**Key Benefits:**
-- โ
Application Default Credentials (ADC) - Zero config in Cloud Run/GCE
-- โ
Better performance with native GCS optimizations
-- โ
No HMAC key management required
-- โ
Automatic service account integration
-
-**Option 1: Explicit Type (Recommended)**
-
-With Application Default Credentials (Cloud Run/GCE):
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- type: 'gcs-native', // โ ๏ธ Must be 'gcs-native' for native SDK
- gcsNativeStorage: {
- bucketName: 'my-bucket'
- // No credentials needed - ADC automatic!
- }
- }
-})
-```
-
-With Service Account Key File:
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- type: 'gcs-native',
- gcsNativeStorage: {
- bucketName: 'my-bucket',
- keyFilename: '/path/to/service-account.json'
- }
- }
-})
-```
-
-With Service Account Credentials Object:
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- type: 'gcs-native',
- gcsNativeStorage: {
- bucketName: 'my-bucket',
- credentials: {
- client_email: 'service@project.iam.gserviceaccount.com',
- private_key: process.env.GCS_PRIVATE_KEY
- }
- }
- }
-})
-```
-
-**Option 2: Auto-Detection**
-
-You can omit the `type` field and let Brainy auto-detect based on the config object:
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- gcsNativeStorage: {
- bucketName: 'my-bucket'
- // type defaults to 'auto', will use native SDK
- }
- }
-})
-```
-
-#### Google Cloud Storage (S3-Compatible) - Legacy
-GCS using HMAC keys for S3-compatible access. **Consider migrating to 'gcs-native' for better performance.**
-
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- type: 'gcs', // โ ๏ธ Must be 'gcs' for S3-compatible mode
- gcsStorage: { // โ ๏ธ Must use 'gcsStorage' (not 'gcsNativeStorage')
- bucketName: 'my-bucket',
- region: 'us-central1',
- accessKeyId: process.env.GCS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
- secretAccessKey: process.env.GCS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
- endpoint: 'https://storage.googleapis.com'
- }
- }
-})
-```
-
-**โ ๏ธ Common Mistakes:**
-```typescript
-// โ WRONG - type/config mismatch (will fall back to memory storage)
-{
- type: 'gcs',
- gcsNativeStorage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' }
-}
-
-// โ WRONG - type/config mismatch (will fall back to memory storage)
-{
- type: 'gcs-native',
- gcsStorage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket', accessKeyId: '...', secretAccessKey: '...' }
-}
-
-// โ
CORRECT - type matches config object
-{
- type: 'gcs-native',
- gcsNativeStorage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' }
-}
-
-// โ
CORRECT - auto-detection
-{
- gcsNativeStorage: { bucketName: 'my-bucket' }
-}
-```
-
-### Storage Features
-
-All storage adapters support:
-- โ
**UUID-based sharding** - 256 buckets (00-ff) for scalability
-- โ
**Pagination** - Efficient cursor-based pagination across shards
-- โ
**Statistics** - O(1) count operations
-- โ
**Caching** - Multi-level cache for performance
-- โ
**Backpressure** - Automatic flow control
-- โ
**Throttling detection** - Adaptive retry on rate limits
-
-### Migration from HMAC to Native GCS
-
-If you're currently using `type: 'gcs'` with HMAC keys, migrating to `type: 'gcs-native'` is straightforward:
-
-**Before (S3-Compatible with HMAC):**
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- type: 'gcs', // โ ๏ธ Old: S3-compatible mode
- gcsStorage: { // โ ๏ธ Old: HMAC credentials
- bucketName: 'my-bucket',
- accessKeyId: process.env.GCS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
- secretAccessKey: process.env.GCS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY
- }
- }
-})
-```
-
-**After (Native SDK with ADC):**
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- type: 'gcs-native', // โ
New: Native SDK mode
- gcsNativeStorage: { // โ
New: ADC authentication
- bucketName: 'my-bucket'
- // ADC handles authentication automatically
- }
- }
-})
-```
-
-**โ ๏ธ Important Migration Notes:**
-
-1. **Change BOTH the type AND the config object:**
- - `type: 'gcs'` โ `type: 'gcs-native'`
- - `gcsStorage` โ `gcsNativeStorage`
-
-2. **Remove HMAC keys** - Not needed with ADC:
- - Remove `accessKeyId`
- - Remove `secretAccessKey`
- - Remove `region` (optional with native SDK)
-
-3. **Set up ADC in your environment:**
- ```bash
- # Cloud Run/GCE: Nothing needed, ADC is automatic
-
- # Local development:
- gcloud auth application-default login
-
- # Or set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS:
- export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/path/to/service-account.json"
- ```
-
-**Data Migration:**
-โ
**No data migration required!** Both adapters use the same path structure:
-- `entities/nouns/vectors/{shard}/{id}.json`
-- `entities/nouns/metadata/{shard}/{id}.json`
-- `entities/verbs/vectors/{shard}/{id}.json`
-
-Simply change your code and restart your application. Existing data will work immediately.

-- And more...
-
-### Core Interfaces
-
-โจ *Updated in Added confidence/weight to Entity, flattened Result fields*
-
-```typescript
-interface Entity {
- id: string
- vector: Vector
- type: NounType
- data?: any
- metadata?: T
- service?: string
- createdAt: number
- updatedAt?: number
- confidence?: number // NEW: Type classification confidence (0-1)
- weight?: number // NEW: Entity importance/salience (0-1)
-}
-
-interface Relation {
- id: string
- from: string
- to: string
- type: VerbType
- weight?: number
- confidence?: number // Relationship confidence
- metadata?: T
- evidence?: RelationEvidence // Why this relationship exists
- service?: string
- createdAt: number
-}
-
-interface Result {
- // Search metadata
- id: string
- score: number
-
- // NEW: Flattened entity fields for convenience
- type?: NounType
- metadata?: T
- data?: any
- confidence?: number
- weight?: number
-
- // Full entity (backward compatible)
- entity: Entity
-
- // Score explanation
- explanation?: ScoreExplanation
-}
-```
-
-**Key Changes:**
-- โ
`Entity` now exposes `confidence` and `weight`
-- โ
`Result` flattens commonly-used entity fields to top level
-- โ
Direct access: `result.metadata` instead of `result.entity.metadata`
-- โ
Backward compatible: `result.entity` still available
-
----
-
-## Performance Characteristics
-
-### Speed Benchmarks
-- **Add entity**: ~5-10ms (with embedding)
-- **Vector search**: ~1-5ms for 1M entities
-- **Graph traversal**: ~10-20ms (2-hop)
-- **Batch operations**: 1000+ items/second
-
-### Scalability
-- **Entities**: Tested to 10M+
-- **Relationships**: Tested to 100M+
-- **Concurrent operations**: 1000+ parallel
-- **Memory usage**: ~1GB per million entities
-
-### Storage Requirements
-- **Per entity**: ~2KB (with vector)
-- **Per relationship**: ~200 bytes
-- **Indexes**: ~20% overhead
-
----
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### 1. Always Initialize
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy()
-await brain.init() // Required before operations
-```
-
-### 2. Use Proper Types
-```typescript
-// โ
Good - specific type
-await brain.add({ data: 'John', type: NounType.Person })
-
-// โ Bad - generic type
-await brain.add({ data: 'John', type: NounType.Thing })
-```
-
-### 3. Batch When Possible
-```typescript
-// โ
Good - batch operation
-await brain.addMany({ items: documents })
-
-// โ Bad - individual adds in loop
-for (const doc of documents) {
- await brain.add(doc) // Slow!
-}
-```
-
-### 4. Use Write-Only for Speed
-```typescript
-// For high-speed ingestion
-await brain.add({
- data: content,
- type: NounType.Document,
- writeOnly: true // Skip validation
-})
-```
-
-### 5. Clean Up Resources
-```typescript
-try {
- // Your operations
-} finally {
- await brain.close() // Always close
-}
-```
-
----
-
-## Input Validation
-
-Brainy uses a **zero-config validation system** that automatically adapts to your system resources:
-
-### Auto-Configured Limits
-- `limit` parameter maximum: Based on available memory (e.g., 8GB RAM = 80K max limit)
-- Query string length: Auto-scaled based on memory
-- Vector dimensions: Must be exactly 384 for all-MiniLM-L6-v2 model
-
-### Common Validation Rules
-- **Pagination**: `limit` and `offset` must be non-negative
-- **Thresholds**: Values like `weight` and `threshold` must be between 0 and 1
-- **Mutual Exclusion**: Cannot use both `query` and `vector` in same request
-- **Type Safety**: `NounType` and `VerbType` must be valid enum values
-- **Self-Reference**: Cannot create relationships from an entity to itself
-
-### Performance Auto-Tuning
-The validation system monitors query performance and adjusts limits automatically:
-- Fast queries with large results โ increases limits
-- Slow queries โ reduces limits to maintain performance
-
-## Error Handling
-
-All methods validate parameters and throw descriptive errors:
-
-```typescript
-try {
- await brain.add({ data: '', type: NounType.Document })
-} catch (error) {
- // Error: "must provide either data or vector"
-}
-
-try {
- await brain.find({ limit: -1 })
-} catch (error) {
- // Error: "limit must be non-negative"
-}
-
-try {
- await brain.update({ id: 'xyz', metadata: null, merge: false })
-} catch (error) {
- // Error: "must specify at least one field to update"
- // Note: Use metadata: {} to clear, not null
-}
-```
-
----
-

-# ๐ง Core API Patterns: Modern Brainy v3.x
-
-> Learn the correct patterns for Brainy's core operations. Avoid v2.x confusion and use modern, efficient APIs.
-
-## ๐จ Critical: Use v3.x APIs Only
-
-### โ **WRONG - Deprecated v2.x APIs**
-
-```typescript
-// DON'T DO THIS - These methods don't exist in v3.x!
-await brain.addNoun(text, type, metadata) // โ Removed
-await brain.getNouns({ pagination }) // โ Removed
-await brain.addVerb(source, target, type) // โ Removed
-await brain.getVerbs() // โ Removed
-await brain.deleteNoun(id) // โ Removed
-await brain.deleteVerb(id) // โ Removed
-```
-
-### โ
**CORRECT - Modern v3.x APIs**
-
-```typescript
-// โ
Use these modern methods instead
-await brain.add({ data, type, metadata }) // Modern unified add
-await brain.find({ limit: 100 }) // Natural language search
-await brain.relate({ from, to, type }) // Clean relationship creation
-await brain.getRelations() // Modern relationship queries
-await brain.delete(id) // Unified deletion
-// Relationships auto-cascade when entities are deleted
-```
-
-## ๐ Entity Management Patterns
-
-### โ **WRONG - v2.x Style**
-
-```typescript
-// DON'T DO THIS - Old API patterns
-import { Brainy } from 'old-brainy' // โ Wrong import
-
-const brain = new Brainy({ // โ Old class name
- complexConfig: true
-})
-
-const id = await brain.addNoun( // โ Deprecated method
- "John Smith is a developer",
- "Person",
- { role: "engineer" }
-)
-```
-
-### โ
**CORRECT - Modern Patterns**
-
-```typescript
-// โ
Pattern 1: Basic entity creation
-import { Brainy, NounType } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-const brain = new Brainy() // โ
Zero config
-await brain.init()
-
-const id = await brain.add({
- data: "John Smith is a developer",
- type: NounType.Person,
- metadata: { role: "engineer", team: "backend" }
-})
-
-// โ
Pattern 2: Bulk entity creation
-const entities = [
- { data: "React framework", type: NounType.Technology },
- { data: "Vue.js framework", type: NounType.Technology },

-```
-
-### โ
**CORRECT - Clean Search Patterns**
-
-```typescript
-// โ
Pattern 1: Natural language search
-const results = await brain.find("React developers working on authentication")
-
-// โ
Pattern 2: Structured search with filters
-const filteredResults = await brain.find({
- like: "machine learning", // Vector similarity
- where: { // Metadata filtering
- type: NounType.Document,
- year: { $gte: 2020 },
- status: "published"

Pattern 3: Similarity search
-const similarItems = await brain.similar({
- to: existingEntityId, // Find items similar to this
- threshold: 0.8, // Minimum similarity
- limit: 10,
- exclude: [existingEntityId] // Don't include the source
-})

Pattern 4: Advanced search with relationships
-const connectedResults = await brain.find({
- like: "frontend frameworks",
- connected: {
- to: reactId, // Connected to React

+# Data Model
+
+> How Brainy stores entities and relationships, and the critical distinction between `data` and `metadata`.
+
+---
+
+## Entity (Noun)
+
+An entity is the fundamental data unit in Brainy. Every entity has:
+
+| Field | Type | Indexed | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `id` | `string` | Primary key | UUID v4 (auto-generated or custom) |
+| `data` | `any` | **HNSW vector index** | Content used for semantic/hybrid search. Strings auto-embed. |
+| `metadata` | `object` | **MetadataIndex** | Structured queryable fields (tags, dates, flags, etc.) |
+| `type` | `NounType` | MetadataIndex (as `noun`) | Entity type classification |
+| `vector` | `number[]` | HNSW | 384-dim embedding (auto-computed from `data` or user-provided) |
+| `confidence` | `number` | MetadataIndex | Type classification confidence (0-1) |
+| `weight` | `number` | MetadataIndex | Entity importance/salience (0-1) |
+| `service` | `string` | MetadataIndex | Multi-tenancy identifier |
+| `createdAt` | `number` | MetadataIndex | Creation timestamp (ms since epoch) |
+| `updatedAt` | `number` | MetadataIndex | Last update timestamp (ms since epoch) |
+| `createdBy` | `object` | MetadataIndex | Source augmentation info |
+
+### Example
+
+```typescript
+const id = await brain.add({
+ data: 'John Smith is a software engineer at Acme Corp', // โ embedded into vector
+ type: NounType.Person,
+ metadata: { // โ indexed, queryable via where filters
+ role: 'engineer',
+ department: 'backend',
+ yearsExperience: 8
+ },
+ confidence: 0.95,
+ weight: 0.7
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Relationship (Verb)
+
+A relationship is a typed, directed edge connecting two entities.
+
+| Field | Type | Indexed | Description |
+|-------|------|---------|-------------|
+| `id` | `string` | Primary key | UUID v4 (auto-generated) |
+| `from` | `string` | **GraphAdjacencyIndex** | Source entity ID |
+| `to` | `string` | **GraphAdjacencyIndex** | Target entity ID |
+| `type` | `VerbType` | GraphAdjacencyIndex (as `verb`) | Relationship type classification |
+| `data` | `any` | โ | Opaque content (overrides auto-computed vector if provided) |
+| `metadata` | `object` | โ | Structured fields on the edge |
+| `weight` | `number` | โ | Connection strength (0-1, default: 1.0) |
+| `confidence` | `number` | โ | Relationship certainty (0-1) |
+| `evidence` | `RelationEvidence` | โ | Why this relationship was detected |
+| `createdAt` | `number` | โ | Creation timestamp (ms since epoch) |
+| `updatedAt` | `number` | โ | Last update timestamp (ms since epoch) |
+| `service` | `string` | โ | Multi-tenancy identifier |
+
+### Example
+
+```typescript
+const relId = await brain.relate({
+ from: personId,
+ to: projectId,
+ type: VerbType.WorksOn,
+ data: 'Lead engineer on the AI module', // Optional: content for this edge
+ metadata: { // Optional: queryable edge fields
+ role: 'lead',
+ startDate: '2024-01-15'
+ },
+ weight: 0.9
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Data vs Metadata
+
+This is the most important concept in Brainy's storage model:
+
+### `data` โ Content for Semantic Search
+
+- Embedded into a 384-dimensional vector via the WASM embedding engine
+- Searchable via **semantic similarity** (HNSW vector index) and **hybrid text+semantic** search
+- Queried by passing `query` to `find()`:
+ ```typescript
+ brain.find({ query: 'machine learning algorithms' })
+ ```
+- **NOT** indexed by MetadataIndex โ you cannot use `where` filters on `data`
+- Stored opaquely: strings, objects, numbers โ anything goes
+
+### `metadata` โ Structured Queryable Fields
+
+- Indexed by MetadataIndex with O(1) lookups per field
+- Queryable via `where` filters using [BFO operators](./QUERY_OPERATORS.md):
+ ```typescript
+ brain.find({
+ where: {
+ department: 'engineering',
+ yearsExperience: { greaterThan: 5 },
+ tags: { contains: 'senior' }
+ }
+ })
+ ```
+- **NOT** used for vector/semantic search
+- Must be a flat or lightly nested object
+
+### Quick Reference
+
+| | `data` | `metadata` |
+|---|---|---|
+| **Purpose** | Content for embedding / semantic search | Structured fields for filtering |
+| **Searched by** | `find({ query })` โ vector similarity, hybrid text+semantic | `find({ where })` โ exact, range, set operators |
+| **Indexed by** | HNSW vector index | MetadataIndex |
+| **Queryable with operators?** | No | Yes (`equals`, `greaterThan`, `oneOf`, etc.) |
+| **Auto-embedded?** | Yes (strings โ 384-dim vectors) | No |
+| **Typical content** | Text descriptions, document content | Tags, dates, status flags, categories, numeric fields |
+
+### Common Pattern
+
+```typescript
+// Add an article
+await brain.add({
+ data: 'A deep dive into transformer architectures and attention mechanisms',
+ type: NounType.Document,
+ metadata: {
+ title: 'Transformer Deep Dive',
+ author: 'Dr. Chen',
+ publishedYear: 2024,
+ tags: ['AI', 'transformers', 'NLP'],
+ status: 'published'
+ }
+})
+
+// Search by content (semantic โ searches data)
+const results = await brain.find({ query: 'neural network attention' })
+
+// Filter by fields (exact โ queries metadata)
+const recent = await brain.find({
+ where: {
+ publishedYear: { greaterThan: 2023 },
+ status: 'published'
+ }
+})
+
+// Combine both (Triple Intelligence)
+const precise = await brain.find({
+ query: 'attention mechanisms', // Semantic search on data
+ where: { author: 'Dr. Chen' }, // Metadata filter
+ connected: { from: authorId, depth: 1 } // Graph traversal
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Storage Field Naming
+
+Internally, Brainy uses different field names in storage vs the public API:
+
+| Public API (Entity/Relation) | Storage (metadata object) | Notes |
+|------------------------------|--------------------------|-------|
+| `type` | `noun` | Entity type stored as `noun` |
+| `from` | `sourceId` | Relationship source |
+| `to` | `targetId` | Relationship target |
+| `type` (on Relation) | `verb` | Relationship type stored as `verb` |
+
+When querying with `find()`, you can use:
+- `type` parameter (convenience alias, equivalent to `where.noun`)
+- `where.noun` directly
+
+```typescript
+// These are equivalent:
+brain.find({ type: NounType.Person })
+brain.find({ where: { noun: NounType.Person } })
+```
+
+---
+
+## Standard Metadata Fields
+
+When you add an entity, Brainy stores these standard fields in the metadata object alongside your custom fields:
+
+| Field | Set By | Description |
+|-------|--------|-------------|
+| `noun` | System | Entity type (NounType enum value) |
+| `data` | System | The raw `data` value (stored opaquely) |
+| `createdAt` | System | Creation timestamp |
+| `updatedAt` | System | Last update timestamp |
+| `confidence` | User | Type classification confidence |
+| `weight` | User | Entity importance |
+| `service` | User | Multi-tenancy identifier |
+| `createdBy` | User/System | Source augmentation |
+
+On read, these standard fields are extracted to top-level Entity properties. The `metadata` field on the returned Entity contains **only your custom fields**.

- namespace?: string // Optional: custom namespace like '_myAug'
-}
-```
-
-## Augmentation Analysis & Classification
-
-### Category 1: No Metadata Access ('none')
-These augmentations don't read or write metadata at all:
-
-1. **CacheAugmentation** - Only caches search results
-2. **RequestDeduplicatorAugmentation** - Only deduplicates requests
-3. **ConnectionPoolAugmentation** - Only manages storage connections
-4. **StorageAugmentation** - Base storage layer, metadata handled by Brainy
-
-### Category 2: Read-Only Access ('readonly')
-These augmentations read metadata but never modify it:
-
-6. **IndexAugmentation** - Reads metadata to build indexes
-7. **MonitoringAugmentation** - Reads metadata for monitoring
-8. **MetricsAugmentation** - Reads metadata for metrics collection
-9. **BatchProcessingAugmentation** - Reads metadata to check for external IDs
-10. **EntityRegistryAugmentation** - Reads metadata to register entities
-11. **AutoRegisterEntitiesAugmentation** - Reads metadata for auto-registration
-12. **ConduitAugmentation** - Reads metadata to pass through operations
-
-### Category 3: Metadata Writers (needs specific access)
-These augmentations modify metadata and need specific field declarations:
-
-13. **SynapseAugmentation** - Writes to '_synapse' field
- ```typescript
- metadata: {
- reads: '*',
- writes: ['_synapse', '_synapseTimestamp'],
- namespace: '_synapse' // Uses its own namespace
- }
- ```
-
-14. **IntelligentVerbScoringAugmentation** - Adds scoring to verbs
- ```typescript
- metadata: {
- reads: ['type', 'verb', 'source', 'target'],
- writes: ['weight', 'confidence', 'intelligentScoring']
- }
- ```
-
-15. **ServerSearchAugmentation** - Might add server metadata
- ```typescript
- metadata: {
- reads: '*',
- writes: ['_server', '_syncedAt']
- }
- ```
-
-16. **NeuralImportAugmentation** - Enriches imported data
- ```typescript
- metadata: {
- reads: '*',
- writes: ['nounType', 'verbType', '_importedAt', '_enriched']
- }
- ```
-
-### Category 4: API/Server (needs analysis)
-17. **ApiServerAugmentation** - Likely read-only for serving data
-18. **StorageAugmentations** (plural) - Collection of storage implementations
-19. **ConduitAugmentations** (plural) - Collection of conduit types
-
-## Implementation Steps
-
-### Phase 1: Update Base Interface
-1. Update `BrainyAugmentation` interface to require `metadata` field
-2. Update `BaseAugmentation` class to have abstract `metadata` property
-3. Add runtime enforcement in augmentation executor
-
-### Phase 2: Update Each Augmentation
-For each augmentation, add the appropriate metadata declaration:
-
-#### Example Updates:
-
-**CacheAugmentation:**
-```typescript
-export class CacheAugmentation extends BaseAugmentation {
- readonly name = 'cache'
- readonly metadata = 'none' as const // โ
No metadata access
- // ... rest unchanged
-}
-```
-
-```typescript
- readonly metadata = 'readonly' as const // โ
Only reads for logging
- // ... rest unchanged
-}
-```
-
-**SynapseAugmentation:**
-```typescript
-export abstract class SynapseAugmentation extends BaseAugmentation {
- readonly name = 'synapse'
- readonly metadata = {
- reads: '*',
- writes: ['_synapse', '_synapseTimestamp'],
- namespace: '_synapse'
- } as const
- // ... rest unchanged
-}
-```
-
-### Phase 3: Runtime Enforcement
-Add a metadata access enforcer that:
-1. Wraps metadata objects based on declared access
-2. Throws errors if augmentation violates its contract
-3. Logs warnings in development mode
-
-```typescript
-class MetadataEnforcer {
- enforce(augmentation: BrainyAugmentation, metadata: any): any {
- if (augmentation.metadata === 'none') {
- return null // No access at all
- }
-
- if (augmentation.metadata === 'readonly') {
- return Object.freeze(deepClone(metadata)) // Read-only copy
- }
-
- // For specific access, create proxy that validates
- return new Proxy(metadata, {
- set(target, prop, value) {
- const access = augmentation.metadata as MetadataAccess
- if (!access.writes?.includes(String(prop)) && access.writes !== '*') {
- throw new Error(`Augmentation '${augmentation.name}' cannot write to field '${String(prop)}'`)
- }
- target[prop] = value
- return true
- }
- })
- }
-}
-```
-
-## Benefits
-1. **Type Safety** - TypeScript enforces metadata declaration
-2. **Runtime Safety** - Violations caught immediately
-3. **Documentation** - Contract shows exactly what each augmentation does
-4. **Brain-cloud Ready** - Registry can validate augmentations
-5. **Developer Friendly** - Most use simple 'none' or 'readonly'
-

-> Learn the correct patterns for Brainy's Neural API. Avoid performance pitfalls and use AI features effectively.
-
-## ๐จ Critical: Access Neural APIs Correctly
-
-### โ **WRONG - Outdated Access Patterns**
-
-```typescript
-// DON'T DO THIS - Outdated documentation patterns
-import { Brainy } from '@soulcraft/brainy' // โ Wrong import
-const brain = new Brainy() // โ Old class name
-
-// These may not work as expected:
-const neural = brain.neural // โ May be undefined
-```
-
-### โ
**CORRECT - Modern Neural Access**
-
-```typescript
-// โ
Use modern Brainy class
-import { Brainy } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-const brain = new Brainy()
-await brain.init()
-
-// โ
Neural API is available after initialization
-const clusters = await brain.neural.clusters()

-}
-```
-
-### โ
**CORRECT - Efficient Similarity Patterns**
-
-```typescript
-// โ
Pattern 1: Find neighbors (much more efficient)
-const item = await brain.get('target-item-id')
-const neighbors = await brain.neural.neighbors(item.id, {
- limit: 10, // Top 10 most similar
- threshold: 0.7, // Minimum similarity
- includeScores: true // Include similarity scores
-})
-
-console.log(`Found ${neighbors.length} similar items`)
-
-// โ
Pattern 2: Batch similarity for specific pairs

-const similarities = await Promise.all(
- itemPairs.map(async ([a, b]) => ({
- from: a,
- to: b,
- score: await brain.neural.similar(a, b)
- }))
-)
-
-// โ
Pattern 3: Text-to-text similarity (no need for IDs)
-const textSimilarity = await brain.neural.similar(
- "Machine learning is fascinating",
- "AI and deep learning are interesting",
- { detailed: true } // Get explanation of similarity
-)
-
-console.log(`Similarity: ${textSimilarity.score}`)
-console.log(`Explanation: ${textSimilarity.explanation}`)
-
-// โ
Pattern 4: Vector-level similarity for optimization
-const vector1 = await brain.embed("First concept")
-const vector2 = await brain.embed("Second concept")
-const vectorSimilarity = await brain.neural.similar(vector1, vector2)
-```
-
-## ๐ฏ Clustering Patterns

- where: {
- createdAt: { $gte: Date.now() - 30 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000 } // Last 30 days
- },

- {
- items: techDocs.map(doc => doc.id),
- minClusterSize: 3, // Minimum items per cluster

- }
-)
-
-// โ
Pattern 3: Temporal clustering for time-series data
-const timebasedClusters = await brain.neural.clusterByTime(
- 'createdAt', // Time field

- {
- items: recentItems.map(item => item.id),
- overlap: 0.2, // 20% overlap between windows
- minPerWindow: 5 // Minimum items per time window
- }
-)

+# Query Operators (BFO)
+
+> Brainy Field Operators โ the complete reference for `where` filters in `find()`.
+
+All operators work with `find({ where: { ... } })` and filter on **metadata fields** (not `data`).
+
+---
+
+## Equality
+
+| Operator | Alias | Description | Example |
+|----------|-------|-------------|---------|
+| `equals` | `eq`, `is` | Exact match | `{ status: { equals: 'active' } }` |
+| `notEquals` | `ne`, `isNot` | Not equal | `{ status: { notEquals: 'deleted' } }` |
+
+**Shorthand:** A bare value is treated as `equals`:
+
+```typescript
+// These are equivalent:
+brain.find({ where: { status: 'active' } })
+brain.find({ where: { status: { equals: 'active' } } })
+```
+
+---
+
+## Comparison
+
+| Operator | Alias | Description | Example |
+|----------|-------|-------------|---------|
+| `greaterThan` | `gt` | Greater than | `{ age: { greaterThan: 18 } }` |
+| `greaterEqual` | `gte` | Greater or equal | `{ score: { greaterEqual: 90 } }` |
+| `lessThan` | `lt` | Less than | `{ price: { lessThan: 100 } }` |
+| `lessEqual` | `lte` | Less or equal | `{ rating: { lessEqual: 3 } }` |
+| `between` | โ | Inclusive range `[min, max]` | `{ year: { between: [2020, 2025] } }` |
+
+```typescript
+// Range query
+const recent = await brain.find({
+ where: {
+ createdAt: { between: [Date.now() - 86400000, Date.now()] }
+ }
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Array / Set
+
+| Operator | Alias | Description | Example |
+|----------|-------|-------------|---------|
+| `oneOf` | `in` | Value is one of the given options | `{ color: { oneOf: ['red', 'blue'] } }` |
+| `noneOf` | โ | Value is NOT one of the given options | `{ status: { noneOf: ['deleted', 'archived'] } }` |
+| `contains` | โ | Array field contains value | `{ tags: { contains: 'ai' } }` |
+| `excludes` | โ | Array field does NOT contain value | `{ tags: { excludes: 'spam' } }` |
+| `hasAll` | โ | Array field contains ALL listed values | `{ skills: { hasAll: ['js', 'ts'] } }` |
+
+```typescript
+// Find entities tagged with 'ai'
+const aiEntities = await brain.find({
+ where: { tags: { contains: 'ai' } }
+})
+
+// Find entities of specific types
+const people = await brain.find({
+ where: { noun: { oneOf: ['Person', 'Agent'] } }
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Existence
+
+| Operator | Description | Example |
+|----------|-------------|---------|
+| `exists: true` | Field exists (has any value) | `{ email: { exists: true } }` |
+| `exists: false` | Field does NOT exist | `{ email: { exists: false } }` |
+| `missing: true` | Field does NOT exist (alias for `exists: false`) | `{ email: { missing: true } }` |
+| `missing: false` | Field exists (alias for `exists: true`) | `{ email: { missing: false } }` |
+
+```typescript
+// Find entities that have an email field
+const withEmail = await brain.find({
+ where: { email: { exists: true } }
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Pattern (In-Memory Only)
+
+These operators work via the in-memory filter path. They are applied **after** the indexed query, so use them with other indexed operators for best performance.
+
+| Operator | Description | Example |
+|----------|-------------|---------|
+| `matches` | Regex or string pattern match | `{ name: { matches: /^Dr\./ } }` |
+| `startsWith` | String prefix | `{ name: { startsWith: 'John' } }` |
+| `endsWith` | String suffix | `{ email: { endsWith: '@gmail.com' } }` |
+
+```typescript
+const doctors = await brain.find({
+ where: {
+ type: NounType.Person, // Indexed โ fast
+ name: { startsWith: 'Dr.' } // In-memory โ applied after
+ }
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Logical
+
+Combine multiple conditions:
+
+| Operator | Description | Example |
+|----------|-------------|---------|
+| `allOf` | ALL sub-filters must match (AND) | `{ allOf: [{ status: 'active' }, { role: 'admin' }] }` |
+| `anyOf` | ANY sub-filter must match (OR) | `{ anyOf: [{ role: 'admin' }, { role: 'owner' }] }` |
+| `not` | Invert a filter | `{ not: { status: 'deleted' } }` |
+
+```typescript
+// Complex OR query
+const adminsOrOwners = await brain.find({
+ where: {
+ anyOf: [
+ { role: 'admin' },
+ { role: 'owner' }
+ ]
+ }
+})
+
+// NOT query
+const notDeleted = await brain.find({
+ where: {
+ not: { status: 'deleted' }
+ }
+})
+
+// Combined AND + OR
+const results = await brain.find({
+ where: {
+ allOf: [
+ { department: 'engineering' },
+ { anyOf: [
+ { level: 'senior' },
+ { yearsExperience: { greaterThan: 5 } }
+ ]}
+ ]
+ }
+})
+```
+
+---
+
+## Indexed vs In-Memory Operators
+
+Brainy's MetadataIndex supports a subset of operators natively for O(1) field lookups. Other operators fall back to in-memory filtering.
+
+| Operator | MetadataIndex (Indexed) | In-Memory Fallback |
+|----------|:-----------------------:|:------------------:|
+| `equals` / `eq` | Yes | Yes |
+| `notEquals` / `ne` | โ | Yes |
+| `greaterThan` / `gt` | Yes | Yes |
+| `greaterEqual` / `gte` | Yes | Yes |
+| `lessThan` / `lt` | Yes | Yes |
+| `lessEqual` / `lte` | Yes | Yes |
+| `between` | Yes | Yes |
+| `oneOf` / `in` | Yes | Yes |
+| `noneOf` | โ | Yes |
+| `contains` | Yes | Yes |
+| `exists` / `missing` | Yes | Yes |
+| `matches` | โ | Yes |
+| `startsWith` | โ | Yes |
+| `endsWith` | โ | Yes |
+| `allOf` | Partial | Yes |
+| `anyOf` | Partial | Yes |
+| `not` | โ | Yes |
+
+**Performance tip:** Combine indexed operators (equals, greaterThan, oneOf, between, contains, exists) with pattern operators for optimal speed โ the index narrows results first, then patterns filter in memory.
+
+---
+
+## Practical Examples
+
+### Filter by entity type
+
+```typescript
+// Using the type shorthand (recommended)
+brain.find({ type: NounType.Person })
+
+// Using where.noun directly
+brain.find({ where: { noun: NounType.Person } })
+
+// Multiple types
+brain.find({ type: [NounType.Person, NounType.Agent] })
+```
+
+### Combine semantic search with filters
+
+```typescript
+const results = await brain.find({
+ query: 'machine learning engineer', // Semantic search (on data)
+ type: NounType.Person, // Type filter (indexed)
+ where: {
+ department: 'engineering', // Exact match (indexed)
+ yearsExperience: { greaterThan: 3 } // Range filter (indexed)
+ },
+ limit: 10
+})
+```
+
+### Temporal queries
+
+```typescript
+const lastWeek = Date.now() - 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000
+const recentEntities = await brain.find({
+ where: {
+ createdAt: { greaterThan: lastWeek }
+ },
+ orderBy: 'createdAt',
+ order: 'desc',
+ limit: 50
+})
+```
+
+### Graph + metadata combination
+
+```typescript
+const results = await brain.find({
+ connected: {
+ from: teamLeadId,
+ via: VerbType.WorksWith,
+ depth: 2
+ },
+ where: {
+ role: { oneOf: ['engineer', 'designer'] },
+ active: true
+ }
+})
+```

-# Brainy Validation System
-
-## Zero-Config Philosophy
-
-Brainy's validation system automatically adapts to your system resources without any configuration. It enforces universal truths while dynamically adjusting limits based on available memory and observed performance.
-
-## Core Principles
-
-### 1. Universal Truths Only
-We only validate things that are mathematically or logically impossible:
-- Negative pagination values (there's no page -1)
-- Probabilities outside 0-1 range
-- Self-referential relationships
-- Invalid enum values
-
-### 2. Auto-Configuration
-The system automatically configures based on:
-- **Available Memory**: More RAM = higher limits
-- **System Performance**: Adjusts based on query response times
-- **Usage Patterns**: Learns from your actual workload
-
-### 3. Performance Monitoring
-Every query is monitored to tune future limits:
-```typescript
-// Automatic adjustment based on performance
-if (avgQueryTime < 100ms && resultCount > 80% of limit) {
- // Increase limits - system can handle more
- maxLimit *= 1.5
-} else if (avgQueryTime > 1000ms) {
- // Reduce limits - system is struggling
- maxLimit *= 0.8
-}
-```
-
-## Validation Rules by Method
-
-### `add(params: AddParams)`
-
-**Required:**
-- Either `data` or `vector` must be provided
-- `type` must be a valid NounType enum
-
-**Constraints:**
-- `vector` must have exactly 384 dimensions (for all-MiniLM-L6-v2)
-- Custom `id` must be unique
-
-**Example:**
-```typescript
-// โ
Valid
-await brain.add({
- data: "Hello world",
- type: NounType.Document
-})
-
-// โ
Valid - pre-computed vector
-await brain.add({
- vector: new Array(384).fill(0),
- type: NounType.Document
-})
-
-// โ Invalid - missing both data and vector
-await brain.add({
- type: NounType.Document
-})
-// Error: "must provide either data or vector"
-
-// โ Invalid - wrong vector dimensions
-await brain.add({
- vector: new Array(100).fill(0),
- type: NounType.Document
-})
-// Error: "vector must have exactly 384 dimensions"
-```
-
-### `update(params: UpdateParams)`
-
-**Required:**
-- `id` must be provided
-- At least one field must be updated
-
-**Important Metadata Behavior:**
-- `metadata: null` with `merge: false` โ **Keeps existing metadata** (does nothing)
-- `metadata: {}` with `merge: false` โ **Clears metadata** โ
-- `metadata: undefined` โ No change to metadata
-
-**Example:**
-```typescript
-// โ
Valid - update metadata
-await brain.update({
- id: "xyz",
- metadata: { status: "published" }
-})
-
-// โ
Valid - clear metadata properly
-await brain.update({
- id: "xyz",
- metadata: {},
- merge: false
-})
-
-// โ Invalid - null doesn't clear metadata
-await brain.update({
- id: "xyz",
- metadata: null,
- merge: false
-})
-// Error: "must specify at least one field to update"
-// (because null metadata doesn't actually update anything)
-
-// โ Invalid - no fields to update
-await brain.update({
- id: "xyz"
-})
-// Error: "must specify at least one field to update"
-```
-
-### `relate(params: RelateParams)`
-
-**Required:**
-- `from` entity ID
-- `to` entity ID
-- `type` must be valid VerbType enum
-
-**Constraints:**
-- `from` and `to` must be different (no self-loops)
-- `weight` must be between 0 and 1
-
-**Example:**
-```typescript
-// โ
Valid
-await brain.relate({
- from: "entity1",
- to: "entity2",
- type: VerbType.RelatedTo
-})
-
-// โ Invalid - self-referential
-await brain.relate({
- from: "entity1",
- to: "entity1",
- type: VerbType.RelatedTo
-})
-// Error: "cannot create self-referential relationship"
-
-// โ Invalid - weight out of range
-await brain.relate({
- from: "entity1",
- to: "entity2",
- type: VerbType.RelatedTo,
- weight: 1.5
-})
-// Error: "weight must be between 0 and 1"
-```
-
-### `find(params: FindParams)`
-
-**Constraints:**
-- `limit` must be non-negative and below auto-configured maximum
-- `offset` must be non-negative
-- Cannot specify both `query` and `vector` (mutually exclusive)
-- Cannot use both `cursor` and `offset` pagination
-- `threshold` must be between 0 and 1
-
-**Auto-Configured Limits:**
-```typescript
-// Based on available memory
-// 1GB RAM โ max limit: 10,000
-// 8GB RAM โ max limit: 80,000
-// 16GB RAM โ max limit: 100,000 (capped)
-
-// Query length also scales with memory
-// 1GB RAM โ max query: 5,000 characters
-// 8GB RAM โ max query: 40,000 characters
-```
-
-**Example:**
-```typescript
-// โ
Valid
-await brain.find({
- query: "machine learning",
- limit: 50
-})
-
-// โ Invalid - negative limit
-await brain.find({
- query: "test",
- limit: -1
-})
-// Error: "limit must be non-negative"
-
-// โ Invalid - both query and vector
-await brain.find({
- query: "test",
- vector: new Array(384).fill(0)
-})
-// Error: "cannot specify both query and vector - they are mutually exclusive"
-
-// โ Invalid - exceeds auto-configured limit
-await brain.find({
- limit: 1000000
-})
-// Error: "limit exceeds auto-configured maximum of 80000 (based on available memory)"
-```
-
-## Auto-Configuration Details
-
-### Memory-Based Scaling
-
-The validation system checks available memory on initialization:
-
-```typescript
-const availableMemory = os.freemem()
-
-// Scale limits based on available memory
-maxLimit = Math.min(
- 100000, // Absolute maximum for safety
- Math.floor(availableMemory / (1024 * 1024 * 100)) * 1000
-)
-
-// Scale query length similarly
-maxQueryLength = Math.min(
- 50000,
- Math.floor(availableMemory / (1024 * 1024 * 10)) * 1000
-)
-```
-
-### Performance-Based Tuning
-
-The system continuously monitors and adjusts:
-
-1. **After each query**, performance is recorded
-2. **Limits adjust** based on response times
-3. **Gradual optimization** towards optimal throughput
-
-### Checking Current Configuration
-
-You can inspect the current validation configuration:
-
-```typescript
-import { getValidationConfig } from '@soulcraft/brainy/validation'
-
-const config = getValidationConfig()
-console.log(config)
-// {
-// maxLimit: 80000,
-// maxQueryLength: 40000,
-// maxVectorDimensions: 384,
-// systemMemory: 17179869184,
-// availableMemory: 8589934592
-// }
-```
-
-## Best Practices
-
-### 1. Clearing Metadata
-```typescript
-// โ Wrong - doesn't clear
-await brain.update({ id, metadata: null, merge: false })
-
-// โ
Correct - actually clears
-await brain.update({ id, metadata: {}, merge: false })
-```
-
-### 2. Type Safety
-```typescript
-// โ Wrong - string type
-await brain.add({ data: "test", type: "document" })
-
-// โ
Correct - enum type
-import { NounType } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-await brain.add({ data: "test", type: NounType.Document })
-```
-
-### 3. Pagination
-```typescript
-// โ
Let the system auto-configure limits
-const results = await brain.find({
- query: "test",
- limit: 100 // Will be capped at system maximum
-})
-
-// โ
For large datasets, use pagination
-let offset = 0
-const pageSize = 1000
-while (true) {
- const results = await brain.find({
- query: "test",
- limit: pageSize,
- offset
- })
- if (results.length === 0) break
- offset += pageSize
-}
-```
-
-## Error Messages
-
-All validation errors are descriptive and actionable:
-
-| Error | Cause | Solution |
-|-------|-------|----------|
-| `"must provide either data or vector"` | Missing content in add() | Provide either data to embed or pre-computed vector |
-| `"limit must be non-negative"` | Negative pagination | Use positive limit value |
-| `"invalid NounType: xyz"` | Invalid enum value | Use valid NounType enum |
-| `"cannot create self-referential relationship"` | from === to | Use different entity IDs |
-| `"must specify at least one field to update"` | Empty update | Provide at least one field to change |
-| `"vector must have exactly 384 dimensions"` | Wrong vector size | Use 384-dimensional vectors |
-
-## Performance Impact
-
-The validation system adds minimal overhead:
-- **Validation time**: <1ms per operation
-- **Memory usage**: ~1KB for configuration tracking
-- **Auto-tuning**: Happens asynchronously, no blocking
-
-## FAQ
-
-**Q: Why can't I set metadata to null?**
-A: Setting metadata to `null` with `merge: false` doesn't actually clear it - it falls back to existing metadata. Use `{}` to clear.
-
-**Q: Why are my limits being reduced?**
-A: If queries are taking >1 second, the system automatically reduces limits to maintain performance.
-
-**Q: Can I override the auto-configured limits?**
-A: No, this is by design. The system knows better than static configuration what your hardware can handle.
-
-**Q: Why exactly 384 dimensions for vectors?**
-A: Brainy uses the all-MiniLM-L6-v2 model which produces 384-dimensional embeddings. This ensures consistency.
-
-## Summary
-
-Brainy's validation system:
-- โ
**Zero configuration** - adapts to your system
-- โ
**Universal truths** - only prevents impossible operations
-- โ
**Performance aware** - adjusts based on actual performance
-- โ
**Type safe** - enforces enum types
-- โ
**Minimal overhead** - <1ms validation time
-- โ
**Clear errors** - actionable error messages
-
-The philosophy is simple: prevent impossible operations, adapt to reality, and get out of the way.

-# ๐ Brainy Zero-Configuration Guide
-
-## Overview
-
-Starting with v2.10, Brainy introduces a **Zero-Configuration System** that automatically configures everything based on your environment. No more environment variables, no more complex configuration objects - just create and use.
-
-## Quick Start
-
-### True Zero Config
-```typescript
-import { Brainy } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-// That's it! Everything auto-configures
-const brain = new Brainy()
-await brain.init()
-```
-
-### Using Strongly-Typed Presets
-
-```typescript
-import { Brainy, PresetName } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-// Type-safe preset selection
-const brain = new Brainy(PresetName.PRODUCTION)
-await brain.init()
-```
-
-### Common Scenarios
-
-#### Development
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy(PresetName.DEVELOPMENT)
-// โ
Filesystem storage for persistence
-// โ
FP32 models for best quality
-// โ
Verbose logging
-// โ
All features enabled
-```
-
-#### Production
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy(PresetName.PRODUCTION)
-// โ
Disk storage for persistence
-// โ
Auto-selected model precision
-// โ
Silent logging
-// โ
Optimized features
-```
-
-#### Minimal
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy(PresetName.MINIMAL)
-// โ
Filesystem storage
-// โ
Q8 models for small size
-// โ
Core features only
-// โ
Minimal resource usage
-```
-
-## Distributed Architecture Presets
-
-Brainy includes specialized presets for distributed and microservice architectures:
-
-### Basic Distributed Roles
-```typescript
-import { Brainy, PresetName } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-// Write-only instance (data ingestion)
-const writer = new Brainy(PresetName.WRITER)
-// โ
Optimized for writes
-// โ
No search index loading
-// โ
Minimal memory usage
-
-// Read-only instance (search API)
-const reader = new Brainy(PresetName.READER)
-// โ
Optimized for search
-// โ
Lazy index loading
-// โ
Large cache
-```
-
-### Service-Specific Presets
-```typescript
-// High-throughput data ingestion
-const ingestion = new Brainy(PresetName.INGESTION_SERVICE)
-
-// Low-latency search API
-const searchApi = new Brainy(PresetName.SEARCH_API)
-
-// Analytics processing
-const analytics = new Brainy(PresetName.ANALYTICS_SERVICE)
-
-// Edge location cache
-const edge = new Brainy(PresetName.EDGE_CACHE)
-
-// Batch processing
-const batch = new Brainy(PresetName.BATCH_PROCESSOR)
-
-// Real-time streaming
-const streaming = new Brainy(PresetName.STREAMING_SERVICE)
-
-// ML training
-const training = new Brainy(PresetName.ML_TRAINING)
-
-// Lightweight sidecar
-const sidecar = new Brainy(PresetName.SIDECAR)
-```
-
-## Model Precision Control
-
-You can **explicitly specify** model precision when needed:
-
-```typescript
-import { ModelPrecision } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-// Force FP32 (full precision)
-const brain = new Brainy({ model: ModelPrecision.FP32 })
-
-// Force Q8 (quantized, smaller)
-const brain = new Brainy({ model: ModelPrecision.Q8 })
-
-// Use presets
-const brain = new Brainy({ model: ModelPrecision.FAST }) // Maps to fp32
-const brain = new Brainy({ model: ModelPrecision.SMALL }) // Maps to q8
-
-// Auto-detection (default)
-const brain = new Brainy({ model: ModelPrecision.AUTO })
-```
-
-### Auto-Detection Logic
-
-When not specified, Brainy automatically selects the best model:
-
-- **Browser**: Q8 (smaller download)
-- **Serverless**: Q8 (faster cold starts)
-- **Low Memory (<512MB)**: Q8
-- **Development**: FP32 (best quality)
-- **Production (>2GB RAM)**: FP32
-- **Default**: Q8 (balanced)
-
-## Storage Configuration
-
-### Automatic Storage Detection
-
-Brainy automatically detects the best storage option:
-
-1. **Cloud Storage** (if credentials found)
- - AWS S3 (checks AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID, AWS_PROFILE)
- - Google Cloud Storage (checks GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS)
- - Cloudflare R2 (checks R2_ACCESS_KEY_ID)
-
-2. **Browser Storage**
- - OPFS (if supported)
- - Filesystem fallback
-
-3. **Node.js Storage**
- - Filesystem (`./brainy-data` or `~/.brainy/data`)
-
-### Manual Storage Control
-
-```typescript
-import { StorageOption } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-// Force specific storage with enum
-const brain = new Brainy({ storage: StorageOption.DISK })
-const brain = new Brainy({ storage: StorageOption.CLOUD })
-const brain = new Brainy({ storage: StorageOption.AUTO })
-
-// Custom storage configuration
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: {
- s3Storage: {
- bucket: 'my-bucket',
- region: 'us-east-1'
- }
- }
-})
-```
-
-## Feature Sets
-
-Control which features are enabled:
-
-```typescript
-import { FeatureSet } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-// Preset feature sets with enum
-const brain = new Brainy({ features: FeatureSet.MINIMAL }) // Core only
-const brain = new Brainy({ features: FeatureSet.DEFAULT }) // Balanced
-const brain = new Brainy({ features: FeatureSet.FULL }) // Everything
-
-// Custom features
-const brain = new Brainy({
- features: ['core', 'search', 'cache', 'triple-intelligence']
-})
-```
-
-## Simplified Configuration Interface
-
-The new configuration is dramatically simpler:
-
-```typescript
-interface BrainyZeroConfig {
- // Mode preset - now with distributed options
- mode?: PresetName // All strongly typed presets
-
- // Model configuration with enum
- model?: ModelPrecision
-
- // Storage configuration with enum
- storage?: StorageOption | StorageConfig
-
- // Feature set with enum
- features?: FeatureSet | string[]
-
- // Logging
- verbose?: boolean
-
- // Escape hatch for advanced users
- advanced?: any
-}
-```
-
-### Available Enums
-
-```typescript
-enum PresetName {
- // Basic
- PRODUCTION = 'production',
- DEVELOPMENT = 'development',
- MINIMAL = 'minimal',
- ZERO = 'zero',
-
- // Distributed
- WRITER = 'writer',
- READER = 'reader',
-
- // Services
- INGESTION_SERVICE = 'ingestion-service',
- SEARCH_API = 'search-api',
- ANALYTICS_SERVICE = 'analytics-service',
- EDGE_CACHE = 'edge-cache',
- BATCH_PROCESSOR = 'batch-processor',
- STREAMING_SERVICE = 'streaming-service',
- ML_TRAINING = 'ml-training',
- SIDECAR = 'sidecar'
-}
-
-enum ModelPrecision {
- FP32 = 'fp32',
- Q8 = 'q8',
- AUTO = 'auto',
- FAST = 'fast', // Maps to fp32
- SMALL = 'small' // Maps to q8
-}
-
-enum StorageOption {
- AUTO = 'auto',
- DISK = 'disk',
- CLOUD = 'cloud'
-}
-
-enum FeatureSet {
- MINIMAL = 'minimal',
- DEFAULT = 'default',
- FULL = 'full'
-}
-```
-
-## Multi-Instance with Shared Storage
-
-When multiple Brainy instances connect to the same storage (like S3), you **must ensure they use compatible configurations**:
-
-```typescript
-import { ModelPrecision } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-// Container A - Writer
-const writer = new Brainy({
- mode: PresetName.WRITER,
- model: ModelPrecision.FP32, // โ ๏ธ MUST match across instances!
- storage: { s3Storage: { bucket: 'shared-data' }}
-})
-
-// Container B - Reader
-const reader = new Brainy({
- mode: PresetName.READER,
- model: ModelPrecision.FP32, // โ
Matches Container A
- storage: { s3Storage: { bucket: 'shared-data' }}
-})
-```
-
-### Distributed Architecture Example
-
-```typescript
-// Ingestion Service (Writer)
-const ingestion = new Brainy({
- mode: PresetName.INGESTION_SERVICE,
- model: ModelPrecision.Q8, // All instances must use Q8
- storage: { s3Storage: { bucket: 'production-data' }}
-})
-
-// Search API (Reader)
-const search = new Brainy({
- mode: PresetName.SEARCH_API,
- model: ModelPrecision.Q8, // Matches ingestion service
- storage: { s3Storage: { bucket: 'production-data' }}
-})
-
-// Analytics (Hybrid)
-const analytics = new Brainy({
- mode: PresetName.ANALYTICS_SERVICE,
- model: ModelPrecision.Q8, // Matches other services
- storage: { s3Storage: { bucket: 'production-data' }}
-})
-```
-
-## Migration from Old Configuration
-
-### Before (Complex)
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({
- hnsw: {
- M: 16,
- efConstruction: 200,
- seed: 42
- },
- storage: {
- s3Storage: {
- bucketName: 'my-bucket',
- accessKeyId: process.env.AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID,
- secretAccessKey: process.env.AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY,
- region: 'us-east-1'
- },
- cacheConfig: {
- hotCacheMaxSize: 5000,
- hotCacheEvictionThreshold: 0.8,
- warmCacheTTL: 3600000,
- batchSize: 100
- }
- },
- cache: {
- autoTune: true,
- autoTuneInterval: 60000,
- hotCacheMaxSize: 10000
- },
- embeddingFunction: customFunction,
- readOnly: false,
- logging: { verbose: true }
-})
-```
-
-### After (Simple)
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy('production')
-// Everything above is auto-configured!
-```
-
-## Environment Variables (No Longer Needed!)
-
-These environment variables are **no longer required**:
-
-- โ `BRAINY_ALLOW_REMOTE_MODELS` - Models auto-download when needed
-- โ `BRAINY_MODELS_PATH` - Path auto-selected based on environment
-- โ `BRAINY_Q8_CONFIRMED` - Warnings auto-suppressed in production
-- โ `BRAINY_LOG_LEVEL` - Auto-set based on NODE_ENV
-- โ AWS credentials - Use AWS SDK credential chain
-
-## Performance Impact
-
-The zero-config system has **zero performance overhead**:
-
-- Configuration happens once during initialization
-- Auto-detected values are cached
-- Same optimized code paths as manual configuration
-- Actually **faster** startup due to reduced parsing
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Models Not Downloading
-- Check internet connection
-- Ensure firewall allows HTTPS to Hugging Face / CDN
-- Run `npm run download-models` to pre-download
-
-### Wrong Model Precision
-- Explicitly specify: `{ model: 'fp32' }` or `{ model: 'q8' }`
-- Check shared storage compatibility
-
-### Storage Detection Issues
-- Check cloud credentials are properly configured
-- Verify write permissions for filesystem paths
-- Use explicit storage configuration if needed
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Use zero-config for single instances** - Let Brainy handle everything
-2. **Specify precision for shared storage** - Ensure compatibility
-3. **Use presets for common scenarios** - 'development', 'production', 'minimal'
-4. **Override only what you need** - Start simple, add complexity only if required
-
-## Summary
-
-The new zero-config system reduces configuration from **100+ parameters** to **0-3 decisions**:
-
-| Scenario | Old Config Lines | New Config Lines |
-|----------|-----------------|------------------|
-| Development | 50+ | 1 |
-| Production | 100+ | 1 |
-| Custom | 200+ | 3-5 |
-
-**Result**: 95% less configuration, 100% of the power! ๐

-## Core Operations
-
-### `brain.add()` - Adding Entities
-
-**Returns:** `Promise` - The ID of the created entity
-
-```typescript
-// โ
Correct usage - add() returns the ID string directly
-const id = await brain.add({
- type: 'document',
- data: 'My document content'
-})
-
-console.log('Created entity with ID:', id)
-
-// Use the ID to create relationships
-await brain.relate({

-})
-```
-
-```typescript

-})
-
-console.log(result.id) // โ undefined - result IS the ID, not an object!
-```
-
-### Getting the Full Entity
-
-If you need the full entity object after creation, use `brain.get()`:
-
-```typescript
-// Add entity and get its ID
-const id = await brain.add({
- type: 'document',
- data: 'My content',
- metadata: { label: 'Important Doc' }
-})
-
-// Get the full entity
-const entity = await brain.get(id)
-console.log(entity.id) // The ID
-console.log(entity.type) // 'document'
-console.log(entity.data) // 'My content'
-console.log(entity.metadata) // { label: 'Important Doc', ... }
-console.log(entity.vector) // The embedding vector
-console.log(entity.createdAt) // Timestamp
-```
-
-### `brain.find()` - Finding Entities
-
-**Returns:** `Promise` - Array of full entity objects
-
-```typescript
-const entities = await brain.find({
- query: 'machine learning',
- limit: 10
-})
-
-// Each entity has full information
-for (const entity of entities) {
- console.log(entity.id)
- console.log(entity.type)
- console.log(entity.data)
- console.log(entity.metadata)
-}
-```
-
-### `brain.relate()` - Creating Relationships
-
-**Returns:** `Promise` - The ID of the created relationship
-
-```typescript
-const relationId = await brain.relate({
- from: entityId1,
- to: entityId2,
- type: 'references'
-})
-
-console.log('Created relationship with ID:', relationId)
-```
-
-## Data Field Behavior
-
-### String Data - Used for Embeddings
-
-When `data` is a string, it's used to generate embeddings for semantic search:
-
-```typescript
-await brain.add({
- type: 'document',
- data: 'This text will be converted to an embedding vector',
- metadata: {
- title: 'My Document',
- year: 2024
- }
-})
-```
-
-### Object Data - Structured Information
-
-When `data` is an object, it's treated as structured data:
-
-```typescript
-await brain.add({
- type: 'product',
- data: {
- name: 'Widget',
- price: 29.99,
- category: 'Tools'
- },
- vector: precomputedVector // Must provide vector when using object data
-})
-```
-
-**Important:** If you provide object data without a `vector`, you must include a string somewhere for embedding generation, or the operation will fail.
-
-### Metadata vs Data
-
-- **`data`**: Primary content - used for embeddings (if string) or stored as structured data (if object)
-- **`metadata`**: Auxiliary information - always stored as structured data, used for filtering
-
-**Best practice for labels:**
-```typescript
-await brain.add({
- type: 'document',
- data: 'The full text content of the document...', // For semantic search
- metadata: {
- label: 'Quick Reference Label', // For display
- author: 'John Doe',
- category: 'Technical'
- }
-})
-```
-
-## Summary
-
-| Method | Returns | Contains |

-
-## Initialization
-
-```typescript
-import { Brainy, NounType, VerbType } from '@soulcraft/brainy'
-
-// Zero-config (just works)
-const brain = new Brainy()
-await brain.init()
-
-// With configuration
-const brain = new Brainy({
- storage: { type: 'memory' }, // or { path: './my-data' } for filesystem

-
-### `brain.ready` - Await Initialization
-
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy()

-await brain.ready // Wait until init() completes
-const results = await brain.find({ query: 'test' })
-```
-
-### `brain.isInitialized` - Check Basic Readiness
-
-```typescript
-if (brain.isInitialized) {
- // Safe to use brain methods
-}
-```
-
-### `brain.isFullyInitialized()` - Check Background Tasks
-
-```typescript
-// Returns true when ALL initialization is complete, including background tasks
-// Useful for cloud storage adapters with progressive initialization
-if (brain.isFullyInitialized()) {
- console.log('All background tasks complete')
-}
-```
-
-### `brain.awaitBackgroundInit()` - Wait for Background Tasks
-
-```typescript
-const brain = new Brainy({ storage: { type: 'gcs', ... } })
-await brain.init() // Fast return in cloud (<200ms)
-
-// Optional: wait for all background tasks (bucket validation, count sync)
-await brain.awaitBackgroundInit()

-# Brainy Neural API Surface Design
-
-## ๐ฏ **Clean API Hierarchy**
-
-### **Main Class Shortcuts (Simple & Common)**
-```typescript
-// High-level shortcuts on Brainy - most common operations
-brain.similar(a, b, options?) // โ
Keep - very common
-brain.clusters(items?, options?) // โ
Keep - very common
-brain.related(id, options?) // โ
Keep - common (like neighbors but simpler name)
-
-// Remove/deprecate confusing shortcuts
-brain.visualize(options?) // โ Remove - too specialized for main class
-```
-
-### **Neural Namespace (Full Featured)**
-```typescript
-// Core semantic operations
-brain.neural.similar(a, b, options?) // Comprehensive similarity
-brain.neural.clusters(items?, options?) // Smart clustering with auto-routing
-brain.neural.neighbors(id, options?) // K-nearest neighbors (full featured)
-brain.neural.hierarchy(id, options?) // Semantic hierarchy building
-brain.neural.outliers(options?) // Anomaly detection
-brain.neural.visualize(options?) // Visualization data generation
-
-// Advanced clustering methods
-brain.neural.clusterByDomain(field, options?) // Domain-aware clustering
-brain.neural.clusterByTime(field, windows, options?) // Temporal clustering
-brain.neural.clusterStream(options?) // Streaming/real-time clustering
-brain.neural.updateClusters(items, options?) // Incremental clustering
-
-// Utility methods
-brain.neural.getPerformanceMetrics(operation?) // Performance monitoring
-brain.neural.clearCaches() // Cache management
-brain.neural.getCacheStats() // Cache statistics
-```
-
-## ๐ **Private Methods (Internal Implementation)**
-
-### **Should NOT be exposed publicly:**
-```typescript
-// These are implementation details:
-brain.neural._clusterFast() // โ Private - use clusters() with algorithm: 'hierarchical'
-brain.neural._clusterLarge() // โ Private - use clusters() with algorithm: 'sample'
-brain.neural._performHierarchicalClustering() // โ Private - internal routing
-brain.neural._performKMeansClustering() // โ Private - internal routing
-brain.neural._performDBSCANClustering() // โ Private - internal routing
-brain.neural._performSampledClustering() // โ Private - internal routing
-brain.neural._routeClusteringAlgorithm() // โ Private - internal routing
-brain.neural._similarityById() // โ Private - internal routing
-brain.neural._similarityByVector() // โ Private - internal routing
-brain.neural._similarityByText() // โ Private - internal routing
-brain.neural._isId() // โ Private - utility
-brain.neural._isVector() // โ Private - utility
-brain.neural._convertToVector() // โ Private - utility
-brain.neural._cacheResult() // โ Private - caching
-brain.neural._trackPerformance() // โ Private - monitoring
-```
-
-### **Current Issues in brain-cloud explorer:**
-```typescript
-// โ BAD: Accessing private implementation details
-brain.neural.clusterFast({ maxClusters: count, level: 2 })
-
-// โ
GOOD: Use public API with proper options
-brain.neural.clusters({ algorithm: 'hierarchical', maxClusters: count, level: 2 })
-```
-
-## ๐ **API Consistency Fixes**
-
-### **Method Naming Standardization:**
-```typescript
-// โ
CONSISTENT: Pick one naming pattern and stick to it
-brain.neural.similar() // Main method name
-brain.similar() // Shortcut matches
-
-// โ INCONSISTENT: Don't mix these
-brain.neural.similarity() // Different from shortcut
-brain.similar()
-```
-
-### **Parameter Patterns:**
-```typescript
-// โ
CONSISTENT: Always (data, options?) pattern
-brain.neural.similar(a, b, options?)
-brain.neural.clusters(items?, options?)
-brain.neural.neighbors(id, options?)
-brain.neural.hierarchy(id, options?)
-
-// Options should be objects with clear properties
-interface ClusteringOptions {
- algorithm?: 'auto' | 'hierarchical' | 'kmeans' | 'dbscan'
- maxClusters?: number
- threshold?: number
- // ...
-}
-```
-
-### **Return Type Consistency:**
-```typescript
-// โ
CONSISTENT: All clustering methods return SemanticCluster[]
-brain.neural.clusters() โ Promise
-brain.neural.clusterByDomain() โ Promise // extends SemanticCluster
-brain.neural.clusterByTime() โ Promise // extends SemanticCluster
-
-// โ
CONSISTENT: All similarity methods return number or SimilarityResult
-brain.neural.similar() โ Promise
-brain.similar() โ Promise // Shortcut always returns simple number
-```
-
-## ๐ **Performance & Intelligence Routing**
-
-### **Auto-Algorithm Selection:**
-```typescript
-// Smart routing based on data size and characteristics
-brain.neural.clusters() // Auto-selects:
-// < 100 items โ hierarchical (fast, accurate)
-// < 1000 items โ k-means (balanced)
-// > 1000 items โ sampling (scalable)
-
-// Manual override available
-brain.neural.clusters({ algorithm: 'hierarchical' }) // Force specific algorithm
-```
-
-### **Caching Strategy:**
-```typescript
-// Intelligent caching with LRU eviction
-brain.neural.similar('id1', 'id2') // First call: compute & cache
-brain.neural.similar('id1', 'id2') // Second call: instant cache hit
-
-// Cache management
-brain.neural.clearCaches() // Manual cache clear
-brain.neural.getCacheStats() // Monitor cache performance
-```
-
-## ๐ **Documentation Structure**
-
-### **Main Documentation Sections:**
-1. **Quick Start**: Simple examples using shortcuts (`brain.similar()`, `brain.clusters()`)
-2. **Neural API Guide**: Comprehensive examples using `brain.neural.*`
-3. **Advanced Clustering**: Domain, temporal, streaming clustering
-4. **Performance**: Caching, algorithm selection, monitoring
-5. **API Reference**: Complete method documentation
-
-### **Example Progression:**
-```typescript
-// 1. BEGINNER: Simple shortcuts
-const similarity = await brain.similar('text1', 'text2')
-const clusters = await brain.clusters()
-
-// 2. INTERMEDIATE: Neural API with options
-const detailed = await brain.neural.similar('id1', 'id2', { detailed: true })
-const customClusters = await brain.neural.clusters({ algorithm: 'hierarchical', maxClusters: 5 })
-
-// 3. ADVANCED: Specialized clustering
-const domainClusters = await brain.neural.clusterByDomain('category')
-const streamingClusters = brain.neural.clusterStream({ batchSize: 50 })
-```
-
-## โ
**Implementation Checklist**
-
-### **High Priority:**

-# Brainy Metadata Architecture & Namespacing
-
-## The Problem ๐จ
-We're mixing internal Brainy fields with user metadata, causing:
-1. **Namespace collisions** - User's `deleted` field conflicts with our soft-delete
-2. **API confusion** - Users see internal fields they shouldn't care about
-3. **Security issues** - Users could manipulate internal fields
-4. **Augmentation conflicts** - 3rd party augmentations might overwrite our fields
-
-## Current Internal Fields Being Added
-
-### Core System Fields
-```javascript
-metadata = {
- // USER DATA
- name: "Django",
- type: "framework",
-
- // OUR INTERNAL FIELDS - COLLISION RISK!
- deleted: false, // Soft delete status
- domain: "tech", // Distributed mode domain
- domainMetadata: {}, // Domain-specific metadata
- partition: 0, // Partition for sharding
- createdAt: {...}, // GraphNoun timestamp
- updatedAt: {...}, // GraphNoun timestamp
- createdBy: {...}, // Who created this
- noun: "Concept", // NounType
- verb: "RELATES_TO", // VerbType (for relationships)
- isPlaceholder: true, // Write-only mode marker
- autoCreated: true, // Auto-created noun marker
- writeOnlyMode: true // High-speed streaming marker
-}
-```
-
-### Augmentation Fields
-```javascript
-// Good - neuralImport already uses underscore prefix!
-metadata._neuralProcessed = true
-metadata._neuralConfidence = 0.95
-metadata._detectedEntities = 5
-metadata._detectedRelationships = 3
-metadata._neuralInsights = [...]
-
-// Bad - direct modification
-metadata.importance = 0.8 // IntelligentVerbScoring
-```
-
-## Proposed Solution: Three-Tier Metadata
-
-### 1. User Metadata (Public)
-```javascript
-metadata = {
- // User's fields - completely untouched
- name: "Django",
- type: "framework",
- deleted: "2024-01-01", // User's own deleted field - no conflict!
- domain: "web", // User's domain field - no conflict!
-}
-```
-
-### 2. Internal Metadata (Protected)
-```javascript
-metadata._brainy = {
- // Core system fields - O(1) indexed
- deleted: false, // Our soft delete flag
- version: 2, // Metadata schema version
-
- // Distributed mode
- partition: 0,
- distributedDomain: "tech",
-
- // GraphNoun compliance
- nounType: "Concept",
- verbType: "RELATES_TO",
- createdAt: 1704067200000,
- updatedAt: 1704067200000,
- createdBy: "user:123",
-
- // Performance flags
- indexed: true,
- searchable: true,
- placeholder: false,
-
- // Storage optimization
- compressed: false,
- encrypted: false
-}
-```
-
-### 3. Augmentation Metadata (Semi-Protected)
-```javascript
-metadata._augmentations = {
- // Each augmentation gets its own namespace
- neuralImport: {
- processed: true,
- confidence: 0.95,
- entities: 5,
- relationships: 3
- },
-
- verbScoring: {
- contextScore: 0.7,
- importance: 0.8
- },
-
- // 3rd party augmentations
- customAug: {
- // Their fields isolated here
- }
-}
-```
-
-## Implementation Strategy
-
-### Phase 1: Core Fields โ
-```javascript
-// Already done with _brainy.deleted
-const BRAINY_NAMESPACE = '_brainy'
-const AUGMENTATION_NAMESPACE = '_augmentations'
-```
-
-### Phase 2: Migrate All Internal Fields
-```javascript
-// Before
-metadata.domain = "tech"
-metadata.partition = 0
-
-// After
-metadata._brainy.distributedDomain = "tech"
-metadata._brainy.partition = 0
-```
-
-### Phase 3: Augmentation API
-```javascript
-class Augmentation {
- // Read user metadata (read-only)
- getUserMetadata(metadata) {
- const { _brainy, _augmentations, ...userMeta } = metadata
- return userMeta // Clean user data only
- }
-
- // Write augmentation data (isolated)
- setAugmentationData(metadata, augName, data) {
- if (!metadata._augmentations) metadata._augmentations = {}
- metadata._augmentations[augName] = data
- }
-
- // Read internal fields (for special augmentations only)
- getInternalField(metadata, field) {
- return metadata._brainy?.[field]
- }
-}
-```
-
-## Benefits
-
-1. **No Collisions** - User can have any field names
-2. **O(1) Performance** - Internal fields still indexed
-3. **Clean API** - Users only see their data
-4. **Secure** - Internal fields protected
-5. **Extensible** - Augmentations isolated
-6. **Backward Compatible** - Migration path available
-
-## Query Impact
-
-### Before (Collision Risk)
-```javascript
-where: {
- deleted: false, // Ambiguous - ours or user's?
- type: "framework"
-}
-```
-
-### After (Clear Separation)
-```javascript
-where: {
- '_brainy.deleted': false, // Our soft delete
- type: "framework" // User's field
-}
-```
-
-## Performance Considerations
-
-- **Index on `_brainy.deleted`**: O(1) hash lookup โ
-- **Index on `_brainy.partition`**: O(1) for sharding โ
-- **Nested field access**: Modern DBs handle this efficiently โ
-- **Storage overhead**: ~100 bytes per item (acceptable) โ
-
-## Migration Path
-
-1. **New items**: Automatically use namespaced fields
-2. **Existing items**: Lazy migration on update
-3. **Queries**: Support both formats temporarily
-4. **Deprecation**: Remove old format in v3.0
-
-## Augmentation Guidelines
-
-### For Core Augmentations
-- Use `_brainy.*` for system fields
-- Use `_augmentations.{name}.*` for augmentation data
-- Never modify user fields directly
-
-### For 3rd Party Augmentations
-- Read user metadata via `getUserMetadata()`
-- Write only to `_augmentations.{yourName}.*`
-- Request permission for internal field access
-
-## Critical Fields to Namespace
-
-| Field | Current Location | New Location | Priority |
-|-------|-----------------|--------------|----------|
-| deleted | metadata.deleted | metadata._brainy.deleted | HIGH โ
|
-| partition | metadata.partition | metadata._brainy.partition | HIGH |
-| domain | metadata.domain | metadata._brainy.distributedDomain | HIGH |
-| createdAt | metadata.createdAt | metadata._brainy.createdAt | MEDIUM |
-| updatedAt | metadata.updatedAt | metadata._brainy.updatedAt | MEDIUM |
-| noun | metadata.noun | metadata._brainy.nounType | MEDIUM |
-| verb | metadata.verb | metadata._brainy.verbType | MEDIUM |
-| isPlaceholder | metadata.isPlaceholder | metadata._brainy.placeholder | LOW |
-| autoCreated | metadata.autoCreated | metadata._brainy.autoCreated | LOW |
