The 3.0 native engine ships as @soulcraft/cor (brainy 8.x <-> cor 3.x are a
version-matched pair); the old @soulcraft/cortex package stays on the 2.x/7.x
line. Public docs and .d.ts-visible comments now name the correct package.
Historical 2.x contract references (e.g. the 2.3.1 read-side fallback) keep
the old name deliberately.
The old config-generation subsystem (src/config/ + autoConfiguration.ts) was
superseded during the 8.0 rework and never wired into init(): it emitted settings
for a partitioning subsystem that no longer exists and probed deleted cloud env
vars. The live zero-config path is inline — recall preset → HNSW knobs, storage
auto-detect, auto persistMode, container-memory-aware cache sizing.
The storage progressive-init / cloud-detection cluster was equally dead after the
cloud adapters were dropped: isCloudStorage() is permanently false (no overriders),
scheduleBackgroundInit/runBackgroundInit were never called (the latter an empty
body), initMode was never assigned, and Brainy.isFullyInitialized()/
awaitBackgroundInit() were always-trivial with zero callers. scheduleCountPersist()
collapses to its only-ever-taken immediate write-through path.
Removed:
- src/config/{index,zeroConfig,storageAutoConfig,modelAutoConfig,sharedConfigManager}.ts
- src/utils/autoConfiguration.ts + the inert BrainyZeroConfig export
- Brainy.isFullyInitialized()/awaitBackgroundInit() (+ BrainyInterface decls)
- InitMode type, isCloudStorage/detectCloudEnvironment/resolveInitMode,
scheduleBackgroundInit/runBackgroundInit/ensureValidatedForWrite and their state
- Dead cloud env-var probes (K_SERVICE/K_REVISION/AWS_LAMBDA_FUNCTION_NAME/
FUNCTIONS_TARGET/AZURE_FUNCTIONS_ENVIRONMENT)
Kept (verified live): production-detection logging (environment.ts), container-
memory cache sizing (memoryDetection/paramValidation), on-disk hash bucketing
(sharding.ts).
Docs: scrubbed deleted-subsystem references (JS quantization knobs, cloud/OPFS
adapters, partitioning, old zero-config API) across 14 files; deleted two wholly-
obsolete feature docs (complete-feature-list, v3-features); rewrote
architecture/zero-config for 8.0.
~3,700 LOC removed. Build clean; 1392 unit + 24 db-mvcc green.
Add detailed documentation explaining Brainy's 4-index architecture:
- MetadataIndex: inverted indexing with temporal bucketing (v3.41.0)
- HNSWIndex: hierarchical vector similarity search
- GraphAdjacencyIndex: O(1) bidirectional relationship traversal
- DeletedItemsIndex: soft-delete tracking
Includes explanation of UnifiedCache for coordinated memory management
across all indexes, integration patterns, performance characteristics,
and best practices for developers.
Updated overview.md to reference the new index architecture documentation.
- Fixed imports in examples/tests/ to use correct Brainy import
- Fixed imports in tests/benchmarks/ to use correct paths
- Updated bin/brainy-interactive.js to use Brainy instead of BrainyData
- Corrected documentation references throughout codebase
- Removed duplicate imports in benchmark files
- All files now consistently use 'Brainy' class from dist/index.js
