## Major Architecture Improvements
### Cortex Refactoring
- Renamed AugmentationPipeline → Cortex for clarity
- Cortex is now the central orchestrator (not an augmentation)
- NeuralImport remains as the AI-powered SENSE augmentation
- Clean brain metaphor: BrainyData → Cortex → Augmentations
### Four-Tier Augmentation System
1. **Built-in** (Free, MIT): Neural Import, basic storage, search
2. **Community** (Free, npm): Community-created augmentations
3. **Premium** ($49-299/mo): AI Memory, Agent Coordinator, Enterprise connectors
4. **Brain Cloud** ($19-99/mo): Managed service with all features
### Zero Configuration Philosophy
- Everything works out of the box - no config needed
- Automatic model detection and loading
- Seamless integration between tiers
- Brain Cloud connects with one command: `brainy cloud`
### Documentation Updates
- Added PHILOSOPHY.md outlining design principles
- Created AUGMENTATION_ARCHITECTURE.md with tier system
- Added CLI_AUGMENTATION_GUIDE.md for augmentation management
- Updated README to "sell first" with concrete use cases
- Improved documentation organization in /docs
### Developer Experience
- Backward compatibility maintained with exports
- Clean, simple API surface
- Interactive-by-default approach
- Premium features integrate seamlessly
### Removed
- Deleted demo directory and deploy workflow (moved to website)
- Removed test wrapper scripts (bash 2>&1 bug workaround)
This refactor makes Brainy incredibly powerful yet easy to use, with everything automated and no configuration required. The Brain Cloud augmentations (AI memory, sync, coordination) integrate seamlessly as our killer features.
- Updated all soulcraftlabs.com references to soulcraft.com
- Updated all soulcraft-research.com references to soulcraft.com

- Only preload data in read-only mode or when dataset is small (<10k entities)
Fixes:
- Fix intelligent verb scoring tests metadata structure
- Fix S3 storage getVerbsBySource/Target/Type methods
- Fix memory usage in search operations using pagination
Docs:
- Add comprehensive storage architecture documentation
- Document known bash redirection issue
- Update README with architecture doc link
All affected tests passing
