brain.data() now serializes part or all of a brain to a versioned, portable
JSON document (BackupData) and restores it — the path for partial backups,
cross-environment moves, and 7.x→8.0 migration.
- export(selector?, options?): select by ids, collection (+transitive Contains),
connected neighbourhood, vfsPath subtree, predicate, or whole brain; structural
and predicate selectors compose. Options: includeVectors, includeContent (VFS
blobs), includeSystem, edges ('induced'|'incident'|'none').
- import(backup, options?): onConflict 'merge' (dedup-by-id) | 'replace' | 'skip';
reembed 'auto' (re-embed from data when no vector carried) | 'never'; remapIds
to clone a subgraph under fresh ids.
- BackupData v1: format/formatVersion/brainyVersion/createdAt/embedding/entities/
relations/blobs?/danglingIds?/stats. Reserved fields (subtype, data, confidence,
weight, service) top-level; metadata custom-only. Current-state, no generations.
- Replaces the prior flat-entity export() (dropped relations) with a graph-complete
document. Distinct from brain.import(file) ingestion, which is unchanged.
- Export BackupData/BackupEntity/BackupRelation/ExportSelector/ExportOptions/
ImportOptions/ImportResult/DataAPI from the package root. CLI `brainy export`
now writes a BackupData document.

The __words__ keyword index stores 50-5000 entries per entity (one per
word), which inflated avg entries/entity well above the corruption
threshold of 100. This caused:
1. validateConsistency() to falsely detect corruption on every startup,
triggering unnecessary clearAllIndexData() + rebuild() cycles
2. getStats() to log false "Metadata index may be corrupted" warnings
and report inflated totalEntries/totalIds stats
Both methods now skip __words__ when counting, so stats and health
checks reflect metadata fields only (noun, type, createdAt, etc.).
Keyword search is unaffected since the __words__ field index itself
is not modified.
- 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
