BREAKING: This is a critical architectural fix for the VFS tree corruption bug
reported by Soulcraft Workshop team. The fix addresses the root cause: dual
ownership of GraphAdjacencyIndex causing verbIdSet to be out of sync.
## Root Cause Analysis
The bug was caused by TWO separate GraphAdjacencyIndex instances:
1. Storage.graphIndex (created in BaseStorage.init())
2. Brainy.graphIndex (created in Brainy.init())
When verbs were saved, both instances were updated. But if Storage's graphIndex
was recreated (via ensureInitialized()), the new instance had an empty verbIdSet.
Queries filtered through this empty verbIdSet returned nothing - making data
appear lost even though it existed in the LSM-trees.
## Fix Summary
1. **GraphAdjacencyIndex Singleton Pattern**
- Removed direct creation from BaseStorage.init()
- Brainy now uses `storage.getGraphIndex()` instead of creating its own
- getGraphIndex() has proper singleton pattern with concurrent access protection
- Added `invalidateGraphIndex()` for branch switches
2. **Auto-rebuild verbIdSet Defense**
- Added check in ensureInitialized(): if LSM-trees have data but verbIdSet
is empty, automatically populate verbIdSet from storage
- This is a safety net for edge cases
3. **Removed Double-Add Bug**
- Removed graphIndex.addVerb() from saveVerb_internal()
- Graph index updates now happen ONLY via AddToGraphIndexOperation in
Brainy.relate() transaction system
- This prevents duplicate counting in relationshipCountsByType
4. **PathResolver Cache Invalidation**
- Added invalidateAllCaches() method to PathResolver and SemanticPathResolver
- checkout() now clears VFS caches before recreating VFS for new branch
## Files Changed
- src/storage/baseStorage.ts: Removed graphIndex creation from init(), added
invalidateGraphIndex(), removed addVerb from saveVerb_internal()
- src/brainy.ts: Use storage.getGraphIndex() in init/fork/checkout
- src/graph/graphAdjacencyIndex.ts: Auto-rebuild verbIdSet in ensureInitialized()
- src/vfs/PathResolver.ts: Added invalidateAllCaches()
- src/vfs/semantic/SemanticPathResolver.ts: Added invalidateAllCaches()
## Testing
All VFS tests pass (7/7), including:
- mkdir() should not corrupt VFS index
- Delete and recreate folder cycles
- Contains relationship queries

Two critical issues fixed:
1. MetadataIndex.lazyLoadCounts() - Added counts to existing Map instead of
replacing. Each app restart caused counts to double, leading to 100x
inflation after ~100 restarts.
2. MetadataIndex.rebuild() and GraphAdjacencyIndex.rebuild() - Did not clear
count Maps before rebuilding, causing accumulation.
Changes:
- Clear totalEntitiesByType, entityCountsByTypeFixed, verbCountsByTypeFixed
at start of lazyLoadCounts()
- Clear totalEntitiesByType, entityCountsByTypeFixed, verbCountsByTypeFixed,
typeFieldAffinity in MetadataIndex.rebuild()
- Clear relationshipCountsByType in GraphAdjacencyIndex.rebuild()

CRITICAL FIX: VFS bug that persisted through v4.5.1-v4.7.4 is NOW FIXED.
Root Cause:
- Storage adapters were not properly extracting standard fields from metadata
- This caused getVerbsBySource_internal() to return 0 relationships despite relationships existing
- VFS PathResolver couldn't navigate directory structure
Solution - Metadata Architecture Refactoring:
1. Move standard fields to top-level of HNSWNounWithMetadata and HNSWVerbWithMetadata
- type, createdAt, updatedAt, confidence, weight, service, data, createdBy
2. Update all 9 storage adapters to extract standard fields from metadata on load
3. Maintain backward compatibility at storage layer (metadata files unchanged)
Changes:
- src/coreTypes.ts: Update HNSWNounWithMetadata and HNSWVerbWithMetadata interfaces
- Add top-level standard fields
- Change data type from unknown to Record<string, any>
- Add confidence field to GraphVerb
- src/storage/baseStorage.ts: Add type cast pattern for standard field extraction
- src/storage/adapters/*.ts: Fix all 9 adapters (memoryStorage, fileSystemStorage, gcsStorage,
s3CompatibleStorage, r2Storage, opfsStorage, azureBlobStorage, typeAwareStorageAdapter)
- Extract standard fields from metadata on load
- Place at top-level of returned entities
- src/api/DataAPI.ts: Read fields from top-level instead of metadata
- src/graph/graphAdjacencyIndex.ts: Convert HNSWVerbWithMetadata to GraphVerb format
- src/utils/metadataIndex.ts: Fix typo (metadata → entityOrMetadata)
- src/types/brainy.types.ts: Add createdBy field to AddParams
- src/types/graphTypes.ts: Add service field to GraphVerb
Test Results:
✅ VFS bug FIXED - vfs.readdir('/') now returns files (was returning empty array)
✅ getVerbsBySource_internal() now returns relationships correctly
✅ Build succeeds with ZERO compilation errors
✅ 95.7% of tests pass (954/997)
Breaking Changes:
- None - backward compatibility maintained at storage layer
Version: 4.8.0
