+- refactor: remove the orphaned transaction-result type left behind by the dead-path removal (edf123a5)
+- fix: warm() metadata surface routes through the active provider (warm hook added to the metadata contract); add maintenanceDebt() observability surface (5b2cbf74)
+- fix: transaction timeouts are a typed no-hot-retry contract; engine-side non-retry pinned; dead transaction path removed (003e2a74)
+- chore: the forge is the address — retire the archived mirror from every live surface (22702b81)

+## v8.10.1 — 2026-07-24 (the no-hot-retry contract + warm()'s metadata surface under native providers)
+
+From a production incident: a native-provider op ground 38-40s inside a transaction,
+blew the ~32s apply-phase budget, was rolled back (zero loss, by design), and a
+downstream pipeline hot-retried the identical operation into a 6-minute, 100%-CPU
+storm. Investigation confirmed Brainy itself never auto-retries a timed-out
+transaction — the storm was entirely the consumer's own retry loop, driven by a
+"retryable" doc-prose claim with no machine-readable contract to branch on. This
+release closes that contract gap and, separately, fixes a real `warm()` reporting gap
+surfaced by the same investigation.
+
+- **`TransactionTimeoutError` is now a machine-readable no-hot-retry contract.** Two
+ new typed, always-`true` fields replace prose-only guidance:
+ - `retryable: true` — the operation MAY succeed on a later attempt, once the
+ underlying slowness resolves or the budget is deliberately raised
+ (`transactionBudgetFloorMs`, or a batch's own `timeoutMs` override).
+ - `hotRetryUnsafe: true` — an immediate, identical retry re-pays the FULL cost of
+ the work that just timed out (it does not resume partway) and can cascade into
+ exactly the CPU storm above. **Never loop on this error.** The documented pattern
+ is a latch, not a retry loop:
+ ```
+ on TransactionTimeoutError:
+ record { at: Date.now(), error }
+ rethrow loudly to your own caller
+ hold a cooldown window before any re-attempt
+ clear the latch only on a subsequent success
+ ```
+ - `context` (unchanged, now fully documented) carries the backoff inputs:
+ `timeoutMs`, `operationIndex`, `elapsedMs`, `totalOperations`, `operationName`.
+ - Every "retryable" doc-prose site referencing this error (`transact()`'s
+ `timeoutMs` option, `transactionBudgetFloorMs`, `Transaction.execute()`) now
+ points at these fields instead of bare prose.
+ - Regression-pinned: the engine never internally re-drives a timed-out operation
+ (verified via an execution counter through both the single-op write path and
+ `add()`'s upsert-race retry loop), so this has always been true — it is now
+ provable and typed.
+- **Dead code removed**: `TransactionManager.executeTransactionWithResult()` had zero
+ callers in this codebase and is deleted.
+- **`brain.warm()`'s metadata surface now routes through the ACTIVE provider.** A
+ production deployment's warm report showed `metadata: 'unavailable'` under a native
+ metadata provider — the previous logic only duck-typed the built-in JS manager's
+ `hydrateAll()` method, which a native provider has no reason to implement. The
+ metadata provider contract (`MetadataIndexProvider`, `src/plugin.ts`) gains an
+ optional `warm?(): Promise` hook, mirroring the existing vector and graph
+ provider hooks. `brain.warm()` now checks the active provider's own `warm()` FIRST,
+ falls back to the JS manager's `hydrateAll()` when absent, and only reports
+ `'unavailable'` when neither exists — never `init()` as a stand-in, since a native
+ provider's `init()` may be a cheap verify rather than a real warm. A native
+ provider lights this surface up the same way `@soulcraft/cor` already lights the
+ vector and graph surfaces: implement `warm()` on its metadata provider.
+- **New: `brain.maintenanceDebt()`** — the observability seam so an operator sees a
+ provider's outstanding background maintenance work (pending bytes/items, last pass
+ outcome, whether it's converging) BEFORE it grinds into the kind of budget-busting
+ op this release's timeout contract exists for, instead of discovering it as a CPU
+ storm. It is a pure passthrough: brainy applies no thresholds, no polling, and no
+ estimation — it calls each active provider's own optional `maintenanceDebt?()` hook
+ (vector, metadata, graph — the same three contracts `warm?()` lives on) and reports
+ the payload verbatim, or `'unavailable'` when a surface's provider doesn't track
+ debt. Useful as a pre-warm/post-warm check or a boot gate. `@soulcraft/cor` does not
+ yet implement the hook as of this release — expect it on cor's next release; until
+ then all three surfaces honestly report `'unavailable'`.
+

+ * @module db/generationSegments
+ * @description The generation-segment store — Stage-2 D1+D3+repacking's file
+ * format (co-frozen 2026-07-19; design: the d1-d3-repacking spec).
+ *
+ * Packs CONSECUTIVE cold generations' record-sets (before-images + delta)
+ * into append-once segment files with derived sidecar indexes, so history
+ * scales in SEGMENTS (tens) instead of FILES-PER-GENERATION (hundreds of
+ * thousands), and cold-open reads ONE manifest instead of listing the
+ * backlog. Layout under `_generations/segments/`:
+ *
+ * - `seg-.bgs` — magic "BGS1", then one frame per
+ * generation: `u32 payloadLen | u32 crc32c | msgpack payload`. Payload is
+ * POSITIONAL: `[generation, timestamp, delta, records[], flags]` with
+ * records `[kindByte, id, record]`. `flags` reserves encoding evolution
+ * (bit 0 = compressed payload — v1 always 0; a future writer upgrade,
+ * never a format break). Sealed segments are IMMUTABLE — the fact log's
+ * own law, generalized.
+ * - `seg-.idx` — DERIVED sidecar (msgpack): per-generation frame
+ * offsets (point reads = one ranged read, never a listing) + per-id
+ * generation postings (per-id chain rebuilds read only what they need).
+ * Corrupt/missing → rebuilt from its segment in one sequential read,
+ * loudly.
+ * - `manifest.json` — the segment catalogue + `compactedBelow` (D3's
+ * horizon marker). Cold-open reads THIS; the packed backlog is never
+ * listed.
+ *
+ * D3 semantics carried here: bounded-retention reclaim drops WHOLE segments
+ * at boundaries (O(1) per segment, no rewrite); under the archival profile
+ * (`retention: 'all'`) nothing here is ever dropped — folding is the only
+ * transform (re-representation, never deletion).

+ * `TransactionTimeoutError` — the storm was entirely the consumer's hot-retry
+ * loop, driven by a "retryable" doc-prose claim with no machine-readable
+ * contract. This file pins the brainy-side half of that story so it can never
+ * regress silently:
+ *
+ * (i) the underlying engine (`TransactionManager.executeTransaction()` →
+ * `Transaction.execute()`) — the exact machinery every single-record
+ * write (`add`/`update`/`remove`/...) drives via
+ * `Brainy.persistSingleOp()` — never internally re-executes a timed-out
+ * operation, and the error it surfaces carries `retryable === true` and
+ * `hotRetryUnsafe === true` (see `src/transaction/errors.ts`).
+ *
+ * Constructed directly (mirrors the existing
+ * `tests/unit/transaction/timeout-rollback.test.ts` pattern) rather than
+ * through a real `brain.add()` call: `transactTimeoutBudget()` floors
+ * every single-op write's budget at `opCount * 2000`ms with NO override
+ * seam (`transactionBudgetFloorMs` only RAISES that floor — it cannot
+ * lower it below the per-op-count term), so getting a real `add()` to
+ * time out requires a multi-second sleep. The engine-level
+ * `options.timeout` override used here is the exact same
+ * `TransactionManager`/`Transaction` code `persistSingleOp` calls —
+ * pinning it here pins add()'s guarantee without paying that wall-clock
+ * cost.
+ *
+ * (ii) `Brainy.add()`'s upsert-race retry loop (src/brainy.ts,
+ * `MAX_UPSERT_ATTEMPTS = 10`) — proving the loop's `catch` treats a
+ * `TransactionTimeoutError` as terminal (immediate rethrow) rather than
+ * the `InsertPreconditionExistsSignal` it retries on, so a mid-flight
+ * timeout can never be silently swallowed and re-attempted up to 10
+ * times.
