feat: wire plugin system with provider resolution, storage factories, and browser deprecation
- Wire PluginRegistry into Brainy init() with provider resolution for distance,
metadataIndex, graphIndex, embeddings, roaring, msgpack, and storage adapters
- Add setupStorage() factory that resolves storage:* providers from plugins before
falling back to built-in createStorage()
- Export internals API (setGlobalCache, UnifiedCache, EntityIdMapper, etc.) for
cortex plugin consumption
- Add plugin.test.ts verifying registration, activation, and provider resolution
- Deprecate browser support (OPFS, Web Workers, WASM embeddings) with warnings
in preparation for v8.0 server-only release
- FileSystemStorage: fix setupStorage resolution for mmap-filesystem provider

feat(8.0)!: flip requireSubtype default to true (BRAINY-8.0-SUBTYPE-CONTRACT § C-1)
Brainy 8.0 makes subtype required by default on every public write path
(`add`, `addMany`, `update`, `relate`, `relateMany`, `updateRelation`,
import). Per the locked C-1 contract, every entity and relation gets a
non-empty subtype string by the time the storage layer sees it.
OPT-OUT REMAINS FULLY SUPPORTED
The runtime flag is still consumer-controlled. Three opt-out paths
cover migration / legacy fixtures / typed escape:
- `new Brainy({ requireSubtype: false })` — last-resort: turn off the
contract entirely. Recommended only for migration windows or test
fixtures that legitimately can't supply a subtype.
- `new Brainy({ requireSubtype: { except: [NounType.Thing, ...] } })` —
per-type allowlist: strict everywhere except the listed types.
- `brain.requireSubtype(type, options)` — per-type registration with
optional vocabulary. Composes with the brain-wide flag.
Default is now `true`. Opt-out is explicit and documented; nothing
silently degrades.
TEST SWEEP
Bulk-applied `requireSubtype: false` to every `new Brainy({...})` call
site across 120 test files. Three sed patterns covered the shapes:
- `new Brainy({` → `new Brainy({ requireSubtype: false,`
- `new Brainy<T>({` → `new Brainy<T>({ requireSubtype: false,`
- `new Brainy()` → `new Brainy({ requireSubtype: false })`
tests/helpers/test-factory.ts → createTestConfig() defaults
`requireSubtype: false` so test files using the helper inherit the
opt-out without per-site edits.
The test sites that DO exercise subtype semantics (the
subtype-and-facets suite, the strict-mode-self-test suite, the verb-
subtype-and-enforcement suite, etc.) already pass real subtypes — they
were the 7.30.x acceptance tests for this contract. Those tests
continue to pass unchanged.
CHANGES
src/brainy.ts
- normalizeConfig() — `requireSubtype` default `false` → `true`.
Comment refreshed to document the three opt-out paths.
tests/* (120 files)
- Bulk-edited brain construction sites. No functional test changes; the
opt-out preserves the test author's original intent.
tests/helpers/test-factory.ts
- createTestConfig() base config gains `requireSubtype: false`.
NO-OP for consumers who were already passing subtype on every write.
For consumers who weren't, the upgrade path is one of the three opt-out
forms above. Migration recipe documented in 8.0 release notes (next
commit).

per-type allowlist: strict everywhere except the listed types.
- `brain.requireSubtype(type, options)` — per-type registration with
optional vocabulary. Composes with the brain-wide flag.
Default is now `true`. Opt-out is explicit and documented; nothing
silently degrades.
TEST SWEEP
Bulk-applied `requireSubtype: false` to every `new Brainy({...})` call
site across 120 test files. Three sed patterns covered the shapes:
- `new Brainy({` → `new Brainy({ requireSubtype: false,`
- `new Brainy<T>({` → `new Brainy<T>({ requireSubtype: false,`
- `new Brainy()` → `new Brainy({ requireSubtype: false })`
tests/helpers/test-factory.ts → createTestConfig() defaults
`requireSubtype: false` so test files using the helper inherit the
opt-out without per-site edits.
The test sites that DO exercise subtype semantics (the
subtype-and-facets suite, the strict-mode-self-test suite, the verb-
subtype-and-enforcement suite, etc.) already pass real subtypes — they
were the 7.30.x acceptance tests for this contract. Those tests
continue to pass unchanged.
CHANGES
src/brainy.ts
- normalizeConfig() — `requireSubtype` default `false` → `true`.
Comment refreshed to document the three opt-out paths.
tests/* (120 files)
- Bulk-edited brain construction sites. No functional test changes; the
opt-out preserves the test author's original intent.
tests/helpers/test-factory.ts
- createTestConfig() base config gains `requireSubtype: false`.
NO-OP for consumers who were already passing subtype on every write.
For consumers who weren't, the upgrade path is one of the three opt-out
forms above. Migration recipe documented in 8.0 release notes (next
commit).
VERIFICATION
- npx tsc --noEmit: clean
- npm test: 1408 / 1409 (same pre-existing race-condition outstanding;
no other regressions from the flip)

const brain = new Brainy ( { requireSubtype : false , storage : { type : 'memory' } } )
feat: wire plugin system with provider resolution, storage factories, and browser deprecation
- Wire PluginRegistry into Brainy init() with provider resolution for distance,
metadataIndex, graphIndex, embeddings, roaring, msgpack, and storage adapters
- Add setupStorage() factory that resolves storage:* providers from plugins before
falling back to built-in createStorage()
- Export internals API (setGlobalCache, UnifiedCache, EntityIdMapper, etc.) for
cortex plugin consumption
- Add plugin.test.ts verifying registration, activation, and provider resolution
- Deprecate browser support (OPFS, Web Workers, WASM embeddings) with warnings
in preparation for v8.0 server-only release
- FileSystemStorage: fix setupStorage resolution for mmap-filesystem provider
