highlight() used Promise.race with a 10s timeout, but the losing
semantic phase promise continued running 25 WASM micro-batches,
saturating the event loop and degrading all subsequent operations
(find() going from ~200ms to ~10,000ms).
Add AbortController to highlight() so the semantic phase stops
immediately on timeout or error. Pass abort signal through
embedBatch() → EmbeddingManager → micro-batch loop.
Also add defensive hardening:
- CandleEmbeddingEngine: try/catch around WASM calls resets engine
state on failure so next call triggers re-initialization
- WASMEmbeddingEngine: initialize() now checks underlying Candle
engine state, not just its own flag, completing the recovery chain
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.
In bun --compile binaries, import.meta.url resolves to virtual paths.
Added fallback strategies to find model assets:
1. Pre-resolved paths (Bun runtime)
2. ./node_modules/@soulcraft/brainy/assets/ (npm installed)
3. ./assets/ (local development)
For Docker/Cloud Run deployment:
- Copy assets folder alongside binary
- Or keep node_modules structure

Cloud Run cold starts taking 139 seconds due to 90MB WASM file with
embedded 87MB model weights. WASM compilation scales with file size.
Solution: Split into 2.4MB WASM (code only) + external model files.
- WASM compile: 139,000ms → 6-8ms
- Model load: N/A → 30-115ms
- Total init: 139,000ms → 136-240ms
New modelLoader.ts handles all environments:
- Node.js: fs.readFile()
- Bun: Bun.file()
- Bun --compile: auto-embedded assets
- Browser: fetch()
Zero config - same API, npm package includes model files.
