It cannot see +what the store already holds, so it cannot tell a new fact from one already stored, and it +cannot name the stored value a turn has just changed. This module gives the same headless +command (`claude -p`, under the user's own login) read-only access to the user's memory for +one run. The model searches a few times, then returns a list of **proposals**. It never +writes. The hook checks every proposal and applies the ones that pass through the write +paths the hook already uses, and the server's reconciler still decides duplicates and +conflicts. This is the rule the phase 3 design states for agentic extraction: the model +proposes, and the deterministic write path applies. + +It is modelled on Supermemory's memory agent, which searches existing memories three to +five times and then creates memories with `updates`, `extends` and `derives` relations, a +static flag and an expiry. Two of that agent's defects shaped this module: + +* **It stored its own prompt as memories.** Twenty of the 26 memories in one store were + restatements of the agent's instructions. Here the rules go in the system prompt and the + conversation goes in the user message, inside a data block whose delimiters carry a + random value per run, described as data. A proposal whose object repeats the rules is + refused (`_restates_rules`), and the tests feed in a turn that quotes the rules. +* **It re-read the whole session on every turn.** Here capture stays per turn, as + `capture.py` explains. The model is also shown up to `CONTEXT_CHARS` of the turns + before, marked as already mined, so that a reply like "yes, do that" can be read against + the question it answers. Nothing is extracted from that window, and a proposal whose + text comes from it rather than from the new turn is refused. + +**The four proposal kinds.** A new fact; a supersede of a stored claim id with a new value +and a reason (`memory_remember` with `replaces`); an end of a claim id with a reason +(`memory_end`); and a link between two claims, `extends` or `derives` (`memory_link`). A +proposal that names a claim id the model did not see in a tool result during this run is +refused and logged, because an id the model wrote without reading it is a guess. A reply +that is not a proposal list is logged, the turn still counts as mined, and nothing is +written. + +**How the headless command is restricted.** See `argv`. In short: no built-in tools, no +MCP server except memvara, only the four read tools in the model's context, every other +tool refused without a prompt, at most `MAX_SEARCHES` tool calls and `MAX_STEPS` model +turns. The hook reads the command's event stream as it arrives and stops the run the +moment it makes one call too many. + +**Fallback.** When the command has no memory access, fails, times out or goes over the +search limit, capture falls back to the single-call extraction for that turn and writes a +`capture.log` line saying why. The single-call path raises the capture alert when it fails +too, so a login that has expired still reaches the terminal the way it did before. + +**Cost.** Measured on this machine on 2026-09-24 with the replay in +`tests/fixtures/agentic_capture/replay.py`, over nine synthetic turns replayed twice: a +mean 19,436 input and 1,163 output tokens and 17.3 seconds per turn, against 45,258, 1,272 +and 19.6 for the single call on the same machine. The run replaces the headless command's +default system prompt and loads no settings files, so its fixed cost is the four tool +schemas and these rules, about 10,500 input tokens with no search. Each search adds a +model step that reads everything before it again. The full table is in section 3.7 of the +phase 3 design. The searches themselves are plain reads (`PLAIN_READ_ENV`, +`READ_STAGES_HEADER`), so a store with a model configured does not add a model call per +search on top of these numbers. +""" + +from __future__ import annotations + +import json +import os +import re +import secrets +import subprocess +import sys +import tempfile +import threading +import time +from datetime import datetime, timezone +from typing import Any, NamedTuple, Sequence + +from core.host import CLAUDE_MODEL + +from . import ipc +from .extract import (PROMPT_TAIL, SENTINEL, Fact, _chain, _vocabulary_lines, + project_subject, vet) +from .ipc import clear_capture_alert +from .transcript import user_lines +from .usage import record_extraction +from .write import (CLAIM_ID, end_claim, link_claims, log, new_claim_id, + remember_kwargs, takes) + +#: How many earlier characters of the session the model sees, marked as already mined. +#: A few thousand: enough for the question a short reply answers, and small enough that +#: the window cannot turn into the whole-session re-read that Supermemory's agent does. +CONTEXT_CHARS = 4_000 + +#: Tool calls allowed in one run.
