## [Unreleased]

### Added - Workflow Engine Hardening (Persistence · Saga · Cedar)

#### `vapora-workflow-engine` — three new hardening layers

- **`persistence.rs`**: `SurrealWorkflowStore` — crash-recoverable `WorkflowInstance` state in SurrealDB
  - `save()` upserts on every state-mutating operation; serializes via `serde_json::Value` (surrealdb v3 `SurrealValue` requirement)
  - `load_active()` on startup restores all non-terminal instances to the in-memory `DashMap`
  - `delete()` removes terminal instances after completion
- **`saga.rs`**: `SagaCompensator` — reverse-order rollback dispatch via `SwarmCoordinator`
  - Iterates executed stages in reverse; skips stages without `compensation_agents` in `StageConfig`
  - Dispatches `{ type: "compensation", stage_name, workflow_id, original_context, artifacts_to_undo }` payload
  - Best-effort: errors are logged and never propagated
- **`auth.rs`**: `CedarAuthorizer` — per-stage Cedar policy enforcement
  - `load_from_dir(path)` reads all `*.cedar` files and compiles a single `PolicySet`
  - Called before each `SwarmCoordinator::assign_task()`; deny returns `WorkflowError::Unauthorized`
  - Disabled when `EngineConfig.cedar_policy_dir` is `None`
- **`config.rs`**: `StageConfig` gains `compensation_agents: Option<Vec<String>>`; `EngineConfig` gains `cedar_policy_dir: Option<String>`
- **`instance.rs`**: `WorkflowInstance::mark_current_task_failed()` — isolates the `current_stage_mut()` borrow to avoid NLL conflicts and clippy `excessive_nesting` in `on_task_failed()`
- **`migrations/009_workflow_state.surql`**: SCHEMAFULL `workflow_instances` table; indexes on `template_name` and `created_at`
- New deps: `surrealdb = { workspace = true }`, `cedar-policy = "4.9"`
- Tests: 31 pass (5 new — `auth` × 3, `saga` × 2); 0 clippy warnings

#### `vapora-knowledge-graph` — surrealdb v3 compatibility fixes

- All `response.take(0)` call sites updated from custom `#[derive(Deserialize)]` structs to `Vec<serde_json::Value>` intermediary pattern
  - Affected: `find_similar_executions`, `get_agent_success_rate`, `get_task_distribution`, `cleanup_old_executions`, `get_execution_count`, `get_executions_for_task_type`, `get_agent_executions`, `get_task_type_analytics`, `get_dashboard_metrics`, `get_cost_report`, `get_rlm_executions_by_doc`, `find_similar_rlm_tasks`, `get_rlm_execution_count`, `cleanup_old_rlm_executions`
- Root cause: `surrealdb` v3 changed `take()` bound from `T: DeserializeOwned` to `T: SurrealValue`; `serde_json::Value` satisfies this; custom structs do not

---

### Fixed - `distro.just` build and installation

- `distro::install`: now builds all 5 server binaries in one `cargo build --release` pass
  - Added `vapora-a2a` and `vapora-mcp-server` to the explicit build list (were missing; silently copied from stale `target/release/` if present, skipped otherwise)
  - Added `vapora-a2a` to the install copy list (was absent entirely)
  - Missing binary → explicit warning with count; exits non-zero if zero installed
- `distro::install-full`: new recipe — runs `install` as a dependency then `trunk build --release`
  - Replaces the broken `UI=true` parameter approach: `just` 1.x treats `KEY=value` tokens as positional args to the first parameter when invoked via module syntax (`distro::recipe`), not as named overrides
  - Validates `trunk` is in PATH before attempting the build
- `distro::install-targets`: added `wasm32-unknown-unknown`; idempotent — checks `rustup target list --installed` before calling `rustup target add`
- `distro::build-all-targets`: excludes `wasm32-unknown-unknown` from the workspace loop; WASM requires per-crate `trunk` build, not `cargo build --workspace --target wasm32`

### Added - NatsBridge + A2A JetStream Integration

#### `vapora-agents` — NatsBridge (real JetStream)

- `nats_bridge.rs`: new `NatsBridge` with real `async_nats::jetstream::Context`
  - `submit_task()` → JetStream publish with double-await ack, returns sequence number
  - `subscribe_task_results()` → durable pull consumer (`WorkQueue` retention), returns `mpsc::Receiver<TaskResult>`
  - `list_agents()` → reads from live `AgentRegistry`, never hardcoded
  - `NatsBrokerConfig` with sensible defaults; stream auto-created via `get_or_create_stream`
- `swarm_adapter.rs`: replaced all 3 stubs with real logic
  - `select_agent()` → `swarm.submit_task_for_bidding()` for load-balanced selection
  - `report_completion()` → `swarm.update_agent_status()` with load adjustment on failure
  - `agent_load()` → derives current tasks from fractional load via `swarm.get_agent()`

#### `vapora-swarm` — `SwarmCoordinator::get_agent()`

- Added `pub fn get_agent(&self, agent_id: &str) -> Option<AgentProfile>` to expose per-agent profiles from private `DashMap`

#### `vapora-a2a` — NatsBridge integration + SurrealDB serialization fixes

- `CoordinatorBridge`: replaced raw `NatsClient` with `Option<Arc<NatsBridge>>`
  - `start_result_listener()` uses JetStream pull consumer (at-least-once delivery)
  - `dispatch()` publishes to JetStream after coordinator assignment (non-fatal fallback)
  - `list_agents()` delegates to `NatsBridge.list_agents()`
- `server.rs`: added `GET /a2a/agents` endpoint
- `task_manager.rs`: fixed SurrealDB serialization
  - `create()`: switched from `.content()` to parameterized `INSERT INTO` query; avoids SurrealDB serializer failing on adjacently-tagged enums (`A2aMessagePart`)
  - `get()`: changed `SELECT *` to explicit field projection; excludes `id` (SurrealDB `Thing`) and casts datetimes with `type::string()` to avoid `serde_json::Value` deserialization failures
- Integration tests verified: 4/5 pass with SurrealDB + NATS; 5th requires live agent

#### `vapora-leptos-ui`

- Set `doctest = false` in `[lib]`: Leptos components require WASM reactive runtime; native doctests are incompatible by design

### Added - NATS JetStream local container

- `/containers/nats/`: Docker Compose service following existing containers pattern
  - JetStream enabled via `nats.conf` (`store_dir: /data`, max_mem: 1G, max_file: 10G)
  - Persistent volume at `./nats_data`
  - Ports: 4222 (client), 8222 (HTTP monitoring)
  - `local_net` network, `restart: unless-stopped`

### Added - Recursive Language Models (RLM) Integration (v1.3.0)

  - **WASM tier**: Direct Wasmtime invocation (<10ms cold start, 25MB memory)
    - WASI-compatible commands: peek, grep, slice
    - Resource limits: 100MB memory, 5s CPU timeout
    - Security: No network, no filesystem write, read-only workspace
  - **Docker tier**: Pre-warmed container pool (80-150ms from warm pool)
    - Pool size: 10-20 standby containers
    - Full Linux tooling compatibility
    - Auto-replenish on claim, graceful shutdown
  - **Auto-dispatcher**: Automatically selects tier based on task complexity

- **Prometheus Metrics**
  - `vapora_rlm_chunks_total{strategy}` - Chunks created by strategy
  - `vapora_rlm_query_duration_seconds` - Query latency (P50/P95/P99)
  - `vapora_rlm_dispatch_duration_seconds` - LLM dispatch latency

- **No stubs or placeholders**: 100% production-ready implementation

#### Key Architectural Decisions

- **SCHEMALESS vs SCHEMAFULL**: SurrealDB tables use SCHEMALESS to avoid conflicts with auto-generated `id` fields
- **Hybrid Search**: BM25 + Semantic + RRF outperforms either alone empirically
- **Custom Implementation**: Native Rust RLM vs Python frameworks (LangChain/LlamaIndex) for performance, control, and zero-cost abstractions
- **Reuse from `zircote/rlm-rs`**: 60-70% reuse (chunking, RRF, core types) as dependency, not fork

## [1.2.0] - 2026-01-11

### Added - Phase 5.3: Multi-Agent Learning

- **Learning Profiles**: Per-task-type expertise tracking for each agent
  - `LearningProfile` struct with task-type expertise mapping
  - Success rate calculation with recency bias (7-day window weighted 3x)
  - Confidence scoring based on execution count (prevents small-sample overfitting)
  - Learning curve computation with exponential decay

- **Agent Scoring Service**: Unified agent selection combining swarm metrics + learning
  - Formula: `final_score = 0.3*base + 0.5*expertise + 0.2*confidence`
  - Base score from SwarmCoordinator (load balancing)
  - Expertise score from learning profiles (historical success)
  - Confidence weighting dampens low-execution-count agents

- **Knowledge Graph Integration**: Learning curve calculator
  - `calculate_learning_curve()` with time-series expertise evolution
  - `apply_recency_bias()` with exponential weighting formula
  - Aggregate by time windows (daily/weekly) for trend analysis

- **Coordinator Enhancement**: Learning-based agent selection
  - Extract task type from description/role
  - Query learning profiles for task-specific expertise
  - Replace simple load balancing with learning-aware scoring
  - Background profile synchronization (30s interval)

### Added - Phase 5.4: Cost Optimization

- **Budget Manager**: Per-role cost enforcement
  - `BudgetConfig` with TOML serialization/deserialization
  - Role-specific monthly and weekly limits (in cents)
  - Automatic fallback provider when budget exceeded
  - Alert thresholds (default 80% utilization)
  - Weekly/monthly automatic resets

- **Configuration Loading**: Graceful budget initialization
  - `BudgetConfig::load()` with strict validation
  - `BudgetConfig::load_or_default()` with fallback to empty config
  - Environment variable override: `BUDGET_CONFIG_PATH`
  - Validation: limits > 0, thresholds in [0.0, 1.0]

- **Cost-Aware Routing**: Provider selection with budget constraints
  - Three-tier enforcement:
    1. Budget exceeded → force fallback provider
    2. Near threshold (>80%) → prefer cost-efficient providers
    3. Normal → rule-based routing with cost as tiebreaker
  - Cost efficiency ranking: `(quality * 100) / (cost + 1)`
  - Fallback chain ordering by cost (Ollama → Gemini → OpenAI → Claude)

- **Prometheus Metrics**: Real-time cost and budget monitoring
  - `vapora_llm_budget_remaining_cents{role}` - Monthly budget remaining
  - `vapora_llm_budget_utilization{role}` - Budget usage fraction (0.0-1.0)
  - `vapora_llm_fallback_triggered_total{role,reason}` - Fallback event counter
  - `vapora_llm_cost_per_provider_cents{provider}` - Cumulative cost per provider
  - `vapora_llm_tokens_per_provider{provider,type}` - Token usage tracking

- **Grafana Dashboards**: Visual monitoring
  - Budget utilization gauge (color thresholds: 70%, 90%, 100%)
  - Cost distribution pie chart (percentage per provider)
  - Fallback trigger time series (rate of fallback activations)
  - Agent assignment latency histogram (P50, P95, P99)

- **Alert Rules**: Prometheus alerting
  - `BudgetThresholdExceeded`: Utilization > 80% for 5 minutes
  - `HighFallbackRate`: Rate > 0.1 for 10 minutes
  - `CostAnomaly`: Cost spike > 2x historical average
  - `LearningProfilesInactive`: No updates for 5 minutes

### Added - Integration & Testing

  - `test_learning_selection_with_budget_constraints()` - Budget pressure scenarios
  - `test_learning_profile_improvement_with_budget_tracking()` - Learning evolution

- **Agent Server Integration**: Budget initialization at startup
  - Load budget configuration from `config/agent-budgets.toml`
  - Initialize BudgetManager with Arc for thread-safe sharing
  - Attach to coordinator via `with_budget_manager()` builder pattern
  - Graceful fallback if no configuration exists

- **Coordinator Builder Pattern**: Budget manager attachment
  - Added `budget_manager: Option<Arc<BudgetManager>>` field
  - `with_budget_manager()` method for fluent API
  - Updated all constructors (`new()`, `with_registry()`)
  - Backward compatible (works without budget configuration)
