Jaroslav Beneš 1b8c9f948c Grants that outlive what they name, and a rule you can read
sharing.forget_principal has existed since shares did, documented as the thing
that stops a recycled id inheriting somebody's grant, and was called by nobody.
Deleting a group left every grant naming it; deleting an account left both the
grants to it and the grants of its own work -- that second half is the one
nothing else could catch, since their rows cascade and the shares of those rows
have nothing to cascade from. Both now run before the delete, while the rows are
still findable, and a deleted resource forgets its own.

library.share defaulted to False, which meant sharing shipped documented as done
and unreachable: the panel only renders for somebody holding it, so out of the
box nobody could share anything and nothing said why. It is on.

The panel itself was checkboxes inside the resource's *save form*, listing every
group and every account on the instance, unpaginated, on every detail page -- and
a tick only took effect if you also saved the resource. It is its own routes now:
search, one grant per POST, the panel re-rendered from what is stored. Anything
already shared stays listed whatever the search says, or removing a grant would
mean searching for the name it was given to.

Reports join the shareable set and memories still do not: a finished piece of
work is the thing somebody most wants to hand over, and a record about a person
is not content to pass round. reports.visible became sharing.visible_to, which is
the one line its own docstring predicted. Two things fell out: `owned` beside
`get`, because sharing grants reading and deleting is the owner's alone; and
reading somebody else's report no longer clears their unread dot.

Permissions gained the answer to "what can this person actually do?" --
explain() is resolve()'s working shown rather than thrown away, naming admin, the
baseline, or the groups that granted each one. That is the simulation the union
rule exists to make unnecessary, and until now the only way to get it was to open
every group and read the grids by eye. Users and groups are list-plus-detail, and
membership is edited from one side: it was on both, and a full-form POST from
either overwrote what the other had shown.

Read and write are split for notes, memory and skills -- checked on the tool's
declared risk, after the gate so it can only narrow, and defaulting on.

Quotas are the union rule applied to numbers, with the corner that makes it
interesting: zero means "no limit" and wins outright, or a group saying unlimited
would count for less than one saying a million. Absent means "no opinion".
_narrower folds a group's ceiling with the instance's and is deliberately not
min, for the same reason. Five axes, enforced where each is knowable -- before a
reply is built, before a second one starts, on an agent reply's clock, before a
minute of GPU, and beside the helper cap -- and usage is recorded even for a
reply that was stopped or errored, because an endpoint charges either way.

Jaroslav Beneš 20bb569b00 Finding a thing that does not use your words
Three pieces, and the first one is that they are all optional.

Extraction stops being constants. Upload size, image edge, JPEG quality, PDF
pages, extracted characters, orphan age and the text-extension list are settings
now, read through a process-level snapshot rather than a session -- `prepare` and
everything under it are called from routes, tool runners and the startup sweep,
and several of those have no session in hand. Two things deliberately stayed
constants: the decompression-bomb guard, which is a guard and not a preference,
and ORPHAN_AGE, which would have been evaluated at import if it stayed in the
signature and pinned the shipped 24 hours whatever anybody set.

An embedding model is picked from the models an administrator flagged for it, and
one that has since lost its flag is *named* rather than dropped from the picker:
a setting that vanishes is one nobody can tell from a setting never made. Nothing
here is required. Choosing none means no chunk rows, no requests, and
retrieval.search returning exactly what fts.search_ids returns in exactly that
order -- asserted, because it is what makes this safe to land on an instance that
never asked for it.

The two rankings are fused by reciprocal rank fusion: ranks and not scores,
because bm25 is a corpus-dependent negative and cosine is 0..1, and normalising
them onto one scale means picking a constant nobody can tune without a labelled
set they do not have. RRF's one constant is famously insensitive and degrades to
whichever list is non-empty -- which is what turns "no embedding model" into a
branch that does not exist.

A record scores as its best chunk rather than its average, or a long document
about something else outranks a short one that says the thing. Width and model
are stored beside every vector and a mismatch is skipped, because vectors from
two spaces score against each other perfectly happily and mean nothing -- a
search that works and is wrong is the worst failure this can have, and a model
change now leaves stale rows ignored rather than trusted.

Indexing is fired and forgotten, and how a change is noticed is a session event
rather than a call in each of the ten library writers. That is a departure from
this codebase's taste for explicit seams, for the reason tool_label is a Jinja
global: a step every writer has to remember is one that gets forgotten, and here
forgetting is silent -- the record saves, keyword search still finds it, and only
its recall goes stale. Chunks are embedded before anything is deleted, so a
failure leaves the old index rather than half a new one.

Also: `embeddings` joins the model capabilities, and the three tool flags that
had shipped with no checkbox -- canvas, scheduling and helpers -- have one.

Jaroslav Beneš 35b9d8c8d2 Knowledge bases, and a file input that lines up
**Bases.** Documents now live in named collections rather than one flat pile,
and a chat can be pointed at particular ones — "answer from the contracts
folder" is a different question from "answer from everything I have ever
uploaded". A chat with none attached still searches everything its owner can
see, because empty means unscoped, not empty.

The harness names the attached bases. Without that the model cannot tell "there
is nothing about this" from "I am only allowed to see one folder", and it
phrases a miss as the former.

**Sharing moves to the base.** A document is visible to whoever can see the base
it lives in, so `Document` is gone from the shareable types and
`documents.visible()` filters through `base_id`. "This folder is the team's" is
the granularity people think in; per-document grants meant answering "who can
see this?" by checking every file. Moving a document between bases changes who
can see it, so the destination has to be one you own.

`Document.base_id` is nullable only because the column had to be added to a
table that already had rows. `sweep_unfiled()` runs at startup beside the
orphaned-upload sweep and files anything predating bases into its owner's
default, which is what makes "always set" true everywhere else.

**The file input.** `.input` gave it a fixed height and horizontal padding, so
the browser's own button sat hard against the left edge while the filename
floated off the centre line. A file input is two controls in one box and
neither inherits anything useful, so it gets its own rule: no horizontal
padding, the button sized to `--control-h` with the divider that separates it,
and the text centred with line-height rather than flexbox, which file inputs do
not lay out reliably.

437 tests, ruff clean.

Jaroslav Beneš 1eba860d39 Knowledge, notes, memory and skills, and a harness to make them used
Four places a model can reach for, differing in who writes a record and how it
gets in front of the model.

**Knowledge** is uploaded by a person and searched by the model. It goes through
`services/files.py:prepare` — the same pipeline as a chat attachment — so the
same PDF produces the same text whichever way it arrived, and `Document` carries
the same content columns as `Attachment` for the same reason.

**Notes** are written by the model and edited by you. Too long to inject, so
they are searched.

**Memory** is short facts, and every one of them goes into every request. That
single decision is where the rest of its design comes from: records are capped
short, the block has a budget, there is no search tool because the model is
already looking at them, and they are not shareable — a record about a person is
not content to hand round.

**Skills** are saved procedures. Only the name and description are injected; the
body is fetched when the model decides one applies, which is what makes a
hundred skills affordable. A model may write and revise its own — the safety
story is not a gate but a record: every revision is kept, attributed and
revertible. A model that has just read a hostile page can save a skill that
outlives the conversation, and the honest mitigation is that it is visible and
undoable rather than that it was prevented.

**The harness** is why any of it gets used. A model handed a tools array
ignores it and answers from recall, because nothing in the request suggests
otherwise. `services/harness.py` assembles a preamble from what this chat
actually has: when to reach for each tool, the memories, the skill index.

This is an exception to "system prompts are precedence, not concatenation", and
a deliberate one. That rule governs the three *authored* layers and is
untouched — exactly one still wins. The harness is a different axis: it
describes the machinery rather than the behaviour, nobody authored it, and there
is nothing for it to disagree with. It is prepended to whichever authored prompt
won, in one system message, since several endpoints reject a second.

Supporting changes:

- **Sharing**, in one helper. `visible_to()` is the only definition of who can
  see a library item and every listing and tool goes through it. Sharing grants
  *reading*; two people editing one note with no history and no merge is worse
  than copying it. **Administrators do not bypass this** — they bypass
  permissions elsewhere because an admin can grant themselves those anyway, but
  reading somebody's private notes is a different act.
- **FTS5**, created by `db/migrations.py:ensure_fts` with the triggers an
  external-content index needs. Idempotent, like the column sync beside it.
  Terms are ANDed and then ORed: the caller is usually a model writing a whole
  question, and requiring every word loses the match on one absent term.
- **The attach button is a menu** — file, image, a web page, or a document from
  the library. Attaching a document copies it, because history must not change
  when a document is edited later.
- **A URL fetcher with an SSRF guard.** This server can reach the router, the
  other services on the box and LLeMbas itself, and the address can come from a
  model. Private ranges are refused *after resolution* and redirects are followed
  by hand so every hop is checked. An admin can open it deliberately.
- **Model capabilities split** into protocol support and a toggle per built-in
  tool. Rows predating the split have no `tool_*` keys, and absent counts as on
  when `tools` is on — otherwise an upgrade silently takes web search away from
  every model already configured for it.

Also fixes the test fixture, which built the schema with `create_all` and so ran
against a database without the FTS tables production has; it now runs
`sync_schema`, the same path startup takes.

430 tests, ruff clean.
