DidiBrain — Status Snapshot
Last updated: 2026-04-23 (integration session — web-api cache + backend verification cache)
Working dir: /home/admin365/ml-projects/modules/didi_brain/

CONTRACT_VERIFICATION_CACHE.md— contract backend↔brain pentru verification cache (v2, current)../../CHANGES_2026-04-23.md— session changelog cu lista completă de schimbări../web/BRAIN_INTEGRATION.md— integrarea web-api ↔ brain
TL;DR
DidiBrain is SHIP READY și INTEGRATED. Pe lângă contractul inițial HTTP (web-gathering compatibility), brain servește acum și ca:
- Cache layer pentru web-api — premium ingests + read pentru ambele tiers
- Verification cache pentru didi-backend — post-LLM stance/verdict storage cu 4 staleness states (fresh / stale_framework / stale_prompt / miss)
Trei containere, zero regressions pe funcționalitatea v1. Tabelul relational
nou brain_verification_cache trăiește în același Postgres cu atomic-server,
prefix brain_ pentru izolare.
Current state in 30 seconds
3 containers running continuously, all healthy
didibrain-api brain_api FastAPI service :8090 52 MB RAM
didibrain-atomic atomic-server (API only) :8088 83 MB RAM
didibrain-postgres pgvector pg16 :5434 60 MB RAM
(+ brain_verification_cache table)
Brain contents (grow continuously via web-api ingest + manual bootstrap)
79 tags (canonical taxonomy, 7 root namespaces)
19+ documents (initial Wikipedia vaccines seed + anything premium adds)
509+ claims (extracted by Qwen 397B, substring validated)
Verification cache (new in v2 — Apr 23)
brain_verification_cache UNIQUE (claim_hash, tier)
TTL 30 days, max payload 64KB, UPSERT last-wins
4 staleness states exposed via brain_meta
Query latency (measured end-to-end)
/v1/gather with NLI ~5-6 s
/v1/gather no NLI ~1.5-2 s
/v1/search ~200-400 ms
/v1/fetch ~30-100 ms
/v1/image-search ~5 ms (stub)
/v1/ingest variable (atom create + optional async extract)
What it does
Brain-API speaks Didi's existing web-gathering module contract. Didi's
backend can call it like calling the web module today, and switch between
them transparently based on brain_meta.cache_status:
Didi backend ┌───────────────────┐
│ │ DidiBrain │
│ POST /v1/gather {claim} │ (this repo) │
├────────────────────────────────▶│ │
│ │ 1 semantic search│
│ │ 2 BGE rerank │
│ │ 3 NLI stance │
│ │ 4 aggregate │
│◀────────────────────────────────┤ │
│ GatherResponse └───────────────────┘
│ (brain_meta.cache_status = HIT | PARTIAL | MISS)
│
if cache_status == MISS:
fallback = http.post(WEB_MODULE, {claim})
# optional: POST /v1/ingest {fallback.evidence}
# so the brain self-populates from the expensive web module

HTTP API summary — Didi contract
All responses include an additive brain_meta object with cache_status,
api_version, implementation, evidence_sources, and
total_claim_atoms_matched. Unknown fields are safely ignored by older
backends.

The key signal for Didi backend:
response = requests.post(f"{BRAIN_URL}/v1/gather", json={"claim": text})
data = response.json()
if data["brain_meta"]["cache_status"] == "MISS":
# brain does not have relevant knowledge — fall back to live web module
data = requests.post(f"{WEB_MODULE_URL}/v1/gather", json={"claim": text}).json()
# optional: pump it into the brain so next time we HIT
requests.post(f"{BRAIN_URL}/v1/ingest", json={"evidence": data["evidence"]})
Deployment on a server — cheat sheet
Full automated flow:
scp -r didibrain/ user@server:~/
ssh user@server
cd ~/didibrain
cp .env.example .env
vim .env # fill LLM_ROUTER_URL / EMBEDDING_URL / RERANKER_URL
./scripts/bootstrap_deploy.sh
Manual step-by-step is documented in scripts/bootstrap_deploy.sh comments
or in README.md under "Production deploy".
What to change in .env when moving machines
Only the upstream endpoint URLs may need updating:
LLM_ROUTER_URL=http://10.11.10.17:14011 # if router is on VPN, unchanged
EMBEDDING_URL=http://10.11.10.15:8200 # if BGE is on VPN, unchanged
RERANKER_URL=http://10.11.10.15:8100 # if reranker is on VPN, unchanged
Everything else (ATOMIC_URL, ports, model names, Postgres creds) is either
handled by Docker DNS automatically or comes from the same file.
Health checklist — run after any deploy/restart
# 1. Containers healthy
docker ps --format '{{.Names}} {{.Status}}' | grep didibrain
# expected: 3 lines, all "Up ... (healthy)"
# 2. Liveness
curl -fsS http://localhost:8090/health
# expected: {"status":"ok","service":"didibrain-api","version":"0.1.0"}
# 3. Full stack sanity (LLM + embed + rerank + atomic)
.venv/bin/python scripts/01_sanity_full.py
# expected: 8/8 PASS, total <10s
# 4. Brain end-to-end (create atom → embed → search → cleanup)
.venv/bin/python scripts/03_sanity_atomic.py
# expected: 5/5 PASS
# 5. Real Didi-style query
curl -s -X POST http://localhost:8090/v1/gather \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"claim":"vaccines cause autism","max_evidence":3,"run_nli":false}' \
| jq '.brain_meta.cache_status, .total_evidence_items'
# expected: "HIT" and a positive number (if the vaccines corpus is loaded)
Known issues that DO NOT block deploy
-
edges_status column does not exist— atomic-server logs this warning at startup due to an upstream Postgres schema mismatch. The semantic_edges feature in Atomic is partially broken, but nothing we use depends on it: vector search, reranker, claim extraction, and the Didi contract all work. Cosmetic — safe to ignore until upstream Atomic fixes the migration. -
/api/embeddings/statusreturns 500 — same root cause as #1. We never call this endpoint; we readembedding_statusper atom vialist_atomsorget_atominstead. -
Qwen 35B (vLLM on :14001) — thinking mode stuck ON via the router and safety alignment refuses disinfo-extraction tasks. Disabled in config (
MODEL_FAST_ENABLED=false); the whole pipeline runs on Qwen 397B. If a future session un-sticks 35B, Lint pass could speed up ~4x by using it. -
Gemma 31B endpoint (10.11.10.16:8001) — port unreachable (host pings OK). Not used by any feature; listed as optional in
.env. -
Atomic's React UI not running — we only deploy
atomic-server(API), notatomic-web(React frontend).http://localhost:8088/returns 404 for this reason. Brain_api has its own Swagger UI at/docswhich covers dev-testing needs. If visual atom/tag/wiki browsing is needed, add anatomic-webservice to compose (5-minute task).
Troubleshooting — things that have actually gone wrong
| Symptom | Root cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
/health timeouts |
BGE endpoint unreachable (VPN down?) | curl http://10.11.10.15:8200/v1/models on host; bring VPN back |
/v1/gather returns 500 silently |
Same as above — Atomic can't embed the query | Same fix |
| Post-reboot: brain_api empty reply | uvicorn bound to 127.0.0.1 inside container (not 0.0.0.0) | Rebuild — Dockerfile now sets BRAIN_API_HOST=0.0.0.0 |
LLM_ROUTER_URL points to localhost but nothing there |
Router is actually on 10.11.10.17:14011 (not on the dev box) | Update .env; validated in session 2 |
| Claim extraction returns zero claims on a doc | list_atoms returns summary without content; must call get_atom |
Fixed in extractor/batch.py |
| NLI responses come back as NEUTRAL with confidence 0.0 | MAX_PARALLEL > backend concurrency → timeouts | Set MAX_PARALLEL=2 to match 2 llama.cpp instances |
| Wikipedia API 403 on every request | Non-compliant User-Agent | Use DidiBrain/0.1 (https://github.com/didibrain; didibrain@local.test) |
What is NOT done (all optional, not blockers)
- Bearer auth on brain_api — skipped intentionally. Add when exposing beyond loopback on a server with a public IP.
- Full Lint pass on vaccines corpus — skipped. Wikipedia is too internally consistent for Lint to surface many contradictions; rerun after corpus diversification (B).
- Corpus expansion (B) — next session. Wikipedia seeds for RO elections 2024, Russia-Ukraine war, climate, COVID general. Also RSS feeds and possibly Playwright adapters for non-Wiki sources.
/v1/contradictionsendpoint in brain_api — currently contradictions are only visible viascripts/11_show_contradictions.py. Expose over HTTP when Didi needs programmatic access.- Atomic React UI (
atomic-web) — optional visual browsing, add if useful for operators. - Monitoring / metrics — no Prometheus exporter yet.
- Upstream schema fix for
edges_status— cosmetic, PR to kenforthewin/atomic.
Session log (condensed)
Session 1 (2026-04-10, ~6 hours)
- Full audit of upstream Atomic repo
- Validated LLM/embed/rerank stack (8 sanity checks PASS)
- Built
shared/+extractor/+ scripts 01-08 - Stood up Atomic + Postgres in compose
- Imported 19 Wikipedia vaccines articles, EN + RO
- Extracted 513 claims via Qwen 397B (1.2% hallucination drop)
- Validated claim-level retrieval (cross-lingual RO↔EN confirmed)
Session 2 (2026-04-11, ~4 hours)
- Re-onboarded state after VPN restart (fixed LLM router URL)
- Built
brain_api/FastAPI service with 5-endpoint Didi contract - Dockerized brain_api (self-sufficient startup, taxonomy refresh from atomic)
- Added NLI stance-vs-query pass in
/v1/gather(additive fields inbrain_meta) - Fixed NLI concurrency (MAX_PARALLEL=2 matches llama.cpp backends)
- Built
lint/contradiction detection module with idempotent state file - Smoke-tested Lint (371 pairs, 1 genuine contradiction found at 0.95 confidence)
- Wrote deployment bootstrap script
- Wrote this STATUS.md and the new README.md
Next session — pick-up plan
Brain is in a stable end-of-session state. To resume:
- Verify infra is alive (
docker ps | grep didibrain) - If it is not,
docker compose -f infra/docker-compose.yml --env-file .env up -d - Run
.venv/bin/python scripts/01_sanity_full.pyto confirm upstream stack - Decide: corpus expansion (B), Lint full run, new feature, or deploy to server
Natural next step is corpus expansion. The code paths are complete; everything else is about feeding the brain more knowledge and then running the existing scripts over the new data.
