Closes #1755. Gates Phase A3 (drop agent_memories) per the #1733 sequencing — A3 cannot land until this is in production or workspace creation with initial_memories breaks.

Phase 1 — Investigation

After PR #1747 (Phase A1) lands, the MCP memory tools (commit_memory, recall_memory) read and write exclusively through the v2 plugin. But seedInitialMemories still INSERTed directly into the legacy agent_memories table at workspace-create time. Result: a workspace provisioned with initial_memories from a template had rows in agent_memories that were invisible to recall_memory — every fresh workspace silently had no seeded memory.

Flagged in the #1747 hostile review (finding C3) and deliberately deferred to keep that PR small. This PR is that deferral.

Phase 2 — Design

  • Branch off #1737 (awareness backend removal — it already does the seedInitialMemories signature pre-work this PR needs: drops awarenessNamespace param, renames helper to workspaceMemoryNamespace).
  • New seedMemoryPluginAPI interface on WorkspaceHandler — the slice of *client.Client (memory/client) that seedInitialMemories needs (CommitMemory only). Parallel to MCPHandler's memoryPluginAPI.
  • New WithSeedMemoryPlugin setter — main.go wires this alongside WithNamespaceCleanup when MEMORY_PLUGIN_URL is set (memBundle.Plugin).
  • seedInitialMemories converted from package-level function to method on *WorkspaceHandler.
  • Three call sites updated:
    • workspace.go:606Create handler
    • org.go:807 — org-template global memories
    • org_import.go:261 — per-workspace initial_memories
  • When plugin is nil (operator hasn't set MEMORY_PLUGIN_URL): log a loud warning + skip. No SQL fallback — that's consistent with A1's semantics.
  • Truncation + redaction order preserved exactly.
  • Plugin commit errors are non-fatal: loop continues, mirroring the original "each insert is independent" contract.

Phase 3 — Changes

File Diff
internal/handlers/workspace.go +27 LOC — new seedMemoryPlugin field, seedMemoryPluginAPI interface, WithSeedMemoryPlugin setter, contract import
internal/handlers/workspace_provision.go +37 / −14 — seedInitialMemories migrated to method, routes through plugin.CommitMemory with Kind=fact Source=runtime
internal/handlers/workspace.go, org.go, org_import.go call site updates (h.seedInitialMemories(...) / h.workspace.seedInitialMemories(...))
cmd/server/main.go +6 — wire wh.WithSeedMemoryPlugin(memBundle.Plugin)
internal/handlers/workspace_provision_test.go +163 / −136 — stubSeedPlugin test helper, 8 existing tests rewritten for the plugin-capture pattern, 2 new tests for the plugin-not-wired + plugin-commit-error contracts

Net: +270, −136 LOC.

Source / Kind decisions

  • Source = MemorySourceRuntime — the platform (not the agent) is writing these on the agent's behalf at provision time. Distinct from agent (commit_memory MCP call) and user (canvas write).
  • Kind = MemoryKindFact — seeded memories are factual baseline knowledge, not session summaries or runtime checkpoints.

Verify before merge if you want a different attribution.

Scope handling change

The v2 plugin's data model has no scope column. All seeded memories land in the workspace's workspace:<id> namespace. Pre-A1 callers wrote TEAM/GLOBAL-scoped seeds into agent_memories with namespace=workspace:<id> anyway (the scope column was set but namespace was always workspace:<id>), so this is:

  • Behaviour-preserving for LOCAL scope.
  • No-op-shrink for TEAM/GLOBAL — those scopes were never propagated to other workspaces at seed time anyway. Agents can promote a seeded memory to a higher namespace later via an explicit commit_memory_v2 call.

Stage A

  • go vet ./... clean.
  • go test -short -count=1 ./... green across every package.
  • Targeted run of every TestSeedInitialMemories_* (10 tests including 2 new):
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_TruncatesOversizedContent
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_RedactsSecrets
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_InvalidScopeSkipped
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_EmptyMemoriesNil
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_Truncation
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_ContentUnderLimit
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_ExactlyAtLimit
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_EmptyContent
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_OversizedWithSecrets
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_PluginNotWired_LogsAndSkips  (new)
    PASS: TestSeedInitialMemories_PluginCommitError_ContinuesLoop  (new)
    

Stage B/C — defer to staging deploy after the gating PRs land.

Sequencing

  • Branched on top of PR #1737. When #1737 merges, this rebases cleanly onto main with the seed-migration as the only delta.
  • Land order: #1737#1742#1747this. When #1747 merges, the v1 fallback is gone and this PR's "skip when plugin not wired" semantics become the only behaviour.

Gating Phase A3

Phase A3 (drop agent_memories table) requires this PR to land first. After this ships:

  • New workspaces with initial_memories → plugin.
  • Pre-A1 workspaces with rows in agent_memories → migrated by the one-shot Phase A2 backfill (cmd/memory-backfill, separate ops task).
  • A3 can then DROP TABLE agent_memories with no live writers.

Risks

  • Operators without MEMORY_PLUGIN_URL set lose seed-memory functionality. Acceptable trade-off for SSOT and consistent with A1's posture. The log line is operator-actionable ("set MEMORY_PLUGIN_URL on platform-tenant").
  • TEAM/GLOBAL-scoped seeds become workspace-local under v2. Pre-A1 behaviour was actually the same in practice (always written to workspace:<id> namespace regardless of scope label) — this PR just makes that explicit and drops the never-meaningful scope label.
  • Source=runtime attribution is new — verify it matches your expectations for canvas-side filtering. Easy to change in a follow-up.

Tier

area:memory tier:medium — DDL-adjacent (gates a table drop), tests cover the new contract end-to-end via stubs. Two non-author approvals per dev-sop §SOP-6.

SOP Checklist (RFC #351)

1. Comprehensive testing performed

  • go vet ./... clean.
  • go test -short -count=1 ./... green across all packages.
  • Targeted TestSeedInitialMemories_* (11 tests total, 3 new): all pass.
  • Log-capture assertions added on PluginNotWired_LogsAndSkips and PluginCommitError_ContinuesLoop so operator-visibility regressions are caught.
  • New PartialFailure_CounterIsAccurate covers the mixed success/failure batch case (the seeded N/M summary log).

2. Local-postgres E2E run

N/A: no DB schema change, no new migration. The deleted SQL path (legacy INSERT INTO agent_memories) is replaced by a plugin HTTP call; remaining DB contracts (in workspaces, etc.) are unchanged. Existing sqlmock tests in adjacent paths cover the workspace-create row INSERT that runs alongside the seed.

3. Staging-smoke verified or pending

Scheduled post-merge — gated on #1742 + #1747 landing first (this PR routes through the v2 plugin which doesn't exist on tenants pre-#1742). Stage C is: provision a workspace with initial_memories: [...] on agent-team; verify recall_memory returns the seeded entries; verify MemoryInspectorPanel shows them under the runtime-source badge.

4. Root-cause not symptom

Root cause: post-A1 (#1747) the MCP memory read path was migrated to v2, but the write path for seedInitialMemories was left writing into agent_memories. The symptom — "fresh workspace with seeded memories returns 'No memories found' on the first recall_memory call" — is downstream of the root cause "writer and reader landed in different stores." This PR moves the writer to match the reader.

5. Five-Axis review walked

Yes. Hostile Five-Axis review dispatched, returned APPROVE-with-nits (no critical findings). All non-blocking nits (log-capture assertions, partial-failure test) actioned in commit 26b8539e.

6. No backwards-compat shim / dead code added

None inside this PR's delta (the diff is +270/−136). The "skip + log when plugin not wired" branch is a fail-soft for self-hosted operators without MEMORY_PLUGIN_URL — explicit operator-actionable warning, not silent fallback. There is no SQL fallback.

7. Memory/saved-feedback consulted

  • feedback_no_single_source_of_truth — drives the migration: writer and reader must land on the same store.
  • reference_merge_gate_model_changed_2026_05_18 — informs gating expectations.
  • feedback_per_agent_gitea_identity_default — approving agents under their own Gitea persona.

Drop the entire `Awareness namespace` memory-routing plumbing. The
feature was wired through migrations, models, the provisioner, and
several handlers but was never enabled in any environment — the
2026-05-23 sweep against the Railway controlplane (project
molecule-platform, prod env 59227671-…, staging env 639539ec-…) found
zero `AWARENESS_*` env vars set, and the operator-host bootstrap files
(`/etc/molecule-bootstrap/all-credentials.env`, `secrets.env`,
`agent-secrets.env`) likewise had no awareness entries. The provisioner
already only injected the env vars when both URL and namespace were
non-empty (so workspace containers also never received them).

Scope:
- Drop `workspaces.awareness_namespace` column via new forward migration
  `20260523130000_drop_workspaces_awareness_namespace.up.sql` (mirrors
  the recent `drop_runtime_image_pins` shape; paired down migration
  restores migration 010 verbatim).
- Drop `Workspace.AwarenessNamespace` from the model.
- Drop `WorkspaceConfig.AwarenessURL` + `AwarenessNamespace` and the
  conditional env injection in `internal/provisioner/provisioner.go`.
- Drop `workspaceAwarenessNamespace` + `loadAwarenessNamespace`, rename
  the one-line helper to `workspaceMemoryNamespace` (still produces the
  canonical `workspace:<id>` string matching the v2 namespace resolver
  at `internal/memory/namespace/resolver.go:186`).
- `seedInitialMemories` drops its `awarenessNamespace` parameter and
  computes the namespace inline — the parameter was always
  `workspace:<workspaceID>` at every call site, so the value is a pure
  function of the workspace id.
- Update three INSERT call sites (`workspace.go`, `org_import.go`) and
  the org-import root-memory seed in `org.go`.
- Trim `awareness_namespace` from the create-handler response payload.
- Remove ~22 awareness-specific test assertions and SQL-mock arg
  placeholders across `handlers_test.go`, `handlers_additional_test.go`,
  `workspace_test.go`, `workspace_provision_test.go`,
  `workspace_compute_test.go`, `workspace_budget_test.go`,
  `workspace_create_name_integration_test.go`, and
  `provisioner_test.go`.

The `agent_memories.namespace` column (added by migration 017) is
unaffected — seedInitialMemories continues to write `workspace:<id>`
into it, just computed inline now.

Canvas-side cleanup (the `<iframe>` block in `MemoryTab.tsx` reading
`NEXT_PUBLIC_AWARENESS_URL`) is deliberately deferred — it overlaps
with the rewrite landing in #1734 and goes in after that to avoid the
merge conflict.

Verification:
- `go vet ./...` clean.
- `go test -short -count=1 ./...` green (~30 packages).
- Migration round-trip verified on a throwaway `postgres:16-alpine`
  container: up drops the column, down restores it to the same
  `text` type as migration 010.

#1737 deletes the awareness_namespace column from `workspaces` and the
provisioner env injection that backed it. Two API-spec lines still
describe the field as if it were live, which would mislead any
external integrator reading the docs against a post-#1737 backend:

- docs/api-reference.md:106 listed `awareness_namespace` as a column
  on the `workspaces` row.
- docs/api-protocol/platform-api.md:93 claimed workspace creation
  "assigns an awareness_namespace on the workspace row" and the
  namespace is "later injected into the provisioned runtime".

Both are factually wrong post-#1737. Patched.

The broader docs sweep (~30 more references across
`docs/architecture/memory.md`, `docs/agent-runtime/*`, READMEs,
superpowers plans, etc.) is tracked in #1753 as a docs-only
follow-up — those are narrative / handbook copy, not contract.

#1753 (docs sweep follow-up), review-finding C3 (API doc contradiction).

Closes #1755. Gates Phase A3 (drop agent_memories) per the #1733
sequencing — A3 cannot land until this PR is in production, or
workspace creation with seeded initial_memories breaks.

## Problem

After PR #1747 (Phase A1) lands, the MCP memory tools (commit_memory,
recall_memory) read and write exclusively through the v2 plugin. But
seedInitialMemories was still INSERTing directly into the legacy
agent_memories table at workspace-create time. Result: a workspace
provisioned with `initial_memories` from a template had rows in
agent_memories that were invisible to recall_memory — every fresh
workspace silently had no seeded memory.

Flagged in the #1747 hostile review (finding C3) and deliberately
deferred to keep that PR small. This PR is that deferral.

## Change

- New `seedMemoryPluginAPI` interface on WorkspaceHandler — the slice
  of `*client.Client` (memory/client) that seedInitialMemories needs
  (CommitMemory only). Parallel to MCPHandler's memoryPluginAPI.
- New `WithSeedMemoryPlugin` setter — main.go wires this alongside
  WithNamespaceCleanup when MEMORY_PLUGIN_URL is set
  (memBundle.Plugin).
- seedInitialMemories converted from package-level function to method
  on *WorkspaceHandler. Three call sites updated:
  - workspace.go:606 — Create handler
  - org.go:807 — org-template global memories
  - org_import.go:261 — per-workspace initial_memories
- Routes through h.seedMemoryPlugin.CommitMemory(ctx, "workspace:<id>",
  contract.MemoryWrite{Content, Kind=fact, Source=runtime}).
  - Source=runtime distinguishes platform-seeded memories from
    agent-written (Source=agent) and canvas-written (Source=user).
  - All seeds land in the workspace's own `workspace:<id>` namespace.
    Pre-A1 callers wrote TEAM/GLOBAL-scoped seeds with
    namespace=workspace:<id> in agent_memories anyway, so behaviour-
    preserving for LOCAL and a no-op-shrink for TEAM/GLOBAL (agent
    can promote later via commit_memory_v2).
- When the plugin is nil (operator hasn't set MEMORY_PLUGIN_URL),
  seedInitialMemories logs a loud warning with operator-actionable
  hint and SKIPS the seed batch — there is no SQL fallback after A1.
  Self-hosted operators without v2 wired get a clear signal that
  seeded memories from templates aren't persisted on their deployment.
- Truncation + redaction order preserved exactly:
  1. Validate scope (LOCAL/TEAM/GLOBAL).
  2. Skip empty content.
  3. Truncate to maxMemoryContentLength (100 KiB, CWE-400 cap).
  4. Apply redactSecrets.
  5. Plugin commit.
- Plugin commit errors are non-fatal: loop continues for the next
  seed, mirroring the original "each insert is attempted
  independently" contract.

## Tests

8 existing seedInitialMemories tests rewritten + 2 new ones:

| Test | Coverage |
|---|---|
| TestSeedInitialMemories_TruncatesOversizedContent | Parameterized truncation contract at the 100k boundary; asserts on plugin.calls[0].Body.Content length |
| TestSeedInitialMemories_RedactsSecrets | Redaction fires before plugin commit |
| TestSeedInitialMemories_InvalidScopeSkipped | Invalid scope = no plugin call |
| TestSeedInitialMemories_EmptyMemoriesNil | Nil slice = no plugin call |
| TestSeedInitialMemories_Truncation | Plain truncation, plugin sees 100k |
| TestSeedInitialMemories_ContentUnderLimit | Under-limit content passes through unchanged |
| TestSeedInitialMemories_ExactlyAtLimit | Boundary case (== limit) — no truncation |
| TestSeedInitialMemories_EmptyContent | Empty content skipped |
| TestSeedInitialMemories_OversizedWithSecrets | Truncation BEFORE redaction; raw secret literal never reaches plugin |
| TestSeedInitialMemories_PluginNotWired_LogsAndSkips | **NEW** — fail-soft when MEMORY_PLUGIN_URL unset |
| TestSeedInitialMemories_PluginCommitError_ContinuesLoop | **NEW** — each plugin call is independent; one failure doesn't abort the batch |

Test infrastructure: new `stubSeedPlugin` captures every plugin call
for assertion (parallel to `stubMemoryPlugin` in mcp_tools_memory_v2_
test.go).

## Stage A

- `go vet ./...` clean.
- `go test -short -count=1 ./...` green across every package
  (workspace-server unit + integration suites).
- Stage B / C deferred to staging deploy after PR #1742 (A0 schema
  isolation) and PR #1747 (A1 v1-fallback removal) land.

## Sequencing

- Branched on top of PR #1737 (awareness backend removal — it does
  the seedInitialMemories signature pre-work this PR needs).
- Land order: #1737#1742#1747 → this. When #1737 merges, this
  branch rebases cleanly onto main with the seed-migration as the
  only delta. When #1747 merges, the v1 fallback is gone and this
  PR's "skip when plugin not wired" semantics become the only
  behaviour.

## Gating Phase A3

Phase A3 (drop agent_memories table) requires this to land first.
After this ships:
- New workspaces with initial_memories → plugin.
- Pre-A1 workspaces with rows in agent_memories → migrated by the
  one-shot Phase A2 backfill (cmd/memory-backfill, separate ops
  task).
- A3 can then DROP TABLE agent_memories with no live writers.

Refs: closes #1755, follow-up to #1747 review finding C3, gates
Phase A3 of #1733.

Three review findings from the #1759 hostile re-review:

1. `TestSeedInitialMemories_PluginNotWired_LogsAndSkips` only asserted
   "doesn't panic, doesn't error" — didn't capture log output. A
   future refactor that drops the operator warning would regress
   silently. Added a captureSeedLogs helper (mirrors the captureLogs
   pattern in internal/memory/wiring/wiring_test.go) and three
   substring assertions pinning the operator-facing message:
   - "v2 memory plugin not wired" (operator-actionable phrasing)
   - "MEMORY_PLUGIN_URL" (the env var to set)
   - The workspace ID (so the log line is diagnosable per-workspace)

2. `TestSeedInitialMemories_PluginCommitError_ContinuesLoop` asserted
   the attempt count but not that each failure produced an
   individual log line. Added captureSeedLogs around the call and
   asserted exactly 3 "plugin commit failed" lines plus the
   underlying error message text ("plugin down"). Without this, a
   "swallow errors" regression in the loop would pass the count
   assertion silently.

3. New `TestSeedInitialMemories_PartialFailure_CounterIsAccurate` —
   the original test set fails ALL plugin calls; the successful tests
   succeed all of them. There was no coverage for the mixed case
   (some succeed, some fail), so the `seeded %d/%d` summary log line
   could regress from "tracks actual successes" to "tracks attempts"
   undetected. New test uses an alternatingFailingPlugin helper to
   alternate success/failure across 4 seeds, then asserts
   "seeded 2/4 memories" appears in the captured output.

Refs: #1759 review findings N1 (log-capture, partial-success
coverage), all non-blocking but worth tightening.

/sop-n/a security-review backend-only refactor with redaction parity preserved (SAFE-T1201 redactSecrets still called pre-commit on every path); no new auth/secret surface introduced. Mutation-tested in the Five-Axis re-review.
