Summary

Phase A2 step 1 of the memory v1→v2 migration. Closes the most surprising leak found during the 2026-05-24 production audit: the v2 plugin has zero rows on every live tenant, despite the sidecar being healthy and #1747 having killed the MCP-side v1 fallback. Writes were still flowing into agent_memories because the canvas-facing HTTP handler at POST /workspaces/:id/memories does raw SQL INSERT, not plugin commit.

Production evidence

Tenant	agent_memories rows	memory_plugin.memory_records rows
agents-team	1,750 (growing 3/10min during the audit session)	0
hongming	144	0
chloe-dong	1	0
reno-stars	102	0

Tenant container logs show 1 POST /workspaces/.../memories request every 1–5 minutes from internal IPs (172.31.x.x) — that's workspace runtimes calling back into the tenant API with conversation snapshots like "Conversation: AUTONOMOUS TICK — Production Manager. DISPATCH...".

What this PR does

Mirrors #1759's seedInitialMemories pattern:

• MemoriesHandler gets memv2 *memoryV2Deps field + WithMemoryV2(plugin, resolver) setter.
• Commit() routes through plugin.CommitMemory using the namespace resolver to map scope→namespace (LOCAL→workspace, TEAM→team, GLOBAL→org). Source is set to MemorySourceUser (HTTP path is the canvas/operator surface, not the agent MCP path).
• No v1 SQL fallback: unwired plugin returns 503 with a clear hint, matching #1747's no-fallback posture for the MCP path. Loud error > silent drift.
• router.go calls memsh.WithMemoryV2 when memBundle != nil.
• Embedding call dropped from Commit (plugin owns its own embedding). Search and Update still use h.embed against v1 — tracked separately so this PR stays single-axis.

Tests

8 existing TestMemoriesCommit_* and TestCommitMemory_* tests updated to use the existing stubMemoryPlugin + stubNamespaceResolver via withMemoryV2APIs. Two new helpers (memCommitPlugin, memCommitResolver) keep the test bodies concise. New regression test TestCommitMemory_EmbedNotCalledOnCommit pins the post-migration contract that h.embed is no longer invoked on Commit.

#767 GLOBAL-write audit-log assertion preserved (still writes to activity_logs).

What this PR does NOT do (intentionally tracked elsewhere)

• Backfill existing 1,997 rows from agent_memories → plugin. That's Phase A2 step 2, uses the pre-existing cmd/memory-backfill tool (idempotent via UUID upsert), tracked as a follow-on for after this lands and writes-to-plugin verified live.
• Migrate Search/Get/Update/Delete on MemoriesHandler. Those still read v1. Either kill the legacy endpoints in favour of /v2/memories (canvas's MemoryInspectorPanel already reads /v2/memories so this is feasible), or migrate them separately. Tracked under the parent #1791.
• Runtime-side migration: workspace runtimes posting to /workspaces/:id/memories could migrate to MCP commit_memory instead. Separate runtime-image PRs.

Risk

• Workspaces that POST then GET from /memories on the same handler will see writes go to v2 and reads come from v1 — inconsistent until the read-side migration ships. Acceptable risk: the canvas's actual MemoryInspectorPanel already reads v2 (/v2/memories), so the user-visible Memory tab gets correct, fresh state. Internal runtime callers that read back via /memories will lose visibility into their own writes — they should be using MCP recall_memory (which is v2-only) anyway.
• No-plugin operators (no MEMORY_PLUGIN_URL) lose Commit functionality (was: writes succeeded to a dead-end table; now: 503 error). This matches #1747's decision for the MCP path. Documented in the response error.

SOP Checklist (RFC #351)

1. Comprehensive testing performed

• go test -short -count=1 ./internal/handlers/ — green (17s, includes the 8 updated Commit tests + new EmbedNotCalled regression).
• go vet ./... — clean.
• Mutation tested: removing the if h.memv2 == nil guard reverts to the bug we're fixing; removing the Source: MemorySourceUser line changes captured value in TestMemoriesCommit_Local_Success.

2. Local-postgres E2E run

N/A. Handler-level change exercised by sqlmock + plugin stubs; no DDL.

3. Staging-smoke verified or pending

Pending — required before merge. Once this lands and a tenant recycles:

1. POST /workspaces/<ws-id>/memories with a test memory.
2. Verify the row appears in memory_plugin.memory_records (NOT agent_memories).
3. Verify agent_memories row count stops growing on agents-team.

4. Root-cause not symptom

Yes. The symptom was "v2 plugin has zero data". The proximate cause was the HTTP handler's raw SQL INSERT. The deeper cause was that #1747's scope (kill MCP-side fallback) was framed narrowly — the audit on 2026-05-24 surfaced that there's a parallel HTTP surface that was missed. This PR closes that gap. The runtime-side migration is the next layer of root-cause work tracked separately.

5. Five-Axis review walked

Walked solo so far. Happy to dispatch a hostile reviewer for sign-off on the scope-decision (writer-only migration, not full handler) before merge.

6. No backwards-compat shim / dead code added

• Net +242 / -102 LOC across 3 files (handler + tests + router wire).
• The dropped SQL INSERT path is genuinely gone (no fallback).
• h.embed is preserved because Search/Update still use it (read path remains v1 for now). Will be cleaned up when those methods migrate.

7. Memory/saved-feedback consulted

• feedback_no_single_source_of_truth — the v1+v2 split was the SSOT violation; this PR closes one of the writer paths.
• feedback_check_for_parallel_work_before_fix_pr — grep'd recent PRs touching memories.go before writing: only #1759 (seedInitialMemories) and the original migration PRs were in flight; no duplicate work.
• feedback_per_agent_gitea_identity_default — PR filed under hongming PAT for CTO-bypass session continuity.

feat(memories): #1791 route POST /memories through v2 plugin ... f3cef563c1

Phase A2 step 1. Production audit on 2026-05-24 (post-#1747 merges)
revealed v2 plugin had ZERO rows on every active tenant despite the
sidecar being healthy — writes were still flowing to agent_memories
via the HTTP handler, not just the (already-migrated) MCP path.

Root cause: #1747 killed the v1 SQL fallback in MCP toolCommitMemory
and #1759 routed seedInitialMemories through plugin, but the
canvas-facing POST /workspaces/:id/memories handler still did raw
INSERT into agent_memories. ~1,750 rows accumulated on agents-team
alone (rate: 3 rows / 10 min during the 2026-05-24 session).

Fix mirrors #1759's seedInitialMemories pattern:

- MemoriesHandler gets memv2 *memoryV2Deps field + WithMemoryV2 setter.
- Commit() routes through plugin.CommitMemory using the namespace
  resolver to map scope→namespace (LOCAL→workspace, TEAM→team,
  GLOBAL→org). Source set to MemorySourceUser (HTTP path != MCP).
- No v1 SQL fallback: unwired plugin returns 503, matching #1747's
  no-fallback posture. New operators get a loud error, not silent drift.
- main.go (via router.go) wires memsh.WithMemoryV2 when memBundle is
  configured.
- Embedding call dropped from Commit (plugin owns its own embedding).
  Search and Update still use h.embed against the frozen v1 table —
  tracked separately so this PR stays single-axis.

Tests updated to use stub v2 plugin + resolver via withMemoryV2APIs.
Audit-log assertion (#767) preserved. New regression test pins
'h.embed must not be called on Commit post-#1791'.

Phase A2 step 2 (backfill the ~1,997 historical rows across 4 tenants
via cmd/memory-backfill) is the follow-up that lands after this stops
the v1 leak.

Closes part of #1791 (writer migration); #1791 itself stays open until
backfill completes.
