# Session Seal: 2026-04-06 15:00

## Key Decisions

- **Removed 4 redundant/broken MCP servers** from `C:\Users\User\.claude.json`:
  - `arifos` (was broken — missing `arifosmcp.memory` + unresolved Windows symlink for `core`)
  - `cloudflare-workers` (failed + redundant with `claude.ai Cloudflare Developer Platform`)
  - `notion` (VPS unreachable + redundant with `claude.ai Notion`)
  - `context7` (triplicated — local + claude.ai + plugin; removed local copy)
- **27 → 23 MCP servers** total. No broken entries remain.
- **Root cause of `arifos` failure** identified and fixed:
  1. `core` is a Windows text-symlink (`../core` as file content) — PYTHONPATH must include `C:/ariffazil/arifOS` for `core` to resolve
  2. `arifosmcp.memory.shared_memory_mcp` module was missing entirely (blocked import chain)
- **`arifos` MCP restored** with corrected PYTHONPATH: `C:/ariffazil/arifOS;C:/ariffazil/arifOS/arifosmcp`
- **`arifosmcp.memory` package created** — this was the "missing vertebra" blocking 555_MEMORY
- **Confirmed**: `engineering_memory` vector modes (vector_query, vector_store, vector_forget, engineer, generate, query) were already implemented in `tools_internal.engineering_memory_dispatch_impl` — not missing, just unreachable due to import failure

## Files Modified

- `C:/Users/User/.claude.json`: Removed 4 MCP entries; restored `arifos` with fixed PYTHONPATH
- `C:/arifosmcp/arifosmcp/memory/__init__.py`: New — package init for 555_MEMORY subsystem
- `C:/arifosmcp/arifosmcp/memory/shared_memory_mcp.py`: New — Redis hot-scratchpad (F1/F13 governed, get/set/list/clear/expire)
- `C:/ariffazil/arifOS/arifosmcp/.gitignore`: Scoped `memory/` exclusion to data files only (`.db/.jsonl/.bin`), not Python source
- **Committed**: `aedea4b6` on `arifosmcp` submodule

## Constitutional Audit

- Verdicts: 4 SEAL, 0 PARTIAL, 0 VOID
- Floor violations: None
- F1 AMANAH: All changes reversible (MCP config edits, new files only, no destructive ops)
- F2 TRUTH: Root cause verified by import testing before fix; not assumed
- F11 COMMAND AUTH: No credential edits; PYTHONPATH fix only
- F12 INJECTION: No eval/exec patterns introduced

## Unresolved

- `core` Windows symlink still a text file (7 bytes, `../core`) — git shows it as `deleted` in `arifosmcp` submodule. Pre-existing issue; not introduced today. Actual `C:/ariffazil/arifOS/core/` directory is intact.
- `psutil` missing in local venv (`webmcp/live_metrics.py`) — non-blocking warning, not investigated
- `vault_ledger` still JSONL backend, not Merkle+zkPC (Phase 3 backlog)
- `physics_reality` F3 Tri-Witness still routes to single web search (Phase 3 backlog)
- Gemini `mcp_config.json` has `context7` still present (user selected lines shown at session close — Gemini config not updated, only Claude Code config was)
- `arif-site` submodule shows uncommitted changes at root level

## Next Session Priorities

1. **Verify `arifos` MCP reconnects** — run `/mcp` and confirm `arifos · ✔ connected`
2. **Fix `core` Windows symlink** — recreate as proper NTFS junction or directory copy so git stops showing it as deleted
3. **Update Gemini `mcp_config.json`** — mirror the same MCP cleanup (remove redundant `context7`, broken entries)
4. **Phase 3: `vault_ledger` Merkle hardening** — replace JSONL with proper append-only structure
5. **`psutil` install** in local venv: `C:/ariffazil/arifOS/arifosmcp/.venv/Scripts/pip install psutil`

## Context to Restore

- Working paths: `C:/ariffazil/arifOS/` (arifOS root), `C:/arifosmcp/arifosmcp/` (same dir via junction)
- Installed package path: venv at `C:/ariffazil/arifOS/arifosmcp/.venv/` → installs from `C:/arifosmcp/arifosmcp/`
- MCP config: `C:/Users/User/.claude.json` (15 local entries, 11 after cleanup + restored arifos = 12)
- Key insight: `C:/ariffazil/arifOS/arifosmcp/core` is a 7-byte text file containing `../core` — not a real dir. Always set PYTHONPATH to include `C:/ariffazil/arifOS` to resolve `core.*` imports
- `claude.ai arifOS` remote MCP is the stable fallback — always connected when local breaks
- `engineering_memory` vector layer is COMPLETE in `tools_internal.py`. The `shared_memory_mcp` was the only missing piece.
