-> High-performance memory for Claude Flow V3 — one canonical `MemoryService` API on top of a real hybrid backend (sql.js + AgentDB), persistent HNSW vector search that survives restart, a memory-bound consolidator, graceful keyword (FTS5) fallback when the embedder isn't available, plus the AutoMemoryBridge, self-learning, and knowledge-graph layers that build on top.
-
-## What's new in `3.0.0-alpha.18` (ADR-125)
-
-This release closes out [ADR-125 — Memory Consolidation](../../../v3/docs/adr/ADR-125-memory-consolidation.md). If you're upgrading from `3.0.0-alpha.17` or earlier, this is the headline:
-
-- **One canonical entry point.** `MemoryService` replaces the old `UnifiedMemoryService` name (both still exported — the old one is `@deprecated` and will be removed at `3.0.0-rc`). See [Migration](#migrating-from-30-0-alpha-17-or-earlier) below.
-- **A real hybrid default.** `createHybridService(...)` finally returns a service whose backend is an actual `HybridBackend` (sql.js + AgentDB). Earlier releases silently downgraded this to AgentDB-only — ADR-009's promise wasn't delivered until now.
-- **Persistent HNSW.** Closing a service snapshots its HNSW index to a sidecar (`<dbPath>.hnsw` + `<dbPath>.meta.json`). Reopening on the same path restores in milliseconds rather than rebuilding from scratch — search-ready cold start.
-- **`MemoryConsolidator`.** A background service that evicts expired entries from indexes *and* HNSW, deduplicates by content hash, and rebuilds the HNSW index when it gets fragmented. Auto-runs on a configurable timer (default 6 hours) so memory stays bounded.
-- **Graceful retrieval.** `service.search('query')` no longer throws when `@claude-flow/embeddings` is unavailable — it degrades to FTS5 keyword search and emits `health.embedder = 'degraded'`. The full hybrid path also adds real Reciprocal Rank Fusion + MMR diversity rerank.
-- **Reproducible benchmarks.** `npm run bench` now actually runs. The HNSW search baseline (single-threaded, 1k × 128-dim cosine vectors on Apple Silicon, Node 22): **0.53 ms / search · 1,889 ops/s · 533 ms to build 1k**. See [`benchmarks/results/baseline-20260519T212453Z.md`](./benchmarks/results/baseline-20260519T212453Z.md).
-- **Node 26 install support** ([#1867](https://github.com/ruvnet/ruflo/issues/1867)) — `better-sqlite3` is fully optional; installs succeed on Node 24/26 and the package falls back to sql.js when the native build isn't available.
-

-
-## Installation
-
-```bash
-npm install @claude-flow/memory
-```
-
-## Standalone use (without the Ruflo CLI)
-
-This package works on its own — you don't need `@claude-flow/cli` or the
-full Ruflo install. Use it any time you want HNSW vector search, an
-AgentDB façade, or the v3 controller registry from your own app.
-
-Two recipes that exercise the most-installed surface:
-
-### Recipe 1 — HNSW index with built-in quantization (no other deps)
-
-```typescript
-// recipe.mjs
-import { HNSWIndex } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-const index = new HNSWIndex({
-  dimensions: 8,
-  M: 16,
-  efConstruction: 200,
-  metric: 'cosine',
-});
-
-// Add a few vectors
-await index.addPoint('doc-a', new Float32Array([1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]));
-await index.addPoint('doc-b', new Float32Array([0.9, 0.1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]));
-await index.addPoint('doc-c', new Float32Array([0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]));
-
-// Search — top 2 nearest to "doc-a"-shaped query
-const hits = await index.search(new Float32Array([1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]), 2);
-console.log(hits); // [{ id: 'doc-a', distance: 0 }, { id: 'doc-b', distance: ~0.005 }]
-```
-
-### Recipe 2 — Drive the controller registry against your own AgentDB
-
-The registry coordinates 15+ memory controllers (learning bridge, memory
-graph, tiered cache, vector backend, etc.) on top of an AgentDB instance
-you own. Useful when you already have an AgentDB lifecycle and just
-want the v3 governance layer (issue #2019 added the `agentdb` injection
-field that makes this clean).
-
-```typescript
-import { ControllerRegistry } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-import { AgentDB } from 'agentdb';
-
-const agentdb = new AgentDB({ dbPath: ':memory:' });
-await agentdb.initialize();
-
-const registry = new ControllerRegistry();
-await registry.initialize({ agentdb });
-
-// Now everything backed by AgentDB is reachable through the registry
-const reflexion = registry.get('reflexion');     // ReflexionMemory
-const vectorBackend = registry.get('vectorBackend'); // live vector backend
-const enabled = registry.isEnabled('skills');    // true
-
-const health = await registry.healthCheck();
-console.log(`${health.activeControllers}/${health.controllers.length} controllers active`);
-
-await registry.shutdown();
-```
-
-## Quick Start
-
-The fastest way to get a full-featured memory service — hybrid backend, HNSW vector index, FTS5 keyword fallback, persistent snapshots, consolidation timer — is `createHybridService`:
-
-```typescript
-import { createHybridService } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-async function embedder(text: string): Promise<Float32Array> {
-  // Use any embedding provider — OpenAI, @claude-flow/embeddings, your own model.
-  // If the embedder ever fails, MemoryService falls back to FTS5 keyword search
-  // automatically (emitting `health.embedder = 'degraded'`).
-  return new Float32Array(/* ... */);
-}
-
-const memory = await createHybridService('./data/memory.db', embedder, 1536);
-await memory.initialize();
-
-// Store an entry — content is embedded and added to both SQLite and HNSW
-await memory.store({
-  key: 'auth-patterns',
-  content: 'OAuth 2.0 implementation patterns for secure authentication',
-  tags: ['auth', 'security', 'patterns'],
-});
-
-// Semantic search via HNSW
-const similar = await memory.semanticSearch('user authentication best practices', 5);
-
-// Keyword search via FTS5 (also used as the automatic fallback)
-const exact = await memory.searchKeyword('OAuth 2.0', { limit: 10 });
-
-// Hybrid search — RRF-fused dense + sparse, MMR-diversified
-const blended = await memory.search('authentication patterns', { limit: 10 });
-
-// Clean shutdown — flushes the consolidator timer and snapshots HNSW to disk
-await memory.close();
-
-// Reopen the same path — entries AND HNSW index are restored from sidecar
-const reopened = await createHybridService('./data/memory.db', embedder, 1536);
-await reopened.initialize();
-// memory.search() is immediately fast — no rebuild
-```
-
-You can also use the lower-level primitives directly. `HNSWIndex` is exported and works without any of the service layer if you just want a vector index:
-
-```typescript
-import { HNSWIndex } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-const index = new HNSWIndex({
-  dimensions: 1536,  // OpenAI embedding size
-  M: 16,             // Max connections per node
-  efConstruction: 200,
-  metric: 'cosine',
-});
-
-await index.addPoint('memory-1', new Float32Array(embedding));
-await index.addPoint('memory-2', new Float32Array(embedding2));
-
-const results = await index.search(queryVector, 10);
-// [{ id: 'memory-1', distance: 0.05 }, { id: 'memory-2', distance: 0.12 }]
-
-// New in 3.0.0-alpha.18: persist the index to a buffer for restore later
-const snapshot: Buffer = index.serialize();
-const restored = HNSWIndex.deserialize(snapshot);
-```
-
-## Migrating from `3.0.0-alpha.17` or earlier
-
-If you're already using this package:
-
-```typescript
-// Before
-import { UnifiedMemoryService } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-const memory = new UnifiedMemoryService({ /* ... */ });
-
-// After (recommended) — both names resolve to the same class
-import { MemoryService } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-const memory = new MemoryService({ /* ... */ });
-
-// `UnifiedMemoryService` continues to work through 3.0.0-rc as a `@deprecated` alias.
-```
-
-Two other things changed in `3.0.0-alpha.18`:
-
-1. **`createHybridService` now does what its name says.** If you were relying on the old AgentDB-only downgrade, you'll get a real `HybridBackend` now — semantic search and structured queries both work without extra wiring.
-2. **`semanticSearch` no longer throws when the embedder is absent.** Code that relied on a thrown error to detect a misconfigured embedder should listen for `health.embedder = 'degraded'` events instead. See [Graceful retrieval](#graceful-retrieval-fts5-fallback) below.
-
-The `HnswLite` and `RvfBackend` classes are no longer top-level exports (they were internal implementation details). If your code imported them, switch to `HNSWIndex` (more capable, persistent) — they're verified to have zero external importers.
-
-## Persistence
-
-In `3.0.0-alpha.18` the HNSW index survives `close()` and restart. Snapshots happen automatically:
-
-- On `service.close()`, the index is serialized to `<dbPath>.hnsw` and the in-memory entry/namespace/key/tag maps go to `<dbPath>.meta.json`.
-- During the lifetime of the service, the index also auto-snapshots every Nth `store()` call (default `N=1000`, configurable via `MemoryServiceConfig.snapshotInterval`).
-- On initialize, if both sidecars exist, they're restored. The service emits one of three `health.persistence` events: `'restored'` (success), `'fresh'` (no sidecar found — first run), or `'corrupt'` (deserialize failed — automatic fallback to fresh state).
-
-```typescript
-import { MemoryService, HNSWIndex } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-const memory = new MemoryService({
-  persistenceEnabled: true,
-  persistencePath: './data/memory.db',
-  snapshotInterval: 500,   // snapshot every 500 stores
-  embeddingGenerator,
-});
-
-memory.on('health.persistence', (status) => {
-  // 'restored' | 'fresh' | 'corrupt'
-  console.log('Persistence state:', status);
-});
-
-await memory.initialize();
-// ...store, query...
-await memory.close();   // flushes a final snapshot
-```
-
-Manual snapshot/restore on a raw `HNSWIndex`:
-
-```typescript
-const buf: Buffer = index.serialize();
-// write buf to disk, transfer between processes, etc.
-
-const restored = HNSWIndex.deserialize(buf);
-// search works immediately — no rebuild
-```
-
-The serialized format is versioned with a magic header (`HNSW\x01`) — a corrupted or stale snapshot is detected and rejected loudly rather than silently producing wrong neighbors.
-
-## Memory consolidation
-
-`MemoryConsolidator` keeps the index bounded. Three operations:
-
-```typescript
-import { MemoryConsolidator } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-const consolidator = new MemoryConsolidator(memory, {
-  dedupStrategy: 'merge-tags',   // 'keep-newest' | 'keep-oldest' | 'merge-tags'
-  intervalMs: 6 * 60 * 60 * 1000, // auto-run every 6h
-});
-
-// Evict expired entries from all indexes (including HNSW)
-const swept = await consolidator.sweepExpired();
-// { removed: 142, remaining: 8503 }
-
-// Deduplicate by SHA-256 content hash
-const dedup = await consolidator.dedup('keep-newest');
-// { merged: 23 }
-
-// Rebuild HNSW to reclaim space after large churn
-const compaction = await consolidator.compactHnsw();
-// { before: 8503, after: 8503, durationMs: 198 }
-
-// Or run all three in sequence
-const result = await consolidator.runAll();
-```
-
-You don't have to construct it manually — `MemoryService` will wire it up if you opt in:
-
-```typescript
-const memory = new MemoryService({
-  consolidator: {
-    autoRun: true,                     // start a setInterval that runs runAll()
-    intervalMs: 6 * 60 * 60 * 1000,    // every 6h (default)
-  },
-});
-
-memory.on('consolidation.complete', (result) => {
-  console.log(`Swept ${result.swept.removed}, deduped ${result.dedup.merged}`);
-});
-```
-
-The `nightlyLearner` controller in the AgentDB controller registry now delegates to `MemoryConsolidator.runAll()` instead of the old AgentDB pass-through, so the consolidator is invoked from every layer that expects the "nightly memory hygiene" hook.
-
-## Graceful retrieval (FTS5 fallback)
-
-`MemoryService.search()` and `semanticSearch()` no longer hard-fail when `@claude-flow/embeddings` (or whatever embedder you injected) is unavailable. They:
-
-1. Try the embedder.
-2. If it throws or is missing, emit `health.embedder = 'degraded'`.
-3. Run the same query through FTS5 keyword search (porter + unicode61 tokenizer) and return those results.
-
-```typescript
-const memory = new MemoryService({
-  // No embeddingGenerator — semantic queries will fall back to FTS5
-});
-await memory.initialize();
-
-memory.on('health.embedder', (state) => {
-  // 'available' | 'degraded'
-  console.warn(`Embedder is ${state}`);
-});
-
-await memory.store({ key: 'note-1', content: 'OAuth pattern review' });
-const results = await memory.search('OAuth', { limit: 5 });
-// Returns FTS-ranked matches; no throw
-```
-
-When **both** dense (HNSW) and sparse (FTS5) paths are available, `service.search(query)` runs both, fuses the rankings with Reciprocal Rank Fusion (`k=60`), and reranks with MMR (`λ=0.7`) for diversity. This is what the AgentDB `hybridSearch` controller exposes too — it used to be a stub that returned `null`; in `3.0.0-alpha.18` it's a real implementation.
-
-## API Reference
-
-### HNSW Index
-
-```typescript
-import { HNSWIndex } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-const index = new HNSWIndex({
-  dimensions: 1536,
-  M: 16,                    // Max connections per layer
-  efConstruction: 200,      // Construction-time search depth
-  maxElements: 1000000,     // Max vectors
-  metric: 'cosine',         // 'cosine' | 'euclidean' | 'dot' | 'manhattan'
-  quantization: {           // Optional quantization
-    type: 'scalar',         // 'binary' | 'scalar' | 'product'
-    bits: 8
-  }
-});
-
-// Add vectors
-await index.addPoint(id: string, vector: Float32Array);
-
-// Search
-const results = await index.search(
-  query: Float32Array,
-  k: number,

-);
-
-// Search with filters
-const filtered = await index.searchWithFilters(
-  query,
-  k,
-  (id) => id.startsWith('session-')
-);

-
-const adapter = new AgentDBAdapter({
-  dimension: 1536,
-  indexType: 'hnsw',
-  metric: 'cosine',
-  hnswM: 16,
-  hnswEfConstruction: 200,

-});
-```
-

-
-```typescript
-import { CacheManager } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-const cache = new CacheManager({
-  maxSize: 1000,
-  ttlMs: 3600000,  // 1 hour
-  strategy: 'lru'
-});
-

-  .where('agentId', '=', 'agent-1')
-  .where('type', 'in', ['pattern', 'strategy'])
-  .where('createdAt', '>', Date.now() - 86400000)
-  .orderBy('relevance', 'desc')
-  .limit(20)
-  .execute();
-```
-
-### Migration
-
-```typescript

-
-const migrator = createMigrator({
-  source: './data/v2-memory.db',
-  destination: './data/v3-memory.db',

-  onProgress: (progress) => console.log(`${progress.percent}%`),
-});
-```
-
-## Quantization Options
-
-```typescript
-// Binary quantization (32x compression)
-const binaryIndex = new HNSWIndex({
-  dimensions: 1536,
-  quantization: { type: 'binary' }
-});
-
-// Scalar quantization (4x compression)

-
-## Auto Memory Bridge (ADR-048)
-
-Bidirectional sync between Claude Code's [auto memory](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/memory) files and AgentDB. Auto memory is a persistent directory (`~/.claude/projects/<project>/memory/`) where Claude writes learnings as markdown. `MEMORY.md` (first 200 lines) is loaded into the system prompt; topic files are read on demand.
-
-### Quick Start
-
-```typescript
-import { AutoMemoryBridge } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-const bridge = new AutoMemoryBridge(memoryBackend, {
-  workingDir: '/workspaces/my-project',
-  syncMode: 'on-session-end', // 'on-write' | 'on-session-end' | 'periodic'
-  pruneStrategy: 'confidence-weighted', // 'confidence-weighted' | 'fifo' | 'lru'
-});
-
-// Record an insight (stores in AgentDB + optionally writes to files)
-await bridge.recordInsight({
-  category: 'debugging',
-  summary: 'HNSW index requires initialization before search',
-  source: 'agent:tester',
-  confidence: 0.95,
-});
-
-// Sync buffered insights to auto memory files
-const syncResult = await bridge.syncToAutoMemory();
-
-// Import existing auto memory files into AgentDB (on session start)
-const importResult = await bridge.importFromAutoMemory();
-
-// Curate MEMORY.md index (stays under 200-line limit)
-await bridge.curateIndex();
-
-// Check status
-const status = bridge.getStatus();
-```
-
-### Sync Modes
-
-| Mode | Behavior |
-|------|----------|
-| `on-write` | Writes to files immediately on `recordInsight()` |
-| `on-session-end` | Buffers insights, flushes on `syncToAutoMemory()` |
-| `periodic` | Auto-syncs on a configurable interval |
-
-### Insight Categories
-
-| Category | Topic File | Description |
-|----------|-----------|-------------|
-| `project-patterns` | `patterns.md` | Code patterns and conventions |
-| `debugging` | `debugging.md` | Bug fixes and debugging insights |
-| `architecture` | `architecture.md` | Design decisions and module relationships |
-| `performance` | `performance.md` | Benchmarks and optimization results |
-| `security` | `security.md` | Security findings and CVE notes |
-| `preferences` | `preferences.md` | User and project preferences |
-| `swarm-results` | `swarm-results.md` | Multi-agent swarm outcomes |
-
-### Key Optimizations
-
-- **Batch import** - `bulkInsert()` instead of individual `store()` calls
-- **Pre-fetched hashes** - Single query for content-hash dedup during import
-- **Async I/O** - `node:fs/promises` for non-blocking writes
-- **Exact dedup** - `hasSummaryLine()` uses bullet-prefix matching, not substring
-- **O(1) sync tracking** - `syncedInsightKeys` Set prevents double-write race
-- **Prune-before-build** - Avoids O(n^2) index rebuild loop
-
-### Utility Functions
-
-```typescript
-import {
-  resolveAutoMemoryDir,  // Derive auto memory path from working dir
-  findGitRoot,           // Walk up to find .git root
-  parseMarkdownEntries,  // Parse ## headings into structured entries
-  extractSummaries,      // Extract bullet summaries, strip metadata
-  formatInsightLine,     // Format insight as markdown bullet
-  hashContent,           // SHA-256 truncated to 16 hex chars
-  pruneTopicFile,        // Keep topic files under line limit

-
-## Self-Learning Bridge (ADR-049)
-
-Connects insights to the `@claude-flow/neural` learning pipeline. When neural is unavailable, all operations degrade to no-ops.
-
-### Quick Start
-
-```typescript
-import { AutoMemoryBridge, LearningBridge } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-const bridge = new AutoMemoryBridge(backend, {
-  workingDir: '/workspaces/my-project',
-  learning: {
-    sonaMode: 'balanced',
-    confidenceDecayRate: 0.005,   // Per-hour decay
-    accessBoostAmount: 0.03,      // Boost per access
-    consolidationThreshold: 10,   // Min insights before consolidation
-  },
-});
-
-// Insights now trigger learning trajectories automatically
-await bridge.recordInsight({
-  category: 'debugging',
-  summary: 'Connection pool exhaustion on high load',
-  source: 'agent:tester',
-  confidence: 0.9,
-});
-
-// Consolidation runs JUDGE/DISTILL/CONSOLIDATE pipeline
-await bridge.syncToAutoMemory(); // Calls consolidate() first
-```
-
-### Standalone Usage
-
-```typescript
-import { LearningBridge } from '@claude-flow/memory';

-  // Optional: inject neural loader for custom setups
-  neuralLoader: async () => {
-    const { NeuralLearningSystem } = await import('@claude-flow/neural');
-    return new NeuralLearningSystem();

-### Confidence Lifecycle
-
-| Event | Effect | Range |
-|-------|--------|-------|
-| Insight recorded | Initial confidence from source | 0.1 - 1.0 |
-| Insight accessed | +0.03 per access | Capped at 1.0 |
-| Time decay | -0.005 per hour since last access | Floored at 0.1 |
-| Consolidation | Neural pipeline may adjust | 0.1 - 1.0 |
-
-## Knowledge Graph (ADR-049)
-
-Pure TypeScript knowledge graph with PageRank and community detection. No external graph libraries required.
-
-### Quick Start
-
-```typescript
-import { AutoMemoryBridge, MemoryGraph } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-const bridge = new AutoMemoryBridge(backend, {
-  workingDir: '/workspaces/my-project',
-  graph: {
-    similarityThreshold: 0.8,
-    pageRankDamping: 0.85,
-    maxNodes: 5000,
-  },
-});
-
-// Graph builds automatically on import
-await bridge.importFromAutoMemory();
-
-// Curation uses PageRank to prioritize influential insights
-await bridge.curateIndex();
-```
-
-### Standalone Usage
-
-```typescript
-import { MemoryGraph } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-const graph = new MemoryGraph({
-  pageRankDamping: 0.85,
-  pageRankIterations: 50,
-  pageRankConvergence: 1e-6,
-  maxNodes: 5000,
-});
-
-// Build from backend entries
-await graph.buildFromBackend(backend, 'my-namespace');
-
-// Or build manually
-graph.addNode(entry);
-graph.addEdge('entry-1', 'entry-2', 'reference', 1.0);
-graph.addEdge('entry-1', 'entry-3', 'similar', 0.9);
-
-// Compute PageRank (power iteration)
-const ranks = graph.computePageRank();
-
-// Detect communities (label propagation)
-const communities = graph.detectCommunities();
-
-// Graph-aware ranking: blend vector score + PageRank
-const ranked = graph.rankWithGraph(searchResults, 0.7);
-// alpha=0.7 means 70% vector score + 30% PageRank
-
-// Get most influential insights for MEMORY.md
-const topNodes = graph.getTopNodes(20);
-
-// BFS traversal for related insights
-const neighbors = graph.getNeighbors('entry-1', 2); // depth=2
-```

-## Agent-Scoped Memory (ADR-049)
-
-Maps Claude Code's 3-scope agent memory directories for per-agent knowledge isolation and cross-agent transfer.
-
-### Quick Start
-
-```typescript
-import { createAgentBridge, transferKnowledge } from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-// Create a bridge for a specific agent scope
-const agentBridge = createAgentBridge(backend, {
-  agentName: 'my-coder',
-  scope: 'project', // 'project' | 'local' | 'user'
-  workingDir: '/workspaces/my-project',
-});
-
-// Record insights scoped to this agent
-await agentBridge.recordInsight({
-  category: 'debugging',
-  summary: 'Use connection pooling for DB calls',
-  source: 'agent:my-coder',
-  confidence: 0.95,
-});
-
-// Transfer high-confidence insights between agents
-const result = await transferKnowledge(sourceBackend, targetBridge, {
-  sourceNamespace: 'learnings',
-  minConfidence: 0.8,   // Only transfer confident insights
-  maxEntries: 20,
-  categories: ['debugging', 'architecture'],
-});
-// { transferred: 15, skipped: 5 }
-```
-
-### Scope Paths
-
-| Scope | Directory | Use Case |
-|-------|-----------|----------|
-| `project` | `<gitRoot>/.claude/agent-memory/<agent>/` | Project-specific learnings |
-| `local` | `<gitRoot>/.claude/agent-memory-local/<agent>/` | Machine-local data |
-| `user` | `~/.claude/agent-memory/<agent>/` | Cross-project user knowledge |
-
-### Utilities
-
-```typescript
-import {
-  resolveAgentMemoryDir,  // Get scope directory path
-  createAgentBridge,       // Create scoped AutoMemoryBridge
-  transferKnowledge,       // Cross-agent knowledge sharing
-  listAgentScopes,         // Discover existing agent scopes
-} from '@claude-flow/memory';
-
-// Resolve path for an agent scope
-const dir = resolveAgentMemoryDir('my-agent', 'project');
-// → /workspaces/my-project/.claude/agent-memory/my-agent/
-
-// List all agent scopes in a directory
-const scopes = await listAgentScopes('/workspaces/my-project');
-// [{ agentName: 'coder', scope: 'project', path: '...' }, ...]
-```
-
-## Performance Benchmarks
-
-Reproducible benchmarks ship in `benchmarks/*.bench.ts`. Run them yourself:
-
-```bash
-cd v3/@claude-flow/memory
-npm run build
-npm run bench         # runs benchmarks/*.bench.ts under vitest
-```
-
-### HNSW search baseline ([`baseline-20260519T212453Z.md`](./benchmarks/results/baseline-20260519T212453Z.md))
-
-Measured on Apple Silicon (M-series), Node 22.22.1, vitest 4.0.16. Scenario: 1,000 random 128-dim cosine-normalized vectors loaded into a single `HNSWIndex`, then 200 query iterations after warmup.
-
-| Metric | Value | Notes |
-|---|---|---|
-| `build_time_ms` | **533.42 ms** | Sequential `addPoint()` × 1,000 |
-| `search_k10_avg_ms` | **0.5294 ms** | Post-warmup, average of 200 iterations |
-| `search_k50_avg_ms` | **0.5235 ms** | k=50 ≈ k=10 — heap-based selection dominates |
-| `add_avg_ms` | **0.8656 ms** | Incremental insert after the initial 1k |
-| `search_k10_ops_per_sec` | **1,888.9 ops/s** | Derived |
-| `search_k50_ops_per_sec` | **1,910.1 ops/s** | Derived |
-
-These numbers are device-specific; CI baselines will replace this file once the GitHub Actions bench job lands. ADR-125 Phase 3 (persistent HNSW) means **cold-start** restoration should be a small fraction of `build_time_ms` once the snapshot benchmark is added.

-## Dependencies
-
-- `agentdb` `^3.0.0-alpha.14` — Vector database engine
-- `sql.js` — SQLite driver via WASM (always available; no native build required)
-- `better-sqlite3` — **Optional** native SQLite driver for higher throughput. The package works without it (sql.js fallback), so installs succeed on Node 24/26 even when the native build can't compile ([#1867](https://github.com/ruvnet/ruflo/issues/1867))
-- `@claude-flow/embeddings` — **Optional** for semantic search. When absent or failing, `search()` automatically falls back to FTS5 keyword (see [Graceful retrieval](#graceful-retrieval-fts5-fallback))
-- `@claude-flow/neural` — **Optional** peer dependency for self-learning (graceful fallback when unavailable)

+
+> High-performance memory for Claude Flow V3 — one canonical `MemoryService` API on top of a real hybrid backend (sql.js + AgentDB), persistent HNSW vector search that survives restart, a memory-bound consolidator, graceful keyword (FTS5) fallback when the embedder isn't available, plus the AutoMemoryBridge, self-learning, and knowledge-graph layers that build on top.
+
+## What's new in `3.0.0-alpha.18` (ADR-125)
+
+This release closes out [ADR-125 — Memory Consolidation](../../../v3/docs/adr/ADR-125-memory-consolidation.md). If you're upgrading from `3.0.0-alpha.17` or earlier, this is the headline:
+
+- **One canonical entry point.** `MemoryService` replaces the old `UnifiedMemoryService` name (both still exported — the old one is `@deprecated` and will be removed at `3.0.0-rc`). See [Migration](#migrating-from-30-0-alpha-17-or-earlier) below.
+- **A real hybrid default.** `createHybridService(...)` finally returns a service whose backend is an actual `HybridBackend` (sql.js + AgentDB). Earlier releases silently downgraded this to AgentDB-only — ADR-009's promise wasn't delivered until now.
+- **Persistent HNSW.** Closing a service snapshots its HNSW index to a sidecar (`<dbPath>.hnsw` + `<dbPath>.meta.json`). Reopening on the same path restores in milliseconds rather than rebuilding from scratch — search-ready cold start.
+- **`MemoryConsolidator`.** A background service that evicts expired entries from indexes *and* HNSW, deduplicates by content hash, and rebuilds the HNSW index when it gets fragmented. Auto-runs on a configurable timer (default 6 hours) so memory stays bounded.
+- **Graceful retrieval.** `service.search('query')` no longer throws when `@claude-flow/embeddings` is unavailable — it degrades to FTS5 keyword search and emits `health.embedder = 'degraded'`. The full hybrid path also adds real Reciprocal Rank Fusion + MMR diversity rerank.
+- **Reproducible benchmarks.** `npm run bench` now actually runs. The HNSW search baseline (single-threaded, 1k × 128-dim cosine vectors on Apple Silicon, Node 22): **0.53 ms / search · 1,889 ops/s · 533 ms to build 1k**. See [`benchmarks/results/baseline-20260519T212453Z.md`](./benchmarks/results/baseline-20260519T212453Z.md).
+- **Node 26 install support** ([#1867](https://github.com/ruvnet/ruflo/issues/1867)) — `better-sqlite3` is fully optional; installs succeed on Node 24/26 and the package falls back to sql.js when the native build isn't available.
+
+## Features
+
+- **Canonical `MemoryService` API** — one entry point for store / retrieve / search / hybrid query
+- **Real hybrid backend** — `HybridBackend` (sql.js + AgentDB) for structured + vector queries (ADR-009 / ADR-125 Phase 2)
+- **Persistent HNSW** — index survives `close()` and restart; auto-snapshots every Nth write (ADR-125 Phase 3)
+- **`MemoryConsolidator`** — `sweepExpired()` + `dedup()` + `compactHnsw()` + auto-run timer (ADR-125 Phase 4)
+- **Graceful retrieval** — automatic FTS5 keyword fallback when embedder is unreachable; RRF + MMR for hybrid (ADR-125 Phase 5)
+- **HNSW vector search** — measured **0.53 ms / search at 1k × 128 dim** on Apple Silicon; see baseline above
+- **Auto Memory Bridge** — Bidirectional sync between Claude Code auto memory and AgentDB (ADR-048)
+- **Self-Learning** — LearningBridge connects insights to SONA/ReasoningBank neural pipeline (ADR-049)
+- **Knowledge Graph** — PageRank + label propagation community detection over memory entries (ADR-049)
+- **Agent-Scoped Memory** — 3-scope agent memory (project/local/user) with cross-agent knowledge transfer (ADR-049)
+- **Vector Quantization** — Binary, scalar, and product quantization for 4–32x memory reduction
+- **Multiple Distance Metrics** — Cosine, Euclidean, dot product, and Manhattan
+- **Query Builder** — Fluent API for building complex memory queries
+- **Cache Manager** — LRU caching with configurable size and TTL
+- **Migration Tools** — `MemoryMigrator` for moving from V2 memory systems
+- **Cross-platform** — Works on Linux, macOS, and Windows; Node 18+ (including Node 24/26)
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+npm install @claude-flow/memory
+```
+
+## Standalone use (without the Ruflo CLI)
+
+This package works on its own — you don't need `@claude-flow/cli` or the
+full Ruflo install. Use it any time you want HNSW vector search, an
+AgentDB façade, or the v3 controller registry from your own app.
+
+Two recipes that exercise the most-installed surface:
+
+### Recipe 1 — HNSW index with built-in quantization (no other deps)
+
+```typescript
+// recipe.mjs
+import { HNSWIndex } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const index = new HNSWIndex({
+  dimensions: 8,
+  M: 16,
+  efConstruction: 200,
+  metric: 'cosine',
+});
+
+// Add a few vectors
+await index.addPoint('doc-a', new Float32Array([1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]));
+await index.addPoint('doc-b', new Float32Array([0.9, 0.1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]));
+await index.addPoint('doc-c', new Float32Array([0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]));
+
+// Search — top 2 nearest to "doc-a"-shaped query
+const hits = await index.search(new Float32Array([1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0]), 2);
+console.log(hits); // [{ id: 'doc-a', distance: 0 }, { id: 'doc-b', distance: ~0.005 }]
+```
+
+### Recipe 2 — Drive the controller registry against your own AgentDB
+
+The registry coordinates 15+ memory controllers (learning bridge, memory
+graph, tiered cache, vector backend, etc.) on top of an AgentDB instance
+you own. Useful when you already have an AgentDB lifecycle and just
+want the v3 governance layer (issue #2019 added the `agentdb` injection
+field that makes this clean).
+
+```typescript
+import { ControllerRegistry } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+import { AgentDB } from 'agentdb';
+
+const agentdb = new AgentDB({ dbPath: ':memory:' });
+await agentdb.initialize();
+
+const registry = new ControllerRegistry();
+await registry.initialize({ agentdb });
+
+// Now everything backed by AgentDB is reachable through the registry
+const reflexion = registry.get('reflexion');     // ReflexionMemory
+const vectorBackend = registry.get('vectorBackend'); // live vector backend
+const enabled = registry.isEnabled('skills');    // true
+
+const health = await registry.healthCheck();
+console.log(`${health.activeControllers}/${health.controllers.length} controllers active`);
+
+await registry.shutdown();
+```
+
+## Quick Start
+
+The fastest way to get a full-featured memory service — hybrid backend, HNSW vector index, FTS5 keyword fallback, persistent snapshots, consolidation timer — is `createHybridService`:
+
+```typescript
+import { createHybridService } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+async function embedder(text: string): Promise<Float32Array> {
+  // Use any embedding provider — OpenAI, @claude-flow/embeddings, your own model.
+  // If the embedder ever fails, MemoryService falls back to FTS5 keyword search
+  // automatically (emitting `health.embedder = 'degraded'`).
+  return new Float32Array(/* ... */);
+}
+
+const memory = await createHybridService('./data/memory.db', embedder, 1536);
+await memory.initialize();
+
+// Store an entry — content is embedded and added to both SQLite and HNSW
+await memory.store({
+  key: 'auth-patterns',
+  content: 'OAuth 2.0 implementation patterns for secure authentication',
+  tags: ['auth', 'security', 'patterns'],
+});
+
+// Semantic search via HNSW
+const similar = await memory.semanticSearch('user authentication best practices', 5);
+
+// Keyword search via FTS5 (also used as the automatic fallback)
+const exact = await memory.searchKeyword('OAuth 2.0', { limit: 10 });
+
+// Hybrid search — RRF-fused dense + sparse, MMR-diversified
+const blended = await memory.search('authentication patterns', { limit: 10 });
+
+// Clean shutdown — flushes the consolidator timer and snapshots HNSW to disk
+await memory.close();
+
+// Reopen the same path — entries AND HNSW index are restored from sidecar
+const reopened = await createHybridService('./data/memory.db', embedder, 1536);
+await reopened.initialize();
+// memory.search() is immediately fast — no rebuild
+```
+
+You can also use the lower-level primitives directly. `HNSWIndex` is exported and works without any of the service layer if you just want a vector index:
+
+```typescript
+import { HNSWIndex } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const index = new HNSWIndex({
+  dimensions: 1536,  // OpenAI embedding size
+  M: 16,             // Max connections per node
+  efConstruction: 200,
+  metric: 'cosine',
+});
+
+await index.addPoint('memory-1', new Float32Array(embedding));
+await index.addPoint('memory-2', new Float32Array(embedding2));
+
+const results = await index.search(queryVector, 10);
+// [{ id: 'memory-1', distance: 0.05 }, { id: 'memory-2', distance: 0.12 }]
+
+// New in 3.0.0-alpha.18: persist the index to a buffer for restore later
+const snapshot: Buffer = index.serialize();
+const restored = HNSWIndex.deserialize(snapshot);
+```
+
+## Migrating from `3.0.0-alpha.17` or earlier
+
+If you're already using this package:
+
+```typescript
+// Before
+import { UnifiedMemoryService } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+const memory = new UnifiedMemoryService({ /* ... */ });
+
+// After (recommended) — both names resolve to the same class
+import { MemoryService } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+const memory = new MemoryService({ /* ... */ });
+
+// `UnifiedMemoryService` continues to work through 3.0.0-rc as a `@deprecated` alias.
+```
+
+Two other things changed in `3.0.0-alpha.18`:
+
+1. **`createHybridService` now does what its name says.** If you were relying on the old AgentDB-only downgrade, you'll get a real `HybridBackend` now — semantic search and structured queries both work without extra wiring.
+2. **`semanticSearch` no longer throws when the embedder is absent.** Code that relied on a thrown error to detect a misconfigured embedder should listen for `health.embedder = 'degraded'` events instead. See [Graceful retrieval](#graceful-retrieval-fts5-fallback) below.
+
+The `HnswLite` and `RvfBackend` classes are no longer top-level exports (they were internal implementation details). If your code imported them, switch to `HNSWIndex` (more capable, persistent) — they're verified to have zero external importers.
+
+## Persistence
+
+In `3.0.0-alpha.18` the HNSW index survives `close()` and restart. Snapshots happen automatically:
+
+- On `service.close()`, the index is serialized to `<dbPath>.hnsw` and the in-memory entry/namespace/key/tag maps go to `<dbPath>.meta.json`.
+- During the lifetime of the service, the index also auto-snapshots every Nth `store()` call (default `N=1000`, configurable via `MemoryServiceConfig.snapshotInterval`).
+- On initialize, if both sidecars exist, they're restored. The service emits one of three `health.persistence` events: `'restored'` (success), `'fresh'` (no sidecar found — first run), or `'corrupt'` (deserialize failed — automatic fallback to fresh state).
+
+```typescript
+import { MemoryService, HNSWIndex } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const memory = new MemoryService({
+  persistenceEnabled: true,
+  persistencePath: './data/memory.db',
+  snapshotInterval: 500,   // snapshot every 500 stores
+  embeddingGenerator,
+});
+
+memory.on('health.persistence', (status) => {
+  // 'restored' | 'fresh' | 'corrupt'
+  console.log('Persistence state:', status);
+});
+
+await memory.initialize();
+// ...store, query...
+await memory.close();   // flushes a final snapshot
+```
+
+Manual snapshot/restore on a raw `HNSWIndex`:
+
+```typescript
+const buf: Buffer = index.serialize();
+// write buf to disk, transfer between processes, etc.
+
+const restored = HNSWIndex.deserialize(buf);
+// search works immediately — no rebuild
+```
+
+The serialized format is versioned with a magic header (`HNSW\x01`) — a corrupted or stale snapshot is detected and rejected loudly rather than silently producing wrong neighbors.
+
+## Memory consolidation
+
+`MemoryConsolidator` keeps the index bounded. Three operations:
+
+```typescript
+import { MemoryConsolidator } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const consolidator = new MemoryConsolidator(memory, {
+  dedupStrategy: 'merge-tags',   // 'keep-newest' | 'keep-oldest' | 'merge-tags'
+  intervalMs: 6 * 60 * 60 * 1000, // auto-run every 6h
+});
+
+// Evict expired entries from all indexes (including HNSW)
+const swept = await consolidator.sweepExpired();
+// { removed: 142, remaining: 8503 }
+
+// Deduplicate by SHA-256 content hash
+const dedup = await consolidator.dedup('keep-newest');
+// { merged: 23 }
+
+// Rebuild HNSW to reclaim space after large churn
+const compaction = await consolidator.compactHnsw();
+// { before: 8503, after: 8503, durationMs: 198 }
+
+// Or run all three in sequence
+const result = await consolidator.runAll();
+```
+
+You don't have to construct it manually — `MemoryService` will wire it up if you opt in:
+
+```typescript
+const memory = new MemoryService({
+  consolidator: {
+    autoRun: true,                     // start a setInterval that runs runAll()
+    intervalMs: 6 * 60 * 60 * 1000,    // every 6h (default)
+  },
+});
+
+memory.on('consolidation.complete', (result) => {
+  console.log(`Swept ${result.swept.removed}, deduped ${result.dedup.merged}`);
+});
+```
+
+The `nightlyLearner` controller in the AgentDB controller registry now delegates to `MemoryConsolidator.runAll()` instead of the old AgentDB pass-through, so the consolidator is invoked from every layer that expects the "nightly memory hygiene" hook.
+
+## Graceful retrieval (FTS5 fallback)
+
+`MemoryService.search()` and `semanticSearch()` no longer hard-fail when `@claude-flow/embeddings` (or whatever embedder you injected) is unavailable. They:
+
+1. Try the embedder.
+2. If it throws or is missing, emit `health.embedder = 'degraded'`.
+3. Run the same query through FTS5 keyword search (porter + unicode61 tokenizer) and return those results.
+
+```typescript
+const memory = new MemoryService({
+  // No embeddingGenerator — semantic queries will fall back to FTS5
+});
+await memory.initialize();
+
+memory.on('health.embedder', (state) => {
+  // 'available' | 'degraded'
+  console.warn(`Embedder is ${state}`);
+});
+
+await memory.store({ key: 'note-1', content: 'OAuth pattern review' });
+const results = await memory.search('OAuth', { limit: 5 });
+// Returns FTS-ranked matches; no throw
+```
+
+When **both** dense (HNSW) and sparse (FTS5) paths are available, `service.search(query)` runs both, fuses the rankings with Reciprocal Rank Fusion (`k=60`), and reranks with MMR (`λ=0.7`) for diversity. This is what the AgentDB `hybridSearch` controller exposes too — it used to be a stub that returned `null`; in `3.0.0-alpha.18` it's a real implementation.
+
+## API Reference
+
+### HNSW Index
+
+```typescript
+import { HNSWIndex } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const index = new HNSWIndex({
+  dimensions: 1536,
+  M: 16,                    // Max connections per layer
+  efConstruction: 200,      // Construction-time search depth
+  maxElements: 1000000,     // Max vectors
+  metric: 'cosine',         // 'cosine' | 'euclidean' | 'dot' | 'manhattan'
+  quantization: {           // Optional quantization
+    type: 'scalar',         // 'binary' | 'scalar' | 'product'
+    bits: 8
+  }
+});
+
+// Add vectors
+await index.addPoint(id: string, vector: Float32Array);
+
+// Search
+const results = await index.search(
+  query: Float32Array,
+  k: number,
+  ef?: number  // Search-time depth (higher = more accurate)
+);
+
+// Search with filters
+const filtered = await index.searchWithFilters(
+  query,
+  k,
+  (id) => id.startsWith('session-')
+);
+
+// Remove vectors
+await index.removePoint(id);
+
+// Get statistics
+const stats = index.getStats();
+// { vectorCount, memoryUsage, avgSearchTime, compressionRatio }
+```
+
+### AgentDB Adapter
+
+```typescript
+import { AgentDBAdapter } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const adapter = new AgentDBAdapter({
+  dimension: 1536,
+  indexType: 'hnsw',
+  metric: 'cosine',

+  maxSize: 1000,
+  ttlMs: 3600000,  // 1 hour
+  strategy: 'lru'
+});
+

+  .limit(20)
+  .execute();
+```
+
+### Migration

+  onProgress: (progress) => console.log(`${progress.percent}%`),
+});
+```
+
+## Quantization Options

+});
+```
+
+## Auto Memory Bridge (ADR-048)
+
+Bidirectional sync between Claude Code's [auto memory](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/memory) files and AgentDB. Auto memory is a persistent directory (`~/.claude/projects/<project>/memory/`) where Claude writes learnings as markdown. `MEMORY.md` (first 200 lines) is loaded into the system prompt; topic files are read on demand.
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```typescript
+import { AutoMemoryBridge } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const bridge = new AutoMemoryBridge(memoryBackend, {
+  workingDir: '/workspaces/my-project',
+  syncMode: 'on-session-end', // 'on-write' | 'on-session-end' | 'periodic'
+  pruneStrategy: 'confidence-weighted', // 'confidence-weighted' | 'fifo' | 'lru'
+});
+
+// Record an insight (stores in AgentDB + optionally writes to files)
+await bridge.recordInsight({
+  category: 'debugging',
+  summary: 'HNSW index requires initialization before search',
+  source: 'agent:tester',
+  confidence: 0.95,
+});
+
+// Sync buffered insights to auto memory files
+const syncResult = await bridge.syncToAutoMemory();
+
+// Import existing auto memory files into AgentDB (on session start)
+const importResult = await bridge.importFromAutoMemory();
+
+// Curate MEMORY.md index (stays under 200-line limit)
+await bridge.curateIndex();
+
+// Check status
+const status = bridge.getStatus();
+```
+
+### Sync Modes
+
+| Mode | Behavior |
+|------|----------|
+| `on-write` | Writes to files immediately on `recordInsight()` |
+| `on-session-end` | Buffers insights, flushes on `syncToAutoMemory()` |
+| `periodic` | Auto-syncs on a configurable interval |
+
+### Insight Categories
+
+| Category | Topic File | Description |
+|----------|-----------|-------------|
+| `project-patterns` | `patterns.md` | Code patterns and conventions |
+| `debugging` | `debugging.md` | Bug fixes and debugging insights |
+| `architecture` | `architecture.md` | Design decisions and module relationships |
+| `performance` | `performance.md` | Benchmarks and optimization results |
+| `security` | `security.md` | Security findings and CVE notes |
+| `preferences` | `preferences.md` | User and project preferences |
+| `swarm-results` | `swarm-results.md` | Multi-agent swarm outcomes |
+
+### Key Optimizations
+
+- **Batch import** - `bulkInsert()` instead of individual `store()` calls
+- **Pre-fetched hashes** - Single query for content-hash dedup during import
+- **Async I/O** - `node:fs/promises` for non-blocking writes
+- **Exact dedup** - `hasSummaryLine()` uses bullet-prefix matching, not substring
+- **O(1) sync tracking** - `syncedInsightKeys` Set prevents double-write race
+- **Prune-before-build** - Avoids O(n^2) index rebuild loop
+
+### Utility Functions
+
+```typescript
+import {
+  resolveAutoMemoryDir,  // Derive auto memory path from working dir
+  findGitRoot,           // Walk up to find .git root
+  parseMarkdownEntries,  // Parse ## headings into structured entries
+  extractSummaries,      // Extract bullet summaries, strip metadata
+  formatInsightLine,     // Format insight as markdown bullet
+  hashContent,           // SHA-256 truncated to 16 hex chars
+  pruneTopicFile,        // Keep topic files under line limit
+  hasSummaryLine,        // Exact bullet-prefix dedup check
+} from '@claude-flow/memory';
+```
+
+### Types
+
+```typescript
+import type {
+  AutoMemoryBridgeConfig,
+  MemoryInsight,
+  InsightCategory,
+  SyncDirection,
+  SyncMode,
+  PruneStrategy,
+  SyncResult,
+  ImportResult,
+} from '@claude-flow/memory';
+```
+
+## Self-Learning Bridge (ADR-049)
+
+Connects insights to the `@claude-flow/neural` learning pipeline. When neural is unavailable, all operations degrade to no-ops.
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```typescript
+import { AutoMemoryBridge, LearningBridge } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const bridge = new AutoMemoryBridge(backend, {
+  workingDir: '/workspaces/my-project',
+  learning: {
+    sonaMode: 'balanced',
+    confidenceDecayRate: 0.005,   // Per-hour decay
+    accessBoostAmount: 0.03,      // Boost per access
+    consolidationThreshold: 10,   // Min insights before consolidation
+  },
+});
+
+// Insights now trigger learning trajectories automatically
+await bridge.recordInsight({
+  category: 'debugging',
+  summary: 'Connection pool exhaustion on high load',
+  source: 'agent:tester',
+  confidence: 0.9,
+});
+
+// Consolidation runs JUDGE/DISTILL/CONSOLIDATE pipeline
+await bridge.syncToAutoMemory(); // Calls consolidate() first
+```
+
+### Standalone Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { LearningBridge } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const lb = new LearningBridge(backend, {
+  // Optional: inject neural loader for custom setups
+  neuralLoader: async () => {
+    const { NeuralLearningSystem } = await import('@claude-flow/neural');
+    return new NeuralLearningSystem();
+  },
+});
+
+// Boost confidence when insight is accessed
+await lb.onInsightAccessed('entry-123'); // +0.03 confidence
+
+// Apply time-based decay
+const decayed = await lb.decayConfidences('default'); // -0.005/hour
+
+// Find similar patterns via ReasoningBank
+const patterns = await lb.findSimilarPatterns('connection pooling');
+
+// Get learning statistics
+const stats = lb.getStats();
+// { totalTrajectories, activeTrajectories, completedTrajectories,
+//   totalConsolidations, accessBoosts, ... }
+```
+
+### Confidence Lifecycle
+
+| Event | Effect | Range |
+|-------|--------|-------|
+| Insight recorded | Initial confidence from source | 0.1 - 1.0 |
+| Insight accessed | +0.03 per access | Capped at 1.0 |
+| Time decay | -0.005 per hour since last access | Floored at 0.1 |
+| Consolidation | Neural pipeline may adjust | 0.1 - 1.0 |
+
+## Knowledge Graph (ADR-049)
+
+Pure TypeScript knowledge graph with PageRank and community detection. No external graph libraries required.
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```typescript
+import { AutoMemoryBridge, MemoryGraph } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const bridge = new AutoMemoryBridge(backend, {
+  workingDir: '/workspaces/my-project',
+  graph: {
+    similarityThreshold: 0.8,
+    pageRankDamping: 0.85,
+    maxNodes: 5000,
+  },
+});
+
+// Graph builds automatically on import
+await bridge.importFromAutoMemory();
+
+// Curation uses PageRank to prioritize influential insights
+await bridge.curateIndex();
+```
+
+### Standalone Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { MemoryGraph } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+const graph = new MemoryGraph({
+  pageRankDamping: 0.85,
+  pageRankIterations: 50,
+  pageRankConvergence: 1e-6,
+  maxNodes: 5000,
+});
+
+// Build from backend entries
+await graph.buildFromBackend(backend, 'my-namespace');
+
+// Or build manually
+graph.addNode(entry);
+graph.addEdge('entry-1', 'entry-2', 'reference', 1.0);
+graph.addEdge('entry-1', 'entry-3', 'similar', 0.9);
+
+// Compute PageRank (power iteration)
+const ranks = graph.computePageRank();
+
+// Detect communities (label propagation)
+const communities = graph.detectCommunities();
+
+// Graph-aware ranking: blend vector score + PageRank
+const ranked = graph.rankWithGraph(searchResults, 0.7);
+// alpha=0.7 means 70% vector score + 30% PageRank
+
+// Get most influential insights for MEMORY.md
+const topNodes = graph.getTopNodes(20);
+
+// BFS traversal for related insights
+const neighbors = graph.getNeighbors('entry-1', 2); // depth=2
+```
+
+### Edge Types
+
+| Type | Source | Description |
+|------|--------|-------------|
+| `reference` | `MemoryEntry.references` | Explicit cross-references between entries |
+| `similar` | HNSW search | Auto-created when similarity > threshold |
+| `temporal` | Timestamps | Entries created in same time window |
+| `co-accessed` | Access patterns | Entries frequently accessed together |
+| `causal` | Learning pipeline | Cause-effect relationships |
+
+### Performance
+
+| Operation | Result | Target |
+|-----------|--------|--------|
+| Graph build (1k nodes) | 2.78 ms | <200 ms |
+| PageRank (1k nodes) | 12.21 ms | <100 ms |
+| Community detection (1k) | 19.62 ms | — |
+| `rankWithGraph(10)` | 0.006 ms | — |
+| `getTopNodes(20)` | 0.308 ms | — |
+| `getNeighbors(d=2)` | 0.005 ms | — |
+
+## Agent-Scoped Memory (ADR-049)
+
+Maps Claude Code's 3-scope agent memory directories for per-agent knowledge isolation and cross-agent transfer.
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```typescript
+import { createAgentBridge, transferKnowledge } from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+// Create a bridge for a specific agent scope
+const agentBridge = createAgentBridge(backend, {
+  agentName: 'my-coder',
+  scope: 'project', // 'project' | 'local' | 'user'
+  workingDir: '/workspaces/my-project',
+});
+
+// Record insights scoped to this agent
+await agentBridge.recordInsight({
+  category: 'debugging',
+  summary: 'Use connection pooling for DB calls',
+  source: 'agent:my-coder',
+  confidence: 0.95,
+});
+
+// Transfer high-confidence insights between agents
+const result = await transferKnowledge(sourceBackend, targetBridge, {
+  sourceNamespace: 'learnings',
+  minConfidence: 0.8,   // Only transfer confident insights
+  maxEntries: 20,
+  categories: ['debugging', 'architecture'],
+});
+// { transferred: 15, skipped: 5 }
+```
+
+### Scope Paths
+
+| Scope | Directory | Use Case |
+|-------|-----------|----------|
+| `project` | `<gitRoot>/.claude/agent-memory/<agent>/` | Project-specific learnings |
+| `local` | `<gitRoot>/.claude/agent-memory-local/<agent>/` | Machine-local data |
+| `user` | `~/.claude/agent-memory/<agent>/` | Cross-project user knowledge |
+
+### Utilities
+
+```typescript
+import {
+  resolveAgentMemoryDir,  // Get scope directory path
+  createAgentBridge,       // Create scoped AutoMemoryBridge
+  transferKnowledge,       // Cross-agent knowledge sharing
+  listAgentScopes,         // Discover existing agent scopes
+} from '@claude-flow/memory';
+
+// Resolve path for an agent scope
+const dir = resolveAgentMemoryDir('my-agent', 'project');
+// → /workspaces/my-project/.claude/agent-memory/my-agent/
+
+// List all agent scopes in a directory
+const scopes = await listAgentScopes('/workspaces/my-project');
+// [{ agentName: 'coder', scope: 'project', path: '...' }, ...]
+```
+
+## Performance Benchmarks
+
+Reproducible benchmarks ship in `benchmarks/*.bench.ts`. Run them yourself:
+
+```bash
+cd v3/@claude-flow/memory
+npm run build
+npm run bench         # runs benchmarks/*.bench.ts under vitest
+```
+
+### HNSW search baseline ([`baseline-20260519T212453Z.md`](./benchmarks/results/baseline-20260519T212453Z.md))
+
+Measured on Apple Silicon (M-series), Node 22.22.1, vitest 4.0.16. Scenario: 1,000 random 128-dim cosine-normalized vectors loaded into a single `HNSWIndex`, then 200 query iterations after warmup.
+
+| Metric | Value | Notes |
+|---|---|---|
+| `build_time_ms` | **533.42 ms** | Sequential `addPoint()` × 1,000 |
+| `search_k10_avg_ms` | **0.5294 ms** | Post-warmup, average of 200 iterations |
+| `search_k50_avg_ms` | **0.5235 ms** | k=50 ≈ k=10 — heap-based selection dominates |
+| `add_avg_ms` | **0.8656 ms** | Incremental insert after the initial 1k |
+| `search_k10_ops_per_sec` | **1,888.9 ops/s** | Derived |
+| `search_k50_ops_per_sec` | **1,910.1 ops/s** | Derived |
+
+These numbers are device-specific; CI baselines will replace this file once the GitHub Actions bench job lands. ADR-125 Phase 3 (persistent HNSW) means **cold-start** restoration should be a small fraction of `build_time_ms` once the snapshot benchmark is added.
+
+### ADR-049 Benchmarks
+
+| Operation | Actual | Target | Headroom |
+|-----------|--------|--------|----------|
+| Graph build (1k nodes) | 2.78 ms | <200 ms | **71.9x** |
+| PageRank (1k nodes) | 12.21 ms | <100 ms | **8.2x** |
+| Insight recording | 0.12 ms/each | <5 ms/each | **41.0x** |
+| Consolidation | 0.26 ms | <500 ms | **1,955x** |
+| Confidence decay (1k) | 0.23 ms | <50 ms | **215x** |
+| Knowledge transfer | 1.25 ms | <100 ms | **80.0x** |

+## Dependencies
+
+- `agentdb` `^3.0.0-alpha.14` — Vector database engine
+- `sql.js` — SQLite driver via WASM (always available; no native build required)
+- `better-sqlite3` — **Optional** native SQLite driver for higher throughput. The package works without it (sql.js fallback), so installs succeed on Node 24/26 even when the native build can't compile ([#1867](https://github.com/ruvnet/ruflo/issues/1867))
+- `@claude-flow/embeddings` — **Optional** for semantic search. When absent or failing, `search()` automatically falls back to FTS5 keyword (see [Graceful retrieval](#graceful-retrieval-fts5-fallback))
+- `@claude-flow/neural` — **Optional** peer dependency for self-learning (graceful fallback when unavailable)
