 All plugin TypeSafe features use `plugins.entries.unblock-memory.config.typesafe`:
 
+Candidate scoring uses **one HTTP request per candidate**, with ranking done in code.
+Related questions about the same candidate can share a request (for example, quality
+noise and evidence). Memory Whisperer launches all eligible candidate requests together;
+the shared account's request/token limits still apply across simultaneous conversations
+and nodes. There is no automatic retry in the latency-sensitive whisperers.
+
+Not every judgment is reranking: claim verification retains the cited sources for
+one claim, response auditing grades one episode, and redundancy compares one pair.
+These evidence relationships are deliberately preserved, not split into unrelated scores.

 neither performs retries. Timed-out or superseded runs cannot inject late hints.
 Already-running local QMD work may finish in the background, but does not keep the
 agent waiting beyond the deadline. No new indexing, clustering, or summarization runs
 are triggered by this feature beyond the memory manager's normal initialization.
 
+### Local MLX query generation (opt-in)
+
+Add `mlx` to the Memory Whisperer config to use the fine-tuned LFM query model:
+
+```json
+{
+  "memoryWhisperer": {
+    "enabled": true,
+    "corpora": ["memory", "knowledge", "sessions"],
+    "timeoutMs": 8000,
+    "mlx": {
+      "pythonPath": "/absolute/path/to/venv/bin/python",
+      "modelPath": "/absolute/path/to/lfm25-230m-pure-query-mlx-8bit"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Approve only corpora suitable for every audience of the agent. Model weights and
+their separate license are not bundled in npm. On Apple Silicon, install Python
+3.12 with `mlx==0.32.2`, `mlx-lm==0.31.3`, and `transformers==5.17.0` in an isolated
+environment. Verify the model's SHA256SUMS before configuring its absolute path.
+The worker requires the supplied model's exact `system.txt` prompt.
+
+One private Python child per Gateway keeps the model warm, using stdin/stdout IPC
+with no listening port. Startup warms the model; failures retry on a later turn
+with a short backoff. Gateway shutdown stops the worker. Queues are bounded and
+cancelled requests are skipped; active generation checks cancellation between
+tokens. No conversation cache or raw worker output is written to Gateway logs.
+
+Two branches start together: TypeSafe's historical-recall judgment and local
+generation requesting three queries. Generation uses visible user/assistant text,
+the exact model prompt/template, greedy decoding and a 256-token output ceiling.
+It keeps the whole current request, drops oldest whole history messages to fit a
+24,000-byte input budget, and excludes oversized/ambiguous inputs. History length
+also follows `historyMessages`. This is not a claim of a 24,000-token context.
+
+Generated queries retrieve ten vector plus ten BM25 matches each per approved
+collection. All unique eligible passages proceed to the existing usefulness
+judge, with one HTTP request per passage, all launched together, without a merged
+passage-count cap or groups of eight. Each request contains the original conversation
+and only its own passage. Successful judgments remain eligible if another
+request times out, fails HTTP/network delivery, or returns invalid answers. Scores
+stay paired with their original passages; failed candidates are excluded, not scored
+as zero. If all requests fail, nothing is injected. Recall approval, the total
+deadline, and session cancellation still apply to every result. No retries are
+added to the latency-sensitive hook.
+The 1,200-character complete-excerpt limit, corpus checks, citations, cooldown and
+two-hint/5,000-character injection budget still apply. The judge sees only the
+original conversation and passages, never generated queries or retrieval scores.
+This can send more passages to TypeSafe than the legacy eight-candidate path.
+
+Recall probability below 0.7 discards/cancels the speculative branch immediately;
+no results are used until recall is approved. A recall error also emits no hint.
+Query output keeps nonempty strings, trims surrounding whitespace and drops exact
+duplicates; it does not require three queries or reject valid JSON based on the
+generation finish reason. Unparseable/unavailable output or no usable queries
+falls back to the legacy query/retrieval path, still subject to the recall gate
+and passage judge.
+Nothing changes in manual `memory_search`. The default total deadline remains
+three seconds; measure the full path before choosing a larger explicit budget.
+Already-running native retrieval may finish after cancellation, but cannot inject.
+
+Diagnostics distinguish `queries_generated`, `query_fallback`,
+`recall_not_needed`, and `judge_candidate_failed`. Gateway logs prefixed
+`unblock-memory memory_whisperer` contain structured JSON with agent/run/session
+IDs, candidate index, elapsed time, request timeout, and safe
+failure codes (`timeout`, `cancelled`, `http_error`, `network_error`,
+`invalid_response`; HTTP failures include the status). Unexpected local errors
+identify the failed stage without dumping the exception. A single completion
+record per run includes its outcome/reason, available stage timings, recall
+probability, query/candidate counts, `requestsSucceeded`/`requestsFailed`, partial-result
+flag, and emitted hint count. Prompt rebuilds reuse the result without duplicate
+logs. Logs never include queries, prompts, excerpts, credentials, provider bodies,
+or raw exceptions; exact query text is not retained by this telemetry.
+
 ## Skill Whisperer
 
+
 Skill Whisperer is an optional semantic reminder for user turns. Configure one
 isolated `skills` corpus, set `skillWhisperer.enabled` to `true`, and authorize
 `plugins.entries.unblock-memory.hooks.allowConversationAccess`. The feature
 embeds the current prompt plus the configured number of prior user/assistant
 messages, compares it with each configured skill's frontmatter `name` and
 `description`. With TypeSafe enabled and a key available, the top three valid
-candidates are sent to TypeSafe, without a vector-score cutoff. TypeSafe chooses
-one skill or none. A "none" decision never falls back to a vector hint. Full skill
+candidates are graded in separate concurrent TypeSafe requests, without a vector-score cutoff.
+Each request sees only one skill's name/description plus the conversation. Code chooses
+the highest usefulness probability at or above **0.7**, with retrieval order breaking ties.
+If none qualifies, no skill is suggested; there is no vector fallback. This is an
+absolute per-skill usefulness judgment, not a multi-skill Choice distribution. Full skill
 procedures do not influence routing; no skill is invoked automatically.
 
+The reminder follows memory, when present, in the same appended `<unblock_memory>`
+block: `<skill>This skill may be relevant: "/path/to/SKILL.md"</skill>`.
+It includes the path but does not repeat the skill name.
+
 See [shared TypeSafe credentials](configuration.md#shared-typesafe-credentials) for key setup,
 rotation and the `enabled: true` / `timeoutMs: 1500` defaults.
 
 If TypeSafe is disabled or no key is found, selection uses the original local
 vector process and `skillWhisperer.minScore`. With a key present, an API error,
-invalid response, or timeout emits no hint and logs a sanitized warning; it does
