-## 2. Retrieval Algorithm Validation
-
-### Test Setup
-
-**Test Script**: `src/reasoningbank/test-retrieval.ts`
-
-**Test Data**: 5 synthetic memories across 3 domains (test.web, test.api, test.db)
-
-### Retrieval Results
-
-**Query 1**: "How to handle CSRF tokens in web forms?" (domain: test.web)
-```
-Retrieved 6 candidates:
-  1. CSRF Token Handling (conf: 0.88, age: 0d)
-  2. Authentication Cookie Validation (conf: 0.82, age: 0d)
-  3. Form Validation Before Submit (conf: 0.75, age: 0d)
-```
-
-**Query 2**: "API rate limiting and retry strategies" (domain: test.api)
-```
-Retrieved 2 candidates:
-  1. API Rate Limiting Backoff (conf: 0.91, age: 0d)
-```
-
-**Query 3**: "Database error recovery" (domain: test.db)
-```
-Retrieved 2 candidates:
-  1. Database Transaction Retry Logic (conf: 0.86, age: 0d)
-```
-
-### Scoring Algorithm Verification
-
-**Formula**: `score = α·sim + β·recency + γ·reliability`
-
-**Parameters** (from config):
-- α = 0.65 (semantic similarity weight)
-- β = 0.15 (recency weight via exponential decay)
-- γ = 0.20 (reliability weight from confidence × usage)
-- δ = 0.10 (diversity penalty for MMR selection)
-
-**Recency Decay**: `exp(-age_days / 45)` with 45-day half-life
-
-**Reliability**: `min(confidence, 1.0)` bounded by confidence score
-
-### Cosine Similarity Test
-
-```
-Cosine similarity (identical vectors): 1.0000
-Cosine similarity (different vectors): 0.0015
-   ✅ Identical vectors have similarity ≈ 1.0
-   ✅ Different vectors have lower similarity
-```
-
-**Implementation**: Normalized dot product with magnitude calculation

-## 5. Integration Points
-
-### Claude Flow Memory Space
-
-**Database Path**: `.swarm/memory.db`
-
-**Integration Strategy**:
-- ✅ Extends existing `patterns` table with `type='reasoning_memory'`
-- ✅ No breaking changes to existing memory system
-- ✅ Shares `performance_metrics` table for unified observability
-- ✅ Compatible with existing session state and namespace features
-
-### Hooks Integration (Not Yet Implemented)
-
-**Pre-Task Hook** (`hooks/pre-task.ts` - to be implemented):
-1. Retrieve top-k relevant memories for task query
-2. Inject memories into system prompt
-3. Log retrieval metrics
-
-**Post-Task Hook** (`hooks/post-task.ts` - to be implemented):
-1. Capture trajectory from agent execution
-2. Judge trajectory (Success/Failure)
-3. Distill new memories from trajectory
-4. Check consolidation trigger threshold
-5. Run consolidation if needed
-
-**Configuration**: Add to `.claude/settings.json`:
-```json
-{
-  "hooks": {
-    "preTaskHook": {
-      "command": "tsx",
-      "args": ["src/reasoningbank/hooks/pre-task.ts", "--task-id", "$TASK_ID", "--query", "$QUERY"],
-      "alwaysRun": true
-    },
-    "postTaskHook": {
-      "command": "tsx",
-      "args": ["src/reasoningbank/hooks/post-task.ts", "--task-id", "$TASK_ID"],
-      "alwaysRun": true
-    }
-  }
-}
-```

-## 9. Security and Compliance
-
-### PII Scrubbing (Configured, Not Implemented)
-
-**Redaction Patterns** (from config):
-- Email addresses: `\b[A-Za-z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Za-z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z|a-z]{2,}\b`
