+
+Every memory now carries an authored title and summary, a home keeps a persistent queue of what still needs
+understanding, a record's understanding is rewritten in place with every earlier reading kept, the home's topics are
+formed during sleep, and a host can fence every memory write behind its Stop (backlogs 0059, 0060, 0061;

+[ADR 0003](docs/adr/0003-one-graph-ledger-provenance-and-revisions.md) decision 6a).
+
+### Upgrading
+
+- **Open homes that form records with `MemorySystem(..., task_queue=True)`.** A missing title or summary is always
+  stored beside the task that writes it, so these refuse a home without a task queue, before writing anything:
+  `world_model_pass`, `dream_pass`, `mine_candidates_pass`, `consolidation_pass`, `wake_cue_dedup_pass`,
+  `sleep_pass`, `communities_pass`, `embed_missing`, the ripple verbs, a `remember_many` record with `pending=...`,
+  and an `engram` whose unnamed spark items get no authored title (`report_only` reads still run). `declare_pending`
+  and `rearm_pending` answer `no_task_queue`. The queue adds its tables (`memq_*`) to the home's file on first open.
+- **Pass an `author` callable.** Memory calls no model: `world_model_pass` / `world_model_update`, `dream_pass`,
+  `mine_candidates_pass`, `consolidation_pass`, `wake_cue_dedup_pass`, `sleep_pass`, `communities_pass` and `engram`
+  take `author(kind, body, context) -> {title, summary, author, reader, sources}`. Without it, or when it fails, the
+  records still form, pending, and every result's `authoring = {authored, failures}` names the failures
+  (`no_author_supplied`, `author_raised`, `invalid_result`).
+- **Treat a title as optional while it is pending.** `MemoryRecordInput.title` may be `None` with
+  `pending=("title",)`, and every read serves a pending title as `None` (`MemoryHandle.title` is `Optional[str]`,
+  display blocks and `record_understanding` carry `pending`), never a placeholder or words from the body. A host's
+  drainer completes `title.author` / `digest.author` tasks with `retitle` / `rewrite_digest`; records stored before
+  0.5.0 without an authored title or summary are brought into the same state with `declare_pending`.
+  `MemoryRecordInput` raises `ValueError` for an empty title without `pending=("title",)`, and for a title given
+  with it.
+- **Memory's passes no longer store their own titles or summaries.** Cards, dreams, offers, consolidation candidates
+  and the dedup day summary form authored or pending; their bookkeeping text ("World model: ...", "Dream: ...") is
+  only the provisional body their tasks author from. `world_model_pass` no longer queues `card.author` for new cards
+  (`digest.author` owns the body; `card.author` remains for legacy cards).
+- **Hosts that fence writes** pass `commit_guard=` and wrap the moment they flip it in `system.write_barrier()`.
+  Two residual windows remain: a LanceDB store takes no write lock (a LanceDB write whose guard passed before the
+  flip may land after it, at most one per concurrent writer; `BarrierHold.uncovered` names it with a `#FALLBACK`
+  warning), and the two SQLite autocommit commit points (`SQLiteTripleStore._write_pin` without a cursor, the
+  off-file graph's `mark_journal_applied`) are covered only by a barrier taken on the same handle.
+- **Community records are never embedded and never recalled**: a store's embedding paths, recall shelves, keyword
+  indexes and memory scans skip kind `community` (`canonical_text.NON_EMBEDDED_KINDS`).
+- `CANONICAL_TEXT_VERSION` is 3 (stored text is never cut). Record digests render as before; a plain assertion
+  with an `original_context` longer than 400 characters keeps its earlier text and vector until `reembed_store`
+  re-derives it.
+- `version_count` is 1 for a record that was never rewritten (was 0); `digest_version` stays 0.
+- `apply_redigestion` is deprecated (it forms a new record with zero usage); use `rewrite_digest`.
+
+### Added: titles and summaries are always authored
+
+- `MemoryRecordInput(pending=(), pending_failure=None)`: `pending` is a subset of `PENDING_FIELDS`
+  (`{"title", "summary"}`). A pending record carries `attributes.pending = {title, summary, since, attempts}` (plus
+  `failure` when authoring failed) and `remember_many` queues its authoring task (`PENDING_TASK_KINDS`:
+  `title.author` / `digest.author`, capability `summaries`, `FORMATION_PRIORITY`). A pending summary is refused on
+  the entity's own words (`UNDERSTANDING_PROTECTED_KINDS`), except a public diary projection's summary.
+- The host's `author` callable on every pass (`formation_authoring`): authored fields are stored with their
+  provenance (`title_provenance`, `understanding`, version 0, cause `formation`) and owe no task; a standing record is
+  never authored again.
+- `engram(..., author=None)`: a spark item without a `name` has its title authored before it forms (it was
+  `<section>-<ordinal>`, such as `trait-0`), else it forms pending; a `name` stays the title. `EngramResult.authoring`.
+- `retitle(record_id, *, title, author, cause, expected_version, ...)`: changes only a record's title, in place, for
+  every kind; the body and the reading stay byte-identical, the previous title is kept as a version, `title_version`
+  is the compare-and-set. Refusals: `empty_title`, `hash_chained` (an owner-direct diary entry whose `entry_hash`
+  attests its title), `closed`, `stale`, `embedder_unavailable`. A digest or card reading that changes the title
+  writes the title version too.
+- `declare_pending(record_id, *, fields=("title", "summary"), cause="repair", reason=None)`: a stored record whose
+  title or summary was never authored gets exactly the state of a record formed pending (marker and tasks in one
+  transaction; a declared title is stored `None`, its old title kept as a version). Idempotent (`already_pending`).
+- `rearm_pending(record_id, ...)` re-queues the authoring task of a pending field whose tasks all ran out, and
+  `pending_records(*, scopes=None, live_task=False)` lists the records still pending, with their live and unowned
+  fields.
+- A public diary entry's summary is authored like any record's (at formation, or declared pending for an existing
+  entry); its body, the book's entry and every hash chain are untouched. Owner-direct, hash-chained and private
+  entries stay protected (`diary.diary_summary_refusal`).
+- `rekey_world_model(old_key, new_key, *, scope, owner_id, author, cause, ...)`: moves a standing card to a new key
+  in place and keeps the old key as an alias, so a retitled interest's next `world_model_pass` forms no second card.
+  An untitled interest's card is keyed `topic:<graph id>` and `retitle` re-keys it when the title lands
+  (`card_rekey` in the result).
+- `REWRITE_CAUSES` gains `repair` (a correction of what a process wrote wrong).
+
+### Added: understanding rewritten in place (0059)
+
+- `rewrite_digest`: replaces a record's digest, title and keywords in place. The record keeps its graph id, digest
+  assertion id, edges, usage counts and journal; its keyword entry and vector are replaced in the same transaction.
+  `expected_version` is a compare-and-set; each reading records `author` (`AUTHOR_KINDS`), `reader`
+  (`{provider, model, thinking}`), `sources` (mandatory for a model author) and `cause`. Refusals are named results
+  that write nothing. Results carry `cosine_distance` between the old and new vectors.
+- `narrate_dream` (a narration beside a dream's summary), `revert_digest`, `versions`, `current_of`,
+  `record_understanding`, `understanding_fields`; `author_world_model` rewrites a card in place by default (accepts
+  `reader`, `sources`, `expected_fingerprint`; `in_place=False` keeps the revision path).
+- The journal's version family `UnderstandingVersion`, and the opt-in replay family `revision`
+  (`OPT_IN_FAMILIES`; the default six families are unchanged). Display blocks carry the reading's provenance
+  (`digest_method`, `digest_version`, `version_count`, `authored_by`, `reader`, `understood_at`, `cause`).
+- Every record says who wrote its words, when and why, even when its writer stamped nothing: a row without a stamp
+  reads as its formation reading, derived from its origin (`understanding.reading_provenance`); `remember_many`
+  records that reading at formation.
+
+### Added: the memory task queue (0060) and ripple v1 (0061)
+
+- `MemorySystem(task_queue=True)` keeps its queue in the home's file (`memq_tasks`, `memq_log`, `memq_windows`,
+  `memq_ripples`, `memq_ripple_gates`, `memq_maintenance`; a private in-memory database for the in-memory store). `system.tasks` (`MemoryTaskQueue`): `enqueue`, `select_for_window(budget_seconds, sensitivity)` (activation
+  through ADR 0001's logistic gate, strongest first, bounded by the window's time; every live task selected or left
+  out with a reason), `claim` / `ack` / `release` (leases, attempts, defer without spending an attempt), `left_out`.
+  `understanding_debt`, `enqueue_debt` (the backfill, dry-run by default) and `task_packet` on `MemorySystem`. The
+  understanding verbs accept `task_id=` and settle the task in their own transaction.
+- A formed record and the tasks it owes commit together (`memory_tasks.form_with_tasks`): one transaction on the
+  SQLite home; on the in-memory pair a failure rolls back exactly that attempt's rows, bindings and tasks.
+- `maintenance_due(..., tasks=)` reports pending tasks and is due when ripple or night-only work is pending.
+- Ripple v1: `seed_ripple`, `settle_reconsideration`, `form_consolidation` (night only), `refresh_ripples`,
+  `revert_ripple`, and the reads `ripples` / `ripple`. Candidates by relation, by the cards built on a memory and by
+  vector similarity; impact decays per hop through the logistic gate (floor 0.1), at most 2 hops and 20
+  reconsiderations per ripple and per window; protected kinds are never reconsidered; every gate decision is stored
+  with its potential.
+
+### Added: communities (topics)
+
+- A community is a formed record of kind `community` (`abstractmemory.communities.COMMUNITY_KIND`), one record per
+  version, with a stable `attributes.community_key` across versions. `communities_pass(system, *, scopes, owner_id,
+  author, cancelled, ...)`, which a host runs during its sleep, detects them (deterministic warm-started Louvain over
+  the vectored records, at most 5 rounds), attaches vector-less records through their engraved relations, lays them
+  out, authors the changed ones and writes the version in one guarded transaction. `embed_missing(...)` embeds the
+  formed records that have no vector with the store's own embedder.
+- Placement at formation: on a `task_queue=True` home, `remember_many` places every record it forms in its
+  provisional community inside the formation's transaction (nearest centroid, else the majority community of its
+  formation edges) and writes one `placed` journal event (an audit kind, never scored).
+- Reads (`abstractmemory.community_index`): `communities(system, *, scopes, owner_id, version=None)` (the payload
+  version 2 a host serves, with each community's `facts`: span, activity, hub, bridges, paths,
+  `changed_since_last_sleep`) and `community_of(system, record_id)`. A community record replays like any formed
+  record; its binding envelope draws only `refines`.
+- Topic titles come first: a community's `title.author` / `digest.author` tasks are queued at `COMMUNITY_PRIORITY`
+  (3, ahead of every other pending record's `FORMATION_PRIORITY` 5), so a drainer with a small budget names the
+  topics before a long repair tail. `communities_pass`'s `budget` goes to its topics, largest first, one call per
+  topic for both its title and its summary (`None` authors every topic); the receipt carries `budget` and
+  `budget_spent`. A topic's briefing keeps its member lines within 1500 tokens, the first line too.
+
+### Added: sleep cadence
+
+- `records_since_maintenance(system, *, scopes=None, after=None) -> {count, last_maintenance_at, since,
+  boundary_source, fragmented}`: the host's idle → sleep threshold. `sleep_pass` records when a whole night ran to
+  its end (a cancelled, `report_only` or anchored night records nothing; a cycle window is recorded as kind `cycle`
+  and does not reset the count); `after` is the host's own last maintenance, and the later of the two is the
+  boundary. `fragmented = {count, share, provisional, unvectored, pending}` says how much of the live home a sleep
+  would make whole. `MemoryTaskQueue.record_maintenance` / `last_maintenance`.
+- `sleep_pass(..., cancelled=None)`: the host's Stop check, read at every sub-phase boundary and immediately before
+  the completion marker; a stopped night records no completion and carries `cancelled_after`.
+
+### Added: the Stop fence hooks
+
+- `MemorySystem(..., commit_guard=None)`: the host's `guard(where)` is installed on the store and journal and called
+  inside every write transaction immediately before its COMMIT, once per outermost transaction, whoever writes (the
+  facade, `MemoryGraph`, the task queue, the sleep passes). Raising rolls the write back; nothing of it lands and the
+  exception reaches the caller unchanged. A store or journal type whose writes do not call a guard is refused
+  (`TypeError`), and so is a second, different guard (`ValueError`).
+- `MemorySystem.write_barrier(*, timeout=None)` / `write_barrier(system, *, timeout=None)`: a context manager the
+  host wraps around its flip of the guard. It holds this home's in-process locks in the writers' own order and one
+  `BEGIN IMMEDIATE` per distinct SQLite file, so every transaction whose guard passed commits before the block and
+  every later one calls its guard after it. It writes nothing; `WriteBarrierTimeout` names the lock or file still
+  held.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Stored text is never cut: a world-model card quotes its evidence whole, a dream signal's `fragment` is kept whole
+  (`dream_signals.FRAGMENT_CAP` is gone), an assertion's `original_context` renders whole in the canonical text, a
+  plain assertion's "s p o" display title and an imported file's prose are kept whole. Readers shorten text at
+  display time (`canonical_text.short_title`).
+- Titles are explicit and whole: a card formed from an interest keeps the interest's whole subject head as its
+  target; lesson-candidate, interest-candidate and group-offer titles are no longer bounded.
+- `world_model_pass`: an interest whose title heads to an alias of a card counts as an election of the card's
+  primary key.
+- `dream_pass` returns `signals` and `signals_omitted`.
+- `journal_cold_cut` copies the version family and the task queue.
+- The identity card's `lessons` section also counts the lessons written in the diary (`diary_type='lesson'`), once
+  each when a lesson record derives from the entry.
+- The identity card's record briefs carry the reading fields (`authored_by`, `understood_at`, `cause`,
+  `digest_version`, `version_count`); diary-redacted replay blocks carry `authored_by`, `understood_at` and `cause`,
+  never the entry's words.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- `records_since_maintenance(...)["fragmented"]["count"]` counts each live record once: a record both vector-less
+  and pending, or placed and pending, is one fragmented record, and a placement whose record has been closed since
+  counts in `provisional` only, so `share` never exceeds 1.0. The per-kind counts are unchanged.
+- Identical authored words settle a pending field: an in-place write whose words equal the provisional ones clears
+  the marker, completes the task and records the reading (it answered `unchanged` and left the task leased).
+- On the in-memory pair, formation and rewriting share one lock (they could deadlock), and a failed formation
+  removes only its own rows and bindings, never a concurrent writer's.
+- `form_with_tasks` calls the commit guard immediately before its COMMITs, after the rows, bindings and tasks.
+- A completed task no longer carries the error of an earlier failed attempt (the failure stays in the task log).
+- The wake-cue dedup pass no longer tokenizes a missing title as "None".
+
+### Deprecated
+
+- `apply_redigestion` (emits `DeprecationWarning`): use `rewrite_digest`.
+
