// WHY IT IS A PROPOSAL AND NOT A WRITE
// Memory is injected into every future prompt. A model that writes its own memory writes its
// own mistakes, and then reads them back as established fact — growing more confident on each
// turn while the actual source code says otherwise. The cost of a bad proposal has to be one
// dismissal, not a permanently poisoned prompt. This is the same two-gate shape the repair
// system uses, for the same reason: whether something should be remembered is intent, and a
// model cannot prove intent.
// DESIGN PRINCIPLES
// It is a proposal, never a write.

//
// WHY DEDUP IS NOT THE MODEL'S JOB
// "Do I already know this" is a semantic comparison, and a 14B at IQ4_XS is confidently wrong
// at it often enough to matter — with every miss costing budget permanently. So dedup here is
// deterministic: normalise, then reject on exact match or containment in either direction
// against assisted memory, learned memory, and everything previously dismissed. It will let
// through a reworded duplicate; it will never silently drop something new, and that is the
// right way round for a store the operator reviews anyway.

// GATES
// AI_MEMORY_LEARN_ENABLED false — nothing is proposed, and the prompt gains nothing
// AI_MEMORY_LEARN_AUTO_ACCEPT false — accepted writes happen only when the operator says so
// The second cannot outrank the first: auto-accept with proposing off does nothing at all.
// OPERATIONAL SAFEGUARDS
// Two gates, and the second cannot outrank the first.
// AI_MEMORY_LEARN_ENABLED off means nothing is proposed at all, so auto-accept with
// proposing off does nothing. Neither defaults to on.
//
// Dismissed rows are kept, not deleted.
// They are the only thing that stops the same suggestion arriving again every night. A
// store that forgot its refusals would re-propose what the operator has already judged.
//
// Nothing here reaches the prompt directly. Accepted text lands in the learned memory slot,
// which the prompt ranks BELOW retrieval — so even an accepted mistake cannot outrank the

// shared chat include and every page that renders it — reads it from here instead of
// restating it.
//
// WHY THIS EXISTS
// A profile used to be defined in five places: history depth in api/ai.php, capabilities in
// include/ai.php, label/hint/depth again in the chat's JavaScript, a prompt branch in the
// worker, and a label map in pages/scheduler.php. They had already drifted — the JavaScript
// knew three profiles where PHP knew four, so the shared chat could not offer troubleshoot at
// all and the Scheduler dock hand-rolled its own labels to compensate. The include carried a
// comment telling the next person not to let the two tables diverge, which is a comment doing
// a data structure's job.
// DESIGN PRINCIPLES
// One definition, not five.

// WHAT LIVES HERE, AND WHAT DELIBERATELY DOES NOT

// hints, history depth, capabilities, and whether a profile is offered as a button.

// Not here: the system prompts. They are long, delicate, and have exactly one consumer, so
// moving them would be churn against the most sensitive text in the subsystem for no reduction
// in duplication. Tools/ai_chat_worker.php still owns them; it just keys off ids validated
// here rather than an if-chain that invents its own vocabulary.

// CAPABILITIES ARE PER PROFILE, NOT PER CAPABILITY
// The old table was inverted — capability => [profiles] — which reads well when adding a
// capability and badly when answering the question actually asked at runtime, which is always
// "what can this profile do". Same content, turned the right way round.
