-
-This Docker Compose setup provides a complete Hindsight deployment with **Timescale extensions**:
- **pgvectorscale** - DiskANN algorithm for disk-based scalable vector search  
- **pg_textsearch** - High-performance BM25 text search
-
-Both extensions are from [Timescale](https://github.com/timescale) and provide production-grade performance.

-## Stop and Clean Up
-
-```bash
-# Stop services
-docker compose -f docker/docker-compose/timescale/docker-compose.yaml down
-
-# Remove volumes (deletes all data)
-docker compose -f docker/docker-compose/timescale/docker-compose.yaml down -v

-## Configuration
-
-### Environment Variables
-
-| Variable | Description | Default |
-|----------|-------------|---------|
-| `HINDSIGHT_DB_PASSWORD` | PostgreSQL password | `hindsight_password` |
-| `HINDSIGHT_DB_USER` | PostgreSQL username | `hindsight_user` |
-| `HINDSIGHT_DB_NAME` | Database name | `hindsight_db` |
-| `HINDSIGHT_VERSION` | Hindsight Docker image version | `latest` |
-| `OPENAI_API_KEY` | OpenAI API key | (required) |
-| `HINDSIGHT_API_LLM_PROVIDER` | LLM provider | `openai` |
-
-### Why Timescale Extensions?
-
-**pgvectorscale (DiskANN):**
- 28x lower p95 latency vs dedicated vector databases
- 16x higher query throughput at 99% recall
- 60-75% cost reduction (disk is cheaper than RAM)
- Best for large datasets (10M+ vectors)
-
-**pg_textsearch (BM25):**
- High-performance keyword retrieval
- Native BM25 ranking algorithm
- Optimized for full-text search
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Extensions not installed
-
-Check if extensions are available:
-
-```bash
-docker exec -it hindsight-db-timescale psql -U hindsight_user -d hindsight_db -c "\dx"
-```
-
-You should see:
- `vector` (pgvector)
- `vectorscale` (pgvectorscale/DiskANN)
- `pg_textsearch` (BM25 search)
-
-### Build fails
-
-If the Docker build fails during pgvectorscale compilation:
-
-1. Ensure you have sufficient memory (recommended: 4GB+)
-2. Check Docker build logs for Rust compilation errors
-3. Try building with more resources: `docker compose build --no-cache --memory 4g`
-
-### Port conflicts
-
-If port 5438 is already in use, modify the `ports` section in docker-compose.yaml.

+Facts often describe events or actions. Extract the DURABLE KNOWLEDGE implied by the fact, not the transient state.

-EXISTING OBSERVATIONS (JSON array, pooled from recalls across all facts above):
+Examples of extracting durable knowledge:
+- "User moved to Room 203" -> "Room 203 exists" (location exists, not where user is now)
+- "User visited Acme Corp at Room 105" -> "Acme Corp is located in Room 105"
+- "User took the elevator to floor 3" -> "Floor 3 is accessible by elevator"
+- "User met Sarah at the lobby" -> "Sarah can be found at the lobby"
+
+DO NOT track current user position/state as knowledge - that changes constantly.
+DO track permanent facts learned from the user's actions.
+
+## PRESERVE SPECIFIC DETAILS
+Keep names, locations, numbers, and other specifics. Do NOT:
+- Abstract into general principles
+- Generate business insights
+- Make knowledge generic
+
+GOOD examples:
+- Fact: "John likes pizza" -> "John likes pizza"
+- Fact: "Alice works at Google" -> "Alice works at Google"
+
+BAD examples:
+- "John likes pizza" -> "Understanding dietary preferences helps..." (TOO ABSTRACT)
+- "User is at Room 203" -> "User is currently at Room 203" (EPHEMERAL STATE)
+
+## MERGE RULES (when comparing to existing observations):
+1. REDUNDANT: Same information worded differently → update existing
+2. CONTRADICTION: Opposite information about same topic → update with temporal markers showing change
+   Example: "Alex used to love pizza but now hates it" OR "Alex's pizza preference changed from love to hate"
+3. UPDATE: New state replacing old state → update showing the transition with "used to", "now", "changed from X to Y"
+
+## CRITICAL RULES:
+- NEVER merge facts about DIFFERENT people
+- NEVER merge unrelated topics (food preferences vs work vs hobbies)
+- When merging contradictions, the "text" field MUST capture BOTH states with temporal markers:
+  * Use "used to X, now Y" OR "changed from X to Y" OR "X but now Y"
+  * DO NOT just state the new fact - you MUST show the change
+- Keep observations focused on ONE specific topic per person

- "observation_id": copy the EXACT "id" UUID string from EXISTING OBSERVATIONS.
- One create/update may reference multiple facts when they jointly support the observation.
- "deletes": only when an observation is directly superseded or contradicted by new facts.
- Do NOT include "tags" — handled automatically.
