📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Project consolidation now reports moved record counts, no-op merges, and untouched sources. Project pruning adds path-only filtering, deterministic ordering, and success-only totals. Store pruning preserves sessions referenced by soft-deleted observations.

Changes

Project maintenance

Layer / File(s) Summary
Consolidation result reporting
cmd/engram/main.go, cmd/engram/main_test.go
Consolidation reports per-record movement, zero-record results, merged project counts, and sources left untouched. Tests cover single-project and all-project routes, including fuzzy matches that remain unmerged.
Path-filtered prune command
cmd/engram/main.go, cmd/engram/main_test.go
The prune command adds --paths-only, filters names containing / or \, sorts candidates, supports injectable deletion, documents the option, and counts only successful deletions.
Observation-aware project pruning
internal/store/store.go, internal/store/store_test.go
Pruning retains sessions referenced by soft-deleted observations and deletes only unreferenced sessions. Tests verify deletion counts and retained records.

Explanation

The PR satisfies the scoped cleanup and consolidation objectives from issue #283. It adds deterministic direct name matching, path-only cleanup, foreign-key-safe pruning, and successful-removal reporting. Bugs related to MCP ambiguity and case-sensitive search are not addressed, but they are outside this PR's stated scope.

Requesting changes. Project cleanup still calls fuzzy project.FindSimilar substring and Levenshtein matching, then merges projects that are not proven equivalent. Case-only variants can report completion with zero data movement. Restrict merging to normalized equivalence validated at the store boundary, preferably on top of corrected #810, and add a regression for the case-only path.

Adopt the normalized-equivalence consolidation contract from Gentleman-Programming#810 for both
the single-project and --all cleanup routes, dropping this branch's fuzzy
FindSimilar grouping and the tests that asserted it.
MergeProjects validates every source at the store boundary and fail-closes
on sources it cannot prove normalization-equivalent to the canonical name,
so a merge can succeed while moving no records at all. Both consolidation
routes announced completion regardless, which let a legacy variant survive
a "Done!" report with zero data movement.

Report the outcome from what the store actually moved: say nothing was
merged when no record changed hands, name the selected sources the store
left untouched after a partial merge, and print how many projects were
merged rather than implying all of them were.

Regressions cover the case-only variant moving its records with counts
matching the store, both routes refusing to claim completion on a no-op,
a partial merge naming the untouched source, and substring/Levenshtein
neighbours being neither offered nor merged in either route.

Resolved on top of the corrected #810, as the review asked.

Fuzzy matching no longer reaches any merge: grouping is by store.NormalizeProject equivalence and project.FindSimilar is unreachable from every cleanup path — its one remaining non-test caller is a save-time warning in MCP, which surfaces rather than merges. There is coverage pinning that, across both routes, for substring (engram / engram-memory) and Levenshtein (engram / engramm) neighbours.

The zero-movement report was still real and is fixed. The reachable path is trimmed variants, not case-only ones: " engram " normalizes to engram, is offered as a candidate, passes validation, then gets skipped by projectMergeSourceVariants — and the CLI still printed Done! Merged into "engram" with 0/0/0. The report is now derived from what the store actually moved: nothing moved says so, a partial merge names the sources left untouched, and the count reflects SourcesMerged rather than what was requested. The case-only regression is in too, cross-checked against real row counts.

Full suite and e2e green.

One behavior change worth your eye, inherited from #810 rather than introduced here: cleanup no longer surfaces similar-looking projects at all — a non-equivalent neighbour just yields No similar project names found. Left as main has it. Say the word if you want that surfacing back as a read-only suggestion.
