mnemo-engine 0.7.0

//! [`EmbedCmd`] — spawn a child process once, speak a line-delimited
//! JSON protocol to it, reuse it for every subsequent embed (Phase 3,
//! PR 10b + 10b.2).
//!
//! Motivation: a Python embedder loading `sentence-transformers` can
//! take seconds just to import, so the obvious design — spawn one
//! child per embed — makes MCP unusably slow. Instead the child runs
//! once per [`crate::Mnemo`] handle, reads a line of JSON per request
//! from stdin, writes a line of JSON per response to stdout, and keeps
//! running until the handle is dropped (closing stdin, which the
//! child uses as its exit signal).
//!
//! ### Protocol
//! - **Input (one per line):** a JSON-encoded string. Newlines inside
//!   the string are escaped as `\n` by JSON, so framing is unambiguous.
//! - **Output (one per line):** a JSON array of floats, in the same
//!   order as the inputs.
//! - The child **must `flush()` stdout after each line** or the next
//!   [`EmbedCmd::embed`] call will time out (default 60s, configurable
//!   via [`EmbedCmd::with_timeout`] and the `--embed-timeout` CLI
//!   flag).
//! - **Stdout is reserved for replies only.** Any line written to
//!   stdout outside a reply (startup banners, log messages, warnings)
//!   is treated as a protocol violation — EmbedCmd restarts the child
//!   and surfaces a clear error. Log to **stderr** instead; stderr is
//!   inherited to the parent and is safe to use.
//! - Dimensionality is enforced per-vector; wrong-width or malformed
//!   replies cause the child to be killed and respawned on the next
//!   call, so no mismatched vector is ever returned.
//!
//! ### Reference embedder (Python + sentence-transformers)
//! ```python
//! import sys, json
//! from sentence_transformers import SentenceTransformer
//! m = SentenceTransformer("sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2")
//! for line in sys.stdin:
//!     text = json.loads(line)                       # one string
//!     v = m.encode([text], normalize_embeddings=True)[0].tolist()
//!     print(json.dumps(v), flush=True)              # one JSON array
//! # Any logs: print("…", file=sys.stderr, flush=True)
//! ```
//! Then start the engine with:
//! `mnemo serve --mcp agent.mnemo --embed-cmd "python3 embedder.py" --embed-name "sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2"`
//!
//! ### Correctness guarantees (PR 10b.2)
//! - **Real timeouts.** A background thread owns the child's stdout
//!   and drains lines into a channel; [`EmbedCmd::embed`] reads via
//!   `recv_timeout`, so a silent-but-alive child trips the timeout
//!   deterministically. The reader thread also keeps stdout drained
//!   while we write stdin, which prevents the large-batch deadlock a
//!   write-all-then-read-all design would have.
//! - **Never a mismatched vector.** Any protocol error (write failure,
//!   timeout, EOF, malformed JSON, wrong width, zero vector, or
//!   unsolicited stdout output before a request) kills the child, drops
//!   the reader thread, and marks the adapter for restart. The next
//!   [`EmbedCmd::embed`] call spawns a fresh child + reader thread
//!   with the same argv/env/timeout before writing anything, and logs
//!   one line to stderr saying it restarted and why. The alternative
//!   — reading leftover output as a new reply — would silently
//!   corrupt recall quality, which is strictly worse than any error.
