Summary

mem::evict deletes expired and old non-latest memories from KV but skips
the BM25 and vector indexes, so evicted ids keep taking result slots in
memory_recall/smart_search (the same symptom #632 reported: limit 1
returns empty until limit 2). BM25 rebuilds on restart, but the vector
index is restored without reconciling against KV, so dead ids never
clear.

Adds the index removals and indexCleaned to both memory delete branches.
Every other delete path already does this (#636); evict was missed.

The paths that set isLatest=false without index removal (consolidate,
auto-forget contradiction, heal) leave live records indexed rather than
dead ones, so I left them for a separate change.

Testing

  • Regression test per branch plus a dryRun case, in test/evict.test.ts
  • 3,840 tests passed
  • Build, skills, and docs checks passed

Devin Review

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Evicted expired and outdated memories are now removed from search results and vector-based retrieval.
    • Search indexes are updated and saved correctly after eviction, keeping results consistent.
    • Dry-run eviction no longer modifies search or vector indexes, preserving stored data during previews.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage to verify index cleanup, persistence, and dry-run behavior during memory eviction.

📝 Walkthrough

Eviction now removes expired and old non-latest memories from BM25 and vector indexes. It marks the index for persistence and flushes it during cleanup. Tests cover cleanup, persistence, and dry-run behavior.

Changes: Eviction Index Cleanup

Layer / File(s) Summary
Eviction index updates
src/functions/evict.ts, test/evict.test.ts
Expired and old non-latest eviction removes memory entries from BM25 and vector indexes. Cleanup flushes persistence after facet deletion. Tests verify cleanup, persistence, and unchanged indexes during dryRun.

Reset global index state in a finally block or afterEach hook.

These tests change process-wide state. setIndexPersistence(persistence) is never reset. setVectorIndex(null) is skipped if an assertion fails. The getSearchIndex() singleton also keeps mem_expired after the dry-run test, because that test asserts the entry stays in the index. A failed assertion can therefore leak state into later tests in the same file.

Add an afterEach hook that calls setIndexPersistence(null) and setVectorIndex(null). Also remove the test IDs from the search index in the hook.

♻️ Proposed fix
 describe("search-index cleanup", () => {
+    afterEach(() => {
+      setIndexPersistence(null);
+      setVectorIndex(null);
+      for (const id of ["mem_expired", "mem_stale"]) getSearchIndex().remove(id);
+    });
+

Import afterEach from vitest if it is not already imported. Then remove the inline setVectorIndex(null) calls.

🟡 Minor · Flush the index snapshot in the finally block. · evict.ts:416-420

src/functions/evict.ts:416-420
🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Flush the index snapshot in the finally block.

If decrementImageRef or recordAudit throws after index removal, control skips the post-loop flushIndexSave(). Pending-log replay only helps when the asynchronous pending-log write succeeds, and graceful shutdown does not cover an ungraceful process exit. The vector index can therefore restart from a stale snapshot.

Suggested fix
       } finally {
         await deleteFacetsForTargets(kv, deletedMemIds);
+        if (indexCleaned) await flushIndexSave();
       }

Move the index snapshot flush into the existing finally block after
deleteFacetsForTargets, so flushIndexSave runs whenever indexCleaned is true
even if decrementImageRef or recordAudit fails. Remove the redundant post-loop
flushIndexSave call while preserving the existing condition.

[The old non-latest test does not assert the branch-specific persistence flush. This is distinct from the expired-branch assertion because each branch can independently omit indexCleaned = true or its snapshot save while still removing entries from both in-memory indexes. Add a persistence.save spy and assert it after the old non-latest eviction.
