# memvid - Doramagic AI Context Pack > Purpose: pre-work context for the user's host AI. This pack does not prove that the project has been installed, run, or validated. ## Project - canonical_name: `memvid/memvid` - capability: Memory layer for AI Agents. Replace complex RAG pipelines with a serverless, single-file memory layer. Give your agents instant retrieval and long-term memory. - expected_user_outcome: Memory layer for AI Agents. Replace complex RAG pipelines with a serverless, single-file memory layer. Give your agents instant retrieval and long-term memory. ## Operating Boundaries - Do not claim that the project has been installed, run, called through an API, or used on local files unless separate evidence proves it. - Project facts must come from repo evidence, Claim Graph, or explicit source references. - When a capability is not verified, mark it as unverified instead of completing it as fact. - publish_status: `publishable` - blocking_gaps: none --- ## Doramagic Context Augmentation The following sections strengthen the repository context for a host AI. Human Manual data is a reading route, and pitfall notes become operating constraints. ## Human Manual Outline Usage rule: this is only a reading route and salience signal, not factual authority. Concrete claims must still return to repo evidence or Claim Graph. Host AI hard rules: - Do not treat page titles, section order, summaries, or importance values as factual project evidence. - When explaining the Human Manual outline, state that it is only a reading route or salience signal. - Capability, installation, compatibility, runtime state, and risk claims must cite repo evidence, source paths, or Claim Graph. - **Overview and System Architecture**: importance `high` - source_paths: README.md, MV2_SPEC.md, src/lib.rs, src/memvid/mod.rs, src/memvid/lifecycle.rs - **Core Features, Search and Ingestion**: importance `high` - source_paths: src/memvid/search/mod.rs, src/search/tantivy/engine.rs, src/search/tantivy/schema.rs, src/vec.rs, src/vec_pq.rs - **Data Operations, Time-Travel and Troubleshooting**: importance `high` - source_paths: src/memvid/mutation.rs, src/memvid/replay_ops.rs, src/memvid/timeline.rs, src/replay/engine.rs, src/replay/types.rs - **SDKs, Deployment, Docker and Provider Integration**: importance `high` - source_paths: README.md, Cargo.toml, docker/README.md, docker/cli/README.md, docker/cli/Dockerfile ## Repo Inspection Evidence - repo_clone_verified: true - repo_inspection_verified: true - repo_commit: `fa9efe5127fd807b8a9c14200e8fa59ae2170fd5` - inspected_files: `README.md`, `docs/i18n/CONTRIBUTING_TRANSLATIONS.md`, `docs/i18n/README.ar.md`, `docs/i18n/README.bn.md`, `docs/i18n/README.cs.md`, `docs/i18n/README.es.md`, `docs/i18n/README.fr.md`, `docs/i18n/README.hi.md`, `docs/i18n/README.ja.md`, `docs/i18n/README.ko.md`, `docs/i18n/README.md`, `docs/i18n/README.nl.md`, `docs/i18n/README.so.md`, `docs/i18n/README.zh-CN.md`, `docs/i18n/scripts/auto-add-flags.js`, `docs/i18n/scripts/update-localized-readmes.js` Host AI hard rules: - Without repo_clone_verified=true, do not claim that the source code has been read. - Without repo_inspection_verified=true, do not write README, docs, or package-file conclusions as facts. - Without quick_start_verified=true, do not claim that the Quick Start path has run successfully. ## Doramagic Pitfall Constraints These rules come from Doramagic discovery, validation, or compilation findings. The host AI must treat them as operating constraints, not background notes. ### Constraint 1: Installation risk requires verification - Trigger: Project evidence flags a installation risk. Review the linked source before relying on this workflow. - Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment. - Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user. - Evidence: community_evidence:github | https://github.com/memvid/memvid/issues/218 - Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it. ### Constraint 2: Installation risk requires verification - Trigger: Project evidence flags a installation risk. Review the linked source before relying on this workflow. - Host AI rule: Reproduce the official install and quickstart path in an isolated environment. - Why it matters: May increase setup, validation, or first-run risk for the user. - Evidence: community_evidence:github | https://github.com/memvid/memvid/issues/230 - Hard boundary: Do not present this pitfall as solved, verified, or ignorable unless later evidence explicitly closes it. ### Constraint 3: Installation risk requires verification - Trigger: Project evidence flags a installation risk.
