改了什么

/context 的响应从四键变五键,多一个 tier:

             sendJson(res, 200, {
               profile: (settings?.getProfile?.() ?? "").trim(),
               rules: settings?.getRules?.() ?? [],
               items: service.toApiList(items),
-              pinnedCount: pinnedStats.shown ?? 0
+              pinnedCount: pinnedStats.shown ?? 0,
+              tier
             });

档位判据(src/api-standalone.js 的 /context 处理器内):

tier(查询向量, 查询串)
  if 查询串为空        → "unknown"   语义路未启用,不宣称档位
  if 查询向量非空       → "full"      语义档,嵌入真的成功了
  else                → "degraded"  规则档,且是因为降级

三个取值都是 fail-closed 的:判不出来报 unknown,不报 full。

为什么

嵌入降级在调用方视角原本完全静默——items 看着正常,只是召回质量悄悄变差。以 /context 为唯一注入来源的第三方(Mneme Bridge 的 remote 模式)无法感知自己长期跑在降级档上:它的回落逻辑只在 404 / 网络失败 / 响应形状不符时触发,静默降级不触发。对外表现是「检索质量莫名下降」而非报错,排查成本落在调用方。

Evidence

Before(node --test test/standalone-api.test.js,改动撤回后):

✖ GET /context returns the injection-shaped aggregate; empty q still serves the rule tier (10.7873ms)
✔ GET /context survives a throwing embedder (rule-tier degradation, never 500) (9.5947ms)
✖ GET /context tier=full when the query embedding succeeds (9.3726ms)
✖ GET /context tier=degraded when no embedder is injected (9.1357ms)
✖ GET /context tier=degraded when the query embedding times out (53.29ms)
✖ GET /context tier=degraded when the embedder returns an unusable vector (9.9375ms)
ℹ tests 33
ℹ pass 28
ℹ fail 5

  AssertionError: 形状锁
    -   'tier'
    expected: [ 'items', 'pinnedCount', 'profile', 'rules', 'tier' ],

After(同一条命令,应用改动后):

✔ GET /context returns the injection-shaped aggregate; empty q still serves the rule tier (10.7498ms)
✔ GET /context survives a throwing embedder (rule-tier degradation, never 500) (9.737ms)
✔ GET /context tier=full when the query embedding succeeds (8.927ms)
✔ GET /context tier=degraded when no embedder is injected (8.2516ms)
✔ GET /context tier=degraded when the query embedding times out (52.0773ms)
✔ GET /context tier=degraded when the embedder returns an unusable vector (9.7888ms)
ℹ tests 33
ℹ pass 33
ℹ fail 0

新增 4 条覆盖你点名的三条路(embedder 注入 / 缺省 / 嵌入超时)外加一条空向量;原有形状锁同步改成五键并锁 tier 必填。

全量:npm test 2307 passed / 0 failed;npm run sync + check-sync 76 文件平价;git diff --check 干净。

Merge Danger

Door: two-way。git revert 即完全回退,无数据迁移、无 schema 变更、无配置键。

Blast Radius: 一个响应多一个键——纯增量,现有四键的语义与形状不动,存量调用方按原四键读取完全不受影响。

行为变化仅限"多暴露一个信息":调用方从此能看见自己是否跑在降级档。没有改变 /context 实际返回哪些 items,也没有改变降级本身的发生条件(embedQueryVector / withEmbedTimeout 的兜底逻辑原样,只是多回写一个 diag.reason;diag 不传时行为与既往逐字节一致)。

三点想请你定

1. 你指的"现成数据源"在 standalone 侧不存在,但结果更好。
你说「/health 已经在报 embeddingDimensionBreakdown(2e45040),数据源是现成的,不需要新算」。实测:standalone 的 /health(api-standalone.js:320)只返回 { ok: true };embeddingDimensionBreakdown 在 src/api.js:1153(宿主内 API),standalone 侧没有。更根本的,它是扫库里已存向量的维度分布(store.js:1788),回答的是"存下来的向量有没有维度不齐",而不是"此刻 embedder 在不在、这次嵌入超没超时"——对 /context 的降级判定用不上。

所以档位改成在现有代码路径里直接观测,零新增计算。

2. 没加独立的"降级原因"响应键,原因是你的两条要求冲突。
你的第 2 条要"降级原因可枚举",第 3 条要"断言四键变五键"——加原因字段就变六键。我的取舍:响应体只加 tier 一个键(严格满足第 1、3 条),原因回收进 diag 走 daemon 日志,枚举值 no-embedder / embed-unavailable / embed-empty / embed-timeout / embed-error。

如果你要六键(加 tierReason),我加一个 commit 就行。

3. 空 q 报 unknown 而不是 degraded。
/search 把「空查询」和「向量失败」混为一路都报 keyword(api-standalone.js:634)。严格"与 /search 对齐"的话空 q 该报 degraded。但空 q 时语义路根本没启用,那不是降级——报 degraded 等于把一次正常调用说成故障。而你强调 fail-closed,所以报 unknown。

改成 degraded 也是一个词的改动。

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • 功能更新
    • /context 响应新增状态档位:成功获取查询向量时为 full,未能获取时为 degraded,查询为空时为 unknown。
    • 查询嵌入不可用、超时、返回空向量或发生异常时,系统会记录降级原因,并继续以降级模式处理。

在 embedQueryVector 边界拒绝无效向量。

当前检查只确认数组非空。非数值或非有限元素仍会传入 service.injectCandidates(...)。语义召回可能没有有效分数,但 /context 仍因 queryVector 非空而返回 tier: "full"。这不符合 full 表示语义嵌入成功的 fail-closed 约定。

请在 src/api-standalone.js 的嵌入结果边界检查每个元素均为有限数值,并同步生成 lib 实现。

Suggested fix
-  if (!Array.isArray(vector) || !vector.length) {
+  if (!Array.isArray(vector) || !vector.length ||
+      !vector.every((value) => Number.isFinite(value))) {
     if (diag) diag.reason = "embed-empty";
     return undefined;
   }

留言里的三态与 fail-closed 都兑现了,形状锁也补了(空 q → unknown 不宣称档位这条写得很清楚)。两个问题:

1:「维度不符」这一档去哪了?
你在 #383 写的枚举是「无 embedder / 维度不符 / 索引未就绪」,交付的四个原因是 embed-unavailable / embed-empty / embed-timeout / embed-error。维度不符是被 embed-error 吸收了(那枚举名与注释要说明它装了什么),还是这条路径确实没被区分出来?issue 里点名的正是「维度不符导致悄悄退化成纯 BM25」那一种,所以我倾向它得有自己的名字。

2:档位是用延迟换的吗?
判档看起来不是复用 /health 已经在算的 embeddingDimensionBreakdown,而是每次 /context 现场起一次查询嵌入(withEmbedTimeout(embedQueryVector(...)))。留言里写的是「数据源用 /health 已经在算的那份,不重算」。如果确实是现场嵌入,这是明确的取舍(信号换一次往返 + 一个超时窗口),值得在注释和文档里写预算;如果不是,我读错了代码,请指一下。

3:文档扫面缺了。
tier 是数据面响应的新键,四个降级原因也是新的对外读数,但 docs/DAEMON.md 与 dsh-mneme/README.md 的外部 API 段都没有它们。本仓的纪律是改代码当轮扫文档(尤其这种「别人排查时第一眼看的就是它」的信号)。另外请写清「tier 是响应读数、diag.reason 是日志读数」这两套消费者的分工——现在这句话只有读代码才知道。
