research: evaluate observed co-access signals for context recommendations

Question

After Execution Handoffs have accumulated, can observed co-access patterns safely improve context recommendations for a concrete task?

Scope

Evaluate signals from completed handoffs, such as documents, decisions, changed files, commits, and verification artefacts that repeatedly occur together for the same type of work.

The objective is to learn whether these signals can form useful task topics and recommend a compact context set for the next run.

Non-goals

automatic document merging;
changing canonical ownership or SSOT;
treating inferred semantic similarity as fact;
choosing a graph database before the data proves the need.

Deliverable

A short evidence-backed decision record that answers:

which signals are reliable enough to use;
whether temporal proximity and shared artefacts improve recommendations;
how to retain source provenance and user control;
whether a follow-up implementation issue is justified.

Dependencies

Human Gate: the research package is Decision Ready at HEAD a1cad4ee2745fbf4f9fe80e91b5d8f0393f4e2da, but two required predicates remain blocked.

The named decision owner (dapi/memory-bank maintainers) must review the evidence-backed recommendation and record or authorize the terminal disposition. The candidate recommends inconclusive: provenance-preserving, user-controlled co-access signals are safe to evaluate, but no implementation issue is justified until docs: define evidence-backed execution handoff contract #95 and feat: build a read-only execution handoff from explicit project evidence memory-bank-cli#47 are delivered and a representative completed-handoff corpus exists.
This runtime has worktree write but .git read-only, so it cannot create codex/gh-96, commit, push, or open the required PR. No Git mutation was attempted.

Current safe checkpoint:

memory-bank-cli lint --scope-root memory-bank --entrypoint memory-bank/README.md: passed
memory-bank-cli doctor --profile downstream: passed (one informational lock note)
git diff --check: passed
worktree: memory-bank/research/README.md modified; memory-bank/research/R-GH-96/ untracked

Resume this same run after a maintainer disposition is available and in a full-delivery profile with .git write plus authenticated GitHub write. Then re-ground sources/HEAD, apply the authorized disposition, create and push codex/gh-96, open the PR, report verification here, and replace codex-ready with human-review.

Human Gate: the evidence-backed research package is clean at the Decision Ready checkpoint, but two predicates block its terminal disposition and repository delivery.

The named decision owner (dapi/memory-bank maintainers) must authorize and record the terminal disposition in memory-bank/research/R-GH-96/brief.md. The recommendation remains inconclusive: direct, provenance-preserving handoff membership may be evaluated as optional, user-controlled candidate context; co-access, temporal proximity, and shared artefacts are not yet demonstrated to improve recommendations. Do not open an implementation issue now.
This run has worktree write but restricted .git write (HEAD a1cad4ee2745fbf4f9fe80e91b5d8f0393f4e2da), so it cannot create codex/gh-96, commit, push, or open the required PR. No Git mutation was attempted.

Freshness update: dapi/memory-bank-cli#47 now has open, unmerged PR #49 with passing checks; it remains implementation-candidate evidence only and does not provide completed handoffs or a representative corpus.

Verification performed:

memory-bank-cli lint --scope-root memory-bank --entrypoint memory-bank/README.md
memory-bank-cli doctor --profile downstream (0 errors, 0 warnings, one informational lock note)
git diff --check and untracked-document whitespace checks
artifact traceability/lifecycle review of the Research Flow package
attempted codex review --uncommitted; the restricted environment denied its app-server operation

Resume this same run after a maintainer disposition and in a full-delivery profile with .git write. Re-ground the sources/HEAD, apply the authorized status, then commit/push and open the PR; afterwards report the PR and verification here and replace codex-ready with human-review.

Verification passed: ruby tools/validate-priming-manifests.rb template/memory-bank (16); memory-bank-cli lint --scope-root memory-bank --entrypoint memory-bank/README.md; memory-bank-cli doctor --profile downstream (0 errors, 0 warnings, 1 informational note); git diff --check; and Run Ledger JSON validation.

Resume this same run after both conditions are met: re-ground, record the authorized disposition, then commit/push, open and verify the PR, report it here, and replace codex-ready with human-review.

STATUS: HUMAN_GATE

Re-grounded the persisted Research & Discovery run. R-GH-96 remains at the Decision Ready terminal-disposition gate: no independent dapi/memory-bank maintainer authorization/reference exists for the proposed research_status: inconclusive. The evidence-backed recommendation is unchanged: only direct handoff items with primary-source provenance are safe as optional, user-controlled candidates; co-access, temporal proximity, and shared artefacts are evaluation features, not demonstrated improvements. No implementation follow-up is justified while #95 and dapi/memory-bank-cli#47 remain open and no representative completed-handoff corpus exists.

This workspace is detached at a1cad4ee2745fbf4f9fe80e91b5d8f0393f4e2da and cannot write Git metadata, so I did not create codex/gh-96, commit, push, open a PR, verify CI, or change labels. Passed: memory-bank-cli lint --scope-root memory-bank --entrypoint memory-bank/README.md, memory-bank-cli doctor --profile downstream (0 errors, 0 warnings, 1 info), git diff --check, and Run Ledger JSON validation.

Resume only after (1) a maintainer records or authorizes the terminal disposition, and (2) a full-delivery workspace permits Git metadata writes. Then re-ground, complete the package delivery, verify CI, comment with the PR/check evidence, and replace codex-ready with human-review.

Human Gate remains after re-grounding (2026-08-05): R-GH-96 is Decision Ready, but no independent dapi/memory-bank maintainer has authorized or recorded the required terminal research_status: inconclusive in memory-bank/research/R-GH-96/brief.md.

The evidence-backed recommendation is unchanged: direct, provenance-preserving handoff membership may later be evaluated only as optional, user-controlled candidate context. Co-access, temporal proximity, and shared artefacts are not shown to improve recommendations; no implementation issue is justified now. Dependencies #95 and dapi/memory-bank-cli#47 remain open; CLI PRs #49 and #50 are open and unmerged, so there is no representative completed-handoff corpus.

This workspace has worktree write and authenticated GitHub access but restricted Git metadata writes at detached HEAD a1cad4ee2745fbf4f9fe80e91b5d8f0393f4e2da. I did not attempt branch creation, commit, push, PR, CI, or label mutation. Fresh git diff --check and Run Ledger JSON validation passed.

Resume this same run only after (1) a maintainer authorizes or records terminal inconclusive, and (2) it continues in a full-delivery workspace with writable Git metadata. Then re-ground, apply the disposition, deliver codex/gh-96, verify the PR, comment its URL and checks here, and replace codex-ready with human-review.

STATUS: HUMAN_GATE

Fresh re-grounding confirms the saved Research & Discovery terminal gate remains blocked. R-GH-96 is Decision Ready, but no independent dapi/memory-bank maintainer authorization/reference exists for the proposed terminal research_status: inconclusive. The evidence-backed recommendation remains: direct, provenance-preserving handoff membership may later be evaluated as optional, user-controlled candidate context; co-access, temporal proximity, and shared artefacts are evaluation features, not demonstrated improvements. No implementation follow-up is justified now.

Dependencies #95 and dapi/memory-bank-cli#47 remain open. This runtime is detached at a1cad4ee2745fbf4f9fe80e91b5d8f0393f4e2da and cannot write either Git metadata location, so I did not create codex/gh-96, commit, push, open a PR, verify CI, or change labels.

Passed: git diff --check and Run Ledger JSON validation. Resume only after (1) a maintainer authorizes or records the terminal disposition and (2) this same run continues in a full-delivery workspace with writable Git metadata. Then re-ground, complete PR delivery, verify CI, comment the PR/check evidence, and replace codex-ready with human-review.
