Turn the inert "Show Work" thinking panel into a real live activity log:
- lyra/logbus.py: thread-safe in-memory ring buffer other modules publish to
- chat.respond logs backend/model/embed per turn, recall counts, reply size;
web layer logs chat errors
- server: replace the keep-alive /stream/thinking stub with /stream/logs, an
SSE endpoint that replays the recent buffer then streams new events
- UI: repurpose the panel as a global "Live Log" — connects on load, renders
level/time/msg/fields, drops the old per-session localStorage + dead popup
Every turn now shows its backend + model in-app, so local-vs-cloud (free vs
paid) is visible at a glance.

Phase 1 — persona + persistent memory chat loop:
- lyra/persona.py + personas/lyra.md: editable identity/voice (friend-first,
honest, never invents poker math)
- lyra/chat.py: turn loop assembling persona + cross-session recall + recent
context, persisting both sides to SQLite
- lyra/session.py, lyra/__main__.py: session lifecycle + `lyra` REPL
Phase 1.25 — reuse the old web UI:
- vendored the prior single-page UI into lyra/web/static, repointed to
same-origin
- lyra/web/server.py (FastAPI): serves the UI and backs its endpoint contract
(/v1/chat/completions, session CRUD, health, inert thinking-stream) with the
new chat loop + memory; SQLite stays the single source of truth
- `lyra-web` console script
Local backends — test for free, no OpenAI key:
- llm.embed routes via EMBED_BACKEND (cloud=OpenAI, local=Ollama /api/embed)
- simplified UI backend selector to Local (Ollama) / Cloud (OpenAI), default local
- memory connection opened check_same_thread=False for the threaded server

- lyra.memory.remember(session_id, role, content) embeds and stores
- lyra.memory.recent(session_id, n) returns the last N from a session
- lyra.memory.recall(query, k, session_id=None) returns top-k by cosine
similarity across the chosen scope (all sessions by default)
- Embeddings live in the exchanges.embedding BLOB column as float32 bytes
- Connection reopens automatically if LYRA_DB_PATH changes (test-friendly)
- lyra.config.load() reads env into a frozen Config dataclass
- lyra.llm.complete(messages, backend) routes to Ollama /api/chat or
OpenAI chat completions
- lyra.llm.embed(texts) calls OpenAI embeddings
- .env.example switched from Anthropic to OpenAI to match available key
