serversdown 3b0b808986 feat: give Lyra a declarative self-model of her whole architecture
Part 1 of the "she should know HOW she thinks" work. Generalizes the dream-cycle
self-model fix to her full cognition: a "How you actually work" persona section
covering meaning-based memory recall, the memory tiers, her persistent inner
life + dream cycle, and time-awareness — so when asked how she thinks/remembers
she answers accurately instead of confabulating or reciting stale specs. Kept
principled (not implementation detail) to limit staleness.

Lyra

A persistent, autonomous AI assistant. From-scratch rewrite of an earlier attempt.

The design thinking that survives the rewrite lives in docs/ — start with docs/ARCH_v0-6-1.md. The previous implementation is preserved on the archive branch.

Status

Pre-MVP. Building toward the smallest useful version: chat with persistent memory across sessions.

Setup

uv sync
cp .env.example .env
# fill in ANTHROPIC_API_KEY and point LOCAL_BASE_URL at your Ollama

Architecture

The long-term target is the cognitive split in docs/ARCH_v0-6-1.md — Inner Self as the seat of consciousness, Executive for hard reasoning, Cortex Chat for drafting, Persona for voice. The MVP implements only the chat + memory baseline. Cognitive layers come back one at a time.
