Lyra's inner loop for when no one's talking to her. Each pass senses her own
backlog/novelty, lets four drives build from real signals, and acts on those
past threshold:
- continuity -> summarize sessions with new turns
- coherence -> rebuild profile/eras/narrative (stale once new gists land)
- curiosity -> reflect() and evolve the self-state
- stability -> readout of how caught-up she ended up
Drives are rendered into chat context so she can feel them. Causal chain:
consolidation creates gists -> coherence rises -> integration fires next.
- lyra/dream.py: dream_cycle() + lyra-dream CLI (--force, --loop SECONDS)
- memory: backlog_stats(), profile_sessions_covered(), WAL + busy_timeout
so a separate dream process coexists with the web server
- self_state: DEFAULT_DRIVES baseline + drives in render_for_context
- tests/test_dream.py: backlog sensing + a full forced pass (LLM stubbed)
