Lint: How a Trail Brain Keeps Itself Honest
A brain that is only ever added to gets bigger. One that is linted gets better. What Trail checks, how you set it per brain, and what each setting really does today.
Scaling Trail from 200 to 100,000 Neurons: An Engineering Note
A compile-time knowledge engine has three workloads that fight for compute — ingest, lint, and the curation queue. Each one breaks at a different corpus size, for different reasons, and requires a different fix. This is the long-form companion to Work That Fits in a Night: the full accounting of where Trail's bottlenecks are, when they hit, and what a deployment looks like at 200, 8,000, 25,000, and 100,000 Neurons.
Work That Fits in a Night: How Trail Stops Caring About Corpus Size
A compile-time knowledge system has to integrate new sources against everything it already knows. That integration cost grows with the corpus — until, one Tuesday, it stops finishing before the next night begins. Here is how Trail makes that cost bounded without going blind to the long tail.
