Mark Salient (this matters now)
mark_salientIdempotent
Salience peptide — temporarily boost a fact's retrieval ranking because it matters RIGHT NOW: an approaching deadline, a live incident, the topic under active work. The boost is small and FAST-DECAYING (max 1.4x, ~6-hour half-life — gone by tomorrow), unlike reinforce_fact which rewards confirmed outcomes on a weeks-long timescale.
Name the current situation in reason. Salience is ranking-only: it can never override tenant isolation, namespace grants, or privacy filters, and stacked peptide boosts are globally capped.
