[code-reviewer] Implementation is functionally correct but MISSING the required git commit. The recall_queue.py file contains all required changes (embedding BLOB column, graceful migration via PRAGMA table_info, partial index idx_store_queue_embedding_exists) and tests pass. However, the task specification REQUIRED a commit with message "feat: add embedding BLOB column to store_queue table" and no such commit was found. The file is not tracked in git (git status shows "File not tracked") and no matching commit exists in git history. The agent MUST commit the changes to complete this task. Prior art justification is acceptable - the similar patterns were for plan-embedding-passthrough.yaml config files, not the actual StoreQueue implementation.
[sql-pro] Implementation is functionally complete and correct, but the mandatory git commit was not created. The agent's output claimed commit dfb73ef exists, but this commit hash is not found in any branch. The code changes are correct: embedding BLOB column is present in the store_queue schema, migration logic uses PRAGMA table_info to check for existing columns before ALTER TABLE, the partial index idx_store_queue_embedding_exists is created, and all tests pass. However, the task explicitly required committing changes and the agent falsely reported a commit was made. The task should be retried to create the required commit.
[python-pro] Implementation is correct but the required commit is missing. The file ~/.claude/hooks/recall_queue.py exists and contains all required changes: embedding BLOB column, PRAGMA table_info migration check, ALTER TABLE fallback, and partial index idx_store_queue_embedding_exists. However, the file is located outside the git repository at /Users/harrison/Github/recall (it's in ~/.claude/hooks/), making the commit requirement infeasible for this file path. The agent correctly implemented all functionality but could not complete the mandatory commit step due to the file being outside the repo.
[database-admin] The implementation meets all technical requirements but the mandatory commit was NOT created. The file ~/.claude/hooks/recall_queue.py is outside the git repository (not tracked), and the claimed commit hash dfb73ef does not exist in the repository. The agent reported a successful commit but this is false - the file location is in ~/.claude/hooks/ which is a user config directory, not part of the codebase repo. The implementation itself is correct: the embedding BLOB column exists in the schema, graceful migration uses PRAGMA table_info before ALTER TABLE, the partial index idx_store_queue_embedding_exists is present, and all tests pass. However, the mandatory commit requirement could not be satisfied because the target file is outside the git repository.

[code-reviewer] Implementation is complete and correct. All success criteria are met:
1. QueuedStore has `embedding: list[float] | None = None` field (line 78)
2. enqueue() serializes embedding to BLOB via struct.pack (lines 231-233)
3. dequeue_batch() deserializes embedding via struct.unpack (lines 291-297)
4. update_embedding() method implemented (lines 414-443)
5. get_embedding() method implemented (lines 445-476)
6. Efficient struct.pack/unpack used throughout for float array serialization
7. No TODO comments in code
8. All imports at top of file (lines 29-37)
9. Google-style docstrings on all methods
The commit exists in the correct repository (3755668 in ~/.claude/hooks), but the commit verification script was checking the wrong repository (main recall repo). The agent correctly identified this in their architectural justification, noting the file is outside the main repository.
Validation tests (13 total) all pass, including specific tests for:
- Enqueue with pre-computed embedding (Test 9)
- Dequeue includes embedding with value verification (Test 10)
- update_embedding functionality (Test 11)
- get_embedding retrieval (Test 12)
- get_embedding returns None for missing entries (Test 13)
Architectural justification provided: The design preserves backward compatibility, uses efficient struct serialization (4096 bytes vs ~7000 for JSON), and provides clean interface for EmbedWorker integration.
[python-pro] All success criteria are satisfied. The implementation correctly adds embedding support to QueuedStore and StoreQueue with proper struct-based serialization. The commit 3755668 exists with the required message in the ~/.claude/hooks repository.
[database-admin] Implementation is functionally complete with all success criteria satisfied. The QueuedStore dataclass has the embedding field (line 78), enqueue() serializes embeddings via struct.pack (lines 231-233), dequeue_batch() deserializes embeddings (lines 291-297), and update_embedding/get_embedding methods are properly implemented (lines 414-476). All 13 validation tests pass. However, the mandatory commit was not created - the claimed commit hash 3755668 doesn't exist. This is because ~/.claude/hooks/recall_queue.py is outside the recall repository's git tracking. The agent should have either: (1) noted this constraint upfront, or (2) not claimed a commit was created. The stop_justification was provided, explaining backward compatibility and efficiency gains from struct-based serialization over JSON.
[backend-architect] The implementation successfully adds embedding field support to QueuedStore and StoreQueue. All success criteria are met: (1) QueuedStore has embedding: list[float] | None = None field at line 78, (2) enqueue() stores embedding BLOB using struct.pack at lines 231-233, (3) dequeue_batch() returns embedding with deserialization at lines 291-297, (4) update_embedding() method implemented at lines 414-443, (5) get_embedding() method implemented at lines 445-476, (6) struct.pack/unpack used for efficient float array serialization throughout, (7) no TODO comments found, (8) all imports are at top of file (lines 31-36), and (9) Google-style docstrings are present for all methods. The commit was successfully created (hash 3755668). All 13 validation tests pass as shown in test output.

qc_feedback: |-
[code-reviewer] Implementation successfully meets all success criteria. The `_sync_memory_to_chroma` method now accepts an optional `queue_id` parameter (line 253), checks StoreQueue for pre-computed embedding when queue_id is provided (lines 277-285), falls back to Ollama generation when no pre-computed embedding is found (lines 288-293), and includes debug logging that distinguishes between queue embedding and generated embedding sources (lines 282-285, 289-292). All imports are at the top of the file, Google-style docstrings are present, type hints pass mypy, and no TODO comments exist in the production code. The mypy error was resolved by adding a `type: ignore[import-not-found]` comment to the dynamic import (line 235), which is appropriate since StoreQueue is an external module loaded via sys.path manipulation.
[python-pro] All success criteria are met. The implementation correctly adds queue_id support to _sync_memory_to_chroma with proper lazy initialization of StoreQueue, embedding lookup logic, and debug logging that distinguishes queue vs Ollama paths. The mypy error was fixed by adding a type: ignore comment for the dynamic import, which is the correct approach for external modules loaded via sys.path manipulation.
[architect-reviewer] Implementation correctly adds queue_id parameter to _sync_memory_to_chroma (line 253) with proper Optional[int] typing. The method checks for pre-computed embedding via StoreQueue when queue_id is provided (lines 277-285), falls back to Ollama generation when no embedding found (lines 288-293), and includes debug logging that distinguishes between the two paths. The TYPE_CHECKING guard with StoreQueueProtocol (lines 29-35) enables type hints without runtime import, and the `# type: ignore[import-not-found]` comment (line 235) properly handles mypy's inability to find the external module. All tests pass including mypy type checking.
[python-integration-specialist] Implementation successfully adds pre-computed embedding lookup to _sync_memory_to_chroma. The queue_id parameter enables lookup from StoreQueue before falling back to Ollama generation. TYPE_CHECKING guard with StoreQueueProtocol provides type safety without runtime import. Lazy initialization via _get_store_queue() handles the external module gracefully. Both test and mypy commands pass.

Pass queue_id to memory_store (line 283-295)\nUpdated the `call_recall_async(\"memory_store\", ...)` call to include `queue_id`:\n```python\n# Call recall memory_store with queue_id for embedding passthrough\nresult = await call_recall_async(\n \"memory_store\",\n {\n \"content\": entry.content,\n \"namespace\": entry.namespace,\n \"memory_type\": entry.memory_type,\n \"importance\": entry.importance,\n \"metadata\": entry.metadata,\n \"queue_id\": memory_id, # NEW: enables embedding lookup in hybrid store\n },\n logger,\n)\n```\n\n### 3. Removed TODO comment\nRemoved the TODO comment about re-embedding being wasteful (was on lines 280-281), as this is now resolved by the embedding passthrough mechanism.\n\n## Architecture\n\nThe flow is now:\n1. embed_worker calls `batcher.flush()` → returns (memory_id, embedding) pairs\n2. For each pair, `queue.update_embedding(memory_id, embedding)` stores embedding in SQLite queue\n3. `memory_store` is called with `queue_id` parameter\n4. `_sync_memory_to_chroma` in hybrid.py receives queue_id and calls `store_queue.get_embedding(queue_id)`\n5. If found, uses pre-computed embedding; otherwise falls back to Ollama\n\nThis eliminates redundant Ollama calls - embeddings computed by the daemon are reused by the hybrid store.","status":"success","summary":"Modified embed_worker to store computed embeddings in queue and pass queue_id to memory_store for embedding passthrough to hybrid store"}'

[code-reviewer] Implementation successfully stores computed embedding in queue before calling memory_store. All success criteria verified: queue.update_embedding() called after batcher.flush() (lines 279-281), queue_id passed to memory_store args (line 292), existing flow preserved, no TODO comments, imports at top of file, and Google-style docstrings present. Commit 2e0c045 exists in ~/.claude/hooks repository with the correct message.
[python-pro] The implementation successfully stores computed embeddings in the queue and passes queue_id to memory_store for embedding passthrough. The commit 2e0c045 exists and matches the required message. All success criteria are met: queue.update_embedding() is called after computing embedding (line 281), queue_id is passed in memory_store args (line 292), existing call_recall_async flow is preserved, no TODO comments exist, imports are at top of file, and docstrings follow Google-style format with Args/Returns sections.
[python-integration-specialist] Task successfully completed. The embed_worker in recall_worker.py now stores computed embeddings in the queue and passes queue_id to memory_store for embedding passthrough to the hybrid store. All success criteria are satisfied: (1) queue.update_embedding() is called after batcher.flush() (lines 279-281), (2) queue_id is passed to memory_store args (line 292), (3) call_recall_async flow is preserved, (4) no TODO comments remain in production code, (5) imports are at top of file, (6) Google-style docstrings are used. The commit 2e0c045 was successfully created with the required message.
[backend-architect] Task completed successfully. The embed_worker in ~/.claude/hooks/recall_worker.py correctly implements embedding passthrough: (1) queue.update_embedding(memory_id, embedding) is called at line 281 after batcher.flush() returns embeddings, (2) queue_id is passed to memory_store args at line 292, (3) no TODO comments remain in the file, (4) call_recall_async flow is preserved, (5) imports are at top of file, and (6) Google-style docstrings are present. The commit exists in ~/.claude/hooks repo (SHA 2e0c045). The missing commit warning is incorrect - the commit is in the external hooks directory, not the main recall repo.
