ZBBS-WORK-391: dream_source=notes — dream from curated notes (MEM-137)#230
Merged
Conversation
Companion accounts whose memory model is hand-curation (zero
conversations/* logs) had dream_mode as a silent no-op — the cron
sources exclusively from conversations/%. New per-agent dream_source
flag ('conversation' default | 'notes') swaps only the sourcing step:
- notes mode selects all namespace notes EXCEPT the pipeline's own
output prefixes (conversations/dreams/context/learnings — load-bearing
against self-feedback bloat), windowed by updated_at so a later human
edit re-enters the note as fresh material.
- No signal prefilter in notes mode: SIGNAL_PATTERNS are conversational
markers that curated prose rarely contains; notes are fed whole with
slug+date headers (buildNotesLog, tested).
- First run starts at the earliest note's updated_at (not last-24h) so
the soul accretes over the full authored history in per-day chunks;
empty days skip cheaply.
- People + learnings passes are skipped in notes mode: extractSpeakers
parses conversation formats and would misparse prose into junk
context/people/* files. Notes-sourced dreaming writes only dreams/*
and context/soul.
- Dream/soul downstream unchanged; conversation-mode behavior untouched.
- Admin API: dream_source readable (get/list) and settable (create/
update) with the same validation shape as dream_mode. agent_status
view untouched — the list endpoint pulls it off its existing
agent_configuration join.

Adds a per-agent
