Orionfold Cortex recall layer
What it is

Your second brain on one DGX Spark, driven end-to-end on its own corpus: re-index from the Arena control plane, score chunk-recall@k against a gold set, gate any rebuild that drops it, and query with a provenance/trust filter — private by construction, on the machine under your desk.

Inside Cortex

4 surfaces, one recall loop

Coverage and freshness as a number, not a guess

One glance shows how much of your corpus is indexed, how much is stale, and what fraction of chunks carry a provenance stamp — the silent drift that used to bite becomes a figure you can act on.

Re-index from the control plane

Hit rebuild and a re-index job drains through the same MCP harness the agent uses, with a RAG-eval scoring job chained behind it — watch both move across the board, no shell, no script.

A recall gate that won't let a rebuild regress

Every rebuild scores chunk-recall@k against an in-repo gold set and is gated like-for-like against the prior index — so a re-index that quietly drops recall is caught before it's promoted.

A provenance-filtered query console

Ask the Second Brain in plain language and get back cited chunks tagged by trust tier — a Spark-measured source and an external claim are never silently interchangeable.

Orionfold Cortex — live preview
Live preview

Drive the recall loop yourself

The preview is recorded on a DGX Spark and runs sidecar-less — no GPU, no backend, nothing phones home. Click rebuild and watch the re-index and RAG-eval jobs drain; the recall gate, coverage report, and provenance-filtered query console are the genuine cuts.

Walk the knowledge pane, score a rebuild against the gold set, query the Second Brain with a trust filter — then run it for real on your own Spark with one command.

The build

How it came together

Orionfold Cortex is the Arena M10 recall layer — 1,013 lines, 8 tests — driven end-to-end on this repo's own corpus in one launch session (~4 hours) driving + measuring the Arena M10 recall layer. The launch story walks every surface, the measured recall@k, and the dogfood bug the drive surfaced.
