Sam Rolfe f9dc574172 Phase 4: corpus and retrieval — chunks, Qdrant, FTS5, freshness audit
Satisfies docs/phase-4-corpus.md. content/ stays the single source of truth:
one pass over it writes both indexes, so the static pages and the retrieval
corpus cannot drift.

- corpus/: stdlib-only pipeline. validate -> chunk -> enrich -> embed -> upsert.
  Chunking is block-based, so a boundary cannot fall inside a fenced block, a
  table or front-matter (verified structurally, not by inspection).
- Deterministic ids: sha256(source_path + chunk_index + content_hash), rendered
  as a UUID. Re-running updates points; re-chunking deletes the old ones by
  source filter, so duplicates and orphans are both impossible.
- Incremental by content hash against a SQLite manifest. A provider, dimension
  or chunker change is refused instead of mixed: it needs a rebuild.
- Payloads per section 4.2 plus provenance, validated before any vector is
  written; a missing field fails the run and names the document and chunk.
- SQLite FTS5 over chunks (the keyword half of hybrid retrieval, decision D10)
  with area/confidence filters and a `terms` column so front-matter tech and
  tags are findable.
- Freshness audit: stale documents, due soon, index drift, contract drift;
  optional Apprise alert; exit code for Prefect.
- Embeddings behind one interface: omniroute (OpenAI-compatible, retries, key
  from the environment only) and local-hashing (offline placeholder). The
  provider decision is still Sam's; the pipeline does not depend on it.
- deploy/qdrant.yml: mem_limit = memswap_limit = 400m, loopback only.
- docs/phase-4-notes.md: operator manual, DoD evidence, measured memory.
- 76 unit tests, no container and no network.

Measured, Qdrant 1.20.0 under a 400 m cap at 1024 dimensions: 500 / 5,000 /
20,000 chunks settle at 128 / 138 / 151 MiB, peaking at 149 / 305 / 292 MiB
during ingest. Qdrant's default settings are OOM-killed between 5,000 and
20,000, so the collection is created with HNSW and payloads on disk; recorded in
reference/stack.md with the ceiling and the escalation order.

Note: the `make corpus*` targets were swept into the Phase 3 deploy commit
24590cc by concurrent work in this tree; the Makefile content is correct, and
this commit contains the pipeline they call.

"""Qdrant REST client — standard library only.
No `qdrant-client` dependency: the four calls this pipeline needs are HTTP
requests, and AGENTS.md §4.1 freezes the stack. `_request` is the single
transport hook, which is what the tests replace to run the whole pipeline
without a container.
Qdrant is bound to `127.0.0.1:6333` on the runtime host (`.13`) and is never
publicly reachable; Caddy is the only public listener.

# settings are OOM-killed at the cap between 5,000 and 20,000 chunks of 1024
# dimensions. Keeping the HNSW graph and the payloads on disk, and using a
# smaller graph (m=8, ef_construct=64), fits the cap because the kernel can
# reclaim those page-cache pages instead of killing the process. Vectors stay in
# RAM because they are the part search reads on every query.
#
# The trade is build time and a little search latency; the corpus is ~50 chunks
# today and the public site has no query burst. See docs/phase-4-notes.md §7.
