ahmed mohammedandClaude Opus 4.7 8b42a0931c docs: karpathy-pattern wiki built from the spec, plan, design contract and decisions ledger
kb/ is its own wiki root: 34 pages across 7 categories, index.md catalog, log.md, AGENTS.md schema layer, and raw/ holding copies of README, the spec, the 13-task plan, the design master and the SDD ledger.

Every page cross-references 3 to 6 others and all 107 wikilinks resolve except two [["list"]] artefacts inside JSON snippets in the copied plan.

Kept separate from the repository root on purpose: its generated graph lands in kb/.ua/ instead of overwriting the code graph.

Decision: output token ceiling

Once every option had to carry runnable T-SQL, the candidate JSON outgrew the old 2 048-token budget. The user waited 38 seconds and got "The analyst model returned malformed JSON" — a truncated response has no closing brace.

Both calls default to 4 096 now, and the failure message names the character count and tells the user which extra parameter raises the ceiling, because cfg.extra is spread after max_tokens.

The general rule recorded here: when a prompt asks a model for more content, check the budget before blaming the model's judgement.
