Headline

The desktop app actually renders its UI now — and it can explain its memory.

Fixed (the big one)

  • The Vite entry (src-tauri/index.html) was a static landing page with no #root/main.tsx, so the React UI (knowledge galaxy, panels) never mounted — the app only ever showed a landing page. Restored a proper Vite React shell (the old page is preserved as landing.html). The build now bundles the full app (3 → 2,133 modules).

New: explainable recall

  • Recall panel (left sidebar): ask your memory a question and get ranked hits, each with a "retrieved because…" breakdown — click a hit to see the per-signal bars.
  • Retrieval blends interpretable signals: similarity · recency · importance · reinforcement · task-relevance, each with a human-readable reason.
  • Searches across everything MemoryWhale remembers: notes, terminal command runs, and agent conversation turns (new agent_turns table).
  • New mw-memory crate — a pluggable MemoryEngine: local-first semantic embeddings via Ollama (lexical fallback offline), plus a MemPalace adapter seam.

New: direction

  • VISION.md — MemoryWhale as an inspectable memory OS (capture → filter → consolidate → link → retrieve → explain → forget).

Notes

  • Similarity is lexical by default; install Ollama (ollama pull nomic-embed-text) for semantic recall.
  • agent_turns is populated by external writers (e.g. Delphin / hooks); it may be empty on a fresh install.

Verified

cargo check ✓ · frontend tsc && vite build ✓ · mw-memory unit tests 10/10 ✓ · recall smoke-tested against a real database (correct top hit with reasons).
