Owner

Parent: #11
Consumes existing slice: #1

Goal

Establish the reusable library/runtime foundation that every other Symbolic Memory subsystem depends on.

Own:

SWI pack/module layout and stable public facade;
store open/close/lifecycle;
backend-neutral storage SPI and transaction contract;
exact immutable source-memory records;
namespace/project/global/session identity;
principals/capabilities/read-write authority;
trust/provenance metadata;
append-only audit events;
deterministic IDs/fingerprints and structured errors;
test/dev/Nix ergonomics.

Do not own semantic compilation, reasoning, embeddings, federation, or MCP semantics.

Hard invariants

path != project identity
knowing id != read authority
source trust != semantic interpretation trust
remember success != semantic projection success
registered backend != authority
library API != transport API

#1 remains the first vertical implementation slice and should be reconciled into this epic rather than duplicated.

Acceptance

A fresh checkout can open a store, remember/get exact source under namespace/authority policy, restart, retrieve the same bytes/metadata/audit lineage, and run the same library calls without MCP or a model provider.
