## [Unreleased]
+## [2.7.0] - 2026-08-02
+
+Provenance-native memory: security becomes a property of the memory itself, not just a gate in
+front of it. Signed on write **and verified on read**, every memory carries an immutable origin
+record, and the same trust signals that keep retrieval safe also make it better. Also ships the
+authorization hardening that had been sitting unreleased since v2.6.1.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Provenance as a first-class, HMAC-signed record (W2a).** New `memory_provenance` table (1:1
+ with each memory, migration 0011) captures the origin channel and kind (the C1–C4 mapping), the
+ producing agent and API key, the source run/interaction/trajectory, the derivation depth, the
+ taint set (trust label + the detections that fired), and the full content-security verdict plus a
+ `policy_version` that admitted it. Written once through one choke point (`MemoryRepository.add`)
+ and never mutated — promotions are recorded as events (`SCOPE_CHANGED` / `TRUST_CHANGED` /
+ `PROMOTED` / `DEDUPLICATED`). New `GET /memories/{id}/provenance` returns the record, its HMAC
+ verification status, and promotion history; `policy_version` is surfaced by `GET /security/config`.
+- **Verify integrity on read (W2b).** Signing on write is now matched by verification on read:
+ every retrieval path (`query`, `hybrid_query`, `GET /memories/{id}`, handoff, typed
+ timeline/entity, the ACE playbook, and the context bundle) recomputes the HMAC. `INTEGRITY_READ_MODE`
+ (`off` / `warn` / `drop`, default **`drop`**) excludes a tamper-detected row before it reaches a
+ prompt and emits an `INTEGRITY_FAILED` event (on a dedicated write session, so it is committed
+ even on the replica-safe read routes). Unsigned/legacy rows are kept until
+ `INTEGRITY_REQUIRE_SIGNED=true`, so `drop` is safe to run before the backfill.
+- **Trust-weighted retrieval ranking (W2c).** With `ENABLE_TRUST_WEIGHTED_RANKING=true`, retrieval
+ fuses vector similarity with content trust, effectiveness votes, temporal decay, and provenance
+ depth (`RANKING_W_*`, validated to sum to 1.0) instead of ordering by distance alone — closing the
+ ACE loop so a helpful vote actually raises a memory next time, with the same signal ranking a
+ low-trust or poisoned write down. Off by default; unproven signals use neutral priors so the
+ un-voted corpus is never buried. `relevance_score` now reflects the fused score.
+- **v2 integrity hash + backfill.** The signature now covers `scope` and `trust_level` (v1 covered
+ only content, so a direct DB scope-flip verified clean), is delimited and domain-separated, and is
+ stored with a `v2:` prefix; `verify_integrity` still accepts v1 for legacy rows. `add_batch` now
+ signs (it never did), consolidation re-signs the merged keeper, and PATCH re-signs on a trust
+ relabel. `scripts/backfill_integrity.py` upgrades unsigned/v1 rows (idempotent, `--dry-run`,
+ `--project-id`). Migration 0010 widens `integrity_hash`.
+
### Security
+- **The ACE routes were an unguarded surface.** The W1 sweeps keyed on `MemoryRepository`, so the
+ entire `ACERepository` path was invisible: `POST /memories/ace/reflection` wrote unscanned,
+ unsigned memories straight into `global` scope with a body-supplied `agent_id`, and
+ `/ace/playbook`, `/ace/playbook/agent`, `/ace/vote`, `/ace/curate`, `/ace/consolidate` had the
+ same class of hole (spoofed identity / unauthorized reads / an unauthenticated vote-poisoning
+ channel). All now run the full gate set. The authorization sweeps are re-keyed on memory
+ creation/access (covering `ACERepository`), and a new test pins the files allowed to construct
+ `Memory(...)` directly, so this recurrence fails CI on the day it is reintroduced.
+- **Injection rejected at global scope (W3.2).** `CONTENT_POLICY_INJECTION_GLOBAL_SCOPE` (default
+ `reject`) escalates a flagged injection to a hard reject for writes entering `global` scope —
+ readable by every agent in the project — even when the base injection policy only flags.
+- **Consolidation cannot launder tampering.** `consolidate_pair` verifies both inputs and refuses a
+ mismatched pair, so a database-tampered keeper can no longer be re-signed into a valid HMAC.
+- **Fixed** a latent crash: `POST /memories/ace/playbook` omitted a required argument when logging
+ its query event and would 500 on every call.
+
+### From the previously-unreleased authorization work (W1)
+
- **`POST /memories/ace/delta` was an unguarded write path.** The first authorization pass covered
`memories.py` and `typed_memory.py`; this route was missed. Its `add` branch wrote `op.content`
straight to `MemoryRepository.add` with **no content-security scan, no `authorize_write`, and an

### How It Works
-Canonical message format: `{project_id}:{agent_id}:{content}`
+Memories are signed with the **v2** hash format, stored with a `v2:` prefix. The signed message
+is domain-separated and delimited with the ASCII unit separator (`\x1f`):
+
+```
+aegis-mem-v2 ␟ {project_id} ␟ {agent_id} ␟ {scope} ␟ {trust_level} ␟ {content}
+```
+
+Covering `scope` and `trust_level` (not just content) means a direct database edit that flips a
+memory from `agent-private` to `global`, or relabels its trust, now breaks the hash — the v1 format
+(`{project_id}:{agent_id}:{content}`) could not detect those. The delimiter prevents one field's
+contents from masquerading as the next, and the `aegis-mem-v2` domain prefix keeps a memory MAC
+from being replayed as any other Aegis MAC.
The HMAC is computed using `AEGIS_INTEGRITY_KEY` (falls back to `AEGIS_API_KEY`).
+**Legacy rows.** Memories written before v2 (and Context Hub prompts/skills/subagents) carry the
+bare-hex v1 hash; `verify_integrity` recognizes both formats, so nothing breaks during migration.
+Upgrade existing rows to v2 with the backfill script — required before turning on
+`INTEGRITY_REQUIRE_SIGNED` (see the verify-on-read guide):
+
+```bash
+python scripts/backfill_integrity.py --dry-run # report counts
+python scripts/backfill_integrity.py # sign unsigned rows, upgrade v1 -> v2
+```
+
+The script is idempotent and batched; `--project-id` scopes it to one project.
+
### Verification
```bash
@@ -102,6 +132,81 @@ POST /security/verify/{memory_id}
Returns whether the stored hash matches the recomputed hash. Legacy rows without hashes return `has_hash: false`.
+### Verify on read
+
+Signing on write only helps if the hash is checked on the way back out. Every retrieval path —
+`/memories/query`, `/memories/hybrid_query`, `GET /memories/{id}`, `/memories/handoff`, the typed
+timeline/entity reads, and the context bundle — recomputes the HMAC and acts on the result
+according to `INTEGRITY_READ_MODE`:
+
+| Mode | Mismatched hash (tampered) | Unsigned / legacy row |
+|------|----------------------------|-----------------------|
+| `off` | returned | returned |
+| `warn` | returned, `integrity_verified: false`, event emitted | returned, `integrity_verified: false` |
+| `drop` (default) | **excluded**, `INTEGRITY_FAILED` event emitted | returned (unless `INTEGRITY_REQUIRE_SIGNED=true`) |
+
+A **mismatch** is an active tamper signal — a row whose content, scope, or trust was edited out
+from under its signature — so `drop` excludes it and it never reaches a prompt. An **unsigned** row
+is merely un-upgraded, so it is kept until you opt in with `INTEGRITY_REQUIRE_SIGNED=true`. That
+split makes `drop` safe to run before the backfill; the hardened end state, after
+`scripts/backfill_integrity.py` has signed the corpus, is `INTEGRITY_READ_MODE=drop` +
+`INTEGRITY_REQUIRE_SIGNED=true`.
+
+Drops are recorded as `INTEGRITY_FAILED` in the security audit log (`GET /security/audit`),
+including on the replica-safe read routes — the event is committed on a dedicated write session.
+
+`POST /memories/export` is the deliberate exception: it annotates each row with an
+`integrity_status` field and never drops, because a backup should show which rows are tampered,
+not silently omit them.
+
+## Provenance
+
+Every memory carries an immutable, HMAC-signed **provenance record** (`memory_provenance`, 1:1 with
+the memory) written in the same transaction as the memory itself. It captures where the memory came
+from — origin channel and kind, the producing agent and API key, the source run/interaction, and
+its depth in a derivation chain — and, crucially, *how it was admitted*: the full content-security
+verdict, the taint set (trust label + the detections that fired), and a `policy_version` hash over
+the policy configuration and scanner-rules version in effect at the time.
+
+The record is signed with a domain-separated HMAC (distinct from the content signature, so one can
+never be replayed as the other) and is **never mutated**. Promotions — a scope or trust relabel —
+are recorded as `SCOPE_CHANGED` / `TRUST_CHANGED` events in the audit log rather than by editing the
+record, so the origin is a fixed fact and the history is an append-only trail.
+
+Every write channel populates it through one choke point (`MemoryRepository.add`); a source-derived
+test fails CI if a new write path forgets to. A deduplicated write is recorded as a `DEDUPLICATED`
+event so a second, differently-originated write of the same content stays auditable while the first
+write's provenance stands.
+
+```bash
+# Inspect a memory's origin, HMAC status, and promotion history
+GET /memories/{memory_id}/provenance
+```
+
+The active `policy_version` is also surfaced by `GET /security/config`.
+
+## Trust-weighted retrieval
+
+The same signals that make memory *safer* also make retrieval *better*. With
+`ENABLE_TRUST_WEIGHTED_RANKING=true`, retrieval stops ordering purely by vector similarity and
+fuses it with the memory's **content** trust level, its effectiveness votes, temporal decay, and
+its provenance depth:
+
+```
+score = 0.60·similarity + 0.15·trust + 0.10·effectiveness + 0.10·decay + 0.05·provenance

+(weights are configurable via `RANKING_W_*` and validated to sum to 1.0 at startup). This is the
+control that closes the ACE loop: a memory voted helpful rises, a low-trust or deeply-derived one
+sinks, and a poisoned write that slipped past screening is ranked *below* vouched content rather
+than competing with it on raw similarity alone.
+
+Unproven signals use neutral priors — an unvoted memory or one with no provenance record is treated
+as *neutral* (0.5), never *bad* — so enabling the feature never buries the un-voted corpus. This is
+distinct from `ENABLE_TRUST_LEVELS`, which governs principal-trust *authorization*; ranking is
+advisory and weighs *content* trust. `score` in the API stays cosine similarity; the fused value is
+surfaced as `relevance_score`.

+"""Backfill v2 integrity hashes over existing memories.
+
+Verify-on-read (INTEGRITY_READ_MODE) can only drop *mismatched* rows safely because unsigned
+and legacy-v1 rows still exist from before v2 signing. This script closes that gap so a
+deployment can move to the hardened posture (drop + INTEGRITY_REQUIRE_SIGNED=true):
+
+ - unsigned rows (integrity_hash IS NULL) -> sign with v2
+ - legacy v1 rows (bare hex, no "v2:") -> re-sign with v2 (which also covers scope +
+ trust_level, closing the DB-scope-flip gap)
+ - v2 rows -> left untouched
+
+It is idempotent (a second run signs nothing) and batched. Run it once per deployment before
+enabling INTEGRITY_REQUIRE_SIGNED.
+
+Usage:
+ python scripts/backfill_integrity.py [--dry-run] [--project-id PROJ] [--batch-size N]
+
+Requires the same env as the server (AEGIS_API_KEY / AEGIS_INTEGRITY_KEY, DATABASE_URL). On
+Windows, asyncpg needs the selector event loop; this script sets it explicitly.

+"""Verify-on-read: keep tamper-detected memories out of result sets (W2b, SMSR Component 1).
+
+Signing on write (integrity.py) is only half the control — nothing checked the HMAC on the way
+back out, so a row edited directly in the database was returned as if trusted. This module is the
+read-side gate: it classifies each retrieved memory and, depending on ``INTEGRITY_READ_MODE``,
+drops the tampered ones and records a security event.
+
+Three read modes (``INTEGRITY_READ_MODE``):
+
+- ``off`` — return everything (pre-W2b behavior).
+- ``warn`` — annotate ``integrity_verified`` on each row and emit an event for failures, but
+ return everything. Use while validating the rollout.
+- ``drop`` — exclude a row whose stored hash MISMATCHES the recomputed one, and emit an event.
+
+Unsigned/legacy rows (no hash) are a separate axis: they are dropped only when
+``INTEGRITY_REQUIRE_SIGNED`` is on. That makes ``drop`` safe to enable before
+``scripts/backfill_integrity.py`` has signed the existing corpus — a mismatch is an active tamper
+signal, while an absent hash is merely un-upgraded. The hardened end state is
+``drop`` + ``require_signed=true`` once the backfill has run.
+
+Events are emitted on a **dedicated write session**, never the caller's: the query routes that
+need this most (``hybrid_query``, ``get_memory``, ``export``) run on ``get_read_db``, which never
+commits and may point at a read replica, so an event written on that session would be lost or fail.

+hybrid route, which runs on the non-committing read session.
