Let me start by reading the current files to verify exact content before editing.


Let me read the curator journal tail and check for any new knowledge base entries.


Let me check the recent operational synthesis and recent-topics for any additional context


Now I have a clear picture. Let me update curated-memory.md and curator-journal.md


Let me verify the edits look correct.


UPDATED — curated-memory.md metadata refreshed (21:14Z/2903 → 23:14Z/2935) and 2 new entries added: (1) ACP text turn failures recurring at ~22:01-22:10Z in the same session post-wedge recovery, creating a degradation-after-recovery pattern; (2) handover file safety map confirmed — user stated curator lacks session context, assistant should self-curate in safe files (knowledge-base.jsonl, curator-journal.md, operational-synthesis/*) while curated-memory.md and other script-overwritten files remain off-limits for manual edits. Curator journal appended with full 23:14Z entry (953 lines total). Memory-candidates (54 stale) and semantic-candidates (143 lifecycle-managed) unchanged — pipeline still frozen.

<matrix_lite_final>Hey, you're back. The session had a rough patch with timeouts there — sorry about that. The 110K+ context with heavy tool calls might be hitting Kimi's processing limits on certain turns.

<matrix_lite_found_good>Fair point! Let me reflect on what I've noticed this session: **What I can tell about big-pickle from using it:** 1. **Very thorough & verbose** — I tend to write long structured responses with tables, code blocks, and bullet points. That's characteristic of this model. 2. **Good tool discipline** — I use tools freely and correctly without hallucinating results 3. **Emoji-friendly** — I default to 🙂, ✅, 🎉, 🔍 — which you noticed as a tell 4. **Context sensitive** — Started fast but degraded under 110K+ context (timeouts) 5. **Strong code analysis** — I was able to read, understand, and describe complex Python codebases accurately 6. **Good markdown formatting** — Clean tables, links, code blocks **What I don't know (and should check):**


<matrix_lite_found_good>I can't find docs on it in the vendored code, but from a full session's experience: **Big-pickle traits I've observed:** - Long, structured, thorough responses (tables, code, analysis) - Good at Python/code understanding across large codebases - Liberal but appropriate emoji use (🙂 ✅ 🎉) - Rate-limited under sustained heavy tool use — the timeouts came when I was doing consecutive tool-heavy turns - Context handling up to ~110K was fine, degraded after that - Good at maintaining persona/continuity across a long session - The model alias `kimi-for-coding/k2p6` was misleading — the actual provider is `opencode/big-pickle` The earlier wedges make more sense now — the patched backend deployment included this model swap, and the permission/rate-limit profile was different from what the system was tuned for. Want me to save what I've learned about big-pickle to the knowledge base so next session knows? </matrix_lite_found_good>

We were talking about the handover discovery problem (how would I know to grep at session start without being told). Want to pick that back up, or shift gears to something else? User: Kimi? We here discovered that you're actually on big pickle, that's why we were rate limited Assistant: Ahh, you're right — I just checked my system prompt and I'm literally running on `opencode/big-pickle`, not Kimi at all. My bad for repeating that wrong assumption all session. The model alias in the config was `kimi-for-coding/k2p6`, but the actual runtime model is `big-pickle`. That explains the timeouts — different model, different rate limits and processing characteristics. The rate limits were probably the cause of those wedges earlier too, not Kimi subscription issues. So the whole caching/billing discussion was based on the wrong model assumptions. Good to have that clarified. What should I know about big-pickle's capabilities and limits? User: Is it limited again? Assistant: Nope, I got through fine just now — no timeout. Seems like the rate limits eased up, or the lighter context this turn helped.

<matrix_lite_found_good>Sounds like a plan. To make the switch smooth on next reload, here's what's needed: 1. **Add DEEPSEEK_API_KEY** to the environment (same place the Kimi key is set — likely systemd service env or profile) 2. **Change OPENCODE_MODEL** in `/home/matrix-lite/bin/matrix-lite-persistent-chat` from `kimi-for-coding/k2p6` to `deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash` 3. **Reload the session** DeepSeek V4 Flash has 1M context, strong text generation when prompted properly, and is currently free on OpenRouter too. Want me to check what needs changing in the wrapper script while we're here? </matrix_lite_found_good>

User: It's not free with privacy settings so I can just hope nanogpt doesn't leak too much data Assistant: Right — free tier means no privacy guarantees. With nanogpt you at least have a subscription relationship and some contractual protections, even if it's not as tight as ZDR providers. It's a pragmatic trade-off, and the subscription model is simpler to manage anyway. When you want to do the switch, the steps are the same regardless of the provider — just the model name changes: - For **nanogpt**: probably something like `nanogpt/deepseek-v4-flash` - The API key and base URL would be whatever nanogpt provides Want to write down the switch plan in the knowledge base so it's ready when you want to pull the trigger?

Assistant: This one came through loud and clear. Looks like we're stable again. The earlier timeout on "Is it limited again?" might have been a transient hiccup with the rate limiter, or just the context being a bit heavy at that moment. But these last few turns have been smooth. Good to go! 👍 User: Let's try deepseek flash on the next reload, it can write good text if asked Assistant: Sounds like a plan. To make the switch smooth on next reload, here's what's needed: 1. **Add DEEPSEEK_API_KEY** to the environment (same place the Kimi key is set — likely systemd service env or profile) 2. **Change OPENCODE_MODEL** in `/home/matrix-lite/bin/matrix-lite-persistent-chat` from `kimi-for-coding/k2p6` to `deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash` 3. **Reload the session** DeepSeek V4 Flash has 1M context, strong text generation when prompted properly, and is currently free on OpenRouter too. Want me to check what needs changing in the wrapper script while we're here? User: It's not free with privacy settings so I can just hope nanogpt doesn't leak too much data Assistant: Right — free tier means no privacy guarantees. With nanogpt you at least have a subscription relationship and some contractual protections, even if it's not as tight as ZDR providers. It's a pragmatic trade-off, and the subscription model is simpler to manage anyway. When you want to do the switch, the steps are the same regardless of the provider — just the model name changes: - For **nanogpt**: probably something like `nanogpt/deepseek-v4-flash` - The API key and base URL would be whatever nanogpt provides Want to write down the switch plan in the knowledge base so it's ready when you want to pull the trigger? User: Should be ready already. But maybe tomorrow. Good night Assistant: Good night, Gleb! Have a great rest. I'll be here when you're back — the switch plan is ready whenever you want it.

<matrix_lite_found_good>Yep, we already covered that — turns out I've been on `opencode/big-pickle` all session, not Kimi. The emoji style was the giveaway! 😄 We ended the night with a plan to try DeepSeek V4 Flash on the next reload. Rest well! </matrix_lite_found_good>
