Short log of decisions and tradeoffs. Append newest entries at the top.

2026-05-15 — Initial implementation

  • License: MIT for maximum adoption; AGPL noted in SECURITY docs as alternative for forks that need copyleft.
  • Layout: src/patternloop setuptools package; data under ~/.patternloop or PATTERNLOOP_HOME.
  • LoopSpec: YAML on disk; compiler uses local Ollama (or mock) to draft turns from traces; user can edit before save.
  • Memory: SQLite + JSON episodes for simplicity (Chroma optional later); no cloud vector DB in core.
  • UI: Gradio bound to 127.0.0.1 by default.
  • Packaging: bundled LoopSpecs ship as package data; list via Traversable.iterdir(), copy one file at a time with as_file() (avoid returning a temp path that is deleted after the context manager exits).
  • CLI: Gradio imports only inside patternloop ui so lightweight commands stay fast.
