gstack/lib/gbrain-local-status.ts

/**
 * gbrain-local-status — classify the local gbrain engine into 6 states.
 *
 * Shared between bin/gstack-gbrain-detect (preamble probe on every skill start)
 * and bin/gstack-gbrain-sync.ts (orchestrator SKIP-when-not-ok semantics).
 * Single source of truth: same probe, same classification, same cache.
 *
 * Per the split-engine plan (D2 + D8):
 *   - Probe: `gbrain sources list --json`. Cheap (~80ms), actually hits the DB.
 *     Uses the same stderr patterns as lib/gbrain-sources.ts:66-67.
 *   - Cache: 60s TTL at ~/.gstack/.gbrain-local-status-cache.json, keyed on
 *     {home, gbrain_home, path_hash, gbrain_bin_path, gbrain_version,
 *     config_mtime, probe_timeout_ms}.
 *   - --no-cache bypass: /setup-gbrain and /sync-gbrain pass it after any
 *     state-mutating operation so the next read sees fresh status.
 *
 * No-cli  → gbrain not on PATH.
 * Missing → CLI present, config.json absent (honors GBRAIN_HOME).
 * Broken-config → config exists but `gbrain sources list` fails with config parse error
 *                 (or any non-recognized error — defensive default per codex #8).
 * Broken-db → config exists, DB unreachable per stderr classification.
 * Engine-locked → PGLite probe hit gbrain's own connect timeout, usually
 *                 because another `gbrain serve` process owns the embedded DB.
 * Timeout → probe exceeded GSTACK_GBRAIN_PROBE_TIMEOUT_MS (default 15s) with no
 *           recognized error — engine is likely healthy but slow (e.g. a cold
 *           pooler connection, #1964). Consumers treat this as usable.
 * Thin-client → config carries gbrain's remote_mcp marker (#2051): NO local
 *           engine by design; queries go to a remote-HTTP MCP brain. Usable
 *           for brain-aware prose gates; sync stages that need a LOCAL engine
 *           (code/memory/dream) skip. Remote reachability is verified at USE
 *           time (gbrain calls degrade gracefully), never by a classifier
 *           network probe — that's the #1964 pathology.
 * Ok → DB reachable, sources list returned valid JSON.
