Oliver Kieselbach 63ea2e3cee feat(mcp): search_docs — customer documentation as a third search corpus
The MCP server could answer telemetry questions ("why did this session fail")
but not product ones ("how do I deploy the agent", "where is my data stored").
Those answers already exist in the autopilotmonitor-docs bundle; search_docs
makes them semantically searchable.

Deliberately a separate index from search_knowledge: rules and prose answer
different questions, and sharing one topK would dilute both. Registered for
every role — published documentation carries no tenant data — and skipped
entirely when no corpus was baked in, so a doc-less build advertises no
broken tool.

Corpus handling:
- Chunked at h2/h3 and <details>/<summary>, each chunk prefixed with a
  "Page > Section > Subsection" breadcrumb so a mid-page hit is self-describing.
- Newlines are normalized before any parsing. This is a correctness
  precondition, not cosmetics: the bundle ships CRLF and JS `.` does not match
  \r, so /^(#{2,3})\s+(.*)$/ matched zero headings — silently, degrading every
  page to unlabelled paragraph splits.
- Two size exceptions: tables are never split (a split table leaves `| --- |`
  rows with no header), and unbroken changelog lists split at line level (left
  whole, their tails fall outside the model window and become unsearchable).
- Short sections are kept — a one-line answer is often the best hit, and the
  breadcrumb supplies the context a short body lacks.

Build and delivery:
- Docs are embedded at image build time into an optional third
  PrecomputedSection. Optional so a checkout without the docs repo does not
  invalidate the rules and event-type vectors; the reverse (server has docs,
  file does not) is staleness and is rejected.
- The deploy workflow checks the public docs repo into the build context and
  passes its SHA as DOCS_COMMIT, which /health reports alongside the chunk
  count — editing the docs does not update a running server, so staleness is
  made checkable rather than memorable.
- Embeddings are rounded to 6 decimals on serialize: 55% smaller index (2.63
  vs 5.88 MB) for a ~1e-5 norm error against a 1e-3 tolerance. indexPrecomputed
  now asserts unit norm, since the hydrate path never checked it.

Infra: the Bicep template was two changes behind the live deployment (EU
cutover and ACR hardening, both applied directly in Azure). Reconciled against
the running resources — managed-identity image pull replaces the admin
credentials and the acr-password secret — and infra/ is no longer gitignored so
it stops drifting. Container raised to 0.5 vCPU / 1.0 GiB for the cold-start
query-embedder load. The template does not model the mcp.autopilotmonitor.com
custom domain, so a full deployment would remove it; the header warns about it.

Verified: 428 tests pass; 45 pages produce 324 chunks; sample queries hit the
right page top-1/2; all 8 derived URLs return 200 live; the precompute output
is accepted by the boot validator and a mutated corpus is rejected.

  • Creation: Added mcp/docs-corpus.md (new mcp/ section) — the MCP server gains search_docs, a third semantic corpus built from the published customer documentation repository (autopilotmonitor-docs, checked out into the Docker build context by the deploy workflow). Documents the h2/h3 + <details> chunking with breadcrumb prefixes, the two deliberate size exceptions (tables never split, unbroken changelog lists split at line level), the CRLF precondition (. does not match \r in JS — headings silently stop matching, which produced 286 wrong-but-plausible chunks before it was found), the optional docs section in search-index.json and its validation asymmetry, embedding rounding to 6 decimals, and the cross-repo coupling: a docs edit reaches clients only after an MCP redeploy, made checkable via DOCS_COMMIT on /health. Container resources raised to 0.5 vCPU / 1.0 GiB for the cold-start query-embedder load.

2026-07-20

  • Update: Extended rules/gather-rule-phase-scoping.md with the phase_exit trigger — the closing bookend to phase_change, for one-shot collection when a phase is LEFT (e.g. "state at the end of Account Setup"). Documents the evaluation-before-phase-advance rule (triggerPhase match and scope gate see the phase being left), firing into Failed, the disjoint exit: dedup key space, and why no ConfigVersion bump is needed (no new field — old agents simply never fire the rule).

  • Update: Reworked agent/mdm-reboot-coalescing.md after the first real enrollment (session b2e890c1): 2800 records are now aggregated per burst into ONE neutral Info event (rebootUris[]/uriCount/firstRebootUri; watermark persisted at flush so a pre-emit reboot kill loses nothing); the raw event no longer claims a reboot — ANALYZE-ESP-005 is gated on an actually-observed system_reboot_detected. Removed the Shell-Core esp_reboot_coalescing event entirely: the "RebootCoalescing" token appears in the routine SubcategoryProcessing_Started bootstrap marker on every enrollment (false positive by construction). Verified 2800 description shape recorded.

  • Creation: Added agent/mdm-reboot-coalescing.md — the agent now attributes the "unexpected mid-ESP reboot + second sign-in" pattern (PMPC research) to the device-assigned policy URIs that forced it: new MdmRebootPolicyTracker (DM-Enterprise EventID 2800, per-URI mdm_policy_reboot_required events, cross-restart RecordId watermark), a RebootCoalescing branch in ShellCoreTracker (esp_reboot_coalescing, backfill-emitting by design), and the ANALYZE-ESP-005 advisory (reassign device → user groups). ConfigVersion 35; event types deliberately distinct from system_reboot_detected so RebootCount stays uninflated.

  • Creation: Added backend/business-timestamps.md (new backend/ section) — the 2026-07-18 migration reset every row's system Timestamp, exposing that AuditLogs/OpsEvents/Events had (unknowingly) displayed and filtered on it all along; documents the OccurredUtc column, the RowKey decoders and RowKey-range date/retention clauses in BusinessTimestamp, the GUID-guard trap, the audit/ops backfill endpoint, and the "system Timestamp is never authoritative" migration rule.

  • Creation: Added rules/gather-rule-phase-scoping.md (new rules/ section) — gather rules gain activePhases (run only during listed phases), activeFromPhase (sticky latch from a phase onwards, never via Failed) and emitMode: "on_change" (canonical-hash result dedup with suppressedPolls observability), ConfigVersion 34. Includes the prerequisite backend fix: the custom-rule toggle PUT no longer wipes the stored rule definition (partial-merge in GatherRuleService.UpdateRuleAsync).

2026-07-18

  • Creation: Added agent/endpoint-migration.md — config-channel agent re-home (MigrateToApiBaseUrl on GET agent/config, ConfigVersion 33): backend or per-tenant API-URL moves without DNS indirection (impossible due to mTLS/Flex-TLS). Live-fetch-only with cache strip, AgentEndpointMigrationRules allowlist validated on both sides, one hop, kill-switch wins. Built as the lesson from the 2026-07-18 WEU→GWC cutover, which hard-cut all in-flight agents.

2026-07-17

  • Creation: Added agent/build-counter-blob.md — agent build numbers now come from a shared public counter blob (buildcounter-v{N}.txt, reserve-before-build with ETag-CAS) so local build.ps1 and CI build-agent.yml builds can never mint the same number. Documents the CI parity fixes (SummaryDialog.exe.config in the ZIP, EXE-vs-manifest version check, hash-oracle update gated on stable cutover) and the Sigstore provenance attestation on CI-built ZIPs.

2026-07-16

  • Creation: Added agent/autopilot-ztd-diagnostics.md — reference for Windows' own ZTD diagnostic surfaces (ModernDeployment Autopilot event IDs incl. 807/809/815/908, the Diagnostics\Autopilot registry key, deployment-service endpoints, known-issue error-code map with KB fixes). Backs the agent's ZtdEvidence collector (ztdVerdict on autopilot_profile_missing) and the backend known-issue rules; sources carry a re-check RSS feed.

2026-07-13

  • Removal: Moved customer-graph-add-on-permissions.md out of this contributor bundle into the customer documentation repository (reference/optional-graph-permissions.md). It was customer-facing product content and did not belong in the tech-docs bundle; removed the entry from index.md.

  • Creation: Added agent/hello-wizard-unskip.md — session 772fe502 fix: the HelloWizardStarted decision signal (prevention veto + un-skip cure for the policy-disabled Hello shortcut) and the HelloTracker confirmation second read against flip-flopping WHfB CSP values.

2026-07-11

  • Creation: Added the agent/ section — three concept documents on the V2 agent: agent/overview.md (runtime, collectors, telemetry pipeline), agent/decision-engine.md (DecisionCore reducer, signals, A/B/C completion arms, invariants), agent/logs-and-persistence.md (persisted artifacts, signal log vs spool, recovery/replay flow) plus agent/index.md.

  • Creation: Converted docs/ into an OKF v0.1 knowledge bundle — added YAML frontmatter to architecture.md, mcp-oauth-flow.md, and customer-graph-add-on-permissions.md; created index.md and this log.
