CueNexa Loop — Shipathon Project Update
Current Status
CueNexa Loop is now in HOLD-CONTEST-STABLE mode.
The core product work, live Bee validation, Electron integration reference, developer documentation, and contest submission are complete.
The project is intentionally stable while the contest entry is active.
No new feature development is currently authorized.
What Has Been Completed
Core CueNexa Loop
- Phase 0 — Foundation and Bee integration: CLOSED
- Phase 1A — Deterministic LoopItem detection: CLOSED
- Phase 1B — Cross-conversation correlation: CLOSED
- Phase 2 — Local persistent follow-through: CLOSED
- Phase 3 — Review, attention, user state, and notifications: CLOSED
- Phase 4 — Ambient realtime awareness: CLOSED
- Phase 4 live Bee acceptance: PASSED
The core architecture remains:
Bee conversations
↓
Processed Bee history
↓
Deterministic detection
↓
Cross-conversation correlation
↓
Local persistent LoopThread
↓
Review / follow-through workflow
Realtime remains an optional acceleration layer:
Bee realtime
↓
ProvisionalAwareness
↓
PROVISIONAL UI
↓
memory only
↓
never directly persisted
Processed Bee history remains the only authority for persistent Loop state.
Electron Local Integration Reference
CueNexa Loop now includes a complete, executable Electron Local Integration Reference in the public repository:
examples/electron-local-reference/
This is working example code showing developers how CueNexa Loop can be embedded into a local desktop application while preserving its privacy, persistence, and architecture rules.
The Electron reference was completed through the P4-R1 milestone:
- P4-R1A — Authoritative historical integration: MERGED
- P4-R1B — Provisional realtime awareness: MERGED
- P4-R1C — Developer documentation and acceptance polish: MERGED
- P4-R1 overall: CLOSED
P4-R1A — Authoritative Historical Integration
The Electron Main Process demonstrates the complete authoritative CueNexa processing pipeline:
Bee processed history
↓
BeeAdapterClient.ensureAuthenticated()
↓
fetchCompleteDetectionSnapshot()
↓
detectLoopItems()
↓
correlateLoopItems()
↓
LoopStore.reconcile()
↓
buildReviewModel()
↓
host-owned sanitized DTO
↓
Electron IPC
↓
Electron Renderer
The reference application demonstrates:
- Bee authentication checking
- processed-history synchronization
- deterministic LoopItem detection
- cross-conversation correlation
- persistent local LoopThread reconciliation
- actionable review-model generation
- sanitized Electron IPC
- read-only structural renderer output
- partial/degraded snapshot handling
- restart continuity
- timezone-aware deadline processing
Processed Bee history remains the only persistence authority.
P4-R1B — Provisional Realtime Awareness
The same Electron reference also demonstrates optional Bee realtime awareness:
Bee realtime
↓
BeeAdapterClient.subscribeRealtime()
↓
Electron Main Process
↓
ProvisionalAwareness
↓
sanitized provisional DTO
↓
Electron IPC
↓
PROVISIONAL Renderer UI
↓
never directly persisted
The realtime implementation includes:
- realtime Start
- realtime Stop
- Start / Stop / Start lifecycle
- connection health states
- memory-only provisional signals
- provisional TTL expiration
- stream disconnect isolation
- bounded reconnect behavior
- sanitized warning handling
- explicit separation between provisional and authoritative state
Realtime events never directly create, modify, resolve, reopen, or delete persistent LoopThread records.
Authoritative vs Provisional State
CueNexa Loop deliberately maintains two separate tracks.
Authoritative
Processed Bee history
→ deterministic detection
→ deterministic correlation
→ LoopStore
→ persistent LoopThread
Provisional
Bee realtime
→ ProvisionalAwareness
→ temporary PROVISIONAL UI
→ memory only
The two tracks are never treated as interchangeable.
Realtime accelerates awareness.
Processed history determines durable state.
Working Example Application
The Electron example is not only reference documentation.
It is an actual runnable application.
It includes:
- Bee authentication and connectivity checks
- authoritative Sync
- local SQLite persistence
- review sections
- optional realtime monitoring
- Start / Stop controls
- PROVISIONAL awareness display
- partial-state warnings
- sanitized errors
- restart-safe persistence
- isolated realtime lifecycle
- hardened Electron renderer boundary
Review Interface
The authoritative review UI separates persistent LoopThreads into:
- Due Now
- Needs Attention
- Waiting
- Snoozed
- Recently Resolved
Realtime observations appear in a completely separate:
PROVISIONAL
section.
They are never mixed directly into authoritative persistent review sections.
Running the Example
Prerequisites
- Node.js 22 or newer
- npm
- Bee desktop application
- Bee Developer Mode enabled
- official
@beeai/cli - authenticated Bee CLI session
Verify Bee access:
bee status
Install
From the CueNexa Loop repository root:
npm ci
Build
npm run build
Run the Electron Example
npm start --workspace @cuenexa-loop/electron-local-reference
Run Example Tests
npx vitest run examples/electron-local-reference
Local Storage
The Electron Main Process owns LoopStore.
The Electron reference uses its own application-specific SQLite database under Electron userData.
Typical logical filename:
cuenexa-loop-electron-reference.sqlite
This is intentionally separate from the CueNexa CLI database:
~/.cuenexa-loop/cuenexa-loop.sqlite
For development and disposable acceptance testing, the Electron database can be overridden:
export CUENEXA_LOOP_ELECTRON_DB_PATH="/tmp/cuenexa-loop-electron-reference.sqlite"
npm start --workspace @cuenexa-loop/electron-local-reference
This allowed live acceptance to verify the reference without modifying the normal CLI database.
Timezone Handling
The Electron host resolves timezone using the same documented hierarchy:
- valid
LOOP_TIMEZONEoverride - Bee account timezone
- system timezone
CueNexa does not silently assume UTC.
Electron IPC Boundary
The application uses a narrow, explicit IPC surface.
Authoritative channels include:
cuenexa:get-status
cuenexa:sync
cuenexa:get-review
Realtime support adds only:
cuenexa:start-realtime
cuenexa:stop-realtime
cuenexa:get-provisional
cuenexa:provisional-updated
There is no generic dispatcher.
The renderer does not receive direct Bee or SQLite access.
Electron Security Model
The reference demonstrates a hardened Electron configuration:
contextIsolation: true
nodeIntegration: false
sandbox: true
webSecurity: true
It also avoids:
webviewTag- arbitrary navigation
- arbitrary window creation
- remote fonts
- CDN dependencies
- telemetry
- analytics
- external LLM calls
The renderer receives only sanitized derived DTOs.
It does not receive:
- Bee client objects
- SQLite handles
- filesystem access
- raw Bee payloads
- transcripts
- utterance text
- evidence text
- summaries
- authentication material
- realtime UUIDs
- speaker identifiers
- precise location
Restart Behavior
The Electron reference deliberately separates persistent and memory-only state.
After application restart:
Realtime health → off
Provisional signals → empty
Persistent SQLite state → retained
Renderer review → empty until next authoritative Sync
The empty-until-Sync renderer behavior is intentional in this reference implementation.
A fresh authoritative Sync reconstructs the current review state.
Failure Isolation
The reference demonstrates that realtime failure must never compromise the authoritative application path.
Examples:
| Situation | Expected Behavior |
|---|---|
| Bee CLI unavailable | Sanitized unavailable state |
| Bee unauthenticated | User is instructed to restore Bee authentication |
| Processed history delayed | Sync remains authoritative; retry after Bee processing |
| Snapshot partial | Mark partial; never infer resolution |
| Realtime disconnected | Authoritative review remains operational |
| Unsupported realtime event | Safely ignored / sanitized warning |
| No provisional signal | Historical Sync remains authoritative |
| App restarted | Provisional state cleared; persistent DB retained |
Live Bee Acceptance
The Electron reference was tested against a real authenticated Bee environment.
P4-R1A Live Acceptance
PASS
Verified:
- Electron app launch
- Bee authentication
- authoritative Sync
- complete processed-history snapshot
- review-model rendering
- repeat Sync without duplicates
- isolated disposable SQLite database
- restart continuity
- historical operation without realtime
Observed authoritative review:
Due Now: 1
Needs Attention: 4
Waiting: 0
Snoozed: 0
Recently Resolved: 0
Five structural Loop cards were observed.
Private Loop titles were not recorded.
P4-R1B Live Acceptance
PASS
A real human Bee utterance was performed while realtime was active.
The actual spoken content was intentionally not recorded in repository evidence.
Observed provisional results:
Realtime health: active
Provisional signals: 2
Structural signal types observed:
possible_commitment — strong
possible_deadline — tentative
They appeared only in the separate PROVISIONAL UI.
Before authoritative Sync:
Persistent threads before realtime: 5
Persistent events before realtime: 5
Persistent threads after realtime: 5
Persistent events after realtime: 5
This demonstrated that real Bee realtime activity produced:
ZERO persistent LoopThread changes
ZERO persistent history changes
After application restart:
Persistent threads: 5
Persistent events: 5
Provisional signals: 0
Realtime health: off
The live test confirmed that realtime awareness is truly memory-only.

Automated Validation
Current verified engineering baseline:
56 test files passing
465 tests passing
TypeScript typecheck PASS
Build PASS
npm audit: 0 vulnerabilities
Automated tests use synthetic fixtures only.
Real Bee personal data is not used in CI.
Privacy and Security
CueNexa Loop continues to follow a strict local-first architecture.
Key safeguards include:
- no raw Bee transcripts persisted
- no realtime conversation UUIDs persisted
- no raw utterances persisted
- no evidence text persisted
- no precise location persisted
- no authentication credentials persisted
- no external LLM required
- no cloud API required
- no telemetry
- no analytics
- no Bee writeback
- no background network daemon
- no heuristic realtime-to-history identity guessing
- no resolution inferred from disappearance
- synthetic fixtures only in automated testing
Realtime remains memory-only.
Processed Bee history remains the only persistence authority.
Identity Safety
Bee realtime conversation UUIDs and processed-history conversation IDs are separate namespaces.
CueNexa does not guess mappings using:
- timestamps
- titles
- transcript similarity
- speaker similarity
- sequence order
- string matching
A mapping is only accepted when Bee explicitly provides both identifiers within a supported event.
Developer Documentation
The Electron example now includes documentation covering:
- prerequisites
- installation
- build instructions
- launch instructions
- authoritative Sync
- realtime Start / Stop
- architecture diagrams
- storage paths
- disposable databases
- timezone behavior
- IPC channels
- Electron security
- restart behavior
- failure isolation
- privacy rules
- troubleshooting
- live acceptance evidence
- known limitations
This makes the project both:
- a working follow-through engine; and
- an executable integration reference for developers.
Known Limitations
Bee Processing Delay
Processed Bee history may not become immediately available after recording.
During live testing, manual:
Process now
may sometimes be useful before running authoritative Sync.
Realtime Is Best-Effort
Realtime is treated as provisional and potentially lossy.
Historical Sync remains the repair and persistence authority.
Restart Requires Sync
The Electron renderer does not rebuild its current review snapshot directly from SQLite at startup.
After restart, run authoritative Sync to rebuild the displayed review.
Spoken Time Fidelity
A previously observed non-blocking case showed Bee processed text shortening a spoken phrase such as:
September 23 at 3 PM
into approximately:
September 23 at 3 p.
This affected downstream time-of-day parsing.
The issue remains documented as a non-blocking backlog item.
It is not currently authorized development work while the project is in contest hold mode.
