prosolis 8aa437ec82 Phase 12 + 13: collocation coach + vocabulary garden
Phase 12 — collocation coach: a third suggestion family for gentle
"natives usually say…" hints on non-native word pairings, reusing the
existing runPass/pendingScope/rail machinery.
- llm/collocation.go (RunCollocation, 25s floor, reuses ParseCheckpoint)
  + collocationSystemPrompt/CollocationMessages (warm, Mandarin gloss,
  defers grammar/spelling to the grammar family)
- migration 0005 rebuilds the suggestions table to extend the type CHECK
  (SQLite can't ALTER a CHECK)
- collocationScope + CollocationLimit + POST /{id}/collocation
- fix: grammarScope was `type != 'voice'` and would wipe the new
  collocation flags; now `type NOT IN ('voice','collocation')`
- frontend: --color-blossom, "Make it sound natural 🌸" pill,
  collocating/runCollocation in useCheckpoint, StatusBar dot

Phase 13 — vocabulary garden: capture looked-up words and surface them
for gentle spaced repetition.
- new internal/vocab package: migration 0006 (vocab_words, SM-2-lite
  columns, doc_id ON DELETE SET NULL, UNIQUE(user_id,word)),
  scheduler.go (Leitner ladder 1/3/7/16/35 then geometric; gentle
  "again", no streak-shaming), handlers (capture-upsert/list/due/
  review/delete, owner-scoped, SQLite-side datetime math)
- auto-capture on word lookup (dictionary-known words only, captures
  the surrounding sentence + doc_id) + 🤍/💚 toggle on WordCard
- GardenPanel: blossom grid (bloom by reps), flashcard review (sentence
  blanked, flip, again/good/easy, recognition↔production), sleepy-kitten
  footer; opened from a global 🌷 header button

Tests: TestCollocationPassCoexists, vocab scheduler + handlers, db CHECK
extended. go build/vet/test + tsc + vite + vitest (51/51) clean;
migration verified against a copy of the live DB; live backend smoke
walked the full vocab lifecycle + the warm-502 collocation path.

🌸 Petal

A self-hosted, privacy-first writing editor with warm bubbly design, auto-save, and local-LLM grammar/ESL suggestions. See petal-spec.md for the full design spec and BUILD_PLAN.md for build progress.

Stack

Go + chi backend · SQLite (modernc, pure Go) · React + Vite + Tiptap + Tailwind v4 frontend · local vLLM/Ollama for AI suggestions. Single-binary deployment (frontend embedded via go:embed).

Local development

Two processes during development:

# 1. Backend (serves /api on :8080)
go run ./cmd/server

# 2. Frontend dev server (HMR on :5173, proxies /api → :8080)
cd web && npm install && npm run dev

Open http://localhost:5173 while developing.

Production build (single binary)

cd web && npm run build      # emits web/dist (embedded by the Go binary)
cd .. && go build -o petal ./cmd/server
./petal                      # serves UI + API on :8080

Configuration is via environment variables — copy .env.example to .env.

Status

Early build, multi-session. Auth (Authentik), Copyleaks plagiarism, and Docker/Traefik deployment are deferred — see BUILD_PLAN.md.

Description
Petal is a self-hosted, privacy-first writing editor for an ESL user. It replaces Grammarly with a warm, bubbly web app that combines Tiptap rich text editing, auto-save cloud storage, and periodic AI-powered grammar/ESL suggestions backed by a local vLLM inference endpoint.
