practice: the learner's creation note — optional free-form input carried to partitioner + generators (owner, 2026-09-29)

- dialog: optional 'Anything else?' textarea (typing-only, 2000-char mirror)
- API: body gains note? — trimmed, whitespace-only omitted, hard 400 over 2000
- pipeline: note persisted on the set and threaded to both agent stages
- agents: THE LEARNER'S NOTE prompt block (present only when set) + the
  weighed-never-owed stance pinned in both doctrines
- fix en route: doubled THE PARAMETERS heading in both prompts since slice 3
  (renderParams owns the heading; the literal blocks removed)

 **The jobs pattern — registry, not JobRecords.** Practice runs are NOT Workbench jobs: no `JobStore` records, no steer messages, nothing ever wakes the teacher — a practice run isn't chat-scoped (a set outlives its birth session and has no lesson to re-enter; its result is itself, persisted in its own store and read by its own page). What it shares with the Workbench is the observability surface: a `globalThis` run registry (the module-instance idiom — `__lhPracticeRuns`) with PER-PROBLEM ROWS (owner ruling, 2026-09-29 — matching the extraction per-chunk pattern): `setId:partition` while the partitioner runs ("Partitioning — title"), then one `setId:gen:problemId` per problem ("queued"→"generating", label "Problem i/N — title"), and one `setId:grade:problemId` per graded answer ("queued"→"grading", "Grading i/N — title") — each row its OWN abort controller and its OWN usage accumulation; the row key IS the feed id (the dock dup-key law) and the abort target. ABORT ROUTES BY ROW SHAPE: a gen-row abort kills THAT problem only (siblings continue; the set still settles `ready` with one errored problem), a partition-row abort ends the whole run, a grade-row abort drops that grade (answer kept — one attempt, the problem stays done); set-level abort (delete) composes from row aborts plus the synchronous persisted marks. Model calls — partitioner included — run under the SHARED background-LLM semaphore (`bg-llm-semaphore.ts`): one process-wide pool of 3 permits for ALL background LLM jobs, extraction chunks included (total background LLM concurrency bounded at 3, whoever calls). A boot sweep marks orphaned `partitioning`/`generating` sets as `error "Interrupted (server restarted)"` — once per process, and only when the set's `updatedAt` heartbeat is >120s stale (a live run's 30s FILE watchdog keeps the heartbeat fresh even across dev's per-worker processes — the registry is not shared between them; the guard trio closed a live-stamping bug from the first live test) — the job runner's crash-honesty at set grain. Store writes serialize behind a per-set mutex; the pipeline is the sole writer of `data/practice`.
 
-**API + UI.** Creation is GRAPH-DOMAIN, not chat-domain (owner ruling 2026-09-29: "problem sets always take in nodes — graph objects"): `POST /api/practice/sets` takes `{nodeIds, params, title?}` ONLY — no chatId, no clusterId; the UI resolves a picked cluster to its member node ids and passes the cluster's label as the title. `GET /api/graph/clusters` serves the picker: the birth-session partition itself (`birthSessionPartition`, same ordering — size desc, ties by id) — EVERY group regardless of size (owner ruling, same evening: MIN_CLUSTER_SIZE is a hull-drawing rule; practice availability must not inherit a visual threshold), each as `{key, kind: "chat"|"notes", label, nodeIds, nodeCount}`; a cluster whose naming record is gone keeps `label: null` — honest, never guessed. 202 `{id}` with generation fire-and-forget; 400 empty selection (empty intersection with live nodes — the vanished-nodes edge) / bad params; 503 model/key refusal. `GET /api/practice/sets` · `GET/DELETE /api/practice/sets/[id]` (delete aborts live runs first) · `POST /api/practice/sets/[id]/answers` (202; 409 when not ready; 400 re-answering a submitted problem — one attempt). Surfaces: `/practice` (the list — the chat-pattern top bar with the sidebar reopen toggle and the New action at the right edge, status/counts rows, delete confirm, the new-set dialog with the named-level controls (a 5-detent ladder slider, a 3-detent cue slider, a Theory|Application toggle — each showing the level's name + definition) and the cluster picker — the ONLY creation entry for now; the graph-view cluster entry comes later with the free-form selection UI) and `/practice/[id]` (the exam page — the chat-pattern top bar, a levels + status line, numbered problems, markdown statements with math healing at the display seam, a textarea + focus-gated dictation bar per problem with its OWN Submit button — one attempt per problem, instant solution/rubric reveal, the score landing live).

The `note` is the learner's optional free-form creation input (owner, same evening: more learner control, no other purpose): trimmed, capped at 2000 characters, persisted on the set, and carried to the partitioner and every generator as `THE LEARNER'S NOTE` — an additional input the agents WEIGH but are never obliged to follow (the doctrine pins the stance: it never moves a problem off its rung or out of its band, and the partition laws always win). `GET /api/graph/clusters` serves the picker: the birth-session partition itself (`birthSessionPartition`, same ordering — size desc, ties by id) — EVERY group regardless of size (owner ruling, same evening: MIN_CLUSTER_SIZE is a hull-drawing rule; practice availability must not inherit a visual threshold), each as `{key, kind: "chat"|"notes", label, nodeIds, nodeCount}`; a cluster whose naming record is gone keeps `label: null` — honest, never guessed. 202 `{id}` with generation fire-and-forget; 400 empty selection (empty intersection with live nodes — the vanished-nodes edge) / bad params; 503 model/key refusal. `GET /api/practice/sets` · `GET/DELETE /api/practice/sets/[id]` (delete aborts live runs first) · `POST /api/practice/sets/[id]/answers` (202; 409 when not ready; 400 re-answering a submitted problem — one attempt).

 **Model wiring.** Three roles — `partitioner`, `problemGenerator`, `grader` — all pinned to the **strong** slot (quality-critical, one settings edit from cheap) and in `BACKGROUND_MODEL_ROLES` (per-role overrides). The stage agents are single-submit loops on the shared `runSubmitAgent` seam (`submit-agent.ts`, extracted from extraction for exactly this): a `validate` hook turns a bad submit into a tool-input error the model retries against, within `maxTurns 4`; exhaustion fails the stage honestly (the set says so, the chains re-run cleanly on a new set).
