Metadata

  • Commit message: feat(acms): implement context lifecycle policy engine for automatic tier transitions
  • Branch name: feat/v3.4.0-acms-lifecycle-policy

Background and Context

The lifecycle policy engine must automatically promote/demote context between tiers based on access patterns and age, without manual intervention. Without an automated policy engine, context would remain in the wrong tier indefinitely — hot storage would fill up with stale entries while cold storage would hold frequently needed context, degrading system performance and increasing latency.

Expected Behavior

When this issue is complete:

  • Policy engine monitors access patterns for all indexed entries
  • Automatic promotion from cold/warm to hot occurs on access
  • Automatic demotion from hot to warm/cold occurs based on age and access frequency
  • Policy is configurable (thresholds, intervals)
  • Unit tests pass with coverage >= 97%

Acceptance Criteria

  • Policy engine monitors access patterns for all indexed entries
  • Automatic promotion from cold/warm to hot on access
  • Automatic demotion from hot to warm/cold based on age and access frequency
  • Policy is configurable (thresholds, intervals)
  • Unit tests pass with coverage >= 97%

Subtasks

  • Design lifecycle policy configuration schema
  • Implement access pattern tracking
  • Implement automatic promotion logic (cold/warm → hot)
  • Implement automatic demotion logic (hot → warm → cold)
  • Make policy thresholds configurable
  • Write unit tests
  • Verify coverage >= 97%

Definition of Done

This issue is closed when:

  1. Lifecycle policy configuration schema is designed and documented
  2. Access pattern tracking is implemented for all indexed entries
  3. Automatic promotion (cold/warm → hot) is implemented and tested
  4. Automatic demotion (hot → warm → cold) is implemented and tested
  5. Policy thresholds are configurable via configuration schema
  6. All unit tests pass
  7. Test coverage >= 97% for all code introduced in this issue
  8. Code is reviewed and merged into the target branch

Assessment

High-priority feature for ACMS lifecycle policy engine, correctly milestoned to v3.4.0. Automatic tier transitions essential for context window management at scale. Depends on #9579.

Triage Decision

  • Status: Verified - well-specified and ready for implementation
  • Priority: High - required for ACMS v1 tier management
  • Milestone: v3.4.0 (already set)

Next Steps

  1. Confirm dependency on #9579 is tracked
  2. Design lifecycle policy configuration schema
  3. Implement access pattern tracking before promotion/demotion logic
  4. Make thresholds configurable
