agent: lumotia-rebrand — docs, scripts, root config, residuals
Phase 9 of the rebrand cascade. Sweep covers everything the Phase 8
frontend pass deliberately skipped: docs/, root markdown, scripts,
Cargo.toml descriptions, code comments that survived earlier
word-boundary sed, plus a handful of identifiers caught on the final
verify pass.

transcription-app changes:
- README.md, HANDOVER.md, KNOWN-ISSUES.md, run.sh — magnotia/Magnotia
  -> lumotia/Lumotia.
- docs/ — sweep across all subdirs except docs/handovers/ (preserved
  as immutable audit trail). Includes architecture-map references
  to magnotia_core::*, magnotia_storage::*, etc. now pointing at
  lumotia_*; dev-setup.md tracing output examples (lumotia_startup
  target); brief/ + superpowers/ + issues/ + whisper-ecosystem/ +
  audit/.
- Cargo.toml descriptions on 9 crates (core, audio, cloud-providers,
  hotkey, llm, mcp, plus referenced others).
- crates/core/src/{error,hardware,recommendation,paths}.rs +
  crates/audio/src/wav.rs + crates/llm/src/model_manager.rs +
  crates/cloud-providers/src/keystore.rs + crates/mcp/src/lib.rs —
  doc comments and a model-manager user-agent string.
- Caught on final pass: BroadcastChannel("magnotia_task_sync") -> ...
  ("lumotia_task_sync"); magnotia_locale i18n localStorage key
  renamed + migration shim added; CSS keyframe names
  magnotiaPulse / magnotiaBar / magnotiaFade renamed in the design-
  system kit; magnotia_viewer_item / magnotia_viewer_mode handoff
  keys renamed in HistoryPage + viewer/+page.svelte; src/assets/
  wordmark.svg text.
- src-tauri/src/lib.rs comment cleanup ("magnotia era" was sed'd
  to "lumotia era" earlier — restored).

Preserved (intentional):
- crates/core/src/paths.rs — keeps "magnotia" / "Magnotia" / ".magnotia"
  legacy detection strings in legacy_and_target_paths() so the
  migration shim can still find user data from the magnotia era.
- src/lib/stores/{page,focusTimer}.svelte.ts + src/lib/i18n/index.ts
  — migration call sites reference the legacy magnotia keys
  deliberately.
- docs/handovers/ — historical audit trail.

cargo build --workspace passes. npm run check: 0 errors / 0 warnings
(3958 files). cargo test --workspace: 339 pass / 0 fail.

Raw Blame History

A7. Evolutionary Psychology and Meta-Insights

Supplementary finding: ADHD traits — rapid environmental scanning, novelty-seeking, relational cognition — were highly adapted to high-stimulation ancestral environments. Barack et al. (2024) confirmed this experimentally: ADHD individuals depart resource patches sooner in foraging tasks, consistent with an exploration-biased strategy. Modern low-stimulation contexts cause "G Collapse" (emotional volatility, burnout, profound executive dysfunction). Generative AI providing rapid-fire stimulation, dialogue, and novelty satisfies the dopaminergic requirements that modern environments fail to meet.

Meta-insight across all domains: The populations who need these tools most benefit from them the most. Toli et al. found implementation intention effects of d = 0.99 in clinical populations vs. d = 0.65 in general populations. Joo et al. found spacing interventions specifically help those with elevated visual crowding. Kofler et al. found 7581% of ADHD cases show the WM deficits that make local-first architecture necessary. A well-designed tool's efficacy curve is steepest for the most impaired users.

Implication for Lumotia: The app should feel alive, not static. The convergence of voice-first interaction (reduces navigation complexity), local-first architecture (eliminates latency), and AI presence (provides external regulation) addresses different links in the same causal chain. Each feature amplifies the others.
