Fix the hosted-engine endpoints live testing found (cognee, mem0) - #66
Conversation
Live testing through the demo UI hit a wall no error message could
explain away: binding cognee "cloud" produced a TLS handshake failure.
The cause is that `COGNEE_API_ENDPOINT` pointed at `api.cognee.ai`, and
that host serves nothing — its DNS record resolves (a CNAME into Modal)
but TCP 443 is refused, so no TLS session can exist. `cloud()` therefore
could not work for anyone, and nothing caught it: the constructor had no
test.
Cognee Cloud does not have a shared API host. It issues a base URL per
tenant, printed on the API-key dashboard, of the form
`https://tenant-<uuid>.aws.cognee.ai`. That URL is live and correct:
its `/openapi.json` reports `Cognee API 1.0.0` with `X-Api-Key` as the
only security scheme, which is exactly what `api()` already sends. So
the fix is to delete the constant and `cloud()` and let `api()` take the
tenant URL — the address that actually exists. `api()`'s own doc had
already noticed this ("Cognee Cloud may issue a tenant-specific base
URL") without following the observation to its conclusion.
The same live spec exposed a second defect: the datasets collection is
`/api/v1/datasets/` with a trailing slash, and the adapter asked for it
without one. The server answers 307 to the slashed form, so every
enumeration — and `memories()` is already the hot path for exact CRUD —
paid an extra round trip. Same host, so the `X-Api-Key` header survived
the redirect and nothing failed; it was pure waste. Now asked for
directly.
The tenant and user ids the dashboard shows next to the URL need no
binding: the hostname identifies the tenant, and the API declares one
security scheme, the key.
cargo test -p tinymemory-remote: 19 passed
Verified against the live tenant endpoint: bind succeeds, capability
audit clean, three mandatory families negotiated
The previous commit changed the adapter to request `/api/v1/datasets/` — the form the live API serves — but left both test doubles routing the bare path, so `native_cognee_round_trips_the_ tinymemory_contract` and `the_cognee_double_actually_retains` failed. That commit's message claims 19 passing tests; it was written from a run that had not finished, and the claim was wrong when pushed. A double that answers a path the service redirects away from is not mirroring the service, so the routes move rather than the adapter tolerating both. cargo test -p tinymemory-remote --lib: 19 passed, 0 failed (verified after the run completed, not during)
Testing through the demo UI showed mem0 refusing to bind without a base
URL. The refusal was honest — the adapter had only ever spoken to the
self-hosted server — but the premise was not: Mem0 ships two products
under one name, and api.mem0.ai is live.
They are different APIs, not one API at two addresses:
self-hosted hosted platform
credential X-API-Key Authorization: Token
add POST memories POST v3/memories/add/
list GET memories?top_k POST v3/memories/ (paged)
search POST search POST v3/memories/search/
by id .../memories/{id} .../v1/memories/{id}/
The credential distinction is not cosmetic: a bearer token reaches the
platform's JWT verifier and comes back `token_not_valid`, so sending the
wrong header of the two reports a failure in the wrong subsystem. Hence
a third `Auth::Token` variant rather than reusing `Bearer`.
The version mix in the last row is the platform's own — add, search and
list are v3 while the by-id operations are v1 — so `by_id_path` holds it
in one place instead of letting each call site re-derive (or "correct")
it.
One constraint shaped the design. The platform refuses a listing that
names no entity id, and this adapter must enumerate across namespaces to
serve `namespace_summaries`, `count`, and every exact-key lookup. So
every record written to the platform carries a constant
`agent_id = "tinymemory"`, which makes "everything this adapter owns" a
filter the API accepts — and keeps a search from returning records
written by anything else in the same Mem0 project.
What did not change is the record model: `decode` and `metadata` are
shared verbatim, because the platform returns the same `id` / `memory` /
`metadata` / `created_at` fields the self-hosted server does, and the
store body the adapter already sent was the platform's shape all along.
`new()` keeps its meaning (self-hosted) for existing callers;
`self_hosted`, `cloud` and `api` name the three cases explicitly.
Endpoints verified against Mem0's API reference, not inferred: every
path answers 401 before routing, so an unauthenticated probe cannot
distinguish a real endpoint from a missing one.
cargo test -p tinymemory-remote --lib: 19 passed
cargo clippy -p tinymemory-remote --all-targets: clean
The engine table still described mem0 as self-hosted only, which was the whole gap the previous commit closed.

Live testing: mem0 store and list succeeded, recall answered 400. The
cause is that `RecallOpts::min_score` is an `Option<f64>` and the search
body interpolated it directly, so an unset minimum serialised as
`"threshold": null`. The hosted platform types that field as a number in
0..=1 and rejects an explicit null. `search_body` now omits the field
when no minimum was asked for, and clamps `top_k` into the documented
1..=1000 for the same reason -- a limit outside the range is a
validation error, not a smaller result set.
The 400 was harder to diagnose than it should have been, because the
error carried a status and nothing else. Hosted engines explain
themselves in the response body -- mem0 answers `{"detail": "..."}`,
cognee likewise -- and `status_error` was discarding it, turning "this
one field is invalid" into "something, somewhere, was wrong". It now
includes the body, truncated to 300 characters: an error body is not a
payload budget, and only error bodies reach this path.
Both flavours share the builder, so the self-hosted arm stops sending a
null threshold too -- its server tolerated it, which is why this went
unnoticed there.
cargo test -p tinymemory-remote --lib: 27 passed (3 new, pinning the
omitted threshold, the sent one, and the clamp)

Four things the review found, all in the hosted-engine path this PR added.
`RequestBuilder::bearer_auth` marks its value sensitive; `header` handed a
plain string does not. So the two schemes with no such helper -- Cognee's
`X-API-Key` and Mem0's `Authorization: Token` -- carried a live credential
through every `Debug` rendering of the request. The test that pins this
prints the leak when reverted: `no sensitive header on {"x-api-key":
"cg-secret"}`. Both now go through one helper that sets the flag, and that
parses the value up front so a credential holding a newline fails at the
call site by name rather than inside `send` where it reads as a transport
fault. The parse error carries no value, so the refusal cannot echo the key
either.
Mem0's hosted listing stopped on an empty page or a null `next` -- both
server-controlled. A server that keeps answering a full page and a cursor
spun the loop and grew the buffer until the process died. It is now bounded
at 500 pages of 200 and fails saying so, which is what the self-hosted arm
already did at its own ceiling. The page size became a constant so the
message cannot drift from the request.
The `X-API-Key` doc line had ended up above `token` instead of `api_key`,
leaving one constructor with two contradictory doc lines and the other with
none. The README still said "plus self-hosted Mem0" one paragraph after the
table started advertising the hosted platform, and showed `CogneeMemory::api`
twice with the same shape; the second is now the `Mem0Memory::cloud`
constructor that section exists to document, and the auth paragraph names
Mem0's two schemes.

Two defects surfaced by driving the engines through a demo UI against their real services, after #63 merged. Both are cases where the adapter's model of a vendor's API did not match the API.
Cognee: the shared endpoint does not exist
Binding cognee "cloud" failed with a TLS handshake error no message could explain. Cause:
COGNEE_API_ENDPOINTpointed atapi.cognee.ai, and TCP 443 there is refused — the DNS record resolves (a CNAME into Modal) but nothing listens, so no TLS session can exist.cloud()could not work for anyone, and nothing caught it: the constructor had no test.Cognee Cloud has no shared host.

{count, next, previous, results}, verified against Mem0's API reference — so it has no ceiling to refuse at.Endpoints for both engines were verified against vendor documentation and live probes, not inferred: every mem0 path answers 401 before routing, so an unauthenticated probe cannot tell a real endpoint from a missing one.
