v3.5: Knowledge Graduation + SRG Optimization + Auto-Pruning + File Consolidation

1. SRG Lazy Evaluation (SmartResponseGenerator.kt)

• Problem: 35+ subsystems were called BEFORE the probability gate check. With average gate ~9%, 91% of subsystem calls were wasted CPU.
• Fix: Inverted all probability gates so Random.nextFloat() < probability is checked BEFORE calling the subsystem. If the random check fails, the subsystem is never called.
• Replaced parts.add() with parts.addPart() that tracks a partsCollected counter.

2. SRG Part Budget System (SmartResponseGenerator.kt)

• Problem: 30-50 response parts were generated per response, but only 2-3 were used.
• Fix: budgetGate(probability) lambda that enforces limits:
  • After 8 parts collected: skip any gate with probability < 15%
  • After 12 parts collected: skip ALL remaining gates
  • Priority gates (critical health, shiny, near death, evolution) bypass the budget entirely

3. Auto-Pruning of Stale Data (LearningSystem.kt + ExternalAILearning.kt)

• Problem: Learning data accumulated indefinitely, files grew without bound.
• Fix: pruneStaleData() runs every 5 minutes and removes:
  • Associations with strength < 0.1
  • Behavior patterns with < 3 observations AND older than 30 days
  • Lessons with importance < 3 AND older than 60 days
  • Pokemon knowledge with confidence < 0.3 AND not reinforced in 30 days
  • Terminology with frequency == 1 AND older than 14 days
  • ExternalAI responses with effectiveQuality < 0.1
• Backward compatible: pre-v3.5 data (createdAt == 0) is never pruned by age

4. ExternalAI File Consolidation (ExternalAILearning.kt)

• Problem: 11 separate JSON files for ExternalAI learning data.
• Fix: Consolidated to 3 files:
  • learned_responses.json (byNature + byEvent + byEmotion + byTopic + bySpecies + speciesLastUsed)
  • learned_phrases.json (phrases + expressions + openers + closers + conversationPatterns)
  • stats.json (unchanged)
• Backward compatible: loads old 11-file format if new format not found, migrates on next save, then deletes old files

5. Knowledge Graduation System (LearningSystem.kt)

• Problem: Each Pokemon learns independently from scratch. Data accumulated per-Pokemon without cross-pollination.
• Fix: graduateKnowledge() runs every 5 minutes and promotes validated knowledge:
  • Vocabulary appearing in 3+ Pokemon → shared vocabulary
  • Associations in 3+ Pokemon with avg strength > 0.5 → shared associations
  • Behavior patterns with successRate > 0.75 and 10+ observations in 2+ Pokemon → shared patterns
  • Knowledge with confidence > 0.8 and 5+ reinforcements in 2+ Pokemon → shared knowledge
  • Battle strategies from Pokemon with 20+ battles → shared battle meta
• Graduated entries are removed from per-Pokemon data (files shrink over time)
• bootstrapNewPokemon(): Pokemon with < 10 vocabulary items automatically receive graduated knowledge as a starting base
• Saved to graduated_knowledge.json

• CPU: ~91% reduction in subsystem calls, max 12 parts instead of 30-50
• Disk: Files auto-shrink via graduation + pruning, 11 files → 3 for ExternalAI
• AI Quality: New Pokemon inherit validated cross-Pokemon knowledge instead of starting from zero
• Build: BUILD SUCCESSFUL, only 2 pre-existing warnings (playerMessage != null)
