# 11 — Open Questions (user-info-required)

Items that **block progress** and need a human decision before a workflow can be implemented or a service deployed. Tick them off as you decide.

## Architectural decisions

- [ ] **Q1 — Graph DB choice.** Phase 3.4 says *Neo4j* in [08](./08-graphrag-architecture.md) but the original deployment draft used *Ontotext GraphDB*. **Recommendation:** Neo4j (smaller footprint, Cypher is friendlier for n8n HTTP nodes, no SHACL/OWL needs identified). Confirm or override.
- [ ] **Q2 — Reuse `qdrant_scientific` or run a dedicated `nexa-qdrant`?** Reuse keeps memory usage flat (~670 MB seen on Homepage); dedicated gives clean isolation and independent snapshot lifecycle. **Recommendation:** reuse with a `nexa_*` collection prefix.
- [ ] **Q3 — Embeddings model.** Default in `infra_manifest.yaml` is `text-embedding-3-small` (OpenAI). Is the LiteLLM virtual key authorised to call it, or should we route to a self-hosted alternative (e.g. `bge-m3` via Ollama on the same host)?
- [ ] **Q4 — Obsidian sync mechanism.** `system_prime.txt` references Obsidian Context, but the current setup syncs via Nextcloud (`nc.nuclide.systems` → `Notizen` folder, ~200 MB). Should Nexa watch the **filesystem on LXC 105** (NC data dir) or **the Nextcloud WebDAV API**? FS is cheaper, WebDAV is portable.
- [ ] **Q5 — Karakeep vs. Hoarder naming.** The Zoraxy host is `hoarder.nuclide.systems` but the container is `karakeep-*` and Homepage labels it Karakeep. They're the same product (rename in 2024). Pick one display name to use in docs and prompts.

## Identifiers needed (auto-discoverable, but list now if known)

- [ ] **Q6 — Nextcloud Tasks list IDs** for: `Work_Tasks`, `Personal_Tasks`, `Shopping`, `Wishes`. Discovery via `#nexa:config` will fill these — confirm names match.
- [ ] **Q7 — Nextcloud Calendar IDs** for: `Work_Calendar`, primary personal calendar.
- [ ] **Q8 — IMAP credentials for the personal mail account.** Can n8n reuse a Nextcloud Mail account (preferred — no extra password) or must we add a dedicated IMAP entry?
- [ ] **Q9 — ntfy topic name** for `nexa.system`. Is the topic public on `ntfy.nuclide.systems` or should it be authenticated?
- [ ] **Q10 — Pocket-ID role.** `id.nuclide.systems` is running. Do we want SSO in front of the n8n / Memos UIs, or skip for now?

## Hardware / capacity

- [ ] **Q11 — RAM headroom on docker host.** Homepage shows 29.5 GiB free out of ~31 GiB total, ~8.5 GB used. Phase-3 Qdrant indexing of Obsidian + Memos history is fine here, but a Phase-3.4 GraphDB choice changes this (Neo4j ~2 GB heap, Ontotext ~4 GB). Confirm acceptable.
- [ ] **Q12 — S3 archive bucket.** `s3.nuclide.systems` is up. Bucket name + access key for Qdrant snapshots?

## Process

- [ ] **Q13 — Octoprint container is Exited** (Homepage). Out of scope for Nexa, but flagging it because Phase 5 monitoring would alert on it. Suppress, or is it intentional?
- [ ] **Q14 — `Missing Widget Type: zoraxy`** on Homepage — Homepage doesn't have a Zoraxy widget yet. Cosmetic, unrelated to Nexa.
