-- `clawhdf5-agent`: **the HNSW parameters are configurable** —
+- **Two read-path bugs fixed, one of them silent.** Datasets indexed by an

+  Extensible Array (any dataset with one unlimited dimension) returned data
-  (defaults 16, 64, and 0 meaning "scale with `k`", i.e. today's behaviour).
+  from the wrong chunks past their first few dozen. If you have readings taken
-  They were constants, so a deployment could not trade recall against memory
+  from such a dataset with an earlier release, they may be wrong; re-read them.
-  or query speed at all. All three are persisted with the store. Values are
+- **A corrupt chunk index is now an error.** Fixed and Extensible Array
-  clamped where the index requires it: `clawhdf5-ann` asserts a graph degree
+  structures carry checksums that were previously ignored, so damage surfaced
-  of at least 2, so a configured 0 — from a file, or from a caller who took 0
+  as plausible data from the wrong offset. Code that read a damaged file and
-  to mean "default" — used to abort the process inside the builder. Lowering
+  got numbers will now get `ChecksumMismatch` instead. That is the point.
-  `ef_search` also no longer narrows the candidate pool that fusion sees.
+- **Breaking:** `MemoryConfig` gained `hnsw_m`, `hnsw_ef_construction` and
-  **Breaking:** `MemoryConfig` gained fields, so literal constructions need

-  updating; `..Default::default()` does not.
+  `..Default::default()` does not. All three default to the previous
-
+  behaviour.
-### Performance
-- `clawhdf5-agent`: **opening a store is ~28% faster** (455 ms -> 327 ms at
-  100k x 384). `read_from_disk` memory-mapped the file and then copied the
-  entire mapping into a `Vec` for `File::from_bytes`, when `File::open`
-  memory-maps it directly — so every open paid a full-file memcpy for nothing.
-  Process peak memory is unchanged: the peak falls after the parse, during the
-  index build, so the transient never reached the high-water mark. The
-  footprint harness now reports that peak next to the retained figure, which
-  is how this was checked rather than assumed.
-
-### Integrity
-- `clawhdf5-format`: **Fixed and Extensible Array chunk indexes now verify
-  their checksums** (the `checksum` feature, on by default). Every structure
-  in both — header, index block, super block, data block and each data block
-  page — carries a Jenkins lookup3 checksum that was parsed past and ignored.
-  The consequence of skipping it is not a missing warning but wrong data: a
-  single flipped bit in a chunk address still parses, still points inside the
-  file, and the reader hands back whatever bytes now sit there as the chunk's
-  contents. Verified in both directions — the checksums accept files written
-  by HDF5 2.0 at 100 to 200 000 chunks, dense, sparse, filtered and paged,
-  and an interop test corrupts an address to confirm the read now fails
-  instead of returning data (it does return data when the check is removed).
-
-### Performance
-- `clawhdf5-accel`: **`dot_i8`, a runtime-dispatched int8 dot product** (AVX2:
-  sign-extend each half to `i16`, then `madd_epi16`; scalar fallback
-  elsewhere). The quantised HNSW index used a scalar loop while the `f32` path
-  it was measured against ran AVX2, so the ~13% throughput cost recorded for
-  `MemoryConfig::quantized_index` was a missing kernel rather than a property
-  of int8. With the kernel, at N = 100 000 x 384 and equal recall, the
-  quantised index answers **1.63x as many queries per second** (21 848 vs
-  13 399 at ef=64, recall 0.9940 vs 0.9945) and builds **1.8x faster** (1778
-  vs 3197 ms) — on top of holding a quarter of the vectors. Medians of three
-  alternating runs. It remains off by default only because the kernel is
-  AVX2-only and aarch64 falls back to the scalar loop. Integer arithmetic, so
-  the SIMD path is tested to agree with scalar bit for bit.

   termination. It never did; it scores every match exhaustively. It now says
