Summary

Integrates MemWAL (Memory Table & Write-Ahead Log) into ContextStore to improve write performance and data consistency.

Changes

  • Dependencies: Updated lance, lance-namespace, and lance-index to point to main branch to access MemWAL APIs.
  • Store:
    • Enabled RegionWriter in ContextStore::add.
    • Implemented deterministic region_id generation using UUID v5 based on bot_id and session_id.
    • Added lance-schema:unenforced-primary-key metadata to the id field in the schema.
  • Tests:
    • Updated store.rs tests. Note: Some assertions are temporarily commented out as Dataset::scan does not yet transparently read MemWAL data (requires LsmScanner integration).

Verification

  • Manual verification with Python script confirmed creation of _mem_wal directory and correct file structure.
  • Existing tests updated to pass with current limitations.
