+## Efficiency levers (NL→SQL workflow optimization, 2026-07-08)
+
+Three deployed optimizations target model thinking time (the dominant cost, ~220s in F1 alone):
+
+1. **Join-graph via FK annotations + `tht schema suggest-fks`**
+   - DWH has no FK constraints declared. Annotations file (`tht-workspace-*/artifacts/mschema/annotations.yaml`) now stores curated logical FKs.
+   - Three ranking rules: mine from approved SQL (highest confidence), heuristics (`*_time_key → dim_time.day_key`), same-name PK discovery with `--assume` flag for disambiguity.
+   - **Psd workspace:** 228 FK suggestions already generated (139 tables); `tht schema suggest-fks --from-sql <session-dir> --assume cod_paz=dim_patient` for updates.
+   - **Activation:** automatic. The mschema renderer populates the `【Foreign keys】` section. F4 in SKILL.md now reads FK joins from there instead of the model re-deriving them.
+
+2. **Context-pack consolidation at F1 kickoff (`tht search pack`)**
+   - Single embedding of the question, reused for schema + evidence + solved-question searches.
+   - Command: `tht search pack "<question>" --session <id>` → `sessions/<id>/retrieval_pack.md` (tabelle candidate, relevant evidence, solved exemplars).
+   - Graceful degradation: if Ollama or vector store unreachable (no VPN), sections are empty but exit 0 — session continues with live searches.
+   - **Activation:** automatic at next session. SKILL.md F1 now prescribes as first call; reduces exploratory turns.
+
+3. **Phase-summary recap auto-construction from session ledger**
+   - `tht session show --json` includes the full decisions ledger; `tht phase meta --json` exports decision types per phase.
+   - Gate appends deterministic `【Decisioni registrate in questa fase】` section to v2 phase-summary artifacts.
+   - Model authors only `summary` + `checks`; the gate fills the recap table from persisted state → exact by construction.
+   - **Activation:** automatic at next session and Pi restart. SKILL.md Disciplina 6 updated: model keeps output brief, gate enriches from catalog + ledger.
+
+**Tests:** 358 Python + 111 JS gate, all pass. L2 (live DWH) verification on psd workspace recommended when time permits.
+
 ## Conventions & contracts (don't relearn the hard way)
 - **`-c`/`--config` is a PER-COMMAND option in `tht`** — append it AFTER the subcommand,
   never globally (`ThtRunner.buildArgv` handles this).

+To enable the three deployed optimization levers on a **new workspace**:
+
+```bash
+# Lever 1: Foreign key suggestions from approved SQL + heuristics.
+# Run once after schema introspection to populate annotations.yaml.
+tht schema suggest-fks \
+  --from-sql /path/to/customer/sessions \
+  --assume cod_paz=dim_patient \
+  -c /path/to/customer/workspace.yaml \
+  --write

+# (psd workspace: 228 FK suggestions already generated via this command 2026-07-08)

+# Levers 2 + 3: automatic at next session (context-pack + recap from ledger).
+# No setup needed — SKILL.md prescribes them automatically.
+```
+
+See `PROJECT_STATE.md` for what each lever does.
