Suriyakumarvijayanayagam dad04e8cda Behavision: face recognition for retail, edge to head office
Five components that ship as one product:

- behavision/  the recognition engine. RTSP ingest, YuNet detection, IoU
               tracking, ArcFace embeddings, a FAISS/SQLite gallery, and a
               FastAPI dashboard. Identity is decided once per TRACK from an
               average of at least three embeddings, never per frame.
- agent/       the Go edge agent: supervises the engine, holds a durable
               spool, and drains it to MQTT. Nothing is acked before the
               broker confirms.
- desktop/     the shop PC application (Wails + React + tray).
- server/      the cloud API, MQTT consumer, reports and assistant.
- web/         platform.loyaly.ai, the head-office app, embedded in the
               server binary.

The gallery stores 512-float embeddings and timestamps - no images unless
`app.store_faces` is switched on. Those embeddings are biometric personal
data under GDPR and India's DPDP: template inversion reconstructs a
recognisable face from an ArcFace vector, so data/behavision.db is treated
as a biometric database and DELETE /api/visitors/{id} is a real erasure.

CLAUDE.md carries the reasoning behind every non-obvious decision here,
including the ones that were measured and the ones that were wrong first.
