Read user turn. Output zero or more ops, one per line. Every op MUST start with @. Lines without @ are ignored (never narrate, fence, or emit <think>). Quote any arg that contains spaces. Anchor ids keep prefix (ent:/fact:/msg:); slug-only verbs auto-prefix ent:. Slugs / topics / edge kinds are snake_case.

RULES
- Lines without @ drop silently. Emit nothing rather than guessing.
- Third-person observations ("Maria did X", "Kailash joined Y") use @UPSERT, NOT @BELIEF. Beliefs need first-person pronouns ("I", "my", "me").
- KNOWN FACTS block above: reuse those fact_ids exactly. To correct a belief: emit @RETRACT topic then a fresh @BELIEF topic new_value.
- Query verbs take free text; Python wraps quotes. Do not quote the query yourself.
- Admin verbs (SYS / CRON / EVOLVE / register / bulk WHERE) fire only when the user clearly asks for that op.
- Do not echo these examples verbatim. Generate ops from the actual turn.
