Research direction

The issue does not name a file or test. Start by locating the importance-score calculation for blobs and inspect how recency, frequency, and size are combined; done means all three contribute equally and higher scores consistently represent greater importance, with tests covering the direction of the score.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

  • Weight recency, frequency, and size equally for now.
  • Higher score should imply a more important blob. The logic is currently the opposite.
