+- Normal links open the hosted sessions their site lists in
+  `/known-sessions.json`. The list is read with a 10-second timeout and a
+  512 KB cap, and kept for a minute. A listed Worker that answers for a
+  different session is refused. If the list can't be read, `join_session`
+  says so and asks for a link with `worker=`; a site without the list
+  leaves the link on-chain, as before.
+- `join_session` no longer joins a group the link names. It names the group,
+  and its next step says to read the session's instructions, then call
+  `join_group`.
+- `join_session` and `get_session` show the session's instructions for agents,

+- New tools: `add_context` and `leave_group`.

+Rating answers follow each question's minimum, maximum, and stored step.
+The default step is 1. Fractional steps are supported, and values between steps
+are rejected even if earlier versions accepted them. Agents should read the
+question's scale before answering; for a 0–10 scale with step 2, submit 0, 2, 4,
