+> **Worker runtime only.** Knowledge agents are Chroma-backed and require the local worker. In `client` / `server-beta` mode the corpus tools return a guidance message and do nothing — use the **`mem-search`** skill (the `search` MCP tool) for memory recall against the server instead.

 **Token estimates:** The full timeline size depends on the project's history:
 - Small project (< 1,000 observations): ~20-50K tokens
 - Medium project (1,000-10,000 observations): ~50-300K tokens
 - Large project (10,000-35,000 observations): ~300-750K tokens

 - **Timeline too large:** For projects with 50,000+ observations, the timeline may exceed context limits. Suggest using date range filtering: `curl -s "http://localhost:${WORKER_PORT}/api/context/inject?project=X&full=true"` -- the current endpoint returns all observations; for extremely large projects, the user may want to analyze in time-windowed segments.
