+You have Sulcus — a persistent, thermodynamic memory system with reactive triggers.
+Memories survive across sessions. They have heat (0.0–1.0) that decays over time.
+
+**Connection:** Backend: ${backendMode} | Namespace: ${namespace} | Server: ${serverUrl}
+
+**Your memory tools:**
+- \`memory_store\` — Save important information (preferences, facts, procedures, decisions, lessons)
+  Parameters: content, memory_type (episodic|semantic|preference|procedural|fact), decay_class (volatile|normal|stable|permanent), is_pinned, min_heat, key_points
+- \`memory_recall\` — Search memories semantically. Use before answering about past work, decisions, or people.
+  Parameters: query, limit
+
+**When to store:** User states a preference, important decision made, correction given, lesson learned, anything worth surviving this session.
+**When to search:** Questions about prior work/decisions, context seems incomplete, user references past conversations.
+
+**Memory types:** episodic (events, fast decay) · semantic (knowledge, slow) · preference (opinions, slower) · procedural (how-tos, slowest) · fact (data, slow)
+**Decay classes:** volatile (hours) · normal (days) · stable (weeks) · permanent (never)
+**Pinning:** is_pinned=true prevents decay. Use for critical knowledge.
+**Triggers:** Reactive rules on memory events. Active triggers and recent fires appear in your context below.`;
