+# Contributing
+
+Thanks for your interest in contributing to `pi-goal`.
+
+## Development setup
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm run check
+npm test
+```
+
+This package is source-distributed: Pi loads the TypeScript extension files directly. There is no build step for runtime use.
+
+## Local testing
+
+Install this checkout into a temporary Pi project:
+
+```bash
+mkdir -p <test-project>
+cd <test-project>
+pi install -l /path/to/pi-mono/packages/pi-goal
+pi
+```
+
+For a one-off run without changing settings:
+
+```bash
+pi -e /path/to/pi-mono/packages/pi-goal
+```
+
+## Pull request checklist
+
+Before opening a pull request:
+
+- Run `npm run check`.
+- Run `npm test`.
+- Run `npm audit --omit=dev`.
+- Run `npm run pack:dry-run` and confirm the package contents are intentional.
+- Update `README.md` if user-facing behavior changes.
+- Update `CHANGELOG.md` for notable changes.
+- Keep examples and paths generic; do not commit machine-specific paths, session files, API keys, tokens, or local Pi settings.
+
+## Coding guidelines
+
+- Keep `extensions/pi-goal/index.ts` focused on Pi extension wiring and move reusable implementation details into `src/`.
+- When changing model tool parameters, update the Typebox schema, runtime validation, README tool docs, and tests together.
+- Treat persisted mutation shapes, custom message types, command names, and tool names as public interface.
+- Preserve branch-scoped semantics: reconstruct state from `ctx.sessionManager.getBranch()` and avoid global process state that crosses sessions unexpectedly.
+- Bound model-visible context growth; hidden continuation context should stay compact and stale continuation messages should be filtered.
+- Treat goal objectives as untrusted user text and encode them before embedding in continuation prompts.
+
+## Code of conduct

+# @mocito/pi-goal
+
+Persistent long-running goals for Pi, modeled after Codex `/goal`.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+pi install npm:@mocito/pi-goal
+```
+
+For local development:
+
+```bash
+pi -e ./packages/pi-goal
+# or
+pi -e ./packages/pi-goal/extensions/pi-goal/index.ts
+```
+
+## Commands
+
+- `/goal` or `/goal status` — show current goal and usage.
+- `/goal <objective>` — create or replace the branch goal.
+- `/goal --budget 50000 <objective>` — create a budgeted goal.
+- `/goal edit` — edit the objective in a multiline editor.
+- `/goal pause` — pause automatic continuation.
+- `/goal resume` — resume automatic continuation.
+- `/goal clear` — clear the current branch goal.
+- `/goal budget 50000` — set/update token budget.
+- `/goal budget clear` — remove token budget.
+
+Replacing a non-complete goal asks for confirmation when UI is available.
+
+## Model tools
+
+- `get_goal` returns current goal state and remaining budget.
+- `create_goal` creates a goal only when explicitly requested and fails if one already exists.
+- `update_goal` lets the model mark a goal `complete` or `blocked` only. It should mark complete only after requirement-by-requirement verification, and blocked only after the same blocker repeats for at least three goal turns.
+
+## Behavior
+
+Goal state is stored as immutable `pi-goal` custom session entries and reconstructed from `ctx.sessionManager.getBranch()`, so state follows Pi session branches, tree navigation, forks, and reloads.
+
+When an active goal is idle, the extension injects a hidden `pi-goal-context` message and triggers another turn. A context filter keeps only the latest goal context message for the current goal to avoid linear context growth.
+
+The footer and optional editor widget show status, elapsed active time, token usage, and budget.
+
+## Examples
+
+Simple goal:
+
+```text
+/goal update the README with installation instructions
+```
+
+Budgeted goal:
+
+```text
+/goal --budget 50000 refactor the parser and run the test suite
+```
+
+Pause and resume:
+
+```text
+/goal pause
+/goal resume
+```
+
+Branch behavior: goal mutations are stored on the current session branch. If you use `/tree`, `/fork`, or `/clone`, Pi Goal reconstructs the goal from that branch only, so divergent branches can have different goal state.
+
+## Configuration
+
+v1 has no user-facing configuration. Automatic continuation is enabled for active goals and stops when the goal is paused, blocked, complete, usage-limited, budget-limited, cleared, or when pending user messages exist.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- If continuation does not start, run `/goal status` and confirm the goal is `active`.
+- If a goal stops unexpectedly, check whether it reached its token budget or the provider returned a rate/usage limit.
+- If context appears stale after tree navigation or reload, run `/goal status`; branch state is reconstructed from the active branch.
+- In print/JSON modes, commands and tools work, but interactive confirmations/editors are unavailable.
+
+## Limitations
+
+- Token budget is enforced after finalized assistant usage is visible; v1 cannot hard-stop mid-turn.
+- Usage-limit handling is best-effort via HTTP 429 provider responses.
+- Automatic continuation is session-local, not a background daemon.
+
+## Development and validation
+
+From the monorepo root:
+
+```bash
+npm install
+npm run check --workspace packages/pi-goal
+npm test --workspace packages/pi-goal
+npm run pack:dry-run --workspace packages/pi-goal
+npm audit --omit=dev
+```
+
+Before publishing, also run the root validation loop:
+
+```bash
+npm run validate
+```
+
+## Publishing
+
+`@mocito/pi-goal` is published independently from this workspace. Release tags use the monorepo package format:
+
+```text
+@mocito/pi-goal@0.1.0
+```
+
+Use the project-local release command from the repository root when possible:
+
+```text
+/release-package @mocito/pi-goal 0.1.0
+```
+
+## Security and privacy
+
+Pi packages execute arbitrary code with your user permissions. Install only from sources you trust.
+
+`pi-goal` does not require API keys, does not read provider credentials, and does not make network requests. Goal state is stored in local Pi session entries and goal objectives may be sent to the active model as hidden continuation context. Do not put secrets, credentials, tokens, or private data into goal objectives. See [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md) for the full security model and reporting instructions.

+# Security Policy
+
+## Supported versions
+
+Security fixes are provided for the latest released version of `pi-goal`.
+
+## Reporting a vulnerability
+
+Please do not open a public issue for suspected security vulnerabilities.
+
+Report privately by contacting the repository maintainer through GitHub. Include:
+
+- a description of the issue;
+- steps to reproduce;
+- affected versions or commits, if known;
+- any suggested mitigation.
+
+The maintainer will acknowledge reports as soon as practical and coordinate disclosure once a fix or mitigation is available.
+
+## Security model
+
+`pi-goal` is a Pi package. Pi extensions execute with the same permissions as the local user running Pi. Users should review installed Pi packages and only install packages from sources they trust.
+
+`pi-goal` stores goal state as custom entries in the current Pi session branch. Goal objectives and usage summaries may appear in local Pi session files and in hidden continuation context sent to the active model. Do not put secrets, credentials, tokens, or private data into goal objectives.
+
+The package does not require API keys, does not read provider credentials, does not make network requests, and does not write files outside Pi's normal session storage. Its model tools can only inspect the current goal, create a new explicitly requested goal when none exists, or mark the current goal `complete`/`blocked`.
+
+Goal objectives are treated as untrusted user-provided task data when continuation context is built. They are JSON-encoded before being embedded in the hidden context message to reduce prompt-injection risk from delimiter-breaking text.
