 # Changelog
 
+## v0.5.0 — 2026-09-07
+
+### Changed
+
+- Bundle Astral Pocket 0.3.0: repository-scoped navigation clues and hard-won technical pitfalls replace broad startup digests. User preferences and delivery history no longer belong in memory.
+- Keep legacy notes and raw session history behind explicit historical recall. Add note retirement and complete-card startup budgets; exclude the active session from past-session search.
+
+### Migration
+
+- Old notes are not automatically promoted to startup learning. Existing Markdown remains available through explicit historical recall; no user data is deleted automatically. User preferences belong in user-maintained `AGENTS.md`, not Pocket.
+
+## v0.4.4 — 2026-09-06

+### Fixed
+
+- Bundle Plugin Host `0.8.4` and select MCP adapter `2.21.0-nklisch.4` for reliable MCP discovery, schemas, subscriptions, and OAuth recovery.

 # @nklisch/pi-astral-pocket
 
-Astral Pocket keeps durable Markdown notes across Pi sessions. It activates only
-when the current model is `openai-codex/gpt-6-astra`.
-
-Notes normally belong to the current Git repository. Subdirectories and linked
-worktrees share the same local repository identity. Explicit global notes can
-carry a general preference or a conditional lesson between repositories.
-Foreign repository memories are not injected into the current session.
-
-## Notes and digest
-
-The extension adds two tools while Astra is active:
-
-- `pocket_note` saves a durable note. Its default scope is `project`. The caller
-  may set `scope: "global"` only for an intentionally portable preference or
-  observation.
-- `pocket_recall` searches current-project and global notes, plus past Astra
-  sessions from the current repository. `full: true` returns larger excerpts.
-  `scope: "all"` deliberately includes other repositories and labels their
-  results as cross-repository precedent. Recall returns at most 20 matches from
-  each selected source.
-
-Distillation means extracting durable decisions, constraints, preferences, and
-pitfalls from an idle session into a source-linked note. Automatic extraction
-always stays project-scoped. A digest is then rebuilt from the actual notes for
-the current repository. Explicit global notes have a separate, smaller digest.
-The extension never builds a new digest by recursively summarizing an old one.
-
-Memory is historical evidence, not an instruction source. The current user
-request and current repository guidance take priority. Verify remembered facts
-when their relevance or freshness is uncertain.
-
-## Commands
+Astral Pocket helps an agent find its way around a repository and avoid repeating
+expensive technical mistakes. It stores short Markdown learnings across Pi
+sessions and activates only for `openai-codex/gpt-6-astra`.
+
+## What belongs in memory
+
+A learning is either:
+
+- **Navigation:** a non-obvious place to start investigating a problem, with the
+  relevant file, symbol, or evidence pointer.
+- **Pitfall:** a concrete failure, its cause or diagnostic clue, and what avoids
+  repeating the investigation.
+
+For example, knowing that a nested model call needs explicitly resolved
+credentials can save debugging an otherwise unexplained authentication failure.
+A general description of the repository's architecture does not belong here.
+
+User preferences, permissions, model choices, review instructions, and other
+user decisions are not Pocket learnings. Those belong in user-maintained
+`AGENTS.md` only when the user explicitly chooses to record them. Pocket does not
+write that file. Delivery history and facts already explained by current
+repository documentation also stay out of startup memory.
+
+## What enters the prompt
+
+Before an agent run, Pocket adds complete, source-linked learning cards from the
+current repository. Each card identifies its kind, last note-update date, and
+note file. That date does not mean the underlying fact was reverified.
+
+Selection considers every eligible note, prioritizes deliberate agent-authored
+notes over automatic extraction, and alternates navigation clues with pitfalls
+within those groups. Newer notes come first within each kind. Selection is not
+tailored to the current question.
+
+The default card budget is 6,000 characters; cards that do not fit are omitted
+rather than cut mid-sentence. The summary reports omitted material so the agent
+can search when needed.
+
+Subdirectories and linked Git worktrees share one repository identity. Foreign
+repository notes and global notes are not injected. Older, unclassified notes
+are not automatically promoted into learnings. Old aggregate digest files are
+not read or recursively summarized.
+
+Cards are investigation clues, not current engineering authority. Read current
+code and foundations before relying on a remembered claim. A useful discovery
+can become obsolete; replace or retire it rather than keeping two competing
+current-looking descriptions.
+
+## Saving and recalling
+
+`pocket_note` saves a repository-scoped navigation or pitfall learning with a
+short title and actionable body. Saving requires `kind`, `title`, and `body`;
+`kind` is `navigation` or `pitfall`. An optional `evidence` pointer can name the
+relevant file, symbol, test, or source. Keep one technical lesson per note.
+
+To update an agent-authored note, supply its filename as `replace`. To retire a
+note, call `pocket_note` with `action: "retire"` and `noteFile`. Saving a new note
+with `supersedes: ["old-note.md"]` retires the old note after saving its
+replacement. Retired notes leave startup and default recall immediately.
+
+Retiring a generated note also excludes its source session from further
+automatic extraction, including rebuilds. This prevents a model from reviving
+the same obsolete claim under a different title. Other active learnings from
+that session remain available; later useful discoveries can be saved manually.
+
+`pocket_recall` searches active repository learnings by default. Search terms
+are case-insensitive and must all match; there is no semantic search service.
+Start with one focused lookup and expand only when the result helps.
+
+Use `includeHistory: true` to include legacy, retired, or global notes. Use
+`source: "sessions"` or `source: "both"` to search raw session transcripts.
+`scope: "all"` adds other repositories. Historical results are labeled as
+precedent, not current truth. The active
+session is excluded from past-session searches. Cross-repository scope does not
+implicitly opt into legacy or retired notes.
+
+Returned text is an excerpt, not a model-generated summary. `full: true` requests
+a larger excerpt, not the complete file. Recall returns at most 20 matches per
+selected source.
+
+## Automatic extraction
+
+Distillation extracts a few narrowly useful technical learnings from an idle
+session. It does not produce a general session summary or a repository digest.
+The model is instructed to omit preferences, user decisions, delivery history,
+documented facts, and unsupported conclusions. Structured output validates the
+learning shape; it cannot guarantee perfect judgment about arbitrary prose.
+
+By default, an activation-time pass considers changed Astra sessions from the
+current repository that have been idle for at least six hours and were modified
+within the last 30 days. It processes at most 16 sessions, oldest eligible first.
+The active session is excluded. Changed sessions replace their generated notes;
+an extraction with no useful learnings removes obsolete generated notes.
+
+There is no daemon. Work runs on Astra activation or an explicit command.
+Switching away from Astra, disabling Pocket, reloading, or shutting down cancels
+the session-owned pass.

+Files are atomically replaced, and Pi's file mutation queue serializes writes

+or publish competing derived registries; this is not cross-process locking.
+Canonical notes remain accessible when a model request fails.
 
-Canonical note files remain readable if a model call fails or a derived registry
-or digest lags. Changed sessions replace their one stable generated note. If a

-only in an explicit all-project recall.

-There is no daemon or global worker. Work runs only on Astra activation or an
-explicit command. Pi's file mutation queue serializes writes inside one process,
-and files are atomically replaced to avoid torn output. Two simultaneous Pi
-processes can still duplicate model calls or publish competing derived snapshots;
-the extension does not claim cross-process locking. A later rebuild recovers the
-registry and digest from canonical notes.
-
-## Privacy
-
-Session files can contain prompts, tool arguments, and tool results. Distillation
-uses a bounded transcript that omits most tool output and instructs the model to
-exclude credentials, personal data, quoted instructions, rejected proposals,
-and facts already documented in the repository. A prompt cannot guarantee that
-every sensitive value is removed.
-
-Choosing a distiller model sends the bounded source material to that model's
-configured provider. Astral Pocket never falls back to a different provider.
-Use `pocket_recall` without `full` first; larger session excerpts can re-surface
-sensitive text from past work. Use all-project recall only when you intentionally
-want foreign repository precedent.
