-# Temporary Holding Version
+# Squirrel Notes MCP: local embeddings (opt-in)
 
-This version is a temporary placeholder for this package. An operational version to replace this has been submitted for review and is awaiting a staged release.
+`@squirrelnotes.app/mcp-embeddings` is the Squirrel Notes stdio MCP server
+with **semantic memory search**. `search_memory` finds a memory by its meaning
+as well as its words, so *"what coffee do they order?"* can find *"Orders a
+flat white with oat milk"*.
+
+It is the same server as [`@squirrelnotes.app/mcp`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@squirrelnotes.app/mcp):
+the same tools, the same inputs and the same output shape. It is built from the
+same source and published from the same commit, at the same version. The
+only difference is the order `search_memory` returns. If you do not install it,
+nothing changes for you.
+
+## What stays on your machine
+
+- **The model runs locally.** It is all-MiniLM-L6-v2, a small English
+  sentence-embedding model. It runs in this process, on your CPU, through
+  ONNX Runtime. **No memory text is sent anywhere to be embedded**: not to
+  Squirrel Notes, not to HuggingFace, and not to any embedding API.
+- **The model ships inside the package.** Nothing is downloaded when the
+  server runs, so embeddings work offline.
+- **ONNX Runtime's own telemetry is turned off.** The runtime's official
+  macOS and Linux builds report usage to Microsoft by default. This package
+  sets `ORT_DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1` before the runtime loads, whatever your
+  environment says. **On Windows** the runtime reports through Windows' own
+  event tracing (ETW) instead, which that setting does not affect; whether
+  those events leave your machine depends on your Windows diagnostic-data
+  settings.
+- **Vectors stay local and encrypted.** Embedding vectors can reveal roughly
+  what a text said, so they are treated like the text itself:
+  - they are never sent to the server, never logged and never returned by a
+    tool;
+  - they are kept in one file per account in your OS cache directory
+    (`~/Library/Caches/squirrel-notes/` on macOS, `$XDG_CACHE_HOME` or
+    `~/.cache` on Linux, `%LOCALAPPDATA%` on Windows);
+  - that file is encrypted with AES-256-GCM, under a key derived (HKDF-SHA256)
+    from your data key, and written with mode `0600`. Windows ignores Unix
+    modes; there the file has your user profile's permissions.
+- **What still leaves your machine is what always did.** The server stores your
+  memories as ciphertext only. `search_memory`'s *results* (the memory text)
+  go to the agent that asked, and so to that agent's model provider, exactly
+  as with the base package.
+
+**What the encryption does not protect against:** anyone who can read your MCP
+client config. That file holds your passphrase, which unlocks the data key,
+which unlocks the vector file. The encryption protects the vector file when it
+leaks on its own: in a backup, a synced folder or a support bundle.
+
+## Install (opt-in)
+
+Change `args` in your MCP client config from the base package to this one. The
+`env` block stays the same; add `ONNXRUNTIME_NODE_INSTALL` as shown.
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "squirrel-notes": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "@squirrelnotes.app/mcp-embeddings"],
+      "env": {
+        "SQUIRREL_API_BASE_URL": "https://api.squirrelnotes.app",
+        "SQUIRREL_API_KEY": "sqn_<your_api_key>",
+        "SQUIRREL_PASSPHRASE": "<your_passphrase>",
+        "ONNXRUNTIME_NODE_INSTALL": "skip"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Why `ONNXRUNTIME_NODE_INSTALL=skip`.** The runtime, `onnxruntime-node`, has an
+install script. On Linux x64 only, that script downloads the NVIDIA CUDA
+add-ons from nuget.org by default, checking no hash. This
+package does not use the GPU, so the download is never needed. The setting turns
+it off. On macOS, Windows and Linux arm64, the script downloads nothing.
+
+**Pinned dependencies.** The package ships an `npm-shrinkwrap.json`, so npm
+installs exactly the dependency versions that were audited and licence-checked
+for the release.
+
+**Size.** The package is about 17 MB to download, most of it the model.
+`onnxruntime-node` adds about 300 MB unpacked, because it ships binaries for
+every platform. That is why embeddings are a separate package.
+
+To go back to lexical search, change `args` back to `@squirrelnotes.app/mcp`.
+The vector file can be deleted at any time; it is rebuilt when needed.
+
+## How search ranks
+
+- Without this package, `search_memory` is lexical: BM25 over the words of each
+  memory's text, entity and tags, times a recency decay per category.
+- With it, two orders are fused by reciprocal rank fusion (k = 60): the
+  lexical order, and the semantic order (cosine similarity between the query
+  and each memory, times the same recency decay). Each order counts the decay
+  once, and the fused score is not multiplied again. A memory in both orders
+  ranks above one in only one.
+- A semantic match must reach a minimum similarity of 0.35. Below that, a
+  memory is returned only if its words match.
+- `score` is on a 0–1 scale here, and unbounded BM25 in the base package. The
+  keys are the same in both.
+- Words outside ASCII letters and digits never match lexically, in either
+  package. Embeddings can find some of these memories (see *Recall*).
+- A query with no ASCII letters or digits always comes back with a `note`.
+  It says the query cannot be searched, unless the semantic ranking actually
+  ran, in which case it says the results were found only by meaning.
+
+## When it is lexical anyway
+
+Search falls back to the base package's lexical order, and says so once on
+stderr, never per call, when:
+
+- `SQUIRREL_MEMORY_EMBEDDINGS=0` is set;
+- a model file's size or SHA-256 differs from `model-manifest.json`, or a
+  model file is missing (the model is refused, never loaded);
+- ONNX Runtime cannot load on your platform;
+- the runtime fails during a search (lexical for the rest of the session).
+
+While the model is still loading at start-up (a fraction of a second), search
+is lexical too.
+
+**First searches.** Each memory is embedded once, then only again when it
+changes (its revision moves). A search spends at most 8 seconds embedding
+memories that have no vector yet; the rest still rank lexically until a later
+search embeds them. Measured on an Apple M1 Pro: 500 memories in 4.4 s, 5,000
+in 26.7 s.
+
+## Model integrity
+
+`model-manifest.json` pins the model to a commit of
+[`sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2`](https://huggingface.co/sentence-transformers/all-MiniLM-L6-v2)
+(`1110a243…`, the quantised `onnx/model_qint8_arm64.onnx`, which runs on any
+CPU). It records each file's size and SHA-256.
+
+- The release workflow fetches the files from that commit, never from a
+  branch. It refuses any file that does not match, and checks them again
+  before packing.
+- Every start reads each file, checks it, and gives the runtime the same bytes
+  it checked, so a file replaced after the check is never loaded.
+- `SQUIRREL_MEMORY_MODEL_DIR` can point at a copy you placed yourself. It goes
+  through the same check.
+
+The model is Apache-2.0; see `LICENSE-MODEL.txt`. This package is MIT.
+
+## Recall
+
+The release is gated on a recall test (`npm run test:recall`). It compares
+recall@5 of lexical and hybrid search on 500 memories and 160 queries.
+
+- The corpus is **synthetic and written by an AI agent**, not user data, which
+  zero-knowledge encryption makes unreadable.
+- Hybrid search must gain at least 15 points on paraphrased queries, and must
+  not lose on exact-word queries.
+- The latest results are in ADR-0444 in the Squirrel Notes repository.
+
+## Environment variables
+
+Everything in the base package's README applies, plus:
+
+| Variable | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|
+| `SQUIRREL_MEMORY_EMBEDDINGS` | on | `0` turns semantic search off (lexical only). |
+| `SQUIRREL_MEMORY_MODEL_DIR` | the package's `model/` | Directory holding the model files. They are checked against the manifest. |
+| `SQUIRREL_MEMORY_CACHE_DIR` | the OS cache directory | Where `squirrel-notes/memory-vectors-<id>.bin` is kept. |
+| `ONNXRUNTIME_NODE_INSTALL` | — | Set to `skip` so the runtime's install script fetches no GPU add-ons (Linux x64). |
+
+## What is logged
+
+Everything in the base package's list, plus one line at start-up: either
+*local embeddings ready*, or *were not loaded*, followed by a reason (`manifest`,
+`missing`, `integrity` or `runtime`) and, for the first three, a file name.
+After that, a line appears only if the runtime fails or the vector file cannot
+be written, and then only once. No line contains memory text, a query or a
+vector.
