+## Model: session-primary, daily-derived
+
+The **session is the primary atomic unit** — one session = one durable Cortex record (via
+`log_session`, keyed by `sessionId`), which is also the per-record privacy unit (`set_record_privacy`
+is per record). Any "what happened today / this week" view is a **derived rollup** over those session
+records, never a separately-authored primary. This mirrors records(atomic) → digests(derived); the
+personal `/log` skill follows the same shape against the local brain.

 ## When to use
 
-At the end of a Claude Code session, or after finishing a meaningful phase of work. Cortex already
-captures your sessions automatically in the background — this skill is the *deliberate* close-out: it
-produces a clean, structured summary and confirms the org received it.
