+
+```markdown
+---
+name: prefer-pnpm
+description: 这个仓库只用 pnpm，不用 npm
+metadata:
+  type: feedback
+---
+
+安装依赖一律用 pnpm。
+
+**Why:** 仓库只提交了 pnpm-lock.yaml，npm 会生成另一份锁文件。
+**How to apply:** 安装、增删依赖、跑脚本时都用 pnpm；参见 [[release-freeze]]。
+```
+
+- `metadata.type` 取 `user`（用户是谁）、`feedback`（对工作方式的纠正或认可）、`project`（仓库里没记录的进行中工作、目标、约束）、`reference`（外部资源指针）之一；也接受顶层 `type:`。
+- `feedback` 和 `project` 在正文后跟 **Why:** / **How to apply:** 两行，便于模型在边界情况自行判断。
+- `[[name]]` 指向顶层 `/memories/<name>.md`，所以只有顶层文件的 `name` 能直接解析。子目录里的记忆（如 `sub/foo.md`）即使 `name: foo` 也会提示：`[[foo]]` 指向的是 `/memories/foo.md`，不是 `sub/foo.md`；需要互链时请把记忆放在顶层，或自己在正文里写完整路径。链接到尚不存在的记忆仍然允许，表示“值得以后补写”。
+- frontmatter 不是强制的：缺字段、`name` 与文件名不一致、文件在子目录时照常写入，只在工具输出里列出问题。`create` 列出全部问题；`str_replace` / `insert` / `rename` 只列出这次改动新引入的问题**类型**，所以把一个非法值换成另一个非法值不会重复报。`name` 不是合法 kebab-case 时索引标题退回文件名；v0.3.0 遗留的非法标题（内容里的 `name` 仍是那个非法值时）会在下一次编辑或 rename 时按 legacy 标题识别并归一化。frontmatter 只解析扁平的 `key: value` 和一层 `metadata:`，不是完整 YAML。
+- 记忆文件名允许空格等空白字符；索引链接会写成 `[标题](<my note.md>)`，维护逻辑按行首链接的 target 精确匹配。说明或标题里的其他链接、`- [ ]` 任务列表不会被当成索引项。
+
 项目目录名与 DSH 的 session 目录规则一致（`--` + 路径转义 + `--`），所以 `~/.dsh/sessions/` 和 `~/.dsh/auto-memory/` 可以对照着看。
