+## Model reasoning
+
+The interactive model picker continues to a reasoning picker. Escape returns to the
+model list without changing the active configuration. `/reasoning` adjusts the
+current model; `/reasoning low` and `--reasoning low` select an explicit level.
+Supported values are `default`, `none`, `minimal`, `low`, `medium`, `high`, `xhigh`
+and `max`, but only adapter-declared levels are offered or accepted for that model.
+`default` sends no override. Adapters without an explicit level inventory show
+only `default`; a generic reasoning capability does not establish supported levels.
+Higher effort can increase latency and token consumption. No effort is silently
+lowered. The composer displays the setting. Onboarding stores it in the personal
+profile; conversation runs persist it for resume. Switching models resets the
+selection unless a new level is chosen. Explicit CLI configuration wins over a
+profile. Active or approval-pending runs retain their original configuration.
+
+Reviewed edits with missing read references can reuse a rejected candidate via
+`retryToolCallId` after a successful reread, optionally specifying `createPaths`
+for genuinely new files. The runtime rebinds references and requests approval for
+the complete edit. Candidates are bounded to four / 1 MiB per invocation; durable
+validation-failed calls seed recovery on resume. Unknown or unavailable candidates
+require a fresh proposal. Explicit digests are never silently refreshed, and
+stale files remain rejected. No edit occurs merely by retaining a candidate.
+
+Qwen requests replay the local conversation instead of retaining a remote response
+chain. This makes compacted context and current system guidance authoritative.
+Reasoning and tool payloads remain intact; local replay does not guarantee a

+### Activity and queued tasks
+
+`/activity` shows a bounded in-memory history of tool outcomes, approvals and applied
+file receipts; `/activity clear` clears it. `/queue` lists tasks submitted while the
+agent was busy, and `/queue clear` clears tasks and the unsent draft. Enter queues,
+Alt+Enter adds a newline, Up retrieves the last queued task from an empty background
+draft, and Ctrl+C cancels the operation and clears the queue. Queued slash text is
+always a literal task, never an approval command. Pending approvals pause delivery.
+The queue is limited to eight tasks / 256 KiB; each draft is limited to 64 KiB.
+
+Activity shows phase and total elapsed time. Preparing edits, waiting for approval,
+applied file changes and verification are distinct states. `/diff` reviews workspace
+changes, including changes outside the current run; file receipts identify mutations
+recorded by this harness.

RC13 reads both formats and verifies the same logical checksum before import. Older versions cannot read segmented exports. File I/O and checksum serialization are incremental; the public backup/import APIs still hydrate the complete logical bundle in memory. Segmented files have no aggregate 64 MiB ceiling. A state-limit failure records a bounded terminal diagnostic on the last durable checkpoint; the unsaved payload is not claimed as preserved.

 ## Provider handoff safety
 
 Every console turn preallocates a new run ID and binds it permanently to one provider/model. Provider or model changes take effect only on the next run and are blocked while an approval is pending. Before transferring context to another provider/model, the console creates a bounded deterministic redacted summary: text is truncated and common credentials are removed, while tool inputs, outputs, and provider payloads are replaced by tool/type names.

+Requirements: Bun 1.4.0+, Node.js 22.13.0+, and Git on macOS or Linux. After protected 1.2.0 publication, this installs the stable artifact in a temporary consumer, without building the source checkout or changing global tools:
 
 ```bash
 harness_demo_dir=$(mktemp -d)
 cd "$harness_demo_dir"
 printf '{"name":"harness-first-run","private":true}\n' > package.json
-bun add --exact --ignore-scripts @zhivex-ai/harness@1.2.0-rc.8

 ./node_modules/.bin/zhx --help
 ./node_modules/.bin/zhx doctor --provider openai --json
 ```
 
-Version must print `1.2.0-rc.8`; help lists commands. Doctor does not contact a provider. Without `OPENAI_API_KEY`, it reports the missing credential and exits with code `3`; inspect the JSON checks before proceeding. A directory without Git initialization can also produce a diagnostic warning. No paid model call is required for these checks. Both `zhx` and `zhivex-harness` are installed aliases; Bun manages installation, and their shebang runs Node.

 To continue in your actual project, use the [global installation and credential setup](../README.md#installation), then `zhx init --profile daily --provider openai` and `zhx doctor --profile daily`. Real tasks require the selected provider credential in the process environment. Profiles store provider/model choices, never credentials. See [CLI](../docs/CLI.md) and [support](../SUPPORT.md).
