 ## [Unreleased]
 
+### Changed
+- **Context budget** — thinned always-apply rules and `AGENTS.md` / `CLAUDE.md`; details stay in on-demand skills. `figma-token-setup.mdc` is no longer `alwaysApply`. Restore spawn of `session-handoff` is skipped when `handoff --restore` already printed a briefing.
+
+## [0.1.14] - 2026-08-13
+
+### Added
+- **`session-handoff` subagent** — mandatory restore at session start and persist at session exit (Amp: isolated `subagent-session-handoff`)
+- **`npx agent-orchestrator-kit handoff <name>`** — validates `handoff.md`, upserts `.cursor/memory.json` with an absolute path, prints an expanded self-contained next-thread prompt in `project.agent_language`
+- **`npx agent-orchestrator-kit memory-setup`** — installs `scripts/memory-mcp-launcher.cjs` and rewrites Cursor/Amp Memory MCP away from relative `MEMORY_FILE_PATH`
+- Always-apply rule `.agents/rules/session-handoff.mdc` with HARD STOP gates Amp cannot treat as optional
+
+### Changed
+- Next-session prompt is now a full operating brief (Done, Decisions, Blocked, attach, which subagent to spawn, Amp isolation, exit HARD STOP) so the next thread works even if Memory MCP is ignored
+- Amp `subagent-*` wrappers require STOP if spawn is unavailable instead of running specialist work in the main thread
+- Memory MCP examples and init/sync use the launcher instead of `npx` + relative path

-Every `/opsx:*` session reads `Change:<name>`, `Handoff:<name>`, and `Decision:*` before specialist work, falling back to `handoff.md` if Memory is unavailable.

+Every `/opsx:*` session restores via `npx agent-orchestrator-kit handoff --restore`, then Memory `Change:<name>`, `Handoff:<name>`, `Decision:*`, falling back to `handoff.md` if Memory is unavailable. At exit it MUST spawn `session-handoff`, write `handoff.md`, run `npx agent-orchestrator-kit handoff <name>` (upserts `.cursor/memory.json` with an absolute path), and paste the CLI stdout prompt. The prompt is self-contained — Amp often skips Memory MCP, so the next thread must be able to work from the pasted text alone. Never configure Memory with a relative `MEMORY_FILE_PATH`; use `scripts/memory-mcp-launcher.cjs` (`npx agent-orchestrator-kit memory-setup`). The next phase always starts in a new chat.

 ## Changelog
 
+### 0.1.14
+- **HARD STOP session handoff** — `session-handoff` subagent at start/exit; Amp isolated `subagent-session-handoff`
+- **`handoff` CLI** — writes `handoff.md`, upserts `.cursor/memory.json` with an absolute path, prints an expanded self-contained next-thread prompt
+- **`memory-setup` + `memory-mcp-launcher.cjs`** — never a relative `MEMORY_FILE_PATH` (Amp was reading the wrong graph)
+- Next-thread prompt includes role, spawn instructions, Done/Decisions/Blocked, and exit HARD STOP
+
 ### 0.1.13
 - Pipeline **conductor**: `/opsx:*` parent spawns the routed specialist and does not do that work itself
 - Five new stage subagents: `codebase-explorer`, `design-intake`, `spec-architect`, `spec-reviewer`, `spec-archiver`
