 History of changes to the `ai-lens` CLI package on npm. New entries go on top. Format: `## X.Y.Z — YYYY-MM-DD`, followed by user-facing bullets.
 
+## 0.8.114 — 2026-07-01
+- fix(client): normalize Windows /c:/ drive paths so Cursor git metadata is captured
+- feat(team-memory): SessionStart recall + injection (T6)
+- feat(cli): `ai-lens local-server up|down|status` — one-command private local server
+- feat(dx): local-first compose, npx docs, DATA_DIR-aware config path
+- fix(import): read Cursor CLI store WAL — fix `no such table: meta`
+- fix(import): surface missing identity in cursor --dry-run + name hint
+- feat(client): nudge old-Node Cursor users to upgrade so import cursor works
+- feat(import): add `ai-lens import cursor` (IDE + CLI), at parity with claude-code
+- feat(cli): --use-repo-path implies --project-hooks
+- fix(cli): make --no-hooks an inert deprecated no-op so /setup installs hooks
+
+## 0.8.113 — 2026-06-24
+- feat: track working-directory changes mid-session (Claude Code `CwdChanged`) so events are attributed to the project you `cd` into, not the one you started in
+- feat: capture the assistant's response text and thinking from the Claude Code transcript, not just token counts — the full turn-by-turn dialogue is now recorded
+
 ## 0.8.112 — 2026-06-23
 - feat: re-running `init --yes` no longer changes your MCP registration. On an already-set-up install it's left exactly as-is — if MCP is registered it stays (same scope), if it isn't it's left off — instead of being removed-and-re-added at user scope (which could migrate its scope, force it on, or drop it if the re-add failed). Fresh installs still register MCP; use `init --mcp-only` to deliberately (re)register.

+### Private local server (your data stays on your machine)
+
+For a private trial or solo use — your sessions never leave your machine. **Prerequisite: Docker Desktop** (on Windows, with WSL2). Then one command stands up a local server (Postgres+pgvector + app) and offers to point the client at it:
+
+```bash
+npx -y ai-lens local-server up      # check Docker → pull → start → wait healthy → offer `init`
+#   → server at http://localhost:3000
+npx -y ai-lens local-server status  # container + health status
+npx -y ai-lens local-server down    # stop (add --purge to also delete the data volume)
+```
+
+It uses **public images only** (`pgvector/pgvector:pg16` + `ghcr.io/r-ms/ai-lens/app`) — no login, no build. The server runs in personal (self-host) mode and attributes events by git identity, so set BOTH (the server 400s without name):
+
+```bash
+git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
+git config --global user.name  "Your Name"
