 The reads are kept in your own runtime folder on this machine, never in a repository.
 
+### Ask first, read in full only when something changed
+
+A read of Calendar, Jira, work assigned to you or Your tools first asks the tool one short question: did anything change since the last read? If nothing changed, the read keeps what PMOS already stored and only moves its read time to now. If something changed, it reads in full as before. Once a day the read is always in full, because a question about changes can miss something, such as a meeting that moved into the next 14 days.
+
+When two or more of these reads are due at the same minute, they run in one session, one after another, instead of one session each. A read that the session did not save is written as failed, with that reason, and is tried again like any failed read.
+
+The skills use these commands:
+
+- `pmos refresh since <source>` says **ask first** or **read in full**, with the reason and the time of the last read. `<source>` is calendar, jira, mywork or tools.
+- `pmos refresh same <source>` keeps the stored read as it is and moves its read time to now. For Your tools, `--only slack,mail` confirms only those tools. It refuses when a read in full is due.
+
+Each read that ends also records, in the refresh log, whether it brought anything new (`change`: first, same or changed) and whether it read in full or asked first (`how`). PMOS measures this on the facts it stored, such as each event's time and title or each ticket's status, and not on the words Claude wrote. Nothing on the pages shows it yet; it measures how often each source really changes.
+
 ## Where you see it
 
 Each page shows a short line that says when each source was last read, for example **Initiatives read 08:02 · Calendar read 07:15 · Jira status read 06:31**. On a screen wider than 600 pixels, the line is folded into one dot next to the date. The dot is amber and says how many sources are not read, for example **2 sources not read**, or it says **Sources read**. Press the dot to show the full line, and press it again to fold it. The line never says that the data is up to date, because the agents read these sources on a schedule and not live.

+ *   - no read time (read_at, fetched_at, timestamp, "Read from Jira at …"): a read of the same data an hour later is the same read;
+ *   - no text Claude wrote (a card's ask, a mention's gist, a digest's decisions, a sprint summary): Claude words the same facts a
+ *     little differently each time, and a new wording is not new data.
+ * So two reads have the same fingerprint exactly when the tool said the same thing. `n` is how many records the hash covers.
+ *
+ * Calendar, Jira and work assigned to you store a whole snapshot each read, so a read is 'changed' when its hash differs (a meeting
+ * that was cancelled is a change). Your tools store only what is new since the last read, so an empty read after a full one is not
+ * a change: their fingerprint also carries `keys`, one short hash per item, and a read is 'changed' only when it holds a key the
+ * last read did not.

+ *
+ *   since(runtime, source, dirs, now)        → { source, last_read_at, full_at, verdict: 'ask'|'full', why, minutes?, tools? }
+ *   same(runtime, source, dirs, now, {only}) → { ok, stamped: [what] } | { ok: false, error }

+ *   SOURCES · FULL_MS · FILE
+ *     dirs { jira: <repository state>/tracker/jira }   (Jira only)
+ *
+ * THE FLOW. A read skill runs `pmos refresh since <source>` first. With verdict 'ask' it asks the tool one cheap question: what changed
+ * since `last_read_at` (an updated-since search, a newer-than filter). When the tool says nothing changed, the skill runs
+ * `pmos refresh same <source>` and stops: the stored read is kept as it is, and only its read time moves to now, so Sources, the
+ * Briefing and the freshness rows know it was checked. When anything changed, or the verdict is 'full', the skill does its full read.
+ *
+ * THE SAFETY RULE. A question about changes can miss something (a meeting that moved into the 14 days, a ticket that left a search).
+ * So a full read is due when the last full read is older than FULL_MS, or there is none, and `same` refuses then: the skill reads
+ * in full. The last full read is `full_at` in <runtime>/refresh-state.json, which lib/refresh-run.js writes when a read ends that was
+ * not confirmed with `same`.
+ *
+ * FILES. `same` writes the read time of the stored read (calendar-import/read.json, my-work/read.json, source-reads/<tool>.json, the
+ * modified time of the Jira snapshots) and one line per source in <runtime>/refresh-probe.json: { <source>: { same_at, only? } }.
