+marker, so several agent panes can be told apart), the persona's unread-mail count when
+[kijito-inbox-monitor](https://github.com/KijitoAI/kijito-inbox-monitor) 0.5.7 or later is running and
+has recorded one in the last 10 minutes (shown only when it is above zero), the model, and the context
+window in use. The picture is rendered from the script's real output by
+`scripts/render-statusline-svg.py`, and a test fails if the two disagree.
+
 The two skills are conveniences, not the only way in: an agent can run the same catch-up and
 curation by hand from a few prompts. They are packaged as skills because that makes them simple to
 drop into `~/.claude/skills/` and invoke the same way everywhere.

+## [0.5.7] - 2026-09-25
+
+### Added
+- **The state file carries the watched persona's unread count (row M309).** The producer read every persona's
+  unread count from `/api/notify/pending` each poll and kept it only in memory, so nothing local - a status
+  line, a health check - could show one. Each poll that had a count now writes it as `unread` (a
+  non-negative integer); a poll that had no count writes no `unread`, so its absence means unknown, never
+  zero. It is written with the fast path on or off. Nothing in the producer reads it back to decide what to
+  emit. It is read as strictly as the other persisted fields: anything but a non-negative integer makes the
+  file CORRUPT. Files written by older versions, which lack the field, load as before.
