 ## How it works
 
 The payload lives in exactly one file: [`rules/preferences.md`](rules/preferences.md).
+Every harness now reads it live, out of the plugin directory, at or near session
+start — upgrading the plugin *is* upgrading the policy, with no render-to-disk
+step in between.
 
-Cursor reads that file natively as an always-apply rule. Every other harness
-gets it through its global instruction file, written by
-[`scripts/leo-install.py`](scripts/leo-install.py) into a marker block:
-
-```
-<leos-agent version="10.7.2">
-...the payload...
-</leos-agent>
-```
-
-Updating replaces that block and nothing else, so anything you wrote in those
-files by hand survives an upgrade untouched. The script writes only when the
-bytes actually differ, so running it twice is a no-op, and it writes through a
-temporary file and an atomic rename, so an interrupted run cannot leave a
-half-written instruction file behind.
-
-If it ever finds markers it cannot pair — an opener with no closer, a stray
-closer, two blocks — it refuses to touch that file and tells you what to fix.
-Guessing there would mean deleting whatever sits between the markers, which is
-exactly the content it exists to protect.
+Cursor reads that file directly as an always-apply rule; it was the model for
+everything that follows. Every other harness runs
+[`scripts/emit_payload.py`](scripts/emit_payload.py), which strips the
+frontmatter, renders this machine's [routing](#per-machine-model-routing)
+stanza, and prints the result — the trigger and the plumbing differ by harness:
 
-| Harness | Global file the installer writes |
-|---|---|
-| Claude Code | `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` (the `leo-runner` / `leo-executor` agents need no installer step — the plugin's `agents/` directory delivers them) |
-| Codex | `~/.codex/AGENTS.md` (plus `~/.codex/agents/leo-runner.toml` and `leo-executor.toml`) |
-| Cursor | none — the plugin's always-apply rule delivers it |
-| Hermes | `~/.hermes/SOUL.md` (edited only if it already exists) |
-| Pi | `~/.pi/agent/AGENTS.md` |
-| OpenCode | `~/.config/opencode/AGENTS.md` (plus copied skills and commands) |
-
-**The installer is per-harness and manual.** Running it inside Codex installs Codex and
-nothing else; it never writes to another harness's files behind your back, and
-it never runs on its own at session start. Install the plugin, then run the
-installer once in that harness.
+| Harness | How the payload arrives | What the installer still does |
+|---|---|---|
+| Claude Code | a `SessionStart` hook (`hooks/hooks.json`, auto-discovered) runs `emit_payload.py`; its stdout becomes session context | nothing for the payload — `agents/` ships `leo-runner`/`leo-executor` directly; only cleans up a `<leos-agent>` block a pre-11.0 install left in `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` |
+| Codex | the same `hooks/hooks.json` entry — Codex auto-discovers it too, aliasing `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}` to its own plugin root | writes `~/.codex/agents/leo-runner.toml` and `leo-executor.toml`, since Codex plugins cannot ship agent definitions; cleans up a legacy `~/.codex/AGENTS.md` block |
+| Cursor | native — `rules/preferences.md` read straight off the plugin directory as an always-apply rule | writes `~/.cursor/rules/leos-agent-routing.mdc`, only when routing is configured for Cursor |
+| Hermes | `register(ctx)` in `__init__.py` calls `ctx.register_system_prompt_section("leos-agent", ..., position="after_memory")` — rendered once per session and frozen, so it never invalidates the cache mid-session | cleans up a legacy `~/.hermes/SOUL.md` block; `SOUL.md` itself is never written any more |
+| Pi | `pi-extension.js` appends `emit_payload.py`'s output to the system prompt on `before_agent_start`, which fires every *turn*, not once per session — the one harness that pays a spawn per turn rather than per session — and contributes `skills/` via `resources_discover` | cleans up a legacy `~/.pi/agent/AGENTS.md` block |
+| OpenCode | a one-time `"instructions": ["<plugin-root>/rules/preferences.md"]` line in `~/.config/opencode/opencode.json`, read at startup | copies skills and commands into `~/.config/opencode/skills/` and `commands/` (OpenCode's JS-only plugin API cannot register those); prints the `instructions` line and reports it outstanding until it's present — the file is JSONC with your comments in it, so the installer never edits it itself; cleans up a legacy `~/.config/opencode/AGENTS.md` block |
+
+**The `<leos-agent version="...">` marker block still exists**, but only for
+migration and uninstall now — nothing writes it on a fresh install. Malformed
+markers are still refused rather than guessed at: an opener with no closer, a
+stray closer, two blocks all stop the run and tell you what to fix, because
+guessing would mean deleting whatever sits between them. Where a pre-11.0
+install left a block behind, a normal run strips it and reports `migrated`,
+preserving whatever surrounding text you wrote by hand; `--uninstall` does the
+same cleanup, so either command clears the leftover.
+
+Determinism is part of the contract, not an implementation detail: two runs of
+`emit_payload.py` must produce byte-identical output, or the session's cached
+prompt prefix stops being cacheable and every session pays a full cold write —
+so nothing in the render path may read the clock, an absolute path, or git
+state. It also fails open, silently, on stdout: any error prints nothing, exits
+0, and leaves a breadcrumb in `$LEOS_AGENT_LOCAL_PATH/emit-payload.log` instead
+of injecting a traceback into the session as context.
 
 Requires Python 3.9+ and macOS, Linux, or WSL. No symlinks are used anywhere —
 installs are real clones and copies.
 
+## Multi-surface and cloud reach
+
+"One install per harness" undersells how many surfaces a single install
+reaches — and where it doesn't:
+
+- **Claude Code's CLI, VS Code extension, JetBrains plugin, and desktop local
+  sessions share `~/.claude`.** The VS Code docs describe plugin management as
+  using "the same CLI commands under the hood," and the JetBrains plugin runs
+  the `claude` CLI rather than bundling its own — one `claude plugin install`
+  reaches all four.
+- **Claude Code cloud/web sessions do not** — `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` is
+  documented as not carried into them, so the old block-injection design never
+  reached the web at all. The plugin route does: declare `leos-agent` under
+  `enabledPlugins` in the repo's `.claude/settings.json` and it installs at
+  session start. That is a real gain of this design — the policy reaches cloud
+  for the first time.
+- **Desktop WSL sessions have no plugin support**; SSH sessions read the
+  *remote* host's `~/.claude`, so the plugin needs installing on each SSH
+  target separately — a local install does not follow you there.
+- **The desktop Cowork tab is a separate, account-synced config surface** and
+  will not see a CLI install.
+- **Codex's IDE extension does not support plugins at all**, though it does
+  read `~/.codex/AGENTS.md` and the installed agent TOMLs — so a migrated
+  instruction file and the agent profiles still reach it; the live hook
+  delivery does not.
+- **Cursor Cloud Agents do not see plugin-shipped rules.** User Rules are
+  account-synced and do reach them; a plugin's rules live on local disk and
+  stop there.
+- **Hermes profiles and OpenCode's `OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR` each create a second,
+  invisible config scope** — a plugin installed under one is invisible under
+  the other.
+
+Upgrades need a new session almost everywhere: Claude Code's
+`/reload-plugins` or a VS Code restart banner, Codex "start a new session,"
+Cursor's Reload Window, Hermes a restart or `/restart`, OpenCode only rereads
+its config at startup.

+`11.202609070.0+codex.local-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS` and re-add. Either way, plugin changes only
 reach a **new** session or thread.
 
 `--check` exits non-zero when a file is out of date, and `--force` replaces a
 copied file that something else has since overwritten.
 
-To release: bump the version in `package.json`, the three `plugin.json` files,
-`.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`, `plugin.yaml`, and every mention in this
-README (the uninstall commands embed it in cache paths — `check.py` fails on any
-stale one); run `scripts/check.py`; then push a `v`-prefixed tag.
+To release: the pre-commit hook has already stamped the version via
+`scripts/bump.py` on your latest commit if `core.hooksPath` is set up as
+above. Otherwise run it by hand:
+
+```bash
+python3 scripts/bump.py
+```
+
+That rewrites every `major.minor.patch` string it owns — `package.json`, the
+three `plugin.json` files, `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`, `plugin.yaml`,
+and every mention in this README, including the uninstall commands' cache
+paths — in one pass; `scripts/check.py` still fails the build on any stale
+one it finds. Then push a `v`-prefixed tag matching that version.
 
 Pushing that tag is the whole release. `.github/workflows/release.yml` runs the
 tests and both checks, refuses a tag that disagrees with `package.json`,
