+# Core Requirements Registry (MindForge v6.5.0)
+
+This registry contains the canonical requirements that all autonomous reasoning waves must align with. This file is parsed by the `ReasonSourceAligner` (RSA).
+
+## [REQ-001] Component Isolation
+
+All newly created engine components must be contained within the `bin/engine/` directory and follow a single-responsibility modular architecture.
+
+## [REQ-002] Intelligence-Drift Coupling (IDC)
+
+The system must proactively detect "logic loops" or reasoning stagnation and trigger compute resource upgrades (MIR tier elevation) when drift exceeds a critical threshold.
+
+## [REQ-003] Context Entropy Guard (CEG)
+
+The framework must actively suppress redundant reasoning thoughts (>85% similarity) and compress stagnant loops into high-density semantic digests before session handoff.
+
+## [REQ-004] Reason-Source Alignment (RSA)
+
+Every reasoning thought in an autonomous wave must be traceable back to at least one REQUIREMENT ID. Waves with <60% alignment must be flagged for refocusing.
+
+## [REQ-005] Zero-Trust Verification
+
+Implementation plans must include a verification phase with automated shell scripts or browser-based UAT to confirm success before claiming feature completion.

+## [6.5.0] - 2026-04-08
+
+### Added (v6.5.0: Reason-Source Alignment - RSA)
+
+- **Requirement-to-Thought Mapping**: Integrated `ReasonSourceAligner` into the core Auto-Runner loop.
+- **Mission Fidelity Tracking**: Every reasoning thought is now cross-referenced with `REQUIREMENTS.md` and tagged with a best-match REQ-ID.
+- **Mission Drift Detection**: Real-time monitoring of "Mission Alignment" confidence scores to prevent autonomous side-questing.
+- **Requirement Schema**: Established formal `[REQ-ID]` Markdown schema for project specs.
+
+---
+
+## [6.4.0] - 2026-04-08
+
+### Added (v6.4.0: Context Entropy Guard - CEG)
+
+- **Context Entropy Guard (CEG)**:
+  - Implemented `context-entropy-guard.js` for active noise suppression and context pruning.
+  - Added semantic compression to `HandoverManager`, automatically summarizing stagnant reasoning loops into digests.
+  - Hardened Nexus Bundles against "Reasoning Entropy" (similarity-based token bloat).
+
+---
+
 ## [6.3.0] - 2026-04-08
