+1. **One PR per feature.** Every feature or fix lands on its own branch (`feat/*`, `fix/*`) off `dev`. Never commit directly to `main`, `master`, or `dev`.
+2. **Per-phase subagent worktrees.** Every phase starts by dispatching multiple subagents, each in its own worktree, doing the work there. The orchestrator reconciles terminal results back into the feature branch. Execution model: one branch per ticket (`fix/T-xxx`), full gate per commit (`bun test` + `tsc --noEmit` + `bun run build`).

+4. **Docs upkeep.** Update CHANGELOG.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, and credits (package.json author/contributors, README credits) whenever required: behavioral changes, new dependencies, new contributors, process changes.

+## What changed
+
+- **Failure Attribution, Negative Mining & Compounding (Wave 22 / v3.0.0)**: Scoped failure attribution matching code anchors, affected paths, and reproduction commands with deduplicated per-session strikes and a dual-axis decaying strike counter (2 clean runs or 30 days) to prevent wrongful demotions; constitutional dispute immunity for constraints and timeless invariants; trajectory fix-pair mining discovering negative memories from Error ➔ Remediation sequences; active working set retrieval compounding via memoized `.memory/HOT.md` candidates with relevance-gated source bonuses; and LangMem sub-linear logarithmic frequency ranking with 2x application weighting ([docs/failure-attribution-and-negative-mining.md](docs/failure-attribution-and-negative-mining.md)).
+- **Graph, Provenance & Lineage Architecture (Wave 17)**: Write-time associative graph edge auto-seeding (`linked_memory_ids`), HyAtlas supersede-not-delete lifecycle with hidden-count-aware over-fetching, empirical observation-biased recall deduplication (`prefer_observations`), progressive multi-hop wikilink expansion after reciprocal rank fusion (`extractWikilinks`, `expandFusedWikilinks`), immutable semantic fact provenance append-only table (`fact_provenance` with triple-unique indexing), first-class relational lineage foreign keys (`supersedes_id`, `conflicts_with_id`), lineage BFS provenance DAG walker (`walkLineageBfs`), and tamper-evident cryptographic hash-chained audit ledger with per-day salt rotation and session Merkle tree checkpoints ([docs/graph-provenance-and-lineage.md](docs/graph-provenance-and-lineage.md)).
+- **Temporal Transitions, Contradiction Engine & Verbs (Wave 16)**: Bi-temporal validity tracking with explicit historical cessation flags (`valid_to_exact`), point-in-time `as_of` queries returning `{results, undetermined}` without date invention, five-verb lifecycle (`change`, `end`, `correct`, `revert`, `forget` with GDPR hard/soft tombstones), point-in-time `searchTemporal(atTime)` default-excluding superseded knowledge, keep-both `conflicts` table preserving contradictions without deletion, scoped invalidation requiring semantic `(entity, relation, target, scope)` alignment to prevent over-eager invalidations across environments, federation handshake protocol for mesh-mode conflict deduplication and resolution propagation, provenance veracity rank weighting (`user` 1.0, `agent` 0.7, `external` 0.5, `system` 0.3) with tie-breaker bonuses, and `src_ts` evidence-age stamping ensuring memory freshness never exceeds underlying evidence ([docs/temporal-contradiction-and-trust.md](docs/temporal-contradiction-and-trust.md)).
+- **Expiry, Decay & Confidence Hardening (Wave 15)**: Tokenizer-matched abstention gates (`evaluateAbstentionGate`), explicit `no_confident_match` mode eliminating model hallucination, materialized `decay_score` in SQLite with importance gating (0.4x to 3.0x), Bayesian corroboration confidence ($C(n) = 1 - 0.7^n$), trust-tier-keyed half-lives (T1 365d → T4 30d) defending against OWASP ASI06 poisoning, per-type admission `expires_at` defaults (fix 90d, op 180d, arch 365d, disc 30d), stamped `status: 'expired'`, `expired_at`, and `expired_by` rule tracking, pin-capable first-match-wins declarative expiry policy YAML (`.memory/expiry.yaml`), and optional Weibull hazard curve modeling ($R(t) = \exp(-(t/\lambda)^k)$) ([docs/expiry-decay-and-confidence.md](docs/expiry-decay-and-confidence.md)).
+- **Invalidation, Attribution & Ranking Rigor (Wave 14)**: Incremental `index.json` vector synchronization on `save()` and `deleteEntry()`, bounded Hebbian co-activation plasticity (8 seeds, 30 edges, 500 nodes), IDF-weighted symbol matching (generic verbs downweighted to 0.05, compound identifiers scored 1.0), Unicode word-boundary matching blocking false positives (`race⊂trace`, `port⊂report`), and explicit SQLite FTS failure degradation signals with `[FTS5_DEGRADED]` logging ([docs/retrieval-ranking-and-invalidation.md](docs/retrieval-ranking-and-invalidation.md)).
+- **Retrieval Performance & Hot-Path Hardening (Wave 13)**: Precomputed WeakMap token sets ($O(1)$ lookup), memoized runtime code-anchor verification, dirty-gated store loads (`count(*)` + `max(updated_at)` fingerprinting), input limit clamping, and `stale: boolean` provenance tags for degraded reads ([docs/retrieval-performance-and-limits.md](docs/retrieval-performance-and-limits.md)).
+- **Point-ID-Only Dry-Run Deletions**: Hardened destructive deletion commands (`memory delete`, `memory_delete`) defaulting to dry-run previews and blocking wildcard expressions to prevent accidental data loss.
+- **Real-Time Agency Hub (SSE)**: Fast event fan-out on `http://localhost:31338/events` for parallel agent swarms, featuring CSRF origin filtering and clean socket disposal (`memory daemon`).

-## 💡 What is Muse Memory? (TL;DR)
+## What Muse Memory does
 
-Most AI chatbots and coding assistants have **"goldfish memory"**: every time you close a session, switch tasks, or start a new prompt, they forget your project invariants, coding habits, and the hard-fought bug workarounds you solved yesterday.
+AI agents lose project context when a session ends. Muse Memory keeps that context on your machine, where your tools can retrieve it during the next task.
 
-**Muse Memory gives your AI assistants a persistent, self-organizing cognitive notebook directly on your machine.**
+Store working constraints, decisions, handoffs, and verified facts in one local memory layer. SQLite handles retrieval, while readable Markdown and YAML files keep the important context inspectable in Git.

 - 👤 **Persona & Style Grounding (`USER.md`)**: Configures your role (`developer`, `designer`, `marketer`, `casual`, `custom`) and communication preferences so AI models write code that matches your style.
 - 📐 **Real-Time Active Constraints (`CURRENT.md`)**: Bi-temporal working constraints and invariant tracking synchronized on every mutation to eliminate amnesia during task handoffs.
 - 💾 **SQLite Primary + Dual-Persisted YAML Mirror**: Sub-millisecond queries via SQLite with transparent human-readable `.yaml` files in `.memory/memories/` for seamless Git diffs.
 - ⚖️ **Token Knapsack Retrieval**: Multi-factor scoring (applicability, verification bonus, AST graph overlap, time decay, due date urgency) tightly packed under prompt token ceilings.
+- 🧭 **Optional Local Semantic Recall (`memory embed`)**: Point `retrieval.embedderUrl` at any OpenAI-compatible `/v1/embeddings` endpoint (llama.cpp server, Ollama, or hosted) to add a semantic cosine dimension to ranking. Embeddings are cached as float32 blobs inside SQLite, so nothing changes and no network call happens until you configure an endpoint.
 - 🌐 **Pluggable AST CodeGraph & Symbol Indexing**: Native CodeGraph & Graphify integration that indexes codebase AST symbols, auto-tags memories, and awards graph overlap bonuses.
 - 🌳 **Hierarchical Tree Retrieval & Progressive Disclosure**: Sharded tree partitions with 3-tier progressive disclosure (`L1` abstracts, `L2` summaries, `L3` full context) for massive knowledge bases.
 - 📚 **Obsidian Markdown Wiki & Entity Graph Compiler**: Dual-persistence knowledge compounding compiling linked Markdown pages (`wiki/concepts/`, `wiki/entities/`) with bidirectional `[[wikilinks]]`.
 - 🛡️ **Vibeguard Zero-Leakage Secret Scanner**: Regex-powered memory defense intercepting and rejecting API keys, AWS credentials, private keys, database URIs, and passwords before writes.

 The engine greedily packs ranked memories up to the requested `--token-budget` to guarantee zero prompt overflow.
 
+When a local embedder is configured (`retrieval.embedderUrl`), a semantic cosine dimension (`0.5 ×` cosine similarity) joins the ranking, so paraphrases match even without shared trigrams.
