-Compact project memory and code evidence for Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and Gemini CLI.
+**Give every AI coding agent the same durable memory of your project.** Project Librarian keeps a compact, repo-local planning wiki — plus an optional code-evidence index — that Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and Gemini CLI read at session start, so they stop rediscovering your codebase from scratch every time.
 
-Project Librarian creates a repo-local planning wiki, compact startup hooks, and an optional SQLite code evidence index so agents can start with the project plan, route to the right document, and inspect code-backed evidence without repeatedly scanning the whole repository.

+## Quick Start
+
+Most users should ask their coding agent to run Project Librarian rather than run lifecycle commands by hand.
+
+Install the reusable skill files once, or ask an agent with shell access to do it:
+
+```bash
+npx project-librarian install-skill --scope user --agents all
+```
+
+Then ask Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, or Gemini CLI from the target repository:
+
+- "Use Project Librarian to set up this repository's planning wiki and run diagnostics."
+- "Use Project Librarian to migrate the existing docs/wiki content."
+- "Search the Project Librarian wiki for authentication decisions."
+
+The installed skill tells the agent to resolve the local runner and execute the right command from the project root. Prefer a project-local install only when you want that runner stored inside the target repository's agent setup:
+
+```bash
+npx project-librarian install-skill --scope project --agents all
+```
+
+`install-skill` only copies the reusable runner and skill files. The agent-run lifecycle command is what creates or updates `AGENTS.md`, agent hooks, `wiki/`, git hook files, diagnostics, and optional code-evidence support.
+
+## Highlights
+
+- **Small first read.** Session-start hooks inject only `wiki/startup.md` and `wiki/index.md`; agents route to deeper pages on demand instead of grepping the whole repo cold.
+- **One setup, four agents.** Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, and Gemini CLI share the same wiki-first contract, hooks, and rules.
+- **Structured wiki writing.** New project content is classified through `wiki/meta/document-taxonomy.md` before it is written or consolidated, so PRDs, policies, UX, data, APIs, QA, release, and operations notes do not collapse into one catch-all page.
+- **Measured, not hand-wavy.** Every performance claim comes from hermetic Codex benchmarks — and the cases where it costs *more* are shown right next to the wins.
+- **Optional code evidence.** A regenerable SQLite index plus answer-shaped MCP tools answer impact, ownership, and workspace-graph questions, with zero extra runtime dependencies.
+- **Safe to re-run.** Bootstrap is idempotent and preservation-first; diagnostics flag broken routes, unreachable pages, and stale truth before they mislead an agent.

 The core idea is not "write more docs." It is "keep the first agent read small, then give it reliable routes to deeper project truth and code evidence."
 
+The taxonomy is a routing aid, not a mandate to create every possible document. It is strongest for service and product development. Library, infrastructure, research, or other non-service projects can use only the relevant slices and leave the rest as intentionally unused categories instead of forcing artificial pages.
+
 ## Benchmark Results
 
-Benchmarks are maintainer release evidence, not a public user workflow. They exist so README and release notes can make bounded claims with numbers instead of vague performance language.
+These numbers are maintainer release evidence, not a blanket promise. Every value is real Codex JSONL usage and local wall-clock time (ChatGPT/Codex auth, `gpt-5.5`), measured hermetically — isolated Codex home, allowlist-only environment, clean tree, post-run fixture validation — with 3 measured runs plus 1 warmup per scenario against an `organic` control that has no Project Librarian.
+
+In the tables below, **"less" / "more"** compares cost-weighted tokens against that control, and **"faster" / "slower"** compares wall-clock time. (Cost-weighted = uncached input + 0.1 × cached input + output + reasoning output; cached resends are discounted, and raw merged totals would unfairly penalize any tool that adds a turn.) The wiki-routing track and the code-graph track are measured and reported separately — a win on one never backs a claim about the other. Generated benchmark reports under `benchmarks/reports/llm/` are ignored by default; maintainers should commit deliberate release baselines only when they are meant to support a public claim. Reproduce a release candidate with:
+
+```bash
+npm run benchmark:release
+```
+
+### Wiki track (planning-doc routing)
+
+Cost-weighted tokens, Project Librarian vs control:
+
+| Scale | decision_lookup | aggregation | multi_session (2nd session) |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| Small | 7.9% less | 7.0% more | 30.4% less |
+| Medium | 69.5% less | 8.8% more | 56.6% less |
+| Large (gate-passed retry) | 62.6% less | 45.0% less* | 70.7% less |
+
+The claim-grade cells (claim gate passed, every run correct) are the two large wins: `decision_lookup` (62.6% fewer cost-weighted tokens, 41.5% faster) and `multi_session` (70.7% fewer tokens, 33.9% faster). Published boundaries, not hidden: `aggregation` costs 7–9% *more* tokens at small/medium, aggregation is *slower* with the wiki at every scale even when tokens drop, and *the large aggregation figure (45.0% less) comes from a Stage 1 run whose gate failed on control-side correctness flakes, so it stays investigation evidence rather than a claim.
+
+### Code-graph track (code evidence index, real repositories)
+
+Measured on two SHA-pinned open-source repositories with hand-authored answer keys and the answer-shaped MCP tools injected into the hermetic Codex home. The claim gate passed with 30/30 runs correct after two evaluator false positives were fixed and the report was re-scored from raw JSONL; recompute-from-raw is the standing audit policy. Cost-weighted tokens, Project Librarian vs control:
+
+| Question | excalidraw (~1.2k files) | backstage (~11.8k files) |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| impact_trace | 117% more | **27.7% less** |
+| workspace_graph | 106% more | 2.6% less |
+| ownership_lookup | — | 99% more |
+
+The claim is a scale crossover, and the losses are published next to the win: on the 11.8k-file repository the tool wins the expensive traversal question (impact_trace 27.7% fewer cost-weighted tokens, 24.5% fewer scan bytes) and breaks even on the workspace graph, but everything loses on the small repository and cheap lookups (CODEOWNERS ownership) lose at every measured scale. In short, the code-evidence index pays off only on genuinely large repositories for expensive-traversal questions — exactly what the CLI's scale-aware gates encode: below ~5k indexable files, `--code-index` asks for explicit acknowledgement and bootstrap skips MCP auto-registration, citing these measurements.
+
+### What the benchmark names mean
 
-Current local measured report: `benchmarks/reports/llm/current-local.json` and `benchmarks/reports/llm/current-local.md`, generated 2026-06-10 with ChatGPT/Codex auth, `gpt-5.5`, `decision_lookup`, 1 measured run per condition, no warmup. These values are real Codex JSONL usage and local wall-clock measurements. Positive deltas mean the Project Librarian condition used more than the no-Project-Librarian control.

+- **excalidraw** — a real open-source whiteboard/diagramming app (~1.2k files); the small-repo data point.
+- **backstage** — Spotify's open-source developer-portal platform (~11.8k files); the large-repo data point.
 
-Claim boundary: this approved local run passed the benchmark claim gate, but it is not a clean release baseline. It used a dirty worktree, one run per condition, and post-run fixture fingerprint validation needs a clean isolated rerun because runtime state files touched the generated fixture directories. Do not claim token or time improvement from Project Librarian until repeated clean actual-LLM runs show stable deltas.

+## Code Evidence MCP Server
+
+`project-librarian mcp` runs a hand-rolled stdio MCP server (JSON-RPC 2.0 over newline-delimited JSON, no extra runtime dependencies) that serves the existing `.project-wiki` code-evidence index read-only. It exposes answer-shaped tools — `code_impact`, `code_ownership` (CODEOWNERS last-match precedence), `code_workspace_graph`, `code_search`, and `code_status` — whose responses lead with a one-line answer, follow with compact path/symbol/signature evidence, cap each reply, and prepend a warning when `code_status` reports the index is stale.
+
+Bootstrap registers the server for Claude Code (`.mcp.json`), Cursor (`.cursor/mcp.json`), and Gemini CLI (`mcpServers` in `.gemini/settings.json`), preserving any existing servers and keys and reporting `exists` on a re-run. When the repository contains a local runner the registration uses `node <runner> mcp`; otherwise it uses the installed `project-librarian mcp` binary.
+
+Codex registers MCP servers at the user level only (`codex mcp add`), so bootstrap does not write a project-level Codex MCP config. To use the server with Codex, run it once per machine:
+
+```bash
+codex mcp add project-librarian -- node .codex/skills/project-librarian/dist/init-project-wiki.js mcp
+```

 ## How It Works
 
 1. Bootstrap creates a preservation-first wiki structure and marker-bounded agent instruction sections.
 2. Session-start hooks inject only `wiki/startup.md` and `wiki/index.md`, with character budgets.
-3. Detailed planning truth stays in canonical, decision, source, and meta pages that agents read on demand.
-4. `--refresh-index` routes newly discovered wiki pages; large route sets are split into `wiki/indexes/auto-*.md` scoped routers.
-5. `--code-index` creates a disposable SQLite evidence cache under `.project-wiki/`.
-6. `--code-report`, `--code-impact`, `--code-search-symbol`, and `--code-query` expose code-backed evidence for planning updates.
-7. Diagnostics report broken links, duplicate routes, orphan pages, stale pages, missing TL;DRs, evidence gaps, and migration policy violations.

+9. Diagnostics report broken links, duplicate routes, orphan pages, stale pages, missing TL;DRs, evidence gaps, and migration policy violations.
+
+Migration is intentionally review-first. `--migrate` preserves an existing `wiki/` as `wiki_legacy*`, skips form-only/template legacy files, splits mixed legacy pages into meaning units, classifies each unit through the document taxonomy, and writes review files under `wiki/migration/`:
+
+- `inventory.md` records migratable legacy markdown files, file-level classification, and form-only/template files skipped from semantic migration.
+- `unit-map.md` records each heading, paragraph, list item, table row, and code block with its suggested taxonomy area and target page.
+- `split-plan.md` groups those units by suggested new wiki target, so one legacy page that mixes API specs, features, UX, QA, policy, or operations can be rewritten into separate files.
+- `coverage.md` is the editable status ledger for each unit: pending, adopted, merged, superseded, rejected, resolved, or needs-human-review.
+- `verification.md` and `review.md` summarize coverage and semantic completion after `--review-migration`.
+
+`--migration-lint` validates that `coverage.md`, `unit-map.md`, and `split-plan.md` still account for the current migration batch, including duplicate/stale unit IDs, invalid storage/confidence/status values, split count drift, target drift, and old coverage-table schemas. When a legacy page has units that point to multiple targets, `--review-migration` will not let a file-level inbox status complete every unit; unit-level coverage must be resolved instead.
 
-Migration is intentionally review-first. `--migrate` preserves an existing `wiki/` as `wiki_legacy*`, writes migration inboxes and a unit-level coverage ledger, and restructures legacy meaning into the current wiki rules. Retained or copied legacy content is acceptable when it fits the new wiki policy and structure; the new wiki must not depend on citing `wiki_legacy*`.
