+## What's New in v2.0.0
+
+v2.0.0 is a major integration release. Skills and agents now register with Claude Code's runtime systems — they show up in `/skills` and `/agents`, not just as files on disk.
+
+**Claude Code Runtime Integration**
+
+- Skills use directory format (`skill-name/SKILL.md`) and register with `/skills`
+- Agents include `description` frontmatter and register with `/agents`
+- Run `worclaude doctor` to verify everything is wired up correctly
+
+**Conditional Skills**
+
+- 6 skills activate only when relevant files are touched (testing, security, frontend, backend, verification, project-patterns)
+- 8 skills stay always-loaded for cross-cutting guidance
+- Saves context window budget by keeping domain-specific guidance out of unrelated work
+
+**Agent Enhancements**
+
+- Read-only agents blocked from file modifications via `disallowedTools`
+- Background execution for long-running agents (verify-app, build-validator, e2e-runner)
+- Turn limits (`maxTurns`) prevent runaway token consumption
+- Persistent memory for agents that learn across sessions (test-writer, security-reviewer, doc-writer)
+
+**New Content**
+
+- Coordinator-mode skill for multi-agent orchestration patterns
+- Optional MEMORY.md template for Claude Code's memory system
+- Enhanced verify-app agent with structured verdicts and adversarial probe requirements
+- Per-tech-stack permission presets (16 languages)
+
+**Upgrade Migration**
+
+- `worclaude upgrade` auto-migrates v1.x projects: flat skills → directory format, agents get required frontmatter
+- `worclaude doctor` detects old formats and missing fields
+
+See the [Claude Code Integration guide](https://sefaertunc.github.io/Worclaude/guide/claude-code-integration) for technical details.

+## Drift and Verification
+
+- Memory records become stale over time. Before acting on a memory, verify it against the current state of the codebase.
+- If a memory names a file path, check the file still exists. If it names a function or flag, grep for it.
+- If a recalled memory conflicts with current information, trust what you observe now — update or remove the stale memory.
+- "The memory says X exists" is not the same as "X exists now."
+
 ## What NOT to save here
 
 - Code patterns, architecture, file paths — derivable from current project state
