v1.0.100 — Unified Persistent Memory & Timeline Search

Context-mode now remembers across compactions and sessions. Skills, roles, decisions, and session history survive context resets — no more re-explaining what you were working on.

Unified Timeline Search

ctx_search gains a new sort="timeline" mode that searches across 3 sources chronologically:

  1. Current session (ContentStore) — tool outputs, indexed content
  2. Prior sessions (SessionDB) — events from the last 7 days
  3. Auto-memory (memory/*.md files) — persistent user preferences
ctx_search(queries: ["what were we working on"], sort: "timeline")

Results are tagged by origin and timestamp:

--- [prior-session | 2026-04-27 14:30 | decision] ---
### [decision] user_correction
Always push to next branch, never feature branches

--- [auto-memory | 2026-04-25 | memory/project_analytics.md] ---
Analytics must be separate project, Datadog model

Default sort="relevance" is unchanged — zero behavior change for existing users.

Auto-Injection on Compaction

When context compacts, context-mode now automatically injects critical state as behavioral directives — not informational summaries the LLM ignores:

  • <behavioral_directive> — active role ("You are acting as a senior engineer")
  • <rules> — key decisions ("DO NOT use mocks in integration tests")
  • <active_skills> — loaded skills ("Re-invoke if relevant: tdd, cloudflare")

500 token hard cap. Fires only on compaction. No mid-session injection.

12 New Event Categories

Phase 1 (session continuity)

Category What it captures
user-prompt Every user message, ordered — "what was my first prompt?"
compaction Pre-compaction summary + session state
rejected-approach Denied/modified tool calls — "why didn't we do X?"
session-resume Proof that prior session was resumed
constraint Discovered limitations — "FTS5 doesn't support ALTER"

Phase 2 (correlation & analytics)

Category What it captures
agent-finding Subagent research result summaries
error-resolution Error → diagnosis → fix chains
external-ref Referenced URLs, issues, PRs
blocked-on Pending blockers and their resolution
iteration-loop Stuck loop detection (same tool repeated)
latency Tool call duration (cross-hook timing)

Bug Fixes

  • Role events silently droppedsnapshot.ts was missing case "role" in the switch statement. Roles now survive compaction.
  • Skill priority too low — promoted from P3 to P2 so skills aren't evicted during snapshot trimming.
  • Pi extension filter too aggressiveminPriority: 2 dropped all P3 events (skills, roles, git, errors). Changed to minPriority: 3.

Static Reinforcement

  • 12 adapter configs updated with Memory section — 4 tiers based on hook support
  • Routing block gains <session_continuity> tag + 0. MEMORY in tool hierarchy
  • ctx_search tool description includes SESSION STATE reminder
