 - **Layered memory retrieval** mirrors human memory patterns
 - **Layer 1 (Index)**: See what observations exist with token costs at session start
 - **Layer 2 (Details)**: Fetch full narratives on-demand via MCP search
@@ -222,21 +237,25 @@ See [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md) for complete version history.
 - **Type indicators**: Visual cues (🔴 critical, 🟤 decision, 🔵 informational) highlight observation importance
 
 ### Automatic Memory
+
 - Context automatically injected when Claude starts
 - No manual commands or configuration needed
 - Works transparently in the background
 
 ### Full History Search
+
 - Search across all sessions and observations
 - FTS5 full-text search for fast queries
 - Citations link back to specific observations
 
 ### Structured Observations
+
 - AI-powered extraction of learnings
 - Categorized by type (decision, bugfix, feature, etc.)
 - Tagged with concepts and file references
 
 ### Multi-Prompt Sessions
+
 - Sessions span multiple user prompts
 - Context preserved across `/clear` commands
 - Track entire conversation threads
