* fix: Critical ROI tracking fixes from PR review
Addresses critical findings from PR #111 review:
1. **Fixed incorrect discovery token calculation** (src/services/worker/SDKAgent.ts)
- Changed from passing cumulative total to per-response delta
- Now correctly tracks token cost for each observation/summary
- Captures token state before/after response processing
- Prevents all observations getting inflated cumulative values
2. **Fixed schema version mismatch** (src/services/sqlite/SessionStore.ts)
- Changed ensureDiscoveryTokensColumn() from version 11 to version 7
- Now matches migration007 definition in migrations.ts
- Ensures consistent version tracking across migration system
These fixes ensure ROI metrics accurately reflect token costs.

* refactor: Reduce continuation prompt token usage by 95 lines
Removed redundant instructions from continuation prompt that were originally
added to mitigate a session continuity issue. That issue has since been
resolved, making these detailed instructions unnecessary on every continuation.
Changes:
- Reduced continuation prompt from ~106 lines to ~11 lines (~95 line reduction)
- Changed "User's Goal:" to "Next Prompt in Session:" (more accurate framing)
- Removed redundant WHAT TO RECORD, WHEN TO SKIP, and OUTPUT FORMAT sections
- Kept concise reminder: "Continue generating observations and progress summaries..."
- Initial prompt still contains all detailed instructions
Impact:
- Significant token savings on every continuation prompt
- Faster context injection with no loss of functionality
- Instructions remain comprehensive in initial prompt
Files modified:
- src/sdk/prompts.ts (buildContinuationPrompt function)
- plugin/scripts/worker-service.cjs (compiled output)

Improvements to SessionStart context hook file display:
1. **Remove redundant files**: Files in "Modified" list are now excluded from "Read" list
- Prevents duplication when a file was both read and modified
- Reduces token usage by eliminating redundant information
2. **Use relative paths**: Convert absolute paths to project-relative paths
- Example: /Users/alexnewman/Scripts/claude-mem/src/hooks/context.ts → src/hooks/context.ts
- Significantly reduces token consumption in context injection
- Makes file references more readable and portable
Implementation:
- Added toRelativePath() helper function to convert paths
- Added filesModifiedSet.forEach(file => filesReadSet.delete(file)) to remove duplicates
- Applied to both files_read and files_modified when building Sets
Impact: Reduces token usage in Tier 1 summaries (most recent session) where file lists are displayed.

- Full verbosity with all fields shown
- Request, Learned, Completed, Next Steps, Files Read, Files Modified, Date
Tier 2 (Recent - Positions -2 to -5):
- Medium verbosity, skips Files Read (less actionable)

Tier 3 (Older - Positions -6 to -30):
- Compact index with just Learned + citation link
- Format: Learned + [Details: claude-mem://session/{id}]
- Enables lazy-loading via MCP search tools
Changes:
- Increased LIMIT from 10 to 30 sessions
- Added position-based formatting logic in loop
- Token reduction: ~30% fewer tokens (~2,150 vs ~3,000)
- History expansion: 3x more sessions (30 vs 10)
Benefits:
- Reduced redundancy through natural information gradient
- More context breadth without token explosion
- MCP search becomes expansion mechanism for deeper dives
- Aligns with core philosophy: compression for efficiency, expansion on demand

Root cause: Hooks provide session_id as the source of truth. We were adding
unnecessary validation (checking if sessions exist, checking status, etc.)
which caused 409 conflicts when continuing sessions after /exit.
Changes:
1. worker-service.ts: Removed 409 "Session already exists" check in handleInit
2. SessionStore.ts: Made createSDKSession idempotent using INSERT OR IGNORE
3. new-hook.ts: Simplified to just call createSDKSession - no findActiveSDKSession,
no reactivateSession logic, no status management
4. save-hook.ts: Removed session validation, use fixed port instead of session.worker_port
5. summary-hook.ts: Removed session validation, use fixed port instead of session.worker_port
Philosophy: Hooks manage lifecycle, we just save data with whatever session_id
they give us. No validation, no status checks, no guessing.

All hooks now call ensureWorkerRunning() BEFORE querying the database. This
ensures the worker's orphaned session cleanup runs before hooks check for
active sessions, preventing 404 errors when hooks try to use sessions that
don't exist in worker memory after a restart.
Hook order now:
1. ensureWorkerRunning() - starts worker, runs cleanup
2. Query DB - cleanup already marked orphaned sessions as failed
3. Use session - only valid sessions are processed
Fixed in:
- new-hook: Line 26, before DB queries
- save-hook: Line 37, before DB queries
- summary-hook: Line 24, before DB queries
- cleanup-hook: Line 50, before DB queries
This prevents the race condition where hooks would read session status before
cleanup ran, then get 404 from worker after cleanup marked sessions failed.
