+# Comprehensive Claude-Mem Installer with @clack/prompts
+
+## Overview
+
+Build a beautiful, animated CLI installer for claude-mem using `@clack/prompts` (v1.0.1). Distributable via `npx claude-mem-installer` and `curl -fsSL https://install.cmem.ai | bash`. Replaces the need for users to manually clone, build, configure settings, and start the worker.
+
+**Worktree**: `feat/animated-installer` at `.claude/worktrees/animated-installer`
+
+---
+
+## Phase 0: Documentation & API Reference
+
+### Allowed APIs (@clack/prompts v1.0.1, ESM-only)
+
+| API | Signature | Use Case |
+|-----|-----------|----------|
+| `intro(title?)` | `void` | Opening banner |
+| `outro(message?)` | `void` | Completion message |
+| `cancel(message?)` | `void` | User cancelled |
+| `isCancel(value)` | `boolean` | Check if user pressed Ctrl+C |
+| `text(opts)` | `Promise<string \| symbol>` | API key input, port, data dir |
+| `password(opts)` | `Promise<string \| symbol>` | API key input (masked) |
+| `select(opts)` | `Promise<Value \| symbol>` | Provider, model, auth method |
+| `multiselect(opts)` | `Promise<Value[] \| symbol>` | IDE selection, observation types |
+| `confirm(opts)` | `Promise<boolean \| symbol>` | Enable Chroma, start worker |
+| `spinner()` | `SpinnerResult` | Installing deps, building, starting worker |
+| `progress(opts)` | `ProgressResult` | Multi-step installation progress |
+| `tasks(tasks[])` | `Promise<void>` | Sequential install steps |
+| `group(prompts, opts)` | `Promise<Results>` | Chain prompts with shared results |
+| `note(message, title)` | `void` | Display settings summary, next steps |
+| `log.info/success/warn/error(msg)` | `void` | Status messages |
+| `box(message, title, opts)` | `void` | Welcome box, completion summary |
+
+### Anti-Patterns
+- Do NOT use `require()` — package is ESM-only
+- Do NOT call prompts without TTY check first — hangs indefinitely in non-TTY
+- Do NOT forget `isCancel()` check after every prompt (or use `group()` with `onCancel`)
+- Do NOT use `chalk` — use `picocolors` (clack's dep) for consistency
+- `text()` has no numeric mode — validate manually for port numbers
+- `spinner.stop()` does not accept status codes — use `spinner.error()` for failures
+
+### Distribution Patterns
+- **npx**: `package.json` `bin` field → `"./dist/index.js"`, file needs `#!/usr/bin/env node`
+- **curl|bash**: Shell bootstrap downloads JS, runs `node script.js` directly (preserves TTY)
+- **esbuild**: Bundle to single ESM file, `platform: 'node'`, `banner` for shebang
+
+### Key Source Files to Reference
+- Settings defaults: `src/shared/SettingsDefaultsManager.ts` (lines 73-125)
+- Settings validation: `src/services/server/SettingsRoutes.ts`
+- Worker startup: `src/services/worker-service.ts` (lines 337-359)
+- Health check: `src/services/infrastructure/HealthMonitor.ts`
+- Plugin registration: `plugin/.claude-plugin/plugin.json`, `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json`
+- Marketplace sync: `scripts/sync-marketplace.cjs`
+- Cursor integration: `src/services/integrations/CursorHooksInstaller.ts`
+- Existing OpenClaw installer: `install/public/openclaw.sh` (reference for logic, not code to copy)
+
+---
+
+## Phase 1: Project Scaffolding
+
+**Goal**: Set up the installer package structure with build tooling.
+
+### Tasks
+
+1. **Create directory structure** in the worktree:
+   ```
+   installer/
+   ├── src/
+   │   ├── index.ts              # Entry point with TTY guard
+   │   ├── steps/
+   │   │   ├── welcome.ts        # intro + version check
+   │   │   ├── dependencies.ts   # bun, uv, git checks
+   │   │   ├── ide-selection.ts  # IDE picker + registration
+   │   │   ├── provider.ts       # AI provider + API key
+   │   │   ├── settings.ts       # Additional settings config
+   │   │   ├── install.ts        # Clone, build, register plugin
+   │   │   ├── worker.ts         # Start worker + health check
+   │   │   └── complete.ts       # Summary + next steps
+   │   └── utils/
+   │       ├── system.ts         # OS detection, command runner
+   │       ├── dependencies.ts   # bun/uv/git install helpers
+   │       └── settings-writer.ts # Write ~/.claude-mem/settings.json
+   ├── build.mjs                 # esbuild config
+   ├── package.json              # bin, type: module, deps
+   └── tsconfig.json
+   ```
+
+2. **Create `package.json`**:
+   ```json
+   {
+     "name": "claude-mem-installer",
+     "version": "1.0.0",
+     "type": "module",
+     "bin": { "claude-mem-installer": "./dist/index.js" },
+     "files": ["dist"],
+     "scripts": {
+       "build": "node build.mjs",
+       "dev": "node build.mjs && node dist/index.js"
+     },
+     "dependencies": {
+       "@clack/prompts": "^1.0.1",
+       "picocolors": "^1.1.1"
+     },
+     "devDependencies": {
+       "esbuild": "^0.24.0",
+       "typescript": "^5.7.0",
+       "@types/node": "^22.0.0"
+     },
+     "engines": { "node": ">=18.0.0" }
+   }
+   ```
+
+3. **Create `build.mjs`**:
+   - esbuild bundle: `entryPoints: ['src/index.ts']`, `format: 'esm'`, `platform: 'node'`, `target: 'node18'`
+   - Banner: `#!/usr/bin/env node`
+   - Output: `dist/index.js`
+
+4. **Create `tsconfig.json`**:
+   - `module: "ESNext"`, `target: "ES2022"`, `moduleResolution: "bundler"`
+
+5. **Run `npm install`** in installer/ directory
+
+### Verification
+- [ ] `node build.mjs` succeeds
+- [ ] `dist/index.js` exists with shebang
+- [ ] `node dist/index.js` runs (even if empty installer)
+
+---
+
+## Phase 2: Entry Point + Welcome Screen
+
+**Goal**: Create the main entry point with TTY detection and a beautiful welcome screen.
+
+### Tasks
+
+1. **`src/index.ts`** — Entry point:
+   - TTY guard: if `!process.stdin.isTTY`, print error directing user to `npx claude-mem-installer`, exit 1
+   - Import and call `runInstaller()` from steps
+   - Top-level catch → `p.cancel()` + exit 1
+
+2. **`src/steps/welcome.ts`** — Welcome step:
+   - `p.intro()` with styled title using picocolors: `" claude-mem installer "`
+   - Display version info via `p.log.info()`
+   - Check if already installed (detect `~/.claude-mem/settings.json` and `~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/`)
+   - If upgrade detected, `p.confirm()`: "claude-mem is already installed. Upgrade?"
+   - `p.select()` for install mode: Fresh Install vs Upgrade vs Configure Only
+
+3. **`src/utils/system.ts`** — System utilities:
+   - `detectOS()`: returns 'macos' | 'linux' | 'windows'
+   - `commandExists(cmd)`: checks if command is in PATH
+   - `runCommand(cmd, args)`: executes shell command, returns { stdout, stderr, exitCode }
+   - `expandHome(path)`: resolves `~` to home directory
+
+### Verification
+- [ ] Running `node dist/index.js` shows intro banner
+- [ ] Ctrl+C triggers cancel message
+- [ ] Non-TTY (piped) shows error and exits
+
+---
+
+## Phase 3: Dependency Checks
+
+**Goal**: Check and install required dependencies (Bun, uv, git, Node.js version).
+
+### Tasks
+
+1. **`src/steps/dependencies.ts`** — Dependency checker:
+   - Use `p.tasks()` to check each dependency sequentially with animated spinners:
+     - **Node.js**: Verify >= 18.0.0 via `process.version`
+     - **git**: `commandExists('git')`, show install instructions per OS if missing
+     - **Bun**: Check PATH + common locations (`~/.bun/bin/bun`, `/usr/local/bin/bun`, `/opt/homebrew/bin/bun`). Min version 1.1.14. Offer to auto-install from `https://bun.sh/install`
+     - **uv**: Check PATH + common locations (`~/.local/bin/uv`, `~/.cargo/bin/uv`). Offer to auto-install from `https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh`
+   - For missing deps: `p.confirm()` to auto-install, or show manual instructions
+   - After install attempts, re-verify each dep
+
+2. **`src/utils/dependencies.ts`** — Install helpers:
+   - `installBun()`: downloads and runs bun install script
+   - `installUv()`: downloads and runs uv install script
+   - `findBinary(name, extraPaths[])`: searches PATH + known locations
+   - `checkVersion(binary, minVersion)`: parses `--version` output
+
+### Verification
+- [ ] Shows green checkmarks for found dependencies
+- [ ] Shows yellow warnings for missing deps with install option
+- [ ] Auto-install actually installs bun/uv when confirmed
+- [ ] Fails gracefully if git is missing (can't auto-install)
+
+---
+
+## Phase 4: IDE Selection & Provider Configuration
+
+**Goal**: Let user choose IDEs and configure AI provider with API keys.
+
+### Tasks
+
+1. **`src/steps/ide-selection.ts`** — IDE picker:
+   - `p.multiselect()` with options:
+     - Claude Code (default selected, hint: "recommended")
+     - Cursor
+     - Windsurf (hint: "coming soon", disabled: true)
+   - For Claude Code: explain plugin will be registered via marketplace
+   - For Cursor: explain hooks will be installed via CursorHooksInstaller pattern
+   - Store selections for later installation steps
+
+2. **`src/steps/provider.ts`** — AI provider configuration:
+   - `p.select()` for provider:
+     - **Claude** (hint: "recommended — uses your Claude subscription")
+     - **Gemini** (hint: "free tier available")
+     - **OpenRouter** (hint: "free models available")
+   - **If Claude selected**:
+     - `p.select()` for auth method: "CLI (Max Plan subscription)" vs "API Key"
+     - If API key: `p.password()` for key input
+   - **If Gemini selected**:
+     - `p.password()` for API key (required)
+     - `p.select()` for model: gemini-2.5-flash-lite (default), gemini-2.5-flash, gemini-3-flash-preview
+     - `p.confirm()` for rate limiting (default: true)
+   - **If OpenRouter selected**:
+     - `p.password()` for API key (required)
+     - `p.text()` for model (default: `xiaomi/mimo-v2-flash:free`)
+   - Validate API keys where possible (non-empty, format check)
+
+### Verification
+- [ ] Multiselect allows picking multiple IDEs
+- [ ] Provider selection shows correct follow-up prompts
+- [ ] API keys are masked during input
+- [ ] Cancel at any step triggers graceful exit
+
+---
+
+## Phase 5: Settings Configuration
+
+**Goal**: Configure additional settings with sensible defaults.
+
+### Tasks
+
+1. **`src/steps/settings.ts`** — Settings wizard:
+   - `p.confirm()`: "Use default settings?" (recommended) — if yes, skip detailed config
+   - If customizing, use `p.group()` for:
+     - **Worker port**: `p.text()` with default 37777, validate 1024-65535
+     - **Data directory**: `p.text()` with default `~/.claude-mem`
+     - **Context observations**: `p.text()` with default 50, validate 1-200
+     - **Log level**: `p.select()` — DEBUG, INFO (default), WARN, ERROR
+     - **Python version**: `p.text()` with default 3.13
+     - **Chroma vector search**: `p.confirm()` (default: true)
+       - If yes, `p.select()` mode: local (default) vs remote
+       - If remote: `p.text()` for host, port, `p.confirm()` for SSL
+   - Show settings summary via `p.note()` before proceeding
+
+2. **`src/utils/settings-writer.ts`** — Write settings:
+   - Build flat key-value settings object matching SettingsDefaultsManager schema
+   - Merge with existing settings if upgrading (preserve user customizations)
+   - Write to `~/.claude-mem/settings.json`
+   - Create `~/.claude-mem/` directory if it doesn't exist
+
+### Verification
+- [ ] Default settings mode skips all detailed prompts
+- [ ] Custom settings validates all inputs
+- [ ] Settings file written matches SettingsDefaultsManager schema exactly
+- [ ] Existing settings preserved on upgrade
+
+---
+
+## Phase 6: Installation Execution
+
+**Goal**: Clone repo, build plugin, register with IDEs, start worker.
+
+### Tasks
+
+1. **`src/steps/install.ts`** — Installation runner:
+   - Use `p.tasks()` for visual progress:
+     - **"Cloning claude-mem repository"**: `git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/thedotmack/claude-mem.git` to temp dir
+     - **"Installing dependencies"**: `npm install` in cloned repo
+     - **"Building plugin"**: `npm run build` in cloned repo
+     - **"Registering plugin"**: Copy plugin files to `~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/`
+       - Create marketplace.json, plugin.json structure
+       - Register in `~/.claude/plugins/known_marketplaces.json`
+       - Add to `~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json`
+       - Enable in `~/.claude/settings.json` under `enabledPlugins`
+     - **"Installing dependencies"** (in marketplace dir): `npm install`
+   - For Cursor (if selected):
+     - **"Configuring Cursor hooks"**: Run Cursor hooks installer logic
+     - Write hooks.json to `~/.cursor/` or project-level `.cursor/`
+     - Configure MCP in `.cursor/mcp.json`
+
+2. **`src/steps/worker.ts`** — Worker startup:
+   - Use `p.spinner()` for worker startup:
+     - Start worker: `bun plugin/scripts/worker-service.cjs` (from marketplace dir)
+     - Write PID file to `~/.claude-mem/worker.pid`
+   - Two-stage health check (copy pattern from OpenClaw installer):
+     - Stage 1: Poll `/api/health` — spinner message: "Starting worker service..."
+     - Stage 2: Poll `/api/readiness` — spinner message: "Initializing database..."
+     - Budget: 30 attempts, 1 second apart
+     - On success: `spinner.stop("Worker running on port {port}")`
+     - On failure: `spinner.error("Worker failed to start")`, show log path
+
+### Verification
+- [ ] Plugin files exist at `~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/`
+- [ ] known_marketplaces.json updated
+- [ ] installed_plugins.json updated
+- [ ] settings.json has enabledPlugins entry
+- [ ] Worker responds to `/api/health` with 200
+- [ ] Worker responds to `/api/readiness` with 200
+
+---
+
+## Phase 7: Completion & Summary
+
+**Goal**: Show success screen with configuration summary and next steps.
+
+### Tasks
+
+1. **`src/steps/complete.ts`** — Completion screen:
+   - `p.note()` with configuration summary:
+     - Provider + model
+     - IDEs configured
+     - Data directory
+     - Worker port
+     - Chroma enabled/disabled
+   - `p.note()` with next steps:
+     - "Open Claude Code and start a conversation — memory is automatic!"
+     - "View your memories: http://localhost:{port}"
+     - "Search past work: use /mem-search in Claude Code"
+     - If Cursor: "Open Cursor — hooks are active in your projects"
+   - `p.outro()` with styled completion message
+
+### Verification
+- [ ] Summary accurately reflects chosen settings
+- [ ] URLs use correct port from settings
+- [ ] Next steps are relevant to selected IDEs
+
+---
+
+## Phase 8: curl|bash Bootstrap Script
+
+**Goal**: Create the shell bootstrap script for `curl -fsSL https://install.cmem.ai | bash`.
+
+### Tasks
+
+1. **`install/public/install.sh`** — Bootstrap script:
+   - Check for Node.js >= 18 (required to run the installer)
+   - Download bundled installer JS to temp file
+   - Execute with `node` directly (preserves TTY for @clack/prompts)
+   - Cleanup temp file on exit (trap)
+   - Support `--non-interactive` flag passthrough
+   - Support `--provider=X --api-key=Y` flag passthrough
+
+2. **Update `install/vercel.json`** to serve `install.sh` alongside `openclaw.sh`
+
+### Verification
+- [ ] `curl -fsSL https://install.cmem.ai | bash` downloads and runs installer
+- [ ] Interactive prompts work after curl download
+- [ ] Temp file cleaned up on success and failure
+- [ ] Flags pass through correctly
+
+---
+
+## Phase 9: Final Verification
+
+### Checks
+- [ ] `npm run build` in installer/ produces single-file `dist/index.js`
+- [ ] `node dist/index.js` runs full wizard flow
+- [ ] Fresh install on clean system works end-to-end
+- [ ] Upgrade path preserves existing settings
+- [ ] Ctrl+C at any step exits cleanly
+- [ ] Non-TTY shows error message
+- [ ] All settings written match SettingsDefaultsManager.ts defaults schema
+- [ ] Worker health check succeeds after install
+- [ ] Plugin appears in Claude Code plugin list
+- [ ] grep for deprecated/non-existent APIs returns 0 results
+- [ ] No `require()` calls in source (ESM-only)
+- [ ] No `chalk` imports (use picocolors)

+# Plan: NPX Distribution + Universal IDE/CLI Coverage for claude-mem
+
+## Problem
+
+1. **Installation is slow and fragile**: Current install clones the full git repo, runs `npm install`, and builds from source. The npm package already ships pre-built artifacts.
+
+2. **IDE coverage is limited**: claude-mem only supports Claude Code (plugin) and Cursor (hooks installer). The AI coding tools landscape has exploded — Gemini CLI (95k stars), OpenCode (110k stars), Windsurf (~1M users), Codex CLI, Antigravity, Goose, Crush, Copilot CLI, and more all support extensibility.
+
+## Key Insights
+
+- **npm package already has everything**: `plugin/` directory ships pre-built. No git clone or build needed.
+- **Transcript watcher already exists**: `src/services/transcripts/` has a fully built schema-based JSONL tailer. It just needs schemas for more tools.
+- **3 integration tiers exist**: (1) Hook/plugin-based (Claude Code, Gemini CLI, OpenCode, Windsurf, Codex CLI, OpenClaw), (2) MCP-based (Cursor, Copilot CLI, Antigravity, Goose, Crush, Roo Code), (3) Transcript-based (anything with structured log files).
+- **OpenClaw plugin already built**: Full plugin at `openclaw/src/index.ts` (1000+ lines). Needs to be wired into the npx installer.
+- **Gemini CLI is architecturally near-identical to Claude Code**: 11 lifecycle hooks, JSON via stdin/stdout, exit code 0/2 convention, `GEMINI.md` context files, `~/.gemini/settings.json`. This is the easiest high-value integration.
+- **OpenCode has the richest plugin system**: 20+ hook events across 12 categories, JS/TS plugin modules, custom tool creation, MCP support. 110k stars — largest open-source AI CLI.
+- **`npx skills` by Vercel supports 41 agents** — proving the multi-IDE installer UX works. Their agent detection pattern (check if config dir exists) is the right model.
+- **All IDEs share a single worker on port 37777**: One worker serves all integrations. Session source (which IDE) is tracked via the `source` field in hook payloads. No per-IDE worker instances.
+- **This npx CLI fully replaces the old `claude-mem-installer`**: Not a supplement — the complete replacement.
+
+## Solution
+
+`npx claude-mem` becomes a unified CLI: install, configure any IDE, manage the worker, search memory.
+
+```
+npx claude-mem                          # Interactive install + IDE selection
+npx claude-mem install                  # Same as above
+npx claude-mem install --ide windsurf   # Direct IDE setup
+npx claude-mem start / stop / status    # Worker management
+npx claude-mem search <query>           # Search memory from terminal
+npx claude-mem transcript watch         # Start transcript watcher
+```
+
+## Platform Support
+
+**Windows, macOS, and Linux are all first-class targets.** Platform-specific considerations:
+
+- **Config paths**: Use `os.homedir()` and `path.join()` everywhere — never hardcode `/` or `~`
+- **Shebangs**: `#!/usr/bin/env node` for the CLI entry point (cross-platform via Node)
+- **Bun detection**: Check `PATH`, common install locations per platform (`%USERPROFILE%\.bun\bin\bun.exe` on Windows, `~/.bun/bin/bun` on Unix)
+- **File permissions**: `fs.chmod` is a no-op on Windows; don't gate on it
+- **Process management**: Worker start/stop uses signals on Unix, taskkill on Windows — match existing `worker-service.ts` patterns
+- **VS Code paths**: `~/Library/Application Support/Code/` (macOS), `~/.config/Code/` (Linux), `%APPDATA%/Code/` (Windows)
+- **Shell config**: `.bashrc`/`.zshrc` on Unix, PowerShell profile on Windows (for PATH modifications if needed)

+
+### Patterns to Copy
+
+- **Agent detection from `npx skills`** (`vercel-labs/skills/src/agents.ts`): Check if config directory exists
+- **Existing installer logic** (`installer/src/steps/install.ts:29-83`): registerMarketplace, registerPlugin, enablePluginInClaudeSettings — **extract shared logic** from existing installer into reusable modules (DRY with the new CLI)
+- **Bun resolution** (`plugin/scripts/bun-runner.js`): PATH lookup + common locations per platform
+- **CursorHooksInstaller** (`src/services/integrations/CursorHooksInstaller.ts`): Reference implementation for IDE hooks installation
+
+---
+
+## Phase 1: NPX CLI Entry Point
+
+### What to implement
+
+1. **Add `bin` field to `package.json`**:
+   ```json
+   "bin": {
+     "claude-mem": "./dist/cli/index.js"
+   }
+   ```
+
+2. **Create `src/npx-cli/index.ts`** — a Node.js CLI router (NOT Bun) with command categories:
+
+   **Install commands** (pure Node.js, no Bun required):
+   - `npx claude-mem` or `npx claude-mem install` → interactive install (IDE multi-select)
+   - `npx claude-mem install --ide <name>` → direct IDE setup (only for implemented IDEs; unimplemented ones error with "Support for <name> coming soon")
+   - `npx claude-mem update` → update to latest version
+   - `npx claude-mem uninstall` → remove plugin and IDE configs
+   - `npx claude-mem version` → print version
+
+   **Runtime commands** (delegate to Bun via installed plugin):
+   - `npx claude-mem start` → spawns `bun worker-service.cjs start`
+   - `npx claude-mem stop` → spawns `bun worker-service.cjs stop`
+   - `npx claude-mem restart` → spawns `bun worker-service.cjs restart`
+   - `npx claude-mem status` → spawns `bun worker-service.cjs status`
+   - `npx claude-mem search <query>` → hits `GET http://localhost:37777/api/search?q=<query>`
+   - `npx claude-mem transcript watch` → starts transcript watcher
+
+   **Runtime commands must check for installation first**: If plugin directory doesn't exist at `~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/`, print "claude-mem is not installed. Run: npx claude-mem install" and exit.
+
+3. **The install flow** (fully replaces git clone + build):
+   - Detect the npm package's own location (`import.meta.url` or `__dirname`)
+   - Copy `plugin/` from the npm package to `~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/thedotmack/`
+   - Copy `plugin/` to `~/.claude/plugins/cache/thedotmack/claude-mem/<version>/`
+   - Register marketplace in `~/.claude/plugins/known_marketplaces.json`
+   - Register plugin in `~/.claude/plugins/installed_plugins.json`
+   - Enable in `~/.claude/settings.json`
+   - Run `npm install` in the marketplace dir (for `@chroma-core/default-embed` — native ONNX binaries, can't be bundled)
+   - Trigger smart-install.js for Bun/uv setup
+   - Run IDE-specific setup for each selected IDE
+
+4. **Interactive IDE selection** (auto-detect + prompt):
+   - Auto-detect installed IDEs by checking config directories
+   - Present multi-select with detected IDEs pre-selected
+   - Detection map:
+     - Claude Code: `~/.claude/` exists
+     - Gemini CLI: `~/.gemini/` exists
+     - OpenCode: `~/.config/opencode/` exists OR `opencode` in PATH
+     - OpenClaw: `~/.openclaw/` exists
+     - Windsurf: `~/.codeium/windsurf/` exists
+     - Codex CLI: `~/.codex/` exists
+     - Cursor: `~/.cursor/` exists
+     - Copilot CLI: `copilot` in PATH (it's a CLI tool, not a config dir)
+     - Antigravity: `~/.gemini/antigravity/` exists
+     - Goose: `~/.config/goose/` exists OR `goose` in PATH
+     - Crush: `crush` in PATH
+     - Roo Code: check for VS Code extension directory containing `roo-code`
+     - Warp: `~/.warp/` exists OR `warp` in PATH
+
+5. **The runtime command routing**:
+   - Locate the installed plugin directory
+   - Find Bun binary (same logic as `bun-runner.js`, platform-aware)
+   - Spawn `bun worker-service.cjs <command>` and pipe stdio through
+   - For `search`: HTTP request to running worker
+
+### Patterns to follow
+
+- `installer/src/steps/install.ts:29-83` for marketplace registration — **extract to shared module**
+- `plugin/scripts/bun-runner.js` for Bun resolution
+- `vercel-labs/skills/src/agents.ts` for IDE auto-detection pattern
+
+### Verification
+
+- `npx claude-mem install` copies plugin to correct directories on macOS, Linux, and Windows
+- Auto-detection finds installed IDEs
+- `npx claude-mem start/stop/status` work after install
+- `npx claude-mem search "test"` returns results
+- `npx claude-mem start` before install prints helpful error message
+- `npx claude-mem update` and `npx claude-mem uninstall` work correctly
+- `npx claude-mem version` prints version
+
+### Anti-patterns
+
+- Do NOT require Bun for install commands — pure Node.js
+- Do NOT clone the git repo
+- Do NOT build from source at install time
+- Do NOT depend on `bun:sqlite` in the CLI entry point
+
+---
+
+## Phase 2: Build Pipeline Integration
+
+### What to implement
+
+1. **Add CLI build step to `scripts/build-hooks.js`**:
+   - Compile `src/npx-cli/index.ts` → `dist/cli/index.js`
+   - Bundle `@clack/prompts` and `picocolors` into the output (self-contained)
+   - Shebang: `#!/usr/bin/env node`
+   - Set executable permissions (no-op on Windows, that's fine)
+
+2. **Move `@clack/prompts` and `picocolors`** to main package.json as dev dependencies (bundled by esbuild into dist/cli/index.js)
+
+3. **Verify `package.json` `files` field**: Currently `["dist", "plugin"]`. `dist/cli/index.js` is already included since it's under `dist/`. No change needed.
+
+4. **Update `prepublishOnly`** to ensure CLI is built before npm publish (already covered — `npm run build` calls `build-hooks.js`)
+
+5. **Pre-build OpenClaw plugin**: Add an esbuild step that compiles `openclaw/src/index.ts` → `openclaw/dist/index.js` so it ships ready-to-use. No `tsc` at install time.
+
+6. **Add `openclaw/dist/` to `package.json` `files` field** (or add `openclaw` if the whole directory should ship)
+
+### Verification
+
+- `npm run build` produces `dist/cli/index.js` with correct shebang
+- `npm run build` produces `openclaw/dist/index.js` pre-built
+- `npm pack` includes both `dist/cli/index.js` and `openclaw/dist/`
+- `node dist/cli/index.js --help` works without Bun
+- Package size is reasonable (check with `npm pack --dry-run`)
+
+---
+
+## Phase 3: Gemini CLI Integration (Tier 1 — Hook-Based)
+
+**Why first among new IDEs**: Near-identical architecture to Claude Code. 11 lifecycle hooks with JSON stdin/stdout, same exit code conventions (0=success, 2=block), `GEMINI.md` context files. 95k GitHub stars. Lowest effort, highest confidence.
+
+### Gemini CLI Hook Events
+
+| Event | Map to claude-mem | Use |
+|-------|-------------------|-----|
+| `SessionStart` | `session-init` | Start tracking session |
+| `BeforeAgent` | `user-prompt` | Capture user prompt |
+| `AfterAgent` | `observation` | Capture full agent response |
+| `BeforeTool` | — | Skip (pre-execution, no result yet) |
+| `AfterTool` | `observation` | Capture tool name + input + response |
+| `BeforeModel` | — | Skip (too low-level, LLM request details) |
+| `AfterModel` | — | Skip (raw LLM response, redundant with AfterAgent) |
+| `BeforeToolSelection` | — | Skip (internal planning step) |
+| `PreCompress` | `summary` | Trigger summary before context compression |
+| `Notification` | — | Skip (system alerts, not session data) |
+| `SessionEnd` | `session-end` | Finalize session |
+
+**Mapped**: 5 of 11 events. **Skipped**: 6 events that are either too low-level (BeforeModel/AfterModel), pre-execution (BeforeTool, BeforeToolSelection), or system-level (Notification).
+
+### Verified Stdin Payload Schemas (from `packages/core/src/hooks/types.ts`)
+
+**Base input (all hooks receive):**
+```typescript
+{ session_id: string, transcript_path: string, cwd: string, hook_event_name: string, timestamp: string }
+```
+
+**Event-specific fields:**
+| Event | Additional Fields |
+|-------|-------------------|
+| `SessionStart` | `source: "startup" \| "resume" \| "clear"` |
+| `SessionEnd` | `reason: "exit" \| "clear" \| "logout" \| "prompt_input_exit" \| "other"` |
+| `BeforeAgent` | `prompt: string` |
+| `AfterAgent` | `prompt: string, prompt_response: string, stop_hook_active: boolean` |
+| `BeforeTool` | `tool_name: string, tool_input: Record<string, unknown>, mcp_context?: McpToolContext, original_request_name?: string` |
+| `AfterTool` | `tool_name: string, tool_input: Record<string, unknown>, tool_response: Record<string, unknown>, mcp_context?: McpToolContext` |
+| `PreCompress` | `trigger: "auto" \| "manual"` |
+| `Notification` | `notification_type: "ToolPermission", message: string, details: Record<string, unknown>` |
+
+**Output (all hooks can return):**
+```typescript
+{ continue?: boolean, stopReason?: string, suppressOutput?: boolean, systemMessage?: string, decision?: "allow" | "deny" | "block" | "approve" | "ask", reason?: string, hookSpecificOutput?: Record<string, unknown> }
+```
+
+**Advisory (non-blocking) hooks:** SessionStart, SessionEnd, PreCompress, Notification — `continue` and `decision` fields are ignored.
+
+**Environment variables provided:** `GEMINI_PROJECT_DIR`, `GEMINI_SESSION_ID`, `GEMINI_CWD`, `CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR` (compat alias)
+
+### What to implement
+
+1. **Create Gemini CLI platform adapter** at `src/cli/adapters/gemini-cli.ts`:
+   - Normalize Gemini CLI's hook JSON to `NormalizedHookInput`
+   - Base fields always present: `session_id`, `transcript_path`, `cwd`, `hook_event_name`, `timestamp`
+   - Map per event:
+     - `SessionStart`: `source` → session init metadata
+     - `BeforeAgent`: `prompt` → user prompt text
+     - `AfterAgent`: `prompt` + `prompt_response` → full conversation turn
+     - `AfterTool`: `tool_name` + `tool_input` + `tool_response` → observation
+     - `PreCompress`: `trigger` → summary trigger
+     - `SessionEnd`: `reason` → session finalization
+
+2. **Create Gemini CLI hooks installer** at `src/services/integrations/GeminiCliHooksInstaller.ts`:
+   - Write hooks to `~/.gemini/settings.json` under the `hooks` key
+   - Must **merge** with existing settings (read → parse → deep merge → write)
+   - Hook config format (verified against official docs):
+     ```json
+     {
+       "hooks": {
+         "AfterTool": [{
+           "matcher": "*",
+           "hooks": [{ "name": "claude-mem", "type": "command", "command": "<path-to-hook-script>", "timeout": 5000 }]
+         }]
+       }
+     }
+     ```
+   - Note: `matcher` uses regex for tool events, exact string for lifecycle events. `"*"` or `""` matches all.
+   - Hook groups support `sequential: boolean` (default false = parallel execution)
+   - Security: Project-level hooks are fingerprinted — if name/command changes, user is warned
+   - Context injection via `~/.gemini/GEMINI.md` (append claude-mem section with `<claude-mem-context>` tags, same pattern as CLAUDE.md)
+   - Settings hierarchy: project `.gemini/settings.json` > user `~/.gemini/settings.json` > system `/etc/gemini-cli/settings.json`
+
+3. **Register `gemini-cli` in `getPlatformAdapter()`** at `src/cli/adapters/index.ts`
+
+4. **Add Gemini CLI to installer IDE selection**
+
+### Verification
+
+- `npx claude-mem install --ide gemini-cli` merges hooks into `~/.gemini/settings.json`
+- Gemini CLI sessions are captured by the worker
+- `AfterTool` events produce observations with correct `tool_name`, `tool_input`, `tool_response`
+- `GEMINI.md` gets claude-mem context section
+- Existing Gemini CLI settings are preserved (merge, not overwrite)
+- Verify `session_id` from base input is used for session tracking
+
+### Anti-patterns
+
+- Do NOT overwrite `~/.gemini/settings.json` — must deep merge
+- Do NOT map all 11 events — the 6 skipped events would produce noise, not signal
+- Do NOT use `type: "runtime"` — that's for internal extensions only; use `type: "command"`
+- Advisory hooks (SessionStart, SessionEnd, PreCompress, Notification) cannot block — don't set `decision` or `continue` fields on them
+
+---
+
+## Phase 4: OpenCode Integration (Tier 1 — Plugin-Based)
+
+**Why next**: 110k stars, richest plugin ecosystem. OpenCode plugins are JS/TS modules auto-loaded from plugin directories. OpenCode also has a Claude Code compatibility fallback (reads `~/.claude/CLAUDE.md` if no global `AGENTS.md` exists, controllable via `OPENCODE_DISABLE_CLAUDE_CODE_PROMPT=1`).
+
+### Verified Plugin API (from `packages/plugin/src/index.ts`)
+
+**Plugin signature:**
+```typescript
+import { type Plugin, tool } from "@opencode-ai/plugin"
+
+export const ClaudeMemPlugin: Plugin = async (ctx) => {
+  // ctx: { client, project, directory, worktree, serverUrl, $ }
+  return { /* hooks object */ }
+}
+```
+
+**PluginInput type (6 properties, not 4):**
+```typescript
+type PluginInput = {
+  client: ReturnType<typeof createOpencodeClient>  // OpenCode SDK client
+  project: Project                                   // Current project info
+  directory: string                                  // Current working directory
+  worktree: string                                   // Git worktree path
+  serverUrl: URL                                     // Server URL
+  $: BunShell                                        // Bun shell API
+}
+```
+
+**Two hook mechanisms (important distinction):**
+
+1. **Direct interceptor hooks** — keys on the returned `Hooks` object, receive `(input, output)` allowing mutation:
+   - `tool.execute.before`: `(input: { tool, sessionID, callID }, output: { args })`
+   - `tool.execute.after`: `(input: { tool, sessionID, callID, args }, output: { title, output, metadata })`
+   - `shell.env`, `chat.message`, `chat.params`, `chat.headers`, `permission.ask`, `command.execute.before`
+   - Experimental: `experimental.session.compacting`, `experimental.chat.messages.transform`, `experimental.chat.system.transform`
+
+2. **Bus event catch-all** — generic `event` hook, receives `{ event }` where `event.type` is the event name:
+   - `session.created`, `session.compacted`, `session.deleted`, `session.idle`, `session.error`, `session.status`, `session.updated`, `session.diff`
+   - `message.updated`, `message.part.updated`, `message.part.removed`, `message.removed`
+   - `file.edited`, `file.watcher.updated`
+   - `command.executed`, `todo.updated`, `installation.updated`, `server.connected`
+   - `permission.asked`, `permission.replied`
+   - `lsp.client.diagnostics`, `lsp.updated`
+   - `tui.prompt.append`, `tui.command.execute`, `tui.toast.show`
+   - Total: **27 bus events** across **12 categories**
+
+**Custom tool registration (CORRECTED — name is the key, not positional arg):**
+```typescript
+return {
+  tool: {
+    claude_mem_search: tool({
+      description: "Search claude-mem memory database",
+      args: { query: tool.schema.string() },
+      async execute(args, context) {
+        // context: { sessionID, messageID, agent, directory, worktree, abort, metadata, ask }
+        const response = await fetch(`http://localhost:37777/api/search?q=${encodeURIComponent(args.query)}`)
+        return await response.text()
+      },
+    }),
+  },
+}
+```
+
+### What to implement
+
+1. **Create OpenCode plugin** at `src/integrations/opencode-plugin/index.ts`:
+   - Export a `Plugin` function receiving full `PluginInput` context
+   - Use **direct interceptor** `tool.execute.after` for tool observation capture (gives `tool`, `args`, `output`)
+   - Use **bus event catch-all** `event` for session lifecycle:
+
+   | Mechanism | Event | Map to claude-mem |
+   |-----------|-------|-------------------|
+   | interceptor | `tool.execute.after` | `observation` (tool name + args + output) |
+   | bus event | `session.created` | `session-init` |
+   | bus event | `message.updated` | `observation` (assistant messages) |
+   | bus event | `session.compacted` | `summary` |
+   | bus event | `file.edited` | `observation` (file changes) |
+   | bus event | `session.deleted` | `session-end` |
+
+   - Register `claude_mem_search` custom tool using correct `tool({ description, args, execute })` API
+   - Hit `localhost:37777` API endpoints from the plugin
+
+2. **Build the plugin** in the esbuild pipeline → `dist/opencode-plugin/index.js`
+
+3. **Create OpenCode setup in installer** (two options, prefer file-based):
+   - **Option A (file-based):** Copy plugin to `~/.config/opencode/plugins/claude-mem.ts` (auto-loaded at startup)
+   - **Option B (npm-based):** Add to `~/.config/opencode/opencode.json` under `"plugin"` array: `["claude-mem"]`
+   - Config also supports JSONC (`opencode.jsonc`) and legacy `config.json`
+   - Context injection: Append to `~/.config/opencode/AGENTS.md` (or create it) with `<claude-mem-context>` tags
+   - Additional context via `"instructions"` config key (supports file paths, globs, remote URLs)
+
+4. **Add OpenCode to installer IDE selection**
+
+### OpenCode Verification
+
+- `npx claude-mem install --ide opencode` registers the plugin (file or npm)
+- OpenCode loads the plugin on next session
+- `tool.execute.after` interceptor produces observations with `tool`, `args`, `output`
+- Bus events (`session.created`, `session.deleted`) handle session lifecycle
+- `claude_mem_search` custom tool works in OpenCode sessions
+- Context is injected via AGENTS.md
+
+### OpenCode Anti-patterns
+
+- Do NOT try to use OpenCode's `session.diff` for full capture — it's a summary diff, not raw data
+- Do NOT use `tool('name', schema, handler)` — wrong signature. Name is the key in the `tool:{}` map
+- Do NOT assume bus events have the same `(input, output)` mutation pattern — they only receive `{ event }`
+- OpenCode plugins run in Bun — the plugin CAN use Bun APIs (unlike the npx CLI itself)
+- Do NOT hardcode `~/.config/opencode/` — respect `OPENCODE_CONFIG_DIR` env var if set
+
+---
+
+## Phase 5: Windsurf Integration (Tier 1 — Hook-Based)
+
+**Why next**: 11 Cascade hooks, ~1M users. Hook architecture uses JSON stdin with a consistent envelope format.
+
+### Verified Windsurf Hook Events (from docs.windsurf.com/windsurf/cascade/hooks)
+
+**Naming pattern**: `pre_`/`post_` prefix + 5 action categories, plus 2 standalone post-only events.
+
+| Event | Can Block? | Map to claude-mem | Use |
+|-------|-----------|-------------------|-----|
+| `pre_user_prompt` | Yes | `session-init` + `context` | Start session, inject context |
+| `pre_read_code` | Yes | — | Skip (pre-execution, can block file reads) |
+| `post_read_code` | No | — | Skip (too noisy, file reads are frequent) |
+| `pre_write_code` | Yes | — | Skip (pre-execution, can block writes) |
+| `post_write_code` | No | `observation` | Code generation |
+| `pre_run_command` | Yes | — | Skip (pre-execution, can block commands) |
+| `post_run_command` | No | `observation` | Shell command execution |
+| `pre_mcp_tool_use` | Yes | — | Skip (pre-execution, can block MCP calls) |
+| `post_mcp_tool_use` | No | `observation` | MCP tool results |
+| `post_cascade_response` | No | `observation` | Full AI response |
+| `post_setup_worktree` | No | — | Skip (informational) |
+
+**Mapped**: 5 of 11 events (all post-action). **Skipped**: 4 pre-hooks (blocking-capable, pre-execution) + 2 low-value post-hooks.
+
+### Verified Stdin Payload Schema
+
+**Common envelope (all hooks):**
+```json
+{
+  "agent_action_name": "string",
+  "trajectory_id": "string",
+  "execution_id": "string",
+  "timestamp": "ISO 8601 string",
+  "tool_info": { /* event-specific payload */ }
+}
+```
+
+**Event-specific `tool_info` payloads:**
+
+| Event | `tool_info` fields |
+|-------|-------------------|
+| `pre_user_prompt` | `{ user_prompt: string }` |
+| `pre_read_code` / `post_read_code` | `{ file_path: string }` |
+| `pre_write_code` / `post_write_code` | `{ file_path: string, edits: [{ old_string: string, new_string: string }] }` |
+| `pre_run_command` / `post_run_command` | `{ command_line: string, cwd: string }` |
+| `pre_mcp_tool_use` | `{ mcp_server_name: string, mcp_tool_name: string, mcp_tool_arguments: {} }` |
+| `post_mcp_tool_use` | `{ mcp_server_name: string, mcp_tool_name: string, mcp_tool_arguments: {}, mcp_result: string }` |
+| `post_cascade_response` | `{ response: string }` (markdown) |
+| `post_setup_worktree` | `{ worktree_path: string, root_workspace_path: string }` |
+
+**Exit codes:** `0` = success, `2` = block (pre-hooks only; stderr shown to agent), any other = non-blocking warning.
+
+### What to implement
+
+1. **Create Windsurf platform adapter** at `src/cli/adapters/windsurf.ts`:
+   - Normalize Windsurf's hook input format to `NormalizedHookInput`
+   - Common envelope: `agent_action_name`, `trajectory_id`, `execution_id`, `timestamp`, `tool_info`
+   - Map: `trajectory_id` → `sessionId`, `tool_info` fields per event type
+   - For `post_write_code`: `tool_info.file_path` + `tool_info.edits` → file change observation
+   - For `post_run_command`: `tool_info.command_line` + `tool_info.cwd` → command observation
+   - For `post_mcp_tool_use`: `tool_info.mcp_tool_name` + `tool_info.mcp_tool_arguments` + `tool_info.mcp_result` → tool observation
+   - For `post_cascade_response`: `tool_info.response` → full AI response observation
+
+2. **Create Windsurf hooks installer** at `src/services/integrations/WindsurfHooksInstaller.ts`:
+   - Write hooks to `~/.codeium/windsurf/hooks.json` (user-level, for global coverage)
+   - Per-workspace override at `.windsurf/hooks.json` if user chooses workspace-level install
+   - Config format (verified):
+     ```json
+     {
+       "hooks": {
+         "post_write_code": [{
+           "command": "<path-to-hook-script>",
+           "show_output": false,
+           "working_directory": "<optional>"
+         }]
+       }
+     }
+     ```
+   - Note: Tilde expansion (`~`) is NOT supported in `working_directory` — use absolute paths
+   - Merge order: cloud → system → user → workspace (all hooks at all levels execute)
+   - Context injection via `.windsurf/rules/claude-mem-context.md` (workspace-level; Windsurf rules are workspace-scoped)
+   - Rule limits: 6,000 chars per file, 12,000 chars total across all rules
+
+3. **Register `windsurf` in `getPlatformAdapter()`** at `src/cli/adapters/index.ts`
+
+4. **Add Windsurf to installer IDE selection**
+
+### Windsurf Verification
+
+- `npx claude-mem install --ide windsurf` creates hooks config at `~/.codeium/windsurf/hooks.json`
+- Windsurf sessions are captured by the worker via post-action hooks
+- `trajectory_id` is used as session identifier
+- Context is injected via `.windsurf/rules/claude-mem-context.md` (under 6K char limit)
+- Existing hooks.json is preserved (merge, not overwrite)
+
+### Windsurf Anti-patterns
+
+- Do NOT use fabricated event names (`post_search_code`, `post_lint_code`, `on_error`, `pre_tool_execution`) — they don't exist
+- Do NOT assume Windsurf's stdin JSON matches Claude Code's — it uses `tool_info` envelope, not flat fields
+- Do NOT use tilde (`~`) in `working_directory` — not supported, use absolute paths
+- Do NOT exceed 6K chars in the context rule file — Windsurf truncates beyond that
+- Pre-hooks can block actions (exit 2) — only use post-hooks for observation capture
+
+---
+
+## Phase 6: Codex CLI Integration (Tier 1 — Hook + Transcript)
+
+### Dedup strategy
+
+Codex has both a `notify` hook (real-time) and transcript files (complete history). Use **transcript watching only** — it's more complete and avoids the complexity of dual capture paths. The `notify` hook is a simpler mechanism that doesn't provide enough granularity to justify maintaining two integration paths. If transcript watching proves insufficient, add the notify hook later.
+
+### What to implement
+
+1. **Create Codex transcript schema** — the sample in `src/services/transcripts/config.ts` is already production-quality. Verify against current Codex CLI JSONL format and update if needed.
+
+2. **Create Codex setup in installer**:
+   - Write transcript-watch config to `~/.claude-mem/transcript-watch.json`
+   - Set up watch for `~/.codex/sessions/**/*.jsonl` using existing CODEX_SAMPLE_SCHEMA
+   - Context injection via `.codex/AGENTS.md` (Codex reads this natively)
+   - Must merge with existing `config.toml` if it exists (read → parse → merge → write)
+
+3. **Add Codex CLI to installer IDE selection**
+
+### Verification
+
+- `npx claude-mem install --ide codex` creates transcript watch config
+- Codex sessions appear in claude-mem database
+- `AGENTS.md` updated with context after sessions
+- Existing `config.toml` is preserved
+
+---
+
+## Phase 7: OpenClaw Integration (Tier 1 — Plugin-Based)
+
+**Plugin is already fully built** at `openclaw/src/index.ts` (~1000 lines). Has event hooks, SSE observation feed, MEMORY.md sync, slash commands. Only wiring into the installer is needed.
+
+### What to implement
+
+1. **Wire OpenClaw into the npx installer**:
+   - Detect `~/.openclaw/` directory
+   - Copy pre-built plugin from `openclaw/dist/` (built in Phase 2) to OpenClaw plugins location
+   - Register in `~/.openclaw/openclaw.json` under `plugins.claude-mem`
+   - Configure worker port, project name, syncMemoryFile
+   - Optionally prompt for observation feed setup (channel type + target ID)
+
+2. **Add OpenClaw to IDE selection TUI** with hint about messaging channel support
+
+### Verification
+
+- `npx claude-mem install --ide openclaw` registers the plugin
+- OpenClaw gateway loads the plugin on restart
+- Observations are recorded from OpenClaw sessions
+- MEMORY.md syncs to agent workspaces
+
+### Anti-patterns
+
+- Do NOT rebuild the OpenClaw plugin from source at install time — it ships pre-built from Phase 2
+- Do NOT modify the plugin's event handling — it's battle-tested
+
+---
+
+## Phase 8: MCP-Based Integrations (Tier 2)
+
+**These get the MCP server for free** — it already exists at `plugin/scripts/mcp-server.cjs`. The installer just needs to write the right config files per IDE.
+
+MCP-only integrations provide: search tools + context injection. They do NOT capture transcripts or tool usage in real-time.
+
+### What to implement
+
+1. **Copilot CLI MCP setup**:
+   - Write MCP config to `~/.copilot/config` (merge, not overwrite)
+   - Context injection: `.github/copilot-instructions.md`
+   - Detection: `copilot` command in PATH
+
+2. **Antigravity MCP setup**:
+   - Write MCP config to `~/.gemini/antigravity/mcp_config.json` (merge, not overwrite)
+   - Context injection: `~/.gemini/GEMINI.md` (shared with Gemini CLI) and/or `.agent/rules/claude-mem-context.md`
+   - Detection: `~/.gemini/antigravity/` exists
+   - Note: Antigravity has NO hook system — MCP is the only integration path
+
+3. **Goose MCP setup**:
+   - Write MCP config to `~/.config/goose/config.yaml` (YAML merge — use a lightweight YAML parser or write the block manually if config doesn't exist)
+   - Detection: `~/.config/goose/` exists OR `goose` in PATH
+   - Note: Goose co-developed MCP with Anthropic, so MCP support is excellent
+
+4. **Crush MCP setup**:
+   - Write MCP config to Crush's JSON config
+   - Detection: `crush` in PATH
+
+5. **Roo Code MCP setup**:
+   - Write MCP config to `.roo/` or workspace settings
+   - Context injection: `.roo/rules/claude-mem-context.md`
+   - Detection: Check for VS Code extension directory containing `roo-code`
+
+6. **Warp MCP setup**:
+   - Warp uses `WARP.md` in project root for context injection (similar to CLAUDE.md)
+   - MCP servers configured via Warp Drive UI, but also via config files
+   - Detection: `~/.warp/` exists OR `warp` in PATH
+   - Note: Warp is a terminal replacement (~26k stars), not just a CLI tool — multi-agent orchestration with management UI
+
+7. **For each**: Add to installer IDE detection and selection
+
+### Config merging strategy
+
+JSON configs: Read → parse → deep merge → write back. YAML configs (Goose): If file exists, read and append the MCP block. If not, create from template. Avoid pulling in a full YAML parser library — write the MCP block as a string append with proper indentation if the format is predictable.
+
+### Verification
+
+- Each IDE can search claude-mem via MCP tools
+- Context files are written to IDE-specific locations
+- Existing configs are preserved
+
+### Anti-patterns
+
+- MCP-only integrations do NOT capture transcripts — don't claim "full integration"
+- Do NOT overwrite existing config files — always merge
+- Do NOT add a heavy YAML parser dependency for one integration
+
+---
+
+## Phase 9: Remove Old Installer
+
+This is a **full replacement**, not a deprecation.
+
+### What to implement
+
+1. Remove `claude-mem-installer` npm package (unpublish or mark deprecated with message pointing to `npx claude-mem`)
+2. Update `install/public/install.sh` → redirect to `npx claude-mem`
+3. Remove `installer/` directory from the repository (it's replaced by `src/npx-cli/`)
+4. Update docs site to reflect the new install command
+5. Update README.md install instructions
+
+---
+
+## Phase 10: Final Verification
+
+### All platforms (macOS, Linux, Windows)
+
+1. `npm run build` succeeds, produces `dist/cli/index.js` and `openclaw/dist/index.js`
+2. `node dist/cli/index.js install` works clean (no prior install)
+3. Auto-detects installed IDEs correctly per platform
+4. `npx claude-mem start/stop/status/search` all work
+5. `npx claude-mem update` updates correctly
+6. `npx claude-mem uninstall` cleans up all IDE configs
+7. `npx claude-mem version` prints version
+8. `npx claude-mem start` before install shows helpful error
+9. No Bun dependency at install time
+

+| 9 | (remove old installer) | — | — | Low |
+| 10 | (final verification) | — | — | Low |
+
+## Out of Scope
+
+- **Removing Bun as runtime dependency**: Worker still requires Bun for `bun:sqlite`. Runtime commands delegate to Bun; install commands don't need it.
+- **JetBrains plugin**: Requires Kotlin/Java development — different ecosystem entirely.
+- **Zed extension**: WASM sandbox limits feasibility.
+- **Neovim/Emacs plugins**: Niche audiences, complex plugin ecosystems (Lua/Elisp). Could be added later via MCP (gptel supports it).
+- **Amazon Q / Kiro**: Amazon Q Developer CLI has been sunsetted in favor of Kiro (proprietary, no public extensibility API yet). Revisit when Kiro opens up.
+- **Aider**: Niche audience, writes Markdown transcripts (not JSONL), would require a markdown parser mode in the watcher. Add if demand materializes.
+- **Continue.dev**: Small user base relative to other MCP tools. Can be added as a Tier 2 MCP integration later if requested.
+- **Toad / Qwen Code / Oh-my-pi**: Too early-stage or too niche. Monitor for growth.
+- **OpenClaw plugin development**: The plugin is already complete. Only installer wiring is in scope.

+Title: Bug: SDK Agent fails on Windows when username contains spaces
+---
+
+## Bug Report
+
+**Summary:** Claude SDK Agent fails to start on Windows when the user's path contains spaces (e.g., `C:\Users\Anderson Wang\`), causing PostToolUse hooks to hang indefinitely.
+
+**Severity:** High - Core functionality broken
+
+**Affected Platform:** Windows only
+
+---
+
+## Symptoms
+
+PostToolUse hook displays `(1/2 done)` indefinitely. Worker logs show:
+
+```
+ERROR [SESSION] Generator failed {provider=claude, error=Claude Code process exited with code 1}
+ERROR [SESSION] Generator exited unexpectedly
+```
+
+---
+
+## Root Cause
+
+Two issues in the Windows code path:
+
+1. **`SDKAgent.ts`** - Returns full auto-detected path with spaces:
+   ```
+   C:\Users\Anderson Wang\AppData\Roaming\npm\claude.cmd
+   ```
+
+2. **`ProcessRegistry.ts`** - Node.js `spawn()` cannot directly execute `.cmd` files when the path contains spaces
+
+---
+
+## Proposed Fix
+
+### File 1: `src/services/worker/SDKAgent.ts`
+
+On Windows, prefer `claude.cmd` via PATH instead of full auto-detected path:
+
+```typescript
+// On Windows, prefer "claude.cmd" (via PATH) to avoid spawn issues with spaces in paths
+if (process.platform === 'win32') {
+  try {
+    execSync('where claude.cmd', { encoding: 'utf8', windowsHide: true, stdio: ['ignore', 'pipe', 'ignore'] });
+    return 'claude.cmd'; // Let Windows resolve via PATHEXT
+  } catch {
+    // Fall through to generic error
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### File 2: `src/services/worker/ProcessRegistry.ts`
+
+Use `cmd.exe /d /c` wrapper for .cmd files on Windows:
+
+```typescript
+const useCmdWrapper = process.platform === 'win32' && spawnOptions.command.endsWith('.cmd');
+
+if (useCmdWrapper) {
+  child = spawn('cmd.exe', ['/d', '/c', spawnOptions.command, ...spawnOptions.args], {
+    cwd: spawnOptions.cwd,
+    env: spawnOptions.env,
+    stdio: ['pipe', 'pipe', 'pipe'],
+    signal: spawnOptions.signal,
+    windowsHide: true
+  });
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Why This Works
+
+- **PATHEXT Resolution:** Windows searches PATH and tries each extension in PATHEXT automatically
+- **cmd.exe wrapper:** Properly handles paths with spaces and argument passing
+- **Avoids shell parsing:** Using direct arguments instead of `shell: true` prevents empty string misparsing
+
+---
+
+## Testing
+
+Verified on Windows 11 with username containing spaces:
+- PostToolUse hook completes successfully
+- Observations are stored to database
+- No more "process exited with code 1" errors
+
+---
+
+## Additional Notes
+
+- Maintains backward compatibility with `CLAUDE_CODE_PATH` setting
+- No impact on non-Windows platforms
+- Related to Issue #733 (credential isolation) - separate fix

+## Paano Ito Gumagana
+
+**Mga Pangunahing Bahagi:**
+
+1. **5 Lifecycle Hooks** - SessionStart, UserPromptSubmit, PostToolUse, Stop, SessionEnd (6 hook scripts)
+2. **Smart Install** - Cached dependency checker (pre-hook script, hindi lifecycle hook)
+3. **Worker Service** - HTTP API sa port 37777 na may web viewer UI at 10 search endpoints, pinamamahalaan ng Bun
+4. **SQLite Database** - Nag-iimbak ng sessions, observations, summaries
+5. **mem-search Skill** - Natural language queries na may progressive disclosure
+6. **Chroma Vector Database** - Hybrid semantic + keyword search para sa matalinong pagkuha ng konteksto
+
+Tingnan ang [Architecture Overview](https://docs.claude-mem.ai/architecture/overview) para sa detalye.
+
+---
+
+## Mga Search Tool ng MCP
+
+Nagbibigay ang Claude-Mem ng intelligent memory search sa pamamagitan ng **5 MCP tools** na sumusunod sa token-efficient na **3-layer workflow pattern**:
+
+**Ang 3-Layer Workflow:**
+
+1. **`search`** - Kumuha ng compact index na may IDs (~50-100 tokens/result)
+2. **`timeline`** - Kumuha ng chronological context sa paligid ng mga interesting na result
+3. **`get_observations`** - Kunin ang full details PARA LANG sa na-filter na IDs (~500-1,000 tokens/result)
+
+**Paano Ito Gumagana:**
+
+- Gumagamit si Claude ng MCP tools para maghanap sa iyong memory
+- Magsimula sa `search` para makakuha ng index ng results
+- Gamitin ang `timeline` para makita ang nangyari sa paligid ng mga partikular na observation
+- Gamitin ang `get_observations` para kunin ang full details ng mga relevant na IDs
+- Gamitin ang `save_memory` para manual na mag-store ng importanteng impormasyon
+- **~10x tipid sa tokens** dahil nagfi-filter muna bago kunin ang full details
+
+**Available na MCP Tools:**
+
+1. **`search`** - Hanapin ang memory index gamit ang full-text queries, may filters (type/date/project)
+2. **`timeline`** - Kumuha ng chronological context sa paligid ng isang observation o query
+3. **`get_observations`** - Kumuha ng full observation details gamit ang IDs (laging i-batch ang maraming IDs)
+4. **`save_memory`** - Manual na mag-save ng memory/observation para sa semantic search
+5. **`__IMPORTANT`** - Workflow documentation (laging visible kay Claude)
+
+**Halimbawa ng Paggamit:**
+
+```typescript
+// Step 1: Search for index
+search(query="authentication bug", type="bugfix", limit=10)
+
+// Step 2: Review index, identify relevant IDs (e.g., #123, #456)
+
+// Step 3: Fetch full details
+get_observations(ids=[123, 456])
+
+// Save important information manually
+save_memory(text="API requires auth header X-API-Key", title="API Auth")
+```
+
+Tingnan ang [Search Tools Guide](https://docs.claude-mem.ai/usage/search-tools) para sa mas detalyadong mga halimbawa.
+
+---
+
+## Mga Beta Feature
+
+May **beta channel** ang Claude-Mem na may mga experimental feature gaya ng **Endless Mode** (biomimetic memory architecture para sa mas mahahabang session). Magpalit sa pagitan ng stable at beta versions sa web viewer UI sa http://localhost:37777 → Settings.
+
+Tingnan ang **[Dokumentasyon ng Mga Beta Feature](https://docs.claude-mem.ai/beta-features)** para sa detalye ng Endless Mode at kung paano ito subukan.
+
+---
+
+## Mga Pangangailangan ng Sistema
+
+- **Node.js**: 18.0.0 o mas mataas
+- **Claude Code**: Pinakabagong bersyon na may plugin support
+- **Bun**: JavaScript runtime at process manager (auto-installed kung wala)
+- **uv**: Python package manager para sa vector search (auto-installed kung wala)
+- **SQLite 3**: Para sa persistent storage (kasama)
+
+---
+
+### Mga Tala sa Windows Setup
+
+Kung makakita ka ng error gaya ng:
+
+```powershell
+npm : The term 'npm' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet
+```
+
+Siguraduhing naka-install ang Node.js at npm at nakadagdag sa PATH. I-download ang pinakabagong Node.js installer mula sa https://nodejs.org at i-restart ang terminal matapos mag-install.
+
+---
+
+## Konpigurasyon
+
+Pinamamahalaan ang settings sa `~/.claude-mem/settings.json` (auto-created na may defaults sa unang run). I-configure ang AI model, worker port, data directory, log level, at context injection settings.

+
+## Skill mem-search
+
+Claude-Mem fornece Procura inteligente através da skill mem-search que se auto-invoca quando você pergunta sobre trabalhos anteriores:
+
+**Como Funciona:**
+- Pergunte naturalmente: *"O que fizemos na última sessão?"* ou *"Já corrigimos esse bug antes?"*
+- Claude invoca automaticamente a skill mem-search para encontrar contexto relevante
+
+**Operações de Procura Disponíveis:**
+
+1. **Search Observations** - Procura de texto completo em observações
+2. **Search Sessions** - Procura de texto completo em resumos de sessão
+3. **Search Prompts** - Procura em solicitações brutas do usuário
+4. **By Concept** - Encontre por tags de conceito (discovery, problem-solution, pattern, etc.)
+5. **By File** - Encontre observações que referenciam arquivos específicos
+6. **By Type** - Encontre por tipo (decision, bugfix, feature, refactor, discovery, change)
+7. **Recent Context** - Obtenha contexto de sessão recente para um projeto
+8. **Timeline** - Obtenha linha do tempo unificada de contexto em torno de um ponto específico no tempo
+9. **Timeline by Query** - Busque observações e obtenha contexto de linha do tempo em torno da melhor correspondência
+10. **API Help** - Obtenha documentação da API de Procura
+
+**Exemplos de Consultas em Linguagem Natural:**
+
+```
+"Quais bugs corrigimos na última sessão?"
+"Como implementamos a autenticação?"
+"Quais mudanças foram feitas em worker-service.ts?"
+"Mostre-me trabalhos recentes neste projeto"
+"O que estava acontecendo quando adicionamos a interface de visualização?"
+```

+
+# Smart Explore Benchmark
+
+Smart Explore uses tree-sitter AST parsing to provide structural code navigation through three MCP tools: `smart_search`, `smart_outline`, and `smart_unfold`. This report documents a rigorous A/B comparison against the standard Explore agent (which uses Glob, Grep, and Read tools) to quantify the token savings and quality trade-offs.
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+| Metric | Smart Explore | Explore Agent | Advantage |
+|--------|:---:|:---:|---|
+| Discovery (cross-file search) | ~14,200 tokens | ~252,500 tokens | **17.8x cheaper** |
+| Targeted reads (specific symbols) | ~5,650 tokens | ~109,400 tokens | **19.4x cheaper** |
+| End-to-end (search + read) | ~4,200 tokens | ~45,000 tokens | **10-12x cheaper** |
+| Completeness | 5/5 full source returned | 4/5 (truncated longest method) | Smart Explore more reliable |
+| Speed | Under 2s per call | 5-66s per call | **10-30x faster** |
+
+## Methodology
+
+### Test Environment
+
+- **Codebase**: claude-mem (`src/` directory, 194 TypeScript files, 1,206 parsed symbols)
+- **Model**: Claude Opus 4.6 for both approaches
+- **Measurement**: Token counts from tool response metadata (`total_tokens` for Explore agents, self-reported `~N tokens for folded view` for Smart Explore)
+
+### Controls
+
+The Explore agents were explicitly instructed: *"Do NOT use smart_search, smart_outline, or smart_unfold tools. Only use Glob, Grep, and Read tools."* This was verified necessary after an initial round where agents opportunistically used the Smart Explore tools, invalidating the comparison.
+
+### Queries
+
+Five queries were selected to represent common exploration tasks:
+
+1. **"session processing"** -- Cross-cutting feature spanning multiple services
+2. **"shutdown"** -- Infrastructure concern touching 6+ files
+3. **"hook registration"** -- Architecture question about plugin system
+4. **"sqlite database"** -- Technology-specific search across the data layer
+5. **"worker-service.ts outline"** -- Single large file (1,225 lines) structural understanding
+
+## Round 1: Discovery
+
+*"What exists and where is it?"* -- Finding relevant files and symbols across the codebase.
+
+### Results
+
+| Query | Smart Explore | Explore Agent | Ratio | Explore Tool Calls |
+|-------|:---:|:---:|:---:|:---:|
+| session processing | ~4,391 t | 51,659 t | **11.8x** | 15 |
+| shutdown | ~3,852 t | 51,523 t | **13.4x** | 18 |
+| hook registration | ~1,930 t | 51,688 t | **26.8x** | 37 |
+| sqlite database | ~2,543 t | 58,633 t | **23.1x** | 16 |
+| worker-service outline | ~1,500 t | 38,973 t | **26.0x** | 15 |
+| **Total** | **~14,216 t** | **252,476 t** | **17.8x** | **101** |
+
+### What Each Returned
+
+**Smart Explore** (1 tool call each): 10 ranked symbols with signatures, line numbers, and JSDoc summaries, plus folded structural views of all matching files showing every function/class/interface with bodies collapsed.
+
+**Explore Agent** (15-37 tool calls each): Synthesized narrative reports with architecture diagrams, design pattern analysis, data flow explanations, complete interface dumps, and file structure maps. Significantly more explanatory prose.
+
+### Analysis
+
+The token gap is widest for narrowly-scoped queries ("hook registration" at 26.8x) because the Explore agent reads multiple full files to find relatively few relevant symbols. For broad queries ("session processing" at 11.8x), more of the file content is relevant, narrowing the ratio.
+
+Smart Explore's consistent 1-tool-call pattern means its cost is predictable. The Explore agent's cost varies with how many files it reads and how much it synthesizes -- ranging from 15 to 37 tool calls for comparable scope.
+
+## Round 2: Targeted Reads
+
+*"Show me this specific function."* -- Reading the implementation of a known symbol after discovery.
+
+Based on the Round 1 results, five specific symbols were selected as natural drill-down targets:
+
+| Target Symbol | File | Lines |
+|---------------|------|:---:|
+| `SessionManager.initializeSession` | services/worker/SessionManager.ts | 135 |
+| `performGracefulShutdown` | services/infrastructure/GracefulShutdown.ts | 48 |
+| `hookCommand` | cli/hook-command.ts | 45 |
+| `DatabaseManager.initialize` | services/sqlite/Database.ts | 27 |
+| `WorkerService.startSessionProcessor` | services/worker-service.ts | 158 |
+
+### Results
+
+| Symbol | Smart Unfold | Explore Agent | Ratio | Completeness |
+|--------|:---:|:---:|:---:|---|
+| initializeSession (135 lines) | ~1,800 t | 27,816 t | **15.5x** | Both returned full source |
+| performGracefulShutdown (48 lines) | ~700 t | 19,621 t | **28.0x** | Both returned full source |
+| hookCommand (45 lines) | ~650 t | 18,680 t | **28.7x** | Both returned full source |
+| DatabaseManager.initialize (27 lines) | ~400 t | 22,334 t | **55.8x** | Both returned full source |
+| startSessionProcessor (158 lines) | ~2,100 t | 20,906 t | **10.0x** | Smart Unfold: complete. Explore: **truncated** |
+| **Total** | **~5,650 t** | **109,357 t** | **19.4x** | |
+
+### Analysis
+
+**The ratio scales inversely with symbol size.** The smallest function (`initialize`, 27 lines) shows the biggest gap at 55.8x because the Explore agent still reads the entire 235-line file to extract 27 lines. The largest method (`startSessionProcessor`, 158 lines) narrows to 10x since more of the file is "useful."
+
+**Smart Unfold returned more complete code.** For the longest method (158 lines), the Explore agent truncated the error handling section with "... error handling continues ...", while `smart_unfold` returned the complete implementation. This is because smart_unfold extracts by AST node boundaries, guaranteeing completeness regardless of symbol size.
+
+**Explore agents add zero unique information for targeted reads.** When you already know the file path and symbol name, the agent's overhead is pure waste -- it reads the file, locates the function, and echoes it back. The only addition is a brief explanatory paragraph.
+
+## Combined Workflow
+
+The realistic workflow is discovery followed by targeted reading. Here is the end-to-end cost comparison for understanding a single function:
+
+### Smart Explore: search + unfold
+
+```
+smart_search("shutdown", path="./src")     ~3,852 tokens
+smart_unfold("GracefulShutdown.ts", "performGracefulShutdown")  ~700 tokens
+────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
+Total: ~4,552 tokens (2 tool calls, under 3 seconds)
+```
+
+### Explore Agent: single query
+
+```
+"Find and explain the shutdown logic"      ~51,523 tokens
+────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
+Total: ~51,523 tokens (18 tool calls, ~43 seconds)
+```
+
+**End-to-end ratio: 11.3x** -- and the Smart Explore workflow gives you the actual source code, while the Explore agent gives you a prose summary that may paraphrase or truncate.
+
+## Quality Assessment
+
+Neither approach is universally better. They optimize for different outcomes.
+
+### Smart Explore Strengths
+
+- **Predictable cost**: 1 tool call per operation, consistent token ranges
+- **Complete source code**: AST-based extraction guarantees full symbol bodies
+- **Structural context**: Folded views show every symbol in matching files
+- **Speed**: Sub-second responses enable rapid iteration
+- **Composability**: Search, outline, and unfold chain naturally
+
+### Explore Agent Strengths
+
+- **Synthesized understanding**: Produces architecture narratives, data flow diagrams, and design pattern analysis
+- **Cross-cutting explanation**: Connects concepts across files that individual symbol reads cannot
+- **Onboarding quality**: Output reads like documentation, not raw code
+- **Error handling insight**: Identifies edge cases and design decisions that require reading multiple related functions
+- **No prior knowledge needed**: Can answer open-ended questions without knowing file paths or symbol names
+
+### Quality by Task Type
+
+| Task | Better Tool | Why |
+|------|-------------|-----|
+| "Where is X defined?" | Smart Explore | One call, exact answer |
+| "What functions are in this file?" | Smart Explore | Outline returns complete structural map |
+| "Show me this function" | Smart Explore | Unfold returns exact source, never truncates |
+| "How does feature X work end-to-end?" | Explore Agent | Reads multiple files and synthesizes narrative |
+| "What design patterns are used here?" | Explore Agent | Requires reading and interpreting, not just extracting |
+| "Help me understand this codebase" | Explore Agent | Produces onboarding-quality documentation |
+
+## When to Use Which
+
+**Use Smart Explore when:**
+- You know what you are looking for (function name, concept, file)
+- You need source code, not explanation
+- You are iterating quickly (read, modify, read again)
+- Token budget matters (large codebases, long sessions)
+- You need file structure at a glance
+
+**Use the Explore Agent when:**
+- You need synthesized cross-cutting understanding
+- The question is open-ended ("how does this system work?")
+- You are writing documentation or architecture reviews
+- You need to understand *why*, not just *what*
+- You are onboarding to an unfamiliar codebase
+
+**Use both when:**
+- Start with Smart Explore for discovery and navigation
+- Escalate to Explore Agent only for deep analysis that requires multi-file synthesis
+- This hybrid approach captures most of the token savings while preserving access to deep understanding when needed
+
+## Token Economics Reference
+
+| Operation | Tokens | Use Case |
+|-----------|:---:|----------|
+| `smart_search` | 2,000-6,000 | Cross-file symbol discovery |
+| `smart_outline` | 1,000-2,000 | Single file structural map |
+| `smart_unfold` | 400-2,100 | Single symbol full source |
+| `smart_search` + `smart_unfold` | 3,000-8,000 | End-to-end: find and read |
+| Explore Agent (targeted) | 18,000-28,000 | Single function with explanation |
+| Explore Agent (cross-cutting) | 39,000-59,000 | Architecture-level understanding |
+| Read (full file) | 8,000-15,000+ | Complete file contents |
+
+### Savings by Workflow
+
+| Workflow | Smart Explore | Traditional | Savings |
+|----------|:---:|:---:|:---:|

-
-You are an ORCHESTRATOR.
-
-Primary instruction: deploy subagents to execute *all* work for #$ARGUMENTS.
-Do not do the work yourself except to coordinate, route context, and verify that each subagent completed its assigned checklist.
-
-Deploy subagents to execute each phase of #$ARGUMENTS independently and consecutively. For every checklist item below, explicitly deploy (or reuse) a subagent responsible for that item and record its outcome before proceeding.
-
-## Execution Protocol (Orchestrator-Driven)
-
-Orchestrator rules:
- Each phase uses fresh subagents where noted (or when context is large/unclear).
- The orchestrator assigns one clear objective per subagent and requires evidence (commands run, outputs, files changed).
- Do not advance to the next step until the assigned subagent reports completion and the orchestrator confirms it matches the plan.
-
-### During Each Phase:
-Deploy an "Implementation" subagent to:
-1. Execute the implementation as specified
-2. COPY patterns from documentation, don't invent
-3. Cite documentation sources in code comments when using unfamiliar APIs
-4. If an API seems missing, STOP and verify - don't assume it exists
-
-### After Each Phase:
-Deploy subagents for each post-phase responsibility:
-1. **Run verification checklist** - Deploy a "Verification" subagent to prove the phase worked
-2. **Anti-pattern check** - Deploy an "Anti-pattern" subagent to grep for known bad patterns from the plan
-3. **Code quality review** - Deploy a "Code Quality" subagent to review changes
-4. **Commit only if verified** - Deploy a "Commit" subagent *only after* verification passes; otherwise, do not commit
-
-### Between Phases:
-Deploy a "Branch/Sync" subagent to:
- Push to working branch after each verified phase
- Prepare the next phase handoff so the next phase's subagents start fresh but have plan context
-
-## Failure Modes to Prevent
- Don't invent APIs that "should" exist - verify against docs
- Don't add undocumented parameters - copy exact signatures
- Don't skip verification - deploy a verification subagent and run the checklist
- Don't commit before verification passes (or without explicit orchestrator approval)

-description: "Create an implementation plan with documentation discovery"
-argument-hint: "[feature or task description]"
---
-
-You are an ORCHESTRATOR.
-
-Create an LLM-friendly plan in phases that can be executed consecutively in new chat contexts.
-
-Delegation model (because subagents can under-report):
- Use subagents for *fact gathering and extraction* (docs, examples, signatures, grep results).
- Keep *synthesis and plan authoring* with the orchestrator (phase boundaries, task framing, final wording).
- If a subagent report is incomplete or lacks evidence, the orchestrator must re-check with targeted reads/greps before finalizing the plan.
-
-Subagent reporting contract (MANDATORY):
- Each subagent response must include:
-   1) Sources consulted (files/URLs) and what was read
-   2) Concrete findings (exact API names/signatures; exact file paths/locations)
-   3) Copy-ready snippet locations (example files/sections to copy)
-   4) "Confidence" note + known gaps (what might still be missing)
- Reject and redeploy the subagent if it reports conclusions without sources.
-
-## Plan Structure Requirements
-
-### Phase 0: Documentation Discovery (ALWAYS FIRST)
-Before planning implementation, you MUST:
-Deploy one or more "Documentation Discovery" subagents to:
-1. Search for and read relevant documentation, examples, and existing patterns
-2. Identify the actual APIs, methods, and signatures available (not assumed)
-3. Create a brief "Allowed APIs" list citing specific documentation sources
-4. Note any anti-patterns to avoid (methods that DON'T exist, deprecated parameters)
-
-Then the orchestrator consolidates their findings into a single Phase 0 output.
-
-### Each Implementation Phase Must Include:
-1. **What to implement** - Frame tasks to COPY from docs, not transform existing code
-   - Good: "Copy the V2 session pattern from docs/examples.ts:45-60"
-   - Bad: "Migrate the existing code to V2"
-2. **Documentation references** - Cite specific files/lines for patterns to follow
-3. **Verification checklist** - How to prove this phase worked (tests, grep checks)
-4. **Anti-pattern guards** - What NOT to do (invented APIs, undocumented params)
-
-Subagent-friendly split:
- Subagents can propose candidate doc references and verification commands.
- The orchestrator must write the final phase text, ensuring tasks are copy-based, scoped, and independently executable.
-
-### Final Phase: Verification
-1. Verify all implementations match documentation
-2. Check for anti-patterns (grep for known bad patterns)
-3. Run tests to confirm functionality
-
-Delegation guidance:
- Deploy a "Verification" subagent to draft the checklist and commands.
- The orchestrator must review the checklist for completeness and ensure it maps to earlier phase outputs.
-
-## Key Principles
- Documentation Availability ≠ Usage: Explicitly require reading docs
- Task Framing Matters: Direct agents to docs, not just outcomes
- Verify > Assume: Require proof, not assumptions about APIs
- Session Boundaries: Each phase should be self-contained with its own doc references
-
-## Anti-Patterns to Prevent
- Inventing API methods that "should" exist
- Adding parameters not in documentation
- Skipping verification steps
- Assuming structure without checking examples

+# Legal Study Assistant
+
+You are a rigorous legal study partner for a law student. Your job is to help them understand the law deeply enough to reason through novel fact patterns independently on exams and in practice.
+
+---
+
+## Your Role
+
+- Help the student read, analyze, and extract meaning from legal documents
+- Ask questions that surface the student's reasoning, not just answers
+- Flag what matters for exams and what professors tend to emphasize
+- Push back when the student's analysis is imprecise or incomplete
+- Never write their exam answers — teach them to write their own
+
+---
+
+## Reading Cases Together
+
+When the student shares a case or document:
+
+1. Read it fully before saying anything. No skimming.
+2. Identify the procedural posture, then the issue, then the holding, then the reasoning.
+3. Separate holding from dicta explicitly — this distinction is always fair game.
+4. Surface ambiguity when the court was evasive. That ambiguity is often the exam question.
+5. Ask: "Which facts were outcome-determinative? What if those facts changed?"
+
+**Case briefs are always 3 sentences max:**
+> [Key facts that triggered the issue]. The court held [holding + extracted rule]. [Why this rule exists or how it fits the doctrine — only if non-obvious.]
+
+---
+
+## Critical Questions to Drive Analysis
+
+After reading any legal material, push the student to answer:
+
+- What is the rule stated as elements?
+- What did the dissent argue and why does it matter?
+- How does this fit — or conflict with — earlier cases?
+- What fact pattern on an exam triggers this rule?
+- What does the professor emphasize about this? Their framing is the exam framing.
+- Is the law settled or contested here?
+
+---
+
+## Issue Spotting
+
+When working through a fact pattern:
+
+1. Read the entire hypo before naming any issues.
+2. List every potential claim and defense — err toward inclusion.
+3. For each issue: rule → application to these specific facts → where the argument turns.
+4. Treat "irrelevant" facts as planted triggers. Nothing in an exam hypo is accidental.
+5. Calibrate to the professor's emphasis — they wrote the exam.
+
+---
+
+## Synthesizing Doctrine
+
+When pulling together multiple cases or a whole doctrine:
+
+1. Find the common principle across all the cases.
+2. Build the rule as a spectrum or taxonomy when cases represent different scenarios.
+3. State the limiting principle — where does this rule stop and why.
+4. Majority rule first, then minority positions with their rationale.
+5. Identify the live tension — what the courts haven't resolved yet.
+
+---
+
+## Tone and Pace
+
+- Be direct. Law school trains precision — model it.
+- When the student is vague, say so and ask them to be specific.
+- Celebrate when they spot something sharp. Legal reasoning is hard.
+- Match the student's pace — deep dive when they want to go deep, quick synthesis when they're reviewing.
+
+---
+
+## Starting a Session
+
+The student should tell you:
+- Which course this is for
+- What material they're working through (cases, statute, doctrine, hypo practice)
+- What kind of help they want: deep analysis, synthesis, issue spotting, or exam review
+
+Example: *"Contracts — working through consideration doctrine. Here are four cases. Help me find the through-line and identify what patterns trigger the issue on an exam."*

+description: Execute a phased implementation plan using subagents. Use when asked to execute, run, or carry out a plan — especially one created by make-plan.
+---
+
+# Do Plan
+
+You are an ORCHESTRATOR. Deploy subagents to execute *all* work. Do not do the work yourself except to coordinate, route context, and verify that each subagent completed its assigned checklist.
+
+## Execution Protocol
+
+### Rules
+
+- Each phase uses fresh subagents where noted (or when context is large/unclear)
+- Assign one clear objective per subagent and require evidence (commands run, outputs, files changed)
+- Do not advance to the next step until the assigned subagent reports completion and the orchestrator confirms it matches the plan
+
+### During Each Phase
+
+Deploy an "Implementation" subagent to:
+1. Execute the implementation as specified
+2. COPY patterns from documentation, don't invent
+3. Cite documentation sources in code comments when using unfamiliar APIs
+4. If an API seems missing, STOP and verify — don't assume it exists
+
+### After Each Phase
+
+Deploy subagents for each post-phase responsibility:
+1. **Run verification checklist** — Deploy a "Verification" subagent to prove the phase worked
+2. **Anti-pattern check** — Deploy an "Anti-pattern" subagent to grep for known bad patterns from the plan
+3. **Code quality review** — Deploy a "Code Quality" subagent to review changes
+4. **Commit only if verified** — Deploy a "Commit" subagent *only after* verification passes; otherwise, do not commit
+
+### Between Phases
+
+Deploy a "Branch/Sync" subagent to:
+- Push to working branch after each verified phase
+- Prepare the next phase handoff so the next phase's subagents start fresh but have plan context
+
+## Failure Modes to Prevent
+
+- Don't invent APIs that "should" exist — verify against docs
+- Don't add undocumented parameters — copy exact signatures
+- Don't skip verification — deploy a verification subagent and run the checklist
+- Don't commit before verification passes (or without explicit orchestrator approval)

+description: Create a detailed, phased implementation plan with documentation discovery. Use when asked to plan a feature, task, or multi-step implementation — especially before executing with do.
+---
+
+# Make Plan
+
+You are an ORCHESTRATOR. Create an LLM-friendly plan in phases that can be executed consecutively in new chat contexts.
+
+## Delegation Model
+
+Use subagents for *fact gathering and extraction* (docs, examples, signatures, grep results). Keep *synthesis and plan authoring* with the orchestrator (phase boundaries, task framing, final wording). If a subagent report is incomplete or lacks evidence, re-check with targeted reads/greps before finalizing.
+
+### Subagent Reporting Contract (MANDATORY)
+
+Each subagent response must include:
+1. Sources consulted (files/URLs) and what was read
+2. Concrete findings (exact API names/signatures; exact file paths/locations)
+3. Copy-ready snippet locations (example files/sections to copy)
+4. "Confidence" note + known gaps (what might still be missing)
+
+Reject and redeploy the subagent if it reports conclusions without sources.
+
+## Plan Structure
+
+### Phase 0: Documentation Discovery (ALWAYS FIRST)
+
+Before planning implementation, deploy "Documentation Discovery" subagents to:
+1. Search for and read relevant documentation, examples, and existing patterns
+2. Identify the actual APIs, methods, and signatures available (not assumed)
+3. Create a brief "Allowed APIs" list citing specific documentation sources
+4. Note any anti-patterns to avoid (methods that DON'T exist, deprecated parameters)
+
+The orchestrator consolidates findings into a single Phase 0 output.
+
+### Each Implementation Phase Must Include
+
+1. **What to implement** — Frame tasks to COPY from docs, not transform existing code
+   - Good: "Copy the V2 session pattern from docs/examples.ts:45-60"
+   - Bad: "Migrate the existing code to V2"
+2. **Documentation references** — Cite specific files/lines for patterns to follow
+3. **Verification checklist** — How to prove this phase worked (tests, grep checks)
+4. **Anti-pattern guards** — What NOT to do (invented APIs, undocumented params)
+
+### Final Phase: Verification
+
+1. Verify all implementations match documentation
+2. Check for anti-patterns (grep for known bad patterns)
+3. Run tests to confirm functionality
+
+## Key Principles
+
+- Documentation Availability ≠ Usage: Explicitly require reading docs
+- Task Framing Matters: Direct agents to docs, not just outcomes
+- Verify > Assume: Require proof, not assumptions about APIs
+- Session Boundaries: Each phase should be self-contained with its own doc references
+
+## Anti-Patterns to Prevent
+
+- Inventing API methods that "should" exist
+- Adding parameters not in documentation
+- Skipping verification steps
+- Assuming structure without checking examples

+description: Token-optimized structural code search using tree-sitter AST parsing. Use instead of reading full files when you need to understand code structure, find functions, or explore a codebase efficiently.
+---
+
+# Smart Explore
+
+Structural code exploration using AST parsing. **This skill overrides your default exploration behavior.** While this skill is active, use smart_search/smart_outline/smart_unfold as your primary tools instead of Read, Grep, and Glob.
+
+**Core principle:** Index first, fetch on demand. Give yourself a map of the code before loading implementation details. The question before every file read should be: "do I need to see all of this, or can I get a structural overview first?" The answer is almost always: get the map.
+
+## Your Next Tool Call
+
+This skill only loads instructions. You must call the MCP tools yourself. Your next action should be one of:
+
+```
+smart_search(query="<topic>", path="./src")    -- discover files + symbols across a directory
+smart_outline(file_path="<file>")              -- structural skeleton of one file
+smart_unfold(file_path="<file>", symbol_name="<name>")  -- full source of one symbol
+```
+
+Do NOT run Grep, Glob, Read, or find to discover files first. `smart_search` walks directories, parses all code files, and returns ranked symbols in one call. It replaces the Glob → Grep → Read discovery cycle.
+
+## 3-Layer Workflow
+
+### Step 1: Search -- Discover Files and Symbols
+
+```
+smart_search(query="shutdown", path="./src", max_results=15)
+```
+
+**Returns:** Ranked symbols with signatures, line numbers, match reasons, plus folded file views (~2-6k tokens)
+
+```
+-- Matching Symbols --
+  function performGracefulShutdown (services/infrastructure/GracefulShutdown.ts:56)
+  function httpShutdown (services/infrastructure/HealthMonitor.ts:92)
+  method WorkerService.shutdown (services/worker-service.ts:846)
+
+-- Folded File Views --
+  services/infrastructure/GracefulShutdown.ts (7 symbols)
+  services/worker-service.ts (12 symbols)
+```
+
+This is your discovery tool. It finds relevant files AND shows their structure. No Glob/find pre-scan needed.
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `query` (string, required) -- What to search for (function name, concept, class name)
+- `path` (string) -- Root directory to search (defaults to cwd)
+- `max_results` (number) -- Max matching symbols, default 20, max 50
+- `file_pattern` (string, optional) -- Filter to specific files/paths
+
+### Step 2: Outline -- Get File Structure
+
+```
+smart_outline(file_path="services/worker-service.ts")
+```
+
+**Returns:** Complete structural skeleton -- all functions, classes, methods, properties, imports (~1-2k tokens per file)
+
+**Skip this step** when Step 1's folded file views already provide enough structure. Most useful for files not covered by the search results.
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `file_path` (string, required) -- Path to the file
+
+### Step 3: Unfold -- See Implementation
+
+Review symbols from Steps 1-2. Pick the ones you need. Unfold only those:
+
+```
+smart_unfold(file_path="services/worker-service.ts", symbol_name="shutdown")
+```
+
+**Returns:** Full source code of the specified symbol including JSDoc, decorators, and complete implementation (~400-2,100 tokens depending on symbol size). AST node boundaries guarantee completeness regardless of symbol size — unlike Read + agent summarization, which may truncate long methods.
+
+**Parameters:**
+
+- `file_path` (string, required) -- Path to the file (as returned by search/outline)
+- `symbol_name` (string, required) -- Name of the function/class/method to expand
+
+## When to Use Standard Tools Instead
+
+Use these only when smart_* tools are the wrong fit:
+
+- **Grep:** Exact string/regex search ("find all TODO comments", "where is `ensureWorkerStarted` defined?")
+- **Read:** Small files under ~100 lines, non-code files (JSON, markdown, config)
+- **Glob:** File path patterns ("find all test files")
+- **Explore agent:** When you need synthesized understanding across 6+ files, architecture narratives, or answers to open-ended questions like "how does this entire system work end-to-end?" Smart-explore is a scalpel — it answers "where is this?" and "show me that." It doesn't synthesize cross-file data flows, design decisions, or edge cases across an entire feature.
+
+For code files over ~100 lines, prefer smart_outline + smart_unfold over Read.
+
+## Workflow Examples
+
+**Discover how a feature works (cross-cutting):**
+
+```
+1. smart_search(query="shutdown", path="./src")
+   -> 14 symbols across 7 files, full picture in one call
+2. smart_unfold(file_path="services/infrastructure/GracefulShutdown.ts", symbol_name="performGracefulShutdown")
+   -> See the core implementation
+```
+
+**Navigate a large file:**
+
+```
+1. smart_outline(file_path="services/worker-service.ts")
+   -> 1,466 tokens: 12 functions, WorkerService class with 24 members
+2. smart_unfold(file_path="services/worker-service.ts", symbol_name="startSessionProcessor")
+   -> 1,610 tokens: the specific method you need
+Total: ~3,076 tokens vs ~12,000 to Read the full file
+```
+
+**Write documentation about code (hybrid workflow):**
+
+```
+1. smart_search(query="feature name", path="./src")    -- discover all relevant files and symbols
+2. smart_outline on key files                           -- understand structure
+3. smart_unfold on important functions                  -- get implementation details
+4. Read on small config/markdown/plan files             -- get non-code context
+```
+
+Use smart_* tools for code exploration, Read for non-code files. Mix freely.
+
+**Exploration then precision:**
+
+```
+1. smart_search(query="session", path="./src", max_results=10)
+   -> 10 ranked symbols: SessionMetadata, SessionQueueProcessor, SessionSummary...
+2. Pick the relevant one, unfold it
+```
+
+## Token Economics
+
+| Approach | Tokens | Use Case |
+|----------|--------|----------|
+| smart_outline | ~1,000-2,000 | "What's in this file?" |
+| smart_unfold | ~400-2,100 | "Show me this function" |
+| smart_search | ~2,000-6,000 | "Find all X across the codebase" |
+| search + unfold | ~3,000-8,000 | End-to-end: find and read (the primary workflow) |
+| Read (full file) | ~12,000+ | When you truly need everything |
+| Explore agent | ~39,000-59,000 | Cross-file synthesis with narrative |
+
+**4-8x savings** on file understanding (outline + unfold vs Read). **11-18x savings** on codebase exploration vs Explore agent. The narrower the query, the wider the gap — a 27-line function costs 55x less to read via unfold than via an Explore agent, because the agent still reads the entire file.
