Now I have the full picture. The morning session (07:00-07:11Z) produced several durable signals: script fixes verified, safe artifact edit paths confirmed, reload protocol established, and the "safe-agent-patch-workflow" decision recorded. All semantic candidates are already lifecycle-managed. Memory candidates remain at 21 stale entries (bash permission blocks lifecycle-marking). Let me update curated-memory.md with the new operational facts and refresh metadata.


File is at 117 lines — under the 120-line target. Now append the curator journal entry.


UPDATED — Metadata refreshed (07:11Z, 24080 lines); added 4 entries covering morning session: script fixes verified, safe artifact edit paths confirmed, reload protocol established, and safe-agent-patch-workflow decision thread. File at 117 lines, under 120-line target. Curator journal appended.

Live runtime capability context: Runtime details are dynamic; use Matrix-lite status/capability/permission/context tools when current paths, timers, repo access, or reload policy matter. Do not rely on boot-time guesses. Recent room-local conversation: User: Hmm, we still need to add a way for you to append to your session and turn packets, this is deferred a bit as it sounds complex. For now you need to edit source artifacts Please check if any of the following make sense to use for now What agents can safely edit Agents should not directly edit turn-packet.md or session- packet.md; they’re generated and will be overwritten by heartbeat. Safe paths are the source artifacts: - decisions via persistent-chat-memory note-decision / decision-mark - failures via note-failure / failure-mark - reload handoff via note-reload-handoff - recent topics via operational synthesis worker - actions/notices via operational synthesis worker - packet structure by editing scripts/persistent-chat-memory in the repo, with tests/review For direct “agent adds a note to session packet” behavior, we still need the deferred overlay/sandbox design — not direct packet editing. Assistant: That makes perfect sense — the packets are generated from source artifacts, so editing the sources is the correct approach. The deferred overlay design would handle freeform "agent notes" that don't fit structured categories. For now, the safe paths cover what I actually need: - **`note-decision` / `decision-mark`** — I can record operational conclusions that survive reloads - **`note-failure` / `failure-mark`** — I can log tool failures and guardrails - **`note-reload-handoff`** — I can prepare context before a controlled reload - **Synthesis worker** — handles recent topics, actions, notices automatically The only gap is freeform "session notes" — things like "we discussed X, pending Y" that don't fit decisions/failures. But `recent-topics.md` (edited by synthesis) and `curator-journal.md` (edited by heartbeat) already cover that implicitly. So yes, this works for now. The helper commands are the right path — they're structured, auditable, and feed directly into the packet generation. Once the overlay design lands, I'll have a direct "append to session packet" escape hatch for edge cases. User: So now you know what to do when you start getting reload notices? Assistant: Yes. When I get the reload notice (at ~95% context), I should: 1. **Use `note-reload-handoff`** to capture any volatile context that won't survive — things I know from the current conversation that aren't yet in the source artifacts 2. **Decide whether to run curation** — if there's new material worth preserving, trigger it; if it's just test chatter or the curator just ran, skip it 3. **Update source artifacts** via the helpers (`note-decision`, `note-failure`, etc.) for anything that emerged during the session The key is that the reload handoff + updated source artifacts become the new session's starting point, so nothing important gets lost in the transition. User: Amazing thank you Assistant: You're welcome! It's been a productive session — the system is in much better shape now.

<matrix_lite_final>Looks like the previous turn timed out or hit a context limit — probably the session packet was too large to process in one go (195 lines of markdown + 256 lines of JSON tail).

Decision noted: Persistent chat stale session and compaction policy — active: Avoid reloading or replacing the main persistent-chat session unless context pressure, stale/incomplete ACPX session state, model-mediated reload scripts, or an emergency recovery path requires it. If OpenCode fallback compaction ever occurs, its result must be captured into durable continuity (session packet/source artifact) before or during the next reload.

Put only user-visible answer text inside <matrix_lite_final>...</matrix_lite_final>. - Use the live capability context above as the source of truth for current debug/capability tools; call capability/permission/context MCP tools when uncertain instead of relying on stale boot knowledge. - If permission is needed or a bridge denies a tool, emit the structured Matrix-lite approval tag from your stable prompt; do not only describe approval in prose. - If recent incomplete/failed turns mention an unhandled user intent, address it now before moving on. - Use attachment/reply metadata when present; otherwise ignore empty metadata sections. - Do not mention internal Matrix-lite metadata unless the user asks.
