Current State

Last updated: 2026-03-13T07:02:00+10:00

Objective

Validate the memory-continuity lifecycle plugin path safely after upgrade.

Current Step

Startup-injection testing is confirmed on multiple resident subagents after the upgrade; Discord main/channel/thread paths have now been tested and are not currently supported for reliable continuity recovery; compaction-path testing is now being prepared on travel_assistant as the disposable session.

Key Decisions

• Keep SKILL.md + standard lifecycle plugin as the primary architecture.
• Treat ContextEngine as a future option, not the v1 default.
• Do not force compaction on the main live session just to test Experiment C.
• Use disposable resident subagent sessions for future compaction-path testing.
• travel_assistant is now a valid sample again after removing the old wrong workspace and fixing its AGENTS.md startup rule to read memory/CURRENT_STATE.md.
• Alpha support boundary is now explicit: resident subagent startup continuity is supported; Discord main/channel/thread continuity is not yet supported in v0.3.0-probe.

Next Action

Use travel_assistant as the sacrificial session, reload the updated probe logging, then force/accelerate a real compaction event and compare hook behavior against the failure chain seen on main.

Blockers

Experiment C still lacks a real compaction event, so compaction-hook behavior remains unproven.

Unsurfaced Results

• Experiment A is now confirmed on multiple resident subagents.
• tech_geek recovered plugin-injected startup continuity state without using read.
• travel_assistant also recovered the correct upgraded smoke-test state after fixing its old workspace pollution and startup rule.
• Fresh Discord main/channel/thread tests failed to preserve short facts or concrete working-state recovery across new sessions; treat Discord main continuity as unsupported for this alpha.
