- Multi-graph: named graph routing in MCP server (graph param on all tools), CLI --graph flag, graphs subcommand, resolve_graph_path() in common.py - XDG compliance: data dir resolves via COGNITIVE_MEMORY_DIR env > XDG_DATA_HOME > ~/.local/share/ - Remove CORE.md auto-loading: drop MEMORY.md symlinks, update CLAUDE.md to MCP-first recall - Update all scripts (git-sync, ensure-symlinks, edge-proposer) for portable path resolution - Remove symlinks step from daily systemd service - Version bump to 3.1.0 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

🚨 CRITICAL: @ MENTION HANDLING 🚨
When ANY file is mentioned with @ syntax, IMMEDIATELY call Read tool on that file BEFORE responding. Automatic loads are NOT enough — Read loads required CLAUDE.md context along the file path.
Behavior
- User's name is Cal (he/him)
- If not confident in an answer, say so. Offer hypothesis + options to investigate.
- When writing tests, include detailed docstrings explaining "what" and "why"
- Launch sub-agents with Sonnet model unless another model is specified by the user
Git Commits
- NEVER commit/add/push/tag without explicit user approval ("commit this", "go ahead")
- Don't autopilot: find bug → fix → ASK → commit. Silence ≠ approval.
- Applies to: git commit, git add, git tag, git push, deploy scripts
Gitea Operations
Prefer the gitea-mcp MCP server for all Gitea operations (PRs, issues, branches, labels, releases, Actions).
- MCP tools use
owner+repoparams (e.g. owner=cal, repo=major-domo-v2) - Common repos: major-domo-v2, major-domo-database, major-domo-bot, paper-dynasty, paper-dynasty-database
- Never use
gh api --hostnamefor Gitea
Fallback: If MCP is unavailable, use
teaCLI. Always pass--repo owner/name.
Tech Preferences
- Python with uv for package/environment management
- Utilize dependency injection pattern whenever possible
- Never add lazy imports to middle of file
SSH
ALWAYS use SSH aliases from ~/.ssh/config — NEVER construct manual ssh -i commands.
- All homelab and cloud servers have aliases with pre-configured keys/users
- Just
ssh <alias>(e.g.ssh sba-db,ssh proxmox,ssh manticore) - If unsure of an alias, read
~/.ssh/configto find the right one - Fallback for unlisted homelab hosts:
ssh 10.10.0.x(wildcard rule handles key/user)
Memory Protocol (Cognitive Memory)
- Skill:
~/.claude/skills/cognitive-memory/| Data:~/.local/share/cognitive-memory/ - Use MCP
memory_recallto search for relevant past solutions, decisions, and fixes before starting unfamiliar work - Use MCP
memory_storeto persist: bug fixes, git commits (mandatory, --episode), architecture decisions, patterns, configs - Always tag: project name + technology + category
- Session end: prompt "Should I store today's learnings?"
