+## [0.4.0] - 2026-06-24
+
+### Added
+
+- **Memory-discipline "Conventions and workflow" section in `CLAUDE.md`** — a
+  per-task *recall-before / remember-after* convention (scope localized to this
+  repo's nick) so the vendored `remember` / `recall` skills are actually used,
+  not just present: `/recall` before non-trivial work to build on prior
+  decisions instead of re-deriving them, and `/remember` when a non-obvious
+  decision, constraint, fix-and-why, or hard-won gotcha surfaces. The section
+  documents this repo's memory as **in-repo and public** — records resolve to
+  `<repo-root>/.eidetic/memory` (committed, team- and mesh-shared). Inserted
+  idempotently (skipped if already present), slotted under an existing
+  "Conventions and workflow" heading when one exists, else appended.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Refreshed the `remember` + `recall` wrappers from eidetic-cli 0.10.0**
+  (cite-don't-import) — picks up eidetic's **project-local store default**: the
+  files backend now resolves per record by visibility — PUBLIC records inside a
+  git repo go to `<repo-root>/.eidetic/memory` (committed, team-shared), PRIVATE
+  records (or any record outside a repo) go to `$HOME/.eidetic/memory` (never
+  committed), an explicit `EIDETIC_DATA_DIR` still wins, and recall reads both
+  stores and merges. Also carries the 0.9.3 hardening (interactive-stdin guard,
+  `help` as a search term, SIGPIPE-safe suffix parsing). **Recipe policy
+  override (the wrappers here are NOT byte-verbatim):** the injected default
+  visibility is flipped from eidetic's `private` to **`public`**, so a plain
+  `/remember` lands the note in `./.eidetic/memory` in this repo, kept as part
+  of the repo — pass `--visibility private` to route a record to `$HOME`
+  instead. `remember` drives `eidetic remember` (idempotent upsert of one JSON
+  record or an NDJSON batch on stdin); `recall` drives `eidetic recall` with
+  four search modes (exact / approximate / keyword / hybrid). Each `SKILL.md` is
+  localized only in the illustrative `--scope <nick>` examples (Provenance keeps
+  "First-party to eidetic-cli"). Runtime dep: the `eidetic` CLI on PATH (else a
+  local eidetic-cli checkout with `uv`) — **`eidetic >= 0.10.0`** for the
+  in-repo routing; on an older CLI the public records still work but are stored
+  in `$HOME/.eidetic/memory` instead of in-repo. Propagated by rollout-cli's
+  `eidetic-memory` recipe.

+## Conventions and workflow
+
+**Memory discipline — recall before, remember after.** This repo keeps its
+eidetic memory **in-repo and public**: records resolve to
+`<repo-root>/.eidetic/memory` — committed, and shared with the team and mesh
+peers (the `claude` and `colleague` backends both read the same
+`tensor-cli` scope), so memory travels with the repo, not a private
+home-dir store. Make it a per-task habit:
+
+- **`/recall` before you start.** Search the store for the area you're about
+  to touch — prior decisions, gotchas, "have we done this before?" — so you
+  build on what's already known instead of re-deriving it. Do this before
+  non-trivial tasks, not just when asked.
+- **`/remember` when something worth keeping surfaces.** A non-obvious
+  decision and its rationale, a constraint, a fix and *why* it was needed, a
+  gotcha that cost time, a fact the next session would otherwise re-learn.
+  Capture it as it happens, not at the end when it's faded.
+
+A plain `/remember` lands the note in `./.eidetic/memory` in this repo — no
+flag needed (the wrappers here default to `--visibility public`; in-repo
+routing needs `eidetic >= 0.10.0`, older CLIs keep records in `$HOME`). Keep
+something out of the committed store only by passing `--visibility private`
+(routes to `$HOME/.eidetic/memory`, never committed); `/recall` reads both
+stores and merges. Don't store what the repo already records (code structure,
+git history, what's already in this file or `CHANGELOG.md`) — store what you'd
+have to re-derive. These are the `recall`/`remember` skills (`.claude/skills/`),
+backed by the `eidetic` store.
