Full changelog

Agents Remember 2.1.0

A backward-compatible release on top of the 2.0.0 lifecycle reshape, focused on a smoother, more predictable first run, consistent naming, and a few reliability fixes.

Highlights

  • Workspace-first install defaults. c-13-install-and-onboard now resolves every install location (coordination root, skills, MCP settings, harness settings, hooks) under the workspace the harness was opened in — never your home directory — with ar-coordination/ the one constant and each path shown as an accept-or-override prompt before anything is written. A short, blunt MANDATORY-FIRST-ACTION hook directive replaces the old multi-step one.
  • Consistent references. Skill directories are lowercase (c-13-…), and docs use a single skill-name / MCP-tool reference convention throughout.
  • Reliability fixes. grepai reports degraded instead of failing when there is no searchable workspace; the quality gate now measures the current checkout, fixing false CRAP failures when running from a git worktree.

Documentation

  • Canonical Restart Points table; internal-vs-external memory default clarified (internal ar-memory/ first, external fallback); a "What It Looks Like In Practice" by-path transcript; removal of stale skills_install(layout=…) references; a new release checklist; and a Live Demo section linking the project's own published memory repo.
