What's new

Cuts tokens wasted on every full-agent turn.

Changed

  • Root CLAUDE.md renamed to DEVELOPER.md. The Anthropic SDK auto-loads every CLAUDE.md from the agent's CWD up to the git root. The runtime agent runs from groups/main/, so it was inheriting ~1,330 tokens of developer documentation into every system prompt — context that has no business in a Telegram chat turn. The file is unchanged; only its name moved. Per-group CLAUDE.md files keep their name and continue to load as runtime instructions.
  • Orchestrator-side appendMemoryLog deleted. After every Telegram turn the orchestrator was writing - [auto] Handled: <raw Telegram XML preview> to memory/log.md. The agent re-read the log on every session start, paying tokens to re-ingest message previews from days past. Logging is now the agent's responsibility — groups/{name}/CLAUDE.md already instructs it to prepend meaningful events. Trust the agent + the human in the loop.

Notes

  • Gmail MCP tool definitions (~1,500–3,000 tokens per full-agent turn) is the next-biggest waste, but no quick fix without an architectural change (move Gmail to a dedicated email group). The SDK doesn't expose cache_control on the system prompt option, so we can't cache MCP tool defs the way we cached the fast-path system prompt in v0.8.1.

To update: run `/update-ghostclaw` in your main chat.
