v1.16.7
🧠 Memory hardening — context you can see, trust, and keep
v1.16.7 is a reliability release for Termpolis's persistent shared memory. Five fixes so the brain stops losing context and stops surfacing stale or low-relevance hits — the difference between "memory that mostly works" and "memory you can rely on every session."
What's fixed
-
Observable recall. Claude's memory priming is invisible by design (a system-prompt file + a SessionStart hook), so a working recall used to look identical to no recall at all. Now every primed launch shows a banner —
🧠 Loaded N memories for "<project>"on success, or a clear⚠️ Memory recall unavailableif the brain couldn't be reached. You always know whether context loaded. -
No more live-session lag. A new fast indexer tier runs on a ~90-second cadence and ingests only the active session's freshest turns (freshness-filtered, capped), so your current conversation is searchable within seconds instead of waiting for the next 30-minute full pass.
-
Staleness guard. Code-anchored memories (
path:line) whose file no longer exists are now flagged⚠ STALE — file removed, verify before usein the recall digest, instead of being handed back to the agent as fact. -
PATH-proof memory hook. The SessionStart hook now resolves an absolute Node path (scanning
PATHplus standard install locations), so memory still loads under thin-PATH login shells — NVM setups, restricted shells, and similar — where a barenodewouldn't resolve. -
Adaptive relevance floor. The recall floor can no longer resurrect below-threshold noise: it only fills up to the number of hits that actually clear the relevance bar. Weak, off-topic results stay out of the digest entirely — the agent gets the relevant slice, never padding.
Quality
All five fixes ship with full test coverage — 4,201 tests passing, coverage gate green (lines 94% / branches 85.7% / functions 91% / statements 92%), lint + build + typecheck clean. Tests and Release CI both green across Windows, macOS, and Linux.
