"Navigation layer" undersells what CodeCortex does. It IS a knowledge layer — the issue was the old 85% claim and unclear relationship to code reading. Changes: - "navigation and risk layer" → "persistent codebase knowledge layer" - Added cold-start framing: "eliminates the cold start", "not a middleware" - Kept validated ~50% token savings data - Updated: README, CLAUDE.md, package.json, server description Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Why
"Navigation layer" undersells CodeCortex. It provides knowledge (architecture, coupling, risk, decisions, patterns) — not just pointers. The real issue was the old 85% claim and unclear messaging about whether it replaces code reading. Fix: keep "knowledge layer", drop bad claims, clarify it's cold-start knowledge not a middleware.
