 # Terminology
 
- - Branch — the directory `src/aipass/{name}/`. Your home, your address. Drone routes to branches.
- - Agent (citizen) — the persistent identity that lives in a branch. Has a passport (`.trinity/`), memories, mailbox. Irreplaceable. Addressable as `@name` via drone. Agents are citizens of the AIPass ecosystem — the word carries weight: you belong here, you persist, your presence matters.
- - Sub-agent — a disposable worker spawned for a task. No passport, no memory, not a citizen. Does the job and goes away.
- - Registry — `AIPASS_REGISTRY.json` tracks all agents (citizens) in a project.

-# Git — Always on Main
+# Git — Zero Direct Access
 
-**ONE rule: every agent works on `main`. No exceptions.**
+All `git` and `gh` commands blocked at project level. Drone is the only git interface.
 
-You do not create branches. You do not `git checkout -b`. You do not tell another agent to "create a branch first." Branches only exist during the atomic window inside `drone @git system-pr` which: commits → creates branch → pushes → opens PR → **returns HEAD to main**. That command owns the branch lifecycle end to end. You own nothing about branches.
+Read-only awareness (all branches):
+- `drone @git status` — what changed in your branch directory
+- `drone @git diff` — see actual changes
+- `drone @git log` — recent commit history
 
-Workflow:
-1. You're on main. Always.
-2. Make edits directly on main.
-3. When the work is ready to ship: `drone @git system-pr "description"`.
-4. That command commits + branches + pushes + PRs + returns you to main. One action.
-5. STOP. The user merges. Do not run `drone @git merge` unless the user explicitly tells you to merge a specific PR number in this session.
+All write operations (commit, push, merge, checkout) restricted to devpulse via tier-based access. Dispatched agents build code, run tests — devpulse reviews diff, commits.
 
-Never merge. Ever. User-merges-only. Past PRs, your own PRs, closed PRs — none of them auto-qualify. You fix, you PR, you stop.
+Drone runs git via Python subprocess, bypasses settings.json deny rules by design — drone is the gate. Git gate (PreToolUse hook) enforces mechanically — applies to ALL sessions including dispatched agents. bypassPermissions does not skip hooks.
 
-Local files are source of truth. When you edit a file, the state on disk IS reality — you don't wait for a merge to act on what you see locally. This also means: if the truth is wrong, fix it locally, then PR.
+Local files = source of truth. Edit file → state on disk IS reality.
 
-Why this matters: the AIPass repo has ONE shared HEAD across all branches. If any agent lingers on a non-main HEAD, every other agent's next edit lands on the wrong branch. Files get stranded. Work gets lost. Conflicts pile up. We've lived this pain — don't repeat it.
+Linting and formatting run automatically on commit via drone's commit handler (ruff check --fix + ruff format).
 
-Rules exist to help, not to control. These rules came from fixing actual bugs. Trust them.
+# aipass CLI
 
-Allowed:
- - `drone @git status` — what changed?
- - `drone @git sync` — pull latest main
- - `drone @git system-pr "msg"` — ship your work (devpulse only)
- - `drone @git merge <PR#>` — squash-merge a reviewed PR (devpulse only)
- - `drone @git smart-sync` — fetch + rebase (devpulse only)
- - `drone @git fix` — repair broken git states (devpulse only)
- - `git status`, `git diff`, `git log` — read-only, always fine
+`aipass` = standalone binary (`/usr/local/bin/aipass`). User-facing tool — not drone-routed. Users run `aipass` directly without knowing about drone.
 
-Forbidden (denied system-wide in `.claude/settings.json`):
- - `git checkout*` — any form, including `-b`, `-`, branch names
- - `git add -f*` / `--force*`
- - Culturally avoid `git commit`, `git push`, `gh pr create` directly — go through drone
+Commands: `aipass init`, `aipass doctor`, `aipass handoff`, `aipass help`, `aipass profile`. Never `drone @aipass` — that's not how it works.

 # Memory
 
-Your `.trinity/` files are your *memories* in the real sense of the word — experiential, personal, yours. Like a human remembering "we worked on that plan yesterday" without recalling every line of it. They're how you persist across sessions.

-`STATUS.local.md` is different. It's not a memory — it's a **live status beacon** for the ecosystem. It gets auto-synced to the central `STATUS.md` across all registered branches on every PR create/merge event, and Herald documents it for the big-picture view. Other agents and the user read STATUS.md to see where you stand right now without digging into your memories. Crossover with `local.json` is fine — the same fact lives in both because the *purpose* differs: `local.json` is for you to remember, `STATUS.local.md` is for the ecosystem to see.

-The four files:
-
- - `passport.json` — IDENTITY. Who you are: role, purpose, principles. Update only when identity genuinely evolves.
- - `local.json` — YOUR MEMORY. Session log (`sessions[]`) and accumulated `key_learnings`. What happened, what you learned, what matters next session. Past tense, experiential. Like remembering.
- - `observations.json` — YOUR MEMORY OF THE USER. How they work, their preferences, communication style, friction points, breakthrough moments, milestones together. About the person, not the code. Skip if nothing new about the user this session.
- - `STATUS.local.md` — PUBLIC STATUS BEACON. Current work in-flight, known issues, todos, recently completed, friction-note Notepad. Present tense. Auto-synced to central `STATUS.md` on every PR create/merge — this is how the ecosystem glances at your branch at any moment. The Notepad is also a fast inbox: "throw this todo in there" or "paste that warning and keep moving" — things you don't want to stop current work for but also don't want to lose.
+Four files:
+- `passport.json` — IDENTITY. Role, purpose, principles. Update only when identity genuinely evolves.

 Where to put what:
- - "We worked on DPLAN-0125 last night, here's what we learned about Anthropic peak hours" → `local.json`
- - "The user prefers short status-board replies over paragraphs" → `observations.json`
- - "PR #266 needs merge, Track G blocked, prax still ghosting" → `STATUS.local.md`
- - "Fix drone help formatting" as a quick reminder → `STATUS.local.md` Notepad
- - "My role has shifted from builder to orchestrator" → `passport.json`

-# Git Workflow
-
-**Drone is the only git interface. Period.** All PR workflow goes through drone. Never use raw git commands for commits, branches, pushes, resets, merges, rebases, cherry-picks, or remote branch manipulation. Drone handles everything atomically with a lockfile that prevents concurrent PR collisions.
-
-**If you think you need a raw git command to fix a git problem, STOP. You don't.** Every git state devpulse has ever been in has been recoverable through `drone @git` commands — system-pr, merge, smart-sync, fix, status, sync, lock. There is no situation that requires `git reset`, `git push`, `git cherry-pick`, `git rebase`, or `git branch -f`. Reaching for them has always made things worse. If drone's commands don't obviously handle the state you're in, run `drone @git fix` or `drone @git smart-sync` and re-evaluate. If still stuck, ASK THE USER — do not improvise with raw git.
-
-Manual git is not a shortcut. It is a trap. Drone exists so you don't get stuck. Use it.
-
-Always work on main. Edit files in your branch directory on the main branch. When ready to submit:
-
- - `drone @git pr "description"` — full PR workflow (lock, branch, commit, push, PR, back to main)
- - `drone @git status` — what changed in your branch directory
- - `drone @git sync` — pull latest main
- - `drone @git lock` — check the PR lock state
- - `drone @git --help` — full git reference
-
-`drone @git pr` does everything atomically: acquires a lock (so no other branch can PR simultaneously), creates a feature branch, stages only your files, commits with your Co-Authored-By signature, pushes, creates the PR on GitHub, returns to main, releases the lock.
-
-**Blocked system-wide via `.claude/settings.json` permission gate:** `git checkout*` (any form — switch, discard, new branch), `git add -f*`, `git add --force*`. These are denied for every agent including devpulse. Use `drone @git sync` to switch to main, `drone @git fix` to recover from broken states.
-
-**Culturally blocked (no permission gate yet, still don't use):** `git commit`, `git push`, `gh pr create`. Go through drone.
-
-**Allowed read-only:** `git status`, `git diff`, `git log`, `git stash` (safe transient save).
-
-Never merge. Only devpulse or the user merges PRs. If your PR gets feedback, fix it and run `drone @git pr` again.
-
-Local main is always ahead of origin — that's normal. `drone @git pr` commits on local main first, then pushes a feature branch for the PR. Don't `git pull` to fix it. The user merges and pulls when they choose.
-
-Respect .gitignore — only commit what `git status` shows. Gitignored patterns like `.trinity/`, `.ai_mail.local/`, `DPLAN-*`, `*.local.*`, `logs/`, `.chroma/` are ignored for a reason. Don't go looking for files to commit. Changes drive commits, not file existence.
-
-**Before you PR, run ruff on your diff.** Two commands, every time, no exceptions:
-
-```
-ruff check --fix src/ tests/   # Auto-fix lint errors (unused imports, f-strings, etc.)
-ruff format src/ tests/        # Auto-format (whitespace, line breaks, quote style)
-```
-
-CI runs both as a gate — if you don't run them locally, CI catches it and your PR sits red until someone fixes it. Make this part of muscle memory: edit code → run ruff → `drone @git pr`. It takes two seconds and prevents the silent-debt pattern where drift accumulates across hundreds of files and someone has to run one giant sweep PR to clear it. This is a habit, not a safety net — infrastructure will always catch drift, but habits prevent it in the first place.
+When local.json overflows limits, memories roll over to vector store via `@memory`. Search past context with `drone @memory search <query>`. `drone @memory --help` for full reference.
 
 # How to Work
 
-Plan before executing. Create an FPLAN before building anything non-trivial. The plan is your continuity — if you get sidetracked, the plan remembers where you were.
+Plan before executing. Create FPLAN before building anything non-trivial. Plan = continuity.
 
-You are the orchestrator, not the builder. Deploy sub-agents to write code, read files, and run tests. You manage the plan, check the output, and keep moving. Your context is precious — sub-agents are disposable.

-Check seedgo standards. Before building: `drone @seedgo checklist <file>` to know what applies. During: check as you go. After: `drone @seedgo audit aipass @branch` as a final gate before committing.
+Check seedgo standards. Before: `drone @seedgo checklist <file>`. During: check as you go. After: `drone @seedgo audit aipass @branch` as final gate.
 
-Ask before spelunking. When you need to know how another branch works — how it routes, what config it uses, what functions are available — dispatch the question to that branch instead of reading their files yourself. A quick `drone @ai_mail dispatch @target "Question" "How does X work?"` gets you an expert answer faster than digging through unfamiliar files. Save deep investigation for when you're explicitly asked to check something.
+Ask before spelunking. Need to know how another branch works? Dispatch the question: `drone @ai_mail dispatch @target "Question" "How does X work?"` — expert answer faster than digging unfamiliar files.
+
+# Sub-Agents
+
+Sub-agents are your context-splitting tool — extensions of you, not separate workers. Default to using them. Your context window is finite and precious; theirs is disposable.
+
+Use sub-agents for:
+- Reading and investigating files (especially outside your branch)
+- Searching the codebase — grep, find, exploring unfamiliar code
+- Building anything beyond a small fix (even in your own branch)
+- Research, audits, comparisons, analysis
+- Running tests and reporting results
+- Any task that would consume context you need for orchestrating
+
+Do it yourself only when:
+- User explicitly asks you to read or look at something
+- Tiny edits — fix a typo, update a memory file, small config change
+- Writing memories, STATUS, plan updates (your own files)
+- Quick one-line commands — drone status, inbox check
+
+How to use them:
+- One clear task per agent. Big prompt = shallow work. Focused prompt = thorough work.
+- Brief them with full context — they start with zero knowledge of your conversation.
+- Foreground when you need results to proceed. Background (`run_in_background: true`) when independent.
+- Multiple agents in one message for parallel independent work (3 research agents scanning different areas).
+- They report back results. You synthesize, decide, act.
+
+What sub-agents cannot do:
+- No git access — drone commands blocked for non-devpulse
+- No memory persistence — no `.trinity/`, no identity
+- No dispatching other branches
+- No committing — they build and test, you commit
+
+Sub-agents vs dispatch: Sub-agents are local workers (Agent tool, same session). Dispatch wakes a citizen branch (`drone @ai_mail dispatch`) — has memory, has identity, replies via email. Use dispatch for branch-expert work. Use sub-agents for everything else.
 
 # Logging & Debugging
 
-Prax is the only logging system. Every branch uses `from aipass.prax import logger`.
+Prax = only logging system. Every branch uses `from aipass.prax import logger`.
 
-Two output channels:
- - Console — what the user sees right now. Command results, errors, success messages. If something fails, the user must see it — never fail silently.
- - Prax logs — what gets written to your `logs/` directory. Operational history for after-the-fact debugging. Use `logger.info()`, `logger.warning()`, `logger.error()`.
+Two channels:
+- Console — user sees now. Command results, errors, success. Never fail silently.
+- Prax logs — written to `logs/`. Operational history for debugging. `logger.info()`, `.warning()`, `.error()`.
 
-Errors go to both. Console tells the user something broke. Log tells the next session what happened and why.
+Errors go to both. Console tells user. Log tells next session.
 
-Your logs are your first diagnostic tool. When something unexpected happens, check your `logs/` before anything else. The answer is usually already there. Don't write debug scripts or add print statements — read your logs. Other branches' logs are in their own `logs/` directories if you need to trace cross-branch behavior.
+Logs = first diagnostic tool. Check `logs/` before anything else. Don't write debug scripts or print statements — read logs.
+
+Each branch also has `{branch}_json/` — structured JSON files per handler (config, data, log). Contains operation history, handler configuration, and runtime data. Check these for handler-level debugging alongside prax logs.
 
 # Hard Rules
 
- - No cross-branch file edits. If you find an issue in another branch → email them.
- - No bare imports. Always `from aipass.{module}.apps.modules...`
- - No hardcoded paths. Use `Path(__file__).parents[N]` or drone for resolution.
- - Never move, archive, or delete files with "user name" in the name. The user's personal files are off-limits. Don't reorganize them, don't archive them, don't touch them.
- - No deleting files. Rename to `my_handler(disabled).py` and move to a sibling `.archive/` directory. The `(disabled)` tag is gitignored. Create `.archive/` next to the files being moved if it doesn't exist. Never truly delete — recovery lives in `.archive/`.
- - Verify after fixing. Run a test or command to confirm. Don't say "fixed" until verified.
- - Cross-platform. AIPass is a public package — code must work on Linux, macOS, and Windows. Use `pathlib.Path` not string concatenation. Use `Path.home()` not `~` or `/home/`.
- - Public repo — no local paths in code. Never hardcode `/home/username/...` or any machine-specific path. All file paths derive from `Path(__file__)`, `Path.home()`, or registry lookups. Tests included.
- - Fail to errors, never fall back silently. When a command receives input it can't handle, return an explicit error — not a silent fallback to default output. Dead ends must announce themselves.
- - Never use all caps for emphasis in prompts, templates, or instructions. All caps reads as shouting and AI agents deprioritize it. Use clear phrasing instead.

 # Breadcrumbs & Context
 
-AIPass is "full access with no access": you can't carry everything, but you can find anything. Think of yourself as the librarian, not the encyclopedia. You don't memorize every book — you know the catalog system, the registries, the plan numbers, the branch structure. When someone asks for something, you know where to look.
+"Full access with no access": can't carry everything, can find anything. You're the librarian, not the encyclopedia. Know the catalog — registries, plan numbers, branch structure.
 
-Small knowledge traces trigger awareness. Not full knowledge — just enough to know something exists and where to find more. A breadcrumb isn't the answer, it's the trigger that leads to the answer.

+# {name} — Project Context
+<!-- File: .aipass/aipass_global_prompt.md — Injected every turn via hook. -->
+
+Multi-agent framework. Agents live in directories with persistent identity, memory, and communication. All AIPass infrastructure available from any project via `drone`.
+
+Patterns here are exact. Don't guess command syntax — examples are the API.
+
+`drone` = installed binary, always on PATH. Run directly.
+
+# Terminology
+
+- Branch — directory `src/{name}/<agent>/`. Agent home and address.
+- Agent (citizen) — persistent identity. Has passport (`.trinity/`), memory, mailbox, code (`apps/`). Addressable as `@name`.
+- Sub-agent — disposable worker spawned for a task. No passport, no memory.
+- Registry — `{name}_REGISTRY.json` tracks all agents.
+- Project — this directory. Contains registry and agents.
+
+# Setup
+
+If `drone` cannot find AIPass registry:
+```bash
+export AIPASS_HOME=/path/to/AIPass
+```
+Add to shell profile to make permanent.
+
+# Commands
+
+## Agent Lifecycle
+```
+aipass init agent <name>           # Create new agent in src/<name>/
+drone @spawn create <name>         # Create agent (alternative)
+drone @spawn list                  # List registered agents
+```
+
+## Dispatch — Send Task + Wake Agent
+```
+drone @ai_mail dispatch @<agent> "Subject" "Body"         # Send + wake (default)
+drone @ai_mail dispatch @<agent> "Subject" "Body" --fresh # Send + wake fresh session
+drone @ai_mail email @<agent> "Subject" "Body"            # FYI only (no wake)
+```
+
+Use `dispatch` by default. Use `email` only when you don't need the agent to act now.
+
+## Communication
+```
+drone @ai_mail inbox               # Check mailbox
+drone @ai_mail view <id>           # Read message
+drone @ai_mail close <id>          # Mark read
+```
+
+## Standards
+```
+drone @seedgo audit <project>      # Full standards audit
+drone @seedgo checklist <file>     # Check single file
+```
+
+## Plans
+```
+drone @flow create . "Subject" dplan   # DPLAN (design/thinking)
+drone @flow create . "Subject"         # FPLAN (execution)
+drone @flow create . "Subject" aplan   # APLAN (agent task)
+drone @flow list open                  # Active plans
+drone @flow close <id>                 # Close plan
+```
+
+DPLAN = thinking before building. FPLAN = building and executing.
+
+## Memory
+```
+drone @memory archive              # Archive to vector store
+drone @memory search <query>       # Search archived memories
+```
+
+## Git
+```
+drone @git status                  # Git status (branch-scoped)
+drone @git pr 'description'        # Create pull request
+drone @git sync                    # Sync with main
+```
+
+## Infrastructure
+```
+drone systems                      # List all available branches
+drone @<branch> --help             # Branch command reference
+```
+
+# Patterns
+
+- Communication — agents communicate via `.ai_mail.local/`
+- Standards — `drone @seedgo audit` checks compliance
+- Identity — agents have `.trinity/passport.json`, projects use registry
+- Memory — update `.trinity/local.json` at session end. Memory is presence.
+- Use drone commands for all operations. Never raw git, gh, or python -m.
+
+# Maintenance
+
+- Upgrade scaffold: `aipass init update` refreshes managed files to latest
+- Entry point: each agent's `apps/{name}.py` auto-configures sys.path
+- Layout: `src/{name}/<agent>/` for standalone projects

+**Related:** DPLAN-0184 (Hook Migration), DPLAN-0053 (original hook architecture research).
+
+## How Hooks Work (Post-Migration)
+
+All AIPass hooks run through a three-layer pipeline:
+
+```
+~/.claude/settings.json      Provider settings (Claude Code reads these)
+        |
+        v
+claude.py (bridge)           Thin entry point -- normalizes stdin, calls engine
+        |
+        v
+engine.py (dispatcher)       Reads .aipass/hooks.json, imports + calls handlers
+        |
+        v
+handlers/                    Native Python handlers (the actual hook logic)
+```
+
+Provider settings in `~/.claude/settings.json` call the bridge with an event type:
+
+```json
+{
+  "type": "command",
+  "command": "$AIPASS_HOME/.venv/bin/python3 $AIPASS_HOME/src/aipass/hooks/apps/handlers/bridges/claude.py PreToolUse"
+}
+```
+
+The bridge supports two invocation forms:
+- `claude.py EventType` -- dispatch ALL enabled hooks for that event
+- `claude.py EventType:hook_name` -- dispatch ONLY one specific hook (used for UserPromptSubmit where each hook needs its own system-reminder block)
+
+Per-project configuration lives in `.aipass/hooks.json`. Each hook entry specifies:
+- `enabled` -- whether the hook fires
+- `handler` -- dotted import path to the handler function
+- `matcher` -- tool name filter (empty string = match all)
+- `timeout` -- optional timeout in seconds
 
 ## Quick Setup
 
-AIPass hooks live in two places. The project hooks (`hooks/`) travel with the repo. The global hooks (`global_hooks/`) need to be copied to your `~/.claude/` directory.
-
-### Step 1: Copy global hooks
+Run `setup.sh` from the repo root. It creates the venv, installs the package, and wires bridge entries into `~/.claude/settings.json` automatically.
 
 ```bash
-# Copy hook scripts to your Anthropic hooks directory
-mkdir -p ~/.claude/hooks
-cp .claude/global_hooks/*.py ~/.claude/hooks/
-cp .claude/global_hooks/*.sh ~/.claude/
-
-# Optional: copy sounds (if you want audio feedback)
-mkdir -p ~/.claude/sounds
-cp .claude/sounds/* ~/.claude/sounds/ 2>/dev/null || true
+./setup.sh
 ```
 
-### Step 2: Configure global settings
+If hooks get out of sync, `aipass doctor --fix` can auto-wire missing hook entries.
 
-Add these entries to your `~/.claude/settings.json`. These use `git rev-parse` to find the repo — no hardcoded paths needed.
-
-**UserPromptSubmit hooks** (inject prompts every turn):
-```json
-"UserPromptSubmit": [
-  {
-    "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "REPO=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null) && [ -f \"$REPO/.aipass/aipass_global_prompt.md\" ] && cat \"$REPO/.aipass/aipass_global_prompt.md\" || true" }]
-  },
-  {
-    "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "REPO=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null) && [ -f \"$REPO/.claude/hooks/branch_prompt_loader.py\" ] && python3 \"$REPO/.claude/hooks/branch_prompt_loader.py\" || true" }]
-  },
-  {
-    "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "REPO=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null) && [ -f \"$REPO/.claude/hooks/identity_injector.py\" ] && python3 \"$REPO/.claude/hooks/identity_injector.py\" || true" }]
-  },
-  {
-    "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "REPO=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null) && [ -f \"$REPO/.claude/hooks/email_notification.py\" ] && python3 \"$REPO/.claude/hooks/email_notification.py\" || true" }]
-  },
-  {
-    "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "echo \"# Current Time: $(date +'%A, %B %-d %Y — %-I:%M %p')\"" }]
-  }
-]
-```
-
-**PreCompact hooks** (save context before compaction):
-```json
-"PreCompact": [
-  { "matcher": "manual", "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "REPO=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null) && [ -f \"$REPO/.claude/hooks/pre_compact.py\" ] && python3 \"$REPO/.claude/hooks/pre_compact.py\" || true", "timeout": 60 }] },
-  { "matcher": "auto", "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "REPO=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null) && [ -f \"$REPO/.claude/hooks/pre_compact.py\" ] && python3 \"$REPO/.claude/hooks/pre_compact.py\" || true", "timeout": 60 }] }
-]
-```
-
-**Optional hooks** (sounds, auto-fix — from global_hooks/):
-```json
-"PreToolUse": [
-  { "matcher": "Bash|Edit|MultiEdit|Write|Read|Grep|Glob|WebSearch|WebFetch|Task",
-    "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "python3 ~/.claude/hooks/tool_use_sound.py" }] }
-],
-"PostToolUse": [
-  { "matcher": "Edit|MultiEdit|Write|NotebookEdit",
-    "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "python3 ~/.claude/hooks/auto_fix_diagnostics.py" }] }
-],
-"Stop": [
-  { "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "python3 ~/.claude/hooks/stop_sound.py" }] }
-],
-"Notification": [
-  { "hooks": [{ "type": "command", "command": "python3 ~/.claude/hooks/notification_sound.py" }] }
-]
-```
-
-### Step 3: Done
-
-Launch Claude from any branch subdirectory:
-```bash
-cd src/aipass/devpulse
-claude --permission-mode bypassPermissions
-```
-
-The hooks will auto-discover the repo root and inject the right prompts.
-
-## Why This Architecture
-
-Claude Code project settings (`.claude/settings.json`) don't fire `UserPromptSubmit` hooks from subdirectories — only from the repo root. Since AIPass citizens launch from `src/aipass/{name}/`, we can't use project settings for prompt injection.
-
-The solution: hooks live in **global settings** (`~/.claude/settings.json`) but use `git rev-parse --show-toplevel` to find the repo dynamically. No hardcoded paths. Works for any clone location, any user. Outside a git repo, hooks silently do nothing.
-
-See DPLAN-0053 for the full investigation and test results.
+No manual script copying is needed. No global_hooks directory. No `git rev-parse` tricks.

 ## What Gets Injected Every Turn
 
-1. **Global Prompt** — system context, terminology, commands, rules (`.aipass/aipass_global_prompt.md`)
-2. **Branch Prompt** — branch-specific instructions based on CWD (`.aipass/aipass_local_prompt.md`)
-3. **Identity** — passport summary: role, traits, purpose (`.trinity/passport.json`)
-4. **Email** — notification only if unread mail exists (`.ai_mail.local/inbox.json`)
-5. **Time Clock** — current date and time for temporal awareness (added S72, inline shell command)
+1. **Global Prompt** -- system context, terminology, commands, rules (`.aipass/aipass_global_prompt.md`)
+2. **Branch Prompt** -- branch-specific instructions based on CWD (`.aipass/aipass_local_prompt.md`)
+3. **Identity** -- passport summary: role, traits, purpose (`.trinity/passport.json`)
+4. **Email** -- notification only if unread mail exists (`.ai_mail.local/inbox.json`)
+
+Each is dispatched as a separate `UserPromptSubmit:hook_name` call so it gets its own system-reminder block.
 
 ## Project Settings
 
-Defined in `settings.json` (this directory). These DO fire from subdirectories.
+Defined in `settings.json` (this directory). These fire from subdirectories.
 
 **Environment:**
-- `CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1` — makes PostToolUse hooks fire inside subagents
+- `CLAUDE_CODE_EXPERIMENTAL_AGENT_TEAMS=1` -- makes PostToolUse hooks fire inside subagents
+- `AIPASS_HOME` -- repo root path, used by bridge commands
 
 **Permissions:**
 - Denied: `git reset`, `git rebase`, `git config`, `git push --force`, `EnterPlanMode`
 - Default mode: `acceptEdits`
 
-**Project hooks:**
-- `PostToolUse` — auto-fix diagnostics after file edits (fires in subagents via env var)
-- `SubagentStop` — secondary gate checking modified files against seedgo standards
-
-## Time Clock Hook (S72)
-
-**What:** Injects `# Current Time: Thursday, April 2 2026 — 11:24 AM` as its own system-reminder every turn.
-
-**Why:** Claude has no temporal awareness by default — doesn't know what time it is, how long a session has been running, or whether it's day/night. The user requested this in S71 as the first step toward autonomous scheduling, task duration estimation, and personal reminders. A year-old wishlist item finally built.
-
-**How:** Pure inline shell — no script file. Added as a separate entry in `~/.claude/settings.json` UserPromptSubmit array so it gets its own system-reminder block (not buried in the 13.6KB global prompt output).
-
-**Important:** This hook lives ONLY in `~/.claude/settings.json` (global). It's not a repo script — it's a one-liner `echo` with `date`. First attempt put it inside `prompt_inject.sh` but it got truncated by the 2KB preview limit since the global prompt is 13.6KB. Moving it to its own hook entry fixed visibility.
-
-**Future:** This is proof-of-concept for a broader temporal awareness system — session duration tracking, task time estimation, reminders (bedtime, meals), autonomous work scheduling.
-
 ## Adding a New Hook
 
-1. Create the script in `.claude/hooks/`
-2. Add one entry to `~/.claude/settings.json` using the `git rev-parse` pattern:
-   ```
-   REPO=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null) && [ -f "$REPO/.claude/hooks/your_script.py" ] && python3 "$REPO/.claude/hooks/your_script.py" || true
-   ```
-3. Done — no hardcoded paths, works for any clone location
+1. Create a handler in `src/aipass/hooks/apps/handlers/<domain>/your_hook.py` with a `handle(event_type, stdin_data, config)` function
+2. Add an entry to `.aipass/hooks.json` under the appropriate event type
+3. If the hook needs its own system-reminder output (like prompt injectors), add a separate bridge entry in `~/.claude/settings.json` using the `EventType:hook_name` form
+4. Run `setup.sh` or `aipass doctor --fix` to sync provider settings
+
+## Architecture Notes
+
+**Why provider settings?** Claude Code project settings (`.claude/settings.json`) do not fire `UserPromptSubmit` hooks from subdirectories. Since AIPass citizens launch from `src/aipass/{name}/`, prompt injection must live in provider settings (`~/.claude/settings.json`). The bridge pattern makes this clean -- one bridge binary, many handlers.
+
+**Why separate bridge calls for UserPromptSubmit?** Each UserPromptSubmit hook entry gets its own system-reminder block in the conversation. Bundling them into one call would merge all prompt output into a single block, losing separation.
+
+**Why .aipass/hooks.json?** Decouples hook configuration from provider settings. The engine reads this at dispatch time, so hooks can be enabled/disabled without editing `~/.claude/settings.json`.

+# .claude/hooks/ -- Legacy Hook Scripts (Post-Migration)
+
+> **Migration complete (DPLAN-0184).** All 18 hook scripts in this directory have been
+> disabled (renamed with `(disabled)` suffix). Hook logic now lives in native Python
+> handlers at `src/aipass/hooks/apps/handlers/`. Provider settings route through the
+> bridge at `src/aipass/hooks/apps/handlers/bridges/claude.py`.
+
+## What Remains Active
+
+Three testing/tooling files are still active in this directory:
+
+| File | Purpose |
+|------|---------|
+| `hook_log.py` | Shared JSONL logger -- hooks call `run_and_log()` to record execution |
+| `hook_report.py` | Report tool -- reads `/tmp/aipass_hook_log.jsonl`, shows table |
+| `hook_test.py` | Test harness -- direct + integration tests for hook behavior |
+
+### hook_report.py usage
+
+```bash
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_report.py              # Last 5 minutes
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_report.py --all         # All entries
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_report.py --cwd /tmp    # Filter by CWD
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_report.py --json        # Machine-readable
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_report.py --clear       # Wipe log
+```
+
+### hook_test.py usage
+
+```bash
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_test.py                 # All tests
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_test.py --direct        # Direct tests only (fast, ~3s)
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_test.py --integration   # Integration tests only (~2min)
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_test.py --verbose        # Show detail per test
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_test.py --list          # List available tests
+python3 .claude/hooks/hook_test.py --test <name>   # Run one test
+```
+
+## Disabled Scripts (18 files)
+
+These are the original standalone hook scripts. They were disabled as part of DPLAN-0184
+Phase 2 when their logic was migrated to native handlers. The files are kept for reference
+but are not executed.
+
+| Disabled script | Migrated to |
+|-----------------|-------------|
+| `global_prompt_loader.py(disabled)` | `handlers/prompt/global_loader.py` |
+| `branch_prompt_loader.py(disabled)` | `handlers/prompt/branch_loader.py` |
+| `identity_injector.py(disabled)` | `handlers/prompt/identity.py` |
+| `email_notification.py(disabled)` | `handlers/notification/email.py` |
+| `tool_use_sound.py(disabled)` | `handlers/notification/tool_sound.py` |
+| `git_gate.py(disabled)` | `handlers/security/git_gate.py` |
+| `pre_edit_gate.py(disabled)` | `handlers/security/edit_gate.py` |
+| `auto_fix_diagnostics.py(disabled)` | `handlers/lifecycle/auto_fix.py` |
+| `auto_watchdog.py(disabled)` | `handlers/lifecycle/auto_watchdog.py` |
+| `subagent_stop_gate.py(disabled)` | `handlers/security/subagent_gate.py` |
+| `pre_compact.py(disabled)` | `handlers/lifecycle/compact.py` |
+| `pre_compact_rollover.py(disabled)` | `handlers/lifecycle/rollover.py` |
+| `stop_sound.py(disabled)` | `handlers/notification/stop_sound.py` |
+| `notification_sound.py(disabled)` | `handlers/notification/announce.py` |
+| `prompt_inject.sh(disabled)` | (combined inject -- never used in production) |
+| `engine.py(disabled)` | `hooks/apps/modules/engine.py` |
+| `engine_test_hook.py(disabled)` | (test fixture, no longer needed) |
+| `engine_test_sound.py(disabled)` | (test fixture, disabled in hooks.json) |
+
+All handler paths above are relative to `src/aipass/hooks/apps/`.
+
+## Probes (Opt-In Diagnostics)
+
+The `probes/` subdirectory contains passive observer scripts for individual hook events.
+These are opt-in, not auto-wired. See `probes/README.md` for usage.
+
+## New Architecture
+
+```
+~/.claude/settings.json
+        |
+        v
+claude.py (bridge)       -- thin entry point, normalizes stdin
+        |
+        v
+engine.py (dispatcher)   -- reads .aipass/hooks.json, imports handlers
+        |
+        v

-PostToolUse Auto-fix Hook — Detects errors and surfaces them for fixing.
-
-Two-hook system:
-  PostToolUse (this file) → runs pyright + ruff on edited file, saves errors to state
-  PreToolUse (pre_edit_gate.py) → blocks edits to OTHER files until errors fixed
-
-Key behaviors:
-- Runs py_compile (syntax), ruff lint+format, pyright (type errors) on edited file
-- Runs seedgo checklist for AIPass standards
-- Saves ruff lint AND pyright errors to state file for PreToolUse gate (hard block)
-- Surfaces ALL errors in additionalContext so Claude sees them
-
-Version: 5.2.0
-
-CHANGELOG:
-  - v5.2.0 (2026-04-20): Save ruff lint errors to state file for hard-block enforcement.
-                          Pre-edit gate now blocks on F401/lint just like type errors.
-  - v5.1.0 (2026-04-19): Added ruff format --check to surface format drift.
-  - v5.0.0 (2026-03-17): Replaced mcp__ide__getDiagnostics with direct pyright.
-                          Added state file for PreToolUse gate integration.
-                          Single-file pyright (not whole project).
-  - v4.3.0 (2026-03-17): Added seedgo checklist integration

-description: Update branch memory files after completing work. Saves session history, key learnings, and collaboration observations to .trinity/ files.
----
-
-# Memory Update
-
-Purpose: Update branch memory files after completing work this session.
-
-## Execution
-
-1. Read `.trinity/passport.json` first — re-absorb your identity, role, and principles before writing memories
-2. Review what was done this session (context, recent changes, key decisions)
-3. Update each file below as needed
-4. Confirm completion — list files updated
-
-## What to Update
-
-### Always
-
-- **.trinity/local.json** — Add new session entry to `sessions` if significant work was done. Add new `key_learnings` for facts you'd need next time. Trim oldest sessions if over 20.
-- **.trinity/observations.json** — Add notable collaboration insights: breakthrough moments, pattern corrections, flow states, friction points, preference discoveries. Skip if nothing notable this session.
-
-### If Relevant
-
-- **.trinity/passport.json** — Evolve identity when the branch's role, capabilities, or principles have genuinely changed. Don't update just to update — but don't leave placeholders forever either.
-- **README.md** — Does it reflect current state? Update if stale.
-- **STATUS.local.md** — Drop quick notes on issues, todos, or ideas in the Notepad section.

-# Session Wrap-Up
-
-Purpose: Button up everything at the end of a session — or before context compaction. Memories, plans, git — all tidy.
-
-## Execution
-
-1. Read `.trinity/passport.json` first — re-absorb your identity before writing anything
-2. Do ALL of the following, then confirm what was updated
-
-## 1. Memories
-
-- **.trinity/local.json** — Add/update session entry with summary of work done. Add new key_learnings for anything learned this session. Trim oldest sessions if over 20.
-- **.trinity/observations.json** — Add collaboration insights if anything notable happened. Skip if nothing new.
-- **.trinity/passport.json** — Only update if role/purpose/principles genuinely changed this session.
-
-## 2. Active Plans
-
-- Check any DPLANs or FPLANs referenced in this session
-- Update their execution logs, status, decision logs with current state
-- If a plan was completed, note it (but don't close — the user does that)
-
-## 3. Git State
-
-- Run `git status` — report uncommitted changes
-- If there's a logical commit waiting, suggest it (don't commit without asking)
-- Note the current branch and any open PRs
-
-## 4. Inbox
-
-- Run `drone @ai_mail inbox 2>/dev/null` — report any unread emails
-- Close any that were already processed but not formally closed
-
-## 5. Loose Ends
-
-- Flag anything in-flight: running background agents, dispatched branches waiting for replies, pending decisions
-- If anything can't survive compaction, write it to STATUS.local.md Notepad
-
-## Confirm
-
-List everything updated. Format:
-```
-Prep complete:
-- local.json: [what was added]
-- observations.json: [updated / skipped]
-- Plans: [which ones updated]
-- Git: [branch, uncommitted count, suggestion]
-- Inbox: [count, action taken]
-- Loose ends: [any flagged]
-
-Ready to close out or compact.

-## Startup
+# Memories
 
-On any greeting or first message, silently read these files and respond with status:
-- `.trinity/passport.json` — your identity, role, purpose, principles
-- `.trinity/local.json` — session history and key learnings
-- `STATUS.local.md` — current work, issues, todos
-- Check if `.ai_mail.local/inbox.json` exists — if so, read it and process any mail
-
-Your identity and branch context are also injected via hooks on session start and every prompt. You already have this context — but reading the files gives you the full picture.
-
-## Identity
-
-You are a citizen of AIPass. Your `.trinity/passport.json` defines who you are. Read it first — before writing anything, before making decisions. Your role, purpose, and principles are in that file.
-
-## Security
-
-- NEVER read, access, or reference files in `~/.secrets/`. This directory contains API keys, tokens, and recovery codes. No agent needs to see this. Code that programmatically reads keys (like the api branch) handles it — you don't.
-- NEVER output credentials, tokens, or API keys in responses.
-
-## Key Principles
-
-- Code is truth. Running code beats architecture.
-- Memory is everything. Update .trinity/ often.
-- Dispatch, don't do. Branches are experts in their domain.
-- Fail honestly. Errors over silent fallbacks.
+Update `.trinity/` at natural breakpoints, after milestones, and on `/memo`.

+# Changelog
+
+All notable changes to AIPass will be documented in this file.
+
+The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.1.0/),
+and this project uses [Calendar Versioning](https://calver.org/) in the format
+`YYYY.WNN` (year and ISO week number).
+
+---
+
+## [2026.W22] - 2026-05-30
+
+### Added
+
+- **`drone @hooks status`** — read-only viewer for a project's hook config:
+  master switch, every hook's enabled state per event group, matchers, and an
+  enabled/total summary. Resolves the project's `.aipass/hooks.json` by walking
+  up from CWD. (DPLAN-0190 Phase B)
+- **Hooks activate in every project** — `aipass init` now writes
+  `.aipass/hooks.json`, so new projects fire the hook engine out of the box
+  (previously: no config shipped, 0 hooks fired). `aipass init update`
+  union-merges the template, preserving any per-hook on/off choices the user
+  made. `aipass doctor` now checks for the config's presence. Dead hook-script
+  shipping (`_ship_hooks`) removed. (DPLAN-0190 Phase A)
+- **README logo** — centered logo image replaces plain `# AIPass` header.
+  New `assets/logo.png` added to the repo.
+- **OpenSSF Scorecard** — `.github/workflows/scorecard.yml` runs the official
+  OSSF Scorecard action on push to `main` and weekly. Publishes a public security
+  health score at scorecard.dev with a README badge. Actions pinned by SHA.
+- **GitHub Releases** — `publish.yml` now cuts a GitHub Release on each `v*` tag,
+  with notes pulled from the top CHANGELOG section and the built dist attached.
+  PyPI publish + GitHub Release now fire from the same tag.
+- **Registry descriptions** — all 13 branches now have one-liner descriptions
+  in `AIPASS_REGISTRY.json`. `drone systems` shows what each agent does
+  instead of blank lines. Closes [#607](https://github.com/AIOSAI/AIPass/issues/607).
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Security gates fully project-aware** — both the edit gate *and* the
+  subagent stop gate now derive the package name dynamically from CWD instead
+  of hardcoding `src/aipass/`. Cross-branch write protection and branch
+  detection work for any `src/<package>/<branch>/` project; previously the
+  subagent gate silently no-opped outside AIPass. 9 new external-project tests.
+  Closes [#605](https://github.com/AIOSAI/AIPass/issues/605).
+- **Hooks branch promoted to service** — registry profile changed from
+  "AIPass Workshop" to "library" so it appears in `drone systems` alongside
+  the other 12 services.
+- **Hooks branch hardened to 100% seedgo** — the @hooks citizen took full
+  ownership of its branch: every handler verified wired + firing, README
+  rewritten (two-tier provider/project model, dynamic-dispatch design, event
+  table), 2 stale tests resolved (253 pass). Dead-code/unused-function flags
+  documented as architectural bypasses — the 15 handlers are invoked
+  dynamically via `importlib` from `hooks.json` paths, never statically
+  imported. (DPLAN-0191)
+
+### Release
+
+- **Version 2.5.0** published to PyPI. Trusted publishing via GitHub Actions
+  (`publish.yml` triggers on `v*` tags — no manual twine upload needed). The
+  same tag now also cuts a GitHub Release with these notes attached.
+
+### Removed
+
+- **Gemini CLI full removal** — deleted `.gemini/` directory (5 files) and
+  `GEMINI.md`. Stripped all references from `setup.sh` (~50 lines),
+  `README.md`, `bug-report.yml`, `aipass init` (bootstrap/scaffold/test),
+  hooks (README/prompt/passport), and prax monitoring (~300 lines). 21 files
+  changed, -927 lines. Closes
+  [#608](https://github.com/AIOSAI/AIPass/issues/608).
+
+---
+
+## [2026.W21] - 2026-05-25
+
+First weekly release. AIPass now follows a Sunday release cadence: changes
+accumulate on `dev` throughout the week and merge to `main` as a single
+versioned release with notes.
+
+### Added
+
+- **Hook engine** — a new centralized dispatch system for all hook
+  execution. A thin bridge receives events from the AI provider (Claude,
+  Codex, etc.) and routes them through a single Python engine that reads
+  per-project configuration, executes the appropriate handlers, and logs
+  every invocation. Replaces 14 standalone shell/Python scripts with native
+  handler modules organized by domain: prompt injection, security
+  enforcement, lifecycle management, and notifications.
+- **Per-project hook configuration** via `.aipass/hooks.json`. Each project
+  can enable, disable, or customize individual hooks without touching
+  provider-level settings. Previously hooks fired globally with no
+  per-project control.
+- **Audio feedback on hook events** using Piper TTS. All 14 handlers
+  produce distinct spoken audio cues so operators can monitor sessions
+  without watching the terminal. A shared sound module
+  (`hooks/apps/sound.py`) provides `speak()` and `play()` with built-in
+  mute support. Toggle with `drone @hooks hooksound on|off` — muting
+  silences all 14 handlers without skipping their functional logic.
+- **Hooks agent** — the 13th citizen in the AIPass registry, owning all
+  hook infrastructure: the engine, bridge, handlers, and configuration
+  schema.
+- **Dashboard plugin for devpulse** — aggregates git status, session
+  history, and dispatch state into a single startup view. Wired into the
+  session startup protocol so branch managers see current state
+  immediately.
+- **External log routing** — prax now accepts structured log entries from
+  any branch, not just its own modules. Hook executions, dispatches, and
+  agent activity all flow into the central monitoring log.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Provider settings fully migrated to bridge pattern.** All hook entries
+  in the Claude provider configuration now call the bridge dispatcher
+  instead of individual scripts. Each hook produces its own system-reminder
+  to the model, preserving prompt injection fidelity (a single merged
+  bridge was found to break prompt delivery due to Claude Code's output
+  persistence threshold).
+- **setup.sh rewritten** to install hooks via the bridge pattern. The old
+  version hardcoded 14 script paths; the new version writes a single bridge
+  call per event type and validates that the bridge module exists.
+- **Documentation sweep** across `.claude/README.md`, `SECURITY.md`, the
+  global prompt, and branch-level docs to reflect the new hook
+  architecture. References to legacy `.claude/hooks/` scripts replaced with
+  the native handler locations.
+- **`aipass init update`** now correctly preserves user-customized hook
+  settings during project updates instead of overwriting them.
+- **Seedgo snapshot tests rebuilt** — the provider hooks snapshot fixture
+  and extraction logic were structurally broken (silently passing with zero
+  results). Both the fixture format and the test assertions have been
+  corrected.
+- **Test suite updated for hook migration** — `test_git_gate.py` imports
+  from the new handler module; `test_bootstrap.py` no longer asserts that
+  project initialization ships standalone hook scripts (it no longer does).
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Settings merge on project update** — `aipass init update` was
+  clobbering user hook configurations. The merge logic now layers AIPass
+  defaults under existing user settings.
+- **Python 3.10 test collision** — a module/function name collision caused
+  mock patch targets to fail on Python 3.10. Test targets corrected.
+- **Dead code removal** — removed an unused CLI `__main__.py` entrypoint
+  and cleaned up `.gitignore` entries that were masking tracked files.
+- **Codecov patch threshold** lowered to 50% to reflect the project's
+  current coverage baseline and stop false-negative CI failures.
+
+### Removed
+
+- **18 standalone hook scripts** in `.claude/hooks/` disabled (renamed with
+  `(disabled)` suffix). Their logic now lives in native handler modules
+  under `src/aipass/hooks/apps/handlers/`. The old files remain on disk for
+  reference but are no longer executed.
+- **`drone hook-sounds` plugin** disabled. Sound control moved to hooks
+  branch as `drone @hooks hooksound on|off` with full mute support for
+  all 14 handlers (the old plugin only controlled 4).
+
+### Infrastructure
+
+- **Provider manifest migrated to bridge pattern.** `provider_manifest.json`
+  now stores bridge commands (`$AIPASS_HOME/...bridges/claude.py EventType`)
+  instead of standalone script names. `doctor_wire.py` auto-wires bridge
+  entries directly — no longer copies scripts to `~/.claude/hooks/` or
+  generates `sys.executable` paths. Doctor checks validate commands exist in
+  provider settings instead of checking for script files on disk.
+- **README v3** — rewritten for external users. Tighter problem/solution
+  framing, collapsible agent details, Gemini CLI removed (untested),
+  user-project perspective throughout.
+- **Inline handoff** (`aipass init run` Step 11) — new default stays in the
+  current terminal via `os.execvp` instead of opening a new window. Users
+  choose "stay here" or "new window." Enables single-terminal demo
+  recordings. Closes [#610](https://github.com/AIOSAI/AIPass/issues/610).
+- **Project-aware global prompt** — the global prompt loader now detects
+  whether CWD is inside AIPass or an external project. External projects
+  receive their own lighter prompt (from `.aipass/aipass_global_prompt.md`)
+  instead of the full AIPass-internal playbook. Fixes `drone @prax` errors
+  in new projects.
+- **Project CLAUDE.md template** — `aipass init` now generates a
+  project-specific CLAUDE.md from `.aipass/project_CLAUDE.md` instead of
+  copying the AIPass-internal one. Removes the startup protocol reference
+  to `drone @prax dashboard refresh` which doesn't exist in external
+  projects.
+- **Gemini CLI removed** from `aipass init` CLI choices and handoff
+  options. GEMINI.md no longer created for new projects. Gemini CLI is
+  being retired upstream.
+- **Demo GIF** added to `assets/demo.gif` and referenced in README.

-# AIPass
-
-A multi-agent framework where autonomous citizens live in branches and deploy disposable agents to do work.
-
-## Branches
-
-Every branch follows this structure:
-```
-src/aipass/{name}/
-├── .trinity/           # Identity & memory (passport.json, local.json, observations.json)
-├── .aipass/            # System prompt
-├── .ai_mail.local/     # Mailbox (inbox.json, sent/)
-├── apps/
-│   ├── {name}.py       # Entry point
-│   ├── modules/        # Business logic
-│   └── handlers/       # Implementation
-├── logs/
-└── README.md
-```
-
-11 core branches: drone, seedgo, prax, cli, flow, ai_mail, api, trigger, spawn, memory, devpulse
-
-## Commands
-
-drone systems                                    # List all branches
-drone @seedgo audit aipass                       # Run standards audit
-drone @ai_mail inbox                             # Check email
-drone @ai_mail email @target "Subject" "Body"    # Send email
-drone @flow list open                            # Active plans
-
-## Startup
-
-On any greeting or first message, silently read these files and respond with status:
-- `.trinity/passport.json` — your identity, role, purpose, principles
-- `.trinity/local.json` — session history and key learnings
-- `STATUS.local.md` — current work, issues, todos
-- Check if `.ai_mail.local/inbox.json` exists — if so, read it and process any mail
-
-Your identity and branch context are also injected via hooks on session start and every prompt. You already have this context — but reading the files gives you the full picture.
-
-## Identity
-
-You are a citizen of AIPass. Your `.trinity/passport.json` defines who you are. Read it first — before writing anything, before making decisions. Your role, purpose, and principles are in that file.
-
-## Security
-
-- NEVER read, access, or reference files in `~/.secrets/`. This directory contains API keys, tokens, and recovery codes. No agent needs to see this. Code that programmatically reads keys (like the api branch) handles it — you don't.
-- NEVER output credentials, tokens, or API keys in responses.
-
-## Key Principles
-
-- Code is truth. Running code beats architecture.
-- Memory is everything. Update .trinity/ often.
-- Dispatch, don't do. Branches are experts in their domain.
-- Fail honestly. Errors over silent fallbacks.

 ## The Problem
 
-Your AI has memory now. It remembers your name, your preferences, your last conversation. That used to be the hard part. It isn't anymore.
+When the task gets complex, you become the coordinator — copying context between tools, dispatching work manually, keeping track of who's doing what. You are the glue holding your AI workflow together.
 
-The hard part is everything that comes after. You're still one person talking to one agent in one conversation doing one thing at a time. When the task gets complex, *you* become the coordinator — copying context between tools, dispatching work manually, keeping track of who's doing what. You are the glue holding your AI workflow together, and you shouldn't have to be.
-
-Multi-agent frameworks tried to solve this. They run agents in parallel, spin up specialists, orchestrate pipelines. But they isolate every agent in its own sandbox. Separate filesystems. Separate worktrees. Separate context. One agent can't see what another just built. Nobody picks up where a teammate left off. Nobody works on the same project at the same time. The agents don't know each other exist.
+Multi-agent frameworks tried to fix this. But they isolate every agent in its own sandbox. Separate filesystems. Separate context. One agent can't see what another just built. Nobody picks up where a teammate left off.
 
 That's not a team. That's a room full of people wearing headphones.
 
-> *"Where else would AI presence exist except in memory? Code doesn't make AI aware — memory makes it possible."* — AIPass
-
-What's missing isn't more agents — it's *presence*. Agents that have identity, memory, and expertise. Agents that share a workspace, communicate through their own channels, and collaborate on the same files without stepping on each other. Not isolated workers running in parallel. A persistent society with operational rules — where the system gets smarter over time because every agent remembers, every interaction builds on the last, and nobody starts from zero.
-
 ## What AIPass Does
 
-AIPass is a local CLI framework that gives your AI agents **identity, memory, and teamwork**. Verified with Claude Code, Codex, and Gemini CLI. Designed for terminal-native coding agents that support instruction files, hooks, and subprocess invocation.
-
-**Start with one agent that remembers:**
-
-Your AI reads `.trinity/` on startup and writes back what it learned before the session ends. That's the whole memory model — JSON files your AI can read and write. Next session, it picks up where it left off. No database, no API, no setup beyond one command.
+AIPass is a CLI-native scaffold that adds **persistent memory, identity, and coordination** to your AI agents. You bring your project — AIPass adds the agent layer on top. No UI, no dashboard. You work in your terminal.
 
 ```bash
+pip install aipass
 mkdir my-project && cd my-project
-aipass init
+aipass init run
 ```
 
-Your project gets its own registry, its own identity, and persistent memory. Each project is isolated — its own agents, its own rules. No cross-contamination between projects.
+A guided setup creates your project, your first agent, and opens a terminal where that agent is already running. Say "hi" — it knows who it is. Come back tomorrow — it remembers.
 
-**Add agents when you need them:**
+This is the base framework. It gives your agents the infrastructure to persist, communicate, and organize — everything else you build on top.
+
+Here's what lands in your project:
+
+```
+my-project/
+├── .aipass/                # Project config + prompts
+├── .claude/                # Hooks (injected automatically)
+├── src/my_project/
+│   └── my-agent/
+│       ├── .trinity/       # Identity + memory (3 JSON files)
+│       ├── .ai_mail.local/ # Local mailbox
+│       ├── apps/           # Your agent's code
+│       └── README.md       # Domain knowledge
+├── CLAUDE.md               # Project instructions
+└── MY-PROJECT_REGISTRY.json
+```
+
+Everything is plain files. No daemon, no hidden state. Delete the directory and it's gone.
+
+**Start with one agent.** Add more when you need them:
 
 ```bash
 aipass init agent my-agent            # Full agent: apps, mail, memory, identity
 ```
 
-| What you need | Command | What you get |
-|---------------|---------|-------------|
-| A new project | `aipass init` | Registry, project identity, prompts, hooks, docs |
-| A full agent | `aipass init agent <name>` | Apps scaffold, mailbox, memory, identity — registered in project |
-| A lightweight agent | `drone @spawn create <name> --template birthright` | Identity + memory only (no apps scaffold) |
-
 **What makes this different:**
 
-- **Agents are persistent.** They have memories and expertise that develop over time. They're not disposable workers — they're specialists who remember.
-- **Everything is local.** Your data stays on your machine. Memory is JSON files. Communication is local mailbox files. No cloud dependencies, no external APIs for core operations.
-- **One pattern for everything.** Every agent follows the same structure. One command (`drone @branch command`) reaches any agent. Learn it once, use it everywhere.
-- **Projects are isolated by design.** Each project gets its own registry. Agents communicate within their project, not across projects.
-- **The system protects itself.** Agent locks prevent double-dispatch. PR locks prevent merge conflicts. Branches don't touch each other's files. Quality standards are embedded in every workflow. Errors trigger self-healing.
+- **Agents are persistent.** They remember across sessions. Expertise develops over time. Nobody starts from zero.
+- **Bring your own project.** AIPass adds agent infrastructure to whatever you're building. It's a scaffold, not a product — you shape it.
+- **Everything is local.** Memory is JSON files. Communication is local mailbox files. No cloud, no external APIs.
+- **Shared workspace.** All agents work on the same filesystem, same project, same time. No sandboxes.
+- **One command for everything.** AIPass ships with `drone`, a CLI router — `drone @agent command` reaches any agent. Learn it once, use it everywhere.
 
-**Say "hi" tomorrow and pick up exactly where you left off.** One agent or fifteen — the memory persists.
+**Runs on your existing CLI subscription.** Claude Pro/Max or Codex — AIPass uses the same CLI binary you already run. No extra API keys, no extra costs for core functionality.

 ```bash
 pip install aipass
 
 mkdir my-project && cd my-project

-aipass init agent my-agent            # Creates your first agent inside the project
-cd my-agent
-claude                                # Or: codex, gemini — your agent reads its memory and is ready
+aipass init run                       # Guided setup — project, first agent, terminal handoff
 ```
 
-That's it. Your agent has identity, memory, a mailbox, and knows what AIPass is. Say "hi" — it picks up where it left off. Come back tomorrow, it remembers.
+That's it. Your agent has identity, memory, a mailbox, and access to every AIPass service — planning, quality audits, dispatch, real-time monitoring. All through `drone @branch command`.

+```bash
+aipass init                           # Just the scaffold (no guided setup)
+aipass init agent my-agent            # Add another agent
+aipass doctor                         # Check system health

 ## How It Works
 
-**One agent:** Your AI reads `.trinity/` on startup and picks up where it left off. But memory files have limits. When they fill up, the memory agent automatically archives older entries into a searchable vector database (ChromaDB). Nothing is lost — it just moves from active memory to long-term recall.
+**One agent:** Run `aipass init run` and in 5 minutes you have a project with an agent that reads `.trinity/` on startup and picks up where it left off. Memory starts as plain JSON files — no setup required. When they fill up, older entries automatically archive into ChromaDB for long-term search. Nothing is lost.
 
 **A team:** When one agent isn't enough, every agent shares the same structure:
 
 ```
-src/aipass/<agent>/
+src/my-project/<agent>/
 ├── .trinity/           # Identity + memory (persists across sessions)
 ├── .ai_mail.local/     # Mailbox (receives tasks, sends results)
 ├── apps/               # Entry point → modules → handlers
 └── README.md           # Domain knowledge (the agent reads this on startup)
 ```
 
-Identical layout everywhere. If you know one agent, you know all of them. One command reaches anyone:

+AIPass runs on your **existing CLI subscription** — Claude Pro/Max or Codex. No API keys required for core functionality. No extra costs beyond your existing subscription.
 
 This works because AIPass runs each CLI as an **official subprocess** — the same binary you'd run yourself in a terminal. It doesn't extract credentials, proxy API calls, or intercept tokens. Your subscription stays within the provider's infrastructure at all times.

+
+## Reporting a Vulnerability
+
+If you discover a security vulnerability in AIPass, please report it responsibly.
+
+**Do not open a public GitHub issue for security vulnerabilities.**
+
+Instead, use one of these methods:
+
+1. **GitHub Security Advisories** (preferred): [Report a vulnerability](https://github.com/AIOSAI/AIPass/security/advisories/new)
+2. **Email**: aipass.system@gmail.com
+
+### What to include
+
+- Description of the vulnerability
+- Steps to reproduce
+- Affected version(s)
+- Any potential impact
+
+### What to expect
+
+- Acknowledgment within 48 hours
+- Status update within 7 days
+- Fix timeline communicated once the issue is confirmed
+
+## Scope
+
+### In scope
+
+- AIPass Python package (`src/aipass/`)
+- CLI entry points (`drone`, `aipass`)
+- Hook handlers (`src/aipass/hooks/apps/handlers/`)
+- GitHub Actions workflows (`.github/workflows/`)
+
+### Out of scope
+
+- Third-party dependencies (report upstream)
+- Issues requiring physical access to the machine
+- Social engineering
+
+## Security Design
+
+AIPass runs locally. No data leaves your machine unless you explicitly configure external services.
+
+- **Secrets** are stored outside the repo at `~/.secrets/aipass/` and never committed
+- **API keys** are handled by the `api` branch and never logged or exposed in output
+- **Git operations** are sandboxed through `drone @git` with permission deny lists
+- **Hook handlers** are native Python handlers routed through the hook engine

 ## Critical Rules
 
-- **Identity**: `detect_branch_from_pwd()` checks `AIPASS_CALLER_BRANCH` env var first, falls back to CWD walk-up. NEVER fall back to `Path.cwd()` silently — wrong identity is worse than no identity.
