Adds "## Persistent memory (`persistent-memory.md`)" to the global CLAUDE.md, placed directly
after the cognitive-load-reduction section because persistent memory is that mission's instrument:
it is what lets the operator re-enter a project without reloading its context.
Deliberately a POINTER, not a copy. The canon is the /snapshot skill
(~/.claude/skills/snapshot -> ~/development/galdrabok/skills/snapshot, version-controlled there);
the section says so explicitly and forbids restating it here or in a project CLAUDE.md, because a
second copy is a sync surface that drifts silently.
What it does carry is the four things a session needs BEFORE it loads the skill: read
persistent-memory.md at session start; check /tmp/<althing-handle>-handoff.md and its 1h staleness
rule; never bulk-read persistent-memory.d/; commit memory alongside the work. Plus the three-way
split (project CLAUDE.md / auto-memory / persistent-memory) with the redundancy test, because that
boundary is the one sessions actually get wrong.
Fleet state at time of writing: 48 repos carry persistent-memory.md, 18 carry persistent-memory.d/.
Stamped with the date so it reads as a snapshot rather than a standing fact.
