Current state rewritten to the active build task: containerize the production
Zonos2 :1920 TTS engine as a self-contained image (config captured in 14a0004)
and prototype the operator's prosody-priming hypothesis (prime→generate-one-
utterance→parakeet-clip→deliver, adapter-level, engine stays stock). New detail
file + Recent-decisions pointer capture the full plan + the crux (does AR prosody
carry the sentence boundary — A/B the join). /tmp handoff written for the fresh session.
Split the 53 over-threshold dated log entries (Recent decisions, Tried
and abandoned) into per-entry persistent-memory.d/<slug>.md detail files,
leaving one-line pointers in the index; the 10 short entries stay inline.
Startup index drops 60,527 -> 25,256 bytes (492 -> 270 lines); entry
bodies move verbatim to on-demand detail files, so a fresh session loads
~25 KB instead of ~60 KB and pulls a detail file only when its pointer is
relevant. Top matter (Repo purpose, Tools & conventions, Current state)
is unchanged; both archival back-references preserved.
CLAUDE.md persistent-memory section now documents the index<->detail read
discipline (read the index, pull details on demand, never bulk-read the
dir, commit both together).
Auto-archival still held every dated entry back (all <30 days old); the
July burst begins aging past the 30-day guard ~2026-07-31.
