 **kimetsu-pi** brings [Kimetsu](https://kimetsu.dev) — a local-first memory brain
 for coding agents — to the [Pi](https://pi.dev) coding agent.
 
-Coding agents are brilliant and forgetful: every session starts from zero. Kimetsu
-is a sidecar brain that captures the lessons your agent earns, learns which ones
-actually help, and hands them back before the next task. The memory pipeline makes
-**no LLM calls** — storage and retrieval are 100% local, free, and offline-capable.
+Kimetsu carries useful lessons between sessions and retrieves relevant project
+knowledge before a task. Storage and retrieval run locally without LLM API calls.
+Automatic lesson extraction can use a configured model; its cost and connectivity
+depend on that configuration.

 ## What it is
 
-Pi has no MCP layer, so this package brings Kimetsu to Pi through Pi's own
-extension points:
+This package connects Kimetsu through Pi's native extension and skill interfaces:
 
 - **Extension** (`extensions/kimetsu.ts`) — a TypeScript Pi extension that hooks
-  Pi lifecycle events (`session_start`, `before_agent_start`, `agent_end`,
-  `session_shutdown`) and shells
-  out to the `kimetsu` binary to warm, load, and persist brain context around each
-  session. Interactive hooks have a 10-second timeout; session saving has a
+  Pi lifecycle events and invokes the `kimetsu` binary to warm, load, and persist
+  brain context around each session. Interactive hooks have a 10-second timeout;
+  session saving has a
   separate five-minute limit for model-based distillation. If the binary is not
   on `PATH`, every hook silently no-ops and Pi is
   completely unaffected.
 - **Skill** (`skills/kimetsu-brain/SKILL.md`) — a Pi skill that teaches the agent
-  when and how to consult and record memories during a task.
+  to reuse injected context, correct outdated memories, and cite memories that
+  actually helped during a task.
+
+## What's new in 0.1.4
+
+- Fresh memory per task: older raw injections are excluded from model requests
+  and new summaries, including after corrections, queued user messages, and
+  branch changes.
+- Session saving gets up to five minutes, while interactive hooks retain their
+  10-second limits.
+- Updated guidance for memory reuse, corrections, and usefulness feedback.
+- Verified with Pi 0.85.1 and Kimetsu 2.8.0 on Linux, macOS, and Windows; updated
+  dependencies, isolated integration tests, and protected CI and release gates.
 
 ## Why Kimetsu
 
-- **Remembers what matters** — conventions, failure patterns, the exact command
-  that regenerates your schema. Captured once, retrieved by meaning.
+- **Remembers project knowledge** — conventions, failure patterns, and useful
+  commands stay available across sessions.
 - **Speaks first** — proactive session-start digests, episodic resumes, and
   pre-task context, so the agent's first turn already knows your repo.
-- **Learns what helps** — cited memories get promoted; stale advice decays and is
-  pruned.
-- **Model-free retrieval** — FTS5 + local embeddings + local reranking. Zero API
-  cost, works offline.
-- **Stays yours** — one SQLite file per project. No cloud, no vector DB, no
-  telemetry. Back it up with `cp`.

-|---:|---|
-| **89.4%** | LoCoMo, the long-conversation memory benchmark |
-| **83.0%** | LongMemEval, the public long-term-memory benchmark |

-| **13×** | cheaper per solved task ($0.19 vs $2.47 on a Terminal-Bench slice) |
-| **~1M** | memories in ~3 GB RAM with sub-2s retrieval, one SQLite file |
+- **Learns what helps** — citations provide usefulness feedback; maintenance
+  identifies memories that may need pruning.
+- **Local retrieval** — lexical search in the default lean build, with optional
+  local embeddings and reranking. No LLM API calls for retrieval.
+- **Stays yours** — a local SQLite brain per project, with optional user-wide
+  memory. No hosted vector database is required.

+## Upgrade
+
+For an installation that follows the latest npm version:

+For a pinned installation, select this version explicitly:
