 Use `pnpm --filter @jcode.labs/ragmir <script>` for Core-only work. The pinned Node version lives in
 `mise.toml`; activate mise in your shell or run local workspace commands with that pinned version.
 Published packages require Node.js 22 or later, matching their manifests and release gate.

+- Default to solo unless the repository or request shows a team workflow. For a Git-backed team, propose the current upstream as authority and safe automatic pulls; offer --no-pull when Git updates must stay manual.
+- List selected source globs, exclusions, any external/private folder, and the exact package, config, skill, and download actions you would perform.
+- Ask only about unresolved choices that materially change source authority, data exposure, downloads, or external execution. Wait for one approval covering the proposal.

+Use a portable folder when an agent, automation, or server needs cited evidence but should not
+receive the original project tree:
+
+```bash
+rgr portable export --output ../operations-knowledge
+```
+
+Move the complete directory to a Node.js 22 host with the platform recorded in `manifest.json`, then
+verify it at the destination. The runtime and its native retrieval dependencies are embedded, so no
+package-manager install or registry access is needed after transfer:
+
+```bash
+cd /srv/operations-knowledge
+node bin/rgr.cjs portable verify . --json
+node bin/configure.cjs --list
+node bin/configure.cjs openclaw
+```
+
+For a destination path already used by agents, publish the next source revision with
+`rgr portable export --output /absolute/stable/path --replace`. Ragmir verifies the new folder first
+and preserves the old one as a timestamped sibling. Restart long-running agent processes after the
+switch, then retire the previous folder only after a representative query succeeds.
+
+Dedicated configuration output is available for OpenClaw, Claude, Codex, Kimi, OpenCode, and Cline.
+For OpenClaw, register the generated read-only server object then probe it:
+
+```bash
+openclaw mcp set ragmir "$(node bin/configure.cjs openclaw)"
+openclaw mcp doctor ragmir --probe
+```
+
+Hermes can use the generic MCP stdio configuration. n8n, CI, or a custom service can use the same MCP
+contract or invoke `node bin/rgr.cjs search ... --json` with an argument array. Do not concatenate an
+untrusted query into a shell command.
+
+Load `skills/ragmir-portable` for retrieval behavior and `skills/ragmir-decision-evidence` when an
+agent must compare options. The decision skill requires cited evidence, explicit inference and
+unknowns, and keeps action authority in the host. A knowledge-base result never authorizes a
+deployment, message, purchase, deletion, or other external side effect.
+
+The bundle is frozen. Its launcher rejects ingest, setup, repair, upgrade, storage, source, and
+deletion commands. Its MCP surface omits `ragmir_evaluate` because that operation can persist a
+quality report. Replace the bundle with a new export when source knowledge changes. Raw documents
+and access logs are excluded, but indexed passages are present and sensitive. See
