basemind 0.2.4

Full AI context layer over MCP — tree-sitter code-map, document RAG (PDF/Office/HTML/email + OCR + reranker), shared agent memory, on-demand web crawl, git history + blame + per-symbol diff. 300+ languages, 8 coding-agent harnesses, content-addressed Fjall + LanceDB.

# basemind SessionStart hook.
#   1. Async pre-warm: ensure a version-matched basemind binary is cached so the
#      first MCP tool call isn't a cold install. After the first run the launcher's
#      fast path makes this instant.
#   2. Context-economy nudge: always inject the operating discipline so the agent
#      defaults to basemind over grep/read and stays token-frugal.
#   3. Status-line nudge: Claude Code plugins cannot set the main status line, so
#      if the user hasn't wired it yet, append a hint about /bm-statusline.
#
# Output goes to stdout as the hook's JSON result; diagnostics would go to stderr.

CONTEXT="basemind is available over MCP in this session — a tree-sitter code map + git context. Prefer it over grep/read for structural and historical questions: its tools return paths, line numbers, and signatures, not file bodies, so they cost a fraction of the tokens of reading source. Default workflow: outline a file before opening it (then read only the span you need); search_symbols instead of grep for a definition; find_references/find_callers instead of grepping call sites; workspace_grep instead of shelling out to ripgrep; rescan after edits instead of reconnecting. Do not re-read a file basemind already mapped."

# 3. Append the status-line nudge only when it isn't wired yet.
