- cortex/static/TOOLS.md — tool reference extracted from HELP.md; uses ##
headers so each category is collapsible. All 30 tools with descriptions.
- cortex/static/HELP.md — UI guide only; tools section replaced with a
one-line pointer to the Tools tab.
- help.html — three tabs (UI Guide / Tools / Persona); tab choice persists
in localStorage. Tools tab defaults all sections open. Persona tab shows
home/{user}/persona/{name}/HELP.md with an empty-state message if unset.
- context_loader.py — loads cortex/static/TOOLS.md into context at tier 2+
(replaces the previously empty persona HELP.md load). Persona HELP.md
still loaded if non-empty, as persona-specific additions.

- Add cortex/persona.py: ContextVar-based per-request routing with
path traversal protection and persona validation
- Migrate inara/ → personas/inara/ (git history preserved via git mv)
- config.py: add personas_root(), inara_path() delegates to personas/inara
- All 14 settings.inara_path() call sites replaced with persona_path()
- ChatRequest + OrchestrateRequest: add persona field (default: "inara")
with validation at request entry before any processing
- memory_distiller: add optional persona param for future per-persona distill
- cron_runner/tools/cron: stamp persona on jobs, prefix APScheduler IDs
(persona:job_id) to prevent collisions across personas
- scheduler: _load_user_crons() iterates all personas at startup
Adding a new persona: create personas/<name>/ with IDENTITY.md + SOUL.md.
Auth: handled at nginx level (inject X-Cortex-Persona header per subdomain).
Future: persona maps to Aether account_id_random for full integration.

Cortex: FastAPI backend serving Inara via Claude/Gemini CLI backends.
Includes SSE streaming chat, session persistence, Google Chat webhook
handler, and Docker support.
Inara: Identity files (persona, soul, protocols, memory, context tiers)
mounted read-only into the container at runtime.
Features in initial cut:
- /chat endpoint with SSE keepalive + LLM fallback
- Session store with rolling history window
- Markdown rendering, copy-to-clipboard, links open in new tab
- Stacked right-column input controls (height selector, enter toggle,
note mode with public/private) — semi-hidden until textarea grows
- /note endpoint for injecting public context into session history
- Docker Compose config (local dev runs natively; Docker for server)
