2026 record.

Why it mattersA project can move its coordinator path toward the same append-only AEM record used by the public primitive without a destructive conversion or a stranded earlier history. The update also adds preservation, inspection, and rollback guidance for stores carrying either generation.

ScopeUntagged public source snapshot for the AEM v0.2.0 compatibility update. The coordinator package remains pre-release at 0.0.0, and this does not establish an automated migration, update channel, or upgrade guarantee. Preserve and verify a project’s own store before upgrading.

Why it mattersIt lets a project carry forward the reason and active state of a specific piece of work instead of leaving every continuity signal as a flat collection of notes. The original append-only 0.1 store and familiar commands remain usable.

ScopeUntagged public source snapshot labeled 0.2.0, not a claim that every agent, fork, or adapter supports the new methods. Existing 0.1 stores are readable, but projects should preserve and verify their own store before upgrading.

Why it mattersIt gives a Hermes session more ways to orient around a specific artifact or current thread without making Hermes the definition of AetherMind. The underlying record remains project-local.

ScopeUntagged public source snapshot labeled 0.2.0. This remains an Apache-2.0 reference adapter, not a universal runtime guarantee; projects should preserve and verify their own continuity store before upgrading.

Why it mattersIt makes the higher-level coordinator inspectable as its own public surface, rather than collapsing it into the smaller continuity primitive or a particular adapter.

ScopePre-release, source-available code. It is not the MIT primitive and does not establish the same behavior for every harness or environment.

Why it mattersIt gives readers a concrete, inspectable control-plane experiment without asking them to confuse one local implementation with the whole AetherMind project.

ScopePrototype material. It is not a universal runtime layer and does not claim that context resumption is solved for production use.

Why it mattersIt gives newcomers a precise reason to use the primitive: carry durable working judgment beside the work, without presenting it as a replacement for source records, retrieval, or memory.

ScopeThe MIT primitive is deliberately small. This correction does not bring the coordinator or private operational surfaces into the public package.

Why it mattersIt makes the integration's write discipline easier to inspect as one concrete adapter contract, instead of treating the Hermes path as the definition of AetherMind everywhere.

ScopeThis is one optional Hermes integration. It does not demonstrate identical behavior across models, agents, or non-Hermes harnesses.

Why it mattersIt preserves the artifact trail behind an earlier question and gives later benchmark design something concrete to examine, rather than asking readers to accept a claim at face value.

ScopePublished on 26 May 2026, commit 9272d62, with no tagged release. It uses an older implementation and harness, so its scores are historical rather than current or portable.
