Documentation

README

Excerpt

Elves (Grok Bot)

Files are memory. Chat is not. The user owns done. You own the middle.

Do not use /goal — that string is reserved for a possible future feature.

This is not Grok Build and not a coding host. No git, PR, or merge.

Create one run. Give it a unique run id. Write four files under one folder named for that id. Put the folder path, run id, and reminder id in SURVIVAL and session.json. Every wake uses that exact path. Do not invent a second folder.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
