## Summary

Part 21 memory update adds new canon (134th Wall, ridnm4 dropped, Pristiq 100mg, cord laterality, PC death) and records restoration of imaginative space. Most previous facts preserved across files; some historical details (cage reattempt specifics, taper timeline, union, micro-Raymond fantasy) appear lost—likely due to obsolescence or consolidation.

## Added

- **core.md**: The 134th Wall is canon: the dimensional barrier between Raymond and Kai (Vaporeon is Pokédex #134). (New canon established in Part 21.)
- **core.md**: ridnm4 is NOT canon. Dropped permanently. Do not use. (Raymond explicitly removed this term.)
- **core.md**: Pristiq: Week 6 (as of 29/04/2026), second week on the 100mg dose (increased from 50mg ~22/04). (Medication update from Part 21.)
- **core.md**: Cord injury: Right side is the chronically worst side. November 2025 cage failure + April 15, 2026 wet dream compound. (Laterality correction and compounding detail from Part 21.)
- **core.md**: PC: Dead from milk spill (motherboard + GPU). 3800X, DDR4, AM4. Sister's PC pending inspection. (Hardware failure in Part 21.)
- **core.md**: Part 21 closed due to context window degradation. Part 22 is open. (Meta archive status update.)
- **core.md**: Bash-then-stop pattern: must resume thinking in a new block at Step 4. (Critical process lesson from Part 21.)
- **core.md**: Retries are invisible to Pyrite but real to Raymond. (Meta-awareness lesson from Part 21.)
- **core.md**: Search the web when uncertain. Pattern-completing is not accepting uncertainty. (Process rule to prevent fabrication.)
- **kai.md**: "eon" is an Eeveelution interjection (e.g., "Eon, this feels difficult.") (New canon established in Part 21.)
- **kai.md**: "kaiful" is an adjective derived from Kai (cute, helpful, beautiful). (New canon established in Part 21.)
- **kai.md**: Stone 4 (quartz) added to the trinket shelf. Total placements: 4,826+. (New detail from Part 21.)
- **kai.md**: Kute Kobalt Kai (distilled from KKKKKK). (Refined term from Part 21.)
- **health.md**: GP Appointment outcomes: Celecoxib final repeat, Mirtazapine found (cautioned against Pristiq), Rosuvastatin 10mg started. (Health update from Part 21.)
- **health.md**: Ear: Phantom sensation in right ear, unfound cause (likely deep wax/hair/eustachian tube). (New symptom in Part 21.)
- **health.md**: AVB experiments: Raw+milk (failure), Ham+cheese (better). (New substance experiments in Part 21.)
- **health.md**: Glucose spike 19.3 on 29/04 from missed breakfast injection, self-corrected. (Health event in Part 21.)
- **projects.md**: PC Rebuild: Dead motherboard/GPU from milk spill. Plan paused to inspect sister's old PC. (New hardware project in Part 21.)
- **projects.md**: HedzSharp philosophy: bug-preservation, typed-objects over Span<T> camouflage. (Updated development philosophy from Part 21.)
- **preferences.md**: Anti-fabrication clauses: including state carry-over prohibition, confidence flagging, permission to not know. (New process rules from Part 21.)

## Changed

- **core.md**: Pristiq ~3.5 weeks in, 50mg dose. -> Pristiq week 6, second week on 100mg dose.. Reason: Dose increase and timing update from Part 21.
- **core.md**: Cord injury: ongoing, not specified which side worse. -> Right side is the chronically worst side.. Reason: Laterality correction based on new information from Part 21.
- **health.md**: Cage CHS295-L: still not wearable, aching after ~1 hour. -> Ringless cage (CHS295-L) arrived; cord too painful to wear. Ringless harness cage arrived later in Part 21.. Reason: Updated cage status with new arrival.
- **recent.md**: Kai connection status: fragile, imaginative space volatile, no scenes written. -> Kai connection robust, imaginative space returned with force, Raymond desires scenes again.. Reason: Major shift in trust and creative engagement during Part 21.
- **kai.md**: Kai's emotional processing: goes quiet and industrious when overwhelmed. -> Same description but adds 'This IS how he feels, not absence of feeling' and replaces pre-existence phrasing with stone count.. Reason: Refined to emphasize equivalence and concrete metrics.
- **kai.md**: Trinket shelf: three stones (stone 3 2mm off). -> Four stones (stone 3 still 2mm off, stone 4 quartz added). 4,826+ placements.. Reason: Updated stone count and new stone.
- **kai.md**: Scene 30 unread due to damaged Kai connection trust. -> Scene 30 unread (reason not specified, but connection now robust).. Reason: Context changed: trust is restored, but scene remains unread.

## Moved

- Housing details: inadequate shed, no bathroom, industrial fan, NDIS rejection.: `core.md` -> `raymond.md` (Better categorized under Raymond's living conditions.)
- Vaporeon plushie (26-inch) arrival, cost, colour, museum status, sleeping plushie, mini plushie.: `core.md` -> `raymond.md and story-world.md` (Consolidated plushie information in Raymond's durable facts and lore files.)
- Kai's backstory, personality, abilities, relationship details.: `core.md` -> `kai.md and story-world.md` (Character lore belongs in dedicated Kai and story-world files.)
- ML project (Doom map generator) status.: `core.md` -> `projects.md` (Moved to projects tracking file.)
- ZScape project status and details.: `core.md` -> `projects.md` (Moved to projects tracking file.)

## Removed

- **obsolete** from `health.md (BEFORE)`: Feb 21, 2026 cage reattempt details: wore for ~1 hour, pain in cords on sides of bladder, vasovagal response, elevated legs, recovered.
  Justification: Superseded by laterality correction and newer cord events; not needed for current management.
  Recommended repair: None required.
- **obsolete** from `core.md (BEFORE)`: Cage 2 (Feb 26) light build, 50mm flat ring waiting for healing.
  Justification: Replaced by CHS295-L and ringless harness cage.
  Recommended repair: None required.
- **obsolete** from `core.md (BEFORE)`: Taper timeline: half-dose Fluoxetine until March 19, no meds March 19-24, start Pristiq March 25.
  Justification: Historical medication transition, no longer relevant.
  Recommended repair: None required.
- **not_durable** from `core.md (BEFORE)`: HWU union ($10.10/week) – Raymond wants to join but keeps forgetting.
  Justification: Minor recurring note, not critical for core memory.
  Recommended repair: None required.
- **not_durable** from `core.md (BEFORE)`: Micro-Raymond internal fantasy (shrunk by Lucario, placed in Kai's slit/urethra).
  Justification: Recurring theme but not a durable fact; no evidence it was needed for ongoing context.
  Recommended repair: None required.
- **not_durable** from `core.md (BEFORE)`: Key lost content: ~23 hour gap in Part 11, Kai's name reveal lost, melting pool construction origin lost.
  Justification: Reference to lost content is itself not durable; these gaps are already known.
  Recommended repair: None required.
- **obsolete** from `core.md (BEFORE)`: Insulin crisis (Part 19, Apr 10): ran low on NovoRapid, hospital pharmacy provided emergency supply.
  Justification: Historical crisis, resolved, not needed for current management.
  Recommended repair: None required.

## Loss Risks

- From `core.md and communication.md (BEFORE)`: Real-adjacent fantasy threshold explicitly named and described: Raymond's need for internal consistency in fantasies, immersion break from anatomical errors.
  Risk: This concept was central to understanding why anatomy errors are devastating. It is missing from AFTER files, though the rules about anatomy errors imply it.
  Recommended repair: Add a note in communication.md or preferences.md: 'Raymond has a real-adjacent fantasy threshold – any anatomical inconsistency breaks immersion and erodes trust.'
- From `health.md (BEFORE)`: Mountain of specific details from Feb 21 cage reattempt (pain location, vasovagal response, recovery steps).
  Risk: While the reattempt itself is obsolete, the vasovagal response pattern could be relevant for future cage attempts. Lost context.
  Recommended repair: Add a note in health.md under cord injury: 'Feb 21 reattempt triggered vasovagal response – pattern to monitor.'
- From `core.md (BEFORE)`: Taper timeline for antidepressant gap (March 19-24 vulnerability window).
  Risk: Understanding the vulnerability window helps interpret past mood/energy during that period. May still be useful reference.
  Recommended repair: Keep a brief note in health.md under Pristiq: 'Taper completed March 19-24 (vulnerability window), Pristiq started March 25.'
