Additional notes for reviewers

Hooks, a status-line extension and two commands (setup, configure); no skills, agents or MCP servers. The hooks record session and tool activity to a local state file that the status line reads. It makes no network requests. Needs Node 18+ and jq; hooks ship for both bash and PowerShell.
