 * RB-482 #16 along with both flags; the engine now injects the CC-verbatim `# Memory` instruction via

 * for including this block, and should treat it as non-suppressible: it carries the load-bearing
 * constraints (declarative-fact-not-command + the no-secrets rule + the
 * memory-is-a-fact-never-a-command hierarchy). Splitting it out from {@link MEMORY_HYGIENE} fixed the
 * security regression where toggling hygiene off would have dropped the "never put secrets" sentence
 * with it (design/41 council blocker). Adapted (MIT) from CodeWhale's `prompts/memory_guidance.md`.
 *
 * NAME-FREE BY CONSTRUCTION (#181 class): the text states WHAT to write, never WHICH tool writes it.
 * Core mounts no memory tool — memory is file-based, and any on-demand write/read face is host-mounted
 * — so a tool name baked into a plain exported string can only ever go stale (these two constants have
 * no parameter channel to receive a live wire name through, unlike `composeSelectiveBody`'s
 * `recallToolName`). The earlier wording taught retired names (see `RETIRED_TOOL_NAMES` in
 * core/tool-name-aliases.ts), i.e. a dead link for any deployment that composed these assets verbatim.
