Phase 0 of plans/autonomous-survival-bot-prd.md: change the product
direction from operator-driven remote control to autonomous survival
resident. MC chat is dialog-only for everyone, including
OPERATOR_USERNAMES — commands like come/follow/build/pause/stop are
recorded in the diary but not dispatched. TUI remains the only local
control plane.
Runtime changes:
- Remove operatorGoalReflex from reflex.js (the come-here chat command).
- Replace handleOperatorChat in bot.js with a dialog-only handleChat
that answers greetings/status questions and records command-like
verbs (en+ru) without dispatching them.
- Default MC_VERSION to "auto" in runtime/config.js; mineflayer
receives `false` to trigger version auto-detection.
- Update auto-escalation prompt's reflex chain summary.
Docs:
- AGENTS.md: product pivot notice up top; chat-driven scope-trust is
flagged as legacy/Pi-only.
- README.md / docs/runtime.md: replace operator-chat command list with
dialog-only description; update reflex chain summary.
- docs/roadmap.md: Phase 2/3 marked superseded by the PRD where they
assumed chat-driven control.

Three things that together turn the bot from a reactive chat agent into
a goal-driven autonomous one.
1. Memory model (docs/memory-model.md, new). Formal split:
- SHARED knowledge — skills/, extensions/, prompts/, docs/,
.pi/settings.json — committed, community-improvable, portable to any
server.
- PERSONAL memory — state/<MC_HOST>/ — gitignored, per-instance, per-
server. Survives restarts (local disk), doesn't survive a re-clone
(deliberately). Holds goal.md, plan.md, current-task.json,
locations.json, diary/, inventory-log.jsonl, escalations.
Covers resume-after-restart protocol, what "abstract a lesson into a
skill" means, and the two anti-patterns (committing state, gitignoring
shared knowledge).
2. AGENTS.md changes:
- New section "Long-term goal and personal memory" wiring AGENTS.md
directly into state/<MC_HOST>/goal.md + current-task.json with a
pointer to docs/memory-model.md.
- Operating principle #4 ("I'll try to learn") rewritten with
**bias to action**: a pending stub is now a last resort, not a
default. Operator-trusted requests are themselves approval — bot
does not write a stub and wait for a separate "go".
Rationale: today's pyramid task got stuck because the bot wrote
a careful "pending" stub and waited; the operator had to send
"ты ждешь одобрения? можешь стартовать!" before any action. That
extra round-trip is the reflex this rewrite removes.
- Operating principle #5 ("live your best life when idle") expanded
to "goal-driven autonomy" with an explicit 5-level priority order
(operator task > non-op reply > resume current-task.json > next
plan milestone > decompose goal). Memory protocol made concrete:
write current-task.json before every meaningful action, append to
diary, keep locations.json fresh, tick off plan.md.
3. prompts/live-your-life.md (new). Canonical kickoff to switch the
bot into autonomous mode. Numbered concrete asks (re-read three
docs, write plan.md, implement memory protocol, implement
resume-on-restart, start). Includes a "plan.md draft for review"
gate so the operator can shape direction without micromanaging
execution. Designed to be sent after Phase 0/1/operator-trust are
stable and a goal.md exists for the target server.
Companion seed (local-only, NOT in this commit because gitignored):
state/play.xmatic.team_25565/goal.md — "build a small village and
survive long-term, live like a farmer". Lives only on the operator's
machine; a fresh clone won't see it.
README and roadmap updated with the new Phase 3 status (🌱 → 🌿
kickoff) and pointers to the new memory-model doc.

Phase 0 (body) is done. The next steps shouldn't be guessed prompt-by-prompt —
write down the order, the judgement principles, and the next concrete
session prompt, so the bot has a coherent direction and the human can
hand it off in one message.
- docs/roadmap.md (new): six phases, each with status, scope, and stretch.
Phase 0 = 🌳 done, Phase 1 = 🌿 in progress, the rest = 🌱.
Explicit non-goals (no PvP, no OP, no cross-server identity).
- AGENTS.md: First-objective section collapsed to a pointer at the
onboarding skill (it's been done). New "What to do, in priority order"
summary citing the roadmap. New top-level "Operating principles"
section: presence, bounded reconnect, hold focus, "I'll try to learn"
reflex, idle = best-life mode, escalate destructive doubt with a
JSONL log under state/<host>/escalations.jsonl.
- prompts/awake-and-live.md (new): canonical kickoff prompt for the
next session. Scopes itself explicitly to phases 1+5+6 and excludes
locomotion (phase 2 needs care, separate session).
- README Status: 🌳 Phase 0 done / 🌱 Phase 1 in progress, links to
roadmap and operating principles.
