Memory citations in Claude's responses are now analyzed for structure and quality:
- The system counts open/close tag pairs, tagged content characters, memory file counts, and whether the
filenamesattribute is missing - Malformed or stripped
<cc-memory>content in thinking blocks is handled separately - Improved instructions tell Claude when and how to wrap memory-citing sentences in
<cc-memory filenames="...">...</cc-memory>tags
