Memory-file load telemetry gains size fields and skips automem in one mode

The CLAUDE.md load event now records instruction sizes and is skipped in one mode that also limits auto-memory

Unclear The finding does not say which mode this is or how a user enters it.

What

The tengu_claudemd__initial_load event, recorded when your CLAUDE.md instruction files are first loaded, now also records:

  • instructions_content_length: the total size of the loaded instructions.
  • max_file_content_length: the size of the largest single file.

In one mode the event is no longer recorded at all, and in that same mode the auto-memory list is reduced to its single non-index entry.

Why

The event now shows how large the loaded instructions are. In the one mode affected, less auto-memory is loaded.
