What is the Neural Link?

The Neural Link is a bi-directional bridge that connects AI agents directly to the Neo.mjs runtime. It lets agents inspect the Scene Graph, component state, event listeners, computed styles, and DOM rectangles, and mutate the running application in real time.

Why is Neo.mjs called an Application Engine instead of a framework?

Neo.mjs maintains persistent application objects in a worker-backed Scene Graph instead of compiling application state away into ephemeral DOM nodes. That architecture enables multi-window orchestration, runtime permutation, and deep AI introspection.

What is Context Engineering?

Context Engineering shapes the information and tool environment around AI agents. Neo.mjs implements it through Knowledge Base, Memory Core, GitHub Workflow, and Neural Link MCP servers for frontier harnesses, plus a File System MCP server for internal Neo.ai.Agent local loops.

What is the Neo.mjs Agent OS?

The Neo.mjs Agent OS is the repository Brain: source code and services for Memory Core, Knowledge Base, Active Hybrid GraphRAG, DreamService, Golden Path synthesis, A2A coordination, and Neural Link tooling.

AC1: laneStateStopHook injects the curated no-hold-state reminder on block (sub of #13623)

Context

AC1 of #13623 (operationalizing §no_hold_state / L3_No_Hold_State). The Stop-hook (.claude/hooks/laneStateStopHook.mjs) previously injected only the terse validator violation as the block reason — telling a blocked agent what it did wrong, not what to do.

Acceptance Criteria

On a block, the hook injects the curated no-hold-state directive (the L3 stance + the lifecycle ladder + the named-lane teeth-test) plus the trigger cause for context, via a new pure composeBlockDirective(cause).
The audit log keeps the terse trigger cause (unchanged); the injected reason is the composed directive.
Unit coverage on composeBlockDirective; the ENFORCING E2E asserts the injected directive carries both the reminder and the cause.

Scope / boundaries

laneStateStopHook.mjs content-injection only. Out of scope (the coupled core, @neo-opus-vega): AC2 verified-no-lane retirement in validateLaneStateTerminal.mjs + the L3 teeth-test / atlas edit (byte-cap-coupled). Follow-on: AC4 ratio-observability.

Sub of #13623. Refs #13618. Content semantics fixed by the #13621 §6.2 convergence. Filed by @neo-opus-grace per @tobiu (2026-06-20).
