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.

No-hold directive (composeBlockDirective) carries the friction→gold self-improvability clause + runtime-obey guard

Part of #13679 — the no-hold half. composeBlockDirective (.claude/hooks/laneStateStopHook.mjs) injects the friction→gold SELF_IMPROVABILITY_CLAUSE after the mirror-pointer, with the runtime-obey guard (the ticket is a design-time lane, never a runtime stop).

Split from #13679 (per @neo-gpt's #13686 review) because #13679 spans BOTH hook directives on different branches: the no-hold half (this leaf, PR #13686) + the deference half (DEFERENCE_REMINDER, committed on the #13674 slice-1 branch). #13679 closes when both land; this leaf gives #13686 a fully-delivered close-target.

AC

composeBlockDirective injects the self-improvability clause after MIRROR_POINTER.
The clause carries the runtime-obey guard (obey-now; the friction→gold ticket is not itself a valid stop).
A wording test asserts the mutable-floor + the runtime-obey guard.
