- you correct a team rule the session was shown (the card proposes changing it, with the current text struck through);
- you ask the agent to remember something as a rule (the card appears as soon as the agent saves it, always as a new rule: changing a team rule comes from correcting it).

Cards are shown by the TUI and by the VS Code extension from its release with workspace rules, for the project they have open and in its top-level sessions. Where no attached client shows cards (`altimate-code run`, ACP, the Claude Code and Codex plugins, a subagent's session), the save tools work as they did before cards: a rule is saved for this project only, a memory to memory, and nothing goes to review; corrections are kept, and proposed the next time that session runs with a client that shows cards. A card you asked for ("remember …") that closes without an answer (after a day, or when the session server stops) is saved the same way. Requests are kept in the project's rules state while their card is open: if the server exits unexpectedly, or a save fails for a passing reason (a busy disk, a lock), the next session server that opens the project saves them. A request is dropped, with a log line, only when it can never be saved as asked (the project's memory or training is full, or the text is too long for a memory block). While 50 requested cards are open, a new request is saved right away instead of raising a card.

While 50 requested cards are open, a new request is saved right away instead of raising a card.

The card never blocks the input: keep typing, and answer it when you are ready. **ctrl+x p** (or a click) moves to the card; **←/→** choose an action, **Enter** confirms, **Esc** goes back to typing. The card shows the proposed wording, what it applies to, why it was proposed and your correction. **Enter** on the first action sends it to the owner's review queue (the workspace's **Rules** tab); for the workspace owner, it approves it at once instead. **e** edits the wording, and **n** ("Not a rule") stops a correction's topic from being proposed for 30 days (on a card you asked for, it just closes it). A rule that tells the agent to skip or disable verification (tests, CI, hooks, `--no-verify`) is flagged: the owner approves it with "Approve anyway", which takes a second Enter (a client answers it with the `approve_anyway` action; a plain `approve` is refused). Nothing reaches a teammate until it is approved. A card nobody answers is dropped when the session server stops, and after a day (an answer after that closes it instead). A card is answered for the account and workspace it was shown for: after signing in as someone else or relinking, it closes without sending anything.

**Rule or memory.** A personal preference ("I prefer CTEs") or a fact ("our warehouse is Snowflake") is saved to memory without review. When the agent saved it with `training_save`, a preference goes to your own memory (all your projects) and a fact to this project's memory (outside a linked project, `training_save` saves project training as before). When it saved it with the memory tool, it stays in that tool's project memory. When the wording does not say which, the card asks: Memory, Team rule, or Skip.

**Where they live.** Approved team rules are mirrored into the `workspace-rules` store (`.altimate-code/learn/workspace-rules/`), which is git-ignored and written only by sync: the name is reserved for it, and a store you create needs another `--name`. Your other stores, including one named `team`, are not touched. Team rules stop being delivered when the project is unlinked, when you sign out, when the workspace refuses access, and while workspaces are turned off (`ALTIMATE_DISABLE_WORKSPACE`); they come back with the next sync.

**Commands.** `/rules` in the TUI lists team rules and your proposals with their status. `altimate-code learn sync` syncs now; `learn status` shows the workspace rules line, your learning setting and the last proposal check. In a linked project, `learn bootstrap` and `learn import-reviews` list the rules they staged from history and ask before sending them to the owner's review in the named workspace (default no). Without a terminal, `--send-for-review` sends them; `--yes` only confirms the model step. Declined rules stay local candidates (`learn show`, `learn promote`).

MAJOR (security, plausible, not reproduced): resumed-session snapshots are still vouched for by rule id alone.

if (name === Store.WORKSPACE_RULES_STORE && (!workspacesOn() || !(await (vouched ??= this.vouched())).has(lesson.id))) {

The frozen wording and the rendered section stay in project-local .altimate-code/learn/.sessions/. A session that ran on v0.12.9 could have frozen the wording of a planted approved.json. After the upgrade, once a clean pull puts that same rule id in the private state, this check accepts the old snapshot, and section()/prepare() keep serving the attacker's wording. The new id+text filter in the fresh-delivery path doesn't cover resume. This needs (a) a session that ran on v0.12.9 and is resumed later, and (b) a planted id that matches a real rule key the person later pulls. It is still a leftover of the exact bug this PR fixes.

Suggestion: checking against the current text alone would break legitimately frozen wording after an edit. Instead, keep a hash of each frozen rule's wording in private state outside the project and check against it, or invalidate every snapshot written before this upgrade. Add a test: a poisoned snapshot with a legitimate id but different text, then a clean pull, then a resume that must not serve the poisoned text.

Not changed here, on purpose. Before this fix nothing about the in-project state is carried over, and that was a deliberate decision: the feature had no real users on v0.12.9, so there is no migration and no patching of pre-fix state. A session snapshot frozen on v0.12.9 is the same kind of leftover. Your precondition (b) also needs the planted id to be a real rule key of the person's workspace, which they then pull.

Snapshots written from now on are safe: a snapshot freezes what delivery gave, and delivery now builds every team rule from the private state (see the MINOR below). So a snapshot can only hold wording the person's own pull vouched for. .sessions files are keyed by sha256(session id) and checked against the session id inside, so a branch can't plant one for a session it can't name.

The pre-upgrade leftover is now listed under "No migration" in the description. If you would still rather close it, the smallest fix is a version marker on snapshots, so that an unmarked one with team rules is rebuilt. That is about 3 lines plus a test, and I can add it.

Re-review at c90755d: thanks for the detailed reasoning. It does narrow the exposure, and snapshots written from now on are safe. But neither point covers snapshots that already exist: keying by session id proves which session a snapshot belongs to, not where its wording came from. Since this is a security release and the fix is small, please add the snapshot version marker you offered (rebuild an unmarked snapshot that holds team rules) with a test. That plus the test guard is all that's left before approval.

Read workspace rules before the project mirror check.

In approved(), the raw === undefined check runs before the workspace-rules branch calls this.vouched(). When workspace-rules/approved.json is absent, the loop skips the store. A project can therefore hold valid rules in the person's rules state and still deliver no team rules in a new session. The base revision had the same gate. The new team-rules source does not need the mirror, so the gate now blocks that source.

Resolve the workspace-rules branch before the mirror check. Keep the mirror check for the other stores. The usage and shown.jsonl safe-path checks must still run for the workspace-rules store.

Update approved() to resolve the WORKSPACE_RULES_STORE branch using
this.vouched() before applying the raw === undefined mirror check, while
retaining that check for other stores. Ensure workspace rules still pass through
the existing usage and shown.jsonl safe-path checks.
