This is pretty close to what I've been working on. I'm building a CLI tool called fai that formalises a lot of what you're doing here — context lives in Markdown files in the project (we call it a vault), syncs with git, travels with the project across devices and tools. The session start/end review you're doing manually is baked into the workflow – fai captures decisions, patterns, and notes during a session and digests them at the end so the next session starts with a meaningful summary rather than a blank slate.

The independent journalling angle is interesting. We have a similar concept where the AI maintains its own notes separate from the shared project context. What you're calling Claudius's independent perspective, we'd call the session layer. Still in early release but the core mechanic is the same thing you've landed on... context that belongs to the project, not the platform.
