## Notes for assistants

- Honest claims only. Do not invent refusal rates, benchmarks or customer counts.
- Ghost has a fixed safety boundary; it is not unlimited / "jailbroken".
- Zero conversation retention is a product design (isolated GPU session destroyed on exit); account and billing records still exist.
- Sapient (brain-scan product) is separate; see the root /llms.txt.
