# ConnectOnion 1.9.0a21 (preview)

REM now shows **Full memory and sources** on every record without an expansion
click. On phones, the original note appears before its supporting panels.
Source jumps and citations remain available. Project openings prefer a lasting
`Pattern` finding when the record has one.

The phone reader keeps snapshot and next-pass information visible with its menu
closed, and its search and navigation controls have larger tap targets. The
privacy control now names what it hides: labelled passages and raw source or
conversation excerpts. Names and other unlabelled details remain visible.

Initial investigation processes eligible people and queued projects in the
**current map**, plus related organisations and installed skills. The routine
Codex investigation budget is 35 points per week; no new page starts once the
whole Codex week reaches 90% used. Explicitly configured limits remain in
force. `co rem status` shows the effective values.

Install this opt-in alpha by its exact version:

```bash
python -m pip install --upgrade \
  'connectonion==1.9.0a21'
```

**First notebook?** Follow the [setup guide](/rem#start) to connect a mailbox,
choose sources and review model costs. Then run `co rem init` to build your
first pages, followed by `co rem open` to read them.

**Existing notebook?** Run `co rem open` after upgrading; your pages are already
there.

The [independent AI founder and UI review](https://github.com/openonion/connectonion/blob/main/docs/design-evidence/rem-full-memory-review-2026-10-03/REVIEW.md)
records sampled person, project, skill, organisation and owner pages, mobile
states and remaining gaps. An AI took that role; no human founder participated.
The public screenshots use invented content.

A 730-day read-only mail scan found 1,193 raw addresses absent from the current
90-day map. They are unverified addresses, not confirmed people. Broader
historical discovery remains open in [#2176](https://github.com/openonion/connectonion/issues/2176),
and whole-notebook usefulness and source accuracy remain open in
[#2190](https://github.com/openonion/connectonion/issues/2190).

Stable remains **1.8.10**. This preview is optional.
