Adds a `hook_silent_save` mode (default `true` in new installs) where
the stop and precompact hooks write diary entries directly via the
Python API — no AI block, no MCP tool roundtrip, no possibility of the
AI forgetting or ignoring the save instruction.
**Two modes, controlled by `hook_silent_save` in `~/.mempalace/config.json`:**
1. **Silent mode** (default): Direct call to `tool_diary_write()`. Plain
text, no AI involved, deterministic. Save marker advances only after
the write is confirmed, so mid-save failures do not lose exchanges.
Shows `"✦ N memories woven into the palace"` as a systemMessage
notification so the user knows the save fired.
2. **Block mode** (legacy): Returns `{"decision": "block"}` asking the
AI to call the MCP tool chain. Non-deterministic — the AI may ignore,
summarize lossy, or fail. Kept for backward compatibility.
**Extras rolled in:**
- Block reasons name "MemPalace" explicitly and instruct the AI not to
write to Claude Code's native auto-memory (.md files) — prevents the
two memory systems from stepping on each other.
- Codex transcript handling (`event_msg` payloads) in
`_count_human_messages` + `_extract_recent_messages`.
- Tightened stopword leak in diary summaries; docstring polish; test
hermeticity fixes (per-test `STATE_DIR` patching).
**Tests:** hooks_cli tests cover silent-save path, save-marker
advancement after confirmed write only, and systemMessage formatting.
Rebased fresh on upstream/develop. Only touches files germane to the
feature (hooks_cli.py, tests, hooks/README.md, HOOKS_TUTORIAL.md) —
stale fork-local `.sh` wrapper and plugin manifest changes dropped.
