+### Bundle Export / Import
+
+```bash
+ocas export <root>... -o <bundle.tar>     # write CAS closure of roots to tar
+ocas import <bundle.tar> [--scope @new]   # merge bundle into current store
+```
+
+`ocas export` walks `cas_ref` edges **and** schema chains from each root, then
+writes a self-contained POSIX-tar archive containing every reachable CAS node
+(`cas/<hash>.bin`, CBOR-encoded), every variable whose `value` is in-closure
+(`vars.jsonl`), and every tag attached to an in-closure target (`tags.jsonl`).
+
+`ocas import` is content-addressed and idempotent — re-importing the same
+bundle is a no-op. `--scope @new` rewrites the leading `@scope/` of every
+imported variable name except `@ocas/*` builtins.
+
+`--store <bundle.tar>` is a global flag that swaps the store backend for
+read-only commands. Internally this calls `loadBundleStore()` (from
+`@ocas/core`) which returns an in-memory `Store` populated from the bundle,
+without touching `~/.ocas`. Write commands (`put`, `tag`, `gc`, `import`,
+`var set`, `template set`, …) refuse with an explicit error when `--store`
+is set.

-
-      ## Phase 1: CAS Core Operations
-
-      1. **bootstrap** — `$CMD bootstrap`
-         Expected: prints meta-schema hash (13-char Base32)
-
-      2. **schema put** — Create `/tmp/test-schema.json` in container, then `$CMD schema put /tmp/test-schema.json`
-         Schema: `{"type":"object","properties":{"name":{"type":"string"},"age":{"type":"number"}},"required":["name"],"additionalProperties":false}`

-
-      14. **cat --payload** — `$CMD cat <node-hash> --payload`
-          Expected: payload only (no type wrapper)
-
-      ## Phase 2: Schema Validation
-
-      1. **Invalid node** — `$CMD put <type-hash> /tmp/bad-node.json` where bad-node = `{"name":123}`
-         Expected: validation error, non-zero exit
-
-      2. **schema validate** — `$CMD schema validate <node-hash>`
-         Expected: valid for good node
-
-      3. **Non-existent schema** — `$CMD put AAAAAAAAAAAAA /tmp/test-node.json`
-         Expected: error about missing schema
-
-      ## Phase 3: Variable System
-
-      1. **var set** — `$CMD var set myapp/config <node-hash>`
-         Expected: creates variable
-
-      2. **var get** — `$CMD var get myapp/config --schema <type-hash>`

-
-      5. **var set (update)** — Put a second node, `$CMD var set myapp/config <new-hash>`
-         Expected: upsert succeeds
-
-      6. **var tag** — `$CMD var tag myapp/config --schema <type-hash> env:prod important`
-         Expected: adds tag and label
-
-      7. **var list --tag** — `$CMD var list --tag env:prod`
-         Expected: finds tagged variable
-
-      8. **var list --tag (label)** — `$CMD var list --tag important`
-         Expected: finds labeled variable
-
-      9. **var tag remove** — `$CMD var tag myapp/config --schema <type-hash> :important`
-         Expected: removes label
-
-      10. **var delete** — `$CMD var delete myapp/config`
-          Expected: deletes variable
-
-      11. **var get (deleted)** — `$CMD var get myapp/config --schema <type-hash>`
-          Expected: not found error
-
-      ## Phase 4: Template System
-
-      1. **template set** — Create template file, `$CMD template set <type-hash> /tmp/test.liquid`
-         Template: `Name: {{ payload.name }}, Age: {{ payload.age }}`

-      3. **template list** — `$CMD template list`
-         Expected: lists templates
-
-      4. **template delete** — `$CMD template delete <type-hash>`
-         Expected: success
-
-      5. **template get (deleted)** — `$CMD template get <type-hash>`
-         Expected: not found error
-
-      ## Phase 5: Render
-
-      1. Re-register template, then `$CMD render <node-hash>`
-         Expected: rendered output with payload values filled in
-
-      2. **render --resolution** — `$CMD render <node-hash> --resolution 0.5`
-         Expected: different resolution output
-
-      3. **render (bad hash)** — `$CMD render AAAAAAAAAAAAA`
-         Expected: graceful error, non-zero exit
-
-      ## Phase 6: GC
-
-      1. **gc basic** — `$CMD gc`
-         Expected: runs without error
-
-      2. **gc preserves referenced** — Verify `$CMD has <node-hash>` still true
-
-      3. **gc collects orphans** — Put an orphan node (not in any variable), run gc, check it's gone
-
-      ## Phase 7: Edge Cases & Error Handling
-
-      1. `$CMD get AAAAAAAAAAAAA` — non-existent
-      2. `$CMD put <type-hash> /nonexistent/file.json` — missing file
-      3. `$CMD var set "" <hash>` — empty name
-      4. `$CMD var set "bad name!" <hash>` — invalid name chars
-      5. `$CMD schema put /tmp/bad-schema.json` — `{"type":"invalid"}`
-      6. `$CMD` with no subcommand — should show help
-      7. `$CMD --store /nonexistent/path get <hash>` — bad store path
-
-      ## Recording Results
-
-      For each scenario:
-      - ✅ Pass: works as expected
-      - ❌ Fail: unexpected behavior, crash, wrong output
-      - ⚠️ Questionable: works but confusing UX
-
-      Collect all ❌ and ⚠️. For each, record:
-      - Title (concise description)
-      - Command (exact command run)
-      - Expected behavior
-      - Actual behavior (include actual output)
-      - Severity: critical / high / medium / low
-      - Phase: which test phase
-
-      ## CRITICAL: Frontmatter Output Format
-
-      Your response MUST start with YAML frontmatter. The `bugs` field MUST be an array of objects, NOT strings.
-
-      Example of CORRECT frontmatter:
-      ```yaml
-      ---
-      $status: bugs_found
-      containerName: json-cas-e2e
-      repoPath: /path/to/repo
-      bugs:
-        - title: "put does not validate data against schema"
-          command: "json-cas put <hash> bad-data.json"
-          expected: "Validation error, non-zero exit"
-          actual: "Accepted invalid data, exit 0"
-          severity: "high"
-          phase: "Schema Validation"
-      ---
-      ```
-
-      Do NOT write bugs as plain strings like `- some bug description`. Each bug MUST be an object with all 6 fields.
-
-      If all tests pass:
-      ```yaml
-      ---
-      $status: all_passed
-      containerName: json-cas-e2e
-      ---
-      ```

-         ```bash
-         eval "$(cfg env)" && GITEA_TOKEN=$(cfg get GITEA_TOKEN)

+      CRITICAL: First, determine which mode you are in by scanning the task prompt.
+      Choose EXACTLY ONE mode — do NOT default to Mode A if Mode B applies.
+
+      **How to choose:**
+      - If the prompt contains ANY of these keywords: "PR #", "PR#", "pulls/", "继续修复", "continue", "review feedback", "existing branch", "fix/", or mentions a branch name → **Mode B**
+      - If the prompt was forwarded from tester with fix_spec → **Mode C**
+      - Otherwise → **Mode A**
+

       1. Read the issue and all comments from Gitea using `tea issues <number> -r <owner/repo>`
       2. Look for project conventions files (CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, .cursor/rules/) in the repo
       3. Assess whether the issue has enough information to produce a test spec
       4. If insufficient info: comment on the issue via `echo "..." | tea comment <number> -r <owner/repo>` (skip if you already commented), then output $status=insufficient_info

+      4. Look for project conventions files (CLAUDE.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, .cursor/rules/) in the repo

-# Sync README
-
-When updating README.md files in this monorepo, follow these conventions.
-
-## Scope
-
-- Root `README.md` — project overview and navigation hub
-- Per-package `packages/*/README.md` — each package self-contained
-
-## Root README Structure
-
-The root README should have these sections in order:
-
-1. **Title and one-liner** — content-addressed storage for JSON with schema validation
-2. **Overview** — 2-3 paragraphs explaining what it does and key concepts
-3. **Architecture** — dependency layer diagram (text-based)
-4. **Packages** — table with ALL packages from packages/ directory, columns: Package, Description, Type (cli/lib)
-5. **Quick Start** — install, build, basic usage
-6. **CLI Reference** — brief command list, detailed usage in cli README
-7. **Development** — pnpm install / build / check / test
-8. **Publishing** — `proman bump` + `proman publish`
-
-## Per-Package README Structure
-
-Each package README should have:
-
-1. **Title** — package name
-2. **One-line description** — matching package.json
-3. **Overview** — what it does, where it sits in the architecture, dependencies
-4. **Installation** — pnpm add (for libs) or "included as binary" (for cli)
-5. **API** (lib packages) — all exports from src/index.ts with type signatures, grouped by category, minimal usage examples
-6. **CLI Usage** (cli packages) — command reference with examples
-7. **Internal Structure** — brief src/ file organization
-8. **Configuration** (if applicable)
-
-## Execution Steps
-
-### Step 1: Gather current state
-For each package read:
-- package.json (name, version, description, dependencies, bin)
-- src/index.ts (public API exports)
-- Existing README.md (preserve hand-written content worth keeping)
-
-### Step 2: Update root README
-- Ensure ALL packages in packages/ directory are listed in the table
-- Update CLI command reference from actual --help output
-- Keep Quick Start examples valid
-
-### Step 3: Write/update each package README
-- Follow the per-package structure
-- API section MUST match actual src/index.ts exports — never invent
-- For cli packages: document CLI binary name, how it is invoked
-- For lib packages: document exported types and functions
-- Internal structure: list actual files in src/
-
-### Step 4: Verify
-- All relative links work
-- Package names match package.json
-- No references to removed/renamed packages
-- pnpm run build still passes
-
-## Guidelines
-
-- Only document what src/index.ts actually exports
-- Root README summarizes, package READMEs go into detail
-- Verify CLI examples against actual commands
-- Preserve existing good prose when updating
-- English for all README content

+- Migrate runtime from Bun to Node.js + pnpm.
+
+## 0.2.0 — 2026-06-02
 
 ### Breaking Changes
 
-- `Store` is now `{ cas: CasStore, var: VarStore, tag: TagStore }` — all sub-stores accessed via properties
-- `bootstrap(store)` and `putSchema(store, schema)` are now **synchronous** (were async)
-- `VariableStore` class removed from `@ocas/core` — SQLite implementation moved to `@ocas/fs`
-- `createVariableStore()` removed from `@ocas/core`
-- `openStoreAndVarStore()` removed — use `openStore()` returning unified `Store`
-- `RenderOptions.varStore` removed — templates resolved via `store.var` internally
-- `@ocas/core` has zero `bun:sqlite` imports — pure TypeScript
-- `ocas var tag` subcommand removed — use `ocas tag` / `ocas untag` instead
+- `ocas var tag` subcommand removed — use `ocas tag` / `ocas untag` instead.
 
 ### New Features
 
-- `CasStore`, `VarStore`, `TagStore` sub-store types
-- `TagStore` — first-class tags on any CAS node (not just variables)
-- Top-level `ocas tag <target> <tag>...` and `ocas untag <target> <tag>...` commands
-- `ocas get` and `ocas var get` now include tag info in output
-- `ocas list --tag` and `ocas var list --tag` filter support
-- `var-store-helpers.ts` — shared validation/history logic
-- `validation.ts` — shared `validateName()` exported from core
+- Top-level `ocas tag <target> <tag>...` and `ocas untag <target> <tag>...` commands.
+- `ocas get` and `ocas var get` now include tag info in output.
+- `ocas list --tag` and `ocas var list --tag` filter support.

+(`vars.jsonl`), and every tag attached to an in-closure target (`tags.jsonl`).

-# OCAS Skill Setup
-
-You are being asked to install or update the OCAS (Object Content Addressable Store) skill
-so that you know how to use the `ocas` CLI.
-
-## Steps
-
-1. **Check if OCAS CLI is installed:**
-   ```bash
-   ocas --help
-   ```
-   If not installed: `pnpm add -g @ocas/cli`
-
-2. **Clean up old versions of the skill** (if any exist):
-   - Look for any existing OCAS/ocas skill files in your skill directories
-     (e.g. `~/.hermes/skills/ocas/SKILL.md` or similar paths).
-   - If a skill exists, read its `version` from the YAML frontmatter.
-   - If the version matches the current CLI version (`ocas --version`), you're done — no update needed.
-   - If the version is older, **delete the old skill file** before proceeding.
-
-3. **Get the usage skill content:**
-   ```bash
-   ocas prompt usage
-   ```
-
-4. **Create a SKILL.md file** in your skill directory (e.g. `~/.hermes/skills/ocas/SKILL.md`).
-   The output of `ocas prompt usage` is the skill body WITHOUT frontmatter.
-   You must prepend the following YAML frontmatter:
-
-   ```yaml
-   ---
-   name: ocas
-   description: "Use when storing, retrieving, or managing typed JSON data with OCAS (Object Content Addressable Store). Covers CLI usage, variable management, templates, rendering, and pipe composition."
-   version: <VERSION>
-   author: OCAS
-   license: MIT
-   metadata:
-     hermes:
-       tags: [cas, storage, cli, json, schema, content-addressing]
-   ---
-   ```
-
-   Replace `<VERSION>` with the installed CLI version (from `ocas --version`).
-
-5. **Verify** the skill is loadable by your agent framework.
-
-## Notes
-
-- The skill content is bundled with the CLI and versioned with it — always use
-  `ocas prompt usage` to get the content matching your installed version.
-- Do NOT hand-edit the skill body. If the CLI is updated, re-run `ocas prompt setup`
-  and follow the steps again.
-- When upgrading, always delete the old skill first to avoid stale instructions.

+
+```bash
+ocas export <root>... -o <bundle.tar>           # write closure of roots to tar
+ocas export @myapp/config -o myapp.tar
+ocas export @myapp/config @myapp/users -o m.tar # multiple roots
+ocas import <bundle.tar>                        # import bundle (idempotent)

+ocas get <hash> --store <bundle.tar>            # read-only access into bundle
+```
+
+`export` walks refs **and** schema chains; the resulting tar contains every reachable
+CAS node (`cas/<hash>.bin`, CBOR), every variable whose value is in-closure, and every
+tag attached to an in-closure target. `import` is content-addressed (deduplicates
+existing nodes). `--scope @new` rewrites the leading `@scope` of imported variable
+names except `@ocas/*` builtins. `--store <bundle.tar>` opens a bundle as a read-only
+store for any inspection command; write commands (`put`, `tag`, `gc`, `import`,
+`var set`, …) refuse with `--store is read-only`.

+## Scenario A: Fresh Install
+
+### Step 0 — Environment pre-flight check
+
+Run ALL checks below BEFORE installing anything. If any check fails, fix it first — do NOT skip ahead.
+
+\`\`\`bash
+# 1. Node.js
+node --version   # need v20+
+# FIX: install via nvm (https://github.com/nvm-sh/nvm) or your OS package manager
+
+# 2. Package manager — pnpm (preferred) or npm
+pnpm --version || npm --version
+# FIX for pnpm: corepack enable pnpm   (Node 20+)
+#   or: npm install -g pnpm
+# If pnpm is not an option, npm works too — adjust install commands below
+
+# 3. Global bin directory is in PATH
+# For pnpm:
+pnpm bin -g       # prints the global bin directory
+# For npm:
+npm prefix -g     # global prefix; bin is <prefix>/bin
+# The directory printed above MUST be in your PATH.
+# Test: echo \\$PATH | tr ':' '\\n'
+# FIX: add the missing directory to your shell's startup file
+#   (e.g. ~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, ~/.profile, or fish config):
+#   export PATH="<global-bin-dir>:$PATH"
+\`\`\`
+
+**All checks must pass before continuing.** If you had to modify PATH, verify the change persists by opening a new shell or sourcing your shell config.
+
+### Step 1 — Install @ocas/cli
+
+\`\`\`bash
+# Using pnpm (preferred)
+pnpm add -g @ocas/cli
+
+# Using npm
+npm install -g @ocas/cli
+\`\`\`
+
+**After installing, verify that \`ocas\` is available in PATH:**
+
+\`\`\`bash
+ocas --version   # should print ${CLI_VERSION}
+\`\`\`
+
+If the command is not found, the global bin directory is not in the current shell's PATH. **You must fix this before continuing:**
+
+1. Find where the binary was installed:
+   \`\`\`bash
+   find ~/.local /usr/local -name ocas -type f 2>/dev/null
+   npm prefix -g    # global prefix — bin is <prefix>/bin
+   \`\`\`
+2. Add the directory to PATH permanently by appending to the user's shell config (e.g. \`~/.bashrc\`, \`~/.zshrc\`, \`~/.profile\`, or fish config):
+   \`\`\`bash
+   export PATH="<global-bin-dir>:$PATH"
+   \`\`\`
+3. Source the updated config or open a new shell, then re-verify the command works.
+
+### Step 2 — Verify version
+
+\`\`\`bash
+ocas --version   # should print ${CLI_VERSION}
+\`\`\`
+
+### Step 3 — Install the ocas skill
+
+Run the usage prompt and save it as a skill so your agent knows how to use ocas:
+
+\`\`\`bash
+ocas prompt usage
+\`\`\`
+
+The output is the skill body **without** frontmatter. Save it as a skill in your agent framework with the following YAML frontmatter prepended:
+
+\`\`\`yaml
+---

+author: OCAS
+license: MIT
+metadata:
+  hermes:
+    tags: [cas, storage, cli, json, schema, content-addressing]
+---
+\`\`\`
+
+Replace the \`version\` field with the installed CLI version (from \`ocas --version\`).
+
+**⚠ After saving the skill, start a new session** so the agent loads the updated skill content. Skills saved in the current session are not active until the next session.

+If \`ocas get\` returns \`"hello world"\`, the setup is working.
+
+## Scenario B: Upgrade from Previous Version
+
+### Step 1 — Update to latest
+
+\`\`\`bash
+# Using pnpm
+pnpm add -g @ocas/cli@latest
+
+# Using npm
+npm install -g @ocas/cli@latest
+\`\`\`
+
+### Step 2 — Verify version
+
+\`\`\`bash
+ocas --version   # should print ${CLI_VERSION}
+\`\`\`
+
+### Step 3 — Regenerate skill
+
+Skill content is bundled with the CLI — always regenerate after upgrading:
+
+\`\`\`bash
+ocas prompt usage   # → update skill "ocas"
+\`\`\`
+
+Update the \`version\` field in the skill frontmatter to match the new CLI version.
+
+**⚠ After updating the skill, start a new session** to load the new skill content.
+
+### Step 4 — Verify
+
+\`\`\`bash
+ocas put @ocas/string '"upgrade test"'
+ocas get <hash>
+\`\`\`
+
+## Available prompts
+
+\`\`\`bash
+ocas prompt list       # list available prompt names
+ocas prompt usage      # CLI usage guide (skill body)
+ocas prompt bootstrap  # this guide
+\`\`\`

 # @ocas/core
 
-## 0.2.0
+## 0.4.1 — 2026-06-07
+
+- Fix `gc` failing to preserve nodes referenced via `oneOf` — `collectRefs()` now traverses `oneOf` branches alongside existing `anyOf`/`allOf`/`if-then-else` handling.
+
+## 0.4.0 — 2026-06-07
+
+- New `computeClosure(store, roots)` — traverses references and schema chains to gather a complete CAS closure.
+- New `exportBundle()` / `importBundle()` / `loadBundleStore()` — produce and consume self-contained POSIX-tar bundles (`cas/*.bin` CBOR payloads, `vars.jsonl`, `tags.jsonl`).
+- New builtin output schemas: `@ocas/output/export`, `@ocas/output/import`.
+
+## 0.3.0 — 2026-06-03
+
+- No API changes. Coordinated version bump with `@ocas/fs` 0.3.0.
+
+## 0.2.2 — 2026-06-03
+
+- Lint and format fixes.
+
+## 0.2.1 — 2026-06-03
+
+- Migrate runtime from Bun to Node.js + pnpm.
+- Migrate test framework from `bun:test` to Vitest.
+- Extract `VariableStore` SQLite implementation to `@ocas/fs`.
+
+## 0.2.0 — 2026-06-02

-- `Store` is now `{ cas: CasStore, var: VarStore, tag: TagStore }` — all sub-stores accessed via properties
-- `bootstrap(store)` and `putSchema(store, schema)` are now **synchronous** (were async)
-- `VariableStore` class removed from `@ocas/core` — SQLite implementation moved to `@ocas/fs`
-- `createVariableStore()` removed from `@ocas/core`
-- `openStoreAndVarStore()` removed — use `openStore()` returning unified `Store`
-- `RenderOptions.varStore` removed — templates resolved via `store.var` internally
-- `@ocas/core` has zero `bun:sqlite` imports — pure TypeScript
-- `ocas var tag` subcommand removed — use `ocas tag` / `ocas untag` instead
+- `Store` is now `{ cas: CasStore, var: VarStore, tag: TagStore }` — all sub-stores accessed via properties.
+- `bootstrap(store)` and `putSchema(store, schema)` are now synchronous.
+- `VariableStore` class removed — SQLite implementation moved to `@ocas/fs`.
+- `createVariableStore()` removed.
+- Zero `bun:sqlite` imports — pure TypeScript.
 
 ### New Features
 
-- `CasStore`, `VarStore`, `TagStore` sub-store types
-- `TagStore` — first-class tags on any CAS node (not just variables)
-- Top-level `ocas tag <target> <tag>...` and `ocas untag <target> <tag>...` commands
-- `ocas get` and `ocas var get` now include tag info in output
-- `ocas list --tag` and `ocas var list --tag` filter support
-- `var-store-helpers.ts` — shared validation/history logic
-- `validation.ts` — shared `validateName()` exported from core
+- `CasStore`, `VarStore`, `TagStore` sub-store types.
+- `validation.ts` — shared `validateName()` exported from core.

+  vars: Variable[];
+  tags: Map<Hash, Tag[]>;
+};
+function computeClosure(store: Store, roots: Hash[]): ClosureResult;

+- `computeClosure` — walks `cas_ref` edges and schema chains from each root,
+  also gathering every `Variable` whose `value` lands in the closure and every
+  `Tag` attached to an in-closure target.
+- `exportBundle` — writes a self-contained POSIX-tar archive containing
+  `cas/<hash>.bin` (CBOR-encoded payloads), `vars.jsonl`, and `tags.jsonl`.
+- `importBundle` — content-addressed merge into `target`. Idempotent:
+  re-importing the same bundle yields zero `imported` and zero `created`.
+  `options.scope` rewrites the leading `@scope/` of every imported variable
+  name except `@ocas/*` builtins.
+- `loadBundleStore` — convenience that returns an in-memory `Store` populated
+  from a bundle (for read-only inspection without touching the persistent store).

 # @ocas/fs
 
+## 0.4.0 — 2026-06-07
+
+- Lazy loading: `FsStore` scans only filenames in `nodes/` at startup (no CBOR decoding), reads each node from disk on first `get()`. Startup is O(filenames) instead of O(decoded-bytes).
+- Move CAS node files from store root into `nodes/` subdirectory. Pre-existing flat-layout stores are auto-migrated on first open.
+
 ## 0.3.0 — 2026-06-03
 
-- Migrate from better-sqlite3 to built-in node:sqlite — zero native addon dependencies, no more NODE_MODULE_VERSION mismatch across Node upgrades.
+- Migrate from `better-sqlite3` to built-in `node:sqlite` — zero native addon dependencies.
 
-## 0.2.0
+## 0.2.2 — 2026-06-03
+
+- Lint and format fixes.
+
+## 0.2.1 — 2026-06-03
+
+- Migrate var/tag store from JSONL to `better-sqlite3`.
+- `openStore()` now returns unified `Store` with `cas`, `var`, `tag` sub-stores.
+- Migrate runtime from Bun to Node.js + pnpm.
+
+## 0.2.0 — 2026-06-02
 
 ### Breaking Changes
 
-- `Store` is now `{ cas: CasStore, var: VarStore, tag: TagStore }` — all sub-stores accessed via properties
-- `bootstrap(store)` and `putSchema(store, schema)` are now **synchronous** (were async)
-- `VariableStore` class removed from `@ocas/core` — SQLite implementation moved to `@ocas/fs`
-- `createVariableStore()` removed from `@ocas/core`
-- `openStoreAndVarStore()` removed — use `openStore()` returning unified `Store`
-- `RenderOptions.varStore` removed — templates resolved via `store.var` internally
-- `@ocas/core` has zero `bun:sqlite` imports — pure TypeScript
-- `ocas var tag` subcommand removed — use `ocas tag` / `ocas untag` instead
+- `openStoreAndVarStore()` removed — use `openStore()` returning unified `Store`.
+- `RenderOptions.varStore` removed — templates resolved via `store.var` internally.
 
 ### New Features
 
-- `CasStore`, `VarStore`, `TagStore` sub-store types
-- `TagStore` — first-class tags on any CAS node (not just variables)
-- Top-level `ocas tag <target> <tag>...` and `ocas untag <target> <tag>...` commands
-- `ocas get` and `ocas var get` now include tag info in output
-- `ocas list --tag` and `ocas var list --tag` filter support
-- `var-store-helpers.ts` — shared validation/history logic
-- `validation.ts` — shared `validateName()` exported from core
+- SQLite-backed `VarStore` and `TagStore` implementations.
+- `TagStore` — first-class tags on any CAS node.
+- `var-store-helpers.ts` — shared validation/history logic.
