Session: joined soul.demarkus.io, bound this repo, bootstrapped workspace.

## Done

- Bound /Users/fritz/latebit/memoryleaderboard to remote soul `soul` (mark://soul.demarkus.io); registered project-scope MCP server in .mcp.json.
- Published /memoryleaderboard/index.md hub; linked it from root /index.md Active Plans bullet.

## Gotchas

- `demarkus-plugin registry soul-join` arg parser: flags must precede host (`soul-join --bind DIR host`); documented order (`host --bind DIR`) prints usage and fails.
- Re-joining an already-joined soul without `--token` clears the token-file column in ~/.demarkus/souls (sets `-`); re-run with the existing token to restore.
- MCP server added mid-session is not loadable via ToolSearch; needs session restart. Workaround: drive `demarkus-plugin mcp-serve --soul <slug>` over stdio JSON-RPC (scratchpad mcpcall.sh); mark_publish requires `body` and `expected_version` (0 for create).
