+# Changelog: Requirements Persistence Feature
+
+## Summary
+
+Enhanced the accumulative autonomous mode (`--auto` / default mode) to automatically persist requirements to a local `.g3/requirements.md` file.
+
+## Changes Made
+
+### 1. Core Implementation (`crates/g3-cli/src/lib.rs`)
+
+#### New Functions Added:
+
+- **`ensure_g3_dir(workspace_dir: &Path) -> Result<PathBuf>`**
+  - Creates `.g3` directory in the workspace if it doesn't exist
+  - Returns the path to the `.g3` directory
+
+- **`load_existing_requirements(workspace_dir: &Path) -> Result<Vec<String>>`**
+  - Loads requirements from `.g3/requirements.md` if the file exists
+  - Parses numbered requirements (format: `1. requirement text`)
+  - Returns empty vector if file doesn't exist
+
+- **`save_requirements(workspace_dir: &Path, requirements: &[String]) -> Result<()>`**
+  - Saves accumulated requirements to `.g3/requirements.md`
+  - Creates `.g3` directory if needed
+  - Formats as markdown with numbered list
+
+#### Modified Functions:
+
+- **`run_accumulative_mode()`**
+  - Now loads existing requirements on startup
+  - Displays loaded requirements to user
+  - Initializes turn number based on existing requirements count
+  - Saves requirements after each new requirement is added
+  - Shows save confirmation message
+  - Updated `/requirements` command to show file location
+
+### 2. Version Control (`.gitignore`)
+
+- Added `.g3/` directory to `.gitignore`
+- Prevents accidental commit of local requirements
+- Users can opt-in to version control if desired
+
+### 3. Documentation
+
+#### New Documentation:
+
+- **`docs/REQUIREMENTS_PERSISTENCE.md`**
+  - Comprehensive guide to the requirements persistence feature
+  - Usage examples and commands
+  - File format specification
+  - Use cases and best practices
+  - Comparison with traditional autonomous mode
+
+#### Updated Documentation:
+
+- **`README.md`**
+  - Added requirements persistence section to "Getting Started"
+  - Highlighted key benefits (resume, review, share)
+  - Added example showing `.g3/requirements.md` usage
+
+### 4. Testing
+
+- **`test_requirements.sh`**
+  - Simple test script for manual verification
+  - Creates test directory and provides instructions
+
+## User-Facing Changes
+
+### New Behavior
+
+1. **Automatic Saving**
+   - Every requirement entered is immediately saved to `.g3/requirements.md`
+   - User sees confirmation: `💾 Saved to .g3/requirements.md`
+
+2. **Automatic Loading**
+   - On startup, G3 checks for existing `.g3/requirements.md`
+   - If found, loads and displays requirements
+   - Shows: `📂 Loaded N existing requirement(s) from .g3/requirements.md`
+
+3. **Enhanced `/requirements` Command**
+   - Now shows file location in output
+   - Format: `📋 Accumulated Requirements (saved to .g3/requirements.md):`
+
+4. **Session Resumability**
+   - Users can exit and resume work later
+   - Requirements persist across sessions
+   - Turn numbering continues from previous session
+
+### File Structure
+
+```
+my-project/
+├── .g3/
+│   └── requirements.md    # NEW: Accumulated requirements
+├── logs/                  # Existing: Session logs
+└── ... (project files)
+```
+
+### Requirements File Format
+
+```markdown
+# Project Requirements
+
+1. First requirement
+2. Second requirement
+3. Third requirement
+```
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **Persistence**: No data loss if G3 crashes or is interrupted
+2. **Transparency**: Always know what G3 is working on
+3. **Resumability**: Pick up where you left off
+4. **Documentation**: Requirements serve as project documentation
+5. **Collaboration**: Share requirements with team members
+6. **Auditability**: Track what was requested and when
+
+## Backward Compatibility
+
+- ✅ Fully backward compatible
+- ✅ No breaking changes to existing functionality
+- ✅ Works seamlessly with existing projects
+- ✅ Graceful handling of missing `.g3` directory
+- ✅ Error handling for file I/O issues
+
+## Error Handling
+
+- If `.g3/requirements.md` cannot be read: Shows warning, continues with empty requirements
+- If `.g3/requirements.md` cannot be written: Shows warning, continues with in-memory requirements
+- Non-blocking errors don't interrupt workflow
+
+## Testing Checklist
+
+- [x] Build succeeds without errors
+- [ ] Manual test: Create new requirements in fresh directory
+- [ ] Manual test: Resume session with existing requirements
+- [ ] Manual test: `/requirements` command shows file location
+- [ ] Manual test: Requirements file format is correct
+- [ ] Manual test: Error handling for permission issues
+- [ ] Manual test: `.g3` directory is created automatically
+- [ ] Manual test: `.g3` directory is ignored by git
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+Potential improvements for future versions:
+
+1. Requirement status tracking (pending, in-progress, completed)
+2. Requirement dependencies and ordering
+3. Requirement templates and snippets
+4. Integration with issue trackers
+5. Requirement validation and linting
+6. Export to other formats (JSON, YAML, etc.)
+7. Requirement search and filtering
+8. Requirement history and versioning
+
+## Migration Guide
+
+No migration needed! The feature works automatically:
+
+1. Update to the new version
+2. Run `g3` in any directory
+3. Enter requirements as usual
+4. Requirements are automatically saved to `.g3/requirements.md`

+# Requirements Persistence in Accumulative Mode
+
+## Overview
+
+In accumulative autonomous mode (`--auto` or default mode), G3 now automatically persists your requirements to a local `.g3/requirements.md` file. This provides several benefits:
+
+1. **Persistence across sessions**: Your requirements are saved and can be resumed later
+2. **Version control friendly**: Requirements are stored in a readable markdown format
+3. **Easy review**: You can view and edit requirements directly in the file
+4. **Transparency**: Always know what G3 is working on
+
+## How It Works
+
+### Automatic Saving
+
+When you run G3 in accumulative mode:
+
+```bash
+g3
+```
+
+Each requirement you enter is automatically:
+1. Added to the accumulated requirements list
+2. Saved to `.g3/requirements.md` in your workspace
+3. Used for the autonomous implementation run
+
+### File Format
+
+The `.g3/requirements.md` file uses a simple numbered list format:
+
+```markdown
+# Project Requirements
+
+1. Create a simple web server in Python with Flask
+2. Add a /health endpoint that returns JSON
+3. Add logging for all requests
+```
+
+### Loading Existing Requirements
+
+When you start G3 in a directory that already has a `.g3/requirements.md` file, it will:
+
+1. Automatically load the existing requirements
+2. Display them on startup
+3. Continue numbering from where you left off
+
+Example output:
+
+```
+📂 Loaded 3 existing requirement(s) from .g3/requirements.md
+
+   1. Create a simple web server in Python with Flask
+   2. Add a /health endpoint that returns JSON
+   3. Add logging for all requests
+
+============================================================
+📝 Turn 4 - What's next? (add more requirements or refinements)
+============================================================
+requirement> 
+```
+
+## Commands
+
+### View Requirements
+
+Use the `/requirements` command to view all accumulated requirements:
+
+```
+requirement> /requirements
+
+📋 Accumulated Requirements (saved to .g3/requirements.md):
+
+   1. Create a simple web server in Python with Flask
+   2. Add a /health endpoint that returns JSON
+   3. Add logging for all requests
+```
+
+### Other Commands
+
+- `/help` - Show all available commands
+- `/chat` - Switch to interactive chat mode (preserves requirements context)
+- `exit` or `quit` - Exit the session
+
+## File Location
+
+The requirements file is stored at:
+
+```
+<workspace>/.g3/requirements.md
+```
+
+Where `<workspace>` is your current working directory.
+
+## Version Control
+
+The `.g3/` directory is automatically added to `.gitignore`, so your requirements won't be committed to version control by default. If you want to track requirements in git, you can:
+
+1. Remove `.g3/` from `.gitignore`
+2. Commit the `.g3/requirements.md` file
+
+This can be useful for:
+- Sharing requirements with team members
+- Tracking requirement evolution over time
+- Documenting project goals
+
+## Manual Editing
+
+You can manually edit `.g3/requirements.md` if needed. G3 will parse the file and load any numbered requirements (format: `1. requirement text`).
+
+**Note**: Make sure to maintain the numbered list format for proper parsing.
+
+## Error Handling
+
+If G3 cannot save or load requirements, it will:
+
+1. Display a warning message
+2. Continue operating with in-memory requirements
+3. Not interrupt your workflow
+
+Example:
+
+```
+⚠️  Warning: Could not save requirements to .g3/requirements.md: Permission denied
+```
+
+## Use Cases
+
+### Resuming Work
+
+```bash
+# Day 1: Start a project
+cd my-project
+g3
+requirement> Create a REST API with user authentication
+# ... work happens ...
+exit
+
+# Day 2: Resume work
+cd my-project
+g3
+# G3 automatically loads previous requirements
+requirement> Add password reset functionality
+```
+
+### Reviewing Progress
+
+```bash
+# Check what you've asked G3 to build
+cat .g3/requirements.md
+
+# Or use the command within G3
+requirement> /requirements
+```
+
+### Sharing Requirements
+
+```bash
+# Share requirements with a team member
+cp .g3/requirements.md requirements-backup.md
+# Or commit to version control
+git add .g3/requirements.md
+git commit -m "Add project requirements"
+```
+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Functions
+
+- `ensure_g3_dir()` - Creates `.g3` directory if it doesn't exist
+- `load_existing_requirements()` - Loads requirements from `.g3/requirements.md`
+- `save_requirements()` - Saves requirements to `.g3/requirements.md`
+
+### File Structure
+
+```
+my-project/
+├── .g3/
+│   └── requirements.md    # Accumulated requirements
+├── logs/                  # Session logs (existing)
+└── ... (your project files)
+```
+
+## Benefits
+
+1. **No data loss**: Requirements are persisted even if G3 crashes or is interrupted
+2. **Transparency**: Always know what G3 is working on
+3. **Resumability**: Pick up where you left off in any session
+4. **Documentation**: Requirements serve as project documentation
+5. **Collaboration**: Share requirements with team members
+6. **Auditability**: Track what was requested and when
+
+## Comparison with Traditional Autonomous Mode
+
+| Feature | Accumulative Mode | Traditional `--autonomous` |
+|---------|------------------|---------------------------|
+| Requirements file | `.g3/requirements.md` | `requirements.md` (root) |
+| Auto-save | ✅ Yes | ❌ No (manual edit) |
+| Interactive | ✅ Yes | ❌ No |
+| Incremental | ✅ Yes | ❌ No (one-shot) |
+| Resume support | ✅ Yes | ⚠️ Manual |
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+Potential future improvements:
+
+- Requirement status tracking (pending, in-progress, completed)
+- Requirement dependencies and ordering
+- Requirement templates and snippets
+- Integration with issue trackers
+- Requirement validation and linting
