Run this with the search words on the line between the markers, then answer from its output. Read the archive file it names only if the digest lacks a detail you need. The quoted heredoc keeps the words away from the shell.
```bash
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/hooks/ghosted.js" recall "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}" <<'GHOSTED_WORDS'
$ARGUMENTS
