 - Skip lore-generated files in git extraction
 
 Add a frozenset of known lore output files and a helper `_is_lore_only_commit(commit)` that detects commits touching only those files. Skip such commits in git extraction to avoid noise from lore export/auto-generated updates. Also include a minor CHRONICLE.md update. _(trust: low 50)_
+- Validate and auto-repair identity on startup
+
+Add validation and repair for the stored identity. Introduces is_valid_uuid() in config.py and ensure_identity() in store.py to detect missing or malformed identity IDs, regenerate a new UUID (and a name only if absent), persist the fix, and return (was_repaired, identity). Update cli._require_root to call ensure_identity() and notify the user if the identity was regenerated. This ensures the store always has a valid identity before running commands. _(trust: low 50)_
