SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Traverse the personal note tree in .codex/notes to fetch high-signal context before non-trivial work. Use when starting implementation, debugging, refactoring, architecture changes, or risk analysis; map the task to note branches, read relevant leaf notes, validate critical claims against code, and surface contradictions.

Core Features & Use Cases

Query notes as a hierarchy of small topic files, not as monolithic logs.
Map tasks to note branches and read relevant leaf notes before implementation, debugging, or design changes.
Validate critical claims against code and surface contradictions to guide safer decisions.

Quick Start

Open .codex/notes/INDEX.md, map the task to 1-3 branches, and read relevant leaf notes before proceeding.

FAQPage Schema

How do I fetch architecture context from project notes before starting implementation?▼

To fetch architecture context, map your task to 1-3 relevant branches in your project notes hierarchy, read the leaf notes, and validate critical claims against the actual code to guide safer implementation decisions.

What is the best way to use personal notes for debugging and risk analysis?▼

The best way to use personal notes for debugging is querying them as a hierarchy of small topic files rather than monolithic logs, mapping the issue to note branches, and surfacing any contradictions with the code for remediation.

How do I structure code review notes to surface high-signal context?▼

Structure code review notes as a hierarchy of small topic files within your project directory, allowing you to map specific review tasks to note branches and read relevant leaf notes to extract high-signal context.

Do I need an INDEX.md file to query project notes for refactoring tasks?▼

Yes, you need an INDEX.md file to map refactoring tasks to 1-3 note branches and read the relevant leaf notes before proceeding with any architecture changes or code modifications.

Why does validating notes against code help during architecture changes?▼

Validating notes against code during architecture changes ensures that critical claims are accurate, allowing you to surface contradictions and guide safer, risk-aware decisions before non-trivial implementation work.

Can I use monolithic logs instead of hierarchical topic files for context retrieval?▼

No, for effective context retrieval you should query notes as a hierarchy of small topic files, not monolithic logs, ensuring you can map tasks to specific note branches and read relevant leaf notes.
