SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Working conventions for agents that separate task context, drafts, and research cache into the .notes/.agents/ directory, providing a clear structure and lifecycle guidance.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Defines a project-local workspace pattern for muse (task context, progress, threads), sage (research cache), archivist (context visibility), and pyre lifecycle.
  • Specifies directory structure and file conventions for task contexts, progress tracking, drafts, and archiving, ensuring consistent collaboration across agents.
  • Supports integration patterns for task setup, progress updates, research caching, and cleanups, enabling reliable task execution and knowledge retention.

Quick Start

Create and adopt the .notes/.agents/ workspace structure in your project to start recording task context, progress, and research findings.

FAQPage Schema
How do I standardize ephemeral notes and agent workspaces for task-based workflows?

To standardize agent workspaces, you can enforce a structured directory layout under .notes/.agents/ with defined file types like context.md, progress.md, and drafts/ to manage working state and research findings.

What is the best way to organize task context and drafts for AI agents?

Organizing task context and drafts is best achieved by adopting a project-local notes framework that separates context, progress, threads, and research cache into specific markdown files within a centralized .notes/.agents/ directory.

How does the .notes/.agents directory structure manage the agent task lifecycle?

The .notes/.agents directory manages the agent task lifecycle by providing structured file conventions for task setup, progress tracking, research caching, and cleanups, including lifecycle guidance for task completion and archive management.

Can I use a centralized notes framework to cache research findings across different agents?

Yes, you can use a centralized notes framework to cache research findings across agents. The structure supports task-based workflows across multiple components, ensuring consistent collaboration and reliable knowledge retention.

What file types are defined for tracking progress and sources in a project-local workspace?

Defined file types for tracking progress and sources in a project-local workspace include context.md, progress.md, threads.md, findings.md, sources.md, and a drafts/ directory for working state.
