SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Capture research observations into the AGET knowledge base without committing specs, preserving vocabulary candidates, research proposals, web findings, patterns, or observations mid-session for later review.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Capture and categorize signals during sessions (vocabulary terms, research questions, web findings, patterns, gaps) into session files or scratch notes.
  • Supports autonomous and time-budget modes to balance depth of capture with session duration.
  • Enables traceability by tagging signals with types and ensuring alignment with wind-down processes.

Quick Start

Use aget-capture-observation during a session to capture and categorize signals into the AGET KB.

FAQPage Schema
How do I capture research observations mid-session without committing specs?

Capture research observations by categorizing signals like vocabulary terms, research questions, and web findings into the AGET knowledge base on the fly. It appends to existing session files or creates timestamped notes, preserving data without committing specs.

What is the best way to organize vocabulary candidates and research questions during a session?

Organize vocabulary candidates and research questions using autonomous or time-budget capture modes that tag signals by type. This ensures traceability and aligns with wind-down processes before appending findings to session files.

How does time-budget mode balance capture depth with session duration?

Time-budget mode balances capture depth by limiting observation recording to a set duration. It categorizes patterns and gaps into session files or scratch notes, ensuring efficient knowledge base updates without extending the session indefinitely.

Do I need YAML frontmatter to record web findings and patterns into the knowledge base?

Yes, YAML frontmatter containing name and description fields is required to record web findings and patterns. This frontmatter ensures traceability when the Skill appends observations to existing session files or creates new timestamped notes.

Can I append new observations to an existing session file without creating duplicates?

Yes, you can append new observations to an existing session file. The Skill detects existing session files and appends categorized signals directly, or it creates new timestamped notes when no matching session file is found.

When should I not use autonomous mode for capturing research signals?

Avoid autonomous mode when your session has strict time constraints. In these cases, time-budget mode is preferable for capturing vocabulary candidates and findings, as it limits capture depth to fit the available session duration.
