System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This history tool helps you quickly locate and understand past session context across squirrels, logs, and stash to explain decisions and outcomes.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Search past session context: query .alive/_squirrels/*.yaml (session metadata, stash, recovery state) to locate relevant walnut histories.
  • Review decisions and narratives: read _kernel/log.md for decisions, narratives, and signed entries.
  • Inspect stash for context items: examine .alive/stash.json to see un-routed items from sessions.
  • Filters and scope: filter results by walnut, topic, person, or timeframe to focus the view.
  • Use cases: audit a walnut’s history, trace how a topic evolved across sessions, or summarize decisions over a date range.

Quick Start

Ask ALIVE to show recent session history for a walnut by date or topic.
