SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents lost context and “I was never told” disputes by maintaining an append-only, dated communication record for each case.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Append-only client communication logging: Record direction, medium, participants, substantive summary, action items, and any follow-up due dates.
  • Case-scoped retrieval and reporting: Read the most recent entries, generate a one-paragraph condensed summary, and surface patterns that need supervision.
  • Clinical workflow integration: Supports handing off with /semester-handoff and offers deadline capture when communications establish time-sensitive obligations.
