SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Long-running projects accumulate session logs and episodic notes that never get distilled into lasting knowledge, so hard-won decisions and gotchas get buried and forgotten across sessions. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Episodic-to-Semantic Promotion: Sweeps SESSION-LOG.md and EPISODIC-INDEX.md entries since the last consolidation marker and applies a 4-bar gate (SETTLED, NON-OBVIOUS, NOT A RULE, DURABLE) before promoting facts into KNOWLEDGE.md. - Manual and Scheduled Modes: Run interactively with explicit approval grammar (approve, deny, re-route, edit), or run unattended via cron to write proposals into a CONSOLIDATION-INBOX.md for later review. - Dedup and Routing: Routes approved facts through /remember's dedup logic into local or global KNOWLEDGE.md, sends open work to TODOS.md, and suggests rules for CLAUDE.md. - Use Case: After two weeks of sessions on a project, run /consolidate to review all logged decisions and gotchas, approve the durable ones, and have them merged into KNOWLEDGE.md without duplicates. ## Quick Start Run /consolidate in your project to review and approve durable facts from recent session logs for promotion into KNOWLEDGE.md.

FAQPage Schema
How do I consolidate session logs into long-term project knowledge?▼

Run /consolidate in a live session. It sweeps SESSION-LOG.md and EPISODIC-INDEX.md entries newer than the consolidation marker, applies the 4-bar promotion gate, and presents numbered candidates you approve, deny, re-route, or edit before anything is written to KNOWLEDGE.md.

What is the difference between /consolidate and /checkpoint Step 7?▼

/checkpoint Step 7 reviews only the current session's decisions and gotchas automatically at session end. /consolidate covers all sessions since the last consolidation marker, runs manually or on a schedule, and tracks progress with a per-project timestamp file.

Can consolidation run unattended on a schedule?▼

Yes, via /schedule or system cron, but not /loop. Scheduled runs write proposals to .memory/CONSOLIDATION-INBOX.md instead of KNOWLEDGE.md, and the marker only advances after a live session processes the inbox.

Does /consolidate write to KNOWLEDGE.md automatically?▼

No, it never auto-writes. Every candidate requires explicit approval using the accept grammar (a, d, item numbers, r1 global, e1 new text), and approved entries pass through /remember's dedup check before being merged.

What happens to facts that fail the promotion gate?▼

Open work failing the SETTLED test is appended to TODOS.md with a rejection note. Normative instructions failing NOT A RULE are suggested for CLAUDE.md without automatic writes. Other failures are dropped silently.
