SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Flow Note captures corrections and lessons directly into the FLOW state file to preserve learnings across sessions and team discussions, preventing knowledge loss and repeated misunderstandings.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Capture corrections, clarifications, and learnings into the FLOW state file for future reference.
  • Serve as a persistent, searchable reference for Claude Code FLOW-enabled projects and multi-engineer collaboration.
  • Typical use case: after a planning or review session, store a key takeaway like "Always validate dependencies before merging" so it is recalled in subsequent work.

Quick Start

Type /flow:flow-note <your note> to capture a learning into the FLOW state and continue immediately.

FAQPage Schema
How do I capture design corrections during a collaborative development session without interrupting my workflow?

You can capture design corrections without interrupting your workflow by appending notes directly into a local state file. This preserves learnings across team discussions and prevents knowledge loss during collaborative development sessions.

What is a FLOW state file and when do I need it for state management?

A FLOW state file is a local JSON file used to preserve learnings and corrections across development sessions. You need it when working in multi-engineer collaboration environments where knowledge must be stored for future reference without disruption.

How do I store lessons learned in a branch-specific state file for future reference?

You store lessons by invoking a note-capture command that appends your takeaway to the branch state file. This allows subsequent work on that branch to recall the stored learnings and apply them immediately.

Can I use flow-note state management across multiple worktrees and engineers?

Yes, this state management approach is specifically designed for collaborative development sessions across multiple engineers and worktrees. It ensures that learnings are preserved in the local state file for the entire team.

What is the best way to prevent knowledge loss during multi-engineer development sessions?

The best way to prevent knowledge loss is to capture corrections and clarifications into a persistent local state file. This creates a searchable reference for future sessions, stopping repeated misunderstandings among the team.

Do I need a specific local directory structure to append notes to the FLOW state?

Yes, you need access to a local state file located at a specific branch path within a flow-states directory. This file structure is required to append notes without disrupting your current development session.
