SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

The Maintain skill automates routine workspace health checks, index maintenance, memory housekeeping, and archival tasks to keep your knowledge graph, tasks, and references accurate with minimal manual effort.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Health mode: validate indexes, wikilinks, and frontmatter consistency across memory and reference data.
  • Sync and rebuild: batch-process task synchronization, memory gap detection, and index regeneration for a clean, up-to-date workspace.
  • Inbox processing: batch-processing pending items with parallel sub-agents to extract tasks and memories while preserving data integrity.

Quick Start

Trigger a maintenance cycle with /maintain and review the housekeeping report for any flagged issues.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate workspace health checks and maintenance for a memory graph?

Automate workspace health checks by validating indexes, wikilinks, and frontmatter consistency across memory and reference data. Trigger a maintenance cycle to generate a housekeeping report flagging issues like broken links or outdated tasks automatically.

What is the best way to batch process a pending inbox of tasks and memories?

Batch process a pending inbox using parallel sub-agents to extract tasks and memories while preserving data integrity. This approach handles pending items efficiently, ensuring accurate synchronization without manual sorting and tagging.

Can I safely rebuild indexes and detect memory gaps in a complex workspace?

You can safely rebuild indexes and detect memory gaps by running batch-process task synchronization and index regeneration. The maintenance workflow applies deterministic operations and safe auto-fixes to keep complex workspaces up to date.

Does workspace maintenance require explicit user confirmation for high-cost actions?

Workspace maintenance requires explicit user confirmation for high-cost actions like archival tasks. Deterministic operations and safe auto-fixes run automatically, but governance and complex workflows prompt for confirmation before executing destructive changes.

When do I need to run memory housekeeping and archival tasks?

Run memory housekeeping and archival tasks during daily maintenance, onboarding, or governance cycles to keep knowledge graphs and references accurate. Triggering maintenance regularly prevents index bloat and ensures task synchronization remains clean.
