SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill prevents the loss of crucial information during long AI sessions by providing a persistent memo system that survives session compaction.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persistent Memos: Save important notes, context, and rules that will be available across sessions.
  • Context Management: Organize notes into 'Priority Context' (always loaded), 'Working Memory' (temporary), and 'MANUAL' (permanent).
  • Use Case: After discovering a critical project rule or a complex bug fix, use /note --manual to save it permanently, ensuring it's always accessible for future reference.

Quick Start

Add the current authentication method to your permanent notes by typing /note --manual The current auth method is NextAuth with Prisma adapter.

FAQPage Schema
How do I save critical context to survive session compaction?

Persistent memos prevent context loss during session compaction by saving critical notes to a `.claude/notepad.md` file. This system organizes information into Priority Context, Working Memory, and MANUAL sections, ensuring essential project details remain accessible across long sessions.

What is the best way to manage persistent knowledge base notes across AI sessions?

Managing a persistent knowledge base across sessions is achieved by writing timestamped memos to a local notepad file. The system provides automatic pruning for temporary working memory and manual permanent storage for essential project rules.

How do I permanently save project rules and bug fixes for future reference?

To permanently save project rules and bug fixes, use the `/note --manual` command to write entries to the MANUAL section. This ensures critical context is always accessible and protected from automatic pruning in future sessions.

Does this memo system support automatic pruning of working memory?

Yes, the memo system supports automatic pruning of working memory. It distinguishes between temporary Working Memory, which is pruned automatically, and Priority Context or MANUAL notes, which are preserved to maintain essential project details.

When do I need persistent session management for my development context?

You need persistent session management when working through long AI interactions where crucial information like complex bug fixes or authentication methods might be lost. It prevents information loss by saving this context to a durable notepad file.
