How do I list all existing technical notes for a specific repository?

You can list all existing technical notes for a repository to view their titles for quick scanning. The skill manages note paths locally, allowing you to quickly locate and review prior debugging insights or research outcomes.

Does this note management approach require a specific git remote configuration?

Yes, this note management approach requires a git-tracked repository. The skill derives the organization and repository names from your configured git remote to automatically store notes under the correct local path.

Can I update existing discovery notes without losing prior context?

Yes, you can update existing discovery notes while preserving prior context. The skill uses a reusable discovery-note template to append new findings, ensuring system behaviors and debugging insights remain structurally intact.

What format should slugs follow when creating repository notes?

Slugs for repository notes must follow kebab-case formatting. The skill validates kebab-case slugs to ensure consistent notes-management and proper path derivation across your git-tracked repositories.
