SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Starting substantive work in a repository without knowing what has already been decided leads to reworked solutions and contradicted conventions. This Skill assembles an orientation briefing of prior decisions, patterns, and conventions from the Claudron knowledge vault and harness memory before you begin. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Two-tier recall: Renders project-tier notes (most recent) and fleet-tier notes (relevance-ranked against your query) via claudron recall, with vault conventions shown uncapped. - Graceful fallback: When the Claudron engine or vault is unavailable, it scans frozen INDEX.md files under the docs root and says so explicitly. - Harness memory re-read: Re-reads the project's live MEMORY.md on every recall, catching mid-session updates the session-start snapshot missed. - Use Case: Before refactoring a service, run recall with query terms like "auth migration" to surface prior decisions, in-flight plans, and conventions that constrain the work. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to recall what this project and the fleet already know about your current task before starting work.

FAQPage Schema
How do I recall prior project decisions before starting work?

Invoke the recall skill with optional query terms, for example recall with "auth migration". It runs claudron recall to render project-tier notes by recency and fleet-tier notes by relevance, plus vault conventions and harness memory.

What is the difference between recall, lookup, and capture?

Recall assembles an orientation briefing of prior knowledge before work begins. Use claudron lookup to search the vault by a specific term, and capture to save new knowledge after work completes. Recall is read-only and never writes.

Does recall work without the Claudron CLI installed?

Yes, it falls back to scanning frozen INDEX.md files under the docs root, covering active plans, knowledge, and decisions indexes. The fallback is announced explicitly and offers no new capabilities beyond the raw-tree scan.

Why are some notes missing from my recall results?

Notes with terminal status (stale, superseded, completed, archived) are filtered out by default on both the engine and fallback paths. Pass --include-stale to include them, and use --limit to raise the per-tier cap of 5 notes.

Can recall show full note contents instead of summaries?

Yes, pass --full to read and summarize the body of the top-matching note in each tier, resolved against the vault root from the detection pre-flight. Without it, each note renders as a one-line title, type, and summary.
