FAQPage Schema
How do I log raw actions and touched files automatically after completing a task?

To log raw actions automatically, this Skill fires after every completed TODO item within a task orchestration workflow, recording exactly what was done and which files were touched. It appends these details to a daily session log for reliable audit trails.

Can I create an ad-hoc audit trail checkpoint manually?

Yes, you can create an ad-hoc audit trail checkpoint by invoking the /stenographer command manually. This generates a raw action log and appends a Stenographer Record section to today's session log file.

Where are task logging session records stored?

Task logging session records are stored as Markdown files at quality_reports/session_logs/YYYY-MM-DD_description.md. The logger creates today's session log and appends a detailed Stenographer Record section to it.

Do I need an orchestrator protocol to use automated task logging?

You do not need an orchestrator protocol to use task logging. While the logger is triggered autonomously by the orchestrator protocol after completed TODO items, it can also be called manually via the /stenographer command for standalone use.

Why use an autonomous action logger instead of manual notes for debugging?

An autonomous action logger provides a reliable audit trail by firing automatically after task completion, preventing missed records common with manual notes. It consistently captures exactly what was done and which files were touched for accurate debugging.
