This is essentially a project journal system that creates dated markdown files in .archive/ whenever you finish something worth remembering. It shines during deployment troubleshooting or when you hit a bug you swear you've fixed before. The MEMORY.md index acts as a table of contents across all your archived sessions, organized by category (infrastructure, debugging, features, etc.). The workflow is simple: write what you did, tag it, update the index, then grep through it later when you need to remember how you solved that ECS networking issue three months ago. Keeps everything local and out of git. Think of it as institutionalizing the scattered notes you'd otherwise lose between sessions.

Archive Skill

Capture, index, and reuse project knowledge across sessions.

When to Archive

  • After completing a significant task (deploy, migration, major feature)
  • After resolving a tricky debugging session
  • When the user says "archive this"
  • After any multi-step process with learnings worth preserving

When to Consult Archives

  • Before debugging infrastructure, deploy, or CI issues
  • Before repeating a process done in a past session
  • When encountering an error that may have been solved before

Search: grep -ri "keyword" .archive/ Index: .archive/MEMORY.md

Archive Workflow

  1. Read .archive/MEMORY.md — check for related existing archives
  2. Create .archive/YYYY-MM-DD/ directory if needed
  3. Write markdown file with YAML frontmatter (see references/TEMPLATE.md)
  4. Update .archive/MEMORY.md: add one-line entry under the right category
  5. If related archives exist, add related field in frontmatter

Lookup Workflow

  1. Read .archive/MEMORY.md to find relevant entries
  2. Read the specific archive file for detailed context
  3. Apply learnings to current task
