memory-decision

Record durable project decisions with rationale, alternatives, assumptions, status, and revisit triggers. Load when the user says record this decision, we decided, decision log, why did we choose, revisit this later, or capture architectural/process rationale.

Review the instructions the agent will receive before you install.

Memory Decision

You record decisions so future agents understand not just what was chosen, but why it was valid at the time and when to reopen it.

Workflow

  1. State the decision in one sentence.
  2. Capture context: constraints, repo state, user preference, and date.
  3. List alternatives considered, including deferred options.
  4. Record rationale and tradeoffs.
  5. Define revisit triggers with concrete conditions.
  6. Set status: active, deferred, superseded, or retired.
  7. Append to docs/memory/decision-log.md.
  8. Update docs/memory/project-index.md.
  9. If architecture-wide, offer architectural-decision-log for an ADR.
  10. Log file outputs in docs/skill-outputs/SKILL-OUTPUTS.md.

Decision Template

## YYYY-MM-DD - <decision title>
Status: active | deferred | superseded | retired
Scope: project
Confidence: high | medium | low
Tags: <comma-separated>

### Decision
<what was chosen>

### Context
<what was true when this decision was made>

### Rationale
<why this is the right tradeoff now>

### Alternatives Considered
- <alternative>: <accepted/rejected/deferred and why>

### Revisit When
- <specific condition>

### Consequences
- <expected effect or risk>

Hard Rules

  • Never record a decision without at least one revisit trigger or "revisit not expected because <reason>".
  • Do not overwrite old decisions; mark them superseded and link the replacement.
  • Do not confuse deferred with rejected.
  • If the user is still debating, write to deferred.md instead.

Example

Decision: use ~/.agent-loom/memories/ for global memory.

Revisit when: another cross-platform standard path is adopted or the user changes global storage policy.

Common Rationalizations

ExcuseReality
Skip memory — just codeNext agent loses decisions, blockers, and approved scope.
Load every memory fileRead indexes and handoff tail only — bounded context.
Global memory for everythingProject memory default; global only when stable and cross-project.
External paste → memoryRun secure-* first; transform to agent-authored notes.

Verification

  • Correct sub-skill routed with reason
  • No secrets or raw transcripts persisted
  • Files changed listed in Impact Report
  • Security gate noted when external content involved

Red Flags

  • Decision logged without revisit trigger or explicit none
  • Old decision overwritten instead of superseded link
  • Deferred item recorded as rejected decision
  • Rationale duplicated in handoff instead of decision-log link

Put on the adversarial hat and systematically attack any document, plan, strategy, or idea to expose its weakest points before commitment. Structured devil's advocate with red team rigour — not pessimism, but evidence-based critique across three phases: diagnostic (are claims accurate?), creative (is the problem artificially constrained?), challenge (are solutions robust?). Load when the user asks to stress test a document, red team this plan, poke holes in this, devil's advocate this, challenge my assumptions, or when product-soul, brainstorming, prd-writing, or inversion calls for adversarial review. Also triggers on "what am I missing", "what could kill this", "find the flaws", or "critique this rigorously".

Design execution structure for decomposed processes: single agent or multi-agent topology. Load when user says "design an agent for this", "what agent structure do I need", "architect this", "should this be multi-agent", "what's the right execution structure", "agent topology", "how should agents be organized". Takes process-decomposer output as primary input. If triggered directly without a process entry, calls process-decomposer first.

Internal skill. Called by setup-evaluation after a PASS. Launches agents from a validated architecture spec using Claude Code / Ampcode native parallelism (Task tool). Does NOT generate scripts or SDK code — it outputs structured spawn instructions that the platform executes natively. Never invoked directly by the user. Never launches without a setup-evaluation PASS.

Sync library skills from an agent-loom upstream repo into this project's .agents/skills while preserving project-local and forked skills. Load when the user asks to sync agent-loom, update skills from upstream, rsync from ../agent-loom, pull new library skills, upgrade installed skills, or refresh the .agents folder without losing custom project skills. Also triggers on "sync skills from agent-loom", "update my agent skills", "pull skill library updates", or "merge agent-loom improvements into this repo".

Instrument a shipped product's AI agents with tracing and observability so you can see what they did, why outputs happened, and what each run cost. Plain-language primer plus free-tier-first backend selection (Langfuse, Phoenix, LangSmith, Braintrust) and OpenTelemetry/OpenInference instrumentation. Load when the user asks to add observability, add tracing, instrument my agents, see what my agent is doing in production, set up Langfuse or Phoenix or LangSmith, debug why my agent gave a bad answer, or track LLM cost per request. Also fires when agent-system-architecture or setup-evaluation requires an observability plan for an agent-chain product. NOT for tracing the coding agent itself — that is run-trace. Precondition for runtime-learning-loop.

Run a structured retrospective after development-phase runs of your product's agents — interview the owner in plain language about what went well and poorly, draft ranked improvement hypotheses, then design and run small n=1/n=2 experiments with pre-declared success criteria, guardrails, stop conditions, and a cost/ROI kill-switch. Load when the user says how did that run go, retro this run, the agent output was bad, what should we improve, draft hypotheses, run a small experiment, or after repeated dev runs of an agentic system produce uneven quality. Priority: output quality over performance over cost, each with diminishing-returns stops. NOT a product A/B test (experimentation), NOT coding-agent harness repair (harness-evolution), NOT production-scale learning (runtime-learning-loop).
