Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

Execution

1. Call `ijfw_metrics` to get counts and last-update timestamps for all tiers.

2. Scan `.ijfw/memory/` for all `.md` files. For each, note:

  • File name, size (lines), last modified date.
  • Days since last referenced (use file mtime as proxy).

3. Categorize entries:

ACTIVE  -- referenced within 30 days
STALE   -- not referenced in 30-90 days
ARCHIVE -- not referenced in 90+ days, or flagged as superseded

4. Report:

MEMORY HEALTH REPORT
  Total entries: <N>  |  Total size: ~<X> lines
  Active: <N>  |  Stale: <N>  |  Archive candidates: <N>

STALE ENTRIES (>30 days unreferenced)
  - <filename>: <one-line summary>  [last seen: <date>]

ARCHIVE CANDIDATES (>90 days or superseded)
  - <filename>: <one-line summary>  [last seen: <date>]

RECOMMENDATION
  Archive <N> entries to .ijfw/memory/archive/. No data is deleted.

5. **Pruning question:** for each entry flagged STALE or ARCHIVE, ask "Would removing this rule cause the agent to make a mistake?" If no, archive. If yes, keep and tighten. Memory that doesn't change behavior is bloat that crowds out memory that does.

6. Ask before acting: > `Archive <N> stale entries? (y/n -- files move to .ijfw/memory/archive/, not deleted)`

6. On confirmation, move flagged files. Store audit result: > `ijfw_memory_store: memory audit on <date> -- archived <N> entries`
