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

Categories

  • **infrastructure** — AWS, ECS, IAM, networking, secrets, CloudWatch
  • **release** — TestFlight, versioning, Git Flow, CHANGELOG
  • **debugging** — Bug fixes, error resolution, gotchas
  • **feature** — Feature design, implementation notes
  • **design** — UI/UX, icons, visual design

Rules

  • `.archive/` must be in `.gitignore` — local-only notes
  • Keep entries concise but reproducible
  • Focus on **problems, fixes, and exact commands**
  • Always update MEMORY.md after creating an archive
  • Use descriptive filenames (e.g., `cloudwatch-logging.md` not `session.md`)
  • Include YAML frontmatter with `tags`, `category`, and optional `related`
