Session Start Memory

Primary workflow

1. Read MEMORY.md in the repo root.

   • Load Long-Term Memory protocols first.
   • Check Lessons (Inbox) and Short-Term for active items.
   • Treat Session State as volatile; update it only after confirming with the user.

2. Read core project context files (if present):

   • README.md for project overview and commands.

3. Summarize in 5-8 bullets:

   • Most relevant protocols that will affect the upcoming work.
   • Any active lessons or warnings.
   • Key project constraints (tests, tools, conventions).

4. Ask for confirmation before making changes:

   • Confirm the planned next steps.
   • Ask whether to update or clear Session State.

Notes

• If any file is missing, state it briefly and proceed with what is available.
• Keep the summary concise; focus on constraints that change behavior.
