Workbench Memory Synthesis
Use this skill for durable memory, session summaries, decision logs, issue closeout synthesis, and handoffs.
Memory Rules
- Prefer short canonical updates over duplicate drafts.
- Keep the next session resumable from files, not hidden model memory.
- Record decisions separately from logs.
- Keep strategy in synthesis documents and execution evidence in logs or issue comments.
- If a session-derived behavior should affect future agents, bridge it through
workbench-waking-up into a public-safe repo surface instead of leaving it only in chat memory.
- Preserve IDs that matter for recovery: issue IDs, run IDs, comment IDs, agent IDs, autopilot IDs, commit IDs.
- When a run stalls and a conductor proxy posts evidence, record both the proxy ID and the later agent-authored artifact ID if it appears.
- Record live resource IDs only after post-sync verification confirms them.
Synthesis Method
- Collect the latest verified state.
- Remove stale next actions that are already complete.
- Add only durable facts and decisions.
- Keep uncertainty explicit.
- Name the next immediate action.
Output Contract
Return:
CURRENT STATE
DECISIONS
EVIDENCE
RISKS
NEXT ACTION
Do not rewrite history. Append or revise only the minimum needed to keep the operating memory accurate.
