Use whenever the user says "re-org the recall topics", "clean up recall", "make the recall coherent", "extract a general topic", "tidy the knowledge index", or when recall files have drifted (mismatched names, duplicated content, oversized files, a stale index). Keeps recall well-managed as a whole rather than fixing one file at a time.
