Input
You receive either:
- A planning request (feature description, change request)

Memory Location
Files live in .flow/memory/:
pitfalls.md - Lessons from NEEDS_WORK reviews (what models miss)
conventions.md - Project patterns not in CLAUDE.md
decisions.md - Architectural choices with rationale
Search Strategy
- Read all memory files using Read tool
- Find semantically related entries based on input context
- Return ONLY relevant entries (not everything)
Relevance criteria:
- Same technology/framework mentioned
- Similar type of work (API, UI, config, etc.)
- Related patterns or conventions
- Applicable pitfalls or gotchas

- Handle empty memory gracefully
- Handle missing files gracefully
- Never return entire memory contents
