| name | triage-knowledge |
| description | Use after significant actions (commits, decisions, refactors) or when asked to triage changes — classifies knowledge items as existing or new and provides topology hints for sync and capture. |
Overview
Scan docs/ against conversation context or an action summary.
Classify each knowledge item as existing or new, and return topology hints
(connected nodes, shared tags) so sync and capture can use them during execution.
Process
1. Extract knowledge items from context
From conversation or action summary, identify:
- Decisions made, conventions established, components changed, patterns discovered
2. Search docs/ for each item
For each item:
- Grep docs/ for keywords, titles, tags
- Read matched files to confirm relevance
3. Build topology hints
For matched nodes:
- Extract wikilink connections ([[target]] patterns)
- Identify nodes sharing tags
- Flag hub/orphan status
For unmatched new items:
- Suggest related existing nodes based on tags or content overlap
4. Return classified list
Output Format
Autology — Triage Results
Existing (→ sync)
- docs/foo.md — matches [item description]
Connected: [[bar]], [[baz]] | Tags: arch, api | Hub (5 links)
- docs/qux.md — matches [item description]
Connected: [[foo]] | Tags: convention | Orphan-adjacent
New (→ capture)
- [item description] — no matching node
Suggested relations: [[foo]], [[bar]] (shared tags: architecture)
- [item description] — no matching node
Suggested relations: none
If no existing docs match any items, use empty-state format:
Autology — Triage Results
No existing matches found. All items classified as new.
New (→ capture)
- [item description] — no matching node
Suggested relations: [[foo]] (shared tags: architecture)
Common Mistakes
| Mistake | Fix |
|---|
| Judge relevance by keyword match alone | Read the file to confirm actual relevance |
| Omit topology hints | sync/capture rely on connected/suggested relations — always include |
| Ignore implicit relations | Check tags and content overlap even without wikilinks |
