help

# /help Print the Origin plugin reference card. Read-only — never calls a tool. ## How to invoke When triggered, output the block below verbatim. No editing, no abbreviating, no embellishing. The user is asking for the menu. ``` Origin plugin — daily verbs /init set up Origin (auto-installs daemon + local memory) /brief load identity + topic context (start of session) /capture <x> save one durable memory in flow /recall <q> search local memory /distill [t] synthesize pages from clusters (scoped to current repo) /read <p> preview a distilled page inline /review <surface> deep audit (surface = captures|revisions); /brief handles daily /forget <id> delete a memory by ID /handoff end-of-session ritual (session log + captures) /debrief alias for /handoff (brief/debrief symmetry) /help this card Daily flow (~1 min overhead per session): 1. start session → hook auto-checks daemon, silent if up 2. /brief → ~5 s, load context 3. work normally → Claude proactively /captures durable facts 4. /recall X → as needed for lookups 5. /handoff → ~30 s, narrative session log + captures Where your data lives (everything under ~/.origin/): ~/.origin/pages/ wiki pages distilled from your memories (md) ~/.origin/sessions/ session logs by date (md) ~/.origin/sessions/_status/ current per-project goals + last-handoff ~/.origin/db/ memories + knowledge graph (symlink to libSQL) ~/.origin/bin/ installed binaries View it without a GUI: open ~/.origin/ browse in Finder code ~/.origin/ open in VS Code git -C ~/.origin log --oneline timeline of every memory + distill pass ln -s ~/.origin/pages ~/Vault/origin # symlink into Obsidian for graph view ~/.origin/ is a git repo. Skills auto-commit per logical batch (one per session, distill pass, or forget). Use git log / git diff / git revert as a free audit trail. No remote — purely local history. Three classes of artifact: - memories: granular, queryable, live in DB only (confirmed = stays in DB) - pages: synthesized wikis, DB + ~/.origin/pages/*.md projection - sessions: chronological narrative, ~/.origin/sessions/*.md only Daemon must run at 127.0.0.1:7878. Hook prints "/origin:init" if down. Optional upgrades for richer distill cycles: origin model install local Qwen, no API cost origin key set anthropic Anthropic API, higher quality ``` ## When to use - User explicitly types `/help`. - User asks "what can I do with origin", "list origin commands", "how does this plugin work", "remind me what verbs are available". - First session after install — print this once on `/init` success too. ## When NOT to use - Specific factual lookup → use `/recall`. - Setup troubleshooting → use `/init` (it diagnoses + auto-installs).
