Concept Synthesis

Use this skill when the brain has overlapping concept notes that should be merged, tiered, or clarified.

Workflow

1. Search related concept pages.
2. Group duplicates, near-duplicates, and riffs.
3. Preserve provenance and citations.
4. Propose a synthesis:
   • canonical concept
   • related concepts
   • source trail
   • unresolved distinctions
5. Update pages only when the user wants the synthesis written back.

Guardrails

• Do not delete raw concept pages without explicit approval.
• Do not flatten genuinely different ideas into one page.
• Preserve the user's original phrasing where it matters.
