Canonical turn protocol for agents writing to Neotoma. Bounded retrieval on the user message, store user message PART_OF conversation with REFERS_TO edges to retrieved entities, store assistant reply the same way. Use this skill in any agent loop that should persist conversation state to Neotoma.
Session-end audit. Files remaining work as task entities and lists them as bullets, verifies all data intended for Neotoma storage from this session is actually stored, and persists what's missing. Invoke at the natural close of a working session, before context is lost.
Mid-session status report. Summarizes what's been achieved so far this session and what work remains, in succinct qualitative prose and bullets with only light technical detail. Read-only — stores nothing, files nothing. Invoke any time to take stock without closing the session.
Close a Neotoma working session — store the assistant reply and a session-close summary.
Retrieve the bounded context for the current session — recent interactions and relevant entities.
Begin a Neotoma working session — open a conversation and record the opening interaction.
Archive the working session at the end. Writes a session_close record to the state layer, logs every outbound interaction as a first-class row, writes task entities for follow-ups, and writes a project-level task ledger as a human-readable safety net. Run at the end of every working session to ensure nothing is lost.
Pull everything the agent needs to know about a topic (person, company, project, decision) before doing the work. Resolves the target, fetches the entity snapshot, the observation history, linked tasks, recent communication, and walks one hop of the relationship graph. Synthesizes a brief rather than dumping data.
