Memento:vault Audit

/vault-audit

Check structure. Flag staleness. Process inbox. Suggest cleanup.

Steps

1. Structure Check

Verify area-level _context.md files exist:

• Projects/_context.md (cross-project decisions)
• Personal/_context.md (hobbies, health, learning)
• Business/_context.md (cross-business decisions)
• Knowledge/_context.md (general cross-domain insights)

Verify each project under Projects/ has:

• _context.md (required)
• Active Reasoning Artifacts table in _context.md
• Subfolders created on-demand (don't flag missing empty folders)

2. Staleness Scan

For each project _context.md, check Active Reasoning Artifacts table:

Expiry check (first — overrides priority-based staleness):

• Scan for expires: YYYY-MM-DD in artifact text
• If past expiry date → flag as EXPIRED regardless of priority
• Show: "EXPIRED: #X — <artifact summary> (expired YYYY-MM-DD). Still valid?"

Priority-based staleness (for artifacts without expiry):

3. Inbox Processing

Check _inbox/ for unprocessed items. For each:

• Identify type (research, note, decision, reference)
• Route to correct project and subfolder
• Add proper frontmatter
• Update project _context.md document index

4. Fluff Detection

Flag documents that may be stale or redundant:

• Files with status: draft older than 30 days
• Duplicate content across projects
• Documents with no wikilinks (orphaned)
• MOC files with no backlinks (orphaned hubs)
• experiment-context files past their teardown date
• [S] seeds dormant > 90 days (not activated, not decided)

5. Report
