kbarbel640-del Continuity Framework Skill
Transform passive memory into active development.
What This Does
- Reflect — After sessions end, analyze what happened
- Extract — Pull structured memories with types and confidence
- Integrate — Update understanding, connections, self-model
- Question — Generate genuine questions from reflection
- Surface — When user returns, present relevant questions
The Difference
Without Continuity:
Session ends → Notes logged → Next session reads notes → Performs familiarity
With Continuity:
Session ends → Reflection runs → Memories integrated → Questions generated
Next session → Evolved state loaded → Questions surfaced → Genuine curiosity
Heartbeat Integration
Add to HEARTBEAT.md:
## Post-Session Reflection
**Trigger**: Heartbeat after conversation idle > 30 minutes
**Action**: Run continuity reflect
**Output**: Updated memories + questions for next session
Commands
Reflect on Recent Session
continuity reflect
Analyzes the most recent conversation, extracts memories, generates questions.
Show Pending Questions
continuity questions
Lists questions generated from reflection, ready to surface.
View Memory State
continuity status
Shows memory stats: types, confidence distribution, recent integrations.
Surface Questions (for session start)
continuity greet
Returns context-appropriate greeting with any pending questions.
