/aget-studyup

Focused KB research on a specific topic before proposing changes or starting implementation.

Purpose

Per L335 (Memory Architecture) and PATTERN_step_back_review_kb, this skill enables targeted research across the knowledge base. Use it to gather context and precedents before implementing changes.

Input

$ARGUMENTS - The topic to research (required)

Examples:

• /aget-studyup release — Research release-related artifacts
• /aget-studyup skills — Research skill-related context
• /aget-studyup L477 — Find references to specific L-doc

Execution

Step 1: Validate Input

If no topic provided, prompt user:

Topic required

Usage: /aget-studyup <topic>

Example: /aget-studyup release

Step 2: Run Study Up Script

python3 scripts/study_up.py --topic "$ARGUMENTS"

The script searches 5 KB areas:

• L-docs (.aget/evolution/L*.md)
• Patterns (docs/patterns/PATTERN_*.md)
• PROJECT_PLANs (planning/PROJECT_PLAN*.md)
• SOPs (sops/SOP_*.md)
• Governance (governance/*.md)

Step 3: Present Findings

Display results in this format:

=== /aget-studyup: {topic} ===

L-docs Found: [count]
  - L###: {title} ({match_count} matches)
  - ...

Patterns Found: [count]
  - PATTERN_{name}: {matches}

PROJECT_PLANs Found: [count]
  - {plan_name}: {status}

SOPs Found: [count]
  - SOP_{name}: {matches}

Governance: [count]
  - {file}: {matches}

Recommendation:
  [coverage assessment based on findings]

Step 4: Suggest Next Steps

Based on findings, suggest:

• Specific L-docs to read in detail
• Active PROJECT_PLANs to be aware of
• Governance constraints that apply

Output Modes

Human-Readable (default)

python3 scripts/study_up.py --topic "$ARGUMENTS"

JSON (programmatic)

python3 scripts/study_up.py --topic "$ARGUMENTS" --json

Quiet (minimal)

python3 scripts/study_up.py --topic "$ARGUMENTS" --quiet

Constraints

• C1: Topic argument is REQUIRED. Do not run without a topic.
• C2: Read-only operation. Never modify KB files.
• C3: Present findings objectively. Let user decide relevance.
• C4: If topic returns 0 results, report "No matches found" and suggest alternative search terms.
