Update Project

Update Project

Maintain one local project ledger from many session records without erasing history or overstating contribution.

Resolve Inputs

Let <plugin-root> be ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} when Claude Code supplies it; otherwise use the directory two levels above this SKILL.md. Resolve the vault with Chronicle's CLI and use:

• <plugin-root>/docs/DATA_MODEL.ko.md for data and review rules;
• <plugin-root>/templates/project/ for ledger structure;
• chronicle/projects/<project-id>/ for project data;
• chronicle/sessions/ and chronicle/inbox/unclassified/ for source records.

If the project is not explicit, run resolve-project. Never create or merge a new project solely from a suggested ID. Ask the user to confirm the project name and whether it is new.

Update Workflow

1. Read the existing project files before editing them.
2. Select source sessions that reference the project and have not already been incorporated. Use source session IDs for idempotency.
3. If creating a confirmed project, initialize:
   • PROJECT.md
   • TIMELINE.md
   • OWNERSHIP.md
   • DECISIONS.md
   • EVIDENCE.md
   • STAR.md
   • QUIZ_HISTORY.md Use [] for unknown source_paths, git_remotes, or aliases; do not add empty strings merely to fill the template.
4. Merge each fact into the narrowest file:
   • purpose, problem, scope, architecture, constraints, status, outcomes: PROJECT.md;
   • chronological session summaries: TIMELINE.md;
   • direct and shared contribution: OWNERSHIP.md;
   • alternatives, rationale, trade-offs, and reversals: DECISIONS.md;
   • claim state and supporting references: EVIDENCE.md.
5. Preserve manually written material and unknown sections. Prefer appending or targeted edits over regenerating whole files.
6. Do not duplicate a timeline or decision entry that already cites the same session and subject.
7. Retain [confirmed], [inferred], and [needs-evidence] labels. Upgrade a label only when new direct evidence or user confirmation supports it.
8. Separate Directly Owned from Shared Responsibility. Do not infer ownership from the fact that the session discussed or edited an area.
9. When new information conflicts with the ledger, preserve both accounts and add a visible Conflict — needs review note with their evidence. Do not pick a winner silently.
10. When the user confirms an unclassified record's project, update its project field and move it from inbox/unclassified/ to the matching sessions/YYYY/MM/ directory. Preserve captured status and validate it.
11. Update updated_at, then validate PROJECT.md with Chronicle's CLI.

Hybrid Review

After merging, ask only about high-impact uncertainty: ownership, numerical results, decision rationale, project identity, or a conflict. Ask one concise question at a time.

When the user resolves every critical item for a source session, change that session from captured to reviewed and add user-confirmed:<date> where appropriate. Leave unresolved sessions as captured; project timelines may still cite them with their status.

Report

Summarize files changed, sessions incorporated, duplicate entries skipped, conflicts found, and critical review questions left. Never describe inferred outcomes as verified.
