Memory Bank Init

--- name: memory-bank-init description: Create or refresh workspace memory-bank/ (MVP contract + read-only inventory). Path follows STORAGE manifest. No app code; no uv/specify. Use when invoking /memory-bank-init or Orchestrated Delivery Step 0 / Step N needs create/refresh/refresh-light.

STOP - Read before ANY tool call

1. Read E:/Source/Repos/agent-dev-toolkit/scripts/validation/fixtures/install-root/rules/guardrails.mdc
2. Read _shared/sdd-artifacts/SESSION.md; load session-state for $Cwd
3. If the relevant gate is not approved: STOP - ask user (pt-BR) - do NOT Write/Shell
4. After create or refresh / refresh-light completes: STOP - handoff only (do not start O1/O2/O3 in this skill)
5. This skill body is English; user-facing prompts may be (pt-BR)

Step -1 - Gate check (report in chat before continuing)

Gate check:
[ ] guardrails.mdc read
[ ] SESSION.md read; session-state loaded
[ ] MEMORY-BANK.md read
[ ] STORAGE.md read (bank_root resolution)
[ ] User confirmed current action (sim)
-> If any unchecked: STOP

Skill: memory-bank-init

Trigger

Invoke when the user asks for: /memory-bank-init, init memory bank, refresh memory bank, or when Orchestrated Delivery Step 0 / Step N (MEMORY-BANK.md) requires create/refresh/refresh-light.

Optional args: create (default if missing), refresh, refresh-light, path to consumer repo.

Outcome

Under the resolved bank_root (STORAGE.md + MEMORY-BANK.md):

memory-bank/
  project-context.md
  tech-stack.json
  architecture.md
  domain-knowledge.md
  conventions.md
  known-risks.md
  .inventory/
    sources.json
    gaps.md
    refresh-history.jsonl

Does not write application code. Does not install Python/uv/specify. Does not place the bank under features/NNN-slug/. Commit bank when product knowledge; never commit secrets. Do not add /memory-bank/ as a required SDD gitignore entry.

Lazy-load

Process

Step -1b - Caveman Mode (Lite cap)

1. Read E:/Source/Repos/agent-dev-toolkit/scripts/validation/fixtures/install-root/sdd/preferences.json (create { "caveman_mode": false, "caveman_level": "full" } if missing).
2. If caveman_mode is false: continue without compression.
3. If true: load E:/Source/Repos/agent-dev-toolkit/scripts/validation/fixtures/install-root/skills/_shared/caveman/CAVEMAN.md; apply Lite participation cap + prefs caveman_level (Lite skills never escalate); show once: [Caveman] Modo ativo (respostas compactas, level={effective}). Digite caveman off para desativar.
4. Honor caveman on|off|status|lite|full|ultra (and stop caveman / normal mode) during the session.
5. Auto-Clarity + never-compress gates/drafts/paths per CAVEMAN.md.

1. Gate check

Report Step -1 checklist. Load MEMORY-BANK.md and STORAGE.md. STOP if unchecked.

2. Resolve target

1. Confirm consumer repo (not toolkit unless explicit).
2. Resolve storage with $Workflow = classic (STORAGE.md).
3. bank_root:
   • repository -> $Cwd/memory-bank/
   • global -> <classic.path>/memory-bank/
4. Never under features/.
5. Mode:
   • create if bank missing/incomplete
   • refresh if user asked or Step 0 marked stale
   • refresh-light if user asked or O3 Step N after code changes

3. Gitignore (repository only)

If storage_mode is repository: ensure SDD .gitignore block per STORAGE.md (/features/ and safety-net patterns only — do not add or require /memory-bank/) before the first bank Write. Commit bank when product knowledge; never commit secrets.

If global: do not edit or suggest SDD patterns in the consumer .gitignore.

4. Confirm before write

Show (pt-BR): mode, full bank_root, files to create/update. Ask:

Posso gravar o memory-bank em '{path}'? (sim / ajustar / cancelar)

Write only after sim.

5. Inventory (read-only scan of consumer)

Prefer script (always scan $Cwd; write inventory under bank_root):

.\scripts\inventory\Invoke-MemoryBankInventory.ps1 -RepoPath "<consumer>" -BankPath "<bank_root>" -AllowCreateInventory

If script path unavailable, run equivalent Glob/Grep from reference.md and write only under <bank_root>/.inventory/.

6. Scaffold or refresh files

Rules:

• Preserve <!-- BEGIN GENERATED: … --> / <!-- END GENERATED: … --> discipline (reference.md)
• No secrets - env names / *** only
• Evidence-based domain/architecture; unknowns -> gaps.md
• Phase-2 contracts stay as gap lines only (no new required files)

7. Report + handoff

Report paths written, stack hints, blocking gaps (if any), storage mode.

Handoff examples:

/orchestrate-analyze
/memory-bank-init - refresh
/memory-bank-init - refresh-light

Must not

• Write application / test source
• Create bank under features/NNN-slug/
• Require external CLI tooling (uv, specify, Spec Kit installers)
• Skip confirm-before-write
• Dump entire bank into orchestrator parent context
• Auto-commit
• Edit consumer .gitignore when storage_mode is global
• Add or require /memory-bank/ in .gitignore
• Commit secrets into the bank (keys, tokens, connection strings, raw .env)
