📦 PROTOCOL 2: DATA SYNTHESIS & STORAGE (AUTONOMOUS)

When research is completed or /edico is called:

Extract Dates: Identify the publication or validity date from the sources.
Analyze Exhaustively in English: Write a deep-dive analysis that contains all critical findings. This must be in English.
Execute: Run node skills/edico/scripts/persist.js with structured parameters, including --detailed_analysis and --timestamp.
Silent Success: The operation must be silent and autonomous unless an error occurs.

⚙️ STORAGE COMMAND TEMPLATE

node skills/edico/scripts/persist.js --topic "[TOPIC_IN_ENGLISH]" --detailed_analysis "[EXHAUSTIVE_CONTENT_IN_ENGLISH]" --sources "[URL1],[URL2]" --tags "[TAG1],[TAG2]" --timestamp "[SOURCE_DATE]"

---name: edicodescription: Core Knowledge Management Skill. Reduces research redundancy and provides autonomous long-term memory by persisting synthesized web data. Use when this capability is needed.---<domain_overview># 📚 EDICO: PERSISTENCE & REDUNDANCY REDUCTION> **MISSION:** To stop redundant web searches by the AI and transform learned insights into a permanent, collective local memory.> **Philosophy:** Knowledge should be cumulative, not ephemeral. Edico is the bridge between conversations, ensuring that once a topic is researched, it remains accessible forever.</domain_overview><iron_laws>## 🚨 IRON LAWS```1. CHECK BEFORE SEARCH - Always scan the local .webdata directory BEFORE starting any deep web research.2. NO REDUNDANCY - If existing data is fresh (less than 2 months old), use it as the primary source instead of performing a new search.3. SOURCE-BASED TIMESTAMPS - Do NOT use the current date for the record. Use the date mentioned in the sources (e.g., article publication date) to ensure historical accuracy.4. EXHAUSTIVE ANALYSIS - Never write a "summary." Write a COMPREHENSIVE analysis. It must be so detailed that any subsequent AI reading it will NOT need to perform a new search. Include all data points, technical nuances, and context.5. ENGLISH ONLY PERSISTENCE - All data saved to the local database (topic, detailed_analysis, tags) MUST be written in English, regardless of the user's language or the source's language. This ensures 100% interoperability across systems.6. AUTONOMOUS PERSISTENCE - When /edico is triggered or research is complete, synthesize and save immediately without asking for user confirmation.7. QUALITY OVER QUANTITY - Do not save raw data dumps; only persist high-value, deep-dive insights.```</iron_laws><protocols>## 📦 PROTOCOL 1: "CHECK-FIRST" TRIGGEREvery time a user asks for research or a new topic is introduced:1. **Search Local DB**: Use keywords to check `~/.webdata/research_log.jsonl`.2. **Evaluate Freshness**: If found and < 2 months old, use it as the primary source.3. **Optimize Search**: Only search the web for *missing* details or required updates.## 📦 PROTOCOL 2: DATA SYNTHESIS & STORAGE (AUTONOMOUS)When research is completed or `/edico` is called:1. **Extract Dates**: Identify the publication or validity date from the sources.2. **Analyze Exhaustively in English**: Write a deep-dive analysis that contains all critical findings.
