- Read
.archive/MEMORY.md— check for related existing archives - Create
.archive/YYYY-MM-DD/directory if needed - Write markdown file with YAML frontmatter (see
references/TEMPLATE.md) - Update
.archive/MEMORY.md: add one-line entry under the right category - If related archives exist, add
relatedfield in frontmatter

- Read
.archive/MEMORY.mdto find relevant entries - Read the specific archive file for detailed context
- Apply learnings to current task
Categories
- infrastructure — AWS, ECS, IAM, networking, secrets, CloudWatch
- release — TestFlight, versioning, Git Flow, CHANGELOG
- debugging — Bug fixes, error resolution, gotchas
- feature — Feature design, implementation notes
- design — UI/UX, icons, visual design
Rules
.archive/must be in.gitignore— local-only notes- Keep entries concise but reproducible
- Focus on problems, fixes, and exact commands
- Always update MEMORY.md after creating an archive
- Use descriptive filenames (e.g.,
cloudwatch-logging.mdnotsession.md) - Include YAML frontmatter with
