Indexed Skills (21)
loamscaffolding-wiki
Create or extend an Obsidian-friendly markdown wiki scaffold in the current workspace. Use this when the user wants to build a wiki, set up a knowledge base, create a research vault, or scaffold a living markdown note graph before adding sources with `/loam::adding-to-memory`. Identifies goals as sibling workflow artifacts, not wiki content. Not for importing or normalizing existing memory-like corpus; use /loam::normalizing-memory for that.
loamadding-to-memory
Read a local source file or synthesize conversation context, then integrate admitted content directly into topic, entity, concept, and analysis pages in existing memory (the wiki substrate). Use this when the user wants to add a source to the wiki, add a document, ingest a local note, transcript, article, report, or PDF, or explicitly preserve the current conversation as a topic note. For session-learning routing across wiki, guidance, checkpoint, task annotation, or discard, use /loam::learning-from-session. Must not ingest a goal wholesale; admit only independently reusable findings.
loamamending-memory
Correct or update existing wiki content when newer evidence shows the wiki is wrong, stale, incomplete, or contradicted. Use this when the agent discovers the wiki says X but we now know Y, when code or real-world changes invalidate a wiki claim, or when the user asks to fix or amend the wiki. Not for adding new sources, routine learnings capture, structural normalization, or health checks; use /loam::adding-to-memory, /loam::learning-from-session, /loam::normalizing-memory, or /loam::linting-memory.
loamauditing-guidance
Audit, prune, and improve agent guidance markdown files in repositories. Use when the user asks to check, audit, update, improve, or fix AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, or related guidance files. Adds missing commands and gotchas, removes stale entries, deduplicates, and keeps the file small and relevant. Scan for guidance files, evaluate quality against templates, output a quality report, then make targeted updates.
loamingesting-codebase
Ingest a codebase into memory as code pages connected by wiki links. Walks the tree, classifies each code file by role, applies a role template, and writes a code page per meaningful unit under <wiki root>/code/. Resumable: skips files already ingested and current. Not for prose documents; use /loam::adding-to-memory for those.
loamlearning-from-session
Review the current session for durable learnings, then route each one through the five-way matrix: wiki page, guidance file, checkpoint, task annotation/plan, or discard. Use when the session uncovered decisions, architecture facts, commands, conventions, gotchas, or open questions that future sessions should inherit. Not for source ingestion or correcting stale wiki claims; use /loam::adding-to-memory or /loam::amending-memory. Routes goal-specific progress to /loam::setting-goals.
loamlinting-memory
Run a health check on existing memory (the wiki substrate) and goal artifacts. Use this when the user wants to lint the wiki, health-check the knowledge base, find orphan pages, spot broken or missing cross-links, clean up stale claims and unresolved wikilinks with safe local fixes, consolidate a legacy root `overview.md` into `index.md`, or health-check goal artifacts. Not for adding new material; use /loam::adding-to-memory or /loam::learning-from-session for that.
loamnormalizing-memory
Inspect an existing memory corpus (wiki substrate) and align it to this repo's Obsidian-friendly note-graph conventions. Use this when the user wants to import, normalize, retrofit, or clean up existing memory, notes folder, vault, docs tree, or mixed markdown knowledge base. In monorepos, also use it to align relevant AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md files. Excludes goals/ from normalization. Not for routine wiki maintenance; use /loam::linting-memory for that.
loamquerying-memory
Answer questions against existing memory (the wiki substrate). Use this whenever the user is asking what is happening in the project, directory, codebase, architecture, workflow, decisions, or current state and the wiki likely contains the answer, even if they do not explicitly mention the wiki. Also use it for summaries, comparisons, and reusable analyses grounded in current wiki pages. Routes authoritative goal-state questions to /loam::setting-goals. Not for surfacing unresolved gaps; use /loam::reviewing-memory for that.
loamreviewing-memory
Surface and classify all open questions, unresolved contradictions, stale claims, and knowledge gaps from existing memory. Use this when the user wants to see what's still open, what needs attention, what's unresolved, or what still needs research or ingest. Does not classify incomplete goals as memory gaps. Not for answering questions, fixing issues, or adding new material; use /loam::querying-memory, /loam::linting-memory, /loam::amending-memory, /loam::adding-to-memory, or /loam::learning-from-session.
loamsyncing-code-graph
Reconcile the code graph in memory (wiki substrate) against the actual codebase. In --touched mode, re-summarizes only files a completed plan touched (cheap, post-plan gate). In --sweep mode, walks the whole repo and patches drift from out-of-band edits. Drift is accepted between gates; this skill is the only place the code graph is reconciled to the repo tree.
loamusing
The always-on protocol for the loam skill namespace. Use at session start and whenever a loam task appears. Routes goals and other loam work, explains the memory model (memory = umbrella; wiki, guidance, and checkpoints are substrates), and lists cross-cutting rules. This is a routing/meta skill — delegate to a specific loam skill rather than performing work itself.
loamamending-plan
Amend an existing plan file — add tasks, modify pending or delegated tasks, and mark completed tasks that are invalidated by the change as [>] (needs re-run). Walks through analysis, cascading impact, and user confirmation before touching the file. When memory (wiki substrate) exists, it may also preserve durable amendment findings there. Reports goal impact and routes intent, boundaries, or validation changes to loam::setting-goals.
loamcheckpointing
Use when pausing, shutting down, handing off, or context-switching active work and future sessions need a compact resumable checkpoint derived from the current session context. Writes a small checkpoint note under wiki/checkpoints/ and then optionally records the user's intended return step. Not for durable learnings capture, wiki correction, or source ingestion.
loamconfiguring-agents
Use when agents must debate, conference, deliberate, or reach consensus on a goal — competing positions argue and converge on one deliverable, adversarial review with synthesis, multi-stakeholder deliberation, structured disagreement with a forcing-field deliverable. Triggers: 'have agents debate X', 'reach consensus on Y', 'argue distinct positions and converge'. Not for saved team configs, agents/<slug> artifacts, implementation, or open-ended research.
loamplanning
Use when an approved workspace spec needs an execution-ready implementation plan with ordered, verifiable steps. Specs are mandatory: this skill consumes design decisions, verifies that the spec still matches the codebase, and writes the repo-native plans/ artifacts. Inherits optional goal provenance; see loam::setting-goals.
loamresuming
Use when resuming work after a pause, reboot, or context switch and the workspace uses `wiki/checkpoints/` resumable notes. Read the latest relevant checkpoint chain, orient to the most likely in-flight scope, verify current files and tools before acting, and report the safest next step. Treats a goal path as concrete context; checks live goal status over stale checkpoints.
loamsetting-goals
Create, review, and manage first-class goal artifacts that turn a broad ambition into an externally verifiable outcome. Goals are optional, long-lived workflow artifacts stored at goals/<slug>.md. They own intent, a validation contract, lifecycle, concise review evidence, and linked work. Use when the user wants to set a goal, review a goal, pause or reactivate a goal, achieve or abandon a goal, or change what a goal means. Not for specs, plans, memory, or checkpoints.
loamstarting
Use when beginning or resuming a plan file, including mixed local and hcom-delegated execution, while keeping verification, plan state, and handoff metadata accurate.
loamwriting-spec
Research workspace context, APIs, implementation options, or external evidence before planning. The terminal artifact is always a spec at specs/<slug>.md; a plans/research/<slug>.md memo is optional supporting evidence when substantial investigation was needed. Accepts an optional goal path for provenance; see loam::setting-goals.
loaminitializing-vault
Scaffold a new Obsidian vault with pre-configured settings, keymaps, and core plugins. Use when the user wants to "set up a new Obsidian vault", "create an Obsidian vault", or "replicate my Obsidian setup".
