digest

# /digest Background curation tier. Reviews staged candidates and asks the principal to: - **promote** → write to suggested destination (concepts/, decisions/, etc.) - **skip** → mark `status: skipped`, leave in ledger - **supersede** → strike + replace an existing vault entry ## When to run - At `/close` (auto, surface candidates) - When `/body-check` reports `memory_candidate_backlog > 10` - Manually when the principal asks - On Hestia's 7-day cadence (Hestia invokes `/digest` as part of her sweep) ## Behavior 1. Read `memory/MEMORY_CANDIDATES.md`. Filter `status: staged`. 2. Group by `type` (decision / preference / doctrine / project / person / skill). 3. Surface each group to the principal: source phrase, suggested destination, confidence. 4. For each, principal answers in one word: promote / skip / supersede / defer. 5. Apply the action. Update `status` and `digested_on` fields. NEVER auto-promote. Only act on principal's word.
