What it does

Sweep the current conversation for durable knowledge - user preferences, project facts, operational gotchas, standing decisions, and unfinished next steps - and file each through explicit instructions, existing local conventions, or the private `.stow-notes.md` fallback, curating tiered, decaying destination files as it writes. Use when the user invokes /stow, asks to save or write down what was learned this session, or before a context reset or long break.

<!-- maintainers: this is the public, installer-facing skill. Keep it standalone, with no private project paths, tool assumptions, or environment branching. The firstmate-internal counterpart lives at .agents/skills/stow/SKILL.md - deliberately a separate file with no shared code. Keep them independent. -->

stow

Sweep this conversation for durable knowledge that only exists in chat right now, and file it through the user's explicit instructions, the project's existing local conventions, or the private .stow-notes.md fallback in the current directory. The goal is to leave the next session a compact, current operating map, not an accumulating journal: every durable finding lands on disk, and every file this skill touches comes out more accurate, not merely longer. Entries are tiered and decay between passes, and stale material retires to a local archive instead of being deleted. Everything files to a local destination by default; an external system such as an issue tracker is reached only through the explicit-instruction rule in step 3.
