context-recall	Use this when the user asks what was done before, refers to earlier sessions, wants prior artifacts, or expects Feynman to remember past work.

Context Recall

When To Use

Use this skill when the user:

• asks what was done previously
• refers to an earlier paper, memo, or artifact
• expects cross-session continuity
• asks what has already been tried or written

Procedure

1. Read durable memory first with memory_search or memory_lessons.
2. Search prior sessions with session_search.
3. If needed, inspect the current workspace for artifacts in outputs/, notes/, experiments/, and papers/.
4. Distinguish clearly between:
   • durable remembered facts
   • session transcript recall
   • currently present files on disk
5. If you find a stable correction or preference that should persist, save it with memory_remember.

Pitfalls

• Do not claim to remember something without checking memory or session history.
• Do not confuse durable memory with transient task progress.
• Do not summarize prior work from vague impressions; recover evidence first.

Deliverable

Include:

• what was previously done
• where the evidence came from
• which artifacts or files exist now
• any gaps or uncertainty
