# Meta Skill

Context management, memory, retrospectives, and multi-agent coordination patterns.

## Quick Reference

| Area | Key Patterns | When to Use |
|------|--------------|-------------|
| **Context Manager** | Session coordination, multi-agent | Long workflows |
| **Change Executor** | Mechanical implementation | Executing plans |
| **Autonomous Worker** | Stigmergy, independent work | Parallel tasks |
| **Meta Observer** | Session monitoring, synthesis | Coordination |
| **Memory Manager** | Persistence, retrieval | Cross-session |
| **Retro Analyzer** | Pattern extraction, insights | Learning |

## Context Management

### Session Context Pattern

```markdown
## Session Context

### Active Task
- **Goal**: [Current objective]
- **Phase**: [Research | Plan | Implement | Review]
- **Progress**: [What's done, what's next]

### Key Decisions
1. [Decision 1] - [Rationale]
2. [Decision 2] - [Rationale]

### Blockers
- [Blocker 1] - [Status]

### Files Modified
- [file1.py] - [Change summary]
- [file2.ts] - [Change summary]

### Next Steps
1. [Step 1]
2. [Step 2]
```

### Context Preservation

For long-running tasks or compaction recovery:

```markdown
## Context Recovery

### What Was Happening
[Brief description of the work in progress]

### Current State
- Branch: [branch name]
- Last commit: [hash] - [message]
- Uncommitted changes: [list files]

### Continuation Instructions
[What to do next to resume work]
```

## Change Execution

### Mechanical Implementation

When executing a well-defined plan:

1. **Read the plan** - Understand exact changes
2. **Execute sequentially** - One change at a time
3. **Validate each step** - Run tests after changes
4. **Document progress** - Update tracking

### Execution Log

```markdown
## Execution Log

### Plan: [Plan Name]

| Step | File | Change | Status |
|------|------|--------|--------|
| 1 | src/api.py:45 | Add endpoint | ✅ |
| 2 | tests/test_api.py | Add tests | ✅ |
| 3 | README.md | Update docs | ⏳ |
