cache
Use when the user wants to view, search, add, edit, prune, archive, or clear hyperflow memory entries. CRUD interface for `.hyperflow/memory/` — never modifies source code, only memory files. Trigger with /hyperflow:cache, "show memory", "search memory for X", "clear memory", "what does hyperflow remember about Y".

hyperflow
Fifteen specialized slash commands turn one Claude session into a structured multi-agent engineering pipeline. Thinking models orchestrate, triage, and review; worker models execute in parallel — every step is a Worker → Reviewer pair, and every non-trivial phase fans into sub-phases with their own reviewers. Auto-routing is on by default — say 'audit the diff', 'debug this test', 'large migration', or 'run a workflow' and the orchestrator routes to the right skill without the /hyperflow:* prefix. /hyperflow:workflow uses Claude Code dynamic workflows for big tasks and a portable Codex/OpenCode adapter where native workflows are unavailable; /hyperflow:spec asks the questions a senior engineer would; /hyperflow:scope decomposes into a batched task graph; /hyperflow:dispatch fans out persona-stitched workers under tiered review; /hyperflow:amplify rewrites a rough prompt into a high-quality one before you run it. 15 composable personas, 6 adaptive flow profiles, and persistent project memory compound across sessions. Works across Codex App/CLI, Claude Code, OpenCode, and Antigravity.

Instructions
Cache
CRUD interface for .hyperflow/memory/. Full protocol: memory-system.md.
Storage
All operations target .hyperflow/memory/ at the project root. Never modify source code files — if asked to "remember X about file Y", add a memory entry only, never edit Y.
Subcommands
| Subcommand | Description |
|---|---|
show [tag] |
Print index or filter entries by tag |
search |
Full-text search across all memory files |
add |
Append a new entry (prompts for details) |
edit |
Find entry by date+title slug and update in place |
prune |
Remove stale, superseded, and orphaned entries |
archive |
Move entries older than 30 days to cold storage |
clear |
Wipe all memory (with confirmation, recoverable) |
stats |
Counts, tier breakdown, tag frequency, oldest/newest |
migrate |
Import entries from legacy ~/.claude/hyperflow-memory.md |
off |
Disable memory writes for this session |
compact |
Summarise aged memory entries into stubs + monthly archive sidecars |
Subcommand Details
show [tag]
No arg → print index.md. With tag → filter all files for matching entries.
Output table: Date | Title | Tags | File | Tier
search
grep/ripgrep across learnings.md, decisions.md, pitfalls.md, patterns.md, conventions.md.
Return file:line + snippet, ranked by relevance.
add
Categories: learning decision pitfall pattern convention
Prompt via AskUserQuestion for: what, why it matters, tags (controlled vocab).
Append to the matching file using:
### [YYYY-MM-DD] <title> `[tag1, tag2]`
**What:** ...
**Why it matters:** ...
**Evidence:** ...
Update index.md with the new row.
edit
Locate by date+title slug. Show current value, prompt for new value, update in place.
prune
Per memory-system.md pruning protocol:
- Remove
[SUPERSEDED]entries older than 7 days - Remove entries whose referenced files no longer exist (
test -f) - Archive entries unreferenced 90+ days to
.hyperflow/memory/archive/YYYY-MM.md
Print summary of removed/archived counts.
archive
Compress hot entries older than 30 days → .hyperflow/memory/archive/YYYY-MM.md.
Leave one-line summary in original file. Update index.md tier column.
clear
Confirm via AskUserQuestion: "This wipes all memory for this project. Are you sure?"
If yes → move all content to .hyperflow/memory/archive/cleared-, then reset files to empty stubs.
stats
Print: total entries, hot/warm/cold counts, tag frequency table, oldest and newest entry dates.
migrate
Read ~/.claude/hyperflow-memory.md, filter entries matching current project path.
Append matching entries to learnings.md. Leave legacy file untouched.
Print count of migrated entries.
off
Print: "Memory writes disabled for this session." No files modified.
compact
User-invoked memory compaction. Summarises entries older than 7 days into stub lines and preserves the full text in monthly archive sidecars at .hyperflow/memory/archive/YYYY-MM.md.
Flow:
- The compact subcommand handler reads the target memory file (default:
learnings.md; pass a path to target another). - The Date/tag parser splits entries into hot (≤7 days, preserved) and eligible (>7 days). Both
[domain, type]and legacy backticked `[domain, type]` tag forms are accepted. - The Compaction Writer is dispatched in a single batch with all eligible entries.
- The Stub formatter renders each replacement line as
### [YYYY-MM-DD] Short title [domain, type] — summarized, see archive/YYYY-MM.md. - The Dedup Reviewer performs source-side stub-line match and archive-side header match (date + title + tags on both sides) to prevent duplicates.
- The Archive-sidecar writer appends accepted entries to
archive/YYYY-MM.md, grouped by each entry's calendar month. - The source file is rewritten with stubs replacing the original entries.
- The compact subcommand handler refreshes
.hyperflow/memory/.checksums(a memory-scoped sidecar — distinct from.hyperflow/.checksumswhich the scaffold staleness check owns) and exits with a summary.
Output: N entries compacted into archive/YYYY-MM.md · M stubs rejected as duplicates · source N→M lines. Full protocol in compaction.md.
Flow
- Parse invocation to determine subcommand
- If subcommand missing → list subcommands table above with one-line descriptions
- Execute subcommand
- Print structured result with counts/changes summary
Overview
/hyperflow:cache is the operator interface to project-scoped memory under .hyperflow/memory/. It's the only skill that mutates memory files directly (other skills append via the memory-system protocol). Subcommands cover the full lifecycle: show, search, add, edit, prune, archive, clear, stats, migrate. All operations are project-local — entries never leak across projects.
Prerequisites
.hyperflow/initialized (run/hyperflow:scaffoldif missing — cache creates.hyperflow/memory/on first write but expects the parent dir).- Write access to
.hyperflow/memory/and.hyperflow/memory/archive/. - For
migrateonly: read access to~/.claude/hyperflow-memory.md(legacy global memory).
Instructions
See Subcommands and Subcommand Details above for the full operational spec. Summary:
- Parse the subcommand from the user's invocation (or list subcommands if none given).
- Validate prerequisites for the chosen subcommand (e.g.
clearrequiresAskUserQuestionconfirmation;migraterequires legacy file presence). - Execute the subcommand against
.hyperflow/memory/. - Print structured result with counts and any file-level changes.
Output
Each subcommand prints a compact summary:
show— table of matching entries (Date | Title | Tags | File | Tier).search—file:linematches with snippets, ranked by relevance.add/edit— confirmation line with new entry id and target file.prune/archive/clear— counts of removed/archived/cleared entries plus destination paths.stats— totals + hot/warm/cold breakdown + top-N tags.migrate— count of migrated entries + source legacy file path.off— single-lineMemory writes disabled for this session.
Error Handling
| Failure | Behavior |
|---|---|
.hyperflow/memory/ missing |
Auto-create skeleton (index.md + 5 category files + archive/.gitkeep) on first write; for read-only subcommands, print (no memory yet — invoke /hyperflow:scaffold first). |
| Subcommand unknown | Print subcommands table; suggest closest match via Levenshtein distance. |
add with invalid category |
Reject and list valid categories: learning, decision, pitfall, pattern, convention. |
edit entry id not found |
List 3 closest matches by title slug + date. |
clear without confirmation (headless) |
Refuse and print clear requires interactive confirmation. Do not wipe. |
migrate source file missing |
Print (nothing to migrate — ~/.claude/hyperflow-memory.md not found) and stop. |
