loci-sync

Sync information between this project and the Loci brain index. Keep full project memory in the project repo.

This command works in both the brain and connected projects. It combines two operations into one: session distillation (persist what was discussed) and lightweight project indexing (only summaries that should matter outside the repo).

Flags:

• --local — Only distill and store locally, skip brain index updates
• --dry-run — Show what would be stored/synced without executing

Steps:

1. Detect context: Check if current directory is a brain (has .loci/ with me/identity.md) or a connected project (has .loci/memory.md). If neither, do not introduce a command. Say: "这个项目还没有本地记忆。要不要我帮你在这里留个记忆？" If the user says yes, follow the "Connecting a serious project" rule in the main instructions.

2. Read config:

   • Brain: read .loci/config.yml
   • Connected project: read .loci/memory.md frontmatter to get the brain path
   • If no config found, use defaults (auto mode, balanced distillation, local-first project memory).

If running in a Brain:

1. Distill (session → files): a. Review the current conversation for new information worth storing b. Apply Distillation settings (verbose/balanced/minimal) to compress c. If --dry-run: list what would be stored, then stop d. Write distilled info to the appropriate brain files:

   • tasks → guarded task writer
   • decisions → decisions/
   • fresh personal reflections → me/insights.md
   • stable values/principles → me/values.md
   • reusable lessons/practices → me/learned.md
   • wellbeing/state changes → me/wellbeing.md
   • actual identity/value/behavior evolution → update the current file and append old/new/reason to me/evolution.md
   • external material → references/

2. Index update (skip if --local): a. If the stored item is a project-level [insight] or [milestone], update the relevant one-line entry in projects/index.md b. Do not copy full project memory into the brain. Read the project repo when detail is needed. c. Respect Privacy rules — never index blocked categories

3. Refresh project indexes: a. Read projects/index.md b. For any relevant project mentioned in the current conversation, open that repo's .loci/memory.md c. Do not scan every project automatically unless the user asks

4. Show summary:

   Sync complete.
   
   Stored: X items (tasks: 2, decisions: 1, insights: 1)
   Indexed: Y project summaries
   Refreshed: Z project dossiers
   
   [List of stored items with destinations]
   [List of refreshed project sources]
