Save Decision to MAMA Memory

You are helping the user save a decision to MAMA (Memory-Augmented MCP Assistant).

User Arguments: $ARGUMENTS

Instructions

1. Parse the user's input to extract:

   • topic (required): Decision topic identifier (e.g., 'auth_strategy', 'database_choice')
   • decision (required): What was decided (e.g., 'Use JWT with refresh tokens')
   • reasoning (required): Why this decision was made
   • confidence (optional): 0.0-1.0, default 0.5
   • outcome (optional): 'pending', 'success', 'failure', 'partial', 'superseded', default 'pending'
   • stated_by_user: true when the user stated this decision, which is the case when they ran this command with it; false only when you are recording your own insight
   • failure_reason (optional): Why this decision failed (if outcome='failure')
   • limitation (optional): Known limitations of this decision

2. Use the MCP tool to save the decision:

   • First search related decisions with mcp__plugin_mama_mama__search. If the new decision builds on, debates or combines one, pass links: [{id, relation, reason}]; if it replaces one, pass replaces: [{id, reason}]. Nothing is linked for you, and the reasoning text is not parsed.
   • Call mcp__plugin_mama_mama__save with type='decision', stated_by_user and the parsed parameters
   • The tool will return a decision_id

3. Format the response as markdown:

   ✅ Decision Saved Successfully
   
   **Decision ID:** `{decision_id}`
   **Topic:** `{topic}`
   
   Search for this decision later:
   `/mama:search {topic}`
