Action Summary

Totem is a CLI tool designed to provide a persistent memory and enforcement layer for AI coding agents, addressing their tendency to forget context and repeat architectural mistakes. It automates the creation and enforcement of coding rules by converting plain-English lessons into deterministic linting rules, ensuring consistent adherence to best practices without relying on runtime LLMs. This helps maintain architectural integrity, reduces repetitive review cycles, and prevents recurring errors in AI-assisted development workflows.

What’s Changed

Patch Changes

  • 1c766c2: 1.15.2 ships the archive-in-place durability substrate from #1587 and the new totem lesson archive atomic command.

    Governance durability (closes #1587)

    • totem lesson compile --refresh-manifest — new no-LLM primitive that recomputes compile-manifest.json output_hash from the current compiled-rules.json state. Closes the postmerge inline-archive gap where the no-op compile path only detected input-hash drift. Strict exclusivity with --force.
    • totem lesson compile --force now preserves status, archivedReason, and archivedAt additively on rules whose lessonHash survives to the new output. Transient compile failures (network / rate-limit / manual reject / example-verification / cloud parse) leave the old rule intact instead of silently dropping it. Implemented via the new preserveLifecycleFields helper in core and upsertRule / removeRuleByHash helpers in the CLI compile loop (replace-by-hash on success; remove-on-skipped; unchanged on failed / noop). Dangling-archive guard preserved — rules whose source lesson was deleted are never resurrected.
    • totem lesson archive <hash> [--reason <string>] — new atomic command mirroring totem rule promote. Flips the rule’s status to archived, stamps archivedAt on first transition, preserves archivedAt on reruns, refreshes the manifest, and regenerates copilot + junie exports — all in one call. Matches prefix on lessonHash; duplicate-full-hash collisions surface as data-corruption errors distinct from prefix ambiguity.
    • /postmerge skill doc rewritten to call totem lesson archive directly, retiring the hand-rolled scripts/archive-bad-postmerge-*.cjs pattern.
