Second Brain Audit

Category: General  ·  Sub-category: knowledge-mgmt  ·  Last updated:
type:audit
Audit any second brain, notes folder, or agent memory for facts that have quietly stopped being true, then fix the worst one so it stops recurring. Works on a wiki, a single notes file, daily notes, or a non-markdown tool, and adapts the fix to whichever it finds. Checks every current-sounding claim in whatever the agent loads each session against the freshest evidence, and separates contradicted claims from unsupported ones. Use when an assistant gives an outdated answer, when notes or memory files may be stale, when a vault needs checking for contradictions, or when someone asks how to stop a second brain from rotting, mentions memory rot, or asks about state versus event.

From the source SKILL.md

Notes rot in a specific way. Nothing is corrupted and nothing goes missing: a fact simply stops being true, the note keeps saying it, and nothing raises a hand.
