What this skill does

Record a dated snapshot of the vault's health numbers and compare against previous snapshots so trends are visible. Use this skill for a monthly or quarterly check, when the user asks whether the vault is improving, or asks to track its numbers over time. Do NOT use for a one-off graph analysis, which is second-brain-graph, or for structural repairs. A single reading tells you almost nothing. Direction over months is the information, and nobody remembers what last quarter's orphan rate was.

When it triggers

  • Use this skill for a monthly or quarterly check, when the user asks whether the vault is improving, or asks to track its numbers over time.
  • use for a one-off graph analysis, which is second-brain-graph, or for structural repairs.
