Council Memory Maintenance

Step 1: Check memory health

Call council_memory_status with project_dir set to the current project root directory (absolute path).

If no compaction is recommended, report that memory is healthy and stop.

Step 2: Run curator

Use the Task tool to launch the curator subagent (subagent_type: "the-council:curator") with this prompt:

Compact the council memory in {project_dir}. For each role (strategist, critic, hub): call council_memory_load to see current entries, read the role's log file, identify duplicates/superseded/mergeable entries, then call council_memory_compact with the compacted entries JSON array. Report what you changed.

The curator runs in its own context window — zero cost to this session.

Step 3: Report

Show the user what was compacted and the before/after entry counts.
