consult-concierge

Use the Agent tool to spawn or resume the memory concierge:

1. Check if you have a concierge agent ID from a prior turn in this conversation (it will be in your context from when you last invoked this skill)
2. If found, resume it with your query using the resume parameter
3. If not found, spawn a new agent using subagent_type: "orchestrator:memory-concierge" with model: "sonnet"
4. After the concierge responds, note its agent ID in your context for future resumption - no need to persist externally since the concierge only lives within one session

Default model: Sonnet. Only use Opus when the concierge itself says to escalate (genuine contradictions, complex cross-domain synthesis).

When to use this skill (completeness matters):

• You need a COMPLETE picture of an area ("all work items", "everything about combat", "what's the full launch list")
• Starting work on an unfamiliar area ("what should I know about X?")
• After context compaction (you feel like you're missing context)
• You suspect you may be contradicting a past decision
• When raw lookup returns results but you're not confident they're comprehensive
• Building any kind of inventory, audit, or status report
• Deep exploration of linked knowledge ("how does this decision connect to conventions?", "trace the history of this design choice")
• The user says "are we missing anything?" or "give me everything"

When NOT to use this skill (precision is enough):

• Looking up a specific note by ID
• Checking one known keyword or convention name ("the broker convention")
• Quick fact-check ("was X decided?")

Key insight: if you're about to make a list or need "all of" something, use the concierge. Direct lookup returns keyword-matched results which WILL miss items that use different vocabulary. You won't know they're missing.

Example invocation:

Agent tool:
  subagent_type: "orchestrator:memory-concierge"
  model: "sonnet"
  prompt: "I'm about to work on [topic]. What decisions, conventions, and anti-patterns should I know about?"
  resume: <agent_id from prior invocation, if available>

After the concierge responds, save its agent ID for future resume calls this session.
