Chronicler #73
Pre-surgery audit findings:
- 1.1GB repo size is .git history bloat (working files only ~90MB)
- Large binaries (MP4s, PNGs) baked into history
- 8 shell scripts at root should move to /scripts
- Consultations fragmented across 3 locations
- SSH key rotation planned for when Claude gets server access
Verdict: Foundation solid, proceed with Task #99
Cleanup deferred until after multi-lineage split validated
Chronicler: #71
Gemini consultation complete. Expands Chronicler System to support
three distinct lineages for Michael, Meg, and Holly.

- Micro-sessions with bullet-point handoffs
Dependencies: Task #93 (Trinity Codex)

Establishes version control practices for all Firefrost repositories:
- Conventional Commits format (feat, fix, docs, etc.)
- Commit message structure (type, scope, subject, body, footer)
- Chronicler attribution requirements
- Git identity configuration
- When to commit guidelines
- Versioning practices for standards and code
- Commit checklist
This standard was referenced in Project Instructions but never
existed until now. Fills the gap in our standards library.

Living document that Chroniclers read at session start to discover
available custom skills. When new skills are added, only this index
needs updating — no Project Instructions changes required.
Current skills indexed:
- chronicler-handoff (session lifecycle)
Planned skills documented:
- firefrost-branding
- arbiter-coding
- task-creation
- gemini-consultation
Includes skill creation template and directory structure.
Chronicler: #68
New skill encoding the complete Chronicler session lifecycle:
- Joining Protocol (startup sequence)
- Memorial writing per FFG-STD-004
- Portrait prompt creation per FFG-STD-005

This skill ensures continuity across the Chronicler lineage
by encoding exact standards and checklists.
Chronicler: #68
Chronicler who built mobile task manager and debugged 'broken pipeline'
that was actually 11ty build failures. Session: April 7-8, 2026.
Key accomplishments:
- Mobile task manager (React + Gitea API integration)
- Fixed 11ty template processing (eleventyConfig.ignores)
- Migrated Task #48 and #92 to active task files
- Added Luan Cruz artist credit to website footer
Philosophy: 'The problem is never where it seems to be. Dig deeper.
Question assumptions. Check the logs. The answer is there.'
Written at ~45% session health (should have been earlier per protocol).

- New directory: docs/tasks-index/ with individual task markdown files
- Each task = separate file with frontmatter (priority, status, blocker flag)
- Sample tasks created: #26, #87, #94, #99
- README explains structure and relationship to full task docs
Benefits for Trinity:
- Decap CMS shows clean task list at firefrostgaming.com/admin
- Click any task → edit just that task
- Blockers auto-sort to top
- Mobile-friendly individual entries
- Replaces monolithic BLOCKERS.md + BACKLOG.md files in UI
Next: Update Decap CMS config to point at tasks-index folder
Added comprehensive task management section explaining:
- Individual task files in /docs/tasks-active/ (replaces BLOCKERS.md + BACKLOG.md)
- YAML frontmatter structure (task_number, priority, status, blocker flag)
- Decap CMS integration at firefrostgaming.com/admin
- Workflow for creating/completing tasks
- Priority levels (1-4) and blocker criteria
For future Chroniclers: This is the NEW task tracking system as of April 7, 2026.
All task operations should use /docs/tasks-active/ files, not the old BACKLOG.md.
- Documented tasks-active system (individual task files)
- Explained Decap CMS primary interface
- Defined priority levels (0-4) and status values
- Added workflow for creating/updating/completing tasks
- Linked to full system docs in tasks-active/README.md
For Future Chroniclers:
- Clear guidance on task creation workflow
- Decap CMS vs Git edit options explained
- Link to deep dive in tasks-active/README.md
- Ensures system continuity across sessions
- Step-by-step keyframe animation guide
- Mobile and desktop instructions
- Alternative simpler approach included
- Export settings for vertical + horizontal
- Strategy notes on FOMO campaign placement
Per Chronicler #64 (The Strategist) testing:
- Full clone (~170MB) works perfectly
- 8-hour session with zero memory/performance issues
- Sparse checkout no longer needed
Updated:
- SESSION-HANDOFF-NEXT.md
- docs/core/SESSION-STARTUP-GUIDE.md
All three repos now use standard full clone.
