mms

Objective

Show a concise snapshot of the Memory Mason knowledge base state.

This command is operational only. Do not write /mms, /memory-mason:mms, or their execution chatter back into the vault.

Path Resolution

Before any other reasoning, resolve vault config in this priority order:

1. Project ./.env
2. Project ./memory-mason.json
3. Global ~/.memory-mason/.env
4. Global ~/.memory-mason/config.json

Resolve:

• {vault}: absolute path to the Obsidian vault
• {subfolder}: plugin-managed subfolder inside the vault

Use the source that provides the vault path.

Subfolder rules:

• If the vault path comes from an .env file, use MEMORY_MASON_SUBFOLDER from that same file when present, otherwise default to ai-knowledge.
• If the vault path comes from memory-mason.json or ~/.memory-mason/config.json, use its subfolder.

Do not claim config is missing until you have attempted all four locations above. If none provide a vault path, fail fast with an explicit error that names every location checked.

Use these paths:

• State file: {vault}/{subfolder}/_meta/state.json
• Manifest file: {vault}/{subfolder}/_meta/manifest.json
• Session context: {vault}/{subfolder}/_meta/context.md
• Build log: {vault}/{subfolder}/_meta/log.md
• Atlas: {vault}/{subfolder}/atlas/
• Concepts: {vault}/{subfolder}/concepts/
• Synthesis: {vault}/{subfolder}/synthesis/
• Raw captures: {vault}/{subfolder}/_raw/
• Index: {vault}/{subfolder}/index.md

Steps

1. Read {vault}/{subfolder}/_meta/state.json if it exists.

1.5 Read {vault}/{subfolder}/_meta/manifest.json if it exists.

2. Count files with glob:

• {vault}/{subfolder}/concepts/*.md -> concept count
• {vault}/{subfolder}/synthesis/*.md -> synthesis count
• {vault}/{subfolder}/atlas/*.md -> MOC count, including home.md
• Count raw capture entries: glob immediate subdirectories in {vault}/{subfolder}/_raw/. Each date folder = 1 raw capture entry.

2.5 For each raw capture entry in {vault}/{subfolder}/_raw/:

• Sum the sizes of numeric chunk files such as 001.md, 002.md, and so on.
• Ignore meta.json for size calculations.
• Record {YYYY-MM-DD}/ plus total size.
• Identify entries over 500KB (524288 bytes).

3. From state.json, read:

• total_cost_usd if present
• ingested entries and each compiled_at timestamp
• capture_metrics if present:
  • capture_count
  • total_raw_tokens
  • total_stored_tokens
  • total_savings_tokens
  • total_savings_percent
  • last_capture_at
  • last_capture.source
  • last_capture.raw_tokens
  • last_capture.stored_tokens
  • last_capture.savings_tokens
  • last_capture.savings_percent

3.2 Determine token economics status.

• If capture_metrics is missing, invalid, or capture_count is 0, report token economics as not tracked yet and use zero totals with never for last capture.
• Otherwise report the cumulative totals from capture_metrics.

3.5 From _meta/manifest.json, read:

• total tracked source count (sources object size)
• each source entry hash and compiled_at timestamp
• any source paths that no longer exist on disk

4. Determine the most recent compile timestamp from ingested entries.

• If state.json has no ingested entries but _meta/manifest.json exists, use the most recent manifest compiled_at.

5. Count uncompiled raw captures.

• Uncompiled means a raw capture folder exists in _raw/ but is not present in the ingested map.

5.5 Identify large raw captures.

• List any raw capture over 500KB with its folder name and size.
• If total _raw/ directory size exceeds 2MB, flag it.
• If a raw capture folder's total exceeds 2MB, flag it as oversized.

5.6 Determine manifest status.

• Report present when _meta/manifest.json exists and parses successfully.
• Report missing when it does not exist.
• Report tracked source count.
• If manifest source paths are recorded but missing on disk, mark manifest status as stale references.

5.7 Determine session context status.

• If {vault}/{subfolder}/_meta/context.md exists, read its frontmatter updated timestamp.
• Compare context.md updated against the most recent compile timestamp.
• Report fresh when context.md is updated at or after the most recent compile timestamp.
• Report stale when context.md exists but is older than the most recent compile timestamp.
• Report missing when context.md does not exist.

6. Read the first 5 data rows from {vault}/{subfolder}/index.md as preview.

• Keep the header and first five article rows.

7. Compute knowledge graph metrics:

• For each concept page, count outbound [[...]] wikilinks in the body (exclude frontmatter, exclude {subfolder}/_raw/ source references).
• Compute average outbound wikilinks per concept page.
• Count concept pages with zero outbound wikilinks (isolated concepts).
• Count concept pages containing [!contradiction] callouts (unresolved contradictions).
• Count concept pages containing [!gap] callouts (knowledge gaps).
• Count bare slug wikilinks such as [[foo]] across knowledge articles and the root index.md (short-form wikilinks).
• Count wikilinks like [[concepts/foo]], [[atlas/foo]], [[synthesis/foo]], or [[_raw/...]] that lack the {subfolder}/ prefix across knowledge articles and the root index.md (missing subfolder prefix).
• Count wikilinks that start with a subfolder prefix OTHER than {subfolder}/ across knowledge articles and the root index.md (cross-project refs).

7.5 Count concept page status field values from frontmatter across all concept pages in {vault}/{subfolder}/concepts/. Tally: seedling count, growing count, evergreen count. Treat missing or invalid status as seedling.

Report Format

Return status exactly like this:

## Knowledge Base Status

**Vault:** {vaultPath}/{subfolder}
**Articles:** {concept count} concepts, {synthesis count} synthesis, {moc count} MOCs
**Raw captures:** {total} total, {uncompiled} uncompiled
**Last compiled:** {ISO timestamp or "never"}
**Manifest:** {present/missing} ({tracked source count} sources)
**Context:** {fresh/stale/missing} ({updated timestamp or "never"})

## Token Economics
- Captures tracked: {capture count or 0}
- Raw tokens: {total raw tokens or 0}
- Stored tokens: {total stored tokens or 0}
- Savings: {total savings percent or 0}% ({total savings tokens or 0} tokens)
- Last capture: {last capture source or "never"} ({last capture timestamp or "never"})
- Last capture savings: {last capture savings percent or 0}% ({last capture raw tokens or 0} -> {last capture stored tokens or 0} tokens)

## Knowledge Graph
- Avg wikilinks per concept: {N.N}
- Isolated concepts (0 links): {count}
- Unresolved contradictions: {count}
- Knowledge gaps: {count}
- Short-form wikilinks: {count}
- Missing subfolder prefix: {count}
- Cross-project refs: {count}

## Maturity
- Seedling: {seedling count}
- Growing: {growing count}
- Evergreen: {evergreen count}
- Total concepts: {total}

## Recent Index (first 5 entries)
{index preview}

## Health
{healthy / N raw captures need compilation}
- Manifest: {present / missing / stale references}
- Context: {fresh / stale / missing}
- Token economics: {tracked / not tracked yet}

## Raw Capture Sizes
{table: folder | size | status}
- status: "OK" if under 500KB, "LARGE" if over 500KB, "⚠ VERY LARGE" if over 2MB

**Total _raw/:** {total size in MB}
{If any capture is LARGE: "Tip: Run /mmc on recent captures to keep the vault current."}

Health Rule

• If uncompiled is 0, report healthy.
• If uncompiled is greater than 0, report N raw captures need compilation.
