Public

actually in my WIP skill i'm seeing a significantly better output if i tell it to first group commits into "narratives"

## Narrative Tracking

**Don't build the graph as you explore.** First, collect commits into narratives.

Maintain `narratives.md` as you explore:

1. For each significant commit, read `narratives.md`
2. Ask: "Does this commit evolve an existing narrative?"
3. If yes: append the commit to that narrative's section
4. If no: add a new narrative section

Example `narratives.md`:
```
## Cache Strategy
- a1b2c3d: Add in-memory cache
- e4f5g6h: Cache invalidation issues
- i7j8k9l: Switch to Redis

## API Rate Limiting
- m1n2o3p: Add basic throttling
- ...
```

**Before building the graph**, take a critical pass over `narratives.md`:
- Merge narratives that are essentially the same evolving thing
- Ensure each narrative clearly explains how one independent piece evolved
- If two narratives converge or branch from each other, note the connection

After consolidating, build the graph - one decision chain per narrative, with links where narratives connect.
