Memory Session
Run one guided memory session and bank it properly: pick the theme the timeline is hungriest for, follow the thread of feeling through the recorded conversation, and file the session with the follow-up questions that keep the next one alive. Locks the theme and question set FIRST, then captures the session in the teller's own words, then files it in the store with the threads to pull next time. Use for memory sessions, filing an interview with a parent or grandparent, memoir capture, and 'what should I ask next time'.
How it runs
| # | Step | Who runs it | What happens |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Scope the session | Planner | theme from the timeline's gaps, question set, capture rules |
| 2 | Capture the session | Developer | session record in the teller's own words under sessions/ |
| 3 | File the session | Developer | store record updated, chapter-worthy moments, follow-up threads |
| 4 | Evaluate | Reviewer | Grade the deliverable against every acceptance criterion. All pass → finish; any fail → loop back and fix the gap. |
| 5 | Finish | Developer | All acceptance criteria met. Stamp a short summary and report DONE. |
Say something like "file the memory session" or "run a memory session" or "we recorded a session with mom" or "what should I ask next time" or "bank the interview" in chat to start it.
