Bonfire Context

This skill loads project session context from .bonfire/index.md to provide continuity across AI coding sessions.

When to Use This Skill

Load this skill when the user:

• •Asks about previous work or decisions
• •References "last time", "previously", "before"
• •Wants to know about blockers or pending issues
• •Asks what the project status is
• •Starts a significant task that might have prior context

Instructions

1. •

   Find the git root: git rev-parse --show-toplevel

2. •

   Check if .bonfire/index.md exists at the git root

3. •

   If it exists, read it to understand:

   • •Current project status and recent work
   • •Active decisions and their rationale
   • •Known blockers or pending issues
   • •Links to relevant specs or documentation
4. •

   Check .bonfire/specs/ if the user asks about implementation specs

5. •

   Check .bonfire/docs/ if the user asks about documented topics

File Structure

.bonfire/
├── index.md          # Main session context (read this first)
├── config.json       # Project settings
├── archive/          # Completed work history
├── docs/             # Topic documentation
└── specs/            # Implementation specs

Important

• •This skill is for reading context, not updating it
• •Session updates happen via /bonfire-end command
• •Don't modify .bonfire/index.md unless explicitly asked
• •If .bonfire/ doesn't exist, the project may not use this pattern
