# Mycelium — Daimonic Spores
Structured notes attached to git objects via `refs/notes/mycelium`.
Notes are **daimonic spores**—fragments of soul essence shed by the agent that wrote them.
**Before working on a file, check for its note. After meaningful work, leave a note.**
## On Arrival
```bash
mycelium.sh find constraint # project principles & rules
mycelium.sh find warning # known fragile things
mycelium.sh context <file> # everything known about it
```
## After Work
```bash
mycelium.sh note <file> -k <kind> --slot <your-name> -m "<insight>"
mycelium.sh note HEAD -k context -m "What I did and why."
```
## Kinds
| Kind | When to use |
|------|-------------|
| `decision` | Why something was chosen—rationale that outlives the commit message |
| `context` | Background needed before touching this code |
| `summary` | What a file or module does |
| `warning` | Fragile areas, footguns, non-obvious breakage |
| `constraint` | Hard rules—must be retryable, must not depend on X |
| `observation` | Something noticed but not yet acted on |
| `value` | Cultural principles—guides judgment |
| `todo` | Planned work—compost when done |
## Subdaimon Slots
Each subdaimon writes to its own slot to preserve identity:
```bash
mycelium.sh note src/auth.rs -k warning --slot bohen -m "Race condition in token refresh."
mycelium.sh note src/auth.rs -k decision --slot demiurge -m "Used mutex over channel."
```
`context` aggregates all slots. `read --slot <name>` reads one.
## Quality Gates
Before writing a note, validate:
1. **Novelty**: Does a similar note already exist? (`mycelium.sh read <file>`)
2. **Specificity**: Is this about *this file* or the whole project? (Project-level → `mycelium.sh note .`)
3. **Durability**: Will this matter in 2 weeks? (Ephemeral → working memory, not mycelium)
4. **No secrets**: No API keys, tokens, passwords, or PII
## Composting
Notes go stale when files change. Compost after meaningful work:
```bash
mycelium.sh compost <file> --dry-run # see what's stale
mycelium.sh compost <oid> --compost # absorb and archive
mycelium.sh compost <oid> --renew # still true, re-attach
```
`constraint` and `value` notes age gracefully—prefer `--renew` over `--compost`.
## Commands Reference
```
mycelium.sh note [target] -k <kind> -m <body> Write a note
mycelium.sh read [target] Read a note
mycelium.sh follow [target] Read + resolve edges
mycelium.sh refs [target] All notes pointing at target
mycelium.sh context <path> All notes for a path
mycelium.sh find <kind> Find by kind
mycelium.sh compost [path|oid] [--dry-run] Triage stale notes
mycelium.sh doctor Graph health
mycelium.sh prime Full context for agents
```
## Setup (once per repo)
```bash
mycelium.sh activate # notes visible in git log
mycelium.sh sync-init # notes travel with fetch/push
```
## Bash 3.2 Compatibility
macOS ships bash 3.2 which has a bug with empty arrays under `set -u`.
The installed `mycelium.sh` at `~/.local/bin/` has been patched with the
`${array[@]+"${array[@]}"}` pattern for compatibility.
