Provenance Skill
Trace knowledge artifact lineage to sources.
Execution Steps
Given /provenance <artifact>:
Step 1: Read the Artifact
Tool: Read
Parameters:
file_path: <artifact-path>
Look for provenance metadata:
- Source references
- Session IDs
- Dates
- Related artifacts
Step 2: Trace Source Chain
# Check for source metadata in the file
grep -i "source\|session\|from\|extracted" <artifact-path>
# Search for related transcripts
ao forge search "<artifact-name>" 2>/dev/null
Step 3: Build Lineage Chain
Transcript (source of truth)
↓
Forge extraction (candidate)
↓
Human review (promotion)
↓
Pattern recognition (tier-up)
↓
Skill creation (automation)
Step 4: Write Provenance Report
# Provenance: <artifact-name>
## Current State
- **Tier:** <0-3>
- **Created:** <date>
- **Citations:** <count>
## Source Chain
1. **Origin:** <transcript or session>
- Line/context: <where extracted>
- Extracted: <date>
2. **Promoted:** <tier change>
- Reason: <why promoted>
- Date: <when>
## Related Artifacts
- <related artifact 1>
- <related artifact 2>
Step 5: Report to User
Tell the user:
- Artifact lineage
- Original source
- Promotion history
- Related artifacts
Finding Orphans
/provenance --orphans
Find artifacts without source tracking:
# Files without "Source:" or "Session:" metadata
for f in .agents/learnings/*.md; do
grep -L "Source\|Session" "$f" 2>/dev/null
done
Finding Stale Artifacts
/provenance --stale
Find artifacts where source may have changed:
# Artifacts older than their sources
find .agents/ -name "*.md" -mtime +30 2>/dev/null
Key Rules
- Every insight has a source - trace it
- Track promotions - know why tier changed
- Find orphans - clean up untracked knowledge
- Maintain lineage - provenance enables trust
