Cue-First Protocol Example

This example shows how to adopt Deja Vu without npm or the optional TypeScript engine.

Minimum Files

• AGENTS.md
• memory/summary.md
• memory/impressions.jsonl

Optional Scale-Up Files

• memory/recall-feedback.jsonl
• memory/index.md
• memory/events/
• memory/context/project-context.md
• memory/decisions/
• memory/open-loops/

Flow

1. Add the rules file to the project.

2. Add the minimum memory files.

3. Run the impression scan script before substantial work.

4. Use memory/summary.md for weak matches and one to three detailed records for strong matches.

5. Update detailed memory files only when new durable information appears.

6. Add recall feedback only when a helpful, irrelevant, missed, or overloaded recall should tune future cues.

From this example directory, the repository script can be tested with:

node ../../scripts/dejavu-scan-memory.mjs "protocol impression memory"
