# groove-utilities-memory-promises

Use $ARGUMENTS as the promise text if provided, or a flag:
- `--list`: show all open promises
- `--resolve <N>`: mark promise N as resolved

## Outcome

Deferred items from a session are captured before they are forgotten, or existing open promises are reviewed and resolved.

## Acceptance Criteria

- New promise captured with date and optional context
- `--list` shows all open promises clearly numbered
- `--resolve N` marks promise N as resolved

## Task backend

Read `tasks.backend` from `.groove/index.md`. Promises are tracked as tasks in the configured backend. If no task backend is configured (`tasks.backend: none`), tell the user to run `/groove-utilities-task-install` first.

Promises are stored as tasks under a shared "Groove Memory" milestone → "Promises" epic hierarchy. This keeps them organised and out of the main work task list.

### Ensure parent hierarchy

Before any operation, resolve or create the parent epic:

1. Find or create the **Groove Memory** milestone:
   - `beans list -t milestone --search "Groove Memory" -q` — if output is non-empty, use the first ID; otherwise `beans create "Groove Memory" -t milestone` and capture the new ID
2. Find or create the **Promises** epic under that milestone:
   - `beans list -t epic --parent <milestone-id> --search "Promises" -q` — if non-empty, use first ID; otherwise `beans create "Promises" -t epic --parent <milestone-id>` and capture the new ID

Use the Promises epic ID as `<parent-id>` for all promise tasks.

### `--list`

1. Resolve `<parent-id>` (see above)
2. `beans list --parent <parent-id> -s todo -t task`
3. Display as numbered list: `1. [<id>] <title>` — position number for `--resolve N`, beans ID in brackets
4. If empty: print "No open promises."

### `--resolve <N>`

1. Resolve `<parent-id>`; run `beans list --parent <parent-id> -s todo -t task`
2. Find the Nth item; if not found: print "No open promise #N" and exit
3. `beans update <id> -s completed`
4. Confirm: "Promise #N resolved."

### Default — add a promise

1. Resolve `<parent-id>` (see above)
2. Get promise text from $ARGUMENTS if provided; otherwise ask: "What's being deferred?"
3. Optionally ask: "Any context? (enter to skip)"
4. `beans create "<text>" -t task --parent <parent-id> -s todo -p deferred`
5. If context given: `beans update <id> -d "<context>"`
6. Confirm: "Promise captured: [<id>] <text>"

## Constraints

- Read `tasks.backend` from `.groove/index.md` at the start of every invocation
- Requires a configured task backend — if `tasks.backend: none`, prompt user to install one
- Never auto-capture promises without user confirmation — always explicit
- Milestone/epic parent hierarchy is idempotent — always check before creating; never create duplicates
- Use `-s todo` for open, `-s completed` for resolved; `-p deferred` to signal not active work
- Do not resolve all promises automatically; resolve one at a time unless user asks for `--resolve-all`
- `--resolve-all` requires confirmation: "Resolve all N open promises?" before proceeding
