brief

separate

Session-start briefing from Origin. Reads the project status file (the /handoff-maintained ledger of Active/Backlog work), then loads identity, preferences, and topic-relevant memories so the agent walks in with context. Surfaces any memories the daemon has flagged for human revision before the session uses them. Invoked as `/brief [topic]`. Call FIRST at session start, before any other Origin verb.

When to use

• Session start — call BEFORE any other Origin tool.
• Major topic shift mid-session.
• User says "catch me up", "what's the background on X", "remind me about Y".
• Mid-session check-in to confirm assumptions.

When not to use

• Specific factual lookup → use `/recall` (more targeted).
• Storing a new memory → use `/capture`.
• End of session → use `/handoff`.
