+# Guide: Writing & Uploading Skills/Memory for Temporal Workflows
+
+Use the memory service to store context, tool patterns, and solutions that Temporal workflows can retrieve and use.
+
+## Overview
+
+**Three ways to get data into memory:**
+
+1. **Ingest transcripts** (dialog with tool use + results) → system extracts skills
+2. **Direct skill upload** (manual structured skill)
+3. **Git corpus** (reference documentation, no extraction needed)
+
+For Temporal workflows, option **1 (transcripts)** is most powerful: you capture a successful workflow execution, memory system learns the pattern, and future workflows query it.
+
+---
+
+## Format 1: Transcript-Based (Recommended)
+
+Write a conversation showing a workflow using tools successfully. Memory extracts reusable skills.
+
+### File Format
+
+Create JSONL (one JSON object per line):
+
+```jsonl
+{"role":"user","text":"Deploy service foo to prod","timestamp":"2025-01-15T10:00:00Z","source_position":0}
+{"role":"assistant","text":"I'll deploy foo using kubectl","timestamp":"2025-01-15T10:00:01Z","source_position":1}
+{"role":"tool_result","text":"kubectl apply -f foo.yaml\nDeployment foo created","timestamp":"2025-01-15T10:00:02Z","source_position":2}
+{"role":"assistant","text":"Deployment successful","timestamp":"2025-01-15T10:00:03Z","source_position":3}
+```
+
+**Fields:**
+- `role` — `user`, `assistant`, `tool_result`, `system`
+- `text` — actual message/command/result
+- `timestamp` — ISO8601 (e.g., `2025-01-15T10:00:00Z`)
+- `source_position` — line number in original source (for tracking)
+
+### Upload via HTTP
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/memory/ingest \
+  -H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "project": "temporal-workflows",
+    "source": "transcript:slack/deployment-patterns",
+    "ingest_id": "deploy-2025-01-15-abc123",
+    "records": [
+      {
+        "role": "user",
+        "text": "Deploy service foo to prod",
+        "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:00:00Z",
+        "source_position": 0
+      },
+      {
+        "role": "assistant",
+        "text": "I'll deploy foo using kubectl apply",
+        "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:00:01Z",
+        "source_position": 1
+      },
+      {
+        "role": "tool_result",
+        "text": "kubectl apply -f foo.yaml\nDeployment foo created",
+        "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:00:02Z",
+        "source_position": 2
+      }
+    ]
+  }'
+```
+
+**Response:**
+```json
+{
+  "ingest_id": "deploy-2025-01-15-abc123",
+  "status": "pending",
+  "status_url": "/memory/ingest/deploy-2025-01-15-abc123"
+}
+```
+
+Check status:
+```bash
+curl -H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY" \
+  http://localhost:8080/memory/ingest/deploy-2025-01-15-abc123
+```
+
+---
+
+## Format 2: Structured Skill (Direct)
+
+If you want to upload a pre-written skill without going through extraction:
+
+### YAML Format (for manual storage)
+
+Create `skills/temporal-patterns.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+name: "kubernetes_deploy_pattern"
+description: "Safe deployment pattern using kubectl apply with validation"
+when_to_use: "When deploying services to Kubernetes cluster"
+examples:
+  - |
+    kubectl apply -f service.yaml
+    kubectl rollout status deployment/service -n default
+    kubectl get pods -n default
+prerequisites:
+  - "kubectl binary installed"
+  - "kubeconfig configured"
+  - "deployment manifest exists"
+steps:
+  - "Validate manifest: kubectl apply -f service.yaml --dry-run=client"
+  - "Apply: kubectl apply -f service.yaml"
+  - "Monitor: kubectl rollout status deployment/service -n default"
+  - "Verify: kubectl get pods, check for Ready status"
+precautions:
+  - "Never use --force unless necessary"
+  - "Always check diff before applying to prod"
+  - "Rollback plan: kubectl rollout undo deployment/service"
+```
+
+Then ingest as system memory:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/memory/ingest \
+  -H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "project": "temporal-workflows",
+    "source": "skill:manual/kubernetes",
+    "ingest_id": "skill-k8s-deploy-001",
+    "records": [
+      {
+        "role": "system",
+        "text": "SKILL: kubernetes_deploy_pattern\n\nSafe deployment pattern using kubectl apply with validation\n\nWhen to use: When deploying services to Kubernetes cluster\n\nSteps:\n1. Validate manifest: kubectl apply -f service.yaml --dry-run=client\n2. Apply: kubectl apply -f service.yaml\n3. Monitor: kubectl rollout status deployment/service -n default\n4. Verify: kubectl get pods, check for Ready status\n\nPrecautions:\n- Never use --force unless necessary\n- Always check diff before applying to prod\n- Rollback plan: kubectl rollout undo deployment/service",
+        "timestamp": "2025-01-15T10:00:00Z",
+        "source_position": 0
+      }
+    ]
+  }'
+```
+
+---
+
+## Format 3: Git Corpus (Reference Docs)
+
+Documentation (never evidence, read-only for context).
+
+Store in your obsidian-memory repo, then:
+
+```bash
+mem ingest --source git:ssh://[email protected]:2222/rock/poimen-obesdient-memory.git \
+  --project temporal-workflows
+```
+
+(This will be auto-triggered by CI once M3.5.9 is done.)
+
+---
+
+## Querying Skills in Temporal Workflows
+
+### Get all skills for a project
+
+```bash
+curl -H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8080/memory/skills?project=temporal-workflows"
+```
+
+**Response:**
+```json
+{
+  "skills": [
+    {
+      "name": "kubernetes_deploy_pattern",
+      "description": "Safe deployment pattern using kubectl apply with validation",
+      "when_to_use": "When deploying services to Kubernetes cluster"
+    },
+    {
+      "name": "postgres_backup_pattern",
+      "description": "Automated backup with verification",
+      "when_to_use": "Backup Postgres database before migrations"
+    }
+  ],
+  "count": 2
+}
+```
+
+### Get tool context (tool failure context + similar cases)
+
+```bash
+curl -H "apikey: YOUR_API_KEY" \
+  "http://localhost:8080/memory/context?tool=kubectl&error=connection+refused"
+```
+
+Returns:
+- **Tier 1** — Exact match (same error + context)
+- **Tier 2** — Similar symptom (vector search)
+- **Tier 3** — Reference docs (R corpus)
+
+*Note: This endpoint is M3.7.4 (in progress).*
+
+---
+
+## Example: Temporal Activity + Memory Query
+
+```go
+// activity.go
+func QueryMemoryForPattern(ctx context.Context, toolName string, errorMsg string) (string, error) {
+    resp, err := http.Get(fmt.Sprintf(
+        "http://memory-service/memory/context?tool=%s&error=%s",
+        url.QueryEscape(toolName),
+        url.QueryEscape(errorMsg),
+    ))
+    if err != nil {
+        return "", err
+    }
+    defer resp.Body.Close()
+    
+    var result map[string]interface{}
+    json.NewDecoder(resp.Body).Decode(&result)
+    
+    // Use tier 1 (exact match) if available, else tier 2 (symptom), else tier 3 (docs)
+    if tier1, ok := result["tier_1"].(string); ok && tier1 != "" {
+        return tier1, nil
+    }
+    // ... same for tier 2, tier 3
+    
+    return "", nil
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+1. **Source naming** — `source` field identifies where data came from:
+   - `transcript:slack/topic`
+   - `transcript:github/issue-123`
+   - `skill:manual/pattern-name`
+   - `git:ssh://git@.../repo.git`
+   - `doc:obsidian-vault/path/to/note`
+
+2. **Idempotency** — `ingest_id` must be stable (use SHA256 of content):
+   ```bash
+   ingest_id=$(echo "temporal-deploy-pattern-2025-01-15" | sha256sum | cut -d' ' -f1)
+   ```
+
+3. **Batch ingests** — upload multiple transcripts in one request to reduce overhead.
+
+4. **Timestamps** — use workflow execution time, not current time. Helps memory system understand sequence.
+
+5. **Project naming** — use consistent project keys (e.g., `temporal-workflows`, `agent-rust`, `poimen`).
+
+---
+
+## Ingesting from Temporal Directly
+
+**Pseudo-code** (implement in your Temporal activity):
+
+```go
+func IngestWorkflowToMemory(ctx context.Context, execution WorkflowExecution) error {
+    records := []Record{}
+    
+    // Walk through history and extract tool results
+    for _, event := range execution.History.Events {
+        if event.Type == "ActivityCompleted" {
+            records = append(records, Record{
+                Role:      "tool_result",
+                Text:      event.Result,
+                Timestamp: event.Timestamp,
+            })
+        }
+    }
+    
+    // POST to /memory/ingest
+    body := map[string]interface{}{
+        "project": "temporal-workflows",
+        "source": "temporal:workflow/" + execution.WorkflowID,
+        "ingest_id": execution.RunID, // idempotent
+        "records": records,
+    }
+    
+    resp, err := http.Post("http://memory-service/memory/ingest", 
+        "application/json", 
+        jsonBody(body),
+    )
+    // ...
+}
+```
+
+Then, in your workflow, query back:
+
+```go
+func QueryMemoryInWorkflow(ctx context.Context, q string) ([]Result, error) {
+    resp, _ := http.Get(fmt.Sprintf(
+        "http://memory-service/memory/query?project=temporal-workflows&query=%s",
+        url.QueryEscape(q),
+    ))
+    // ...
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Issue | Cause | Fix |
+|---|---|---|
+| `401 unauthorized` | Missing apikey header | Add `-H "apikey: YOUR_KEY"` |
+| `202` then status `pending` forever | Ingest worker not running | Check `mem serve` is running with DB connection |
+| Skills not appearing | M4.1 (extraction) not implemented yet | Use Format 2 (direct skill) for now |
+| Rate limited (429) | Hit limit for project | Check rate limit, wait or use different apikey |
+| Duplicate `ingest_id` | Same payload ingested twice | Intentional (idempotency); returns same job_id |
+
+---
+
+## Timeline
+
+| Task | Status | Impact |
+|---|---|---|
+| M3.5.2 (ingest endpoint) | ✅ | Upload transcripts now |
+| M3.5.5 (skills endpoint) | ✅ | Query skills now |
+| M4.1 (skill extraction) | 🟡 | Automatic extraction in progress |
+| M3.7.4 (context endpoint) | ⬜ | Tier-1 lookup not yet available |
+| M3.7.8 (symptom projection) | ⬜ | Tier-2 vector lookup not yet available |
+
+**Actionable now:** Formats 1 & 2, endpoints work. Extract by hand or via M4.1 when ready.
