# Chronicle
Chronicle separates observed events from the intent only the person or agent doing the
work can state. Capture requires installed, active hooks; check coverage before assuming
the trace is complete.
## Resume first
Run `chron resume` in the project root. Read unresolved questions and state declarations.
Then record what you are taking up:
```bash
chron open "continue search" --state "empty results are intentional staging"
```
If the CLI is missing, install with
`pipx install 'git+https://github.com/AntreasAntoniou/chronicle.git'`. Installing the skill
does not install hooks or establish capture coverage.
## Five moments worth recording
| Command | What to record |
| --- | --- |
| `chron open` | Your belief about current state and what you are taking up |
| `chron arm` | The operation, intent, reversibility class, and verified restore path |
| `chron decision` | The choice, reason, and any ambiguous state that is intentional |
| `chron landed` | A verified external change with resource/version and rollback references |
| `chron close` | Where work stopped, what remains undone, and open questions |
Before a destructive or bulk operation:
```bash
chron arm "replace the staging index" \
--intent "load the verified replacement" \
--class R1 \
--restore "snapshot path and tested restoration command" \
--verified "restoration tested on a disposable copy"
```
R0 is fully reversible, R1 needs a recovery artifact, and R2 is irreversible. An ARM does
