# cortex-archive-ingest
## When to use
Use when the user drops **any** raw document into the session, or says "ingest
this transcript", "ingest this RFP", "ingest this brief", "ingest this email",
"ingest this design doc", "ingest this client spec", "ingest this contract",
"add this to project memory", "capture this call", "remember this decision", or
"log these stakeholders".
Document types in scope: client specs, contracts, regulatory/compliance
documents, technical specs from stakeholders, meeting transcripts, interview
recordings, call notes, RFCs/architecture docs, existing codebase documentation,
user research and feedback. **One skill, internal type routing** by
`archive/types/*.yaml` — a new document type never requires a new skill.
**Boundaries.** Sibling of `specflow-ingest`, which owns requirement-shaped
sources destined for the spec trees. This skill replaces the retired
`cortex-ingest` (atlas-only ingestion is now the `atlas` extraction strategy
inside this skill).
## What you do
You turn any ingested document into durable, authoritative Cortex memory under
`.cortex/archive/` (schema §4.4), then — only if the user asks — draft a
change plan that proposes downstream rule/decision updates through the
existing pulse gate (schema §4.5/§4.5.1). **Ingested documents are
authoritative by definition** — the user chose to ingest them — so extraction
writes structured content directly into the document's own `extracted/`
directory. Pulse is touched only at the yes/no
