Context Directory Refresh

Detect drift in .arkhe/roadmap/ context files and regenerate them using a hybrid format (condensed summary + references to authoritative docs).

Arguments

Parse from $ARGUMENTS:

Mode	Description
init	Scaffold .arkhe/roadmap/ with all 3 files from scratch
check	Detect drift only — report staleness, don't write
all	Regenerate all 3 context files
project	Regenerate only project.md
architecture	Regenerate only architecture.md
documents	Regenerate only documents.md
(none)	Run check, then ask which files to refresh

Step 1: Run Drift Detection

Run the detection script:

python3 ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/refresh/scripts/detect_context_drift.py .

Parse the JSON output. Present a drift report table:

## Context Directory Status

| File | Exists | Staleness | Days | Commits Since | feat/fix |
|------|--------|-----------|------|---------------|----------|
| project.md | Yes/No | fresh/aging/stale/very_stale | N | N | N |
| architecture.md | Yes/No | ... | ... | ... | ... |
| documents.md | Yes/No | ... | ... | ... | ... |

New modules not in architecture.md: {list or "none"}

For check mode: Stop here. Present the report and suggest which files need attention.

Step 2: Context Discovery

For init, all, or single-file modes, run the shared context discovery protocol from CONTEXT_DISCOVERY.md. Gather:

• From README.md: project purpose, target users
• From CLAUDE.md: constraints, conventions, tech stack
• From build files: tech stack detection via TECH_STACK_DETECTION.md
• From docs/**/*.md: documentation inventory
• From module globs: module inventory with file counts
• From docs/adr/**/*.md: ADR titles and status
• From arkhe/specs/*/spec.md: spec pipeline

Step 3: Generate Files

Generate each requested file using the hybrid format below. See WORKFLOW.md for detailed generation protocol per file.

Hybrid Format Template

# {Title}
_Auto-generated by /roadmap:refresh on {date}. Edit freely — regenerate with `/roadmap:refresh {file}`._

## Summary
{3-5 bullet points, <300 tokens — the essential facts}

## Details
{Structured data: tables, lists}

## References
{Pointers to authoritative docs}
- `{doc_path}` — {one-line description}

Generation Sources

File	Primary Sources
project.md	README.md, CLAUDE.md, gap analyses, existing project.md
architecture.md	Build files, module globs, ADRs, CLAUDE.md architecture section
documents.md	Phase 5 doc scan results, spec files, gap analyses, ADRs

Step 4: Confirm and Write

Before writing each file:

1. Show current content (if exists) or "Does not exist"
2. Show proposed new content
3. Ask: "Write this to {context_dir}/{filename}?"

Create the .arkhe/roadmap/ directory if it doesn't exist.

Never overwrite without confirmation.
