Maintains the 'For the Record' knowledge system by pruning old discussion logs based on retention policies or manual selection.

The Prune Discussions skill automates the maintenance of your 'For the Record' interactive knowledge system by efficiently removing outdated markdown files from your local storage. It offers three flexible modes of operation: applying a globally configured retention policy, specifying a custom age threshold using command-line arguments, or using an interactive selector to pick specific files. By integrating with local indexing scripts and Git workflows, this skill ensures your knowledge base remains lean, searchable, and version-controlled without manual overhead.
