Where is the progress log stored?

The log is stored locally in your project directory at docs/progress.md, making it easy to track via version control.

Does the journal file get too large over time?

The skill includes an automated archiving feature that triggers when the journal exceeds 50 entries, moving older records to a separate archive file to keep the main log performant.

Which skills automatically log to the journal?

Most core Arc skills, including ideate, build, implement, test, and audit, automatically append entries to ensure a complete development history.

Can I add my own notes to the journal?

Yes, you can use the /arc:progress command followed by your text to append manual insights or decisions directly to the journal.

소개

The Progress Journal skill provides a lightweight, automated tracking system for Claude Code sessions by maintaining a structured log in docs/progress.md. It captures essential metadata including tasks performed, architectural decisions, file changes, and project status across the entire Arc plugin suite. This ensures long-term context retention, allowing developers to resume work seamlessly after breaks, review historical decisions, and keep a clean audit trail of AI-driven development activities without manual documentation overhead.
