Can I use this skill to find specific project documentation?

Yes, the skill is configured to search the .bonfire/specs/ and .bonfire/docs/ directories if you ask about implementation details or documented topics.

What happens if my project doesn't have a .bonfire folder?

The skill will check for the folder at the git root; if it is missing, the skill will recognize that the project isn't using the Bonfire pattern and will inform the user.

Does this skill update my project files automatically?

No, this specific skill is designed for reading context to provide Claude with background. Session updates typically occur via specific commands or explicit instructions.

How does Bonfire Context help Claude remember previous work?

It reads the .bonfire/index.md file at your project root, which contains a structured summary of your session history, decisions, and current project status.

Productivity & Workflow

Restores project continuity by loading session history, architectural decisions, and ongoing task status from local bonfire files.

Bonfire Context is a specialized skill designed to eliminate context loss in AI-assisted coding sessions. It enables Claude to access a persistent memory store located in a project's .bonfire directory, allowing it to recall previous implementation decisions, pending blockers, and specific task statuses. By reading the index.md and associated specifications, this skill ensures that every new coding session picks up exactly where the last one left off, providing a seamless development experience without the need to manually re-explain the project's current state or history.
