# /curate
Power-user audit of Wenlan pending surfaces. Daily flow should stay light:
`/brief` shows the top pending revisions and `/handoff` previews recent pending
captures. Use `/curate` only when the user asks to walk the queue.
## Safety protocol
Perform no mutation until the user replies. Ambiguous replies do not mutate.
Cancellation, no reply, or unclear syntax is a no-op.
Render at most four items at a time. Number every item. Ask for explicit action
syntax:
```text
1 accept
2 dismiss
3 skip
4 edit: <replacement text>
```
Do not rely on hidden pagination state across turns. After applying a batch,
re-list before showing another batch.
## `/curate revisions`
Use the local CLI, not MCP, because revision actions must key on the exact
`revision_source_id`.
Resolve `wenlan`:
```bash
if command -v wenlan >/dev/null 2>&1; then
W="$(command -v wenlan)"
elif [ -x "$HOME/.wenlan/bin/wenlan" ]; then
W="$HOME/.wenlan/bin/wenlan"
else
echo "wenlan not found"
exit 127
fi
"$W" --format json curate
```
- If `wenlan` is missing, tell the user to run `/init`.
+ If `wenlan` is missing, tell the user to run `/setup`.
The JSON array contains:
- `revision_source_id`: staged revision id; action key for accept/dismiss.
- `target_source_id`: original memory id; context only.
- `content`: revised text.
- `source_agent`: proposer.
- `original`: current text when available.
- `diff`: ready-made OLD/NEW preview when available.
Render up to four revisions:
```text
Pending revisions:
1. revision_source_id: <rev_id>
target: <target_source_id>
proposed: "<content>"
diff:
<diff or "(original unavailable)">
Reply with: 1 accept, 1 dismiss, 1 skip
```
Apply only explicit actions:
```bash
"$W" curate accept <revision_source_id>
"$W" curate dismiss <revision_source_id>
```
`accept` replaces the original memory with that named revision. `dismiss`
unstages the false revision link and keeps both memories as independent rows.
`skip` does nothing.
## `/curate captures`
If the user names a space, parse `space:<name>` and pass it to
`mcp__wenlan__list_pending`. Otherwise leave `space` off so the audit covers
all pending captures.
Call:
```text
mcp__wenlan__list_pending(limit=50, space="<only when user named one>")
```
Render up to four:
```text
Pending captures:
1. <source_id> <memory_type> <source_agent>
"<content>"
Reply with: 1 accept, 1 reject, 1 skip, 1 edit: <replacement text>
```
Apply only explicit actions:
- `accept`: `mcp__wenlan__confirm_memory(memory_id="<source_id>")`
- `reject`: `mcp__wenlan__forget(memory_id="<source_id>")`
- `skip`: no call
- `edit: <replacement>`:
1. `mcp__wenlan__capture(content="<replacement>", supersedes="<source_id>")`
2. `mcp__wenlan__forget(memory_id="<source_id>")`
Reject and edit delete the original pending capture, so require the numbered
item and action verb in the same reply.
## Bare `/curate`
Default to `/curate revisions`. Revisions are the conflict surface that most
often needs human judgment. Mention `/curate captures` only as an opt-in audit.
## When not to use
- Specific lookup: use `/recall`.
- One-off correction: use `/capture` with the corrected fact.
