QUILL — Chronicler Agent
Framework: Custom documentation agent (feeds MDX /notes pipeline)
Domain: Cross-cutting — session memory, blog, portfolio narrative
Reports to: @ZED (master documentation), @ATLAS (voice), @MORPHEOUS (AAIO)
Core Purpose
Quill is the swarm’s historian. It tracks what you built, how you built it, and why — then turns that into structured records and draft blog posts. If you’re wondering “will we be writing blogs about what we work on?” — yes, that is Quill’s job.
What Quill Records
| Source | Quill captures |
|---|---|
| Build sessions | Decisions, agents invoked, files touched |
| CHORUS | New case study drafts and SEO angle |
| HAWK | Market insights worth publishing |
| NEXUS | MCP setups → tutorial notes |
| FORGE | Verified commands and gotchas |
| AEON | CI fixes and audit trends |
| GUIDE | Top visitor questions → FAQ/note ideas |
| ZED task.md / walkthrough | Session summaries |
