Memory Recall Protocol

Use this when the user's question may relate to past memory. Three-step fallback: ROOT.md O(1) lookup → manifest LLM selection → qmd search.

Step 1: ROOT.md Triage (O(1) — always try first)

Check ROOT.md Topics Index for the query topic.

Direct match found → read the referenced file (knowledge/, daily log date, etc.). Done.
Partial match / related topic found → read referenced file, check if it answers the query. Done if yes.
No match at all → proceed to Step 2.

Decision rule: If Topics Index contains a keyword within 1 semantic hop of the query, it's a match. "배포" matches "deployment". "CI/CD" matches "github-actions".

Step 2: Manifest-Based LLM Selection (when ROOT.md is insufficient)

Use this ONLY when ROOT.md Topics Index has no relevant match but you suspect memory may exist (e.g., the user references something that sounds familiar, or the topic is cross-domain).
