Individual skill

second-brain-metrics

Record a dated snapshot of the vault's health numbers and compare against previous snapshots so trends are visible. Use this skill for a monthly or quarterly check, when the user asks whether the vault is improving, or asks to track its numbers over time. Do NOT use for a one-off graph analysis, which is second-brain-graph, or for structural repairs.

# Record metrics

A single reading tells you almost nothing. Direction over months is the
information, and nobody remembers what last quarter's orphan rate was.

## Core rule

Four numbers, appended to a dated log, compared against the last entry. Never
