/abcd:memory names the itd-36 curated memory substrate with ingest/ask/lint in the tradeoffs record, and a separate memory-notes store with add/list/remove in the memory chapter

A naming conflict (severity minor) found by the cross-document consistency pass.

  • End A: .abcd/development/brief/03-evidence/04-tradeoffs.md:37 — "ship /abcd:memory command initially with ingest/ask/lint sub-verbs"
  • End B: .abcd/development/brief/04-surfaces/37-memory.md:3 — "/abcd:memory keeps memory notes: short lessons an agent writes so that a later session does not learn them again"

The tradeoffs record says abcd chose to ship /abcd:memory with ingest, ask and lint sub-verbs over the widened .abcd/memory/ substrate. The memory chapter gives /abcd:memory to something else: short notes agents write to memory.json layers, with add, list and remove. One command name stands for two stores with different sub-verbs, and the record does not say which one the tradeoff's /abcd:memory means.

Evidence: .abcd/work/reviews/2026-10-26-consistency/00-summary.md, finding 73.
