# Refresh Windsurf Chat History Archive

Refreshes the centralized Windsurf chat history archive at `__LOCAL_LLMs/AI_IDE_CHAT_HISTORY/WINDSURF/`.
Auto-discovers new repos, updates symlinks, and re-copies docs + workflows.

## Steps

// turbo

1. Run the refresh script:

```bash
/Users/sd9235/code/mygh/learning_ai_common_plat/__LOCAL_LLMs/AI_IDE_CHAT_HISTORY/WINDSURF/refresh.sh
```

2. Check the refresh log:

```bash
cat /Users/sd9235/code/mygh/learning_ai_common_plat/__LOCAL_LLMs/AI_IDE_CHAT_HISTORY/WINDSURF/.last-refresh.log
```

3. Verify symlinks are valid:

```bash
ls -la /Users/sd9235/code/mygh/learning_ai_common_plat/__LOCAL_LLMs/AI_IDE_CHAT_HISTORY/WINDSURF/ | grep "^l"
```

## Notes

- The script is **idempotent** — safe to run any number of times.
- It auto-discovers repos under `/Users/sd9235/code/mygh/` that have `docs/WINDSURF/` or `.windsurf/workflows/`.
- A **launchd job** runs this daily at 11 PM: `~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.sd9235.windsurf-archive-refresh.plist`.
- Logs: `.last-refresh.log` (stats), `.launchd-stdout.log` / `.launchd-stderr.log` (scheduled run output).

## Manage the scheduled job

```bash
# Check if running
launchctl list | grep windsurf-archive

# Stop
launchctl unload ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.sd9235.windsurf-archive-refresh.plist

# Start
launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.sd9235.windsurf-archive-refresh.plist

# Force run now
launchctl start com.sd9235.windsurf-archive-refresh
```
