# Communication Sources

Communication connectors extract evidence. The agent decides what to promote.

---

## Live Communication

Mattermost is the current live communication connector.

- Fresh output goes to `ai/inbox/mattermost-latest.md`.
- Generated extraction artifacts stay under `scripts/mattermost/generated/`.
- Failed syncs must not update project knowledge.
- Latest-message requests must refresh Mattermost before answering.

---

## Historical Archive

Slack export import is the current historical archive connector.

- Archive evidence stays outside `project-knowledge/`.
- Promote only durable project facts, people context, process rules, or historical architecture lessons.
- Do not promote dated status details unless they explain current context.
