Review completes the capture loop
Captured thoughts that are never reviewed are effectively still lost. The capture habit preserves raw material; the review habit transforms it into usable knowledge. Without review, your capture system becomes a graveyard of good intentions.
The weekly review as safety net
A weekly review catches anything your daily capture missed — it is the redundancy layer that keeps your entire epistemic system trustworthy.
Trigger conditions for schema review
Define specific signals that should prompt you to re-evaluate a schema.
Proactive schema evolution
Do not wait for failure to update schemas — regularly review and refine them.
Graph maintenance is ongoing
Periodically review and clean your graph — remove dead links and add missing connections.
Periodic integration reviews
Set aside time specifically to look for connections between your schemas. Integration does not happen automatically — the connections between what you know in one domain and what you know in another remain invisible until you deliberately sit down and look for them. A periodic integration review is a scheduled appointment with your own knowledge system, dedicated not to learning anything new but to finding the links, tensions, and structural parallels between what you already know.
The trigger audit
Regularly review your triggers to ensure they are still relevant and well-calibrated.
Agent coordination review
Periodically assess how well your agents work together as a system.
The output review
Periodically review your outputs to assess quality trends and identify improvement areas.
The quarterly review
Quarterly reviews evaluate strategic direction and make course corrections.
The annual review
An annual review assesses the year as a whole and sets direction for the next.
Reflection questions that work
What went well what did not what will you do differently.
Reflection on successes too
Understanding what you did right is as valuable as understanding what went wrong.
Review your systems not just your actions
The systems that produced your results deserve as much review as the results themselves.
Review is the meta-habit that improves all other habits
A solid review practice is the single most powerful habit for continuous improvement.
The bi-annual values review
Twice a year formally review your values and their ranking.
