# Storage Templates
## Overview
Generic template patterns and lifecycle management for structured content storage. Provides reusable templates, maturity progression models, and file naming conventions that work across different storage domains.
## When To Use
- Building knowledge management systems
- Organizing documentation with maturity stages
- Need consistent file naming patterns
- Want template-driven content creation
- Implementing lifecycle-based workflows
## When NOT To Use
- Simple storage without lifecycle or structure needs
## Core Concepts
### Template Types
| Type | Purpose | Maturity | Lifetime |
|------|---------|----------|----------|
| **Evergreen** | Stable, proven knowledge | High | Permanent |
| **Growing** | Active development | Medium | 1-3 months |
| **Seedling** | Early ideas | Low | 1-2 weeks |
| **Reference** | Tool/version-specific | N/A | Until deprecated |
### Maturity Lifecycle
```
seedling → growing → evergreen → archive
↓ ↓ ↓ ↓
1-2 weeks 1-3 months permanent deprecated
```
**Verification:** Run the command with `--help` flag to verify availability.
## Quick Start
### Basic Template Structure
```yaml
---
title: [Content Title]
created: [YYYY-MM-DD]
maturity: seedling|growing|evergreen|reference
tags: [relevant, tags]
---
# [Title]
## Core Content
[Main information]
## Metadata
[Context and attribution]
```
**Verification:** Run the command with `--help` flag to verify availability.
### File Naming Conventions
| Type | Pattern | Example |
|------|---------|---------|
| Evergreen | `topic-name.md` | `functional-core-pattern.md` |
| Growing | `topic-name.md` | `async-patterns.md` |
| Seedling | `YYYY-MM-DD-topic.md` | `2025-12-05-template-idea.md` |
| Reference | `tool-version.md` | `python-3.12-features.md` |
### Domain Applications
Add domain-specific fields to templates:
- **memory-palace**: `palace`, `district` for knowledge organization
- **sanctum**: `scope`, `version` for commit templates
- **spec-kit**: `phase`, `status` for specifications
See `modules/template-patterns.md` for detailed examples.
## Common Patterns
### Promotion Workflow
**Seedling → Growing**:
- Accessed more than once
- Connected to other entries
- Expanded with new insights
**Growing → Evergreen**:
- Proven useful over 3+ months
- Stable, not frequently edited
- Well-connected in system
**Evergreen → Archive**:
- Superseded by newer knowledge
- Technology/approach deprecated
- No longer applicable
### Template Selection Guide
| Stability | Purpose | Template |
|-----------|---------|----------|
| Proven | Long-term | Evergreen |
| Evolving | Active development | Growing |
| Experimental | Exploration | Seedling |
| Versioned | External reference | Reference |
## Integration Pattern
```yaml
# In your skill's frontmatter
dependencies: [leyline:storage-templates]
```
**Verification:** Run the command with `--help` flag to verify availability.
## Detailed Resources
- **Templates**: See `modules/template-patterns.md` for detailed structures
- **Lifecycle**: See `modules/lifecycle-stages.md` for maturity progression
## Exit Criteria
- Template selected for use case
- File naming convention applied
- Maturity stage assigned
- Promotion criteria understood
