memory-log-render
Convert a consumer's
.log.jsonl into a readable log.md Markdown file. The rendered view uses greppable line prefixes and groups events by date.
When to Use
- On demand: user asks "show me the log" or "render the activity log"
- After bulk operations: post-ingest or post-lint when the log has grown
- As part of
: regenerate the rendered view if stalememory-lint --fix
Parameters
--consumer (optional)
Consumer ID. Resolved via ADR-021 D4 precedence: explicit > wrapper > auto-detect.
--tail (optional, default: all)
Only render the last N entries. Useful for large logs.
--since (optional)
Only render entries after this ISO 8601 date.
--output (optional)
Override output path. Defaults to sibling of
.log.jsonl → log.md (e.g., .aiwg/research/.log.jsonl → .aiwg/research/log.md).
Operation
- Resolve consumer — determine which log to render.
- Load topology — read
path from consumer'smemory.topology.log
.manifest.json - Read JSONL — parse each line as JSON. Skip malformed lines (warn in output).
- Group by date — cluster entries by
date portion.ts - Render Markdown — for each entry, produce:
## [2026-04-14] ingest | anthropic-2024-constitutional.pdf Touched 3 pages: anthropic.md, constitutional-ai.md, summaries/2024-constitutional-ai.md. Duration: 14.2s. No contradictions.
- Write output — overwrite the
file (this is a generated view, not an append).log.md - Log event — append a
entry tolog-render

Line Prefix Convention
Every operation line starts with
## [YYYY-MM-DD] <op> | <subject> — this makes the rendered log greppable:
grep "^## \[" .aiwg/research/log.md | tail -5 grep "ingest" .aiwg/research/log.md
