About reset
A skill for resetting an FPF reasoning cycle. It describes archiving a session and clearing active work, permanently deleting FPF data, or returning hypotheses to an earlier review layer.
Key features
- 01Archive a session during soft reset
- 02Optionally move active work to an archive
- 03Delete FPF data in a hard reset
- 04Move hypotheses back for re-evaluation
Use cases
- 01Starting a fresh reasoning session while keeping an archive
- 02Clearing FPF data when explicitly requested
- 03Re-evaluating hypotheses from an earlier layer

Reset the FPF reasoning cycle to start fresh.
Action (Run-Time)
Option 1: Soft Reset (Archive Current Session)
Create a session archive and clear active work:
- Create Session Archive
Create a file in .fpf/sessions/ to record the completed/abandoned session:
# In .fpf/sessions/session-2025-01-15-reset.md
---
id: session-2025-01-15-reset
action: reset
created: 2025-01-15T16:00:00Z
reason: user_requested
---
# Session Archive: 2025-01-15
**Reset Reason**: User requested fresh start
## State at Reset
### Hypotheses
- L0: 2 (proposed)
- L1: 1 (verified)
- L2: 0 (validated)
- Invalid: 1 (rejected)
### Files Archived
- .fpf/knowledge/L0/hypothesis-a.md
- .fpf/knowledge/L0/hypothesis-b.md
- .fpf/knowledge/L1/hypothesis-c.md
### Decision Status
No decision was finalized.
## Notes
Session ended without decision. Hypotheses preserved for potential future reference.
- Move Active Work to Archive (Optional)
If user wants to clear the knowledge directories:
mkdir -p .fpf/archive/session-2025-01-15
mv .fpf/knowledge/L0/*.md .fpf/archive/session-2025-01-15/ 2>/dev/null || true
mv .fpf/knowledge/L1/*.md .fpf/archive/session-2025-01-15/ 2>/dev/null || true
mv .fpf/knowledge/L2/*.md .fpf/archive/session-2025-01-15/ 2>/dev/null || true
- Report to User
## Reset Complete
Session archived to: .fpf/sessions/session-2025-01-15-reset.md
Current state:
- L0: 0 hypotheses
- L1: 0 hypotheses
- L2: 0 hypotheses
Ready for new reasoning cycle. Run `/fpf:propose-hypotheses` to start.
Option 2: Hard Reset (Delete All)
WARNING: This permanently deletes all FPF data.
rm -rf .fpf/knowledge/L0/*.md
rm -rf .fpf/knowledge/L1/*.md
rm -rf .fpf/knowledge/L2/*.md
rm -rf .fpf/knowledge/invalid/*.md
rm -rf .fpf/evidence/*.md
rm -rf .fpf/decisions/*.md
Only do this if explicitly requested by user.
Option 3: Decision Reset (Keep Knowledge)
If user wants to re-evaluate existing hypotheses:
- Move L2 hypotheses back to L1 (re-audit)
- Or move L1 hypotheses back to L0 (re-verify)
# Re-audit: L2 -> L1
mv .fpf/knowledge/L2/*.md .fpf/knowledge/L1/
# Re-verify: L1 -> L0
mv .fpf/knowledge/L1/*.md .fpf/knowledge/L0/
