Capture the current state of a working thread or conversation into a single coherent Basic Memory note — synthesize where it landed, don't append a log. On re-capture, rewrite the same note in place instead of duplicating. Use mid-thread or end-of-thread when decisions, insights, or context are worth preserving.
