+## 🕓 Metadata History
+
+This page describes how the LCS Pipeline stores and archives processed metadata for every video clip.
+
+---
+
+### 📦 Post-Upload Archive
+
+Once a clip is successfully uploaded:
+- Its metadata is extracted and normalized
+- The enriched metadata object is saved to a **history store** (flat `.json`)
+
+---
+
+### 📁 Storage Location
+
+```
+/metadata/
+└── history/
+    └── 2025.08.03/
+        ├── shotgun-doublekill.json
+        └── fn-highlight-reel-aug3-video2.json
+```
+
+Each file is named after the output video file (excluding `.mp4`) and contains the full enriched metadata payload.
+
+---
+
+### 🧱 Saved Metadata Includes
+
+| Field           | Description |
+|------------------|-------------|
+| `session_date`   | Parsed from parent folder |
+| `clip_type`      | e.g., `hit`, `montage`, `outtake` |
+| `format`         | `wide` or `vertical` |
+| `highlight`      | From `notes.json` or user input |
+| `tags`           | Auto-cleaned list from `notes.json` |
+| `gag_name`       | Optional alt title |
+| `youtube_url`    | Final published URL |
+| `peertube_url`   | Optional second upload destination |
+
+---
+
+### 🔍 Usage
+
+- Enables video recall by tag or type
+- Supports "already published?" checks before processing
+- Will support dashboard features in future versions
