Session Resume Skill

Helps agents quickly understand where work left off when starting a new session.

When To Use

• At the start of any new conversation
• When context seems missing
• When user asks "what were we working on?"

Instrumentation

# Log usage when using this skill
./scripts/log-skill.sh "session-resume" "manual" "$$"

Quick Resume Checklist

1. Check Active Work

# Ready todos (highest priority)
ls todos/*-ready-*.md 2>/dev/null | head -5

# In-progress plans
ls plans/*.md 2>/dev/null

# Recent solutions (for context)
ls -t docs/solutions/**/*.md 2>/dev/null | head -3

2. Check Recent Git Activity

# Recent commits
git log --oneline -5

# Uncommitted changes
git status --short

3. Summarize Context

After gathering info, summarize:

4. Check System Health

./scripts/compound-dashboard.sh

Review health grade and recommendations before starting work.

5. Final Summary

**Active Work:**
- {X} ready todos waiting
- Plan in progress: {plan name if any}

**Recent Activity:**
