| description | Launch a Scout consolidation session as a background process. Runs a lighter delta scan — captures what changed since the last run and updates action items and KB. |
Launch a SCOUT consolidation session as a background process on this machine.
This runs the same script as the briefing but mode is auto-detected from the current hour. If run outside the normal schedule times (8 AM, 11 AM, 1 PM, 5 PM), it defaults to consolidation mode if today's action items already exist, or morning briefing if they don't.
Do the following steps:
-
Run nohup bash ~/Scout/run-scout.sh > /dev/null 2>&1 & to launch the session in the background. Capture the PID.
-
Find the most recent log file: ls -t ~/Scout/.scout-logs/scout-*.log | head -1
-
Report to the user:
- Confirm the consolidation session is running and show the PID
- Show the log file path so they can tail it if they want:
tail -f <log_file>
- Remind them that consolidation runs are lighter than morning briefings — they scan for deltas since the last run (new Slack messages, new calendar events, email sent, GitHub PRs) and update the existing action items file and KB accordingly.
