| description | Recall project context and present structured readback. Use when the user asks 'do you remember?', at session start, or when context seems lost. |
Recall project context and present a structured readback.
When to Use
- When the user asks "Do you remember?", "What were we working on?"
- At the start of a session to pick up where you left off
- When context seems lost or stale
Process
Do this FIRST (silently):
- Read TASKS.md, DECISIONS.md, and LEARNINGS.md from the context directory
- Read the latest handover under
.context/handovers/ if present.
Filenames are timestamped <TS>-<slug>.md; the lexicographically
last is the newest. Its ## Summary and ## Next Session sections
are the authoritative recall surface — this is the previous
session's note to this one.
- If
.context/ingest/closeouts/ exists, list closeouts whose
generated-at postdates the handover's generated-at and read
their ## What Changed sections. These are per-pass audit notes
the previous wrap-up did not get a chance to fold. Read-only;
/ctx-remember does not run any editorial pass.
- Check recent session history (for example via
.context/sessions/ or ctx journal source --limit 5 when available)
- Run
ctx agent for the full context packet
Then respond with a structured readback:
- Last session: cite the most recent session topic and date
- Active work: list pending or in-progress tasks
- Recent context: mention 1-2 recent decisions or learnings
