<runtime_note>
This skill is explicit-invocation only (/update-context). It never auto-triggers — disable-model-invocation: true in the frontmatter enforces that, matching /init-project: updating .context/ should be a deliberate action the user asks for, not something that fires on an ambiguous cue.
</runtime_note>
This project uses a .context/ directory (created by /init-project) to
carry state across sessions. Delegate the full update to the
context-updater subagent (defined in ~/.claude/agents/) to bring it up
to date now.
1. Setup Check
if [ ! -f .context/STATE.md ]; then
echo "NOT_INITIALIZED"
fi
If .context/ doesn't exist in this project at all, say so plainly and stop
— don't create it. .context/ is only created by /init-project; this
skill updates it, it doesn't initialize it.
2. Delegate
Spawn the context-updater subagent. Do not read git history or the
.context/ files yourself in this conversation — the whole point of
delegating is to keep this session's context window from absorbing the git
log and four files. The subagent reads and writes STATE.md, DECISIONS.md,
and ROADMAP.md (if present) directly.
3. Report
Report the subagent's summary back to the user as-is. That summary may
include a feature-status line (e.g. a feature in flight or recently passed
review) alongside the usual STATE.md/DECISIONS.md/ROADMAP.md lines — pass
it through unchanged.
