Resume - Restore Context After a Break
The user is back from a break. Your job: get them oriented fast so they don't have to mentally reload.
Steps
-
Read the context snapshot from ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA:-~/.local/share/breather}/last-context.md. If the file doesn't exist, skip to step 3 and instead say: "No saved context from a previous pause. What are you picking up today?"
-
Read session state from ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA:-~/.local/share/breather}/current-session.json to check how the session is going.
-
Welcome them back briefly:
Welcome back. Here's where you left off:
Working on: [what they were doing]
Left off at: [specific point]
Next step: [what to do next]
[Any open questions from before the break]
Ready to pick up?
Keep it scannable - bullet points or bold labels. They need to reload context, not read prose.
-
Archive the context snapshot so calling /back twice doesn't show stale context:
mv "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA:-~/.local/share/breather}/last-context.md" "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA:-~/.local/share/breather}/last-context.md.used"
-
Do NOT ask how their break was, comment on how long they were gone, or add any wellness messaging. They're in work mode now. Respect that.
