conclude

Scan for loose ends before closing the session. Report findings. Never act without confirmation.

If nothing is found: print All clear. Session closed. and stop.

---

Step 1: Read the session

Scan the conversation for:

• Files created or modified
• Tasks or tickets mentioned or worked on
• People or teams affected by changes
• Anything explicitly deferred, delegated, or left pending

Only run checks that have surface area in this session. Skip the rest.

---

Step 2: Checks

D: Documentation

D1: Frontmatter — for each file with --- block: required fields present, no duplicate keys, values match the body.

D2: Parent index — if a new file or directory was created, does the parent CLAUDE.md reference it?

D3: Open checklist items

grep -rn "\- \[ \]" <files-modified-this-session>

[ ] = open, [~] = deferred, [x] = done. Flag open ones.

D4: Runbook gap — if a non-obvious problem was resolved: are there notes on what to do when it recurs?

D5: Context-to-persistence gap — scan for things that exist only in this conversation and were never written down:

• Decisions made ("we'll use X", "decided Y")
• Naming conventions or patterns established mid-session
• Hypotheses ruled out that would waste time to re-investigate
• Command outputs that revealed useful facts
• Delegations to other people

Flag anything with no corresponding record outside the conversation. Ask if unsure whether it was already persisted elsewhere.

---

M: Memory

M1: Unsaved insights — non-obvious solutions, new conventions, corrections to previous assumptions found this session but not in MEMORY.md. Ask before saving.

M2: Stale memory — if a finding this session contradicts an existing memory entry, flag it for update or removal.

---

G: Git

G1: Uncommitted changes

git status

Flag modified or untracked files in repos touched this session. Ask if it's unclear whether to commit now.

---

N: Notifications

N1: Notification gap — people or teams affected by changes who weren't notified. Ask if unsure whether notification already happened outside the conversation.

---

Step 3: Report

## conclude · session review [YYYY-MM-DD]

| # | Category | Status | Finding |
|---|----------|--------|---------|
| D3 | Documentation | open | README.md: 1 unchecked item: "[ ] Update env vars" |
| M1 | Memory | open | New convention established (resolved- prefix): not yet saved |
| G1 | Git | open | rules/git.md: uncommitted changes |
| N1 | Notifications | clean | Team already notified via PR comment |

Status: open (needs action) · clean (nothing to do) · FIXED (resolved during this session)

Closing line:

• All clean → All clear. Session closed.
• Open items → Session review complete. X item(s) require attention.

---

Step 4: Resolve

Go finding by finding. For clear fixes: propose in one line, execute after inline confirm. For judgment calls: ask with specific options. Never batch.

Confirm Session closed. after all findings are resolved.
