description	Recover main-agent context after `/clear`, `/compact`, or lost local thread state by using `csa recall` against recorded Claude main sessions.

Recall

Use this skill when you need to recover recent main-agent context without dumping an entire thread into the current session.

When to use

• After /clear or /compact when the current agent lost conversational context
• When you need to inspect what the main Claude thread was discussing
• When you want a targeted search over the most recent main-agent session

Commands

csa recall list --limit 10
csa recall read latest
csa recall read 3 | tail -100
csa recall read <session-id> | rg "keyword"
csa recall search "keyword"

Safe patterns

• Start with csa recall list to pick the right session.
• Prefer csa recall read <selector> | tail -100 for large threads.
• Prefer csa recall search "term" before reading the full markdown.
• Treat numeric selectors as 1-based history indexes: 1 is the most recent session.

Safety warnings

• Never paste a full recalled session back into the active prompt unless strictly necessary.
• Never run csa recall read latest unbounded on a large session; use tail, rg, or both.
• If csa recall read prints OUTPUT_TOO_LARGE, narrow the view instead of retrying the full dump.
