FAQPage Schema
How do I get a session briefing for active features and remaining work?▼

A session briefing summarizes active features, progress, and suggested focus. You request it at session start or during planning to align on what to tackle next and avoid context switching.

What is the best way to track sprint progress across multiple plans?▼

Track sprint progress by counting completion per phase across all plans. The briefing computes overall progress and highlights the first incomplete phase to guide your immediate next steps.

How does plan discovery work for session planning summaries?▼

Plan discovery works by globbing .specs/plans/*.md files. The briefing scans these files to identify which plans are in progress, counts phase completion, and skips fully complete plans.

Can I use this session briefing to identify what to prioritize next?▼

Yes, the briefing identifies the first incomplete phase as a cursor to suggest focus. It surfaces what is currently in flight and highlights the exact next step to prioritize during your sprint.

Do I need any external dependencies to generate a session status overview?▼

No external dependencies are required. The briefing operates independently by reading your local .specs/plans/*.md files to summarize active features and compute phase completion automatically.
