SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

View and manage accumulated session learnings recorded by the Stop hook chronicle across Magician sessions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Chronicle storage: Each session is saved as a JSON file under ~/.local/share/magician/chronicle/, one file per session.
  • View and read: Quickly view a list of recent sessions with commands like ls -t ~/.local/share/magician/chronicle/*.json | head -10 and read a specific session with Python:
python3 -c "import json; d=json.load(open('<path>')); print(json.dumps(d, indent=2))"
  • Summaries and filtering: Retrieve concise session summaries and filter by date or branch to analyze progress.
  • Maintenance: Clear old chronicles using a safe script to delete entries older than a configurable window.

Quick Start

Ask Magician to show the latest chronicle entries and summaries.
