SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It provides a reliable way to create thorough, structured summaries of conversations and coding sessions, preserving technical details, code changes, errors, and pending tasks so work can be handed off or revisited without losing context.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Two‑Phase Output: Generates a private <analysis> scratchpad and a public <summary> artifact.
  • Rich Schema: Captures requests, technical concepts, files, errors, problem solving, pending tasks, and next steps with verbatim quotes.
  • Scope Variants: Supports full, partial, and up‑to‑date summarizations adaptable to retained context.
  • Anti‑Drift Rules: Ensures summaries remain accurate and prevent task drift.
  • Customization: Allows project‑specific overrides via user-config.md.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate a session summary for handoff without losing code context?

Generate a session summary by capturing requests, code snippets, errors, and pending tasks into a structured artifact. This preserves technical details and decisions so work can be revisited or handed off without losing context.

What is the best way to compact conversation context for coding sessions?

Compacting conversation context involves summarizing multiple messages into structured artifacts with verbatim quotes, problem-solving steps, and next steps. This prevents task drift and maintains accuracy across retained context.

How do I create handoff notes that include code changes and pending tasks?

Create handoff notes by summarizing the conversation session into a structured format that explicitly includes code snippets, errors encountered, decisions made, and pending tasks for the next developer.

Can I customize the summarization schema for project-specific session handoffs?

Yes, you can customize the summarization schema by providing project-specific overrides via a user-config.md file, allowing adaptation to retained context and specific workflow requirements.

What are the limitations of automated conversation summarization for code sessions?

Automated summarization relies on anti-drift rules to maintain accuracy but operates without invoking external tools, meaning it captures only what exists in the conversation context without fetching additional external data.

Does session summarization work for partial conversation recaps?

Yes, session summarization supports full, partial, and up-to-date recap variants, making it adaptable to different levels of retained context within ongoing coding workflows.
