Phase Documenter

Phase Documenter automatically generates structured summaries in IMPROVEMENTS.md after completing development phases. It captures tasks completed, commits made, lessons learned, patterns emerged, and follow-up items, preserving insights for future reference and preventing repeated mistakes across sessions.

Document the phase identifier, phase goal, all tasks completed, associated commits, key lessons learned, successful patterns, metrics, and unresolved follow-ups. Phase Documenter extracts commits via git log and structures everything into a template-based IMPROVEMENTS.md entry for continuous self-improvement.

Invoke phase documentation at end-of-phase wrap-ups, before committing major changes, or when explicitly requesting phase summaries. It works best after completing feature milestones or project phases when insights are fresh and context is clearest.

Yes. Phase Documenter integrates with git by identifying commits via git log during phase wrap-ups. It requires no external dependencies or additional components, fitting into existing development processes and pre-commit review stages.
